Chapter 329: Private Airport Asking for a Monthly Pass]
For 55 million U.S. dollars, the other party brought all the procedures and contracts. It is confirmed today, and tomorrow... the plane will be transferred to Chen Mo's name.
"It's too expensive. 50 million. If we sell it, we can sign a contract now..."
Although Cohen said this was the lowest price, Chen Mo still bargained habitually.
The other party is not an intermediary, but a second-hand aircraft sales company, which is equivalent to a second-hand car dealer. The aircraft is already in the other party's name, so there is a possibility of bargaining.
"55 million is the lowest price. You just saw Delta Airlines' evaluation report. This aircraft is worth more than 60 million."
Damn it...
It’s not that Chen Mo doesn’t understand the second-hand market. At this time, in second-hand car dealers, a second-hand Lamborghini that used to sell for 200,000 US dollars can now be bought for 150,000... During the financial crisis, these evaluation reports were impossible to produce.
"In this case, I will take a step back and give you 53 million. If possible, I will close the deal directly. If not, forget it..." There are so many second-hand aircraft for Chen Mo to choose from. You can even buy a brand new Global 8000. There is really no need to stand under a tree.
Hang yourself.
Moreover, the Gulfstream G650er can be purchased through more than one company. Chen Mo had wanted to buy a private jet two months ago, and Moxi could also contact the company and intermediary.
The other party looked at Chen Mo's face and realized that 53 million US dollars should be Chen Mo's bottom line: "Wait a minute, I'll ask the headquarters for instructions."
A few minutes later...the deal was done.
Chen Mo looked at Moxi speechlessly and spread his hands. The price of 53 million US dollars can definitely be reduced, maybe it can be negotiated to less than 50 million US dollars.
Moxi looked embarrassed and glanced at Wade.
Wade looked at the sales director of the second-hand aircraft company with a particularly ugly look on his face. The $55 million he had repeatedly confirmed was the lowest price, and it was impossible to lower the price any more... He didn't think of making a move.
In normal times, the second-hand aircraft company will definitely keep its promise, and it will be as much as it says. But now is not normal...
This aircraft has a custody contract signed with Delta Airlines. The current captain and co-pilot are also employees of Delta Airlines. Delta Airlines can recommend a driver to Chen Mo, or Chen Mo can hire him directly from Delta Airlines.
Temporary driver. The hired temporary driver will be replaced frequently... Chen Mo prefers a more private life, so he decided to recruit a long-term driver.
After signing the contract, the bank has full authority to handle the subsequent procedures until Chen Mo can use the aircraft. After all, there is an agency fee of 2%. The agency fee is used for this...
"Mo, are you planning to hire a captain or a private pilot?" Cohen said on the way back.
After Chen Mo bargained with a few words, the price of the plane was $3 million less. This was considered a mistake on the part of the bank. Now Cohen was very depressed.
"Let's recruit. How much does it cost to recruit a captain and co-pilot per year?"
"In private business jets, the captain and first officer are paid about the same, with an annual salary of about US$100,000. If you recruit through Delta Air Lines, the captain and first officer are also considered employees of Delta Air Lines. The captain and first officer are
You will get two salaries, one paid by you and the other paid by Delta Air Lines. For one year, you need to pay about 200,000 US dollars. As for Delta Air Lines, it only pays their salary symbolically. In fact, it is
The money you spend... The aircraft is hosted under the name of Delta Air Lines, and the fixed fee per year is US$1.5 million. Depending on the frequency of use and flight range, the annual cost of using a Gulfstream G650er is about US$3 million."
The less you use it, the less money you will spend. The more you use it, the more money you will spend... But no matter how little you use it, you will have to spend at least 1.5 million US dollars a year.
Even though 1.5 million U.S. dollars doesn’t seem like much, when converted into RMB, it’s tens of millions.
"By the way, the pilots you recruit are your own employees and are mainly responsible to you. As for the airlines paying their salaries and the staff of the listed airlines, they are mainly to facilitate the arrangement of routes and the management of business jets
.”
"Okay, then hurry up and introduce two captains to me. The ones with rich flying experience will be fine if the price is higher."
"good."
An airplane is not a car. Once an accident occurs, it will be devastating. Chen Mo is not afraid of this because he has a space card, but to ensure the safety of the airplane, it is still necessary to recruit top pilots...
Chen Mo really has no shortage of money. The interest returned to him by the bank in one day is 450,000... There are 365 days in a year, and he can use 10 or more days of interest to finance a plane. This feeling is not too good.
Ai Li and Chen Xiao were playing games at home, and Catherine was also there...Catherine and Conse had already established a relationship, and they were playing games in St. Beni Town.
I went home and dealt with some work matters. Moxi took care of the work at Valley Ranch well, so Chen Mo slowly delegated power to Moxi...
Now, the money earned by Valley Ranch is not as much as Chen Mo’s interest income. But the development potential of Valley Ranch is absolutely huge, so he called Moxi over: “I bought a private jet.”
"Oh?" Moxi nodded blankly.
"Gulfstream G650."
Moxi scratched his head, looking confused...
"Didn't the ranch buy two Bell 206 helicopters and prepare to build an airport...The design of the airport needs to be revised to build an airport that can take off and land the Gulfstream G650."
Moxi scratched his head: "The Gulfstream G650's runway should, probably... need 2 kilometers?"
"You need to find a professional construction company to do it. In addition to the runway, you also need to build a large hangar. There is money in the Valley Ranch account, so you should go and get it done." There is not much money to build a private airport, and you have to run away.
The amount of procedures is scary.
Moxi always had a doubt in his heart, that is, where did Chen Mo suddenly get so much money...
"Boss, where did you make a fortune recently?" Moxi said with a sneer.
Chen Mo smiled: "I made a lot of money. But if you shouldn't ask, don't ask more. Do your job well and spend the money in your account before the tax filing season. You can spend as much as you can.
, look at this Christmas, I will take you on a private jet to go on vacation."
"Hey, thank you boss. What about this year's year-end bonus?"
"You didn't have much performance this year. It's almost the same as last year... not satisfied?"
"No, no, I'm so satisfied." Moxi shook his head repeatedly and chuckled.
This year’s economy is not good, and neither Valley Animal Husbandry nor Valley Ranch can achieve expected profits. Moreover, the prices of beef and mutton on the market have been reduced, and the prices have dropped drastically. At the end of the year, the Dorper sheep raised by Valley Ranch will not be prepared for meat.
Sold in large quantities and plans to continue raising them to produce better meat quality.
This is how running a ranch is. There will always be ups and downs with the market. However, the number of Bright cattle in Valley Ranch has expanded a lot. The number of cows has expanded to 1,410, and it has its own Wagyu breed... Development of Valley Ranch
