"This is actually a private jet belonging to the Daqian Group! This is Hua Xia's first private jet, and it's a McDonnell Douglas MD-11 that costs 40 million US dollars! " After carefully analyzing the information, the dispatcher finally confirmed this news. At the same time, he was probably the first person in Hua Xia to know this news, other than the Daqian insiders.
"Some people also said that the Daqian's capital chain had collapsed and that Jia Yapeng had already run away. Now it seems that it was all a joke!" The dispatcher couldn't help but mutter as he watched the McDonnell Douglas MD-11 finally land on the ground.
"Since he's so rich, he even borrowed 10 billion US dollars from the bank. Rich people are really bastards!" The dispatcher finally concluded. Then, the chairman of the Daqian Group, Jia Yapeng, spent 40 million US dollars to buy a private jet, becoming the first person in China to own a private jet. This news spread like wildfire in China's financial and business circles at an unimaginable speed, causing all the focus and attention in China to begin to concentrate on the Daqian Group again.
Boss Jia didn't know that the news of him buying a private jet had spread so quickly in China.
In fact, Boss Jia didn't intend to buy this private jet. After all, the price was too high. It cost 40 million US dollars, and this was originally a commercial jet for civilian use. McDonnell Douglas's planes were known for being unreliable. God knew if there would be any problems with this MD-11.
However, Boss Jia agreed to buy McDonnell Douglas's plane in front of everyone in the company in order to stabilize the morale of the company.
In addition, McDonnell Douglas acted very quickly. Boss Jia originally thought that it would take at least a few months for McDonnell Douglas to get the plane and sign the contract with him.
However, he didn't expect that in just five days, the president of the Taiping region of McDonnell Douglas personally came to meet Boss Jia to sign the contract.
Boss Jia said that he would wait until he saw the plane. However, the president of the Taiping region directly said that they had a plane under the name of All Nippon Airways.
Although this plane had been in use for more than two years, because of the contraction of All Nippon Airways' business, this McDonnell Douglas plane was mostly not used. It could only collect dust in the hangar.
Therefore, McDonnell Douglas was willing to pay their own money to lease this plane back. During this period, they would let Boss Jia try it for free. If Boss Jia was not satisfied with this plane, they could give up the contract and not take a single cent.
After six months, the latest MD-11 plane produced by McDonnell Douglas was modified into a comfortable private jet, they would sign the contract with Boss Jia.
In addition, McDonnell Douglas was willing to give a private helicopter to the Daqian Group.
Since it was already so good, Boss Jia of course had nothing to say. He could only agree. Anyway, he had to buy a private jet sooner or later. Otherwise, it would be too troublesome to use civil aviation to come and go. At the same time, it would be easy to attract the attention of some people with ulterior motives. It was safer to take his own private jet. Therefore, Boss Jia agreed and became the first boss in China to own a private jet.
Originally, this honor belonged to Yuanda Corporation. In 1996, Yuanda Corporation spent 20 million RMB to buy the first Senas Jet private commercial jet in the country.
Of course, this was the first time Boss Jia took a private jet, so he didn't have his own private jet. The entire flight crew was borrowed from All Nippon Airways. There were a total of 13 flight crew members, and 6 of them were stewardesses.
Among them, 4 of them were dedicated to serving Boss Jia. As for Ma Huateng, Ma Yun, Xia Zhi Qiu Shiyu, etc., these executives of Fusang Daqian who flew back on the same plane were only taken care of by 2 stewardesses.
To be honest, when the 4 beautiful stewardesses all surrounded and knelt around Boss Jia, ready to serve him at any time, Boss Jia was very happy. For the first time, he felt that this private jet was worth the money.
In addition, this plane was not modified. It was still a commercial jet with more than 200 seats, so Boss Jia didn't experience the legendary luxury of a private jet with a private bedroom and a private swimming pool. At most, he could enjoy a business class cabin.
The cost of renting the entire flight crew was also paid by McDonnell Douglas. It was said that they had to pay a total of 5 million RMB a month, 30 million RMB in half a year, which was not a small expense.
McDonnell Douglas's attitude was already so good, but Boss Jia still felt embarrassed to refuse. In the end, 6 months later, he spent 40 million USD to buy a brand-new McDonnell Douglas MD-11 plane.
But then again, if Boss Jia knew that the prototype of the first plane crash movie in the country, which was the famous "Emergency Landing" movie, was the McDonnell Douglas MD-11, who knew how he would feel.
And if he knew that Eastern Airlines bought 5 McDonnell Douglas MD-11 planes, and two of them had an accident, how would he feel?
In the end, the five McDonnell Douglas MD-11s of Eastern Airlines couldn't even cover the cost of fuel for a business trip due to poor economy. In the end, they could only change the original civil passenger plane into a cargo plane. How did they feel then?
Well, the last one didn't matter, because Boss Jia didn't lack money.
It was worth mentioning that Boss Jia, the richest man in Hua Xia and the first owner of a private jet in China, chose to buy McDonnell Douglas's plane. Therefore, McDonnell Douglas, which was not very outstanding in the private jet field, became Hua Xia's number one private jet supplier. Later, the rich people in Hua Xia liked to learn from Boss Jia and buy a McDonnell Douglas MD-11 plane.
In the original history, McDonnell Douglas would have been acquired by General Motors, but because of the rich people in Hua Xia, McDonnell Douglas managed to survive and develop a few more planes. In the future, it would become the tenth aviation manufacturer in the world. It was a miracle!

After getting off the plane, the other executives of the Daqian Group who arrived on the same flight directly changed planes at Didu International Airport and flew back to Yuzhang to attend the annual meeting.
Boss Jia put on his sunglasses and hat and sat in the Mercedes-Benz waiting for him at the VIP exit of the airport. He sped along the roads of Didu.
"There are so many cars in Didu!" Boss Jia looked at the traffic on the road and couldn't help but exclaim.
"Yes, boss. It's at least twice as many as when we first came to Didu in 1992. In the past, when I stopped at this red light, there were never any cars in front of us. Now, there are two cars in front of us. It's a miracle!" Driver Old Yang exclaimed.
"Yes, people say that the United States is a country on wheels. Hua Xia will also be a country on wheels in the future!" Boss Jia said.
"That's impossible. I heard that every family in the United States has a car. It's impossible in China …" Old Yang laughed and waved his hand.
"Who knows!" Boss Jia shrugged. Then, he thought of something and said, "Old Yang, tell my secretary that I won't be going back to Yuzhang tomorrow. We have to go to BYD!" Boss Jia touched his nose and said.
