Ye Chen didn't meet Gu Yanzhong, but he just felt that it was a bit expensive for him to suddenly give him a private jet.
And this is not an ordinary small private jet worth tens of millions or one or two hundred million, this is a private jet modified from a Boeing 737 passenger aircraft.
The ex-factory price of a Boeing 737 ordinary passenger plane is about 100 million US dollars, but this is just an ordinary passenger plane. For private jets, ordinary passenger planes are equivalent to rough houses, and the cost of transformation and decoration of this rough houses is
, accounting for at least half of the total value.
If you calculate it this way, the value of this plane alone must be around one billion yuan.
For his birthday, Ye Chen felt a little ashamed to receive such an expensive gift.
Gu Yanzhong saw that he seemed hesitant, so he stepped forward and put his arms around his shoulders, and said seriously: "Chen'er, in my mind, Gu Yanzhong, you are just like my son. You also have your own career now, and you often need to be there
Flying back and forth across the country or even the world, having your own private jet will be a lot more convenient for you."
Ye Chen said seriously: "Uncle Gu, actually the Ye family also has a spare private jet in Jinling, which is generally enough for me to use. I really don't want you to spend too much money."
Gu Yanzhong said with a very firm expression: "The Ye family's private jet belongs to the Ye family, and the jet that your uncle gave you is your own. Can using your own things feel the same as using other people's things? Besides, you are now with
The relationship between the Ye family is not a clear one. If one day you and your grandfather have a quarrel, wouldn't you be a dwarf if you use his plane at that time?"
After saying that, Gu Yanzhong said again: "Besides, why are you and uncle so polite? It's just a plane, at best it's only 1 billion. I'm considered a person who almost died once. I have so much money and no place to spend it.
It’s also very painful.”
Lin Wanqiu on the side also hurriedly agreed: "Yes, Chen'er, just accept it happily. Don't look back. Your Uncle Gu is so old and has to beg you to accept it when he gives you a birthday gift."
When Ye Chen heard this, he immediately realized that he was indeed a little too outsider.
The more expensive the gift, the more it means that Uncle Gu and his wife value him. If he continues to shirk it, it will hurt their feelings.
So he immediately nodded and said: "Thank you Uncle Gu, thank you Aunt Lin. From now on, I, Ye Chen, will also have a private jet!"
When Gu Yanzhong heard this, he immediately laughed. He put his big hand on Ye Chen's shoulder and shook it vigorously. He said with a smile: "Let's go! Let's go to the hotel!"
Ye Chen invited Gu Yanzhong and his wife to sit in the back seat of his BMW 760, and then opened the passenger door for Gu Qiuyi. Before finally getting into the car, he told Chen Zekai: "Old Chen, let your car go in front.
Open the way, let's go directly to Tianxiang Mansion now."
Ye Chen had already agreed with Hong Wu before that he would entertain important guests at Tianxiang Mansion today, so the entire Tianxiang Mansion was closed to the public today.
Hong Wu also put aside everything he was doing and came to Tianxiang Mansion early in the morning to supervise the work.
From the security work and service procedures of the entire Tianxiang Mansion to every dish to be prepared today, the freshness of the raw materials and whether every piece of tableware was cleaned, Hong Wu basically checked everything in detail more than once in advance.
When Chen Zekai led the way and led Ye Chen out of the airport, Chen Zekai had already informed Hong Wu of the news.
Hong Wu immediately asked all the service staff to line up in the parking lot at the entrance of Tianxiang Mansion to prepare for the welcome. At the same time, he also ordered many young men to guard both sides of the entrance and asked them not to let in any other people.
After all, Gu Qiuyi, who was traveling with Ye Chen, is one of the most popular celebrities in the country today. If the incident of her dining at Tianxiang Mansion was revealed, she would be on the gossip news immediately. Hong Wu was extremely loyal to Ye Chen, so naturally he wouldn't
willing
Leave no hidden dangers to Ye Chen.
When the motorcade drove into the parking lot, Hong Wu led a group of waiters and waited at the door.
As soon as Ye Chen parked the car, he took the lead to step forward, opened the two rear doors and the passenger door, and said politely to Gu Yanzhong, his wife and Gu Qiuyi: "Welcome to Tianxiang Mansion, three distinguished guests!
"
Then he opened the main door and said to Ye Chen: "Master Ye, the box is ready. Let's go in now."
Ye Chen nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
"It should!"
Chen Zekai got out of the car at this time and said to Ye Chen: "Master, I'm waiting at the door. If you need anything, you can give me any instructions."
Ye Chen said hurriedly: "Why are you waiting stupidly at the door and let Hong Wu arrange it? You guys find a private room to sit down and have something to eat. I will go over and have a drink with you later."
Hong Wu quickly said: "Okay, Master Ye, take care of it for me!"
When Chen Zekai heard this, he was really moved. At any time, Ye Chen would think in his heart that his subordinates like him and Hong Wu were indeed much better than ordinary wealthy young masters!
So, he said respectfully: "Everything will follow the young master's arrangements!"
Ye Chen nodded, and Hong Wu said: "Master Ye, the four of you, please come with me first!"
Afterwards, the four of them followed Hong Wu towards the main entrance of Tianxiang Mansion.
Gu Qiuyi thought of the cake and hurriedly said to Hong Wu: "Mr. Hong, the staff will deliver a customized cake in a moment. Please arrange a suitable dining car and help push the cake to the box. This cake is very
It’s precious, so please ask the staff to be careful when arranging all this, so as not to damage the cake, thank you!”
Hong Wu said without hesitation: "Miss Gu, you are so polite. Hong Wu will definitely make arrangements!"
Afterwards, Hong Wu led everyone all the way to the diamond box of Tianxiang Mansion. At this time, the box had been kept extremely clean and tidy, and it would not be an exaggeration to describe it as spotless.
On the huge round table, eight cold dishes have been placed. These eight cold dishes include four meat and four vegetarian dishes, and each dish is made with great care.
In the center of the round table, two bottles of collection-grade Maotai liquor and two bottles of Romanée-Conti red wine worth hundreds of thousands were placed.
There are four sets of exquisite tableware placed on the table. Next to each tableware is a golden copybook with many messages written in very elegant calligraphy.
Hong Wu said to Ye Chen and others: "I have arranged a recipe in advance. The order of serving, ingredients and characteristics of each dish are written on the list. The four distinguished guests can take a look at it and understand it.
, if you have any taboos or any other needs, you can tell me at any time!"
Gu Yanzhong picked up one of the posts and looked at it, exclaiming: "The writing in small regular script is so beautiful! The paper is also very elegant!"
As he spoke, he put the ink under his nose and smelled it, exclaiming: "This ink has a very strong scent. It doesn't smell modern, right?"
Hong Wu couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praised: "Mr. Gu is really discerning. I asked a calligrapher from Jinling to write this character using Hui ink made in the first year of Xuande in the Ming Dynasty."
Gu Yanzhong couldn't help but admire: "Boss Hong is so meticulous and meticulous in his work. I have never seen such good service even in Yanjing!"
Hong Wu said hurriedly: "To tell you the truth, Mr. Gu, I would never be able to do this in Tianxiang Mansion. But today, Master Ye had promised to entertain distinguished guests in advance, so Hong spent more time..."
Gu Yanzhong gave a thumbs up and said with a smile: "Thank you, Mr. Lao Hong, for taking the trouble!"
Hong Wu said respectfully: "Everywhere, I should do everything!"
After saying that, he said to Ye Chen: "Master Ye, Hong will not be here to delay your dinner with the distinguished guests. When the cake arrives, I will deliver it according to the care lady's request. If you have any needs, please call at any time.
I!"
Ye Chen nodded slightly and said to Hong Wu: "Hong Wu, please order someone to prepare three cups of pure water and send them over."
