Return to 2000: Captain of the Great Powers

Chapter 210 Earn Money! The big joke of the C-series aircraft! (Please subscribe!)
The test flight of the Boeing 777 was boring throughout. Both Xu Cang and Boeing got everything they wanted, which is a good ending.That night, all Boeing personnel stayed overnight in Daocheng, and their own maintenance staff needed a period of time to conduct a more detailed inspection of the Boeing 777 after the test flight.

If there is no problem with the plane, tomorrow the plane will fly directly from Daocheng to Jinmen, and then go back to China from Jinmen.

The FAA assessors will naturally follow Boeing, while the EASA personnel and the CAAC observers flew back to Hanjing on a temporary flight shortly after the test flight.

Xu Cang's plan was to take a flight back to Jianchuan at [-] o'clock in the evening. Seeing that the departure time was quite late, he reckoned that he could invite Li Rongcheng to have dinner.As a result, I couldn't get through the phone, and no one answered when I knocked on the door of the hotel room.

Xu Cang thought that Li Rongcheng was going to be busy with some aftermath work after the flight test. Anyway, eating was not a big deal, so he sent a text message to Li Rongcheng and said that he would return to Jianchuan after nine o'clock, so he didn't care about him anymore.

Of course, Xu Cang really never saw Li Rongcheng again, nor did he reply to any text messages. Xu Cang only thought that he was very busy, so he didn't think much about it.Of course, I went back to Jianchuan by plane and stayed at the Jianchuan Airport Hotel.

It is very close from Daocheng to Jianchuan, within an hour's flight, and it is only after ten o'clock in the evening after landing. If you are determined, you may be able to catch up with the earliest breakfast at the Spring and Summer Aviation Base tomorrow morning.

However, Xu Cang still has some reasons for staying in Jianchuan.Because there are four ARJ21s that have been painted with spring and summer airline clover paint on a far apron at the northwest corner of Jianchuan Airport.

National Airline originally planned to send [-] planes over in two batches, but the result was temporarily changed, and it may have to be divided into several times. The first batch was four.According to Xu Cang's skeptical nature, he once thought that the National University was doing something wrong, and finally Yi Feng called him specially, emphasizing that it was indeed just some unexpected situation in the transfer, and it would only slightly extend the delivery time , the rest will not change, which made Xu Cang feel at ease.

If there is no accident, starting tomorrow, there will be three round-trip flights between Erhai Lake and Jianchuan every day in the morning, afternoon and evening.In this way, Spring Airlines does not need to apply for temporary flights every time or take the painful land route.

In addition, Tuofeng Airport also agreed to open commercial flights, but the number of flights is less, with two flights a day in the morning and evening with Jianchuan.However, there is a daily round-trip flight between Tuofeng and Erhai Lake.

These flights seem to be quite a lot, but in fact, two or so ARJ21s flying together can completely cover them all.However, there were only four planes in the first batch, so we can't let the other two planes bask in the sun all day long, right?

It costs a lot of money to sunbathe this plane.

Moreover, there are still more than a dozen planes behind!If it came all at once, the impact would not be very good if more than a dozen planes were piled up and idled as soon as they arrived.From this point of view, it would be a good thing for Xu Cang to delay some deliveries due to some unexpected circumstances.

However, this is an expedient measure after all. How to allocate these aircraft and use them is the most important thing.

Of course, Xu Cang had a plan long ago, and prepared with both hands. One is to independently build the Jinghong base, which will be the center of the second air network.The second is to invite the person in charge of various airports in the province to meet. Xu Cang believes that there must be some of them who are willing to open civil aviation commercial flights, and some of them have even started to take action on their own. He also needs to establish a good relationship in advance.

If it doesn't work, then develop outside.As long as the entire voyage time is guaranteed to be within one and a half hours, it can basically be handed over to ARJ21.However, in order to ensure the occupancy rate, it is not possible to contact the small airport.Because in underdeveloped areas outside the province, even if they have the need to go out, they are more inclined to choose Rongfu or Shancheng, and the internal driving force to go to Jianchuan is not strong.

For example, the surrounding Rongfu, Shancheng, and Qianxi are all good choices.However, Rongcheng is the best route among these three routes. Unless it is true that the idle rate of ARJ21 is too high, otherwise, Xu Cang will not use ARJ21, and it is better to use 737-800.

Although Xu Cang pursues a cheap strategy, it doesn't mean that the air ticket prices are all a few hundred less.For example, can the prices of flights from Jianchuan to Hanjing and Jianchuan to Erhai be the same?

Xu Cang's cheap price is only lower than the average price of the route. For example, the price of the Jianchuan-Hanjing flight is more than 800, which is still a cheap type.

However, the Jianchuan-Rongfu route has a high occupancy rate, and there is still room for an increase in the fare. It is a pity to use ARJ21 to carry passengers.

ARJ21 is suitable for flights within one and a half hours, with high occupancy, but little room for price increase. It earns hard money by relying on small profits but quick turnover and some policy subsidies.

Those high-quality routes with high profit margins are better handed over to 737.

Tomorrow the intra-provincial route will start sailing, this time Xu Cang must be just a passenger, and he has no idea of ​​participating in it at all.

In addition, tomorrow he has to get up early to go to Jianchuan Air Traffic Management Bureau to meet an acquaintance. This person will be very important to him in the future.

Moreover, not only will he return to Erhai Lake tomorrow, the surveyors from the National Aviation Planning and Design Institute from Hanjing will also take that flight to Erhai Lake first, and then go to Jinghong by land.

There is no other way, Jinghong has no commercial flights now, so it can only be entered by land, and the nearest airport is Erhai Lake.But even so, it takes more than five hours to travel from Erhai Lake to Jinghong, which is quite troublesome.

Xu Cang invited the people from the National Aviation Planning and Design Institute this time. The purpose of course is to solve the problem of lack of flight procedures for Jinghong Airport.

At first, Xu Cang thought it would take half a year to turn around, but he didn't expect that he still had a small amount of money in hand now.If all the money was spent, it would definitely be enough to renovate the entire Jinghong Airport, but it was useless.Xu Cang still needs to use the money in other places, and it is impossible to spend all the money in Jinghong Airport in one go.

Moreover, it will take some time from the completion of the survey and mapping of the terrain near the airport to the design of the corresponding flight procedures, and then to the approval of the bureau.

During this period of time, Xu Cang happened to have a small opportunity to make a fortune, just to verify whether his own way of industrial investment with both hands is good.

In addition, Xu Cang also has a hard drive in his hand, which was handed over to him by the person in charge after the Boeing 777 test was completed.Inside is the electronic drawing data of Boeing 737NG.

This hard drive is priceless, and Xu Cang can't wait to sleep with it in his arms.

In the future, he will indeed give this hard drive to AVIC, but according to the previous promise with Chen Jinwu, he will use it to get something from AVIC.

The current Xu Cang's ideas are very different from those of the past. For example, if you only have ideals and awareness, you will not go far.

In the early morning of the next day, Xu Cang was woken up by the alarm clock, looked at the time, panicked, a carp jumped up from the bed, and hurried to wash and tidy up.

He set three alarm clocks in total, but he fell asleep too much and ignored the first two. Fortunately, the third alarm clock was still useful, but the rest of the time was already quite tense.

Xu Cang simply cleaned up, drank some water and rushed out of the airport hotel.

The Airport Hotel is located in the working area of ​​the airport, just two streets away from Jianchuan Air Traffic Management Bureau, and it takes less than 5 minutes to run there.According to the previously agreed place, Xu Cang saw Director Liu from the tower control room of Jianchuan Airport at the bus stop opposite the main entrance of Jianchuan Air Traffic Management Bureau.

That's right, Xu Cang was looking for Director Liu on this trip.

Director Liu obviously had a better sense of time than Xu Cang, and arrived at the agreed place early, and even started to have breakfast leisurely, holding a newspaper from nowhere in his hand.

Seeing Xu Cang approaching, Director Liu took out another cup of soy milk from the plastic bag beside him: "Look at you in a hurry, don't you miss breakfast?"

"Haha, I almost overslept." Xu Cang was blunt, took Director Liu's soy milk directly, and sat down beside Director Liu's seat.

"You young people just refuse to sleep at night and refuse to get up in the morning, tsk tsk tsk, that's because you are young." Director Liu folded the newspaper: "Say it, you even asked me out to talk, what are you doing, you kid. "

Xu Cang directly removed the straw, opened the lid, and poured half a cup of soy milk in at once, making Director Liu dumbfounded.

Xu Cang drank heavily, and when he was done, he wanted to make a comment: "I put less sugar, and the beany smell is a bit strong, no good."

Director Liu sneered: "If you really want it to be so sweet, it's better to give you a cup of sugar water. Don't pick and choose, why do you want me?"

"Director, don't be so angry, we have a little friendship."

Director Liu flicked his fingernails: "That's right, just a little bit of friendship, so please be more self-respectful when you speak, and don't ask for anything beyond our friendship."

"I am very self-aware. Director, I heard that you have been transferred to the city's air traffic management bureau as the second in command?"

Director Liu was very dissatisfied: "The number one leader and the second leader serve the people, so how can there be a number of leaders. When did you make so many twists and turns, you have to talk quickly, and let go of farts!"

"It's like this. We will have more flights at Erhai Airport in the future. There may not be enough controllers at this airport, so this is hehehe."

Director Liu glared: "Hey, hey, hey, you and I can't get a controller to come out for a day."

Xu Cang was thick-skinned: "You have been working in the front line of Jianchuan Airport control for more than ten years, so you can have fewer contacts. Besides, if you go further now, wouldn't it be easy to give us some controllers in Erhaiyun?"

"It's handy, isn't it? It's a good idea!" Director Liu put the folded newspaper under his arm, and swaggered towards the opposite side.When I was about to reach the opposite side of the road along the zebra crossing, a sentence floated from there: "Mature controllers don't even think about it, there are more than a dozen practice air traffic controllers coming from Jianchuan Airport, and I can adjust four or five. The intern will give it to you, do you want it?"

Xu Cang was taken aback for a moment, it was all up to this point, how could there be any room to pick and choose?Immediately shouted: "Director, you have to choose carefully for me. Director, I trust your vision!"

The only response to Xu Cang was Director Liu's furious growl: "I'm not your father, so I have to pick someone for you? Who are you to pick? I'll pick five for you as soon as I close my eyes. It's a cat or a tiger. It's yours." own business."

"That's right." Xu Cang was still thinking about getting a cheap price and being good-looking, and was going to bargain again when the time came, but his cell phone rang, and he took it out to see that it was Xiao Lingyun's number.

With a thought in mind, Xu Cang answered the phone, and Xiao Lingyun's piercing and urgent voice came from inside: "Where are you now?"

"I told you, it's opposite the main entrance of the Air Traffic Management Bureau." Xu Cang thought for a while, and added: "The bus stop opposite the main entrance."

"I see you!"

After finishing this sentence, Xiao Lingyun hung up the phone directly.

Xu Cang put down his phone, felt something and began to look around, and sure enough, a person came out from the right side of the road not far away, it was Xiao Lingyun.

At this moment, Xiao Lingyun was wearing a gray jacket, and his pace was hurried, just like his aggressive tone just now, just like his heart that could no longer calm down.

Originally, Xiao Lingyun planned to relocate Yixin Insurance in Shekou for a while, but not long ago, Xu Cang arranged another financial operation plan for him that seemed quite unreasonable.

However, it may be the first task assigned to Xiao Lingyun, Xu Cang did not invest too much this time, only took out more than 3000 million.Although it was a rebirth, some things changed after he was reborn, so he couldn't put all his eggs in one basket every time, this first time was right to test the waters.

Just yesterday, Bombardier released its first mainline airliner, a C-series CS737 that directly competes with Boeing 320 and Airbus 100 in terms of passenger capacity, and this event is exactly what Xu Cang will use .He just wanted to see what impact this first C-series aircraft would have on Bombardier.

Perhaps as the world thinks, Bombardier joined the struggle between Boeing and Airbus and became the catfish that muddied the muddy water.But Xu Cang is different, he comes from the future, he knows everything, he can get the possibility he wants from this incident.

This is an experiment, if it is successful, Xu Cang will receive continuous financial support, and Xiao Lingyun's news will determine Xu Cang's future direction.

Xu Cang went up to meet him, but before he could speak, Xiao Lingyun, whose eyes were bloodshot, grabbed Xu Cang's shoulder: "How do you know?"

Xu Cang was startled for a moment, and then ejaculated in his eyes: "Any news?"

Xiao Lingyun took a deep breath: "It's unbelievable, it's unbelievable! The order for the world's fourth largest aircraft manufacturer's first trunk liner is actually zero! No matter which media, no matter which venture capital, no matter which A stock forecasting agency, who would have thought that Bombardier, who thought it was going to disrupt the situation, would be a big joke. Hahaha! The stock price of Bombardier has plummeted, Xu Cang, we made a fortune!"

　The family members are also sick, could it be true Yang?But I don't feel anything, it will be fine all at once.
