CHAPTER 299: CHAPTER 299 SPECTACULAR! 10 BOEING 747S LAND SIMULTANEOUSLY

Oh my God!

Chairman Lin Fan not only wants to buy airplanes, he wants to buy Boeing 747s!

Not only does he want to buy Boeing 747s, he wants to buy 10 of them at once!

The Boeing 747, the largest commercial aircraft on Earth, has monopolized the civilian large transport aircraft market for decades. Moreover, it’s the most expensive civilian airliner on Earth, with each costing as much as 2 billion Huaxia Coin!

Ten Boeing 747s, totaling 20 billion Huaxia Coin!

This is the largest investment in the history of civil aviation.

And such a huge investment was casually announced by Lin Fan just now.

It left everyone present utterly flabbergasted.

Li Hongting almost fell out of his seat.

Too extravagant!

Lin Fan’s decision is simply too extravagant.

Even if the market value of Celestial Aviation has recently surged to 90 billion, spending 20 billion in cash to buy airplanes is extremely exaggerated.

After recovering from his shock, Li Hongting’s first reaction was disbelief.

Either Lin Fan really doesn’t know how expensive airplanes are or he’s joking with everyone.

Judging by Lin Fan’s demeanor, he seems to know the price of airplanes, so it can only be said that Lin Fan is joking with everyone.

After all, he’s too young, and this isn’t an appropriate occasion for jokes, especially for this kind of joke.

Li Hongting said, "Chairman, you can’t joke around like that. The price of ten Boeing 747s is as high as 20 billion. Our company simply can’t afford it. However, the chairman’s direction is correct. The so-called cost-saving and revenue-increasing; if we can indeed purchase more airplanes, it can indeed resolve the issue of slowing profit growth."

Upon Li Hongting’s words, the directors came back to their senses, realizing that the chairman was joking with them!

"You scared me, I almost thought we were really buying ten Boeings!"

"So it was a joke!"

"The chairman is really humorous!"

"Haha..."

Everyone started laughing.

All present were seasoned professionals in the workplace and, realizing the chairman was joking, naturally played along and chuckled.

Lin Fan was slightly sweaty; he’d been telling the truth, yet no one believed him.

"I’m not joking. I do plan to purchase 10 Boeing 747s, yes, indeed it requires a 20 billion investment, which is a bit much, but it’s okay, the money is my personal investment. In fact, I’ve already bought the airplanes." Lin Fan said calmly.

"Haha..."

The conference room burst into loud laughter, with everyone laughing heartily.

They thought Lin Fan was continuing his joke, so the whole team was very entertained and laughed along cooperatively.

The punchline of this joke was in the last sentence.

"I’ve already bought the airplanes, hahaha..."

"It’s just too funny!"

"The chairman is indeed so humorous!"

"I’m laughing so hard I’m gonna crap myself!"

"I’m laughing so much my stomach hurts! I can’t take it; I’m gonna laugh until I faint!"

Li Hongting laughed until tears ran down his face, saying, "Chairman, please stop joking, everyone’s gone crazy with laughter. The chairman said he’s bought the airplanes, where would they be? They couldn’t possibly be stored at home, right? Oh, the chairman must be talking about ten airplane models."

"Hahaha..."

The room erupted in laughter.

Lin Fan felt a bit helpless; he’d been speaking the truth. The system rewarded him with ten Boeing 747s, there’s no falsity. He couldn’t reveal they were system rewards, so he phrased it as if he’d bought them.

But, no one believed him; perhaps they thought he couldn’t possibly have the capability to buy ten Boeing 747s.

At this moment, someone knocked on the door, and the secretary Zhao Jiayi walked in.

"Chairman, there are three foreigners outside requesting to see you. The leader claims to be Mr. Roosevelt, the president of Boeing Company, and wishes to meet with you personally regarding the airplane purchase," Zhao Jiayi said.

Zhao Jiayi wore an utterly dumbfounded expression.

Suddenly, foreigners claiming to be the president of Boeing Company requested to see him without prior appointment—completely unexpected.

Lin Fan gave an "oh" and said, "Please let them in."

Zhao Jiayi said, "Alright."

Then she turned and left.

The laughter quieted down for a moment, and everyone looked at each other—what was going on?

The president of Boeing Company requested a meeting?

Soon, Zhao Jiayi led in three foreigners in suits, led by a tall middle-aged man.

Zhao Jiayi introduced, "Chairman, this is Mr. Roosevelt, the president of Boeing Company. Mr. Roosevelt, this is our chairman, Mr. Lin Fan."

Roosevelt was somewhat surprised to see Lin Fan because Lin Fan was much younger than he’d imagined.

"Mr. Lin Fan, hello, I’m Roosevelt, president of Boeing Company," Roosevelt said while proactively extending his hand.

Lin Fan also extended his hand and shook hands with Roosevelt, "Nice to meet you."

Roosevelt said, "Mr. Lin, I noticed you were in a meeting, so I’ll get straight to the point. Mr. Lin has purchased 10 Boeing 747s from our Boeing Company, which have now arrived over the airport. I specifically came to confirm receipt with Mr. Lin."

Roosevelt signaled to his two assistants, who got busy—one operating a laptop, and the other handing Roosevelt a document.

Roosevelt took the document and handed it to Lin Fan.

Lin Fan saw it was a purchase contract, and with just his signature, the ten Boeing 747s would belong to him.

Without hesitation, Lin Fan signed his name.

He officially owned 10 Boeing 747s.

Roosevelt then pulled out his phone and made a call, "Mr. Lin has confirmed; you may proceed with landing."

At the airport.

A spectacular scene unfolded.

Ten brand new Boeing 747 planes descended from the sky, landing one after another at the airport. This scene attracted countless onlookers.

Everyone was astonished.

This was simply spectacular; such a magnificent scene hadn’t been seen in years, 10 Boeing 747s appearing at the same time!

Incredible!

People started discussing fervently—what on earth was going on?

"Oh my God, amazing!"

"10 Boeings landing simultaneously; what a magical event!"

"Don’t tell me someone bought ten Boeing 747s!"

"What a joke, who could possibly buy 10 Boeing 747s at once!"

"Blatant bragging!"

No one believed that someone would actually purchase 10 Boeing 747s!

In the Celestial Aviation Headquarters conference room.

One of Roosevelt’s assistants connected to the airport live scene, and through aerial footage, the directors saw the magnificent scene.

There truly were ten Boeing 747s landing!

Roosevelt once again shook hands with Lin Fan, smiling, "Mr. Lin, congratulations, the ten Boeing 747s were delivered successfully. This is the largest deal our Boeing Company has had in recent years. Our headquarters attached great importance to it, so they sent me personally to complete the handover with Mr. Lin. Mr. Lin, your gesture has shocked everyone at our headquarters."

Lin Fan smiled slightly, "Congratulations to you too, Mr. Roosevelt, and Boeing Company. This purchase of ten Boeing 747s is just a small plan of mine. I believe Boeing planes won’t disappoint me. If there’s a need later, we’ll meet again."

Roosevelt almost kneeled before Lin Fan!

Damn!

Ten Boeing planes were only a small plan?

Even the dignified president of Boeing Company was almost shocked to the point of trembling by Lin Fan.

And at this moment, the entire conference room was deathly silent, with all the directors already petrified.
