Chapter 1915 Super Cruise

Ming Disha looked at Lu Chengwen: "Are you threatening me?"

Then he said, "Forget it, I won't play with giant cruise ships anymore. I'll be satisfied with my dog ​​legs. For the rest of my life, I'll be satisfied with my nephew's dog legs. Okay?"

Ming Disha shed tears in grievance: "Is my request too much? It's just a cruise ship. I've never been on a cruise ship in my life, so what if I want one? Fine, you're worried about the money, but I don't want it. It saves you from going around saying I'm frivolous, greedy, and... I'm after your money again..."

"Lu Chengwen, tell me honestly, among all these old people, is your uncle the best to you? I want a cruise ship now, but you won't buy me one, and I haven't even asked for the sun and moon in the sky yet!"

Lu Chengwen was so angry!

He could only coax her: "Uncle Master, buy it! I'll contact them right now! I'll buy it for you no matter what! But you really have to help me get Shiyin's Tianshan Crystal. How about this, we split up, I'll get the cruise ship, and you get the Tianshan Crystal? "

Ming Disha looked at Lu Chengwen: "Really? You didn't lie to me?"

Lu Chengwen laughed miserably, "Silly boy, why would I lie to you? A liar, how can you be called a human being? Living by lying is no different from an animal. You deserve to be smashed on the head by a tiger's club, and your brains splattered like a cruise ship."

Lu Chengwen sat weakly on the sofa, tore off his tie and threw it to the ground.

Ming Disha came over to coax him, "Cheng Wen, don't get too excited. I've calculated that the cruise ship actually costs over 13 billion. If you increase it tenfold, he'll definitely sell it!"

Lu Chengwen looked at him and really wanted to cut him into pieces until he bled.

Ming Disha smiled and said, "Master Uncle really isn't after that cruise ship. He just wants to have something to do in his later years, something to enjoy, and someone to rely on. As long as we can get the cruise ship this time, Master Uncle will definitely help you get that Tianshan Crystal. It's only a few billion. Is it worth more than Luo Shiyin?"

Lu Chengwen nodded: "Uncle Master, I'll wait for your news."

……

Lu Chengwen called Leng Qingqiu.

Leng Qingqiu asked Lu Chengwen to wait for thirty seconds, and after thirty seconds, Leng Qingqiu began to recite.

"The Dynasty Rise. 365 meters long and 66 meters wide, with nineteen decks, seven swimming pools, including a waterslide, and thirty-nine restaurants and bars. It can accommodate ten thousand tourists and over two thousand crew members simultaneously. It also has an ice skating rink, an entertainment city, a shopping mall, a spa, a high-altitude basketball court, open-air and indoor cinemas, a rock climbing wall, and a children's playground..."

Lu Chengwen said, "Alright, alright. Can you give me an estimate of the transaction price?"

Leng Qingqiu asked, "Cheng Wen, why are you suddenly interested in this cruise ship? I don't recognize its owner and want to sell it. This cruise ship is owned by a foreigner and is one of the world's top-tier giant cruise ships. Its annual turnover is estimated to be over 10 billion..."

"Wait a minute, how much!? Ten billion!? A year!?"

"Yes."

Leng Qingqiu said, "We estimate that his ticket sales are at a 50% attendance rate, which means that on average, my nephew will see 5,000 people every day, and each person will spend an average of 5,000 Chinese Yuan. This means a daily turnover of 25 million yuan; a monthly turnover of 700 to 800 million yuan; and a yearly turnover of over 9 to 10 billion yuan."

Lu Chengwen didn't say anything.

Leng Qingqiu continued, "This is a very conservative figure. Because... we haven't calculated their casino revenue, and the ticket sales rate is calculated based on a low sales rate of 50%; and the average spending per person is calculated based on the minimum spending included in the ticket."

Lu Chengwen asked, "How can cruise ships make so much money?!"

Leng Qingqiu said, "The expenses are also huge. We have over 2,000 employees, and even the waiters have to earn hundreds of thousands a year. Otherwise, no one would want to spend more than 300 days a year drifting on the sea. Labor, costs, losses, repairs and maintenance... it probably costs at least 500 to 600 million a year."

"But I looked it up, and this cruise ship is really popular. There are events on all the celebration days, and many celebrities, both domestic and foreign, go on board to perform. For 40,000 yuan, you can go on board for seven days, for 30,000 yuan, you can go for five days, and for 20,000 yuan, you can go for three days... and there's a private car to pick you up at the airport."

"Almost all activities are free. However, you can bring your own swimsuits and skates, or you can buy them on board or choose to have them provided free of charge with your ticket."

"The restaurant also offers both a free buffet and a la carte dining. In other words, the rich have their own way of playing, but ordinary people can also have fun as long as they have a ticket."

Lu Chengwen thought for a moment and asked, "How many years has this ship been in operation?"

"Less than two years."

"His construction cost plus the cost of production hasn't even been recovered yet. Is there any information on that person's current financial situation?"

"This needs to be checked."

"ASAP."

Lu Chengwen began to calculate, "His shipbuilding cost is over 13 billion, plus the other initial investments, operations, labor, and losses... I estimate it's 20 billion at best. Over two years, he'll only make a few billion each year. I'm assuming it's 5 billion, so he'll need four years of operation to recoup his costs."

Lu Chengwen was in trouble.

"According to the current situation, he'll have already recouped his investment in two years, and for the rest of the time he'll steadily make billions every year. Without 30 billion, he can't possibly sell it. If he wasn't short of money, this amount wouldn't be attractive to him at all..."

Leng Qingqiu said, "That's what it seems like at the moment. Oh, the owner of this ship is a foreigner named Robert. He owns more than one cruise ship. He also runs two hotels and a casino in the United States. Cheng Wen, he won't sell it. Not even for 50 billion."

Lu Chengwen also fell silent.

Their family background is much richer than mine.

In the eyes of others, I am just a small rich man.

Moreover, there is no reason for people to transfer such a profitable business.

He could make a net profit of tens of billions by operating this ship for ten years, and then consider selling it to get back part of the principal... huge profit!

That’s not even counting his casino income!

It's like if someone came up with 500 billion to acquire all of Dasheng Group's slum town projects. Lu Chengwen would just spit in his face and not have a second thought.

Leng Qingqiu said: "Cheng Wen, can you tell me the reason?"

"Shiyin has contracted a strange disease and needs a foreign object to survive. This object is in the hands of the Tianwu people. No one in this world, except Ming Disha, has the ability to steal it from the Tiantianwu Patriarch. The only thing that Master Uncle asks for... is this cruise ship."

Lu Chengwen gritted his teeth and said, "He has set his sights on me. For Luo Shiyin, he would risk everything!"

Leng Qingqiu was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "What if it was for me? Would you?"

Lu Chengwen was stunned for a moment, then quickly said, "Of course, your value in my heart is ten times more valuable than this broken cruise ship!"

Leng Qingqiu didn't say anything.

Lu Chengwen quickly said, "Qingqiu, I don't mean anything else. I'm not measuring your value with money. What I mean is that for you, I would rather die. This is not about money, this is..."

"Cheng Wen."

Leng Qingqiu's voice was very calm and serious: "The official website has just updated the information. The owner of the cruise ship has changed."

"Who?!"

"Huo Wenting."
