Chen Zhao finally got his driver's license. It is quite easy to get a driver's license in the United States.
Chen Zhao has practiced in the driving school for more than fifty hours. On the one hand, it is to accumulate driving hours in the driving school, and on the other hand, Chen Zhao is really a complete novice.
Driving lessons in driving schools charge by the hour, a few dollars per hour.
It costs twenty dollars per hour to hire an instructor from a driving school. Of course, it can also be an adult with a driver's license. Anyone can do it.
However, driving schools in the United States are a very realistic place. The more money you make for them, the easier it will be for you.
And if it is sent to someone like Chen Zhao who only has a green card, he is not yet an official American citizen. The application for a driver's license has always been delayed.
It may take a month, or it may take half a year to receive your driver's license.
Then came the written test, which Chen Zhao passed in one go.
In fact, what took the most time was to make an appointment for the road test. It was not until the fifth day in line that it was Chen Zhao's turn, which was also done in one go.
After waiting for a week, I received my driver's license.
After Chen Zhao got his driver's license, the first thing he thought of was buying a car.
"David, are you free?"
"do what?"
"Come shopping for a car with me."
"Okay, where are you first?"
Not long after, David picked up Chen Zhao.
"Chen, what car are you going to buy?"
"I want to give Fali a car first. Her car is too old, so you can help me think about what model is suitable for her."
"So what's your budget?"
"As long as it's not the kind that costs millions or tens of millions of dollars, that's fine." Chen Zhao said.
It is relatively cheap to buy a car in the United States, and David's introduction in this regard is obviously more professional than Normans.
At least he won't introduce that kind of rugged SUV to Chen Zhao. David's proposal is mainly about sports cars, which are more suitable for women's lines and beauty.
David has talked about everything from sports car models that cost tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars.
David is probably also a car fan. I can’t say how professional he is. At least he has a thorough analysis of the approximate emissions, horsepower, and performance of each model.
"A model that is too expensive, regardless of whether you can afford it, first of all, is not suitable for Fali's temperament. Fali is a member of the Coast Guard. If she drives a car worth one or two million dollars, it will be too conspicuous, so I My suggestion is that the price is between 200,000 and 300,000 US dollars.”
A car worth 200,000 to 300,000 US dollars is already a high-end luxury car.
In the United States, anything over thirty thousand dollars is considered a luxury car. Of course, if a car worth tens of thousands of dollars was given as a gift, Chen Zhao felt it was too low.
This is because Chen Zhao has a bit of a nouveau riche mentality. He feels that since he wants to give something away, of course he has to give something better.
Two hundred thousand to three hundred thousand US dollars is considered to be within Chen Zhao's psychological price range.
"I recommend Aston Martin DB11 AMR, the latest model in 2018."
Chen Zhao used his mobile phone to search for photos and official descriptions of the Aston Martin DB11 AMR. This model can be obtained for a minimum of 180,000 US dollars, and if you want a high-end version, the maximum price is no more than 250,000 US dollars.
Chen Zhao likes the model of this car very much, and the price is also suitable.
As for the car's performance, Chen Zhao couldn't understand it at all.
But since David recommended this model, it shouldn’t be bad.
"This is the car." Chen Zhao made a decision immediately.
"Then we are going to the specialty store to look at the car now?"
"good."
…
Chen Zhao walked into the store. This Aston Martin store is very large, and there are more than a dozen models of various models displayed in the hall, and there is a huge test track behind it.
When Chen Zhao and David entered the store, a tall and beautiful woman wearing business clothes came forward.
"Hello, I'm Paris, how can I help you?"
"We want to try the Aston Martin DB11 AMR. Do you have one here?"
"Of course." Paris's eyes lit up: "Which one of you needs to buy a car?"
"it's me… "
"We still need to take a look first." David interrupted Chen Zhao.
Paris looked at Chen Zhao, her eyes blazing with fire.
If you can afford an Aston Martin DB11 AMR, you must be rich.
"What would you two like to drink?"
"Ice water."
"Me too."
After giving them a glass of ice water, Paris took them to the Aston Martin DB11 AMR exhibition car.
Then he began to explain the various performances and indicators of the Aston Martin DB11 AMR incessantly. As a buyer, Chen Zhao was in a daze, but David listened attentively and occasionally interrupted.
“We wanted to get in the car and give it a try.”
"No problem at all."
Chen Zhao sat in the passenger seat, and David sat in the driver's seat to experience it.
Chen Zhao doesn't have much idea about cars. He can drive a car worth ten thousand dollars, and he can also drive a car worth one hundred thousand dollars.
David is different. His pursuit of cars is more like chasing a dream.
After getting out of the car, Chen Zhao asked, "Do you have any red ones here?"
"Do you want to drive the red model? With all due respect, Mr. Chen, you are more suitable for silver gray or blue."
"I gave it to my girlfriend. My girlfriend likes red."
Paris suddenly felt jealous, wondering why she couldn't meet such a high-quality boyfriend.
Thinking about her being a lowly little actor who just eats at home and waits to die, who only fantasizes about becoming a big star all day long, but can still only play small roles, Paris now wants to drag Chen Zhao into the bathroom.
"There is indeed a red model, but that model is the top configuration."
"Oh, how much?"
"For US$250,000, we can help you with loans and insurance. The total cost is about US$259,000."
"The loan is no longer needed."
"What?"
"Full payment," Chen Zhao said.
Paris nodded slightly: "Then please come with me and I will go through the procedures for you."
"Mr. Chen, this is my business card. If you have any needs, you can call me at any time. I am available to serve you 24 hours a day."
Chen Zhao understood the subtext of this sentence and took the business card with a smile: "Thank you."
Chen Zhao has been paying a lot less attention recently. If it had been in the past, he would never have let go of this high-quality beauty in front of him.
After paying the car purchase price in full, Paris only needed to apply for insurance for Chen Zhao, and the whole process was completed in less than 20 minutes.
Chen Zhao and David drove away in the car, and Paris looked at Chen Zhao's back with a resentful look.
David couldn't afford a car, so he had to borrow Chen Zhao's car to get used to it.
"By the way, come with me to buy a car that I can drive myself." Chen Zhao said.
"What? You still want to buy it?"
"I told you, this car is for Fali."
"So what price do you want for the car you drive?"
"For an SUV, as long as it has a lot of space, that's the only requirement. Others are optional."
"Don't you have any other requirements?"
"No." Most SUVs can meet Chen Zhao's request.
Chen Zhao directly bought a Ford SUV for 20,000 US dollars, and then asked David to help deliver the car to his home.
Chen Zhao will now drive an Aston Martin DB11 AMR to give gifts.
