Zhang Yan's slightly formal address came from the other end.
Zhou Xing understood immediately.
Zhang Yan should be in a bank, for example, at Nile Crocodile Ventures...the entire company is aware of their relationship.
She will also be a little more casual.
She would only act like this when she was in the bank, facing her colleagues.
He maintained his identity as a bank private secretary without any overstep.
Zhou Xing mentioned it several times, but because Zhang Yan was more insistent, he didn't bother with it anymore and simply let her go.
"What's up?"
Zhou Xing asked with a smile.
"Mr. Zhou, please let us be responsible for contacting you about purchasing a private jet. I have already contacted the person in charge of the professional general aviation company."
Zhang Yan said seriously: "There are Gulfstream, Dassault, Boeing, and Airbus aircraft models to choose from."
Zhou Xing nodded, not surprised by this.
private plane.
When he had this idea, he made a simple inquiry and used his rights as a Centurion Black Gold Card user to ask China Merchants Bank to contact him about a suitable private jet.
He has always been resolute and decisive.
As Zhang Yan's personal secretary, she is naturally responsible for these related matters.
"Except for Dassault, the remaining companies all have aircraft that have just left the factory and are currently parked at the airport. Gulfstream has the largest number...with three." www.bǐqυgetν.℃ǒm
Zhang Yan continued to introduce.
Zhou Xing was slightly surprised: "All of them have planes that have just left the factory?"
As far as he knows.
The ordering process for a private jet is far more complicated than buying a car.
Especially in China, there are many regulations and requirements for the purchase of aircraft, and the national supervision and regulations are very complex.
First, you need to purchase it through a specialized general aviation company.
General aviation companies are more like 4S shops in automobiles.
After they connect with major aircraft manufacturers, users will then purchase from them.
They are not only responsible for the purchase introduction from beginning to end, but also bear the responsibility of completing various procedures.
They then apply for approval in accordance with the procedures stipulated by civil aviation, select the aircraft model and sign the purchase agreement, select optional equipment, prepare for training of crew and management personnel, and the aircraft is delivered and issued with a certificate for use.
Basically, most people's private jets are managed by general aviation companies.
They are responsible for providing professional pilots and crew members, as well as daily maintenance of the aircraft and applying for routes.
Therefore, when purchasing an aircraft, you submit your order through a general aviation company.
According to needs.
Under normal circumstances...aircraft manufacturers will only choose to manufacture aircraft after they have an order.
After all, the value of airplanes is too high.
It is rare that an aircraft is built first and then sold.
Zhang Yan heard Zhou Xing's question, and after understanding it, she immediately began to explain: "It's like this... Under normal circumstances, when purchasing a private jet, the order is submitted first, and then the aircraft manufacturer proceeds.
Produced.”
"But... the time to order an aircraft is too long, it can take half a year or even several years."
"And there are relatively few parts that can be customized... There are not as many options as buying a car."
Zhang Yan paused and continued: "So aircraft manufacturers will choose to produce part of the aircraft in advance for sale. As for the subsequent decoration and private customization, the general aviation company will be responsible for it.
of."
Zhou Xing suddenly realized.
It turns out there is such a thing.
private plane.
Because of its particularity.
It is destined to not provide as many customization options as a car.
Neither the engine nor the shape of the aircraft can be changed.
The only thing that can be customized is to spray your own unique mark on the surface of the aircraft.
Or maybe there are changes to the interior, layout and seats in the cabin.
However, these are ordinary decorations...Domestic general aviation companies can completely handle these.
Unless you are rich enough.
I have special requirements for the aircraft, and I want to lengthen the whole thing...or replace the engine.
Most users do not have such needs. The general aviation company can perfectly complete the decoration they need, so there is no need to specially customize it.
Aircraft manufacturers manufacture aircraft in advance and sell them.
Not only can it greatly shorten the purchase time... but it can also increase some sales.
After all, no one wants to spend such a long time waiting.
"When can I choose a model?"
Zhou Xing is interested and has the stock in stock... If he sees something suitable, he can definitely get it.
Finally, go through the general aviation company to purchase the procedures and decoration.
That means.
It is estimated that it won't be long before he can experience owning his own private jet.
"The General Aviation Company is available at any time and welcomes your arrival. The specific time will be based on your side."
Zhang Yan replied.
"In an hour then."
Zhou Xing glanced at the time and said immediately.
"Okay, I'll make an appointment for you."
Zhang Yan was very familiar with Zhou Xing and had already expected his resolute and resolute personality. There were no surprises at all and she seemed very calm.
"Then I'll rush to the airport first and meet with the person in charge of the general aviation company."
"Um."
The phone call just hung up.
The phone made a 'ding dong' sound.
Open it and take a look.
It was the message from Zhang Yan: "Husband... I am in the bank, surrounded by colleagues. Don't mind."
There was a pitiful expression behind him.
Zhou Xing smiled, replied with an 'ok' expression, then locked the phone screen and put it in his pocket.
"Lao Zhou, do you want to buy a private jet?"
Qin Fen and others immediately surrounded him and looked at Zhou Xing.
Zhou Xing's call just now did not escape them, so they probably understood the meaning.
Zhou Xing nodded: "I'm going to go over and take a look now. I heard that they are all in stock... If there is something suitable, I will place an order directly."
"Trent is inhumane!"
When Qin Fen heard this, he couldn't help but complain.
Chang Wenyu and the others also followed closely and said: "The trenches are inhumane!"
The whole room suddenly became a repeater.
Zhou Xing was a little dumbfounded: "This private jet is not a valuable item, and it's not like you can't afford it."
"We are not as generous as you, Mr. Zhou. Only you and Lao Wang can say so lightly that a private jet is not a valuable thing."
Qin Fen's tone was gloomy.
"Lao Zhou...do you mind if we go and have a look together?"
Chang Wenyu asked with some interest from the side: "Why don't you take us, a bunch of rubbish, to open our eyes?"
"Okay."
Zhou Xing agreed immediately. It didn't matter if they went to buy a private jet.
It just so happened that they were there to refer to and give some advice.
He immediately turned to look at Qin Fen: "Old Qin, are you going?"
"Of course I went."
Qin Fen also grinned: "If I can't afford a private jet, I still have to indulge in Mr. Zhou's glare to satisfy my cravings."
"Get lost."
Zhou Xing waved his hand and said to Qin Fen: "Just in time...I am too lazy to drive. If we all go together, you will drive and take your nanny car."
He was too lazy to drive by himself. There was a ready-made driver, so he didn't use it in vain.
"Why should I drive?"
Qin Fen said speechlessly: "Didn't you buy the plane?"
Even though he said that, Qin Fen still agreed.
Everyone came to the garage immediately.
I got into the black nanny car and headed towards the airport.
