Chapter 418 Jiang Chen swept his pen and bought an airline for fun!
"President Jiang! You're not kidding, are you? That...that's a mess worth billions!"
On the other end of the phone, Director Liu's voice sounded somewhat shrill due to extreme shock.
"And...and the contract is to be signed this afternoon? You...you didn't even bring a financial due diligence team to check it out?!"
Jiang Chen leaned back in the soft leather seat of the Maybach, looking out the window at the motionless white line of cars, and uttered a few words softly.
No investigation is needed.
"I'll pay in full."
After saying that, Jiang Chen hung up the phone, as if it were just a simple reservation for afternoon tea.
……
Two o'clock in the afternoon.
In the conference room of the court's bankruptcy liquidation center on the outskirts of Nam Giang Province, the atmosphere was as oppressive as a tomb.
A man in his fifties, with graying hair, who was once full of vigor, was now slumped in a chair like a lump of mud.
He was Qian Deguang, the founder of Flying Eagle Airlines.
His eyes were red and swollen, and he kept wiping away tears with the hands that had once signed countless big contracts.
Outside the conference room, in the corridor, hundreds of people stood in a dense crowd.
There are pilots, ground staff, flight attendants... They are all long-time employees of Flying Eagle Airlines, and they haven't received a penny of salary for almost half a year.
The mortgage, car loan, and children's tuition fees at home are like mountains, making it hard for them to breathe.
"It's over...it's all over..."
Qian Deguang stared at the cold bankruptcy liquidation notice issued by the court on the table, muttering to himself.
In order to revitalize the company, he mortgaged his house, borrowed from all his relatives and friends, and even resorted to shady private loan sharks.
But now, it's all gone.
What awaits him is endless debt and imprisonment.
Just then.
"Bang!"
The heavy door to the conference room was pushed open from the outside.
Jiang Chen led Attorney Zhou and several security guards in black, striding in.
He ignored the bewildered court staff in the meeting room, and didn't even look at Qian Deguang, who was completely stunned.
Attorney Zhou followed closely behind, slamming a thick stack of pre-printed documents onto the center of the conference table with a crisp "thud".
On it, in bold black font, were written several large characters: "The Agreement for the Whole Acquisition of Flying Eagle Cargo Airlines".
Jiang Chen pulled out a chair, sat down, and scanned the room with his gaze. His voice was not loud, but it carried an undeniable decisiveness.
"Fifty billion."
"cash."
Everyone present, including the court liquidators who were used to big scenes, gasped in shock.
Jiang Chen held up two fingers and continued.
This money consists of two parts.
"First, we will make up for all the back wages, social security contributions, and compensation owed to all employees of Flying Eagle Airlines, from top to bottom, without missing a single penny."
"Second, upgrade all outdated communication and navigation equipment within the company."
Jiang Chen's gaze finally fell on Qian Deguang, who had stopped crying and was staring blankly.
"I have only one request."
"Tonight, before dark, those five Boeing freighters sitting in the hangar must be fully fueled, complete all pre-flight checks, and be ready to go at any time."
Five billion!
This astronomical figure struck Qian Deguang like a thunderbolt.
He stared intently at Jiang Chen, his lips trembling, thinking he was hallucinating due to excessive pressure.
Attorney Zhou pushed the agreement in front of him, adjusted his glasses, and spoke in his characteristic, rigorous, and professional tone.
"Mr. Qian, please sign."
"Once you sign, five billion will be transferred to the court-designated escrow account within ten minutes."
Qian Deguang's body began to tremble violently.
He wasn't hallucinating!
This is real!
This young man really needs to come up with 5 billion to buy out this mess!
This is hardly an acquisition.
This is simply a living bodhisattva descending to earth to save all sentient beings!
Qian Deguang suddenly stood up from his chair, walked around the conference table, and, to everyone's astonishment, knelt down in front of Jiang Chen with a thud.
"Boss Jiang... Boss Jiang!"
His voice was choked with sobs, filled with the ecstasy and gratitude of surviving a catastrophe.
"You...you are our second parents!"
Jiang Chen frowned slightly, and the security personnel next to him immediately stepped forward and helped him up steadily.
"I'm not your parents, I'm just a businessman."
Jiang Chen's tone remained calm.
"I give you money, you do my job, it's that simple."
Qian Deguang nodded repeatedly, so excited that he was incoherent.
"We'll do it! We'll definitely do it!"
He snatched the pen, his hand trembling as if he had Parkinson's, and heavily signed his name at the end of the agreement.
"Don't worry, Mr. Jiang! All the captains at Flying Eagle Airlines are retired Air Force aces!"
"Don't even mention tonight, as long as the money's in place, I'll have them take their planes for a spin right now!"
He had barely finished speaking.
Attorney Zhou received a text message notification on his phone from the bank.
He glanced at it and nodded to Jiang Chen.
"President Jiang, the five billion has been received."
Arrives instantly!
In the conference room, the court staff members' eyes practically popped out of their sockets.
They have handled countless bankruptcy cases and met all sorts of business owners.
Some cried and wailed, some transferred assets, and some fled overnight.
They had never seen anyone like Jiang Chen, who could acquire a company on the verge of bankruptcy as casually as buying a cabbage at the market, throwing out 5 billion yuan without batting an eye!
Meanwhile.
In Jiang Chen's mind, the system's notification sounds rang out frantically.
[Ding! Detected that the host is making a massive strategic investment, successfully revitalizing a struggling company and saving thousands of families!]
The system has determined that this behavior aligns with the core value of "When you achieve success, you should help others."
[Triggering a 500x cash bonus for you!!!]
[Rebate settlement in progress...]
[Congratulations, host! You have received an injection of 25000 trillion Chinese Yuan equivalent from overseas trust funds!]
Jiang Chen's face remained completely expressionless.
He simply stood up and straightened his collar.
"The plane issue has been resolved."
"Next, the venue."
Jiangjia Village is more than 100 kilometers away from the nearest provincial capital's civil aviation airport.
Even if the plane can fly, the road from the airport to Jiangjia Village will still be tightly controlled by that damned checkpoint.
"Uncle Zhou, I'm leaving this place to you."
Jiang Chen left a sentence behind, turned around and walked out of the conference room, leaving behind a room full of people who had not yet recovered from their shock.
Back to Jiangjia Village.
Jiang Chen drove directly to the foot of the rolling, overgrown, barren mountains behind the village.
This place is full of strange rocks and has a complex terrain, so no one has set foot here since ancient times.
Wang Dagou followed behind, looking puzzled.
"Brother Chen, why did you bring me to this godforsaken place?"
Jiang Chen did not answer.
He simply looked up at the useless, barren mountain before him and, in his mind, issued a command to the system.
"system."
"I want to build a large 4F-class cargo airport here, large enough to accommodate Boeing 737s."
"Provide a solution immediately."
[Ding! Host's infrastructure-building fanaticism is detected burning fiercely! Request confirmed!]
[Matching the best solution for you...]
[Plan generated: Deduct one billion yuan from system funds, activate one top-tier item [Global Terrain Modification Card], and simultaneously summon a [Robot Engineering Team]!]
[Effect: It can forcibly flatten all the mountains in front of it overnight and pave a 3800-meter-long international 4F standard runway, taxiway, and helipad!]
Night slowly fell.
The entire back mountain area of Jiangjia Village was cordoned off with a tight red and white cordon stretching for several kilometers.
Jiang Shitou led over a hundred security personnel, all armed and on duty, with guards every three steps and sentries every five steps.
"Listen up, all of you!"
Jiang Shitou gave a death order to all team members.
"From this moment forward, this area is a military restricted zone!"
"Don't even mention a person, not even a rabbit or a fly can be let in!"
The night grew deeper and deeper.
After all the villagers had fallen asleep.
Deep in the desolate mountains, pairs of scarlet electronic eyes silently lit up in the darkness.
Hundreds and thousands of tireless, incredibly powerful T-800 robots, like demons crawling out of hell, began their insane infrastructure construction that was enough to overturn the laws of nature.
Hard mountains, one after another, are easily flattened in their hands, like tofu.
Truckloads of scalding hot special aviation asphalt were precisely laid on the ground.
Rows of high-brightness, all-weather blind landing navigation lights were quickly installed.
