Moreover, this aircraft has a particularly great advantage over other business jets, that is, it has better climbing performance and can take off on a shorter runway.
This is in line with the special situation of Sunset Town Airport. After all, Wang Bo owns a small airport with only one super-long runway. However, since passenger planes from airports in several big cities have to use it, there are not many opportunities left for him to use it.
In addition, the Learjet 40XR business jet has high fuel efficiency, and provides advanced control system and fuselage structure, which facilitates the pilot's driving and maintenance to the greatest extent. This is also in line with Wang Bo's situation. Professional pilots have to be recruited.
Wang Bo looked at the configuration of the plane. There are 7 large leather seats in the cabin. Most of its space is designed as a small living room, with a kitchen and bathroom at the back, which are fully equipped.
In terms of price, it is in the middle price range, just over 10 million New Zealand dollars. Eurocopter is now cooperating with them, so Cato can apply to the company and buy it through Eurocopter, which can save a lot of money.
Wang Bo happily placed a deposit, and that was the plane.
The agent told him: "Business jets need to be ordered before they start production, which is much slower than helicopters only needing decoration, so you may have to wait more."
Wang Bo asked, "How long will it take?"
The agent shrugged and said, "It may take four months before it can be delivered to your house."
Wang Bo nodded and said, "That's no problem."
As it happens, Eva will be almost due to give birth in five months, and if she needs to fly to Auckland to give birth, she will be able to use this plane.
In one weekend, Wang Bo finished his daughter-in-law's birth checkup, purchased two planes, and returned smoothly. It cost him 20 million New Zealand dollars in two days!
But he didn't care. After the airport was repaired, local tyrants in the Middle East began to select excellent breeding males and females from Sunset Ranch and send them to Safi Ranch, which brought him a lot of income.
Wang Bo allowed them to choose, and promised that no matter what problems happened to these animals within one year, they could be sent back to the female animals for replacement.
Of course, he doesn't care about the travel expenses.
The Safi Ranch was overjoyed with this condition. The males and females of the Sunset Ranch are worth a lot of gold. Having this exchange right means that they can do it with confidence.
Over the past few years, relying on all kinds of extra money plus real estate and ranches, Wang Bo has accumulated a net worth of 500 million.
And recently, the tourism industry in Sunset Town has taken off. As long as he has a car to drive on Route 8, he will have income. Sunset Town has successfully completed the task and it has become Wang Bo's money-making machine.
Even better, at this moment, a travel agency came to the door.
Don't look at New Zealand as a big tourist country, but the New Zealand government does not have any travel company license restrictions.
In other words, anyone can register a New Zealand company that serves tourism or tourists as its service object and source of income, and operates and promotes it in the name of a tourism company, which is not illegal.
However, major travel agencies in New Zealand have spontaneously organized an industry self-regulatory association, its name is TravelAgents'Association of New Zealand, or TAANZ for short.
The person who came to Sunset Town was one of the directors of TAANZ, board member Ricky Rudolph, an old gentleman who was nearly eighty years old.
TAANZ was born in 1962. Although Ricky Rudolph was not the founder, he was an early member of the board of directors and has a great reputation in the entire New Zealand tourism circle.
When Wang Bo saw him, he was like an ordinary elderly tourist, strolling by the side of the road in a colorful beach T-shirt and sunglasses.
The two met by chance at the entrance of the cold drink shop. This season, the cold drink shop is always overcrowded, and there is a long queue of people waiting to get cold drinks at the window.
Naturally, Wang Bo didn't have to wait in line, and he didn't care if someone said he was using his privileges, so he went in and said to Bill Dengtai, the bartender backstage, "Give me a glass of frozen sparkling soda, the damn weather, my skin is going to burn. .”
At this moment, he noticed Ricky Rudolph who was going to line up. Seeing an old man queuing up under the scorching sun, he felt a little pitiful, so he nodded to him and said, "Hey, buddy, what do you want? I'll help you." .”
Someone next to him booed him jokingly: "Mayor Wang, you have privileges."
Wang Bo took a picture of a fifty-yuan note and said, "Look, I gave you the money. This is not a privilege."
The old man came over with a smile and said, "Do you want to buy me a drink?"
Wang Bodao: "If you say something that makes me happy, I'd like to ask you."
The old man said: "TAANZ is going to include Sunset Town in New Zealand's key tourism projects, and it may recommend this tourist attraction to all tourism agencies under its jurisdiction."
Wang Bo didn't even realize it for a while: "TAANZ? Who is that?"
Hearing this, the old man smiled wryly, and said, "I'm relieved to hear you say that. I'm also worried that you recognized me and bribed me with drinks."
Wang Bo was taken aback by these words, and quickly asked Bill Dengtai in a low voice: "Bill, who is this old gentleman? Xuete, what kind of celebrity is he in New Zealand?"
Bill Dengtai was confused: "I don't know him."
The old man didn't hear the whispered conversation between the two, so he stretched out his hand and said, "Hello, Mayor Wang, I'm Ricky Rudolph."
Hearing this name, 'Rudolph' is not a very common surname. At this time, when he thought of the name TAANZ, he suddenly showed a surprised expression: "God, the TAANZ you are talking about is not that TAANZ?"
"Maybe, as far as I know there is only one TAANZ in New Zealand." The old man laughed.
This is a distinguished guest, so Wang Bo quickly asked Rudolph to sit down. There were no more seats in the cold drink shop, so he asked the old man to sit at the counter.
TAANZ is an alliance, and it can also be said to be a platform. Travel agencies that can join TAANZ, whether they are travel agencies, travel brokers or actual tour operators, must promise to provide high-standard, high-quality, safe, reliable and professional services .
It implements a strict review system for all members, and those who do not meet the standards cannot join it, and as long as they join it, it means that they will get huge resources.
The TAANZ review system is very strict, but this cannot stop the determination of tourism agencies to join.
Because as long as you join this alliance, with its coordination and help, you can share potential business opportunities and resources with other businesses.
In addition, members can identify themselves as members of TAANZ on their own marketing materials and website, which can be better recognized by consumers.
