How can I justify myself as a Magnate if I don't indulge myself?

Chapter 129: The Damn Fascinating Privilege



"Mr. Gu, I hope our Ritz-Carlton Hotel's services over the past few days have been to your satisfaction. This is a gift prepared by our hotel for you, please accept it."

"We have recorded your basic information, and from now on, no matter where you are, you will remain our Ritz-Carlton Hotel's most esteemed guest. Simply with a phone call, any hotel under the Marriott International Group will provide you with the highest quality of service!"

Hong Kong International Airport.

Xu Ying was instructing the hotel staff to load the luxury clothing and accessories worth over one million that Gu Heng had purchased onto the helicopter.

Meanwhile, Zheng Jiayi continued to offer that respectful expression as she handed a luxuriously extravagant gift box to Gu Heng.

Aside from Zheng Jiayi, the personal butler, the hotel had also dispatched several members of its management team to see him off...

There was no helping it...

This was the difference in treatment between high-quality customers and regular customers at top hotels...

Although Gu Heng had only stayed on Hong Kong Island for a few days, his spending at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel had broken the million-dollar mark...

Perhaps compared to the overall turnover of the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, it wasn't much...

But this was personal spending...

It would take the combined spending of several dozens of regular suite customers to match Gu Heng's expenditure, such an extravagant spending power, not just the Ritz-Carlton Hotel but any hotel around the world wouldn't pass up such a high-quality customer.

After listening to Zheng Jiayi, Gu Heng smiled and took the gift box.

"Inside the gift box are some souvenirs from our hotel and your ambassador membership card for the Marriott Group; Ambassador membership is the highest level of our Marriott Group's membership program, offering unrivaled privileges and courtesy!"

To be honest...

Gu Heng wasn't particularly interested in the so-called hotel souvenirs.

Perhaps these souvenirs could fetch a nice sum on the secondary market, even becoming capital for showing off, similar to the umbrellas in Rolls-Royce cars that cost several thousand dollars each...

But such capital for flaunting was easily accessible to the current Gu Heng, completely unworthy of his attention.

That said or not said, his experience at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel these past few days had indeed been quite pleasant.

He had also spent several hundred thousands at the Hyatt Hotels Corporation, and the service he enjoyed there wasn't the same level; this emperor-like service, he guessed, would be remembered for a lifetime...

"I hope to avail of your services again in the future."

After handing the gift box to Xu Ying, Gu Heng nodded and smiled at Zheng Jiayi.

"I too am looking forward to the next opportunity to serve you."

After speaking, Zheng Jiayi placed her hands in front of her abdomen and slightly bowed: "Goodbye, Mr. Gu, I wish you a smooth journey."

Several members of the Ritz-Carlton Hotel's management also bowed and repeated it.

The brief stay on Hong Kong Island, though lasting only a few days, was unequivocally, the most profound experience of the economic disparity between the wealthy and the ordinary that Gu Heng had ever felt...

Whether it was the hotel services or the yacht parties, it was a level of treatment beyond even Gu Heng's wildest dreams...

That's why they say Hong Kong Island is a capital-rich soil, a paradise for the wealthy...

If there was an experience bar, the month or so Gu Heng spent in the Mainland likely only increased it by one-tenth, but these few days on Hong Kong Island, the bar had probably skyrocketed by half!

.....

As Gu Heng approached the plane, a woman dressed in Ritz-Carlton Hotel attendant uniform softly spoke.

"Mr. Gu, welcome aboard our Ritz-Carlton Hotel's exclusive helicopter. I am your flight attendant for this trip.

I will be serving you throughout this flight, please board the aircraft. We have already obtained approval from the aviation authority, and our departure time slots today are between 10 AM and 2 PM."

As Gu Heng listened to the flight attendant, he nodded, directly climbing into the helicopter.

Looking at the setup inside the helicopter, his heart felt a bit better...

Not overly luxurious, but it could still be considered quite nice, comparable to the interiors of luxury cars, the space was about the same...

But overall, Gu Heng was still not completely satisfied with the helicopter flight...

The cost of over forty thousand Hong Kong dollars was not a big deal...

The main reason was that he really didn't expect that he would still need to come to the airport to take a helicopter...

Using Zheng Jiayi's words, flying from Hong Kong Island to Ao Island can start and land at private helipads as it is essentially domestic travel...

But flying from Hong Kong Island to Yangcheng City counts as entering the territory...

Customs not only had to thoroughly inspect the luggage but also the aircraft, to prevent any illicit materials from entering the country illegally...

After going through the whole procedure, it really wasn't much different from taking a plane...

If there was a difference, it was that it was more expensive and more laborious...

Forgoing a few thousand dollar first-class ticket to pay thirty thousand for this cramped little helicopter...

But Gu Heng didn't complain, directly walking into the cabin and taking a seat...

He chose it himself, so there was nothing to complain about, one could say it was the price paid for ignorance...

"Mr. Gu, the estimated flight time from Hong Kong Island to Yangcheng City Baiyun International Airport is about 40 to 70 minutes. Today's weather conditions should allow for a perfect flight, and we expect to arrive within 45 minutes.

We have already coordinated with Baiyun International Airport, and they have reserved an exclusive VIP channel for you, ensuring priority handling whenever you arrive.

Shall we take off now?"

After Xu Ying carefully fastened Gu Heng's seatbelt, he heard the flight attendant's words, spoke lazily: "Just take off now, I'll take a nap, and you can wake me when we arrive at Yangcheng."
