Chapter 1427: 1427 The Law of Splurge
Hugo walked into the cabin, and a middle-aged man in a dark blue uniform greeted him and gave Hugo a friendly hug with a smile, "Nice to meet you, Mr. Lancaster, I am Daniel. Aldean, the captain of this flight."
Hugo thinks it is very novel. For people such as aircraft captains and warship captains who need strong professional skills, there is always a sense of admiration in their hearts. Imagine that when you get on the plane, your life will be handed over. The captain and the co-pilot are given two people, and it's a very delicate feeling that you meet such people face to face at this moment.
After meeting the crew, Hugo walked into the cabin. The bright brown wood was paired with off-white leather. The sunlight pouring down from the window made everything around him shimmer, which was different from what he usually saw. There is a four-seater deck sofa on the left side of the plane, a bar counter on the right side, a brown leather sofa behind the deck, and four side-by-side armchairs on the opposite side of the leather sofa. In addition to a four-person card seat sofa, there is actually a slot machine!
"Wow!" Although Hugo felt that he had already glimpsed a corner of the rich life world, but after he really got in touch, he realized that this is a completely different world, and his level of beginners is still too much.
Alan Strello, who was standing beside the sofa, saw Hugo's exclamation, with a satisfied smile on his face, "I hope this flight will be smooth. By the way, if you need to, you can also go to the inside. Bedroom rest." Allen pointed to the direction of the tail of the plane.
Hugo nodded his chin slightly, "It seems that the first class is not on the same level as this, right? The cowboy finally walked out of the ranch." This joke made Allen laugh, and Samora couldn't help but laugh. Can't wait to go to the tail to confirm.
Open the wooden door at the tail, you can see a spacious extra-large double bed, even if three people sleep on it, it will not be crowded. There are some cabinets on both sides, which can be vaguely placed on it. some daily necessities. The whole room is based on navy blue, matched with dark blue and navy blue, which reveals sophistication in the steadiness, and the whole design is quite fashionable.
This time Hugo participated in the Berlin Film Festival, which was decided long ago. However, Hugo originally planned to take an ordinary passenger plane, and Rick also prepared a set of speeches, but Alan unexpectedly learned about it from Kevin, and he sent an invitation to Hugo: he happened to be because of some personal affairs. , I need to go back to Germany. If Hugo doesn't mind, he can take his private jet to go there, so that the round-trip time can be controlled, and it is obviously much more convenient.
This time, the people who accompanied Hugo included Joseph and Samora, as well as four security guards - the eight security guards at the airport just now and half of them were Allen's personal bodyguards. The whole team took a private jet. Well arranged.
"Thank you for letting me experience this unknown world." Hugo said to Alan with a smile.
"We are friends, aren't we?" Allen asked back, causing Hugo to raise his eyebrows slightly, then pursed his lips and nodded his chin, which made the smile on Allen's face sketched again, "Actually, if You can also buy a private jet of your own if you want."
"Me? No way... Private jets are too expensive." Hugo chose a spot on the armchair and sat down.
Allen sat down on the long sofa directly opposite Hugo, "No, no, you have absolutely no problem." Allen said enthusiastically, "Now a private jet has various prices, two thousand Five million dollars can buy the most advanced and trendy car. The annual maintenance fee is not expensive, you entrust an airline, and they maintain it for you; then hire professional pilots, technicians, flight suits People, plus aircraft maintenance, repairs, and gas prices, it's almost $2 million a year."
Hugo couldn't help but stunned. When he bought a villa before, he spent 10 million in one day, and he thought it was too exaggerated, but compared with Allen, he was really insignificant. Joseph, who didn't want to sit beside him, pondered for a while, "Well, it's a lot cheaper than I thought."
"Joe?" Hugo looked at Joseph in surprise. Why did he think the money was sky-high?
Joseph gave Hugo a calm look, "You should really look at your bank book." This made Hugo immediately embarrassed. He was really not familiar with finance and numbers, just like company management. So Hugo really didn't know how much money he had. "If you want, you can actually buy a football team in the second league."
Hugo has really made a lot of money over the years. In addition to the 30 million-level box office of "Speed of Life and Death" and "Pulp Fiction", the basic salary of "Seven Deadly Sins" plus box office dividends totaled 1,870. Of course, we must not forget the 20 million contract of EMI Records, and the $70 million profit from the "Road to Glory" tour, which is not a small sum even if the five members are divided equally.
Even though Hugo's spending has started to increase in the last six months, he still has a net worth of hundreds of millions, and buying a private jet is really nothing to him. As Joseph said, even if Hugo intends to buy a football team in the second league, there is no problem - as for the first league, if you don't have a billion-dollar net worth, don't mix it.
"Secondary league? Forget it. If I really want to buy it, I'll buy an NFL team." Hugo's muttering made Allen laugh, but Joseph ignored it and said seriously, " I think you might think about it, now that every time you go to New York or other places, the itinerary is more troublesome, and if you have a world tour plan to the death of glory, a private jet will be very convenient."
Hugo waved his hand, "If it's a band tour, you might as well buy a luxury travel trailer." Glory to Death is always a band walking on the road. Compared with a luxurious and comfortable private jet, the yellow sand is full of sand, day and night. An upside-down road trip was their choice. "But..." Hugo thought for a moment in silence, "Do you think Cheyenne can provide private jet landing services?"
Cheyenne, just a short drive from Lanches, Hugo still considered Adam's situation.
Joseph understood right away, and couldn't help showing a smile. Allen didn't know why, but it didn't prevent him from giving his opinion, "Actually, in principle, any airport can be landed, but you need to confirm with the air traffic control bureau. I personally think that you entrust your private jet to a company. The most comprehensive airline, when you need to fly to Cheyenne or other cities in the world, it will save you a lot of trouble to have this airline take care of connecting you with the local airport and get the takeoff and landing clearance.”
Hugo nodded his chin. If he wanted to go home often, he felt that buying a private jet would be a good choice. Of course, in a situation like today, a private jet is also very convenient. "Sure enough, if you want to spend money, there are endless places in the world to splurge."
Hugo's exclamation made Alan laugh, "If you want, you can buy an island and build it into paradise as you want. An island can range from $50,000 to $100 million. It's up to you to choose." This made everyone laugh, and while talking and laughing, Allen's eyes caught the reporters who were being expelled on the tarmac, and he couldn't help but raised his chin, "Are those reporters really okay? ?"
Hugo looked back at the reluctant reporters, but his expression was not too worried, "Dealing with reporters is a skill, I haven't fully learned it yet, but... Today's matter should be no problem. "Hugo is telling the truth, although he now seems to have the upper hand in every confrontation with reporters, the beauty of Hollywood is that what will happen tomorrow is never certain, not even Hugo. What's more, this time Rick faced the deeply rooted Hollywood Foreign Press Association, and it was difficult for Hugo to determine what the outcome would be.
However, even if Rick's plans fail, it won't cause too much damage, because the Golden Globe Awards or the Endeavour Elite Agency are still organizations whose interests come first, and their final destination is the actors. Ancillary value, so the problem returns to the original point: as long as the actor's work can continue to be successful, then he will take the initiative. Hugo or Brad, it's the same.
"This time your absence from the Golden Globes...is it intentional?" Allen hesitated for a moment and asked curiously.
This surprised Hugo. Allan has always kept a certain distance humbly and politely, which is also in line with Hugo's impression of Germans, such as Roland Emmerich. But thinking about it carefully, the reason why Allen is asking now is because the relationship between them is closer, and curiosity is inevitable.
Thinking of this, Hugo also pursed his lips slightly, pulled out a smile, and then shrugged, "Who knows, maybe from the beginning, the Golden Globes didn't want me to attend?"
This was an obvious answer, which made Allen laugh meaningfully.
At this moment, Captain Daniel walked in and said with a smile, "Gentlemen and ladies, our plane is about to take off in ten minutes, please take your seats and fasten your seat belts. Safety matters will be instructed by the purser, thank you for your cooperation."
Then Daniel stepped aside, and a woman in a white shirt and dark blue uniform appeared in front of everyone, with a graceful figure, deep facial features, a charming smile, and an elegant temperament, "Gentlemen, may I ask everyone Are you ready?" That gentle voice made the warm sunshine outside the window a little brighter.
