Golden Fishing Village

Chapter 969 976. Celebrities (5)

The three of them were strolling on the floating bridge, wandering around the luxury yacht area.

There were not many visitors here, mainly because you cannot take photos on luxury yachts, so many people gathered in the three major areas, where some small yachts can even be tested for short distances.

Even if they are interested in luxury decoration, they don’t have to stick to the luxury yacht area. Visitors can go to the business yacht area, where the yachts are small, but the decoration is just as luxurious, and you can go on board to visit.

Ao Muyang asked Lu Zhizi, "Do you have any favorites?"

He has been driving a sea fishing boat every day, and he is tired of it. This time, he bought a serious yacht to play with while there are many activities at the yacht show.

Without waiting for Lu Zhizi to speak, Lu Wuyi pointed at the largest yacht and said, "My sister likes that boat, do you want to buy it?"

Ao Muyang glanced at him and said, "Don't make any decisions for your sister. You have to be polite and show some respect to your sister in the future."

Lu Wuyi sneered and was about to start his habitual mouth cannon. Ao Muyang said bluntly, "If I don't care about you tonight, do you believe that those weasels will get into your bed? In fact, it's okay for weasels to get in. I'm just afraid that, hehe, you will find that you are not in the bed when you wake up, but in the cemetery!"

As soon as he said this, Lu Wuyi shuddered violently as if someone poured a lot of ice water on his head.

Lu Zhizi didn't know what the two were talking about, but Lu Wuyi told her with facts: Ao Muyang had grasped his weakness, and he was very well-behaved when facing Lao Ao.

Curious and distressed about the fear on her brother's face, she asked, "What's going on?"

"I..." Lu Wuyi was about to speak, but Ao Muyang said first, "It's okay. See if there are any yachts you like. These yachts are all very beautiful."

"Of course they are beautiful. One yacht costs tens of millions of RMB, and some cost 40 or 50 million." Lu Wuyi muttered, "Even if she likes it, what can we do? We can't go up to visit."

Lu Zhizi glanced at the boats casually, and then pondered, "There is a strange boat over there. Did you see it? It's a bit shabby."

The boat she was talking about was at the edge of the luxury yacht area. It was about 25 or 26 meters long, with only one deck above. Its style was more ancient and unique among the many new modern luxury yachts.

But its appearance was already very dilapidated. The once snow-white hull was now gray and mottled. There were no decorations on the deck, not even tables, chairs or benches for rest. Some of the railings on both sides of the ship were even twisted and almost scrapped.

Seeing them pointing at the yacht, a handsome middle-aged man in a well-dressed suit came over and asked with a smile: "Sir, Madam, are you interested in CITY?"

"CITY? That ship?" Ao Muyang pointed at the broken yacht and asked.

The man nodded: "Yes, that is CITY, a former American celebrity. Perhaps you can see that it is an elder here. CITY was designed in 1965. The ship engineering and exterior design were done by the yacht design master De-Voogt-Naval-Architects at the time. The production company is Feadship. It can be said that it was born from a celebrity."

Feadship is translated as Feadship, a Dutch yacht manufacturer with a history of one and a half centuries. It is the leader of the yacht manufacturing industry.

"Born from a celebrity? Now it has become a second-rate person?" Lu Wuyi never forgets to talk nonsense.

Ao Muyang said to him: "It's not easy for you to live to this day. I suggest you buy yourself some personal accident insurance or something. If you are killed in the future, you can leave some inheritance for your sister."

Lu Zhizi slapped him and said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense."

As a result, Lao Ao's words touched the pain in Lu Wuyi's heart. He thought of the wronged souls that were entangled with him. If he didn't deal with them well, he would really die young.

The man continued to introduce: "CITY doesn't look good now, but it was a well-deserved star at the time. In the 1960s, the European and American yacht market already had many boats for racing, leisure or fishing. What they needed at the time was the kind of boats specially used for watching events such as the America's Cup, so CITY came into being."

"CITY can stay outdoors for a long time, has a deck with a wide view, excellent seaworthiness, easy to control and adjust the course. It was bought by Hollywood superstar Rex Harrison right after it was launched. Do you know this superstar?"

Lu Zhizi nodded and said: "The "Tall and Beautiful" Professor Higgins, who played opposite Audrey Hepburn in "The Woman Who Loved Me", won the Oscar for Best Actor in 1964. "

Hearing her say this, the man was immediately happy: "Yes, this yacht is a gift he gave to himself after winning the Oscar for Best Actor. Are you interested in owning it again?"

Then he hurriedly said: "Although it has a noble origin and its previous owners are also celebrities with great status, the price is not high now, only two million yuan. Compared with the yachts around that cost tens of millions, this price is very conscientious!"

In terms of the tonnage and size of this yacht, two million yuan is indeed conscientious.

However, the capital market has no conscience. This yacht is so cheap, there must be something wrong.

The man talked endlessly about the CITY, its steel hull, its aluminum superstructure, its one master bedroom and three guest bedrooms, and its two Detroit-8V71N-375hp diesel engines.

In addition, he mentioned the names and identities of the previous owners of the yacht. Indeed, the owners of this yacht are either rich or noble.

Lu Zhizi seemed to be a little tempted. She probably knew Ao Muyang's financial resources, so she whispered, "It's really not expensive, huh?"

Hearing this, the man became more excited. He said, "Not only is it not expensive, this boat is quite cheap, ma'am, and its celebrity pedigree and the extraordinary status given to it by its owners of all generations are its invisible assets."

Ao Muyang was not easy to fool. He had been dealing with ships for many years and saw the problem of the boat at a glance: "Two million to buy it, how many tens of thousands to repair it?"

The man saw that they were tempted, so he said, "How about this, sir, ma'am, let's go up and take a look?"

Ao Muyang nodded. At least he could get on a luxury yacht, although he couldn't see any trace of luxury in this broken yacht.

From a distance, the yacht was just relatively old, but from a close look, it was old and broken.

In order to check the internal wiring, all the carpets on the yacht were removed, and some furniture and floors in the lower cabin were also dismantled.

The man was honest and said, "This yacht is very valuable. The reason why it is sold at a low price is that it needs major repairs. The bottom of the boat needs to be re-plated, and the structure and sheet metal of the bow need to be fixed. If it is to sail long distances, the hull needs to be repaired, and it would be best if the deck is replaced. There are also electrical and plumbing projects. It is indeed quite troublesome. But such a big boat only costs two million. It is still worth it, right?"
