In 1975, the Concorde, which can reach twice the speed of sound, was officially put into use. At that time, people had already enjoyed the supersonic passenger plane of 2,150 kilometers per hour.
Now, it takes nearly two hours to fly from Yanjing to Jinling, but if you take the Concorde, it only takes 25 minutes.
It is a pity that although this aircraft is extremely fast, its fuel economy is extremely poor, so with the advent of the economic crisis and a serious flight accident, this aircraft withdrew from the civil aviation stage in 2003 and has since disappeared from the world , today, most people don't even remember the existence of this aircraft, but there are still a few of this aircraft that have been well preserved.
Moreover, without exception, all of them have become exclusive cars for the top rich.
Ye Chen's grandfather Ye Zhongquan had one.
His Concorde bought it and spent a lot of money on remodeling and maintenance. Up to now, it still costs tens of millions of dollars in basic maintenance costs every year.
However, Ye Zhongquan spent so much money on this plane, but it is difficult for him to fly once a year.
However, to the top big families, this kind of aircraft is equivalent to the nuclear weapons of a big country. It can be kept in storage for a few years or even decades, but it can be put into use immediately if there is a major event.
That's why Chen Zekai thought of this method. As long as Ye Zhongquan is willing to lend this Concorde to Ye Chen, it will be no problem to send Ye Chen to Syria within four and a half hours!
It's just that Ye Zhongquan attaches great importance to this plane. Except for himself, he has never used it for anyone, even his children, who have no chance to use this plane.
As for Chen Zekai, he was just a spokesperson for the Ye family in Jinling, and he couldn't even get in touch with Ye Zhongquan directly, so Ye Chen could only discuss this matter with Ye Zhongquan himself.
Ye Chen was instantly awakened by his words.
He couldn't hide his excitement and blurted out: "Great! If there is a Concorde, it can save more than half of the time!"
As he spoke, he immediately took out his mobile phone and said, "I'll call him right now, and I will borrow this plane no matter what!"
Chen Zekai said with some concern: "Master, it is said that your grandpa is very precious to this plane, so far he has never borrowed it, nor let anyone else use it. I am worried that he will not be willing to lend it to you.
Ye Chen said in a deep voice: "No matter what, let's make a phone call first and try it out!
After finishing speaking, he called his grandfather Ye Zhongquan.
The phone rang twice and was immediately connected.
Ye Zhongquan asked happily: Chen'er, why did you remember to call grandpa today?
Ye Chen got straight to the point and said, "I have something I want to ask you for help."
Ye Zhongquan said without hesitation: "Oh, what kind of politeness do you have with grandpa? You can talk about anything, as long as grandpa can do it, it will be unambiguous!"
Ye Chen said: "I have something urgent, I want to go to Lebanon immediately, I heard that you have a Concorde, I want to borrow it.
"Borrow Xiehe?" Ye Zhongquan hesitated for a while, and said with a smile after a while: "Chen'er, in fact, if you want to borrow a private jet, grandpa has a very, very luxurious Boeing business jet. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a palace in the sky, how about I lend you that plane?"
Ye Chen said firmly: "No, I only borrow Xiehe.
Ye Zhongquan sighed, and said: "Oh, that plane is really old. It was manufactured in 1985. To be honest, it is much older than you. You also know that the older the plane, the less Safety."
Ye Chen didn't expect Ye Zhongquan to play Tai Chi with him here, so he couldn't help it, and blurted out: "It's okay if you don't want to lend me the Concorde, but you must at least lend me one that can make my four Within an hour and a half, the plane flew from Jinling to Lebanon.
"This Ye Zhongquan said in embarrassment: "The requirement of 4 and a half hours is too high, can you be a little more relaxed? ".
Ye Chen asked him back: "If you can borrow it, you can give me a good word. If you can't, then I won't force others.
Speaking of this, Ye Chen said coldly: "However, I may have to reconsider the matter of the ancestor worship ceremony. In addition, I think that since it is such a troublesome thing to borrow a plane, I will not bother in the future." Ye family."
When Ye Zhongquan heard this, he gritted his teeth and said without hesitation: "Oh, Chen'er, don't be impulsive! Isn't it just to borrow a plane? Grandpa will lend it to you! I will let the crew prepare and fly directly to Jinling! I have two The two flight crews have been on standby at the airport, ready to take off at any time! Are you satisfied now? JrNovels.com
