America's Road to Wealth

After entering September.

A few light rains fell in New York.

After these few light rains, the weather in New York suddenly cooled down.

September 3rd.

New York suburbs,

A private jet at the airport.

David Jones, Assistant Manager, Advanced Customer Services, American Express Bank, New York.

He diligently led Abel and Abel's entourage through the airport.

In this small airport,

At this moment, five aircraft of different sizes, lengths, models, and manufacturers are parked.

last month,

Abel took a trip back to Texas.

Decided to buy my own private jet to facilitate my future business travel.

For some reason, he did not choose those agencies.

He didn’t go to the airline directly, but asked David Jones of American Express to help him.

Unlike buying a villa, David spent half a month.

He found several models that Abel wanted to see, and today was the day that he brought Abel over to see the planes.

On Abel's side, Anne Hathaway has gone to Los Angeles at the end of the month.

She took the two bodyguards arranged for her by Abel, one male and one female, and went to Los Angeles to audition for the heroine of the movie renamed "The Princess Diaries".

This audition is, let alone a sure win.

It’s also a sure thing.

It's not just CAA that's helping with operations.

Michael Ovitz, the original CEO of Disney, also helped find help from his previous connections at Disney.

The "ab Smith Entertainment" company was established just two days ago.

Also with the help of caa,

Got a 20% share of this 30 million investment movie.

There is CAA operation,

With Ovitz’s connections,

In addition, they also brought funds to join the group.

If you still fail to pass the audition, then it will be a shady scene that is even scarier than the shady scene.

Annie went to audition.

Today I will be Jessica and come here with Abel to watch the plane.

"This is a Gulfstream G400.

The last time you went to Texas, sir, you took the same model. "

Standing under a blue-painted Gulfstream G400, David Jones transformed into an aircraft company employee.

He talked freely and introduced the situation of the plane to Abel.

"It is a major improvement and development model developed on the basis of the most successful business jet in history, the Gulfstream IV."

"Using new Rolls-Royce Tay engines, a lengthened fuselage, improved wings and a transparent cockpit."

"The aircraft length is 26.9 meters, the wingspan is 23.7 meters, and the aircraft height is 7.4 meters."

"Empty weight: 16,100 kilograms, maximum takeoff weight: 33,203 kilograms."

"The maximum flight speed is 936 kilometers per hour, and the maximum range is 7,805 kilometers."

"It can fully meet any business trip you have in the country."

Abel has flown on this aircraft many times.

He knew that in the near future, more advanced models such as the Gulfstream G450 and Gulfstream G500 would appear.

But it will be at least two or three years later.

And he wanted it now.

So, he turned around, smiled at Jessica Alba, whose eyes were about to shine when she looked at this beautiful plane, and said:

"I've flown on this plane before. It's a good domestic flight. Do you want to go on it and have a look?"

Jessica wanted to be reserved.

But it’s hard for young girls to stay calm when they see something like a private jet.

She simply let go of her reserve and nodded with a smile, "If it's possible, of course it's good."

Abel smiled, "David. Take Ms. Alba up to have a look."

David Jones bent down slightly and immediately ordered a beautiful female American Express staff member to follow behind him.

This female staff member will take Jessica up to see the plane.

Abel and David Jones looked at the remaining models.

The second plane Abel looked at was a Boeing 747 that looked a bit old.

The Boeing 747 aircraft has appeared as early as the late 1960s.

In the early 1960s, the U.S. Air Force proposed a strategic transport aircraft plan.

It is required to build a giant transport aircraft capable of carrying 750 soldiers, or two tanks, across the Atlantic Ocean.

Boeing lost the bid to Lockheed.

They had no choice but to try to commercialize the giant military transport aircraft and high-performance engines that were already under research.

The attempt succeeded.

The Boeing 747 appeared.

This aircraft has experienced thirty years since its birth.

Over the past thirty years, it has been continuously iterated and updated.

From the earliest 747-100 model to the current most advanced 747-400.

The Boeing 747 has gone through more than six modifications, and its performance has been constantly updated.

Let's put it this way, Boeing was before the 747.

It is just one of the more outstanding aircraft companies in the United States.

The success of the 747 is an important reason why Boeing has become a giant and the number one aircraft company in the United States.

From prototype to full iteration, more than 1,500 aircraft were produced.

Among large aircraft of this size, it is the most produced model.

As soon as I saw this Boeing 747-200, which was a bit old but very large.

Abel felt that this was it.

Because it is big, big means expensive, and expensive means good.

The bigger the body is, the easier it is to build some enjoyable things on it.

"Is this a Boeing 747?" Abel asked David Jones. "It should be an older model, right?"

"Yes." David Jones said: "This is a Boeing 747-200, produced in 1982 and delivered to Sterling Air in 1984.

It was sold to a private company in the United States in 1991 and now belongs to a New York businessman. "

"Too old." Abel commented with a frown.

David quickly said: “It’s just a reference prototype.

If you want, we can get you the latest Boeing 747-400, which is the latest model. "

That's about right. Abel nodded, "I need a Boeing 747-400 and two Gulfstream G400s.

Keep in mind, I want a brand new airframe, with a custom interior. "

In fact, before Jessica Alba saw the plane, Abel already had the idea of ​​buying a Gulfstream G400.

Of the two Gulfstream G400s, one will be placed on the west coast and one on the east coast.

Abel, or those with Abel's permission, could travel on them when necessary.

At the same time, these two planes are also temptations he uses to fetter the "long-term workers."

Be obedient and you will have a private jet at your disposal.

Isn't it more fragrant than the so-called "love"?

The huge Boeing 747-400 will be Abel's palace in the sky.

He plans to use it as his main long-distance travel tool in the future.

Who called it so big?

Big is beautiful, big is good, big is wonderful.

It's like he actually likes Xiong Da more.

Hearing Abel's words, David Jones of American Express Bank was overjoyed.

A brand new Gulfstream G400 costs US$36.68 million including tax.

Counting various personal customizations, the price exceeds 40 million.

Two planes are worth $80 million.

A Boeing 747-400 costs at least US$150 million.

Including private customization, the price is as low as 160 million, and the highest price may be as high as 180 million.

This is a service order with a total price of 240-260 million.

If American Express Bank can win it, the commission and rebates from the aircraft company will be at least tens of millions of dollars.

As a deputy manager who specializes in serving Abel, his commission is at least 500,000 yuan.

It is equivalent to his year's salary under normal circumstances.

How could David be unhappy.

But what Abel said next made David Jones stunned.

"David, are you interested in working for me? Are you interested in making more?"
