Concorde was once the only supersonic airliner in the world that was actually put into commercial operation.
for many young people, they may not know about this plane at all, but they have to admit that it has written a great deal in the history of civil aviation.
throughout the past few decades, the law of the development of human science and technology will find an interesting phenomenon, that is, in recent years, people have been relatively conservative in the development of science and technology.
during the Cold War from the 1960s to the 1980s, it was a golden era in which human science and technology thrived and developed crazily.
people of that era showed unprecedented fanaticism and radicalism in the field of science and technology.
in an era when computers were not as powerful as bully learning machines, the Soviet Union sent astronauts into space and the United States sent astronauts to the moon.
also at that time, people lost interest in ordinary subsonic civil aircraft and began to step into the supersonic era with their heads held high.
Concorde, which can reach twice the speed of sound, was officially put into use in 1975, when people already enjoyed supersonic airliners of 2150 kilometers per hour.
now, it takes nearly two hours to fly from Yanjing to Jinling, but it only takes 25 minutes if you take Concorde. Unfortunately, although the plane is extremely fast, its fuel economy is extremely poor, so with the arrival of the economic crisis and a serious flight accident, the plane retired from the civil aviation stage in 2003 and disappeared in front of the world ever since.
Today, most people don't even remember the existence of this plane, but a few of it are well preserved.
and, without exception, all have become the exclusive cars of the super-rich.
Ye Chen's grandfather, Ye Zhongquan, has one.
his Concorde airliner was bought back and spent a lot of money on renovation and maintenance. Up to now, it still spends tens of millions of dollars on basic maintenance every year.
but Ye Zhongquan spends so much money on this plane, but it's hard for him to fly once all year round.
however, to the top families, this kind of aircraft is equivalent to the nuclear weapons of a great power. It can be sealed all the time, not used for years or even decades, but can be put into use as soon as a major event is needed.
that's why Chen Zekai came up with this idea. As long as Ye Zhongquan is willing to lend this Concorde airliner to Ye Chen, he will send Ye Chen to Syria within four and a half hours.
it's just that Ye Zhongquan attaches great importance to the plane and has hardly given it to anyone but himself, and even his sons and daughters have no chance to use it.
Chen Zekai, however, is a spokesman for the Ye family in Jinling. He can't even get in touch with Ye Zhongquan directly, so it's up to Ye Chen to talk to Ye Zhongquan himself.
Ye Chen was instantly awakened by his words.
he blurted out excitedly, "Great!" If there were Concorde airliners, it would save more than half of the time at once! "
as he said, he immediately took out his cell phone and said, "I'll give him a call. I'll borrow this plane anyway!"
Chen Zekai said with some worry, "Master, it is said that your grandfather is very precious to this plane. So far, he has not borrowed it or let anyone but him use it. I am worried that he will not lend it to you now."
Ye Chen said in a sinking voice, "anyway, let's try to make a phone call first."
with that, he called his grandfather Ye Zhongquan.
(adsbygoogle = indo.adsbygoogle | | []) .ush ({});
the phone rings twice and is immediately connected.
Ye Zhongquan asked happily, "Chen er, why did you remember to call Grandpa today"
Ye Chen went straight to the point and said, "I have something to ask you for help."
Ye Zhongquan said without hesitation: "Oh, what else do you have to be polite with Grandpa just say what Grandpa can do, and don't be vague!"
Ye Chen said conveniently, "I have something urgent. I want to go to Lebanon immediately. I heard that you have a Concorde. I'd like to borrow it."
"borrow Concorde" Ye Zhongquan suddenly hesitated and said with a smile a moment later, "Chen er, in fact, if you want to borrow a private plane, Grandpa has a very luxurious Boeing business jet, and the internal renovation alone has spent hundreds of millions of dollars. It is not enough to say that it is an aerial palace. Why don't I lend you that plane"
Ye Chen said firmly: "No, I only borrow Concord."
Ye Zhongquan sighed and said, "Oh, that plane is really too old. It was made in 1985. To be honest, it is much older than you. As you know, the older the plane is, the more unsafe it is."
Ye Chen didn't expect Ye Zhongquan to play tai chi with himself here, so he couldn't help it. He blurted out, "you don't want to lend me the Concorde, but at least you have to lend me a plane that will allow me to fly from Jinling to Lebanon in four and a half hours."
"this" Ye Zhongquan said awkwardly, "the requirement of four and a half hours is too high. Can you be a little more lenient"
Ye Chen asked him, "if you can borrow it or not, just give me a quick word. If I can't, then I won't force others to do anything. "
speaking of this, Ye Chen said in a cold voice, "however, I may have to reconsider the grand ceremony of ancestor worship." I think since it's so troublesome to borrow a plane, I won't bother the Ye family any more. "
Ye Zhongquan, hearing this, gritted his teeth without hesitation and said, "Oh, Chen'er, don't be impulsive!" Aren't you just borrowing a plane Grandpa lent it to you! I'll get the crew ready now and fly directly to Jinling! I have two shifts and two shifts are always on standby at the airport and can take off at any time! Are you satisfied now "
Ye Chen's voice softened and said, "since that's the case, I won't go back on my promise about the grand ceremony of ancestor worship."
Ye Zhongquan breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Chen, you often go home when you have time. Your uncle and I, as well as your uncle and aunt, miss you very much!"
Ye Chen accepted casually and said, "well, after the ancestor worship ceremony, I will often come to see you."
Ye Zhongquan said hurriedly, "that's good, that's good!"
after saying this, he asked again, "Chen son, what are you doing in Lebanon" Do you need grandpa's help "
Ye Chen thought of the problem he had just talked about with Chen Zekai and asked, "I wonder if you can help me clear up the relationship so that I can leave Lebanon and go to Syria smoothly."
"are you going to Syria" Ye Zhongquan was surprised and asked, "there is a war going on over there. What are you doing there"
Ye Chen said calmly, "I have some personal business to go over."
Ye Zhongquan thought about it and said, "I do have some connections in Lebanon!"
"I'll tell you what, I'll clear it up for you and promise to get it done for you before you arrive in Lebanon."
"make sure that when you get to Lebanon, you can go straight to Syria."w him take off all his clothes, shook his head helplessly and said, "OK, soak for a while. If the water is cold, it will be hot. I'll go to bed and read."Su Shoudao smiled hurriedly and said, "all rig...
