Chapter 286 If the technology industry wants to make big money, it must innovate
Just as Su Cheng was taking his new love back to the hotel, his attention shifted to Yang Chaoye in New York.
During this period, the customer flow of Oracle Experience Store has continued to be hot, so Yang Chaoye discusses how to improve with each store manager every day, and is very busy at work.
By October 10th, the heat finally subsided.
As of today, October 13th, Yang Chaoye is also preparing to leave New York, because here, he has finished his work.
A few days ago, he took the time to chat with the boss of Hawker Beechcraft Aircraft Company, and finally purchased a luxurious business jet, the Hawker Beechcraft 700 Series, for US$5.8 million.
Yang Chaoye reported this matter to Su Cheng in time.
Hearing the price, Su Cheng was a little surprised. Is the price of luxury business jets so low?
Originally, he thought that buying such a luxury business jet would cost at least 20 to 30 million US dollars!
The Hawker Beechcraft 700 series has a range of nearly 4,000 kilometers, which means that if you fly this aircraft back to Xiangjiang, you will need to make two stops along the way.
However, this doesn’t matter. When Su City flew from Xiangjiang to New York, didn’t the university passenger plane have to stop at Jingdong International Airport?
Although the ultra-long range Boeing 747 has been released, its high price has not made it popular.
Buying a Boeing 747 is completely unnecessary. Spending hundreds of millions of dollars on an aircraft that is of little use is a waste of money.
While other aircraft have a basic range of only a few thousand kilometers, the Hawker Beechcraft 700 series has a range of about 4,000 kilometers, which is already very good.
Most importantly, it sits comfortably.
In the future, whether it is Zhang Qizheng, Yang Chaoye or Wei Li, they can take this plane when they need to travel on business, especially when going to Japan, South Korea, Southeast Asia and other places. It is the most suitable, regardless of safety. , comfort, privacy, etc., have all been comprehensively improved.
For $5.8 million, it’s totally worth it.
Of course, it will definitely cost a lot to maintain the aircraft in the later stage, such as hiring flight attendants, pilots, etc., but these are nothing to Sioux City.
There is nothing that money cannot solve.
After settling everything, Yang Chaoye flew directly to Los Angeles on his newly purchased private jet.
In this era, it is relatively easy to apply for a route, and with the help of the owner of Hawker Beechcraft Company, the pilot successfully hired two experienced pilots.
Of course, this is temporary. After returning to Xiangjiang, we will recruit new drivers there. After all, the ones there will be more reliable.
It was already early in the morning when the plane landed at Los Angeles International Airport.
At this time, Su Cheng had already fallen asleep holding Meg Ryan, his new love.
As Meg Ryan said, she is still intact, which is a surprise to Su Cheng.
The next morning, when Su Cheng woke up, he received a call from Yang Chaoye.
When I found out he was coming to Los Angeles, I asked a driver to drive to Los Angeles to pick him up.
After experiencing sex for the first time, Meg Ryan almost didn't want to get out of bed.
Su Cheng was so strong that she, a girl who had experienced this kind of thing for the first time, almost couldn't bear it last night. Therefore, Su Cheng simply let her rest in the hotel today. Anyway, the waiter could bring everything to her with just a phone call.
As for Su City, a presidential suite was opened for Yang Chaoye in the hotel.
I have worked hard for him during this period, and I must entertain him well.
If Yang Chaoye wasn't a bit old and might not be able to bear it, Su Cheng would have planned to find some Hollywood female stars to accompany him.
"Mr. Yang, it's been a long time no see. I've worked hard for you during this time." Su Cheng said seriously after the two sat down on the chairs in the rest area of the presidential suite opened by Su City for Yang Chaoye.
Speaking of which, Su Cheng and Yang Chaoye haven’t seen each other for a week.
"This is all my responsibility. When I receive this salary and hold this position, I have to do what I should do." Yang Chaoye replied with a smile.
"Tell me about this period of time." Su Cheng opened a bottle of mineral water and drank half of the bottle.
Although they talked on the phone during the process, after all, many things could not be explained clearly on the phone, so they generally did not talk too much.
And because there are no mobile phones, it is difficult to find the other party at any time.
“During this period, the 10 Oracle brand experience stores have been very successful. As the popularity of Oracle computers has remained high, Oracle brand experience stores have naturally become the biggest beneficiaries.
Before I left yesterday, I went to the Oracle brand experience store in New York. Although there were not as many people there, there were still a lot of customers rushing to try out Oracle computers.
As of yesterday, October 13th, our Oracle brand experience store has been open for a week.
In the first three days of this week, the sales of our 10 experience stores exceeded US$100 million every day, and in the next four days, the sales exceeded US$50 million, which was better than we expected. Even better.
In seven days, our turnover has exceeded 500 million US dollars, of which the deposit for Oracle computers accounted for nearly 200 million US dollars. The number of Oracle computer reservations has reached more than 120,000 units; Other products in the experience store benefit even more. Almost every day, the small warehouses of each experience store have to replenish goods from the large warehouses, and the factories in Xiangjiang are also urgently delivering goods to various warehouses!
I don’t have the specific data, because I left New York on a plane yesterday evening. I will ask the Oracle Brand Chain Company for the information later, and I will give you a copy later. ”
In one go, Yang Chaoye said a lot.
Hearing Yang Chaoye's words, Su Cheng was also very surprised. He did not expect that the results of the experience store could be as good as this and could be so sustainable.
Oracle Brand Chain Company is a joint venture between Su Group and Hutchison Whampoa Group, each holding 50% of the shares, mainly to manage the funds of the two groups in the experience stores.
However, to Su City, it doesn’t matter how they do it. After all, these two groups are now private companies in Su City.
The Hutchison Whampoa Group has completely withdrawn from the stock market, and the last step of privatization has been completed. In other words, Hutchison Whampoa from now on will completely belong to Sioux City's personal enterprise.
"Sure enough, if the technology industry wants to make big money, it must innovate!" Su Cheng said with emotion.
“Yeah, by the way, boss, I have one more thing to tell you. Didn’t those companies join forces to sue us to the House of Representatives in the beautiful House of Representatives? Now it’s basically settled, because of the support of those 11 companies. "Under the circumstances, those companies can't afford to make any trouble at all. The goodwill expressed by these 11 companies is quite good, and we owe them a favor," Yang Chaoye continued.
