Rebirth of India: Superior

"Hey, you are still a cool boy. During this period, you are from China, the United States, Mexico and South Africa. I am so envious of you." As the disaster situation stabilized, Shakru and Mukesh ran away The rich people who were escaping from the disaster abroad gradually returned to India. On this day in Shakru's villa, Mukesh sighed with envy after hearing Shakru's recent experience.

"I am just messing around with no business, unlike you, brother, who has to worry about the company's affairs all day long. Otherwise, even if you travel around the world, wouldn't it be just a small amount of money for you." Shaklu comforted. Mukesh said.

Mukesh shook his head and replied: "This is not about money. Now that the old man's health is getting worse and worse, and there is no heir designated, how can I dare to leave casually. Forget it, don't talk about this, let's change the topic. Yes. Well, little Shakru, since you’ve been running around all day, why not just buy a plane yourself.”

"What? Buy a plane? But I seem to have heard that helicopters are strictly controlled in China." Shakru said helplessly. In fact, due to the poor traffic conditions in New Delhi (detailed description in Chapter 3), he has long wanted to buy a helicopter. However, since New Delhi is the capital, helicopters are extremely strictly controlled. In fact, no matter where the helicopter is, In the capital of any country, helicopter control is very strict.

Mukesh smiled disdainfully and said: "Helicopter? Oh my God, Shakru, you are also a billionaire, can you pursue it? If we want to buy one, we have to buy a jet business aircraft."

"Business jet? How much does it cost?" To be honest, Shakru has never thought about buying a business jet, because in his opinion, such a big guy is not something he can afford.

It's just that Shakru hasn't realized that with his current net worth, although he can't afford a luxury private jet worth hundreds of millions of dollars like the one Bill Gates flies on, he can still afford ordinary business jets.

Because it only took less than two years for Shakru to go from being penniless to having a net worth of over 100 million, his values ​​and consumption outlook have not yet reached the cognitive height of this level of rich people. But in fact, in Hong Kong and other places, many wealthy people own their own private jets and luxury yachts. Owning a private jet will not only make your business activities faster and more convenient, but more often than not, it is also an act of showing your identity. (It is said that the Sailing Hotel in Dubai will not accept you at all if you don’t have a private plane, because there is only a helipad and no parking lot)

In fact, many top rich people in India have their own private jets. Mukesh’s family has a Legacy business jet. When he saw that Shakru was a little moved, he advised: "A normal private jet is A few million dollars, if the performance is relatively good, 10 to 20 million dollars is enough.”

"What? You can buy a jet business aircraft for just a few million dollars?" This price made Shakru very excited, because his current liquidity is about 30 million U.S. dollars, and whether it is Both pharmaceutical companies and Infosys have stable and sustained profits, not to mention that after the Asian financial crisis two years ago, he is confident enough to double or triple his assets, so now he spends several hundred Ten thousand dollars is really no burden.

"Yes, then how expensive do you think a plane can be? But then again, the maintenance cost of this thing is quite high. Many people can afford it but cannot afford to maintain it. You know, an ordinary private plane lasts for one year The maintenance cost is more than 100,000 US dollars, and domestic general aviation airports are very limited, and the parking fee The cost of operating and taking off and landing the aircraft is very high, at least 50,000 to 60,000 US dollars a year, not counting the salary expenses of the pilot and flight attendants. Anyway, after five or six years, the maintenance and repair of this aircraft will be calculated. The cost is enough to buy a new one," Mukesh helped Shakru analyze each item.

After listening to Mukesh's calculations, Shakru secretly laughed in his heart. This amount of money is indeed a huge expense for a businessman doing traditional business, but he does not need much working capital, and after two or three years, the capital will be It can still rise sharply, so there is no need to worry about this.

So Shaklu pretended to ponder for a moment, and then said: "It's okay, I can still afford the money, so please help me find out if there are any more cost-effective models."

It must be said that Mukesh's work efficiency is extremely high. The next day he found Shakru and told him: "There are two models now, which I think are more suitable for you. One is from the American Raytheon Aircraft Company The Prime Minister One business private jet produced costs about US$6 million and has a cruising speed of up to 835 kilometers per hour. It is the fastest light business jet in the world, but the space is a bit small, with only five or six seats.

Another Hawker 800xp business jet is also manufactured by Raytheon Company, but its performance, range and number of passengers are much better than Prime Minister 1. Of course, the price is also much more expensive, about 10 million US dollars. Here are the specific data and analysis of the two aircraft. Take a closer look and then make a decision. By the way, if you really want to buy it, I can help you solve the route problem. I have an uncle who is in charge of this. "

Mukesh's last sentence actually helped Shakru a lot, because the main reason why many rich people don't buy private jets is not the problem of money, but the trouble of air traffic. Because according to relevant domestic regulations, if a privately registered aircraft wants to fly, it must apply for a route ten days in advance, otherwise it will not be allowed to take off.

However, business activities are often decided on at the last minute, or even emergencies. No one can plan their future affairs in such detail. In this way, it is not as convenient to take a domestic flight as to take your own private jet, so many people give up the idea of ​​buying a private jet.

ps: After more than a week, I finally completed the ten chapters of the "Fallen Angel" leader. Next is the two chapters of "Xing'er" and the three helmsmen of "Actually I still don't know", "Henan Old Man", and "Mi z731". Don't worry, as long as I promise, I will definitely do it, and all of them are based on two updates every day, so please continue to reward and strive to make the reward and update uninterrupted! (Especially the seven deacons, they are only one or two thousand, two or three thousand fans away from becoming the helmsman, why don't they just strive for one more chapter?)
