Chapter 224 Gulfstream IV

Georgia is located in the southeastern United States.

Due to the abundant storage of metal minerals, resource-intensive manufacturing industries such as automobiles, ships, and aircraft gather here. In addition, there is the world-famous Coca-Cola Company.

The temperature in Atlanta, the state capital, is significantly higher than that in Rhode Island. In Providence, you have to wear a jacket in the morning. When Han Xuan comes here, he feels cooler when he runs naked.

There is no airport in Savannah, and there is no passenger airport in the place where the plane is made. The old man's work is temporarily handed over to the deputy general manager of the company. He was too busy some time ago, and now everything is in an orderly manner. He took the opportunity to take a few days off.

Last night, the three national TV stations, fox, abc, and nbc, reported on the French Love Company in different spaces. The financial page of the Washington Post provided on the plane also mentioned it. It is true that the owner of the SoS Group is Chinese, but compared with those French guys, he is still considered his own family.

The Philadelphia auction was held on schedule in the morning. The price of the franchise rights for the auction not only did not decrease, but also rose slightly. No one expected that it would be a little bit. However, Carrefour did not give up yet. General Manager Anwanto said that this was not the case. Carrefour has been planning for many years and is preparing to enter the US large supermarket in the near future.

Originally, Walmart was hiding aside and laughing, but now EOGlass felt that he couldn't bear it anymore. He stood at his doorstep in his pajamas early in the morning to be interviewed by reporters, scolding Anwante as a fool. The US large supermarket was already full and the country was ready to expand outward, so only fools would come in.

Both grandfather and grandson sniffed a message from it, and Walmart was preparing to expand outward. Now Walmart has 378 retail stores in European countries such as Britain, France, Germany, etc., and its overseas turnover has accounted for 31.6% of the total turnover. Therefore, it is because its base camp was captured by the SoS Group and has not yet sent any opposition signals.

Thomas and Jeremiah were sent by Han Xuan to set up a printing factory, and it was OK to build it from scratch or buy it. The only requirement was to build it as soon as possible. The novel he was writing could be completed in two months. Han Xuan wanted to see what kind of results he could get by himself.

Inside the Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, many posters for the 26th Olympic Summer Olympics were posted. They were only held in 1996 and are now advertising.

Han Xuan thinks that the weird blue mascot is ugly no matter how you look at it. It seems that the mascot cannot be appreciated by normal people's aesthetics every time.

Gulfstream Aerospace was guarding the exit and saw the old Chinese man surrounded by a group of people, and hurriedly came up to him.

There was a middle-aged man who looked like a Jew, stretched out his hand a few meters away and walked over quickly, "Mr. Han, I am the product manager of Gulfstream Aerospace, Davedovic, the company has arranged a plane for you, and you can try it."

Looking in the direction of his finger, a plane that was several smaller than the next was parked there. It looked less than thirty meters long and had a pretty good shape. The two engines were placed side by side in the rear. The fuselage was slender.

"It is Gulfstream IV. It started to be designed in 1983 and started to produce four prototypes two years later. In 1987, it obtained the FAA model certificate and increased the range by about 40% on the basis of Gulfstream III, with a range of 7,820 kilometers.

The new engine is used to increase power, with a normal cruise speed of 850 kilometers per hour and a maximum speed of 935 kilometers per hour. It can be raised to an altitude of more than 13,000 meters. There are 21 seats. However, this is a display model, and it has been modified inside, so there can only be 8 people sitting..."

Davedovic walked forward and said, looking at the number of people present. There were more than eight bodyguards alone, and he spoke to the people behind him with embarrassment: "Leave me the information and go back by the company's helicopter."

The old man said a few words to Lopez, and assigned a few bodyguards to go with them, and got on the shuttle bus. Han Xuan asked: "How many years have the Gulfstream IV been out. How is the new aircraft developed?"

Guessing the identity of the boy, Davedovic replied seriously: "Aircraft is different from cars, and the replacement speed is not that fast. The next generation model began to be developed the year before yesterday. It has made significant progress in technology and is positioned as the world's first ultra-long-range business aircraft in the future.

It is 2.13 meters longer on the basis of Gulfstream IV, adopts new wings and tail wings, and can reach a range of 12,000 kilometers. All design work has been done, and the tentative name is Gulfstream V, and it plans to have its first test flight next year."

“How long will it take to wait for it to go on the market?”

"If nothing unexpected happens, it will take until 1997. Now Gulfstream V is the most advanced model, and it is not bad compared to old private business aircraft such as Barpondi and Dassault.

Our company has received technical support from General Dynamics and Grumman Aircraft. So far, the company has sold more than 700 Gulfstream series aircraft worldwide, and has not had any safety accidents in the past fifteen years."

"What about fifteen years ago?"

“…It’s been once or twice.”

"Okay, Han Xuan, come and have a look."

Getting off the shuttle bus, the old man smiled.

After looking around Gulfstream IV, Davedovic introduced the screw production location to the engine principle, and overall it felt pretty good.

The flight attendant opened the cabin door and stood on the folding stairs. Han Xuan was slightly stunned. Both of them were around 20 years old, so it was enough to be models based on their figure and face.

Seeing the smile of the customer, Davedovic finally said the first truth, "There is no way, business is difficult..."

The cabin decoration is bright in color.

All wood products are spades, with light gray carpets and beige seats creating a high-end atmosphere.

As expected, the four bodyguards followed in, and all three had to bend down to leave. When the flight attendant saw them, he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, so he bit his lip and stood aside.

The wide seats on both sides are placed face to face, the aisle can accommodate a person passing by. The cabin is more than ten meters long, eight seats and two tables, and a sofa. Han Xuan touched the potted plants on the table, which were also fixed.

A flight attendant came over to show it, pressed the button, and said, "The chair can rotate. Except for taking off and landing, you can sit there any time at any time. It also has a heating and massage function to relieve fatigue during long-distance flights.

The bathroom and a small lounge are at the back, and the lounge can accommodate two people."

When he spoke, the cockpit door opened, and there was a white man in his thirties. Davedovic introduced him: "The captain had more than 4,000 hours of flight experience and never had any problems. Among all the test pilots in Gulfstream, he has the most experience."

The captain smiled and stretched out his hand and said, "Hello sir, the tower notified that the departure time has come. Is it OK now?"

"Okay, take off."

Han Xuan smiled. (To be continued.)
