Return to 2000: Captain of the Great Powers

After saying goodbye to Yi Feng at Guoda Airlines, Xu Cang started another serious business.He told Yi Feng that he came to Hanjing to see a person, and that person was the doctor Xu Ruxing.

Xu Cang's mother has been recuperating surprisingly well recently, and the attending doctor feels that the operation can be performed earlier.However, the specific operation time still needs to be decided by Xu Ruxing.Regarding the situation of Xu Cang's mother, it was difficult to describe it accurately on the phone, and the attending doctor did not dare to ask Xu Ruxing to come to Weiyang just to check on Xu Cang's mother's condition, which made him in a dilemma.

After learning about this, Xu Cang decided to take a trip in person and bring his mother's recent medical files to find Xu Ruxing and let Xu Ruxing make up his mind.

According to Liu Jinxin, Xu Ruxing created a lot of medical patents when he was young and made a lot of money.However, when Xu Cang followed the address to find Xu Ruxing's home, he couldn't tell that it was the residence of a rich man.

Xu Ruxing lived in an extremely ordinary old community, and there was not even an elevator installed in it.However, fortunately Xu Ruxing lived on the second floor, otherwise it would have taken a lot of effort.

Searching for the house number, Xu Cang found Xu Ruxing's house, where couplets were pasted like ordinary people, but the red paper had faded a bit, presumably it was pasted during the Spring Festival last year.

After knocking on the door twice, someone in the room answered immediately, and soon the door opened, and Xu Cang, who was wearing home clothes, came into Xu Cang's eyes.

Before that, Xu Cang had already talked with Xu Ruxing on the phone, so Xu Ruxing was not at all frightened by Xu Cang's arrival, and welcomed Xu Cang into the house with a smile.

"No slippers, sit wherever you want."

After Xu Cang came in, he found that the decorations in Xu Ruxing's house were relatively ordinary, and there seemed to be nothing of value.Thinking in his heart, either Liu Jinxin is talking nonsense, or this genius doctor has reached the point where money is like dung.

Thinking in his heart, Xu Cang came to the living room, found a sofa and sat down.Not long after sitting down, Xu Ruxing came over with a tea set.

"I heard from you that if Lingtang's recuperation effect is really good, it is indeed possible to operate earlier." Xu Ruxing made a cup of tea for Xu Cang: "Give me a look at the file."

Xu Cang immediately took out the file bag in the bag and handed it to Xu Ruxing, and said, "Doctor Xu, if we do surgery, are we sure?"

Xu Ruxing took the file, put on his glasses, and said casually, "I don't like talking too much."

"That means you have a lot of confidence?"

Xu Ruxing was stunned and smiled: "Well, for me, it's not too difficult. As long as the follow-up immunosuppressant really works as Liu Jinxin said, Lingtang's situation is quite optimistic."

Now, Xu Cang really breathed a sigh of relief.Xu Ruxing has already mentioned this, and it is already too obvious.

Xu Ruxing began to look through Xu Cang's mother's medical files. Xu Cang was worried about disturbing Xu Ruxing, and he didn't even dare to breathe, let alone drink tea.

After about 5 minutes like this, Xu Ruxing still maintained the posture of looking at the file, but said in a seemingly unintentional way: "Xu Cang, you said before that you are engaged in business, how are you doing now?"

Xu Cang really didn't expect Xu Ruxing to mention this at all, but he quickly replied: "It's okay, now I have found some new ways to basically solve the problem."

"Oh, is it? That's good." Xu Ruxing closed the medical file and handed it back to Xu Cang: "Yes, the recovery is really good, and the operation can be carried out in advance. In three days, I will go to Weiyang the day after tomorrow and do another one." Final check before surgery."

"Three days later." Xu Cang did not expect so much earlier.However, since Xu Ruxing said that there is no problem, the sooner the better: "Okay, then three days later."

Xu Cang put away the medical files and got up: "Then Doctor Xu, I won't bother you anymore. I'll see you in Weiyang the day after tomorrow."

Xu Ruxing smiled and said, "Well, see you the day after tomorrow."

Having said all that, Xu Cang couldn't bother Xu Ruxing any more, so he put on his bag and walked outside.Walking to the entrance, Doctor Xu Ruxing's voice suddenly came from behind: "Xu Cang, can I ask you a question?"

Xu Cang had already reached the door, and when he heard Xu Ruxing's words, he stopped immediately, turned around and looked at Xu Ruxing who was still sitting on the sofa, holding a teacup: "What's wrong, what do you think?"

Xu Ruxing showed a warm smile: "Xu Cang, do you believe that good people are rewarded?"

Xu Cang was stunned by the question, and he didn't know how to answer for a moment.

However, before Xu Cang could reply, Xu Ruxing spoke first: "Do you want to hear my thoughts?"

"Huh?" Xu Cang was taken aback: "Doctor, please tell me."

"I didn't believe it before, but now I believe it." Xu Ruxing said in a special tone: "I hope you can believe it too."

Xu Cang nodded half-understood: "I have been taught."

This question was actually quite straightforward, but Xu Cang felt that there was something in Xu Ru's jargon.

"Keep it in mind, let's go."

With a hint of doubt, Xu Cang finally left Xu Ruxing's house without saying anything.

……

After Xu Cang left Xu Ruxing's residence, he chatted with Yi Feng for a while.Yi Feng has already submitted his resignation, but he has lived in Hanjing for a long time, even if the relationship at work is severed, some life matters still need to be dealt with.

In this regard, Xu Cang expressed his understanding and asked Yi Feng to deal with everything before coming to Erhai Lake.Moreover, Xu Cang will go to Weiyang to accompany his mother in the operation these few days, and he doesn't care about things over Erhai Lake.

As Xu Ruxing said, Xu Ruxing went to Weiyang the day after tomorrow to have a final examination for Xu Cang's mother. The result was very optimistic, and the operation was scheduled for the next morning.

Xu Cang was not very worried because he had received Xu Ruxing's evaluation of the difficulty of the operation before.But his father was different. Even though Xu Cang comforted him, Xu Zhenming couldn't sleep that night, which made Xu Cang, who was not nervous before, start to get nervous.

In the early morning, due to Xu Ruxing's reasons, the hospital paid close attention to Xu Cang's mother's operation and sent many people to help.It is said that Xu Ruxing also relied on his personal relationship to find a well-known domestic anesthetist in order to be sure.

The operation lasted for a full three hours. Xu Ruxing came out ahead of time, perhaps because he hadn't had the operation for a long time. Xu Ruxing's eyes were full of fatigue.

"The operation was successful. The patient is still under anesthesia. He will come out after 5 minutes of observation. Please wait here."

When Xu Zhenming heard this, he was so grateful that he almost shed tears.

"Successful surgery is only the first step, and follow-up observation of rejection should be careful. However, I will not participate in this matter." Xu Ruxing took off his mask and sighed: "I didn't even feel that ten hours of surgery was too much before. I’m tired, I can’t stand it for three hours now, it really is useless. Well, you guys wait here, I should pack up and go back to Hanjing.”

Xu Ruxing was about to leave, but suddenly remembered something, and waved to Xu Cang: "Xu Cang, send me off."

Only then did Xu Zhenming come to his senses, and quickly patted Xu Cang: "Aren't you going?"

"Let's go, let's go!" Xu Cang was almost unable to stand still because of his father's push.However, he still walked towards Xu Ruxing, the two of them stood shoulder to shoulder, and their figures disappeared at the end of the corridor together.

Xu Cang only stayed in Weiyang for one day, and then returned to Erhai Lake.The mother recovered very well after the operation, and with Xu Ruxing's explanation, the hospital has 1 cares, and nothing will happen.

Although from a personal emotional point of view, Xu Cang still hopes to be with his mother more.But his father, Xu Zhenming, saw that Xu Cang looked a little distracted, so he knew that Xu Cang had other things to be busy with.Xu Cang is not a child now, so he cannot be tied up.So under Xu Zhenming's repeated persuasion, Xu Cang finally went back to Erhai Lake to deal with the matter.

Xu Cang had just returned to Erhai Lake when he met Xiao Lingyun who came over.

Xiao Lingyun originally planned to go to South Korea according to Xu Cang's intention, but the matter was not so urgent. Before going abroad, Xiao Lingyun stopped by Erhai Lake.Anyway, in this day and age, flying by plane is very convenient, so it's not a problem.

As a result, by coincidence, Xu Cang and Xiao Lingyun almost arrived at Erhai Lake.

Xu Cang was not very surprised by Xiao Lingyun's arrival, but Xu Cang felt a little surprised by the news Xiao Lingyun brought.

"The stock price of Asiana Airlines fell so hard?"

On a high slope outside the base, Xu Cang and Xiao Lingyun stood on a high point, facing the breeze, and Xu Cang's slightly surprised voice echoed in the wind.

Xiao Lingyun nodded: "This time the Civil Aviation Administration of Korea found out that Asiana Airlines has falsified a large number of documents, not only limited to flight crew qualifications, but also various incident reports. The nature is very serious. I heard that within the next year, Asiana Airlines will not A new route may be added."

"Why?" Just as Xu Cang asked, he came to his senses: "The Korean Civil Aviation Administration doesn't accept any applications from Asiana Airlines, right?"

"That's right!" Xiao Lingyun confirmed: "This is probably just a foretaste, and the follow-up punishment has not been announced yet. Although Asiana Airlines has avoided the period of rapid expansion, Asiana Airlines is in a critical period of competition with Korean Air. First hand, Asiana Airlines is very uncomfortable."

Korean Air is eager to acquire the only domestic competitor.Unexpectedly, Asiana Airlines blew itself up before I made any effort, which was a surprise.

After Xiao Lingyun finished speaking, he looked at Xu Cang with piercing eyes: "I'm really curious, how did you know that something happened to Asiana Airlines?"

For the reborn Xu Cang, the Asiana Airlines fraud incident was already engraved in his mind.However, compared to the previous life, the time of the Asiana Airlines accident seems to be slightly earlier this time, which surprised Xu Cang.

"Where did I say that Asiana Airlines is going to have an accident?" Xu Cang smiled: "I just asked you to focus on Asiana Airlines. You are too good at thinking."

"Who are you lying to! You looked like Asiana Airlines as something in your pocket, and you said I was crazy?" Xiao Lingyun snorted: "Forget it, everyone has their own secrets, you don't want to say it. I won't ask any more."

Xu Cang was quite satisfied with Xiao Lingyun's wit and interest.

"Korean Air hasn't made a move yet. Falsified documents, that's a huge scandal. I don't believe Korean Air will let go of such a good opportunity."

Xiao Lingyun's eyes flickered: "You mean that Asiana Airlines will suffer more, so why don't we take the opportunity to make a fortune?"

"Didn't I tell you that we need to save the money to do other things. Besides, let's take the opportunity to make a fortune. If the people from Asiana Airlines find out, they will think that I am a hindrance and affect my subsequent arrangements. "

"Arrangement? Arrangement for what?" Xiao Lingyun turned sideways and looked directly at Xu Cang: "I'm really curious. What do you say you want to keep the money for?"

Xu Cang said with a smile: "Shorting Asiana Airlines is nothing but a petty profit. Keeping the money, of course, it seems that Asiana Airlines is at its lowest point and bought it directly."

"Acquiring Asiana Airlines? What are you kidding?" Xiao Lingyun immediately felt that Xu Cang was crazy: "Yes, we have made a lot of money overseas, but it is still very reluctant to directly acquire Asiana Airlines, even if the shares of Asiana Airlines All the way down. Moreover, if you want to buy Asiana Airlines, Korean Air doesn’t want it? Korean Air wants to acquire Asiana Airlines even in their dreams. Are we going to bid with Korean Air? Isn’t that courting death?”

What Xiao Lingyun meant was very simple, even if the stock of Asiana Airlines plummeted, the acquisition price of Asiana Airlines would definitely be too high due to the existence of Korean Air, a competitor.Originally, his own funds were not enough, so Xu Cang's acquisition of Asiana Airlines after such a bidding is simply a fantasy.

You know, even if Asiana Airlines stretches its hips again, it is the second largest airline in South Korea. A skinny camel is bigger than a horse, so it cannot be underestimated.

"Don't worry, Asiana Airlines will not be sold to Korean Air." Xu Cang said firmly, "These two companies are in the same situation, and the board of directors of Asiana Airlines will definitely not agree to the acquisition."

Xiao Lingyun disdainfully said: "If Korean Air offers a price that cannot be refused, the board of directors of Asiana Airlines can still insist? I don't believe it!"

"Then there is another reason involved." Xu Cang's smile concealed a hint of cunning: "Compared to being committed to others, Asiana Airlines naturally prefers to remain independent."

"However, this time, Korean Air has to step Asiana Airlines into the mud and remain independent?"

Xu Cang raised his eyebrows: "But what if I can help Asiana Airlines come back to life?"

Xiao Lingyun was stunned for a moment: "What did you say?"

"I mean, I have a way to bring up the slumped Asiana Airlines." Xu Cang pursed his lips: "However, there is one thing you said is true. We still don't have enough money now, so we have to buy more Get some money."

Xiao Lingyun sneered beside him: "Now you are thinking about making money all day long."

"Otherwise?" Xu Cang said with a smile: "I think Asiana Airlines can last for a while. This period of time is just for us to save some money. I have decided and agreed to the deal with Boeing."

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Lingyun's face changed suddenly. He knew what kind of deal Boeing was going to make with Xu Cang, which was the flight data recorder of 1566.However, this move will undoubtedly arouse the resentment of the mysterious giant crocodile in the financial market.

That guy even dared to mess with Boeing. Isn't it just a matter of minutes to mess with Xu Cang?

"You're looking for death, you dare to meddle in this? Didn't you tell me to quit earlier, why are you making it up by yourself now?"

Xu Cang patted Xiao Lingyun on the shoulder, signaling Xiao Lingyun not to be impatient: "Don't worry, there will be no revenge."

"What did you say?" Xiao Lingyun's eyes brightened: "Do you know who is working on Boeing?"

Xu Cang did not say clearly: "Anyway, there will be no revenge."

"It's mysterious." Xiao Lingyun was very dissatisfied with Xu Cang's half-spoken behavior. However, he still adhered to some principles and did not ask in detail. If Xu Cang wanted to tell him, he would naturally say: "However, you are going to In exchange for what from Boeing?"

However, Xu Cang did not answer Xiao Lingyun directly, but instead asked: "Do you know what makes the most money in civil aviation?"

"how could I know?"

Xu Cang smiled and said: "It's aviation materials! Not only are the profit margins extremely exaggerated, but also the flow of water is long. It's not the one-shot sale of airplanes. Whether it's Boeing or Airbus, selling airplanes can naturally make a lot of money, but in the long run The income must be the sale of genuine aviation materials. A light bulb the size of a fingernail costs several hundred, which is no different from stealing money.”

"But I heard that some domestically produced aviation materials have already reached the genuine standard, so why buy foreign products? Isn't this just sending money abroad?"

"Because the airlines dare not use it. If they don't purchase aviation materials from the aircraft manufacturer or its authorized channels, if something happens to the aircraft material and causes a safety incident, the airline cannot get compensation from the aircraft manufacturer. Xu Cang explained: "Moreover, most of the terms for using genuine aviation materials exist in the aircraft purchase or lease agreement. It's not that airlines don't want to, but they can't and dare not."

Xiao Lingyun seemed to have some taste: "Then what do you mean?"

"What is it?"

Before Xu Cang could answer, a woman's voice suddenly came from behind them, which really startled them.Xu Cang turned around and found that Shi Lingling was looking at him suspiciously: "What are you thinking about? I just heard something about aviation materials."

"It's nothing, our company is short of aviation materials, so we're talking about it." Xu Cang casually said: "You came here suddenly, what's the matter?"

After Xu Cang changed the subject, Shi Lingling did not ask about the aviation materials anymore, but instead had a sad face: "Didn't you say that I was going to handle the Shanghai air route?"

Xu Cang was startled, but immediately realized, and asked eagerly, "Any news?"

"It's more suitable to have a flight route. Fly over from Jianchuan at [-] o'clock in the morning, then take a Korean flight back and forth, and fly back the next morning."

Xu Cang smacked his lips: "You want to stay overnight?"

"That's right! If you want to stay overnight, you can only fly over from Jianchuan before seven o'clock in the morning, but it's almost ten o'clock when you arrive in Shanghai. The Shanghai airport does not accept this landing time. You know, we are begging for help. There is no place to pick and choose for those who work."

Xu Cang thought for a while: "Just stay overnight, it's not like you can save money anywhere."

As soon as Xu Cang finished speaking here, Xiao Lingyun lowered his voice and approached Xu Cang: "Where will you fly when this route is empty, South Korea? Didn't the three China-Korea routes that Asiana Airlines promised to cooperate with you fail? Don't you?" Toss in vain?"

Now the Civil Aviation Administration of Korea does not accept any application from Asiana Airlines, so the Shanghai-Seoul, Shanghai-Incheon and Shanghai-Busan routes are all gone.Xu Cang is still thinking about the China-Korea route, and even spent the night at the Shanghai airport for this purpose, which is not a small cost.

However, Xu Cang asked Xiao Lingyun back: "Who said I made time for those three routes?"

"Huh?" Xiao Lingyun was stunned for a moment: "Where did the time fly in the middle?"

The moment that Shi Lingling made happened to be in the middle of a China-Korea route that could fly round-trip, but the meaning is self-evident.It's just that the three routes of Seoul, Busan and Incheon can't be counted on. Where else can I fly?What else is worth flying to in Korea?

"You will know later." Xu Cang turned to Shi Lingling again: "Seeing you like this, there is still a problem with this route?"

"Yes." Shi Lingling sighed: "You also know that it is very troublesome to arrange the plane and crew to stay overnight in Shanghai. However, Shanghai Airport can't wait for us to make all the arrangements. Shanghai The meaning of the airport is that the flight will start within three days. If it does not open, the seat will be transferred to others. But, how to start the flight within three days? We can't even figure out where the crew will live. However, there is a hotel next to the airport, which is Tiandong Airlines Yes, but only female guests are accepted there.”

Now Xu Cang was confused: "What do you mean, there are men and women in the hotel?"

"Oh, it's just that if the pilot and the flight attendant live in the same place, there will be more such things, so Tiandong Airlines is divided into two places." Shi Lingling blushed when she said: "I have inquired, I know Which hotel will the other flight crews staying overnight in Shanghai stay in? However, it takes a lot of time just to sign a contract with that hotel, how can we catch up? Moreover, we have not made an agreement with the airport.”

"No, I have a question." Xiao Lingyun raised a hand: "Why do you have to sign a contract? It's enough to let the crew live in a hotel as an ordinary person, and live for a while. Is it possible that you still care about this?" How much difference?"

If the airline signs a contract with the hotel, the room rate must be lower.And if the crew stays in the form of individual passengers, the price will definitely be much higher.However, it doesn't matter if you lose a little at the very moment.After signing the contract, there is no need to do this.

"The problem is not with the hotel, but with the airport." Xu Cang sighed: "We are the crew, and we need to go up to prepare the plane in advance, so we must not go with the passengers, right? However, if we don't discuss the cooperation details with the airport, we When we went to the airport, who would open the boarding gate for us in advance, and what would the separate shuttle bus be called if we encountered a long-distance flight? There are still many messy things.”

Shi Lingling nodded: "That's what it means. We can guarantee the plane at most, but the crew is not so easy to guarantee. Three days is too short, and many things can't be discussed at all. The crew is easy to solve, and they will go to heaven In the airport hotel of China Eastern Airlines, where there is an infield car responsible for pick-up and drop-off, there are mainly male crew members, such as your flight crew, which is difficult to handle.”

Xiao Lingyun understood somewhat: "You mean, male crew members may not be able to come in early after leaving the airport."

"That's right, you can't let the flight crew prepare the plane, can you?" Shi Lingling said helplessly, "However, it is already very difficult for me to fight for this route. The meaning of Shanghai Airport is to open the flight, and the frequency of follow-up flights can be discussed, but The land must be taken. Otherwise, the land will have to be given to someone else. As you know, there is a lot of competition in Shanghai. If you miss this time, you don’t know when it will be your turn."

"Then this is really not easy." Xiao Lingyun scratched his head, feeling that there is a lot of knowledge in civil aviation.

"What's the problem?" Xu Cang snorted heavily: "If you can't come in after going out, then don't go out, isn't that all right?"

Shi Lingling was startled: "Why don't you go out, the plane will spend the night."

After finishing speaking, Shi Lingling seemed to think of something: "Xu Cang, don't you?"

Three days later, at the security checkpoint of Erhai Airport.

The Shanghai-Shanghai route started on time. However, in the morning, the plane had to fly from Erhai Lake to Jianchuan, and then from Jianchuan to Shanghai.This route is nothing, but when the crew members appeared at the security checkpoint of Erhai Airport, the scene was quite shocking.

Teacher Mo Shangyun was at the head, followed by Xu Cang, followed by a large group of flight attendants, and finally the safety officer. This is the crew of the maiden voyage to Shanghai.

This is not a new scene at all, but the chief purser standing at the front of the crew has dodged eyes, resting on his forehead with one hand, wishing to find a crack in the ground to sneak in, and the flight attendants behind him also have different expressions. It's like a monkey show.

I saw that Mo Shangyun and Xu Cang not only pulled a flight case, but also carried a huge luggage behind them, which was bulging like a big turtle shell.

Under such a ridiculous scene, Mo Shangyun and Xu Cang held their heads upright, completely unaware of their strangeness.If it weren't for the two-person pilot's uniform, the security inspector would have thought it was an urgent march with heavy loads!

After the documents are scanned, things have to go through an X-ray machine.The flight case passed normally, but the luggage of the two of them was too huge to pass through the machine at all. After checking with the naked eye, the security officer's head was as big as a bucket.

"I said, what are you bringing and why are you going?" The security inspector couldn't help it.

Seeing Xu Cang put his luggage heavily on the conveyor belt of the X-ray machine, he hummed, "I'm a pilot, so it's reasonable to bring a quilt on board the plane?"
