Chapter 1331: Who Could It Be?

After the convoy entered the highway, it slowly rose and entered the maglev track.

With the gradual expansion of overseas exports of maglev roads by Future Heavy Industries, there were no more vehicles on the roads of Yoto, because most vehicles, except buses and trains, floated in the sky. Now not only the Luer Group but also internationally renowned automobile brands such as Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, Tesla, Toyota also begun to enter the maglev car market.

The core of the magnetic levitation technology was mainly on the pillars underneath the highway. On the contrary to popular belief, the technical difficulties of the maglev vehicle were not particularly high. After top international auto manufacturers obtained the relevant patent from Future Heavy Industries, they could also manufacture vehicles capable of meeting the standard of the maglev roads.

Jiang Chen was fully aware that he could not monopolize the market, so he was not stingy in technology licensing, just like when he opened the technology licensing the graphene. Fifty percent of the world’s chips now used architecture derived from Future Technology. The same was true for maglev cars, except that almost 100% of maglev cars used the “Future Standards.”

In addition to allowing major auto manufacturers to be labeled as Future Heavy Industries, this decision also brought huge profits to Future Group.

Take Mercedes-Benz as an example. For every maglev series vehicle produced by Mercedes-Benz, it not only had to obtain quality certification from Future Heavy Industries before it could be sold, but the company also had to pay a technology licensing fee of one percent on the price of the vehicle before tax.

In the vehicle, Jiang Chen called Ayesha to inform her that he landed safely.

Just as he was about to hang up, he received another call.

When he saw the name on the holographic screen, he took an extra second to read the name again before he picked up the call.

“That plane is yours?” Yerif immediately asked as soon as the call was connected.

“Plane?” Jiang Chen was confused as he didn’t understand the question, “Which place are you referring to?”

The Aurora-20? Or a Russian fighter?

He instinctively linked Yerif’s words with the situation in Syria.

Yerif had an odd expression when he heard the confusion in Jiang Chen’s tone.

“…You didn’t look at the news?”

“I just arrived in Yoto, on the car back to my hotel, what news are you talking about.” Jiang Chen facepalmed.

“Wait, I’ll send you a link, see for yourself…”

Yerif hung up shortly after.

Not long after, his watch buzzed, and an email was sent to Jiang Chen’s email address.

There was only a link in his mail. From the domain name, it was from YouTube

With full of confusion in his mind, Jiang Chen clicked on the video.

The video was from a waiting lounge at an airport.

Probably because it was shot with a phone, the quality of the video was poor. The person who shot the video was obviously not a professional photographer as the camera was shaking. However, the unreasonable part was how viral the video became.

Jiang Chen paid attention to the time when the video was uploaded.

In less than an hour, the number of views exceeded one million.

Even with YouTube’s traffic, it still shocked him.

Just then, Jiang Chen suddenly paused.

Because he saw a familiar outline in the video.

Wait, Isn’t this my G100?

There was a dumbfounding expression on his face. He understood the reason why Yerif called. His tone sounded so serious that he thought something must have happened in Syria. After the mercenaries from Madagascar arrived in Syria, the Aurora-20s would fly over to “check in” every day.

Jiang Chen slid down the screen and glanced through the comments section.

Many people recognized from the logo on the plane that it was a product of Future Heavy Industries. Although people were no longer surprised by the dark technology of the Future Group, they were still amazed by the fact that he rode an aerospace plane.

[The richest man is indeed rich. He takes an aerospace plane for longer trips]

[I just want to know how much this plane costs? Although I can’t afford it even if I know…]

[Haha, interesting, Future Heavy Industries is looking to steal business from Gulfstream. Following the automotive industry, is the aviation industry going to experience a bloodbath?]

[To be honest, if this thing is not expensive, it will sell like crazy…]

[I feel that my future has been contracted by Future Group.]

Jiang Chen shook his head with a smile when he saw the top comments, then he called Yerif back.

“My friend, now you know which plane I am talking about.” Yerif grinned.

“I see,” Jiang Chen made a helpless expression, “I guess, you are planning to buy one too?”

“TEN!”

Jiang Chen almost choked as he had to cough to conceal his shocked state.

“Do you know how much one costs?”

“How much?” Yerif was taken aback.

“I will provide you the personnel training and supporting maintenance equipment for free. This Aerospace-100 is the price of five Gulfstream G650s.”

Five Gulfstreams?!

Yerif brows twitched.

Even if the Saudi Royal Family was rich, it was also royal money. Now old king viewed Yerif positively, if everything continued smoothly, he would be the next king. But at this moment, if he spent more than 3 billion Xin New dollars to buy ten private jets, even the old king would probably rethink this decision.

“Then… let’s have two.” Yerif debated for a moment and decided to pay for it out of his own pocket, “I want them in black, you know, in our country, black represents nobleness. One of them will be plated with my father’s name in gold. I plan to give it to my father as a birthday present…”

As the richest man in the world, the old king lacked nothing. Every year Yerif had to think hard about his birthday because he really didn’t know what to give. He gave an elephant the year before last year. Last year his brother gifted a tiger. This year, there seemed to be another lion, so he couldn’t just gift more pets. The palace was almost becoming a zoo!

“Ahem, please send it to my mailbox with your requirements,” Jiang Chen interrupted him and said, “I can’t remember all in my head.”

“Thank you! My friend,” Yerif said gratefully. “This is a great help to me.”

Is it that serious?

Jiang Chen shook his head while containing his grin, then he hung up.

The hotel where he stayed was one of his assets, and it was only two blocks away from the National Stadium. From the floor-to-ceiling windows in the presidential suite on the top floor of the hotel, the runway and greenfield were even visible.

After Jiang Chen arrived in the room along with the hotel waiter, he tossed his suit on the hanger. He was about to take a shower first, and then lay down and rest for a while. The bodyguards downstairs called his watch and said that someone who claimed to be a reception commissioner sent by the government was visiting.

Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow as he recalled what Foreign Minister Kishida said to him at the airport.

Then he casually said, “Let him up.”

“Yes.”

Who could it be?

He was very curious.
