In the following time, Lin Han and Chen Jiaxuan had a great time in Europe.
Fortunately, "Charlotte's Web" continues to sell well, and the English version is also very popular. Other books are also making a steady stream of money for Lin Han. One year's global royalties can buy several such private jets!
Lin Han, who had just traveled to this world, would have never imagined that a few years later he would actually plan to buy the most expensive private jet, a model exclusive to the top rich!
Famous writers are so strong, while street writers are still worried about three meals a day and renting a house. The polarization in any industry is equally serious.
However, the price of this type of aircraft is quite high. It is completely customized and the various decorations in the cabin are also decided by the customer. The price is several hundred million.
Chen Jiaxuan knew that Lin Han had been looking at information about these aircraft when he was in the hotel recently. She asked, "Do you really want to buy a private jet?"
Among them, the downtime fee is even more than 10,000 yuan a night, which is three to four million yuan a year!
Most of Lin Han's wealth was not earned by the company, but by the books he wrote, the movies he made, and the copyrights he sold. He is a typical cultural tycoon.
…
There is no airport on Weizhou Island. The nearest airport is on the Beihai side. However, Lin Han asked Yan Hong, his assistant, to rent a jet. This was considered to be Lin Han's first experience of what a private jet is like.
Under the blue sea and sky, the sea breeze is blowing by the Aegean Sea; in the Colosseum, you can feel the excitement of filming "Gladiator". The Arc de Triomphe of Constantine next to it seems a lot worse than the one in Paris.
As the fan said, Lin Han's qualification as a judge really didn't come from charity. He is now an Oscar winner after all, even if he didn't win the Best Director Award.
The number of new members admitted to the Oscars increases every year. This is to balance the composition of the judges in the Academy so that the proportion of female judges and non-white judges increases.
What Lin Han is interested in is the G550 produced by Gulfstream Aerospace Company. This is the model with the longest range and the largest cabin in Gulfstream. The range of this aircraft is comparable to that of large passenger aircraft, but because of its short take-off and landing distance, it can In and out of smaller airports and city center airports.
In addition to emphasizing the diversity of gender and cultural background, keeping the jury team younger is also an important factor they consider. Movie audiences are gradually becoming younger, and most of the audiences entering cinemas are now young people.
The management of private jets in China is becoming more and more relaxed, and the Capital International Airport also provides parking and take-off services for private jets, which is very convenient.
The current number of private jets in China has skyrocketed. From helicopters, propeller planes to business jets, private jets are changing from a luxury toy to a means of transportation for business travel!
They took photos together in front of the famous Swan Castle, and also went to the Arctic Circle to stay there. However, the weather was not kind and this was not the best time to see the aurora.
Compared with those business leaders, Lin Han has very few things to worry about. He doesn’t have any big companies, he only needs to do his own creations!
Gulfstream not only sells aircraft, but also provides aircraft leasing. Now there is a Gulfstream aircraft waiting at the Hong Kong Airport. Lin and Han will not need to leave the airport when the time comes, they can fly directly to Beihai!
Even Chen Jiaxuan couldn't help but murmured next to Lin Han, "Could this be the prototype character of "Up to the Sky"?"
"Welcome aboard this flight and wish you a pleasant journey!"
"After our private plane arrives, we can slowly travel and have an in-depth tour." Lin Han said while sitting on the plane. Their flight was from Berlin to Hong Kong, and then they rented a plane from Hong Kong to Weizhou Island. , Lin Han wanted to see how "Lost" was filmed there.
Until this time, Lin Han felt that the money he made was not enough. Although Forbes magazine said that his net worth exceeded 6 billion yuan, that was obviously an exaggeration.
As a film director, he won the screenwriting award. People from the American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences probably still think that Lin Han is a serious director. After all, there are many people who write and direct themselves!
The Gulfstream G550 is very tall, and Lin Han can stand upright in it. The seats of this aircraft are all adjustable, and there are various interfaces. The three pilots are also neatly dressed, driving in a modern atmosphere. Operating inside the room!
Some netizens are like dog-skin plaster. They have been hating him since he can remember. It feels like Lin Han dug up his ancestral grave.
You only need to apply for the takeoff time and takeoff and landing location with the Air Traffic Control Bureau. You don’t have to worry about noisy children on the plane. You can also carry more belongings and arrange your time freely.
Lin Han looked at the passing scenery outside the window, nodded and said, "Of course it's true. Money in the bank is just a number, and buying a plane doesn't cost much."
Jack Ma and Wang Jianlin also use this kind of plane, but while others use it for official business trips, Lin Han uses it for global travel, which seems to be more chic.
It’s expensive not to fly, but even more expensive to fly.
Lin Han does not think that after Chinese-speaking filmmakers like himself become judges, the Oscars will favor Chinese-speaking films more. This is completely putting the cart before the horse!
The aging crisis in the academy is particularly serious. The age of 62 is just a median. It is conceivable how seriously older white men control the Oscars.
Buying an airplane is expensive, and maintaining one is not cheap either. Each takeoff and landing fee, overnight fee, cleaning fee, fuel fee, parking fee, as well as other pilot and flight attendant salaries, insurance, maintenance, and route approval fees None are cheap.
A week or two seemed to fly by in the blink of an eye. Their trip left footprints in many European countries, but this was just a taste of the trip. Many places were just a quick glance!
The generation gap and contradiction between young people and Oscar judges are quite prominent, and the two sides have very different aesthetics!
For Lin Han, even if he buys an airplane, he must have a complete crew. It is best to cooperate with a powerful company for a long time, who will be responsible for the pilots and the maintenance and upkeep of the aircraft. This is the most worry-free.
If Chinese-language films want to win the Olympics, the essence lies in improving the quality of the film, rather than pinning their hopes on more Chinese-speaking judges.
There is no flight attendant here, only a slightly older pilot starts the announcement. The captain wearing sunglasses looks very handsome.
The disputes on the Internet are like a passing cloud to Lin Han. He doesn't even bother to delete them. Anyway, he doesn't get scolded for a day or two.
