Chapter 698 – Chartering a fligh



So, Feng Yu decided to charter a flight!

……

“What the hell are you thinking? Even if you are going to the US, is there a need to charter a flight? You have too much money until you don’t know how to spend it?” Hou Haitao grumbled.

“Just tell me if you can help me or not. This is very important. I am going to meet an important client. In the US, public image is vital. This is also to show them our financial strength.” Feng Yu replied.

“Then just go and charter a flight. Why are you looking for me? Are you trying to ask me to help you get a discount?” Hou Haitao looked at Feng Yu speechless. How many people are you bringing to the US? Are you really going to charter a flight?

“How do you know? I want a plane with the biggest first-class section. Also, I need to meet with all the crew first. I need to pass some instructions to them.”

Hou Haitao looked at Feng Yu warily. “Are you thinking of doing bad things? What instructions are you going to give them? You also do not know how to fly a plane!”

“It is business-related. I cannot tell you everything. Those foreigners are all very arrogant. They might find fault over the smallest detail and demand harsh conditions. Or maybe our conversations on the plane are a leak by the crew?” Feng Yu starts to talk nonsenses. He only wants to ask the crew to help him put on a show.

“You always have all sort of reasons. I will help you ask around.”

“Don’t just ask. You must make sure this matter is settled. This is very important to me! It is about my ‘face.’ ”

Hou Haitao stared at Feng Yu angrily. “I knew it. What you just said is all rubbish! You only want to look good in front of others!”

“Just hurry up. I am waiting. It would be best if the flight is scheduled tomorrow morning.”

Hou Haitao contacted a leader of Beijing Capital Airlines and told him about Feng Yu’s request. Feng Yu wants to charter a plane with a lot of first-class seats, from Beijing to New York. Preferably departing tomorrow morning.

Huh? Charter a flight?

The leader of Beijing Capital Airlines was stunned. China’s top officials did have personal planes when they were on official duties. Some travel agencies do book out all the economy seats for their clients. But he has never heard of anyone chartering the whole flight for a business trip! And he still requests for a plane with the most first-class seats!

“Old Hou, if the whole flight is chartered, we have to include the ticket prices for every seat on the plane. This will be an insane amount.”

Hou Haitao glanced at Feng Yu and then said: “Stop bullshitting me. Is your tickets from Beijing to New York selling well? Give me a discount. I will tell him to use your airlines when his company’s staff goes on business trips.”

The airline companies were now operating as private companies. The tickets were already discounted as the planes were always not full. Although Hou Haitao kept saying Feng Yu was wasting his money, he still tries to help him get a discount.

“Ok, then. I will give you a 15% discount. Which company is this? How come he needs to charter a flight?”

“Feng Yu’s company.”

“Feng Yu? Which Feng Yu?”

“Who did you buy your Soviet Union planes from?” Hou Haitao reminded him.

“That Feng Yu from Tai Hua Trading?”

“What do you think? Other than this, Feng Yu, who else can make me call you? Ok. I will leave everything to you. Let’s meet up in the afternoon. I have something else to discuss with you.”

……

“Mr. Feng, what did you say? You have chartered a flight to New York?” Victor was shocked. How rich was Feng Yu? Was there a need to charter a flight when going overseas?

“Our aviation security is quite strict here. I had wanted to buy a private plane as I do not like to travel with strangers. This is why I charter a flight every time I travel. Anyway, it does not cost much.” Feng Yu casually replied.

Chartering a plane does not cost much? Even if the living expenses in China was much lower than the US, but the air tickets were much more expensive compared to the US. The was an extravagant behavior, and it was still a long-distance flight!

“Mr. Feng, please use the special entrance over here.” A stewardess leads them over to a special entrance at the airport.

The row of bodyguards walked over and went up the plane to make a security check, before letting Feng Yu and Victor enter the plane. Another group of people boarded the plane and were seated at the back.

“Mr. Victor, there is coffee, cigar, wine, cigarettes on board. If you need anything, just let the stewardess know.”

“Oh, ok. I will.” Victor nodded.

“Mr. Feng, everyone is on board, and we can leave anytime.” A man in pilot uniform walked over and reported.

“Let’s go.” Feng Yu nodded. He pretended to be familiar with all these operations.

The plane took off, and the stewardess walked over: “Mr. Feng, is it as usual?”

Feng Yu nodded. The stewardess poured a cup of tea for Feng Yu and then turn to Victor. “Sir, what would you like?”

“Coffee.”

This was an eye-opener for Victor. This was a real tycoon. Feng Yu must have been chartering flights when he travels. Even the stewardess does not need to ask and knows what he wants. Also, Feng Yu was able to get the passports for so many people within a short time. This shows how influential Feng Yu was.

For many years, Victor felt proud in China because he was American. His country was powerful, and he was rich. But after today, he dare not to be arrogant and proud in China. China was a mysterious country. Who knew that there was someone so rich and influential in China.

“Mr. Victor. It is boring. Shall we play poker?” Feng Yu asked.

“Poker? Our rules should be different from China.” Victor hesitated. But the flight was more than 10 hours, and he got nothing to do.

“How about BlackJack? The rules should be the same.” Feng Yu laughed and waved his hand. A man wearing a dealer uniform walked over. The feature of a dealer’s uniform was no pockets.

Victor frowned. Who brings a dealer along when traveling? This Feng Yu likes to gamble?

“Mr. Victor, it would be boring if we are playing Blackjack without any bets.” Feng Yu smiled and looked at Victor.

Victor had been to Las Vegas a few times and likes to gamble. But he knew his bet was nothing compared to Feng Yu.

“Mr. Feng, I do not have much money with me.”

“It’s fine. We are just playing for fun. How about 400 USD per bet? I will be the banker. If your men are interested, they can also join in.” Feng Yu said. He suggested 400 USD per bet was because Blackjack’s payout has 1.25 times, 1.5 times and double. It will be easier to calculate if it was 400 USD.

400 USD? This was not consider a large amount and Victor could afford it. He nodded, but he did not ask his assistant to join. He felt Feng Yu was only being courteous and did not really mean it when he said to ask his assistant to join.

“Ok. Let’s play a few games for fun.”
