Chapter 99 Ordering Lafayette
Ye Fan silently thought to himself: Sure enough, rules are only for ordinary people. Real rich people don't need to follow any rules.
Ye Fan said calmly:
"Understanding, it's all for the sake of work."
Xu Cheng bowed slightly:
"Thank you for your understanding. Please show me your asset verification report."
Ye Fan waved his hand and said:
"No need for that trouble."
He then took out his phone and opened his mobile banking app in front of them.
Click on the "Total Assets" section.
Once the verification is successful, the balance will be displayed.
He handed the phone to Xu Cheng.
Xu Cheng took the phone and looked at it.
Xu Cheng felt a surge of heat rush to his head, and his hand holding the temple of his glasses trembled uncontrollably, almost causing his phone to slip from his stiff fingers!
Having worked in the industry for over a decade and handled countless transactions involving wealthy individuals, he had never personally witnessed such a massive personal cash balance! This was beyond his understanding of what "wealth" truly meant!
Xie Wanning looked over curiously.
Holy crap!
It made even a very well-mannered woman swear.
How many digits is that!
One, ten, one hundred... Husband, father, grandfather, ancestor!
More than four billion?
The impact of this number was a hundred times more shocking than any financial news she had ever seen!
The way she looked at Ye Fan completely changed, filled with disbelief, shock, and an indescribable awe.
The young, handsome, and plainly dressed man in front of you has a background that is... unfathomable!
It completely shut down both of them.
Ye Fan, who was standing to the side, took in all their expressions.
"Can we talk about how I can buy that LaFerrari?"
Xu Cheng suddenly jolted awake, as if from a dream!
His face instantly filled with an unprecedented, almost fawning, respectful smile, his body unconsciously adopting a bowing posture, and his voice trembling slightly with excitement and nervousness:
"Of course!"
Xu Cheng nodded repeatedly, his tone extremely respectful.
Four billion!
He had never seen so much money before, not even during the Qingming Festival.
And this is all cash flow.
There are very few companies in the entire country that can come up with such a large amount of cash flow!
I can't even imagine how powerful his family must be!
He simply cannot afford to offend them!
Compared to Ye Fan, all the other rich kids he'd met before...
Xie Wanning, who was standing to the side, stared wide-eyed.
Who exactly is this handsome young man who looks so young and is dressed so plainly?
"I'll handle it for you right away, please wait a moment."
After Xu Cheng finished speaking, he was about to leave, but after taking only two steps, he suddenly stopped.
Holding the phone, which seemed to weigh an ounce, with utmost care, as if it were a priceless treasure, her hands trembled slightly as she handed it back to Ye Fan, her face filled with deep apology and fear.
"Mr. Ye, I'm so sorry! Your...your cell phone!"
The moment he handed over his phone, he felt his back was soaked with cold sweat.
This Mr. Ye is definitely the most important client he has ever encountered in his career!
none of them!
After a while.
Xu Cheng jogged over, his face displaying professional humility, and bowed, saying:
"Mr. Ye, the process for ordering a LaFerrari is as follows: first, you need to place an order with us and pay a deposit. Then, we send the carefully selected configuration to Ferrari headquarters. Only after headquarters confirms the configuration will we begin customized production. From the final confirmation of the configuration to the completion of the vehicle and its delivery to the customer across the ocean, there is usually a waiting period of at least six months."
"During this long waiting period, occasionally some customers hesitate for various reasons and ultimately choose to abandon the order and not pay the final payment."
Xu Cheng continued to add:
"According to the contract, the deposit paid in this situation is non-refundable. The headquarters will still continue to complete the vehicle production according to the established process. Faced with this situation, the original customers who placed the order usually have two options: one is to find another buyer to take over the order, which is called order transfer; the other is to simply give up the vehicle and give up both the deposit and the car."
Xu Cheng's face lit up with a perfectly timed smile:
"It's quite a coincidence that our store is currently handling such a transfer order. The original client has entrusted us with the entire process, including finding a new buyer."
After listening to Xu Cheng's explanation, Ye Fan nodded in understanding.
Ordering a car is a time-consuming and complicated process.
Moreover, the LaFerrari is a limited-production, top-tier hypercar that symbolizes status and taste; each one is unique, and waiting is the norm.
Xu Cheng observed that Ye Fan's expression was calm and showed no displeasure, which reassured him somewhat, but he still quickly added:
"However, Mr. Ye, it should be noted that this order is already on the production line at the Italian factory, and all the optional details have been locked in and cannot be changed. But please rest assured that the original customer's taste in the optional configurations is very classic and sophisticated, perfectly in line with the traditional essence of Ferrari, and are all highly sought-after and valuable configurations."
He was worried that Ye Fan wouldn't be satisfied with the options others had chosen, since buyers of top-tier supercars often pursue ultimate personalization and exclusivity.
This is especially true for cars like the LaFerrari.
Ye Fan's gaze swept over the tablet screen that Xu Cheng handed him, which displayed a rendering of the vehicle.
His expression was calm, and without much hesitation, he said directly:
"It's fine, classics are timeless. Let's go with this one!"
His tone carried an undeniable decisiveness.
Upon hearing this, Xie Wanning immediately stepped forward, skillfully opened the order details page on the tablet, and clearly turned the screen towards Ye Fan:
"Mr. Ye, the final price of this LaFerrari, including options, is 4655 million RMB. Here is a detailed configuration list and price breakdown for your review."
If various taxes and tariffs are included, the total price is expected to exceed 60 million.
That's more than half a small goal!
If Old Zhao found out about this, he'd probably be cursing for ages.
Xu Cheng quietly reminded him from the side at the right moment:
"Mr. Ye, since this is a transfer order, you need to pay a transfer fee of 300 million yuan plus a deposit of 200 million yuan, for a total of 500 million yuan."
Ye Fan glanced at the vehicle rendering briefly before taking out his bank card:
"Swipe your card!"
The movements were swift and decisive, without the slightest hesitation.
Xu Cheng respectfully accepted the card and swiped it using the POS machine that had been prepared beforehand.
He then handed it to Ye Fan and smiled:
Please enter your password!
Ye Fan was about to type when he glanced at Xie Wanning beside him.
As an experienced salesperson and store manager, Xu Cheng immediately understood and smiled:
"Mr. Ye, please rest assured that Wan Ning will be in charge of this order from start to finish, and all subsequent commissions and performance bonuses will be credited to her."
Upon hearing this, Ye Fan's lips curled into a barely perceptible smile of satisfaction. Without saying another word, he quickly entered the password on the POS machine.
"Sizzle~"
The next second, the POS machine dispensed a payment receipt.
A deposit of five million was thus made, and this was just the beginning. When the red Prancing Horse actually drove into the garage, more than half a billion in real money would have been spent.
This is Ye Fan's largest personal expense since his rebirth; all previous large expenditures were company-related.
Xu Cheng handed the receipt and voucher back to Ye Fan with both hands, his attitude becoming even more respectful:
"Mr. Ye, please have a seat and a cup of coffee. I will go and prepare the formal car purchase contract and related documents for you right away."
After saying that, he bowed slightly and quickly left the luxuriously decorated VIP room.
The room fell silent, leaving only Ye Fan and Xie Wanning.
