The Super Rich: Start from when the family business is about to go bankrupt!

Chapter 619 WPG President An Misses a New Opportunity! Hierarchy and Default Rules? The Trouble Brewing in Correa?

Wugengtian is different from most pharmaceutical companies.

Wugengtian holds a very high position in the business ecosystem and strongly demands that all distributors pay in advance for goods, thus avoiding the issue of Wugengtian's payments being delayed.

There's no shortage of money in the accounts at dawn!

In fact, given Wu Gengtian's current situation, even if Wu Gengtian doesn't have enough funds in its account, banks are willing to provide Wu Gengtian with loans at extremely low interest rates.

After all, Wugengtian is an absolutely high-quality customer, and there is absolutely no probability of bad debts or bad debts.

"Aren't there any suitable models like the G600 and G650?" An Wuyang asked.

Musk responded, "No."

"After all, buyers who can afford private jets are unlikely to easily replace their aircraft unless an accident occurs or the aircraft reaches a certain age," Musk explained.

"For example, if you bought a G650ER, would you normally sell it after a year?" Musk asked rhetorically.

An Wuyang suddenly realized, "He doesn't know either!"

Putting aside the fact that buying a brand new G650ER would involve waiting in line for two or three years, why would anyone sell a plane that's only been used for a year?

Even if they purchase a newer, higher-end aircraft, they are unwilling to sell it.

Anyway, we can sign a recycling agreement with Gulfstream!

“I took a look, and the youngest G600 model is over four years old, with more than two thousand flight hours,” Musk explained.

"There are two limitations to the lifespan rules for business jets, including the design lifespan and the flight lifespan," Musk explained to Anwuyang.

He guessed that An Wuyang probably didn't know these things?
“Take the Gulfstream G550 as an example. Its design life is theoretically 25 years, but a comprehensive evaluation is required every 12 years. Only after passing the comprehensive evaluation can it continue to be used,” Musk first explained regarding the design life.

"Secondly, there's the flight lifespan; its safe flight lifespan is 2 hours," Musk added.

At first glance, 20,000 hours seems like a small number?
However, based on the Gulfstream G550's standard cruising speed of 850 kilometers per hour, 20,000 hours of flight time would amount to 17 million kilometers.

The Earth's equator is about 4 kilometers long, which is equivalent to flying around the Earth 425 times!
In addition, the average distance between the moon and the earth is about 38 kilometers, which is equivalent to 22 round trips.

Of course, this is just a mathematical calculation. The Gulfstream G550 cannot leave the atmosphere; its maximum flight altitude is approximately 1.55 meters.

"In addition, private jets require a major overhaul every six years, which, for a Gulfstream G550, would cost approximately $300 million," Musk added regarding the maintenance costs of private aircraft.

"At the same time, an engine hot-section inspection is required every three years, which typically costs $150 million," Musk added, citing the operating costs of his private jet.

"Considering these maintenance costs, you should understand the advantages of a used business jet with a shorter age and shorter flight time, right?" Musk asked rhetorically.

"All is well" is an affirmative response.

“I found the buyer information for this G550. The buyer is a local real estate developer in our Bald Eagle. Recently, the company has run into a cash flow problem, and the bank is unwilling to help. So, they have no choice but to put the G550, which they bought less than a year ago, up for sale,” Musk explained in more detail.

"From my personal perspective, I really recommend you buy this G550, rather than the G600 and G650 which are at least four years old," Musk offered his sincere advice.

"Wait a moment, let me ask my mother for her opinion." An Wuyang did not make the decision on her own.

“OK! I’ll wait for your reply,” Musk replied.

After the call ended, An Wuyang immediately contacted Li Wenya.

"What is it?" Li Wenya asked as soon as she answered the phone.

An Wuyang quickly explained the information about the private jet, providing all the details so that Li Wenya could make her own decision.

After listening to An Wuyang's explanation, Li Wenya began to consider it, and An Wuyang did not urge her.

The phone call only costs a few cents.
If he dares to urge Li Wenya, he'll probably get scolded!
What if he really gets scolded? Doesn't President An have any pride?
While Li Wenya remained silent, An Wuyang heard the sound of keyboards clicking on her keyboard. He guessed that Li Wenya might be calculating related costs.
That's really true!

About a minute later, Li Wenya responded, "Buy the Gulfstream G550 you mentioned, and change the paint scheme to the 'Five Watches' logo."

“Okay,” An Wuyang replied.

These are all minor requests!
Having finalized the purchase model with Li Wenya, An Wuyang immediately contacted Musk again, leveraging Musk's network of connections to finalize the matter.

As for the concerns some netizens have about Gulfstream manufacturers or individuals with ulterior motives causing trouble with the Gulfstream G550, there is really no need to worry.

Because some things are established rules and conventions.

For example, the Xia Dynasty purchased a lot of Toyota Coasters. Why didn't Toyota tamper with these Coasters?

For example, the chief elder of the Xia Kingdom's cabinet once chose a Boeing 747-400 aircraft for state visits.

Isn't the other party more valuable than An Wuyang?

But why doesn't anyone do certain things?

The reason is simple—default rules!
This world is governed by both the law of the jungle and the unspoken rules.

Wolves have their rules, and sheep have theirs.

Once something breaks the rules, wouldn't that lead to an endless cycle of retaliation, resulting in an irreversible downward spiral of disastrous consequences?
So netizens don't need to worry too much; some things aren't as terrifying as they seem.

Even if someone were to target An Wuyang, they would almost certainly not choose to do so through a private jet, but would instead use a more direct approach.

For example, when An Wuyang went to Bald Eagle, someone impersonated a gang member and White Flour Worm, and then directly attacked An Wuyang with guns.

That's the most likely scenario.

Unfortunately, An Wuyang is not simply the head of a business conglomerate; he controls overseas armed forces, and these are very threatening organizations.

In such a situation, if someone breaks the rules and targets An Wuyang, it means that An Wuyang can also break the rules and retaliate.

In fact, An Wuyang had been looking forward to this!
When An Wuyang went to Tyrande for tourism before, he was looking forward to this kind of thing. He even dispatched security forces in advance to prepare to flex his muscles, but no one took action, which made An Wuyang somewhat disappointed.

As the saying goes, when you have a hammer in your hand, everything looks like a nail.

Once the GSS Global Special Security Mobile Team is in place, An Wuyang really wants to flex his muscles; otherwise, how will others know how powerful he is?
Unfortunately, there hasn't been an opportunity yet.

Even though An Wuyang deliberately went to Tyrande for tourism, the Bald Eagles didn't fall for it.

An Wuyang and Musk first discussed and confirmed the purchase of a used Gulfstream G550 business jet. Then he asked, "How long will the whole thing take?"

“Soon!” Musk replied.

“As long as the payment is received, your painting can be completed in one day, and then it will take another day to fly over,” Musk added.

“This plane will definitely fly over before your grand New Year’s Day celebrations,” Musk added. “How about this, I’ll pay for it for you as an advance payment for the goods?” Musk tentatively suggested.

An Wuyang refused, "No, we'll do it ourselves."

Musk asked bluntly, "I've heard you're cutting back on the production of various drugs in the early morning?"

For example, the nitroglycerin pills were very popular and effective, and there weren't many nitroglycerin pills on the open market, but Wujingtian simply stopped producing them.

“It’s not about cutting production, it’s about our shortage of raw materials, I told you before,” An Wuyang replied.

"Can Two Joys guarantee supply?" This is the question Musk is more concerned about.

Musk has now completely fallen in love with Two Joys. Although it is expensive, for Musk, the price of $80,000 is the same as a guy with a monthly salary of $100,000 looking at a drink worth $80,000.

That's not quite right.
Earlier this year, around October, Musk's net worth exceeded $3000 billion.

What is this concept?
While net worth is not the same as cash, the means of production and business resources included in net worth can create more cash wealth.

Therefore, while the expenses for both parties are not negligible for Musk, they are actually quite similar.

"I'll try my best," An Wuyang said, not giving a definitive answer.

He said this simply to highlight the preciousness of the vitality-restoring factor.

But in fact, if An Wuyang insists on using the Vitality Restoration Factor, there is no problem.

It's nothing more than repeatedly harvesting the annual Morinda officinalis.

“Alright, I’ll act as your go-between and help you finalize this Gulfstream G550 deal.” Musk offered to help, but didn’t expect anything in return.

An Wuyang knew very well that Musk didn't want a return; he wanted an even bigger one.

For example, the priority supply right of two parties.

However, An Wuyang doesn't mind giving Musk this priority, because maintaining a good relationship with Musk is not a bad thing.

"How is the situation in Nihe Kingdom lately?" An Wuyang asked about the desert aloe vera.

Musk replied with a smile, "Don't worry! Everything's going smoothly!"

"What other problems could there be over there?" Musk countered.

“We have already secured the relevant land and recruited locals to help us cultivate Aloe vera. We'll have to wait a little longer for the samples,” Musk added.

Musk believes that with the Bald Eagles stationed in Nile, it's impossible for them to cause any trouble!
The two then discussed aloe vera for a while before ending the call.

An Wuyang didn't check the messages on his phone anymore. He got up and washed up first, and would check the messages waiting to be processed on his phone when he had breakfast.

……

Grand celebration.

After finishing her conversation with An Wuyang, Li Wenya immediately contacted An Huchun.

“Honey, I had my son buy a used business jet for about 2.5 million yuan,” Li Wenya explained.

An Huchun quickly asked, "Why buy a used phone? Just buy a brand new one. The one he's using now looks pretty good, it only costs a little over 500 million. Let's just buy the same model!"

Fortunately, An Wuyang didn't know what An Huchun was saying, otherwise An Wuyang would have been completely stunned!
Is this the true value of being a second-generation rich kid?

Li Wenya responded, "His model requires a waiting list of almost two years, and other new models also require waiting. Only second-hand machines can be put into use quickly."

"Although we chose a second-hand phone, it's a very good one," Li Wenya added.

“I remember this guy previously ordered a Gulfstream G700. After delivery, we’ll take it and use it. We’ll give him this second-hand one,” Anhuchun happily decided.

Li Wenya seconded, "That's what I think too!"

Therefore, without Mr. An's knowledge, he had already lost the right to use the Gulfstream G700.
“Honey, once this G550 comes back, we can travel everywhere. After get off work on Friday, we can choose any place in the world. Its range is 1.25 kilometers, so we can go anywhere in the world,” Li Wenya suggested.

“When we got married, you said you would take me on a world tour. Now it’s time for you to keep your promise!” Li Wenya added.

Anjuchun actually wanted to refuse!

Because he, Fu Yuhang, and Mo Li are conducting research on Korean ginseng, they have also discovered the cis-trans isomer and are conducting more in-depth research.

This kind of research fascinated Anhuchun!
When An Huchun, Fu Yuhang, and Mo Li were working together on their research, he felt as if he were divinely inspired, as if some unseen light was guiding the direction of their research.

This is something every researcher dreams of.

Therefore, Anju Chun instinctively wanted to refuse Li Wenya. He preferred to stay in the laboratory rather than travel the world.

But Li Wenya brought up the promise she had made, so what could An Huchun do?
Of course I agreed!

“Okay, honey, let’s embark on a round-the-world trip!” An Huchun agreed.

"You're smart to know what's good for you!" Li Wenya snorted twice.

Obviously, if An Huchun hadn't agreed, he would have definitely been taught a lesson by the Southwest Tyrannosaurus.

……

Koreia, east of the capital, south of Yang.

In a house on the eastern outskirts of Nanyang City, two young people built a makeshift warehouse and wrapped it in PET transparent film.

They are modifying drones in a makeshift warehouse.

The drones are large, fuel-powered versions of civilian drones. They not only have long flight times and large payload capacities, but more importantly, these drones have been removed from regulatory mechanisms.

"Brother Jung-soo, do you think our plan will succeed?" Choi Cheol-soo asked.

Park Jung-seo replied confidently, "Don't worry, we will definitely succeed!"

"And what about us?" Choi Cheol-soo asked cryptically.

“We won’t be exposed either,” Park Jung-seo reassured him once again.

“We only need to use drones to launch the attack. It’s not a military base there, and there’s no air defense system. The other side can’t possibly defend against us,” Park Jung-seo added.

"Trust me!" Park Jung-seo looked at Choi Cheol-soo with a resolute expression.

These two guys are planning a drone attack.
