Chapter 155 The entire internet is shocked! Mask prices skyrocket.
Soon after, Musk sent a message:
"Jiang, the pilot has already taken off!"
"This is someone I carefully selected for you. Not only is his skill highly reliable, but he also has a stable personality, no bad habits, is very serious about his work, and is very obedient to his workplace."
Musk guaranteed it would be absolutely no problem; after all, he's an aerospace tycoon, so he has that much influence.
Airbus A380 captains are all senior pilots with relatively high salaries. Their basic monthly salary is $1.5, and they receive additional subsidies for each mission, which adds up to more than $1.8.
Yes, of course, these are minor issues!
Jiang Feng asked with satisfaction:
"OK, thank you very much, Lao Ma. How's the preparation for the super flu outbreak going? Any difficulties?"
Musk immediately expressed his sincere gratitude: "Jiang, I should be thanking you. Thanks to your reminder, our investigation of the relevant data revealed that the problem is indeed very serious."
"The spread of the super flu has accelerated significantly recently, and the number of cases has increased exponentially. It is very likely that it is already out of control."
"Fortunately, we are already prepared—"
"Medical cooperation".
"Drug inventory".
"A ventilator~"
"Mask~"
"Beds~"
"Doctor~"
"We've shifted our main production capacity to Shanghai, stockpiled enough parts in advance, and sent relevant reminders to our customers..."
"We've done everything we could!"
"Oh, by the way, Mr. Buffett, Governor Gavin, Allen Gallo, and many other friends have all expressed their gratitude to you, saying that you have helped them a lot and they all want to treat you to dinner."
Seizing this opportunity is indeed very important!
Capitalists can seek profit—
Politicians can inflate their achievements.
Merchants can earn a good reputation.
For example, American Express has already issued a warning about the risks of the pandemic to its Centurion Black Card customers.
For example, California officials have already prepared supplies, publicized the situation to citizens, recruited personnel, and made arrangements for prevention and control.
For example, Buffett is reducing his holdings in US stocks…
In their hearts, Jiang Feng's importance has been elevated once again, and they are all very willing to befriend him and build a good relationship with him!
Jiang Feng has already received their thanks.
I also asked them to help me file a report.
A certain short video platform endangers information security.
The export procedures for masks are simpler, and Gavin helped them pass through without hesitation, expressing his welcome and stating that official procurement would give priority to cooperating with Jiang Feng, offering prices no lower than the market price.
at the same time
The Russian ground crew and pilots arrived one after another, some even bringing their families.
They were all housed in villas where employees lived, and were prepared to receive the Il-476 transport aircraft and take charge of its operation.
Many people also choose to go to Good Luck Farm in the United States, report to California, and be responsible for the piloting and maintenance of helicopters such as Mi-26 and Mi-171, and usually do some odd jobs.
I need to learn how to fly more different aircraft!
In particular, passenger and cargo plane pilots should learn to fly A380 passenger planes and cargo planes, and strive to train more A380 pilots. They will receive the same treatment whether they report to the United States or China.
Anyway, I'll be changing work locations frequently.
╮(╯_╰)╭
The pilots arrived, and so did the Il-476. The Ulyanovsk Aircraft Plant, YYDS, squeezed out the two transport planes ordered by the Russian Air Force to deliver to Jiang Feng first.
The reason is actually quite simple—
After all, the Il-476 costs $8000 million to produce, and selling it would yield a profit of $1500 million. The Air Force's orders are unlikely to decrease, but if export orders disappear, that's truly the end of the world…
With $3000 million, how could they not make money?
This is cash!
No need to wait for funding!
Upon receiving the delivery notification for the [Il-476], Jiang Feng immediately led several pilots and ground crew to Wuliangye Airport to rent parking spaces and ground maintenance workstations.
Two parking spaces, annual rent of 260 million yuan!
Ground maintenance station
Freight loading and unloading station
The annual rent is 40 yuan, totaling 300 million yuan per year. Management and sanitation fees are waived, which is half the price of Chengdu Airport!
However, it was truly deserted, with fewer than twenty flights and less than a thousand passengers all day!
A contract worth a mere 300 million RMB per year.
Airport leaders actually held a signing ceremony.
It even felt quite solemn!
(￣^￣)” Feeling embarrassed～
Even the Air Force had representatives present (Wuliangye Airport is a dual-use military and civilian airport), giving Jiang Feng a lot of face.
"President Jiang is truly amazing!"
"The Russian Air Force is in dire need of Il-476 transport aircraft, and you managed to get them first. That's ruthless."
"I admire you!"
"I admire you!"
"I admire you!"
"In the future, if our air force has any urgent needs, we hope that General Jiang will do us a favor and lend it to us for emergency use."
Strategic equipment like the Il-476 must be borrowed in emergencies, and of course, it won't be borrowed for nothing!
As of 2020, China's domestically produced strategic transport aircraft has not yet completed its upgrade, and its performance is slightly inferior to that of the Il-476.
It can be called the most powerful transport aircraft in the country!
And there are only two of them!
It can carry a full load of 66 tons and fly 4200 kilometers. By reducing the load, it can increase the range to 6,000 to 7,000 kilometers, which is very impressive.
What's more, the system is 1000% secure!
Jiang Feng answered without hesitation:
"Yes, of course, no problem. If needed, I'm definitely willing to help. It's a citizen's duty."
quickly
Two Il-476 transport planes landed one after the other on the airport runway, attracting a lot of attention.
"Huh~"
"Is that a Russian Il-76 transport plane?"
"It looks brand new? That's right, it doesn't even have Air Force markings yet! That's strange, don't we already have domestically produced strategic transport aircraft? Why are we buying Russian goods?"
"Perhaps this is a foreign transport plane?"
No one recognized it as an Il-476, and no one could believe it was a strategic transport aircraft purchased by a private company!
Even Huang Yu, the owner of New Hope Aviation Logistics Company, didn't realize it was an Ilyushin Il-476, but she spotted Jiang Feng and quickly went up to greet him.
"President Jiang, what a coincidence, you're here too?"
Jiang Feng turned around and asked in surprise, "Mr. Huang, are you here to rent parking spaces too? What a coincidence!"
Huang Yu replied with a smile, "That's right, it's such a coincidence. After I transferred the parking space in Rongcheng to President Jiang, the remaining parking space wasn't enough, so I had to rent two parking spaces here."
"And you, Mr. Jiang?"
"Don't you have two parking spaces?"
"Could it be——"
Jiang Feng nodded slightly: "Yes, I also bought two strategic transport aircraft, which are more convenient for transporting heavy equipment."
When Huang Yu saw the Il-476, his heart skipped a beat. Could an ordinary person afford this thing? Was it really that awesome?
(￣ Pan￣)
She stared in disbelief, her eyelids twitching violently.
"This... a new... Il-76 transport plane?"
Jiang Feng shook his head slightly.
Huang Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
"This is the Il-476, not the Il-76. It's the latest upgraded version!" Upon hearing Jiang Feng's introduction, she felt like a duck being squeezed by the neck, her lips twitching slightly.
"President Jiang, you're really amazing. Please take care of me in the future. If you have any extra work, please ask the big boss to introduce you to some opportunities!"
Thanks!
Jiang Feng smiled and nodded thoughtfully.
"no problem!"
"Perhaps we really do need Mr. Huang's help."
Huang Yu was very happy and thanked him repeatedly, but he didn't have high hopes. After all, the air logistics business was difficult at the moment, and who had extra orders? Even the richest man didn't have surplus grain!
She was very curious about what projects Jiang Feng had.
Xu Liang was equally curious—
He watched as Deng Ning and Wei Junjie bragged in their high school classmates' group chat every day about their crazy mask-buying spree. It was said that they had stockpiled hundreds of millions of masks in just ten days, with daily payments reaching hundreds of millions!
Why did Jiang Feng do this?
"Does he want to bankrupt himself?"
"Damn, could it be that Jiang Feng has really gone mad..."
Not only Xu Liang, but also his old classmates couldn't understand it. They secretly speculated that Jiang Feng might have been traumatized by this incident and couldn't handle the blow, leading to mental problems!
tsk tsk~
That's terrible!
Many people were gleefully discussing the situation.
However, what they haven't seen yet is that news reports are already circulating online: a super flu outbreak has occurred across the United States!
Xu Liang finally couldn't hold back any longer and jumped out—
[Xu Liang @ Jiang Feng: Brother Feng, are you alright? Did something happen to you? Buying so many masks…]
He just sent the message.
News popped up in the background of my phone:
Breaking News: Major Outbreak of COVID-19 in the United States
Xu Liang: (?_?)?
