With a result that was not particularly satisfactory, Zhao Haijun left the hangar where the Black Cloud Group was located. Although the problem of the aero-engine has been temporarily solved, this is a temporary solution, and the great weapon of the country is still in its own hands to make people feel at ease. You must know that the Heiyun Group is a Hong Kong enterprise, and it is still managed by the British. Once the situation changes, it is very troublesome that the aircraft engine cannot be supplied. At that time, he is not easy to explain to the military, and he will become a sinner.
It’s not that Zhao Haijun didn’t think about building an aero-engine factory in China, not to mention whether Bao Zixuan would agree; the British would definitely come out against it. Batumi will also stop it, and the Black Cloud Group is bound to be severely sanctioned. At the same time, Zhao Haijun also knew that when the British government issued the military license for the Black Cloud Group, it was expressly stipulated that the factories related to the production of weapons and equipment should not be set up in mainland China. This is a red line, and Bao Zixuan did not dare to cross it at this time.
After sending off Zhao Haijun, I saw a lot of people having heated discussions. This made Bao Zixuan very curious, so he came over to see what was going on.
When I came to the scene, I realized that it was a rich man in France who wanted to order a private jet. Not very satisfied with the design plan of the engineering and technical personnel, it is being discussed at this time.
After hearing the whole story, Bao Zixuan really wanted to slap himself. How can you forget such an important thing, private jets can quickly increase your popularity. The wealthy class all choose the Heiyun 919 passenger plane, and ordinary people have nothing to worry about.
Private jets refer to privately owned jets, which are mostly used for personal or commercial travel by individuals and their entourages, and are also a reflection of the owner's identity. The later generations of Dassault, Embraer, and Bombardier, although inferior to Boeing and Airbus in large passenger aircraft, occupy a large share in the field of private jets.
Those who can order private jets are the masters of the money. Higher quality requirements, but less emphasis on price. The black cloud of this business cannot be given up, and this business must be continued. It has nothing to do with how much money you make, it's mainly about creating awareness.
I saw that the communication between the engineering and technical personnel and the customer was not smooth, mainly because the customer spoke French. The engineer speaks English, which requires translation, and many meanings cannot be conveyed directly.
Originally, he didn't want to disturb the engineer's work, but Bao Zixuan knew that he had to take action in this situation. Otherwise, it is very likely to lose this business. Money is a small matter, but face is a big thing.
And the engineer felt relieved when he saw the boss coming. He hurriedly said: "Boss, it's really nice of you to come here. This lady wants to order a private jet, and I'm not very proficient in French. The translation is not very accurate, so please come and receive in person. I will definitely study French in the future, please. boss."
Bao Zixuan gave the engineer a firm look, meaning to reassure him. At the same time, let the engineer watch by the side, after all, he has to complete the follow-up work.
Bao Zixuan walked up to a middle-aged woman and said in French, "Hello, lady! If you have anything to tell me, we will do our best to meet your requirements. Customer satisfaction is our goal."
Hearing such pure French made the middle-aged woman feel good in her heart. So he smiled and said: "Hello, this gentleman, I'm Liliane Betancourt, from L'Oreal Group. If you want to order a different aircraft, the interior decoration must be fashionable. I have been there before. Airbus and Boeing are not very satisfied with their design proposals. I heard that the Black Cloud Group can also produce medium-sized passenger planes, so I came to try my luck.”
Hear the name, and the company it's in. Only then did Bao Zixuan understand why it was so familiar.
L'Oreal Group is a French cosmetic company founded in 1907. It is also a leader in the beauty industry. At its peak, its business scope covers more than 130 countries and regions. It has 283 branches, 42 factories, more than 100 agents, and more than 50,000 employees around the world. A multinational company headquartered in France and one of the Fortune Global 500 companies.
And this Liliane Betancourt is the daughter of the founder of L'Oreal Group. Intern at L'Oréal since the age of 15, succeeding the company after the death of his father in 1957. Definitely the richest woman in France, worth more than $20 billion in later generations. A princess born with a golden key, no wonder her eyes are so picky.
Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "It turned out to be Mrs. Betancourt. I'm sorry I didn't recognize you. I don't know what the Black Cloud Group can do for the lady, or you can tell the effect you want to express, and we can design it on the spot. ."
I am very happy to hear Liliane Betancourt, this young man is much better than the engineers of Boeing and Airbus. Bao Zixuan asked the engineer to bring the drawings and the pen for painting.
In this way, Liliane Betancourt made a design request, and Bao Zixuan began to paint according to the request. The shape of the aircraft has been determined, and it can only be imagined in the painting to fully integrate the L'Oreal elements into the entry.
Liliane Betancourt was very satisfied when the exterior was painted. It is also said that the painting level of this Asian young man is really good. In fact, these are just the basics. In the past life, when Bao Zixuan was idle, he often went to sketch. In addition to the hand-painting skills required by engineers, the painting level is quite professional.
Next, I began to design the interior according to Liliane Betancourt's requirements, and combined Bao Zixuan to look ahead. The interior design is not only luxurious, but also incorporates a lot of fashion elements. Not only Bettencourt was satisfied, but others also wanted to buy one back.
Liliane Bettencourt said excitedly: "This is the result I want, I want to order one. And right away, you can quote."
Bao Zixuan's paintings attracted many viewers, many of them journalists. Betancourt saw that Asian faces were similar, and the main purpose was to order private jets, of course, he would not pay too much attention to the appearance of engineers. But others, especially young women, can know the richest man.
Look at these series of processes, and Liliane Betancourt's identity will not be trusted. Even more would not be a trust for Bao Zixuan, after all, it was not shown that the two had any intersection before.
Bao Zixuan said with a smile, "As long as you are satisfied, I just calculated it. The external painting basically costs little, at most it is a little troublesome. However, the internal structure needs to be changed on a large scale, and the overall cost will increase by about 5 million US dollars. So the price of this aircraft is $37.5 million, after all, the engineers have to do some series of mold openings, I hope you can understand.”
Liliane Bettencourt did not expect the young man to quote the price so quickly, which was much lower than the price in his mind. So he smiled and said, "Sir, this price won't change!"
His words made everyone around him laugh, and it seemed that Betancourt hadn't recognized who the man in front of him was.
Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "Please rest assured, the business reputation of the Black Cloud Group is still guaranteed."
At this time, after a girl next to Bettencourt said a few words to Bettencourt's ear, the other party smiled awkwardly. It turns out that this is the chairman of the Heiyun Group, and I still suspect that others say it's not worth it. Isn't this a shame!
Liliane Bettencourt said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I didn't recognize you. It's also my honor to have the president of Black Cloud Group serve me. So our business has been negotiated, can we sign it? contract."
In fact, it is easy to understand that everyone is a person with identity. If you bargain here, it will make people laugh. You must know that L'Oreal Cosmetics never bargainsBao Zixuan: "Of course you can."
The engineer immediately understood what it meant and started getting people to prepare the contract. Although it is only an order for one aircraft, it is also a first-of-its-kind order. Heiyun Group has finally opened up the private jet market. It is believed that through L'Oreal's orders, more rich people will come to the door in the future.
There are professional lawyers on both sides, and the contract model is similar. The two quickly signed their names on the contract. So far, the first private jet of the Black Cloud Group has finally been sold, and the rest is the production problem.
When Liliane Bettencourt was leaving, Bao Zixuan's words aroused her interest; at the same time, she agreed to meet at L'Oreal's main store two days later for a detailed discussion.
Sure enough, as everyone expected, once the private jet market opened. There will be more rich people coming to customize, and the hangar where the Black Cloud Group is located will be busy again.
L'Oreal's order allows Heiyun Group to open up the private jet market, which is not a good thing for competitors. Airbus originally thought that it was sure to win the order from L'Oreal, but it was robbed by Heiyun. Where the engineers were receiving criticism at this point, of course, the Boeing sales engineers were nowhere near as good.
