Chapter 2040 China's First Virtue
Forstmann did not forget to promote his company's products when explaining his business experience to Duan Yun, and his sales promotion did have some effect. A company's willingness to purchase an aircraft.

But this time, Duan Yun didn't buy an airplane for himself, but wanted to buy an airplane in the name of the American branch for use by Li Yun and his company's executives, because before that, Duan Yun had already learned that Li Yun The team is currently working very hard, and often travels to various parts of the United States. Especially in the past month, she has been in the car most of the time. It is very hard. Due to the long distances between states in the United States, his work process has also been affected. Serious impact.

However, the plane he wants to equip the American branch is not such an expensive and luxurious top-level business jet, but a small plane that can replace cars.

In fact, in the United States, many wealthy people have their own small planes. The prices of these planes are usually not very high. They can be bought for as cheap as $10,000+. Ordinary rich people usually buy hundreds of thousands to hundreds of thousands Because the United States is sparsely populated, the aviation department's review procedures for civil aircraft are much looser than those in China, so buying private small private jets is not a rare thing in the United States, just like Duan Yun last time To participate in the CES exhibition held in Las Vegas, many executives of American companies came by small planes.

In the following two days, under the leadership of Duan Yun, Forstmann visited the headquarters of Tianyin Group and some factories in Shenzhen with great interest.

For Duan Yun, Forstmann is not just the owner of the business that sold him the plane. More importantly, Forstmann is a well-known and successful entrepreneur in the United States. His business experience in the United States is worthwhile. Duan Yun went to learn and learn from it, so Duan Yun is also very willing to regard this old man who is over 60 years old as his predecessor, and try his best to let him stay in China for as long as possible, so as to learn more useful experience.

The previous experience in the United States made Duan Yun deeply realize that his theory of doing business in China will not work in many places in the United States. If he wants to expand his business in the United States, he first needs to understand the business rules here. , At the same time, it is also necessary to have a deep understanding of the living and consumption habits of the people of this country. Only after an in-depth understanding of these can Duan Yun be more confident in making his business bigger and stronger in the United States.

Three days later, when Forstmann and his party were about to leave, Duan Yun personally sent them to the airport.

"If Mr. Duan comes to the United States next time, please be sure to call me. I will invite you to my house as a guest. You are my only friend in China, and I personally value this friendship very much." At the entrance of the airport , Forstmann said to Duan Yun.

After getting along with each other in the past few days, Forstmann has a little more respect for Duan Yun, a Chinese customer. Although Gulfstream has many customers around the world, and they are all top rich men, there are very few rich men who are truly self-made. Most of them are the heirs of consortium families, or members of the royal family. Although they have generally received the top educational resources, their aptitude and vision are not particularly outstanding.

But Duan Yun is different. To be able to do business in a socialist country and become the richest man in the country is simply unbelievable for an American like Forstmann. In addition, the current Tianyin Group is actually a comparatively A successful multinational company has even become a supplier of an international giant like IBM. From this point of view, even if Duan Yun is located in the United States, it is still a very powerful company.

"I will often go to the United States in the future, and I look forward to meeting Mr. Forstmann again next time. I have learned a lot from communicating with you in the past few days. I would like to express my gratitude to you from the bottom of my heart. " Duan Yun said sincerely.

"Hehe." Forstmann smiled when he heard the words, lightly patted Duan Yun on the shoulder and said, "Thank you, Mr. Duan, for your hospitality this time. See you next time."

After Forstmann finished speaking, he waved to Duan Yun, and then walked into the waiting hall with his team members.

Seeing Forstmann enter the terminal, Duan Yun turned around and got in the car, leaving the airport.

In the following week, news of Duan Yun's purchase of a private jet immediately spread throughout the country through newspapers and other related media.

Chinese people pay attention to not revealing their wealth, but that is for ordinary rich people. For a top rich man like Duan Yun, few people would think that he is high-profile and public, and through some long-term cooperative relations with Tianyin Group Guided by the media, this matter has become the pride of the Chinese people. Many people think that Chinese businessmen can buy such expensive business jets. This in itself shows that China’s economy is developing very fast. Some people even compare this with reform and opening up. Linked to the success of Duan Yun, this undoubtedly brought a lot of positive public opinion images to Duan Yun.

All in all, in the era when the Internet was underdeveloped, newspapers, periodicals and TV media had a great influence on the public opinion of the domestic people. He could even influence the thinking of most citizens, but it does not mean that Chinese people lack the ability to think independently. Everything has pros and cons, the key depends on your thinking direction and how to think.

However, Duan Yun himself doesn't pay much attention to how Chinese people view his own purchase of airplanes. The most important thing is that he has more efficient and convenient means of transportation, and travel across provinces and even abroad has become much easier. This is what he needs most. of.

At the beginning of July, Duan Yun took his own private jet for the first time and took a cross-provincial flight.

However, this flight was not to go to other places for business negotiations, but to go to Yinchuan to participate in a charity donation event.

Charitable donations have always been a part of Duan Yun's work, and it has been included in his work schedule. In order to maintain a positive image of himself and Tianyin Group, Duan Yun will make donations almost every two to three months. Hold a large-scale donation event, from the Hope Project to support the remote out-of-school children in the third phase, to the poverty alleviation projects in national-level impoverished counties and cities, you can almost see Duan Yun and his team. Last year, Duan Yun’s total donation reached Donated 8000 million RMB, and from the beginning of this year to now, the amount of various donations has exceeded [-] million, which also makes Duan Yun the well-deserved "China's first charity" in China.

In fact, compared to poverty alleviation, Duan Yun is more keen on helping those out-of-school children. During this trip to the west, he donated money to build ten Hope Primary Schools. Since he first cooperated with the Hope Project a few years ago, he is now donating to Hope The number of schools has reached a staggering 270, and some schools have even made statues for Duan Yun, making his name and deeds deeply engraved in the minds of the next generation of remote mountainous children...
