Chapter 909 This Question Is Too Terrible
The internal space was only a few cubic meters larger, with a few extra seats. Su Yehao was more concerned about its safety than any noticeable improvement in the user experience.
Due to the adoption of a brand-new electronic system, its safety was said to be further improved.
But let's be honest, this kind of thing boils down to probability and luck.
Some people travel frequently on business trips and never encounter any accidents, while others, on their first plane ride, unfortunately run into a low-probability event.
If there were a high-speed train from Pengcheng to Sijiucheng, Su Yehao would actually prefer to take the extra time, even if he had to spend money to charter the entire business class, the expense would be much less than using a private jet, and the most important thing would be safety.
Even though he was a relatively optimistic person.
Now, Su Yehao clearly realized that when it came to his own interests, they were significant enough to make people risk committing crimes.
The probability of encountering accidents in daily life was definitely much higher than in previous years.
Su Yehao held several key markets in his hands, such as immersion lithography machines, new-generation wafer foundry production, instant messaging, and search engines. He was indeed blocking the path to wealth for many people.
So, in fact, Su Yehao felt that this new plane was not as safe as the previous Gulfstream V. In addition to worrying about sabotage, he also had privacy concerns.
This kind of random speculation was actually unfounded, he simply felt that the wind was strong at the top of the mountain, and there was an lingering sense of crisis in his heart.
It wasn't just him.
Other passengers sitting in the iron box, flying at an altitude of ten thousand meters, couldn't help but wonder, feeling that life and death were out of their control, and the rest was all up to luck.
Looking at the clear blue sky and the distant disappearing horizon, a sense of insignificance always followed.
Linda Yun brought dessert in the middle of the journey, and sat down opposite Su Yehao. Seeing him staring out of the porthole in a daze, she asked curiously, "Ah-hao, what are you thinking about, you look so serious and focused."
Su Yehao supported his chin, looked down at the thin white clouds below, and replied:
"I'm thinking that people are too small. A mere few decades or a hundred years is fleeting and has no impact when placed in the entire history of the earth. As strong as the dinosaurs were back then, tens of millions of years have passed since their extinction. The dinosaur era, which lasted for more than 100 million years, disappeared as soon as it disappeared. We are ultimately just ants, and we can't find any hope of changing this."
Linda Yun clicked her tongue and shook her head, saying:
"This question is too terrible, I dare not think about it in detail. The more you think about it, the more you're just creating trouble for yourself. If even you say such things, how are other people supposed to live their lives? Anyway, in the end, no one can escape the same ending, so it's even more meaningless. It seems pretty good to enjoy yourself while you can, like you are doing now. This tells us that we should cherish our limited time."
"I'm just feeling a little emotional, of course I won't obsess over it, mainly because it's useless to obsess over it."
Su Yehao took a spoonful of tiramisu and continued:
"In recent years, the mainland has been building highways everywhere, and trillions of national debt have been invested to avoid economic growth from stagnating. It has both vision and courage. This move can be considered a correct one. When the preliminary development is completed in recent years, they can find new infrastructure fields to invest money in. In the future, they may build high-speed railways all over the country."
Linda Yun said:
"I quite like flying, the journey of thousands of kilometers is just a whoosh away. The sofa in the new plane is even more comfortable, and it also has seat ventilation and massage functions, my back feels so cool."
"You like anything as long as you don't have to work, right?"
"How can you say that? Isn't accompanying you on a trip considered a business trip? I'm already being considerate by not asking you for overtime pay. When we get to Sijiucheng, don't forget to take me out for a big meal, I'll help you block a few drinks, beer or red wine, but forget about baijiu..."
——————————
The speed of a private business jet is relatively fast. It only took two hours and forty minutes to fly from Hong Kong City to Sijiucheng.
After landing, they walked through the international arrival exit.
Other private cars were not allowed to park on the side of the road for a long time. Su Yehao's driver mentioned Su Yehao's name, and the traffic police looked at the uniform luxury cars and didn't ask any more questions. Instead, they contacted their colleagues to send someone to help maintain order.
When Su Yehao appeared, still drowsy, someone was already helping, riding a motorcycle to lead the way.
And the news of his arrival quickly spread among some interested people. Whether they wanted to attract investment or seek financing, they didn't want to miss the opportunity to get close to Su Yehao.
He called his father, only to find out that he hadn't left yet. His friends had asked him to play mahjong, and he couldn't turn down the offer since they were one person short.
Su Yehao was speechless at this reason.
He took a car directly to No. 23 Dongjiaomin Lane, Qianmen. The newly built gate was very grand. On a black and gold gate, were the five characters "Sihai Club".
After the security guard opened the door and let them in.
The area of the courtyard inside was a little smaller than Su Yehao had imagined, about three thousand square meters. He saw at a glance the fountain in the middle of the courtyard that his father said had cost several million to build.
The design was roughly a strong man without a shirt standing on a chariot, pulling nine bronze dragons, and letting them be responsible for pulling the chariot.
The sculpture was surrounded by pools of water, which were not used for raising fish, and were surrounded by lawns.
At first glance, it was quite imposing.
There were a total of five buildings, all of which had been renovated inside and out. They looked a bit plain, but the location of this place was particularly excellent. If you turned right when you went out, you would be at Zhengyang Gate, which gave it a sense of low-key luxury.
Su Yehao got out of the car and wandered around, and found that the first floors of the five buildings had been opened up to add connecting passages.
It was probably for the sake of comfort, to avoid guests having to pass through the courtyard in the hot summer or cold winter to enter the other buildings.
Due to the lack of parking spaces, the cars could only be parked next to the passages, which looked a bit messy.
Su Yehao only found out after asking that the surrounding area was full of official units, or protected cultural relics-level old buildings, and there was no way to expand it.
The guests who came basically had drivers, so there was no need to pay too much attention to the parking problem. Anyway, there probably wouldn't be too many guests at the club on weekdays, so it was barely enough.
Under the leadership of the club manager, he visited the clubhouse, restaurant, and guest rooms. The interior decoration was basically a five-star luxury hotel, in a simple European style.
After habitually looking around, Su Yehao learned that his father had reserved a small building for himself and renovated it for use as a villa.
The area was not large to begin with, and it was such a waste. It would actually be better to take another old house from the Republic of China or a siheyuan nearby.
After a brief look, he felt that it was a little too simple.
Fortunately, for institutions like clubs, more emphasis was placed on soft power than on hardware facilities, so it was barely enough.
Su Yehao called Miss Vera again and learned that she was at the art gallery. He asked the club manager for directions and took a car to find her to play.
Vera's work attitude was still responsible, and she would personally receive some interested potential buyers.
It was just a pity that her Mandarin level was not very good. Communicating with people in Cantonese, English, or Portuguese, most of the time she could only talk nonsense. It was quite boring on the mainland, and she couldn't even find an acquaintance.
When she learned that Su Yehao was coming, Vera was very happy and came to wait for him at the entrance of the exhibition hall in advance...
