As soon as the chubby hotel chairman approached Sheng Quan and was about to go a little closer, he found that a tall man next to her almost immediately turned his body slightly and half-protected Mr. Sheng behind him in a protective posture.

From this position, no matter what he wants to do, the opponent can block it and subdue him quickly.

In fact, Jiang Lu's movements were only very subtle, but being able to be the chairman of such a large hotel must be something. He noticed this and was surprised at the reaction speed of Mr. Sheng's bodyguard. He quickly stopped and stayed at a safe distance:

"I'm Lao Xin. We met at the last cocktail party."

When you give a gift to someone, you intend to ask for something in return.

These eight words were demonstrated vividly by Mr. Xin.

He first mentioned that one of his subsidiaries had rented the Star Building, and then he mentioned that he had cooperated with Mr. Wang Zhengzheng several times. He also expressed some high-end logic that "Mr. Wang and I are very familiar with each other, and Mr. Wang is very familiar with you, so we should be very familiar with each other too."

Seeing that Mr. Xin had already said, "With our relationship, why should you spend money when you come to our hotel for dinner? It must be free of charge," Sheng Quan had to interrupt him with a smile: "Mr. Xin, just tell me what it is. With your attitude, as long as it is not particularly difficult, I will do my best to help."

Director Xin's chubby face immediately broke into a smile: "Then I'll be frank. I heard that Director Sheng bought more than a dozen private helicopters for filming. They are all J500 series."

Sheng Quan was not surprised. Although she had not spread the news of buying thirteen helicopters, since Mr. Xin was very familiar with Mr. Wang, he should have many acquaintances in the circle.

The helicopter was placed openly in front of the crew, the hangar was almost completed, and there was no deliberate secrecy, so it was normal for Director Xin to know about it.

She nodded: "Yes, I bought thirteen. You asked this, do you want to buy one too?"

After hearing Sheng Quan's affirmative answer, Director Xin's smile suddenly became more attentive: "That costs 70 million per set. I am just a small player, how can I afford it?"

He's really not being modest.

As we all know, for businessmen, assets are assets and cash is cash, and their money is basically tied up in various places, and it is not something that they can take out all at once.

For a person with a net worth of 10 billion, it would be good enough if he could take out 100 million in cash.

For example, Mr. Xin might be able to scrape together enough money to buy one, but the amount of money is simply too huge, so he definitely won't buy it.

Look at Sheng Quan, who spent 900 million to buy 13 helicopters just to make a movie... The most terrifying thing is that she is only in her early twenties this year.

A young rich man spending 900 million yuan is completely different from an older rich man spending 900 million yuan.

Could it be possible that Mr. Xin didn't behave modestly and cautiously in front of her?

What's more, he really needs help.

"A wedding?"

Sheng Quan was not surprised at all, and even said to 006: [Here it comes.]

That's why she was quite happy when she saw that she had drawn thirteen helicopters, even though she knew that they were not very useful.

These expensive private helicopters need to apply for routes to do anything as China's low-altitude airspace has not yet been fully opened, which seems a bit useless.

But, precisely because of this, it has derived a unique advantage: currently in China, Sheng Quan is the only one who owns ten luxury private helicopters of this price.

There are certainly people in China who own this kind of luxury private helicopter, but they only buy one or two at most. No one would buy them in bulk like Sheng Quan.

But there are always times when people with assets in place will need to use them, and that's where connections come in.

For example, Mr. Xin at this moment.

If Sheng Quan had spent the 900 million himself, it would certainly not be worth it just for these few connections.

But this helicopter was won in a lottery! It was like she didn't spend a penny, but she had so many tools to show off, and she could occasionally use them to make connections, which was really cool.

Director Xin was very humble: "Yes, her mother and I only have one daughter, and we want to make her different, so I want to trouble Director Sheng."

Nowadays, it is not uncommon for grooms to pick up their brides by helicopter. However, when he inquired, he found that the helicopters available for rent in China are all ordinary models, with the cheapest ones costing hundreds of thousands of yuan each, and the most expensive ones only cost a few million yuan at most.

If it was Mr. Xin’s own wedding, he would think it was fine, but when it came to his daughter’s, he felt that it was not enough.

"Don't worry, the rent is easy to negotiate. Of course, I know you don't need the money, but your intention must be there, so this bill must be waived."

Mr. Xin was still very nervous. Generally speaking,

Private helicopters, which are used for personal use, are not available for loan.

So when the news about Sheng Quan riding a newly bought helicopter to get off work came out, he didn't think about borrowing it from others.

But didn’t Sheng Quan buy another thirteen planes for the crew to use for filming?

Although they were not as cool as Sheng Quan's own, he thought that since Mr. Sheng was willing to use them for filming, he should be willing to lend them out, right?

He was worried, but Sheng Quan agreed immediately: "Why rent? Your daughter's wedding is such a big event. I just want to borrow the helicopter. Just consider it as my gift money."

She agreed!

Director Xin was extremely surprised. He never expected Sheng Quan to be so straightforward. This was a helicopter worth 900 million yuan, yet she could take it so lightly.

Although Sheng Quan did not ask for rent, it meant that he owed her a favor, but Mr. Xin was willing to owe her this favor. After all, in the whole of China, Sheng Quan was the only one who had so many luxury helicopters.

After finalizing the specific borrowing time, Sheng Quan said goodbye.

Watching her being escorted away by a group of people, Director Xin was also moved. No wonder she was so successful at such a young age. She was really open and honest in her work.

When he returned to the hotel humming a song in a good mood, one of the receptionists who was from the same village as him and could barely be considered his niece asked curiously:

"Uncle, who is that?"

Director Xin: "Shouldn't you young people all know her? Sheng Quan, the chairman of Xingmang Entertainment."

They may not know Xingmang Entertainment, but as soon as they hear the name Shengquan, all young people who like to surf the Internet will know it.

"She is Sheng Quan?! Oh my! I even saw a video of her spending 100 million!" The niece was quite regretful: "When they came out, I took a look, but Sheng Quan was surrounded by people, and I didn't see her face at all. What a pity."

After all, he just spent 900 million to buy a private helicopter.

Mr. Xin did not arrange bodyguards for himself, only two assistants and a driver. After all, the overall environment in China is quite safe, and he feels safe when traveling.

But think about the long-legged bodyguards who followed Sheng Quan just now, each of them had a great figure, a stern aura, and were intimidating even without saying a word...

Although Mr. Xin is already in his early fifties, he has to admit that this scene looks really cool.

By the way, I heard that she has a bodyguard company under her. Although most of the business only serves the artists under Star Entertainment, it is said that they can also be sent out.

Not to mention that he owed Sheng Quan a favor, just to say that Sheng Quan is a person who is really worth making friends with.

Director Xin made up his mind and immediately told his assistant:

"Find the contact information of the bodyguard company opened by Mr. Sheng and ask them to recommend me one... no, two bodyguards."

"Also, didn't you say yesterday that you wanted to find a celebrity to shoot the commercial? Tell them to only look for celebrities under Xingmang Entertainment. Also, all hotels should reserve a luxury suite for Director Sheng, exclusively for her to stay in."

Although Sheng Quan is unlikely to stay in a hotel owned by him, what if?

How does the saying go? People may not live there, but they cannot fail to prepare.

*** Director Xin was just the beginning. After the news that Sheng Quan bought thirteen private helicopters for filming gradually spread, she could clearly feel that more and more people were approaching her.

Huaxing Building and Xingmang Manor are at least real estate and properties, and investing in students to do scientific research projects can be said to be spending money to buy fame.

But spending 900 million to buy more than a dozen luxury helicopters when the domestic low-altitude airspace has not yet been opened is pure willfulness due to wealth.

But these people were not the only ones who thought Sheng Quan was rich. "War of the Worlds" officially went to the military area for filming.

The filming of "War of the Worlds" has been going on for just over half a year. During this period, they can be said to have "spent money like water", spending it while feeling the pain.

Fortunately, the filming progress was still smooth, and now I arrived at the army as scheduled.

Of course, these dozen helicopters had to obtain permission to fly near the military zone. When the report was submitted, the military leaders were shocked when they saw the content of the report.

"Thirteen J500 series helicopters? Did they buy all of them themselves?"

"Yes, all their own."

The leader couldn't help but do some calculations in his head. Thirteen planes, the price of each one is more than 70 million...

"Hiss! This is too rich."

Another leader nearby continued, "You just realized how rich she is. Look at how much supplies she donated to our troops. Haven't you seen the people in the logistics department smile when they hear Sheng Quan's name?"

In terms of favorability, Sheng Quan's favorability among everyone in the army is absolutely outrageous.

They are rich, but they are also very generous to them. Especially when it comes to setting up a company to accept veterans, it really touches the hearts of the military leaders.

Not only were the leaders satisfied, but the soldiers who participated in the filming also found it novel and a good experience.

Yes, according to regulations, as long as it does not affect training and combat readiness and does not involve confidentiality and normal training, troops can participate in filming.

When it comes to filming a movie, everyone is very curious. Although it is shot in the normal rehearsal manner, the more detailed scenes are still shot by the crew's own actors.

But everyone couldn't avoid seeing the props of the crew.

There are transport mechanical dogs as tall as humans, unknown cannons with extremely cool appearance, "3D maps" with very VR effects when unfolded, and so on. Even if some of them can only be seen from the outside, they look cool.

Xu He is one of the soldiers who participated in the filming. He felt that the ten days of filming were very interesting. The squad leader said that when the movie is released, it will be shown to them, and he can't wait.

During the filming process, his favorite thing was to watch the black helicopters flying in the sky. These helicopters are not only large in size, but also very handsome in appearance. The awe-inspiring effect of flying in the sky is simply off the charts.

Although there are always scenes of helicopters roaring out in military scenes in movies, in fact his unit was not equipped with helicopters. However, some veterans had seen scenes of helicopters taking off.

"Usually, helicopters only appear in disaster relief and rescue operations. Our team doesn't have a flying brigade, so of course we don't have helicopters." The veteran is quite experienced.

We talked about the new things that happened during the day's filming and whether the movie would be good, and that was it.

After Xu He heard that the crew had finished filming, they went to a nearby location to continue filming. The novelty of "discussing the crew filming a movie here" in the army gradually wore off, and life became as regular as before.

About two months passed in such peace. At dawn, the emergency assembly alarm suddenly rang. Xu He quickly opened his eyes, dressed and got out of bed.

The flood, landslides and road collapse in Lucheng trapped many people. They were urgently mobilized and needed to rush to the scene to fight the flood and provide disaster relief.

Xu He had never participated in such an emergency disaster relief operation since joining the army. He was nervous, but he got on the car without any slowness and set off in the shaky car.

While in the car, perhaps because he was so impressed by the dozen helicopters of the crew over the past two months, his first reaction was that if there were so many helicopters in this disaster relief operation, everyone should be able to be rescued as quickly as possible.

He quietly asked the veteran, "Will a helicopter be sent for rescue this time?"

"Of course, but generally a detachment will not have more than five helicopters. It may take time to deploy them. I hope we can get more as soon as possible. In this case, the more helicopters the better."

The troops arrived at Lucheng at the fastest speed. Everyone got off to change cars. The soldier next to Xu He suddenly asked curiously: "What's that sound? A helicopter?"

The familiar roar of a helicopter was getting closer and closer, and Xu He looked up.

He opened his eyes wide in surprise: "Is that the helicopter from the Star Wars crew?"

The people around him also looked up: "It seems so. Let me count... Yes, it is them. There are exactly thirteen of them."

They were neither too far nor too close from each other and were flying at a low altitude. At first glance, they looked like they covered the entire sky.

Thirteen huge black helicopters were lined up, rotating their rotors, and flying towards the disaster area with a clear goal.
