"You win again. Your skills and your plane are great."
Old Larry spoke to Xia Yu on the radio.
"Thanks."
Xia Yu said politely that it was not easy to make this old man bow his head.
"If I were ten years younger, I might go to the Osmium countrymen tomorrow to buy a new plane, but I'm too old to fly a new model."
Old Larry's tone was full of emotion at this moment. The MiG-29 was a good fighter, but the MiG-141 had better overall performance. In addition, Xia Yu's skills were also good, so it was not surprising that both father and son lost to him.
In this situation, if we want to turn the tables, we must purchase new fighter jets with better performance. However, becoming familiar with the operation of the new fighter jets is another problem.
He is now 75 years old. By the time he has mastered the basic procedures and has a certain combat capability, he will be too old to drive.
Then put your hopes on your son?
Come on!
That guy only knows how to hang out in Hollywood. He has some interest in flying fighter jets, but he is definitely not as serious about it as I am.
No matter how he thought about it, Old Larry could only accept the reality and enjoy the rest of his life!
"No, no, no, Mr. Ellison, you are not old at all. You can drive until you are 80 without any problem."
What Xia Yu said was not a compliment. As long as rich people do not have any fatal genetic diseases, their life expectancy and quality of life are higher than those of ordinary people. Just like the old lady in Ying Country who is still on standby, she is over 90 and still drives herself, and it is a Land Rover.
Even if elderly people of the same age in China can open a car, their family members won’t let them do so!
No, when he is over 90, his sons and daughters must steal his driver's license, otherwise he will be able to only wander around on his own island.
"Hahaha, I hope so too. By the way, Xia Yuke, I want to invite you to visit my yacht."
Larry Sr. extended the invitation, but they haven't spoken face to face yet.
"Sure, I'd also like to invite you and David to my yacht. Let's set a location, shall we?"
Xia Yu extended an invitation in return.
Who doesn’t have a super yacht these days? And his is quite special and might scare people.
"That's great. We met here, so let's just meet here!"
Old Larry suggested that his Musashi was now cruising in the Pacific and could arrive at any time.
The name of this yacht sounds very original, and it is indeed so. Larry's last super yacht was called the Rising Sun!
Xia Yu knew that this old guy was more fond of Japanese culture, and his mansion in San Francisco was built according to the Japanese Royal Palace. He had passed by it before when he was in Magnesium, but he didn't know him at that time and couldn't go in for a look.
"Okay, I'll go back first. My ship is parked quite far away, so it will take some time to get here."
"Don't worry, we'll meet again tomorrow."
After the final agreement was reached, the three fighter planes began to return, and soon Xia Yu returned to the Invincible Class.
He jumped out of the cockpit without even setting up the gangway. This height was easy for him.
Without bothering to park the plane in the hangar, Xia Yu first went to the bridge, started all the gas turbines, and advanced at full speed towards the uninhabited island and reef waters.
The ship's speed quickly climbed to 28 knots, which is already the fastest speed of the Invincible class. It can travel 1,200 kilometers a day by traveling day and night, and will probably reach the target sea area tomorrow morning.
After handing over the control of the Invincible Level to the automatic driving program, Xia Yu finally had time to park the plane. On the other side, the Ellison father and son returned to Lanai Island and stayed on the island for one night before taking a helicopter to the Musashi.
The yacht is about 288 feet (87.8 meters) long, much smaller than his previous 452-foot Sunrise, the product of his competition with Microsoft founder Paul. It is much longer than the 414-foot Octopus, but unfortunately it is too long to be parked.
Paul passed away two years ago, and Larry Sr. was very sad, so he sold the Rising Sun to David Geffen and bought this smaller Musashi.
I don’t know which yacht that guy’s is. The most recently launched super yacht seems to be the Flying Fox by Leshun, but isn’t that Bezos’s?
Standing on the upper deck of the Musashi, Old Larry could never have imagined that Xia Yu’s yacht was a converted aircraft carrier.
"Dad, we're almost there."
David Ellison came from the cab.
"It looks like we're here too early, so let's wait!"
Old Larry has enough patience for people he likes, and since yesterday Xia Yu has been one of them.
"Dad, what do you see there? Could that be them?"
David Ellison suddenly pointed to the distance and said, "There's a small black dot there."
"Quick, go get the telescope."
"It's an aircraft carrier, why doesn't it have an escort formation?"
Old Larry felt very strange when he saw the true appearance of the small black dot through the telescope.
"What type, Nimitz or Ford class?"
It is not uncommon to encounter an aircraft carrier in the Pacific Ocean, and David obviously did not take it seriously.
"Neither of them. Do you recognize them?"
Old Larry handed the telescope back to his son since he knew more about military equipment.
"The ski-jump deck and this bridge, isn't this the Invincible-class ship from Ying Country? Weren't they all retired a few years ago? How did they appear here?"
David actually recognized the Invincible level, but because he knew it, he couldn't figure out what was going on.
"A retired aircraft carrier?"
Old Larry grasped the key point. Could this be the yacht that Xia Yu was talking about?
Yes, that guy was flying a Jag-141. He chose this short-range and vertical landing aircraft instead of many fixed-wing jet fighters because he wanted to use it with an aircraft carrier.
