Since they were big customers, Yang Dongxu and his party were naturally introduced to the VIP room. However, they were a little surprised to hear that Yang Dongxu was Chinese and wanted to sell private jet Albon.
After all, China is still a country struggling with food and clothing in the perception of many Westerners. How can anyone afford a private jet? However, in poor Africa, it is said that some chiefs use gold to make toilets. Perhaps the young Oriental in front of me has a good background.
But with the conversation, Albon overturned his previous understanding, especially after getting some other information from the conversation between Yang Dongxu and Natasha, which made him pay more and more attention to the seemingly young Yang Dongxu in front of him.
Especially after Yang Dongxu said that he might be able to purchase a batch of passenger planes, Albon suddenly realized that the Chinese market, which he had never paid attention to, seemed to be prosperous beyond his expectations. He couldn't help but think of his competitors with a faint smile. s face.
"I don't know which type of Airbus you need? Apart from anything else, this Airbus is definitely the best, the best in the world. No one doubts this." An excited Albon There are only three words in my mind at this time - big customers.
Super big customer!
You may only be able to sell one private jet. Although the profit margin is certainly higher than that of a passenger jet, it is only slightly more. How can one make money by selling passenger planes? After all, why should a country’s airlines start with dozens of passenger planes?
"There is no doubt that Airbus is the best passenger aircraft." Yang Dongxu nodded without refuting Albon's words.
Because the other party is not bragging, the current Airbus passenger aircraft is indeed the best in the world, and Boeing and Bombardier need to stand back. Especially in terms of super large passenger aircraft and transport aircraft, Airbus is definitely the No. 1 aircraft now.
"But..." Yang Dongxu changed his tone after the praise, "Airbus is also the most expensive aircraft, and you specialize in passenger aircraft, and in addition to passenger aircraft, I also need a private jet of my own. In this regard Boeing seems to have some advantages."
"No, no, no, sir, you have to understand that Airbus is only expensive because it is good enough. This is the correct order. Airbus also has very rich experience in private jets.
Although there are not as many private jets for sale as Boeing and several other aircraft manufacturers, half of the aircraft of European politicians are provided by Airbus. Even though France has a very famous Air France aircraft manufacturer, the French President’s aircraft is still Used by Airbus.
So many dignitaries choose Airbus for their private jets. I think this is the best proof that Airbus does not belong to anyone when it comes to private jets. "
"But I heard that Gulfstream's performance in the past two years seems to be very good." Yang Dongxu smiled softly.
"What you said is indeed true, but sir, you need to know that Gulfstream has only been established for two years. Although it was acquired through mergers and acquisitions, it has certain technical reserves, engineers and skilled workers, and it also claims to be the best private company. airplane.
But transformation takes time, and experience after the transformation takes even more time to accumulate. Gulfstream is just a young company that has just been established for two years. As a wealthy man, when choosing a private jet, besides luxury, safety is more important. "
"What you say makes sense, but I feel that at the same price, Gulfstream or Boeing are better." Yang Dongxu said with a smile.
"This..." Albon looked at Yang Dongxu and his face suddenly became a little stiff. If Natasha hadn't been sitting next to him and Natasha told him that this guy was a big customer, he would have definitely thought that this guy was here. Looking for trouble.
"Okay, don't waste each other's time anymore. It just so happens that I still have something to discuss with you. Albon gave him a preferential price for the highest membership level." Natasha said.
"Um..." Albon frowned. Obviously, this preferential policy was a bit difficult for him. After all, this was Yang Dongxu's first time buying an airplane, and he was not sure that this preferential policy was worth investing in the young man in front of him. , whether corresponding returns can be obtained.
"He has his own airline in China..." Natasha started to say, but was interrupted by Yang Dongxu before she could finish.
"I am just a shareholder, and the airline belongs to the state." Yang Dongxu declared.
Natasha glanced at him, too lazy to argue: "Your airline will definitely be able to absorb 10 airbuses.
As for private jets, you can choose some already produced passenger jets for modification, so that you can pick up your own jet faster. If you want to customize it, Airbus is definitely confident to meet any of your needs, but it will take some time to wait. .
Or it would be good if you directly buy the aircraft produced by Airbus for those politicians. They are definitely the best technology and the safest equipment. I can guarantee that Airbus will not give you any discounts during production. "
"Ms. Natasha, Airbus's service tenet has always been to put customers first. As long as the terms written in the contract will never be discounted." Before Yang Dongxu could speak, Albon stood up directly.
Although what Natasha said is true, no matter how much or how little there is in that order, there must be something fishy, but as the vice president of Airbus, Albon will definitely stand up to protect Airbus' reputation as soon as possible.
"You just said 10 of them. These are airplanes, not cars. You have to introduce the models, styles and functions of the airplanes to me so I can choose, right?" Yang Dongxu smiled helplessly.
"Then let Albon introduce you, um... Is it okay to borrow your wife for a while?" Natasha said and looked at Zhou Ya, who was holding the child.
"Don't you have something to discuss with me?" Yang Dongxu was stunned for a moment.
"It suddenly occurred to me that there are some things that would be more appropriate to discuss with your wife." Natasha didn't hide it at all.
Yang Dongxu turned his head and glanced at Zhou Ya. Zhou Ya nodded with a smile and threw Xiao Wenchen into his arms, and then the two of them walked out of the room.
Yang Dongxu raised his brows, scratched his head and turned around, "Is she the major shareholder of Airbus? Why does it feel like she can decide a lot of things?"
"Ms. Natasha is an important partner of Airbus." Albon said.
"She bought a lot of planes from Airbus?" Yang Dongxu was curious and confused.
"No, it's a production partner." Albon hesitated before speaking.
"That's it." Yang Dongxu nodded thoughtfully.
Obviously, even though many European countries have never been very happy with the Russian polar bear, the United States has even imposed various blockades on polar bears.
However, Russia, which still has deep technological reserves in some fields, is still very marketable in Europe. Therefore, it is not surprising that Russia and Airbus have some cooperation in aircraft technology. After all, some Russian technologies only look rough, but they are not actually lagging behind. More importantly, they are cheap and durable.
"Let's talk about the aircraft type you need first. I don't know, sir, whether your airline flies short-haul or international long-haul?" Albon adjusted his mentality and asked.
"Domestic short and medium haul, do you have any good aircraft models to recommend?" Yang Dongxu currently owns airline shares mainly in Haina and Sichuan.
Both are domestic airlines and fly short and medium distances. Currently, he has no chance to get involved in international long distances.
"If it's short and medium distance, I recommend the A319. Your country purchased this aircraft in 1999, and the feedback was very good." Albon kept searching for information about China in his mind.
At this time, he couldn't wait to get into the company's database and get a good understanding of the Chinese market. Although he is the vice president of Airbus, he has always been responsible for the business in Europe, and the person in charge of China is another person.
So he only heard about cooperation with China during occasional meetings. It seems that Airbus also cooperated with China to establish a training and support center before this year.
"Oh, let me introduce you." Yang Dongxu obviously had a blank look at the airplane, so he responded casually while wiping his son's saliva.
While Yang Dongxu was listening to Albon's introduction to the aircraft, Zhou Ya and Natasha came to another VIP room of Airbus. Natasha waved her hand, and the staff who brought the tea exited the room.
The two women did not speak immediately, but looked at each other, then sat down facing each other and the room fell into silence. He is no longer holding his son, and he is no longer by Yang Dongxu's side.
The aura of a loving mother and a virtuous wife in Zhou Ya's body gradually became colder and colder, and the aura of the queen in her heart that she had restrained became stronger and stronger. Natasha, who finally looked at her, had to subconsciously Avoid her gaze.
"You are more powerful than I thought. Why did you choose to get married and have children? With your ability, it is possible to create an empire of your own."
"Because I met the best man in the world, and he is more important than the empire you talk about." Zhou Ya said lightly.
This answer stunned Natasha. After all, in her understanding, for a strong woman who can create a business empire, her career is the most important thing to her, and men and family are just accessories.
But seeing Zhou Ya's happy smile when she mentioned Yang Dongxu, Natasha couldn't help but feel jealousy in her heart.
This reaction shocked Natasha and quickly gathered her thoughts: "He is indeed excellent."
This is not a compliment. But although Yang Dongxu usually looks carefree, he has to admit that unknowingly, this carefree boy has grown into a giant.
Whether it's her, that old fox Ivan, or other big guys. Every time I cooperated with this guy, I felt like I was getting a little advantage, but as time went by, I realized that it was Yang Dongxu who made more.
"Thank you." Zhou Ya's cold temperament became lighter, and the smile on her lips was filled with happiness and sweetness. But after thanking her, her face straightened: "What do you want from me?"
"How much do you know about the Gut family?" Natasha asked rhetorically without saying anything directly.
"The first family of Russia, the true uncrowned king."
Zhou Ya's words made Natasha's eyes trance for a moment, as if she was lost in memories, "What you said was in the past. The glory of the Gut family is not what it is now."
"What's happening to the Gut family now?" Zhou Ya asked.
"The current Gut family..." Natasha, who was looking a little dazed, suddenly stopped, her dazed eyes flashing, "You are more powerful than the rumors say."
"What am I like in the rumors?" Zhou Ya asked with a chuckle, as if a high-ranking queen suddenly discovered something slightly interesting.
