How can I justify myself as a Magnate if I don't indulge myself?

"Mr. Gu, right this way, please."

The representative from Airbus had a face full of respect as he led Gu Heng to their exhibition area...

Looking at several brand-new Airbus planes in front of him, Gu Heng couldn’t help but be slightly shaken...

One after another, planes of varying sizes were unveiled before everyone’s eyes.

The Airbus representative, while guiding Gu Heng towards the already positioned gangway, continued to speak, "This Airbus A380 has been in production since ’21, with the order coming from an airline company in the Middle East.

Although as of now this aircraft is only a semi-finished product, it’s just the interior decoration that’s incomplete. It’s fully flight-ready.

Mr. Gu, you can go aboard for a quick look. We’ve arranged for a professional interpreter to answer any questions you might have."

Gu Heng didn’t say much, just ascended the gangway with Ouyang Nana and Frederick Arnault.

Upon boarding the plane, Gu Heng stared at the empty cabin interior and became slightly stunned...

Is this what they call unfinished interior decoration?

It’s not decorated at all...

Just moments ago, outside, he had been admiring this mammoth creation, but now inside, they present this to him?

It’s like going to buy a house, the exterior of which is extravagantly furnished, only to open the door and find an unfinished shell—what’s there to look at then?

At this thought, Gu Heng couldn’t help but frown.

The Airbus representative, reading Gu Heng’s expression, quickly said, "Mr. Gu, although this A380 is not as luxurious as Prince Alwaleed’s private plane, it bears infinite possibilities.

Imagine for a moment, if you bought this aircraft, you could transform it into whatever you desire. Wouldn’t that give you a greater sense of accomplishment?"

Gu Heng simply waved his hand, giving up on the idea of continuing the tour, and said, "Just give me a brief introduction to the advantages of this aircraft."

After Gu Heng finished speaking, the nearby staff hurriedly began, "Mr. Gu, the Airbus A380 is the world’s largest wide-body aircraft, manufactured by Europe’s Airbus, and there is nothing else like it. Under a typical three-class configuration, it can accommodate 555 passengers, while at the highest seat density, it can carry up to 850 passengers.

Of course, since you want a private plane, how many passengers it can carry might not be seen as an advantage to you...

But!

Our Airbus A380 has a feature unmatched by other planes—its expansive interior space!

With a total cabin area of 550 square meters, roughly the size of 3 tennis courts or 1.25 basketball courts, a little bit of refurbishing would turn it into a mansion in the sky. This isn’t something other business jets can offer.

It’s precisely because of this advantage that the wealthy in the Middle East continue to place so many private plane orders with us.

On this planet, there is simply no other aircraft that could replace our Airbus A380! It is one of a kind!"

Gu Heng nodded after listening...

Having flown on an Airbus A380 himself, he greatly valued the experience...

The private airplane he’d been on with Fu Songyang was called a private plane, but it wasn’t any more comfortable than this; cramped space, not even enough room for a decent bed, let alone a large sofa.

For short domestic flights of a few hours, that might be tolerable, but on long-haul flights, that kind of private plane could not even compare to flying first class with a commercial airline.

But an Airbus A380 is different. Besides offering exceedingly private bedrooms that provide a more comfortable setting for fun and games with the air hostesses, it also has a media room, indoor golf, and other entertainment facilities...

With these conditions, it wouldn’t be an issue for someone to live aboard for a year or even longer, right?

With that in mind, Gu Heng decided not to listen to the interpreter’s introduction any longer, but instead turned to the Airbus representative and asked, "What’s the price of this aircraft?"

Frederick Arnault: "???"

Nicolas, Douglas: "???"

Ouyang Nana: "???" Experience new stories on NovelBin.Côm

Boeing, Bombardier, and Gulfstream Company representatives: "???"

Hearing Gu Heng’s words, everyone who had come aboard was full of question marks...

They knew Gu Heng was wealthy, but not to the extent of being so outrageous, right?

This was a private plane... @@novelbin@@

Moreover, one of the most expensive private planes in the world...

He had been on the plane for less than two minutes before asking for the price?

Isn’t that a little too dismissive?

Even the Airbus representative was momentarily taken aback by the question...

If it hadn’t been for Gu Heng’s expenditure of 15 million Euros the day before, and the endorsement from LV Group’s third son, making all the airline manufacturing company representatives present aware of Gu Heng’s spending ability, the representative might have doubted whether Gu Heng was just teasing them...

Doubts aside, the Airbus representative quickly responded to Gu Heng’s question.

"Based on the current market price, the Airbus A380 sells for 435 million US dollars."

"435 million US dollars..."

Gu Heng murmured the number softly...

According to the current exchange rate, this aircraft was worth 3 billion RMB...

Gu Heng suddenly felt a little apprehensive...

Even after receiving a 540 million RMB reward from the system for his 15 million Euro expenditure the day before, his current asset balance was only 1.07 billion RMB—barely enough to cover a third of it...

As for the American Express Centurion Card...

"No limit" is merely a saying; once it exceeds the risk control range, they would definitely suspend the payment on his behalf immediately.
