Chapter 102 Arrival in Hong Kong
After some effort, Mao Xiaoyu finally stood under the large aircraft, looking at the Boeing 777 that would soon fly from Shanghai to Hong Kong. The cloud pattern on its exterior coating was a deep blue color, and it was very beautiful overall.
The aircraft is nearly 7,000 meters long and has a wingspan of over 60 meters. Its sleek shape makes it look beautiful, and its colorful paintwork shines with a dreamlike luster under the sunlight.
Mao Xiaoyu had flown on many airplanes in her past life and had even seen many real airplanes. As for airplanes, she felt that they were nothing special in her past life.
But now that Mao Xiaoyu is rich, and judging from the current situation, she will only become richer in the future. Therefore, Mao Xiaoyu's mindset has changed fundamentally. In her previous life, she couldn't afford a large airplane, so she had no interest in airplanes at all.
Seeing this Boeing 777 up close now, Mao Xiaoyu's first thought was, "No wonder they say airplanes are men's toys." She thought, "When I'm rich and financially independent, I might actually buy a private jet. After all, this plane is really beautiful. It's definitely worth owning."
This is the difference between the mindset of the poor and the mindset of the rich. In her previous life, Mao Xiaoyu knew that she would never be able to afford an airplane, so she had no interest in airplanes. But in this life, she feels that she can afford an airplane, so she has developed a deep love for it.
Since the plane had already opened its doors, passengers began boarding one by one. Mao Xiaoyu looked at the plane's exterior for a while, then joined the queue to board.
-
Just like on TV, there were flight attendants to guide passengers during boarding. However, these flight attendants weren't as pretty as those on TV, but their service was still quite good.
Although she had flown many times before her rebirth, this was the first time Mao Xiaoyu had experienced flight attendant service, which surprised her. When she was looking for her seat, she felt a sense of familiarity and strangeness, just like taking a high-speed train. When she finally sat down and looked at the people around her, it felt even more like taking a high-speed train, which gave Mao Xiaoyu an indescribable feeling of unease.
However, this time Mao Xiaoyu's seat was near the window, and she was very satisfied with it.
Mao Xiaoyu had always wanted to see what the ground looked like from the air, to see if it was the same as what she saw on TV. Although she had been on airplanes many times in her previous life, she had never been on one near a window.
This time I finally got a seat near the window. If the flight attendant allows it, I'm determined to see if what's outside is really like what I see on TV.
The passengers gradually took their seats, and when no more passengers boarded, the flight attendants began to count the number of passengers.
After the inventory was completed and the personnel were confirmed to be in order, the flight attendants then checked whether all the items in the overhead bins were properly placed and whether they were loose or blocking the bin openings.
After checking all the baggage compartments, the flight attendant closed the door and made sure it was locked. The flight attendant would then check the indicator light on the door; if the light was green, it meant the door was closed and locked.
After all this was done, the flight attendant reported to the captain that the cabin door was closed and the plane could take off safely. Then, through the plane's intercom, the flight attendant began to instruct all passengers to fasten their seat belts, indicating that the plane was about to take off.
Upon hearing the flight attendant's announcement, Mao Xiaoyu saw other passengers starting to fasten their seatbelts, so she followed suit. Soon, Mao Xiaoyu had fastened her seatbelt. Then, when she heard the flight attendant say that the plane was about to take off, Mao Xiaoyu couldn't help but think of her parents, her sister, and herself going abroad for the first time in her life.
I wonder if my parents will be watching my plane leave from the waiting room, and I wonder if Mao Tingting will know which plane she is on.
Sigh, Mao Xiaoyu is finally leaving her motherland, and she is a little reluctant to part with it.
Although I had traveled abroad in my past life, visiting Southeast Asia, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan, this is my first time going abroad in this life, and I can't even describe how I feel right now.
The plane didn't stop operating because of Mao Xiaoyu's mood. After a while, it was finally time for takeoff, and the plane started moving. Although Mao Xiaoyu was sitting on the plane, she could feel that the plane was moving.
At that moment, Mao Xiaoyu's heart began to pound. This strange feeling made Mao Xiaoyu feel inexplicably weird.
I've flown on many planes in my past life. Although I know that the probability of a plane crash is lower than that of a car crash, the problem is that every time a plane crashes, no one can save their life, and there's nowhere to run.
At this moment, Mao Xiaoyu's mind started to wander, wondering if the plane would crash.
-
Even knowing she had flown many times in her past life, and knowing that she was just daydreaming, Mao Xiaoyu still couldn't control her thoughts.
Now Mao Xiaoyu can only slowly restrain herself from these wild thoughts and think about whether she should try to distract herself.
The best way to shift your attention is to look at other things and focus your mind on other things.
But there didn't seem to be much to see in front of me.
Oh no, wait, where's the flight attendant?!
What happened to all the flight attendants?
I was hoping to see some flight attendants to distract myself, but there weren't any left.
As Mao Xiaoyu's mind wandered, wondering where the flight attendant was, she felt the plane accelerating. As the plane sped up, Mao Xiaoyu's heart suddenly pounded.
The plane roared and began its second takeoff. Mao Xiaoyu no longer had the high spirits she had when she boarded the plane; instead, she looked as if she were facing a formidable enemy.
Thankfully, after the plane climbed twice and passed through the clouds, it finally stabilized. At this time, the beautiful flight attendant's voice came over the loudspeaker to announce that the next two hours would be a stable flight, and everyone could move around a bit, but if they were sitting in their seats, it was best to fasten their seatbelts.
Hearing this, the passengers were relieved. Some of them immediately unbuckled their seatbelts and rushed to the restroom. As for Mao Xiaoyu, she wondered where the flight attendant was.
"Flight attendant, could you please get me a glass of water?"
Finally, the flight attendant appeared, and Mao Xiaoyu immediately raised her hand and shouted.
"Okay, sir, please wait a moment, I'll be there in a bit."
The flight attendant didn't come to Mao Xiaoyu's side to pour her water as soon as she asked for it. Instead, she pushed the cart slowly from the front to the back, and of course, she still greeted Mao Xiaoyu.
Hearing the flight attendant's words, Mao Xiaoyu had no choice but to sit in her seat and wait for the flight attendant to arrive. While waiting, Mao Xiaoyu also saw several other flight attendants walk by, but these flight attendants had other things to do and were not there to serve tea. Moreover, each of the flight attendants looked to be in her twenties, neither too young nor too old.
She's definitely much prettier than the average person, but to say she's exceptionally beautiful or stunning isn't quite accurate. However, she's a strong contender for a 7 out of 10, and any ordinary person would be lucky to marry one of her.
"Sir, would you like something to drink?"
About seven or eight minutes later, the flight attendant pushing the cart walked up to Mao Xiaoyu and asked with a smile.
"I'd like some juice," Mao Xiaoyu said, picking through her choices.
"Okay." Upon hearing Mao Xiaoyu's choice, the flight attendant quickly poured her some juice.
"Excuse me, beautiful flight attendant, I'm traveling to Hong Kong alone this time. I'd like to ask where are some fun places to visit in Hong Kong?" Mao Xiaoyu asked while waiting for her juice.
"There are many fun places in Hong Kong, but if you ask me, I'm not too sure. It's best to ask the locals, since they definitely know where the fun places are." The flight attendant poured the juice and handed it to Mao Xiaoyu as she spoke.
"Thank you." Mao Xiaoyu took the juice and drank it all in one gulp.
"Excuse me, I was a little thirsty just now, so could you pour me another glass?" Mao Xiaoyu said, handing the empty glass to the other person.
"It's okay." The flight attendant took Mao Xiaoyu's cup and poured it again.
"Beautiful flight attendant, are you about my age? You look like you're in your teens." Mao Xiaoyu said flirtatiously, looking at the busy flight attendant.
"Excuse me, I'm already over teens." The flight attendant said politely as she handed Mao Xiaoyu another glass of juice.
"Hmm, you don't look like it at all. I thought you were 18 like me." Mao Xiaoyu took the juice and flattered him again.
"Thank you for your compliment, sir. Is there anything else you require?" the flight attendant asked politely.
"That's all, thank you." Mao Xiaoyu wanted to say a few more words to the person, but since they couldn't stay there indefinitely, she reluctantly asked them to leave.
This flight was quite long, lasting 2-3 hours. During that time, Mao Xiaoyu visited several different flight attendants, but didn't see a single woman who particularly caught her eye.
"Dear passengers, ————, we are about to arrive at Hong Kong International Airport, ————, for your safety, ————, please fasten your seat belts, ————, this is Chief Flight Attendant Liu Ru."
As the plane approached Hong Kong International Airport, the in-flight announcements began, broadcast in English, Mandarin, and Cantonese.
Upon hearing the flight attendant's report, some passengers who were not wearing seatbelts began to fasten them, and some who were not in their seats returned to their seats. As for the flight attendants, they all returned to their respective rest seats.
The plane then began to descend, and feeling the weightlessness of riding an elevator, Mao Xiaoyu's heart started pounding again.
Fortunately, I was much more used to it this time than during takeoff. Plus, I've flown quite a few planes in my past life, so although landing was still a bit strange, the whole process was much better than takeoff.
Thank you for flying with us. Have a pleasant journey.
The flight attendant stood at the airplane door and greeted each passenger warmly.
Mao Xiaoyu dragged her suitcase up to the flight attendant, then suddenly stopped and asked, "Excuse me, flight attendant, I'd like to rent a cheap hotel, but I also want one with a nice environment. Where should I go?"
The two flight attendants probably didn't expect anyone to ask this question and were momentarily stumped by Mao Xiaoyu's question. Fortunately, the older flight attendant quickly replied, "I'm sorry, sir, we're not quite sure about this either, but you can go down and ask the ground staff. I'm sure they'll know more than we do."
"Okay, I don't agree with your answer, but thank you for your reply." Mao Xiaoyu shrugged and said helplessly.
"Thank you for flying with us. Have a pleasant journey." The two flight attendants gave their formal thanks once again.
Mao Xiaoyu had no choice but to leave.
In her past life, Mao Xiaoyu had actually visited Hong Kong a few times and was familiar with the places to visit there, but when it came to hotels, she wasn't necessarily familiar with them.
After all, every time I come here, it's with a tour group, and there are specially arranged accommodations. I just need to follow the group, buy some things, and look around.
This time, coming out alone was very inconvenient.
However, this didn't stump Mao Xiaoyu, as she still remembered the names of those hotels from her previous life.
First, she took the Airport Express to leave Hong Kong International Airport. When she arrived in the city center, Mao Xiaoyu asked a taxi driver for directions several times before finally finding a hotel.
Metropark Hotel Mong Kok, Kowloon.
In her past life, this hotel had a good reputation. Since she had chosen the hotel, Mao Xiaoyu took a taxi directly there.
Upon arriving at the hotel, Mao Xiaoyu realized that the hotel would likely be renovated in a few years, as it looked different from the one he had lived in in his previous life.
Mao Xiaoyu didn't care about this. Since she was already there, she went to the front desk to inquire about the room rate and booked a week's stay.
It costs quite a lot, 300 a day, 2100 a week, in Hong Kong dollars.
The waiter led Mao Xiaoyu to the room he had booked and opened the room specifically for her. The room wasn't very big, about 10 square meters, with a single double bed, a shower, and a toilet.
Mao Xiaoyu put her things in the room and planned to go out to get something to eat. If she had enough time, she planned to go to HSBC to see if she could open a securities account.
There's no other way. After arriving in Hong Kong, time is money. I need to get things done as soon as possible to avoid wasting time.
Furthermore, Mao Xiaoyu plans to find a lawyer tomorrow and take him to the company registration office to see how to register an offshore company.
This time, Mao Xiaoyu came not only to speculate on Hong Kong stocks, but more importantly, she wanted to register an offshore company, whether it was in the British Virgin Islands or an offshore company that came with Hong Kong itself.
