Chapter 326 Airborne in Manhattan
“Is this what you asked Lao Wang to do?”
In the VIP lounge of Xinpu International Airport, Wanda’s private jet was undergoing final inspection before flight.
“There are so many real estate developers competing for that piece of land. If I come forward directly, won’t I expose the fact that it has been predetermined?”
After a month of busy work, I finally let the smart driving system enter again. In the fast lane of research and development, the Lushui Industrial Park has also started construction, and 1,450 acres of wasteland by the river has also been acquired by Wanda.
Lu Liang should also keep his promise, accompany Xiao Wang to New York, and try his best to help Panda pass the Nasdaq listing review.
Xiao Wang hesitated and sighed: "Actually, if you come forward to bid, no one dares to say anything."
"Indeed, no one dares to say anything, but it is easy to catch people's tongue. Give someone a handle.”
Lu Liang smiled lightly, Wanda Group has all the qualifications and has reasons to participate in the bidding for this land.
If it is Tianxing Technology, even if it is given the green light, it will take three to five months just to process the land-related qualification documents.
It takes three to five months to apply for qualifications, and then let the Sioux City Land Reform Bureau initiate a bidding, which will waste another one or two months.
After dragging it around, it will take at least half a year or more until the land falls into their hands.
Lu Liang didn’t want to wait, so he cooperated with Wanda to set up a subsidiary specifically for development.
Tianxing Technology holds 90% of the shares, Tianxing Investment holds 9%, and Wanda holds 1%.
The existence of Tianxing Investment is mainly to gather the number of people. The three of them are the gang, and it does not have too deep meaning.
Among them, Wanda is not only responsible for the bidding, but also for the trivial matters after the bidding. After all, there are more than 100 villagers.
Even if Tianxing comes forward to participate in the land auction, it will still have to entrust a third party to handle these matters afterwards.
Simply package it all to Wanda and let them handle these matters. At most, they will have to pay some hard-earned money afterwards.
"Thank you!" Xiao Wang was silent for a long time.
In his opinion, this small favor is insignificant to Wanda and insignificant to Tianxing.
It was not worth it. Lu Liang personally accompanied him to New York to help the panda pass the listing review.
Probably Lu Liang knew that with the current panda, there was no bargaining chip that could make him interested.
So I found a reason just to accompany him to New York to help the panda pass the review.
Lu Liang laughed dumbly. Xiao Wang seemed to have misunderstood something, but he was too lazy to explain.
After chatting for a while, the airport manager came over with a smile on his face and informed: "Mr. Lu, Mr. Wang, the maintenance is over and you can board the plane."
The hosting fee for domestic private jets is very expensive, and is basically charged at 10% of the selling price of the entire aircraft every year.
Take Lao Wang’s Gulfstream G550 as an example. It sells for 320 million yuan, and the annual hosting fee is 32 million yuan.
This is an additional income for the airport, and it can also create more than ten jobs. For the airport, it is the father of the fund.
“Let’s go.”
The listing review team led by Xiao Wang has 11 people, while Lu Liang only has six people.
Basically it was him, Lao Biao, Zhuo Yifan, and three accompanying security personnel.
More than a dozen people took a shuttle bus and came to the corner of the tarmac, where an 80% new Gulfstream G550 was parked.
Launched in 2003, this aircraft is the first ultra-long-range business jet in human history that has a direct flight range from Shanghai to New York.
With a range of 11,986 kilometers and a capacity of carrying 18 passengers, it is also one of the luxury business jets with the longest range, the best performance, the most spacious cabin and the best comfort in China.
“When the pandas are on the market and I have money, I will buy one too.”
Xiao Wang led Lu Liang around and asked with a smile: "Isn't it very handsome?"
He really wanted to buy it. He had everything that could run on the ground and swim in the sea. The only thing missing is the one that flies in the sky.
"It's okay."
Lu Liang smiled, not very interested in these. He had thought about buying them before, just to show off, but now he doesn't feel that he is particularly needed.
Private jets are only suitable for long-distance travel. For example, this time, we flew from the Eastern Hemisphere to the Western Hemisphere, across the Pacific Ocean, and the flight time was as long as 12 hours.
There are lounges, restaurants, bathrooms, and entertainment rooms, which can really kill the boring time during the flight.
If the flight is less than five hours, there is no need. The main thing is not to fly whenever you want, but also to apply for the route in advance. It is better to buy a ticket directly.
As the plane enters the runway, it slowly rises until it enters the relatively stable stratosphere.
Xiao Wang left the only rest room to Lu Liang and ran to proofread the review materials with Long Fei.
This is already the second time it has been submitted for listing review. If it needs to be re-examined, there will be no hope for the third time. "We are not afraid of the second generation losing their fortune, but we are afraid that the second generation will make progress."
Lu Liang couldn't help but laugh. Xiao Wang has indeed changed a lot compared to when they first met.
The main thing is to let him see the hope of success. If he couldn't see it, it would have been ruined long ago.
Lu Liang lay on the bed and scrolled through Douyin for a while, then squinted for a while.
When I wake up, there are still eight hours left.
It was really boring to lie down, so I called Xiao Wang Longfei and found someone to play mahjong and spend the remaining eight hours.
It is strange to say that they set off at noon, flew in the air for 12 hours, and landed at noon.
Even the date is the 12th, it seems like 12 hours were wasted.
Xiao Wang was speechless: "When you go back, you will know what it means to disappear for a day."
He had already been here once last month, and there were still company employees staying here. By the way, all the itinerary for the past few days has been arranged.
A dozen people left the New York airport and went directly to a hotel in the city. Crook and several other city business organizations were also waiting for them there. They were going to attend a dinner tonight.
At the reception banquet specially set up for Lu Liang, the big guys on Wall Street will come over, including the top executives of the exchange.
As long as Lu Liang talks kindly to them, maybe Panda can pass the listing review.
"This kind of treatment, Lao Ma can only do this."
Xiao Wang's eyes were full of envy and his mouth was sour.
Although the richest man this year is Lao Xu, the most internationally influential person in the domestic business community should be Lao Ma.
But unlike Lao Ma who wanted to integrate into Western Capital and become one of them, Western Capital invited Lu Liang to integrate.
“Don’t you see, are you trying to put me on the fire?” Lu Liang squinted his eyes and smiled.
It is not difficult to guess that as long as he goes to the so-called dinner party, he will definitely be featured in a big deal tomorrow.
By then, the listing review of Panda will definitely be extremely smooth.
Third-rate editor, make up some short stories or something.
“No way?” Xiao Wang frowned.
"Don't worry about whether it will happen or not. Just assume that he does for the time being. Stay vigilant, take care of yourself and don't mess around."
Lu Liang smiled and looked out the window. A flat river.
There are no mountains as far as the eye can see, and occasionally there are small groups of tumbleweeds floating by on both sides of the road.
This kind of plant is difficult to see in China, because it can only be born in the landscape of the Great Plains, and even spread to disasters.
Driving more than ten kilometers east, there are more and more high-rise buildings, passing the Statue of Liberty, crossing the Hudson River, and finally reaching the streets of Manhattan.
A jagged building, the hotel booked by Xiao Wang's team is named after the businessman, and it is indeed his hotel.
Located on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, a 68-story skyscraper is also one of the symbols of merchant real estate.
The 58th to 68th floors are the Royal Suites, each with an average usable area of more than 10,000 square feet.
Xiao Wang’s team ordered two sets, one for Xiao Wang and one for Lu Liang.
Xiao Wang settled down early in the morning and came to the door of Lu Liang's room to wait for him.
"Crook and the others are in the cafe on the eighteenth floor."
"Let's go."
In a restaurant full of white faces, the appearance of a few of their Chinese faces seemed very abrupt.
Xiao Wang coughed a few times and said in a resentful tone: "You asked me to take care of myself. You should also pay more attention to yourself."
Lu Liang is a double-standard dog. He just said Telling him to mind his own sex, he ended up looking at those American sweethearts.
"This is different. I look at it with admiration. Even if I try to do it, I can restrain it, but can you?"
Lu Liang smiled, although the foreign girl also I have played it before, but when I come to the foreign girl’s base camp, I still can’t help but look at it a few more times, but it’s just for pure appreciation.
"Haha~~" Xiao Wang turned into a boy with a fake smile.
The assistant on the side promptly informed: "Mr. Wang, Mr. Lu, and Mr. Crook are in box 4."
There are two chapters left in the evening, I have to stand up!
