Rebirth 98, the rise started from ripping off Microsoft

Chapter 726

Lu Yiming quickly explained: "I'm also here to play, okay, I have no business."

Hearing what Lu Yiming said, Li Yiwen breathed a sigh of relief, and muttered, "It's not too bad."

Lu Yiming asked, "Where are you guys? Let's have dinner together."

Li Yiwen said, "The Champs Elysees."

"Wait for me, I'll go there now."

"……All right."

Not long after, Lu Yiming saw Li Yiwen at the door of a bag shop on the Champs Elysees. At this time, Li Yiwen was squatting in front of the shop and counting ants bored.

Lu Yiming walked over and squatted beside him, and asked, "Where is sister-in-law?"

Li Yiwen pouted his lips to the back and said, "Here, I'm shopping for a bag."

Afterwards, he asked Lu Yiming: "What are you doing in Paris? Why don't you take your little girlfriend with you?"

Lu Yiming said: "I came from a beautiful country and successfully sold PayPal. I wanted to buy a plane from Boeing, but they refused to sell it to me."

Li Yiwen felt very novel: "I won't sell it to you? Is there such a thing? Why?"

Lu Yiming said helplessly: "I guess it was because the leeks were cut too hard last time. The top ten airlines jointly boycotted me. Boeing sold me the plane. I think it was because I was afraid of offending other companies."

Li Yiwen said with a smile: "That's a very reasonable explanation. It's already an extra-algorithmic favor for them to let you fly to the beautiful country."

Lu Yiming said: "So I have to buy another plane, otherwise I will have to row across the Pacific Ocean in the future."

The two were chatting, when Li Zixian came out of the store, saw Li Yiwen and Lu Yiming squatting at the door chatting, and greeted with a smile: "Cousin, you have come to Paris too."

Lu Yiming turned his head away and said with a smile, "Hello, sister-in-law. Don't worry, sister-in-law, I'm here for fun, not on business."

Li Yiwen asked: "If Boeing doesn't sell it to you, could it be that you went to Europe to buy the plane?"

Lu Yiming said: "Of course, if Boeing doesn't sell it, isn't there Airbus? There is no unparalleled road, right? I plan to visit the headquarters of Airbus and order a private jet. What do you think of the A340-300?" Sample?"

空中客车A340-300是A340的高载客量型，标准载客295人。机身长度63.6米，机身宽度5.64米，最大客舱宽度5.28米。巡航速度为0.82马赫，约一千公里每小时。

Li Yiwen looked surprised: "Are you crazy? This is a large plane. If it is used as a passenger plane, it can carry 300 people! Why do you buy such a large plane?"

Lu Yiming said eloquently: "Isn't it normal for men to like big guys?"

Li Yiwen was sore when he heard it, and said, "Do you know how much an A340-300 costs?"

Lu Yiming said: "Before I came here, I consulted with Airbus. The initial quotation is 2 million US dollars. This is the standard version. If the interior decoration needs to be customized, the price will be calculated separately."

"Two hundred million dollars!?"

Li Yiwen couldn't help but gasped.

This is 17 billion Xia Guobi.

Lu Yiming said triumphantly: "You probably don't know yet. I went to the beautiful country this time and sold PayPal. I just made a billion dollars. It's more than enough to buy an A340-300."

Li Yiwen didn't know how to refute, so he could only give a thumbs up and said, "Yes, you are awesome, okay?"

Why is this guy so angry?

Lu Yiming said: "Tomorrow I plan to go to Toulouse, do you want to go to play together?"

"..."

The next day, Lu Yiming and his group came to Toulouse, the headquarters of Airbus.

Airbus directly sent Guillaume Faury, the company's vice president, to receive Lu Yiming.

In the senior meeting room of Airbus, Lu Yiming met with Guillaume Faury.

Guillaume Faury seemed very enthusiastic.

Airbus is currently competing with Boeing globally, and Lu Yiming, a super rich man from Xia, is the one they must win over.

In their view, Airbus can use Lu Yiming to enter the Xia country market by serving the super rich Lu Yiming well.

"Mr. Lu, I have wanted to meet you for a long time! Today you finally came to our Airbus!"

Lu Yiming smiled lightly, shook hands with Guillaume Faury, and said, "I also wanted to visit Airbus a long time ago. This is a great company."

The bridal sedan chair was carried by everyone, since Airbus gave such a face, Lu Yiming naturally wouldn't be stingy with his saliva.

After exchanging pleasantries, Lu Yiming cut to the chase and said, "Do you have the Type 340 aircraft I need? I want to go and have a look first."

"No problem, please come with me."

Guillaume Faury led Lu Yiming and his party to the Airbus production workshop.

A plane more than 60 meters long is indeed a big guy.There happened to be an A340 being assembled in the workshop, so Guillaume Faury took Lu Yiming to visit.

"The company provides aircraft customization services. If Mr. Lu needs it, I will call you the person in charge of the customization department immediately."

Lu Yiming said: "My plane must not only have sleeping and relaxing rooms, but also a banquet hall that can accommodate 30 people. I will use a lot of Chinese-style gold-plated and gold decorations throughout the plane."

Li Yiwen couldn't help complaining in a low voice: "Are you planning to make the whole plane look like a local tyrant's gold? Isn't it a bit too vulgar?"

Lu Yiming waved his hand and said: "Hey, you don't understand, vulgarity is elegance. It's so comfortable to look at the golden. Have you ever visited the imperial palace? That kind of luxury is the top luxury, not just piles of luxury. It can be done with materials, and it must be artistic.”

Guillaume Faury has seen too much about the preferences of the patron's father. Over the years, the people who have customized the aircraft here have all kinds of requirements, and he has long been familiar with it.What's more, Lu Yiming's request is already the most normal one for him.

"Then, Mr. Lu, let's go to the private customization department to discuss."

"Walk."

After careful planning by professionals, the interior design of the aircraft was finalized, which is expected to cost an additional $800 million, while the interior layout of the aircraft was finalized as having four bedrooms, a guest lounge, kitchen and a Dining area for 30 people.

The total cost is 800 million US dollars!
Of course, Airbus was very sincere and gave Lu Yiming a discount, wiping out a fraction of the $800 million.

The two parties formally signed the contract, and Lu Yiming immediately paid the deposit.

After successfully buying the plane, Lu Yiming was still very excited thinking that he would own a luxurious sky fortress in the future.

"Okay, I bought the plane and I'm ready to go back to China, cousin, sister-in-law, you guys continue to have fun here."

Guillaume Faury immediately dispatched an A340 to send Lu Yiming back to China for free.

Speaking of which, Airbus is also a thief. After successfully winning Lu Yiming's order, they immediately disclosed the news.

Who made Lu Yiming forget that there was a confidentiality clause signed?

These days, the Internet is more and more developed, and the speed of news dissemination is fundamentally different from before.With the emergence of various portal websites, the time for fresh information to reach users is directly calculated in minutes.

Here, Lu Yiming is still crossing the Eurasian continent, while the people of Xia Kingdom over there are already boiling because of Lu Yiming's move of spending 6000 million US dollars to buy the A340.

As soon as Lu Yiming's plane landed at Baiyun International Airport, the reporters who had already been waiting eagerly surrounded him.

Lu Yiming walked out of the cabin door, looking at a large group of reporters, a little dazed.

After all, at this time, he didn't even know that everyone knew about his purchase of the plane.

A female reporter yelled: "Mr. Lu, is this A340 your latest private jet?"

It was only then that Lu Yiming realized that Airbus directly took him as a propaganda.

After cursing inwardly that Angsa people are really despicable, Lu Yiming said decisively: "No, my plane is specially customized, and I won't be able to get it until next year."

Another reporter asked: "Mr. Lu, I heard that the price of an Airbus A340 is as high as 16 billion, and the price of this one you customized has reached 8129 billion. Is it true?"

Lu Yiming said, "It's true."

Although I have seen these data in the newspapers, but now Lu Yiming admits that the concept is naturally different.

A group of reporters thought that their salary was only 2000 yuan a month, and that Lu Yiming spent more than 20 billion yuan to buy an airplane, and they suddenly felt sad.

Sometimes, the gap between people is greater than the gap between people and maggots.

In fact, it's not just reporters, some rich people on the [-] rich list are also very confused.

At the headquarters of Delong International Strategic Investment Company, brothers Tang Wanli and Tang Wanxin looked very distressed when they read the news in the newspaper.

As the helm of the Delong family, they control hundreds of billions of assets, but the personal assets of the two brothers are not high, only 19 billion, ranking No. 20 and six on the [-] rich list.

And most of the 19 billion are fixed assets such as stocks, bonds and various RVs, not cash.

This also means that even if they go bankrupt, they cannot afford an A340-300.

Tang Wanli waved the newspaper in his hand rustling, and with an envious expression on his face, he said to Tang Wanxin: "Lu Yiming is really rich, this is the real billionaire. Compared with him, the two of us are really poor Gotta jingle."

Tang Wanxin sighed, and said, "That's right, compared to Lu Yiming, the two of us are simply poor."

Although the current Delong department is still very beautiful in the eyes of outsiders, Tang Wanli and Tang Wanxin both know that there is a big problem with the company's accounts, and the capital chain will soon be overwhelmed.This matter has made the two brothers melancholy for a long time.

Tang Wanxin suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and said excitedly: "Tell me, how about we ask the richest man in Lu to invest?"

Tang Wanli became interested when he heard it, but then he hesitated and said, "Can it be done?"

Tang Wanxin said: "Now is not the time to hesitate. You have to try to know whether you can do it or not. What if Lu Yiming is really a fool with a lot of money. What normal person can do such a thing by spending more than two billion yuan to buy an airplane?" Son?"

The two brothers agreed that Tang Wanli would be the representative of the company to discuss cooperation with Lu Yiming.

Lu Yiming and Tang Wanli met, and after exchanging pleasantries, Tang Wanli proposed that Delong International Strategic Investment Company wanted to cooperate with Future Capital.

Both parties are engaged in investment, but the playing methods are different.

"Mr. Lu, the future capital is rich, while the Delong Group has strength and industry. Once the two parties cooperate, it will definitely be a strong alliance."

If it's an ordinary person, maybe they are really taken aback by the hundreds of billions of giants of the Delong family.But Lu Yiming was different.

Because he didn't know this company at all... Even after Tang Wanli introduced it, he still didn't have any outstanding impressions in his mind.

Don't mess with things you don't understand. This is the conclusion Lu Yiming came to after reading the entrepreneurial histories of countless bigwigs.

The most typical example is counterfeit medicine stop.

Therefore, Lu Yiming has no interest in cooperating with Delong Group at all.

However, he is a tactful person. He felt that this kind of refusal should not be said too directly, so he pretended to be very interested and said to Tang Wanli with a smile: "Mr. Tang, you are a person with great ambitions." , Delong Group can grow to a scale of [-] billion at an astonishing speed in just a few years, it is indeed a powerful company. But investing in Delong Group is such a big thing, I need time to think about it. "

Hearing this, Tang Wanli sighed inwardly, forced a smile and said, "Then I will wait for the good news from President Lu."

"it is good."

When Tang Wanli returned to the company, Tang Wanxin hurriedly asked, "What's the matter? Is it done? What did Boss Lu say?"

Tang Wanli shook his head slightly, and sighed: "Lu Yiming really is not a vain man, he probably has already seen that there is something wrong with Delong."

Tang Wanxin turned pale with shock: "How is this possible?"

Tang Wanli smiled wryly and shook his head and said, "Why is this impossible? I'm not a god. Even though I tried my best to conceal the company's financial problems, I still left some clues. Sooner or later, people will see the flaws."

My family knows their own affairs, and the current Delong Group can be said to be "golden and jade outside, but inside it", and it is in urgent need of straw to tide over the current difficulties.Before, the two brothers wanted to find Lu Yiming, but now it seems that Lu Yiming has no intention of talking to them at all. "

Tang Wanxin said helplessly, "Brother, don't we have any other options?"

After all, Tang Wanli was someone who had served as an assistant and think tank for others, so even at this time, his mind was quite calm.After pondering for a while, he suddenly made a decision: "The bad news is that Lu Yiming will definitely not be able to invest in our Delong. But the good news is that Lu Yiming obviously doesn't intend to bring this matter up on the table."

Tang Wanxin scratched his head, his eyes full of doubts: "So?"

Tang Wanli smiled slightly and said: "So we can definitely let out the rumor that Lu Yiming, the richest man in Asia, is very optimistic about our Delong Group and intends to invest. Currently, we are actively investigating it."

Tang Wanxin was stunned by this operation. It was an attempt to rip off Lu's richest man and fool other investors.

"Is this really good? What if the richest man in Lu stepped forward to refute the rumors?"

Tang Wanli said confidently: "Lu Yiming won't stand up, and I didn't lie. He said in front of me that he is optimistic about Delong Group. It is a fact."

"But can this attract investment?"

"So there has to be a next step."

"How to do?"

"After a few days, you will quietly release the news, saying that Future Capital has already planned to invest in Delong Group, but we have not negotiated a price yet."

Tang Wanxin scratched his head, then his eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands suddenly: "Hey, absolutely!"

Sure enough, a few days later, there was news that Lu Yiming was very optimistic about Delong Group.

At present, the two parties have entered the negotiation stage, but there is a dispute between the two parties on the valuation of Delong Group. Lu Yiming wants to take the opportunity to lower the price, while Delong Group is fighting with reason.

The news soon caused a stir all over the city, attracting the attention of countless investors in the investment circle.

After all, this is a company that even Lu's richest man is optimistic about!

On Monday morning, Lu Yiming was eating breakfast leisurely at home, and was thinking about where to go to relax with Shi Qingxue later, when Li Quanwang ran over.

Ning Xuehua went to open the door and found that it was Li Quanwang, so she called Li Quanwang into the room and said, "Wang Zi, have you had breakfast? Do you want to eat together?"

Li Quanwang said politely: "I have eaten, thank you, auntie, I have something to do with Ming Zai."

Lu Yiming raised his head and asked, "What's the matter?"

Li Quanwang came to sit down next to Lu Yiming, and asked in a low voice, "What does the Delong Group do? Why did I see a lot of news when I went online today saying that you are optimistic about this company and are planning to invest? What? This company is very Awesome? Profitable?"

Now, the Tongxin Internet Cafe has been sold, and Li Quanwang's only source of income is the dividends from the rent of the house, which has shrunk significantly compared to before, so he wants to do something else to make money.Today, I suddenly saw Lu Yiming saying that he wanted to invest in Delong Group, so he rushed over to inquire about the situation.

Lu Yiming didn't notice the news yet, so he frowned and said, "When did I say I was optimistic about Delong Group?"

Li Quanwang said: "There are anecdotes."

Lu Yiming quickly turned on the computer, and sure enough, he quickly found the relevant news on the anecdote.

He was very speechless after reading it, and couldn't help complaining: "Damn, I used to pluck Li Chaoren's wool, and now it's my turn to be plucked. Is this just tit for tat?"

Li Quanwang said impatiently: "Don't be too emotional, what is this Delong Group, is it really worth investing in?"

Lu Yiming said angrily: "Investment? Reincarnation is almost the same! Rubbish company!"

Li Quanwang was shocked and said, "Isn't it? I have seen the development momentum of this company, and it is indeed very strong."

After Lu Yiming came back yesterday, he studied the company carefully, and immediately said: "Of course, Delong Group can easily buy shares in many banks, and then illegally transfer the deposits of these banks to make massive mergers and acquisitions. Can this development not be fast? But if you think about it carefully, is this kind of thing an ordinary person can do?"

Li Quanwang thought for a while and said, "You mean there is someone behind them?"

Lu Yiming said: "There must be, and the water here is very deep. We can't grasp it, so we better not get in it. If something happens, the big shot will definitely get out of it. After all, no matter how hard it is, you can't hurt the noble. As for us These capitalists who can only hang street lamps have to be backed by others."
