Chapter 655: The Air Show Begins!
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Early the next morning, everyone got up early.
Today was mainly the first day of the air show, with the opening ceremony in the morning, followed by several aerial stunt performances.
Zhou Chao and Si Cong were sitting in the hotel restaurant having breakfast.
“Zhou, I’ll go ahead. See you at the venue later!” Abdullah approached with a few subordinates.
“Why the rush? Finish your breakfast first. We can go together later!” Zhou Chao said, slightly puzzled.
“I won’t have breakfast. I have to attend the opening ceremony later!”
Hearing this, Zhou Chao immediately understood. It seemed that Abdullah was representing Saudi Arabia at the air show.
“Alright, you go first. I’ll find you later!”
Abdullah nodded in agreement, greeted Si Cong and the others, and then left the hotel with his men.
“Let’s hurry up too. Finish breakfast, go back to the room, and then we’ll leave!” Zhou Chao suggested.
Upon hearing Zhou Chao’s words, Si Cong and the others couldn’t help but eat faster.
The location of the Zhuhai Air Show was at the International Airshow Center in Jinwan District, which was a bit far from Dong’ao Island where Zhou Chao and the others were staying.
Even if they took the ferry, it would still take about an hour and a half.
Therefore, Zhou Chao had arranged for three helicopters through Lin Wu, just to make it easier to fly back to Zhuhai from Dong’ao Island.
“Young Master Zhou, are we really going to fly to the air show center by helicopter?” Si Cong asked in surprise.
“Yes, otherwise, we don’t know when the ferry will arrive. I’m afraid that by the time we get there, all the excitement will be over.”
The other companions, including Lao Piao, Shuyi, and others, looked at Zhou Chao with anticipation.
Soon, everyone followed Zhou Chao to the hotel’s helipad, where two orange helicopters were parked.
Next to the helicopters stood a familiar figure, chatting with the pilots.
“Lin Wu, is everything arranged?” Zhou Chao walked over briskly.
Lin Wu, who was chatting happily with the pilot, turned around upon hearing Zhou Chao’s voice and greeted him excitedly.
“Boss, you’re here! Everything is arranged. We can take off anytime. And Abdullah and his team have already left on another helicopter.”
Zhou Chao nodded slightly, not wanting to waste too much time. He then called Si Cong and the others to board the helicopter.
With Lin Wu and Keke, who had tagged along, there were exactly seven people. Considering Lao Piao’s size, Zhou Chao waved his hand and let Shuyi and Keke accompany Lao Piao on another helicopter.
As the rotor blades started spinning, the helicopters slowly rose into the air.
“Wow, this is so cool!” Keke exclaimed loudly, looking out the window.
“This is nothing. If you’ve seen Young Master Zhou’s luxurious private jet, I’m afraid you wouldn’t even be able to move your legs,” Lao Piao said proudly, as if the private jet was his own.
“Is that true, Shuyi?” Keke asked excitedly.
Shuyi, recalling the private jet she had seen when she flew from Lu Island, couldn’t close her mouth in amazement. Especially when she walked up to the plane, the luxurious interior decoration made her realize for the first time what it meant to be rich and extravagant.
“Yes, there probably isn’t a second private jet in China that can compare!”
Although Shuyi didn’t know other second-generation wealthy individuals, she still had a little understanding in this area.
Upon hearing this, Keke’s eyes widened even more, and there was a hint of inexplicable emotion in her eyes.
“Oh right, Shuyi, I heard you bought a suite at The Palms Residence?” As a close friend of Shuyi’s circle, Lao Piao had heard some of this information.
“Yeah, I’ve spent most of my savings over the years!” Shuyi couldn’t help but feel a bit melancholic when talking about it.
“Haha, actually, Young Master Zhou also has a suite at The Palms Residence, and it’s even a penthouse. I’ve been there a few times before. If there’s a chance, I’m sure Young Master Zhou wouldn’t mind having one more person like you.”
Upon hearing this, excitement flashed in Shuyi’s eyes. During her time at Lu Island, she had also learned what kind of person Zhou Chao was. If she could really become friends with Zhou Chao, it would be truly beneficial.
“I hope so!”
Keke, who was listening to their conversation on the side, couldn’t help but feel excited. She was already calculating in her mind how to impress Zhou Chao.
Meanwhile, Zhou Chao and the others on the other helicopter were discussing the purchase of a private helicopter.
“Do you think it’s too extravagant if I buy a helicopter for commuting?” Si Cong looked at the helicopter and said.
“You buying a helicopter? Forget it, it would be completely useless for you to buy one!” Hou Ting poured cold water on Si Cong’s idea.
“Why would it be useless? It would be so much fun to take a few internet celebrity girls out to play!” Si Cong argued.
Hou Ting was speechless at Si Cong’s reasoning. “Alright, alright, that’s because you’re rich and indulgent, Si Cong.”
Then he turned to Zhou Chao and asked, “Young Master Zhou, where did you get this helicopter? It seems much better than the ones I’ve seen before, and they all look brand new. Did you specifically purchase them?”
“Well, you know, besides the helicopter that Abdullah used before, these two helicopters feel like they came out of the same mold.” Si Cong realized belatedly and looked at Zhou Chao curiously..
