Rebirth: My 80s

Chapter 750 Arriving in Los Angeles

Harbor City, Kai Tak Airport.

Cathay Pacific VIP Lounge 01.

"Hello, would you like a refill?"

"Sir, if you are tired, you can take a nap. I will remind you when you board the plane. Do you want to get you a pillow?"

"That's it for now. If you need anything, please call me. I'll be at your service at any time."

Several waitresses wearing crimson uniforms warmly entertained several groups of customers in the lounge. Their service attitude, including business etiquette, left no room for fault.

In fact, not only in VIP Lounge No. 01, but also in the entire Cathay Pacific branch in Kai Tak Airport today, all employees were in high spirits and devoted themselves to work with the fullest enthusiasm.

Cathay Pacific's senior executives have not forgotten that the last time the big boss and group shareholder Dong Chuanwang came to inspect, they directly fired the company's general manager.

This shows how bad the big boss' temper is.

"I don't know who it is, and I haven't sold it at all. Little darlings, do I still care about this little money? I won't be willing to spend money on you. It's really not about money. If you don't believe me, ask who bought it. Got a first-class ticket?”

"Little brother, tell me, can I buy a first-class ticket now?"

In fact, the female foreman has reminded me several times, but to no avail.

The management held an emergency meeting last night. This morning, all department heads lectured employees one by one, with one purpose: whoever makes a mistake will get out. If one person makes a mistake, the entire department will suffer!

"Why can't I buy it? Who is taking the first class seat?"

"Baby, I also want to buy a first-class flight. Do I look like someone who is short of money? The problem is that even if you have money, you can't buy it now." The middle-aged man hugged the one in his arms, and did not forget to "take care of it" with his other hand. "The other two.

Boss Luo is right. Cathay Pacific has indeed not sold first-class cabins on recent flights to Los Angeles because even those with connections in the political and business circles do not have enough supply.

In VIP Lounge No. 01, several waiters and ladies never looked at the coffee break table in the southwest corner. Only the older female foreman, no matter where her eyes fell, her attention was always there, ready at any time. Provide services in person.

"You still travel in economy class?"

Li Jiankun had nothing to say. He was not a customer here, others were God.

Los Angeles is now the focus of the world. Countless people go there. Even the price of ordinary air tickets has soared several times, and it is difficult to get a ticket, let alone a first-class ticket?

"That seat is so crowded."

The man who was called Boss Luo by the three girls said that, as if to verify the authenticity of his words, he cast his eyes on the nearest table of Li Jiankun and his friends. He was a bit discerning and instantly judged that Li Jiankun was the leader, and said hello from a distance:

From this, he also judged that Boss Luo and his party were on the same flight as them.

Boss Luo was in a good mood to save face in front of the three little darlings. He was very pleased with Li Jiankun, and he became even more pleasing to the eye when he accidentally glanced at Ran Zi next to him. In fact, he had already caught a glimpse of it just now, but he was entangled by three babies and didn't have time to take a closer look. Now that he looked carefully, he suddenly felt that the three babies around him were no longer so cute.

At the next table a few steps away from them, there were also four people, one man and three women. The man was in his forties, wearing a large gold chain and a gold Rolex watch on his left wrist. The three women were all young, in their twenties, with gorgeous faces and makeup. thicker.

The three girls were chattering around the middle-aged man, and the girl who was closer almost fell into his arms.

Today, the big boss of Shenlong, who has never been seen before, showed up again, and he wanted to take a company flight to Los Angeles, which meant that he would experience the company's service process throughout the entire process. This made the senior executives of Cathay Pacific Airways very stressed, fearing that there would be a flaw in any link. .

Li Jiankun, who was dressed in casual clothes, was sitting on the sofa chair. The wealthy brothers and Ran Zi, who were also dressed in the same style, were sitting next to them, making a little noise in their ears.

"Boss Luo, this is an economy class ticket."

Li Jiankun smiled. He was a customer. He shook his head and said, "I can't buy it."

"Little brother, you are so lucky, your girlfriend?" Boss Luo nuzzled at Ran Zi.

Ran Zi blushed and did not respond. Li Jiankun waved his hand: "No, colleague."

Boss Luo was obviously a familiar person, and he sat down while chatting. He was tall, thick, and not very good-looking. The answer to why he was so young and so young was soon revealed.

"Come on, beauty, it's fate that we met each other. Brother, I don't have anything else to do this business, just a small gift." Boss Luo said, unzipping the black boss bag in his hand and taking out a plastic bag the size of a business card, which contained a Golden necklace.

It was neither right nor wrong to accept Ran Zi's answer. Li Jiankun said, "Why don't you thank Boss Luo?"

Only then did Ran Zi take it and express her gratitude. Boss Luo smiled cheerfully, as if he was the one who benefited.

"Boss Luo is in the gold business?" Li Jiankun asked.

"'Law Tai Fook' is my brand, and there are 13 stalls in Hong Kong."

"Oh." Never heard of it.

But in a small place like Hong Kong City, being able to open thirteen stalls shows that the business is well managed and that one is considered a master in the industry.

Li Jiankun's thoughts drifted back to the Special Administrative Region. Second General Heng Ha, Xiao Long Xiaohu, Lin Hai and Achang came to Hong Kong City at the beginning of the year to learn the gold business. Now they have returned to the Special Administrative Region to plan. He hasn't visited it yet. To be honest, he I just know that this business has a head start, but I am actually a layman.

While there was still time, I communicated with Boss Luo.

Boss Luo was an acquaintance himself. As they chatted, they began to put their arms around each other. For a moment, he forgot about the beautiful Ran next to him. He found that this young man was very talented and thoughtful. "Brother, you have to work for others, why don't you come over and help me? Don't worry, I will pay you double the salary you get now."

Ran Zi was shocked and her eyes widened. The wealthy brother turned his head to one side, fearing that he might not be able to hold back his laughter.

"This one……"

"Why, do you look down on me? I don't read many books. I can have such a big career today because of my loyalty. If you follow me, you will definitely have a better future than you have now."

What he didn't know was that the female foreman broke out in a cold sweat when she saw him hanging around with the big boss. However, the big boss didn't show any dissatisfaction, and it was hard for her to step forward and do anything rashly. Fortunately, the time has come.

The female foreman arranged her appearance, stepped forward, and bowed: "I'm sorry to bother you, but Li Sheng, Miss Ran, and Mr. Zhang are ready to board the plane."

Before the four of them, Li Jiankun and others, spoke to each other, Boss Luo raised his gold Rolex watch and glanced at it, then glared and asked, "Why are you boarding? Isn't it boarding at 10:40?"

"Yes, the normal time to board the plane is 10:40..."

At this time, Li Jiankun was a little tired of chatting, so he stood up to leave. He had Boss Luo's business card in his hand, so he went back to contact him perfunctorily. Then, under the surprised gazes of Boss Luo and his three little babies, including everyone in the VIP lounge, The female foreman diligently led the four people out of the lounge, but did not go in the direction of the boarding gate, but went deep into the airport.

Boss Luo looked at it and raised his hand to scratch his head.

A table of guests whispered: "Special passage?"

Twenty minutes later, it was time to board the plane. Boss Luo and his party followed the surging flow of people to gate C41 and lined up to board the plane.

After a lot of trouble, I finally boarded the Boeing 860 flight CX767 bound for Los Angeles.

"Welcome to this flight." The beautiful flight attendant led three flight attendants to greet the passengers at the cabin door.

Boss Luo felt very comfortable with his belly puffed out. He nodded and walked towards the interior of the cabin. His three little darlings were obsessed with first class and walked slowly around him. They wanted to see how they could fly first class at this time. Who are they?

Suddenly, the three girls stopped at the same time.

"What's wrong?" Boss Luo followed their gaze.

blind!
He saw the person he called his brother, occupying a first-class seat in a smooth manner, with beautiful Ran and the twins beside him. They occupied one-third of the twelve-seat first-class cabin.

"Brother, you..." Boss Luo was not a fool after all, and his mind suddenly buzzed.

What's the point?
He was the one who packed the place quickly. At this time, few people had boarded the plane, but the drinks on the small solid wood table in front of the four of them were all served.

The airport specially opened a special channel for them, allowing them to board the plane twenty minutes earlier than other passengers.

What status do you need to enjoy this kind of treatment?
Li Jiankun smiled slightly.

It was no longer easy for Boss Luo to say the word "brother" in his mouth, so he smiled awkwardly and cupped his hands: "I don't know how to recognize Mount Tai."

I wanted to get closer, but someone was urging me from behind, and I couldn't save my face, so I took the three little babies with strange faces to find their seats in the economy class.

The flight from Hong Kong to Los Angeles is about 1.2 kilometers and the flight time is about hours. This is the first time in Li Jiankun's life that he has taken such a long route.

He spent several hours observing, and finally found that he couldn't figure out the reason without knowing his identity, so he gave up and asked for a blanket to cover his head and sleep.

Compared with the service on Air China's aircraft these days, Cathay Pacific is really lackluster.

However, Li Jiankun knew that it would be difficult to follow suit. How could an ordinary airline require all flight attendants to be good at singing and dancing?
Flight attendants also have a different sense of mission.

Later on, wouldn’t it be the same? Some things are, after all, unique to the mainland in the 1980s.

I woke up a few times and ordered some reasonably good first-class meals. After eating, I went to sleep. The journey was smooth and the plane arrived in Los Angeles on time.

It was still daytime in Los Angeles at this time, around ten in the morning.

It can even be said that they are back to yesterday.

The United States is a full thirteen hours behind China.

A very strange feeling.

After going through the security check process and entering the terminal, I saw Liu Jingyan coming to pick her up from a distance, and there were two people beside her, both staff members of the Huadian IC Design Center in Hong Kong City.

After the two parties met, Liu Jingyan's eyes examined Ran Zi. This was the first time she had seen this girl.

"The car is ready. Las Vegas is not far away. It takes about four hours to drive. It's better to start now..."

"No," Li Jiankun interrupted Liu Jingyan, "I want to stay in Los Angeles for a few days."

Liu Jingyan was hesitant to speak, but A Fei had reported back to her that the owner didn't seem to care much about the casino and hotel, but she really felt that the business was good and could better solve the owner's top priority.

When a group of people left the airport together, Li Jiankun took a deep breath of the air in Los Angeles. The air of freedom was just nonsense, and the city did not give him the feeling of being a lower class person. The street scene in front of him was not necessarily as prosperous and grand as the Hong Kong City. .

However, it is true that there is a restless and festive atmosphere permeating the city.

The 23rd Olympic Games in 1984 is currently being held in Los Angeles.

This Olympic Games has a unique significance for every Chinese. It is the first time that China has participated in the Olympic Games since the founding of the People's Republic of China. Now many people in China are watching the TV sets to watch our athletes.

You are here, how can you not go to the scene to cheer?
