Thousands of miles away, on the benches in the square outside the Rolls-Royce headquarters in Derbyshire, England, Chief Engineer Joe is enjoying afternoon tea leisurely.For the British, many things can be discarded, but a reassuring afternoon tea is indispensable.
Not far away, the Rolls-Royce logo in the center of the square has a layer of gold plating on its edges under the bright afternoon sun.
Although all kinds of work are busy and busy now, this moment of peace can give Joe enough relaxation.
Suddenly, Song Xinyang's appearance broke the tranquility.
"I have to drink afternoon tea here at this time every day. I can't be shaken." Song Xinyang sat beside Qiao and joked.
"Song, that's why you're not an authentic Englishman, and you don't know what afternoon tea means to us." Joe laughed.
"That's right, the tea I drink is different from yours. I drink Longjing." As he spoke, Song Xinyang handed a video playback device similar to a thick tablet to Joe: "There is something I need you to look at."
Joe didn't take it right away, but kept holding the teacup: "Song, it's time for a break, you're embarrassing me."
Song Xinyang smiled and said, "You won't feel embarrassed after reading it."
The specific model of the plane, where the airspace is, why the maneuver was made, what the weather conditions were at the time, and who was operating the plane, all are unknown.
The secretary whispered: "Reliable, and"
It's not that Tan Linlin and Wu Yue intentionally made things difficult for Xu Cang, but they wanted to intervene out of the mentality of the elders who were afraid of the younger generation's disadvantage, so as to save Xu Cang from the burden of Kingfisher Airlines.
A long time ago, the car brand Rolls-Royce was a sub-brand of Rolls-Royce.However, after the Rolls-Royce bankruptcy incident, Rolls-Royce was spun off and has nothing to do with Rolls-Royce.
"Is there any objection from the General Administration?" Mo Shangyun asked.
The lens of the picture is very stable, chasing the plane directly, always placing the plane in the center of the picture, it can be seen that the level of the photographer is still a little bit.
Song Xinyang's secretary said softly: "The specific time has not been determined, but there is a high probability that it will be completed within this year. The test flight platform is tentatively scheduled to be Boeing 720."
Originally, Joe felt a little dissatisfied with Song Xinyang for interrupting his afternoon tea, but now, this dissatisfaction has long since dissipated, and what is left is only curiosity, seeking knowledge and fun.
Promoting two engine projects at the same time, this is completely the game of rich and powerful local tyrants, how can Luo Luo stop it?
Qiao breathed a sigh of relief: "The world's largest civil aviation market is the European and American markets, followed by the East Asian market. In the European and American markets, it seems that we cannot prevent GM and Pratt & Whitney from harvesting profits, so we can only do it in the East Asian market. article."
However, it was this glance that directly pulled Joe out of the leisurely afternoon tea time.
In Joe's first thought, this video must have been technically processed, because the maneuverability of the 737 in the screen has far exceeded the limit of the model itself, and it has also exceeded Joe's cognition.
"How much money does Pratt & Whitney have for the development of two new engines?" Song Xinyang leaned back on the bench, trying to take a deep breath to calm his inner unrest.
Qiao solemnly said: "It's a pity to waste such a talent all at once. I think we can re-adjust the Trent 1000 to make it more stable, at least not to have too outrageous failures, so as to increase Xu Cang's test flight experience." Survival rate."
Although it didn't take much to bring Kingfisher Airlines into the bag, it can't change the current situation of Kingfisher Airlines' continuous loss.In the past, Kingfisher Airlines was responsible for losing money, but Xu Cang will be responsible for losing money later.
As long as Xu Cang can really develop an engine with sufficient performance, it will be rolled out across the country, which is almost certain, no matter from the attitude of the people or the government.
At this point, Chen Xiangdong didn't intend to say anything more, so he hung up the phone readily.
"That's true." Tan Linlin nodded: "Look at the last few photos. Your apprentice really thought far ahead, not only the application for mergers and acquisitions, but also the application for the entry of foreign aircraft."
Song Xinyang hadn't finished speaking when his cell phone rang suddenly. After checking the number, it was his secretary calling.
Grasping with both hands like this is naturally high risk and high reward.
Chen Xiangdong said bluntly: "Well. Director Wu and Director Tan came to see me just now. They said that you want to buy British Kingfisher Airlines. Is there such a thing?"
As agreed before, Xu Cang will bear the tax.Of course, with British property tax, a lot of tax would be paid just for this gift.However, compared to the overall scale of Kingfisher Airlines, Xu Cang still made a huge profit.
Soon, the phone was connected, and Xu Cang's voice came from the other side: "Master, what's wrong?"
In the circle of low-cost airlines, Kingfisher Airlines is quite well-known, and it is not surprising that Chen Xiangdong knows about it.However, in Chen Xiangdong's impression, the scale of Kingfisher Airlines is still acceptable, only Xu Cang's wealth can eat Kingfisher Airlines.Moreover, is it really necessary to acquire a foreign airline company across the ocean? Don’t worry about management issues. After all, the corporate cultures of the two sides are completely different, and there may be a situation where one plus one is less than two. .
If Xu Cang worked harder and extended the engine to the entire East Asian region, it would be a disaster for the East Asian market of the general-purpose and Pratt & Whitney systems.
Soon, a young man who looked less than 30 years old ran all the way over and handed a document to Song Xinyang, and Qiao who was next to him also leaned over to take a look.
"You run it yourself?"
"I" Song Xinyang's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot: "PW8000, that aero-engine for narrow-body aircraft?"
"What's the matter, it doesn't look right." After such a movement, Chen Xiangdong closed the document, saw the expression of Tan Linlin, the director of the Transportation Department, and frowned: "What happened?"
Without the profit support of the East Asian market, Joe didn't believe that GM and Pratt & Whitney dared to spend money on scientific research unscrupulously.
If GM’s GE90 is limited in its applicable market due to its huge size, then its shrunken version of GENx undoubtedly has a brighter prospect, and it has already produced the most direct competition with Rolls-Royce’s market.Coupled with the future intervention of Pratt & Whitney's PW6000, Rolls-Royce's market space will be further squeezed.
However, Mo Shangyun didn't know about Sir Capet, and Xu Cang would not tell Mo Shangyun everything in detail.
The best thing is that both of them succeed, which will enable Pratt & Whitney to maintain a leading position in the field of narrow-body aircraft and wide-body aircraft for a long time.
"Our market in East Asia is completely inferior to that of the general-purpose department and the general-purpose department. In times of crisis, how can we care about such petty profits?" Joe scolded, and he pointed to a building in the distance: " It used to be the headquarters building of our automobile department, but now it doesn't belong to us anymore. Could it be that we still have to sit and wait to die?"
"Xu Cang, Xu Cang." Qiao muttered softly, repeating Xu Cang's name.Suddenly, he returned the video player to Song Xinyang, and sighed softly: "It's not surprising if it's him. Song, I think it's necessary to postpone the Trent 1000 test."
Chen Xiangdong nodded: "OK!"
That being the case, the bureau wouldn't have ordered the captains of Spring Airlines to set an elimination target because of this, right?
Mo Shangyun, who had been waiting in the car for a while, saw that Xu Cang was late, so he couldn't help but ask, "What's important?"
Chen Xiangdong was taken aback: "What do you mean, he bought a plane?"
Song Xinyang's face was extremely ugly. Just now, he also said that it was fortunate that Puhui didn't make any new moves, so he was slapped in the face in an instant.
Joe clicked the play button, and the main content of the screen seemed to be a canyon. In the airspace in the middle of the canyon, there was actually an airplane operating, which seemed to be a Boeing 737.
Although Tan Linlin said so, in fact, because airline mergers and acquisitions are relatively routine business practices, as long as there are no obvious problems, the bureau will not intervene.
"What to do?" Song Xinyang spread his hands: "Don't say that the Trent 1000 is still there, even if the Trent 1000 comes out now, it's just to ease the situation, and the situation has not changed substantially. General Motors and Pratt & Whitney, I .Take Pratt & Whitney as an example, PW6000 and PW8000 are being developed at the same time, so they are not afraid of overturning?"
Song Xinyang grimaced: "Okay, I understand. But, what is your idea? Just transfer the technology to Xu Cang unconditionally?"
Chen Xiangdong didn't believe it: "Why are you so sure? What's the reason?"
Xu Cang asked in a low voice: "Is there any indicator recently?"
At present, nearly two-thirds of Spring Airlines’ aircraft are ARJ21, and there are not many real trunk airliners, at least compared with Kingfisher Airlines, they are much weaker.
Aircraft is rather special in nature, and it cannot be completely regarded as an item.Especially when importing foreign aircraft, approval from the General Administration is required to pass the customs, otherwise the customs will not pass.
If the Bureau really felt that the incident was serious, it would not have let the Southwest Bureau investigate, and Chunxia Airlines would have handled it by itself, and ended up in person.
Mo Shangyun waved his hand: "It doesn't matter, I'll be fine for a few days at night. By the way, I also answered Mr. Lu's call just now. The three captains we sent for investigation this time all hung up, and we will send two more later." When I went out, it was inspected by the appointed representative of Muhua Aviation Jianchuan Base. Mr. Lu asked me if I knew the appointed representative over there, and asked me to tell them in private, so that I can be more lenient."
Chen Xiangdong thought for a while, then nodded: "I'll give him a call."
Chen Xiangdong knew the surname of Capet, after all, it was a family with a long history, and the British flag.In fact, the Capet family is quite famous not only in the UK, but also in the whole of Europe, with its branches all over Europe.
If both projects are successful, Luo Luo will basically be cornered.
Just now, he flew a round trip from Erhai Lake to Tianning, and he was paired with Mo Shangyun, who happened to be his driver and co-pilot's route check.
Xu Cang put down the flight case, found a vacant seat in the car, and greeted the driver to leave, and then returned to Mo Shangyun: "My master is looking for me. It's nothing serious. It's about Kingfisher Airlines. The General Administration is reviewing."
"Sure enough, saving lives is a great kindness. You are really lucky, kid, and you can meet all of these." Chen Xiangdong honestly didn't know what to say: "So it really didn't cost much, then What about the future? Kingfisher Airlines will lose money later on, and it will be your own money that will be lost.”
The secretary gritted his teeth: "There is still news that has not been confirmed. Pratt & Whitney's PW8000 engine project has already begun to be demonstrated."
The secretary nodded: "That's it."
"Where did you get so much money?" Chen Xiangdong snorted heavily: "Also, do you know that Kingfisher Airlines' financial situation is very bad now? Don't keep thinking about buying things, it's not easy to save some money, and it's not easy Just buy money-losing goods."
Wu Yue raised his hand to stop Chen Xiangdong: "One more thing, ICAO's flight commissioner certificate has been issued, you can ask him whether he will come here by himself or we will send it by mail. Forget it, let him come here by himself, to save money Something went wrong. In addition, their company’s application for reinstating Mo Shangyun’s agency-appointed representative has encountered some minor problems in the document review, which may take a while, so let him take it easy.”
The current research and development of aero-engines costs tens or even tens of billions of dollars. If the project fails, most of the previous investment will be in vain.Therefore, even aero engine giants will only start the development of a new generation of engines after an engine technology is mature.
Chen Xiangdong laughed: "It seems that you are quite considerate of Xu Cang."
"If it's not that Pratt & Whitney's executives are crazy, it's that they have sufficient funds and are confident to bear the losses caused by the project." Qiao said coldly.
In the medium case, if one project succeeds and the other fails, there is a high probability that there will be losses and profits, and there will be no injury.
Song Xinyang quickly understood Qiao's meaning: "You mean to cooperate with Xu Cang and actively give him the core technology of the engine?"
The worst case is that two projects fail at the same time. This is a situation that even Luo Luo dare not think about, but Pratt & Whitney dares to do it.
To be honest, before Luo Luo didn't care much about Xu Cang's life or death, they only wanted the key data parameters of Trent 1000.However, it is different now. Judging from Xu Cang's terrifying strength, Qiao feels that the two sides can cooperate more in the future, instead of pushing Xu Cang into a situation where the Trent 1000 may be consumed at one time.
"What article? East Asia is the fastest growing civil aviation market, but it is also the region with the largest demand for general-purpose and Pratt & Whitney engines. How to make an article?" Song Xinyang asked rhetorically.
"Sino-Japanese route?" Chen Xiangdong was stunned: "Where exactly?"
Chen Xiangdong pondered for a moment: "Since Xu Cang submitted the application, it must have been carefully considered."
"I really don't understand how Pratt & Whitney is so rich." Song Xinyang scolded.
When Xu Cang picked up Chen Xiangdong just now, he had just landed from the flight and was waiting to get in the car and leave.
"It's definitely impossible." Joe lowered his head and pondered, "I'll think again, think again."
For airlines that have experienced unsafe incidents, they will become the focus of attention in the next period of time, and the captain will definitely receive special care during the investigation.
"I'm his master, not his father, and I feel that even his father can't take care of so many things, right?" Chen Xiangdong was replying to Tan Linlin's words while turning in his mind: "Xu Cang has his own ideas, and I also have my own ideas." Can't you interfere in everything?"
Song Xinyang's heart tightened: "Huh? What's the matter, what's the problem?"
"Kingfisher Airlines?" Chen Xiangdong recalled a little: "The low-cost airline?"
Qiao thought for a moment: "It seems that our previous estimate of our situation was too optimistic, and we must do something."
"Oh?" Qiao looked at Song Xinyang in surprise, hesitated, put the teacup aside, and took the video player.
"Holy Fuck!" Joe stood up suddenly, and his exclamation directly alarmed other employees in the surrounding Luoluo headquarters.However, facing the strange eyes cast by his colleagues, Qiao Na didn't care. He just looked at the video player in his hand in astonishment.
"Something happened, but it's not a bad thing." Tan Linlin slapped a stack of documents on Chen Xiangdong's desk: "Your apprentice is really capable of trouble."
On the apron of Erhai Airport, Xu Cang also put down his cell phone.At this moment, he was dragging the flight case, and his eyes fell on the infield car not far away.
As an initial member, Mo Shangyun still has a relatively high status in Spring Airlines, knowing that Xu Cang is about to accept the British Kingfisher Airlines.
"But that can't completely stop the loss."
"All three died?" Hearing this, Xu Cang also found it inconceivable.
"This plane is running with a single engine." Song Xinyang explained from the side.
"PW6000 is going to conduct flight tests?" Joe couldn't help but lose color after seeing the contents of the document.
"Is the news reliable?" Song Xinyang asked solemnly.
This situation is more likely to occur when purchasing or leasing foreign aircraft.
Accompanied by Song Xinyang's sudden drink, Qiao suddenly discovered that the 737 airliner in the picture had completed an operation almost hovering and turning in the air with an incredible maneuver.
Regardless, the loss of the auto division is on the minds of every Rollo.Now it seems that we have reached a certain historical decision-making point, and it is time for Luo Luo to make a choice.
"One of the big problems of Kingfisher Airlines is excess capacity and low aircraft utilization rate. Our spring and summer airlines are just in the rising period, and the capacity is not enough. Internal adjustments can reduce a large part of the cost."
Originally, Chen Xiangdong wanted to make a phone call in the office.As a result, being stared at by Tan Linlin and Wu Yue, Chen Xiangdong felt very uncomfortable, so he found an excuse and went out to make a phone call.
"Fly from Rongfu to Tokyo, from Shanghai to Tokyo, from Yangcheng to Tokyo, etc."
Originally, Chen Xiangdong understood everything, but when he heard about the gift, Chen Xiangdong became vigilant all of a sudden: "It's true, it's fake, just give it to an airline company, who is so bold?"
Tan Linlin rolled her eyes: "If you only count mainline airliners, the fleet size of Kingfisher Airlines is more than twice that of Spring Airlines.
"Bullshit! Can this be based on feeling?" Chen Xiangdong scolded, but he still didn't continue to struggle, he could hear that Xu Cang had made up his mind: "Forget it, I can't help it if you really make a decision. , you think more than I do. The Department of Transportation and the Department of Flying Standards will agree to your application."
Once an engine has completed the flight test, it means that it is not far from commercial use.Even if it is not yet fully commercialized, some aircraft manufacturers will begin to identify it as their own power system in advance.
"Yup!"
So, in order to dispel Chen Xiangdong's doubts, Xu Cang told all about Sir Capet.Hearing that, Chen Xiangdong was taken aback for a while.
"No, Master didn't mention it to me." Xu Cang agreed with Mo Shangyun, and this matter should have nothing to do with the bureau: "Is it the problem of the three captains who sent it over?"
Just like donating a house to others, you also need to pay taxes, even if Sir Capet donated Kingfisher Aviation to Xu Cang, you still need to pay taxes.
Joe just read the beginning, didn't think there was anything unusual, so he said, "Song, what do you want me to see? A plane flying through the canyon, what's the point?"
"It's something." Song Xinyang's expression was still calm, but based on his understanding of his secretary, the tone of the call just now seemed not so optimistic.
Chen Xiangdong is the second-in-command of the General Administration, and if it's true, Chen Xiangdong should also know about it.Give Xu Cang some breath, and it won't be too difficult to think about it.
And these two words directly made Song Xinyang's eyelids twitch wildly: "Is there anything else?"
"Impossible, how can the 737 hover and turn, only the vector engine can complete such a maneuver." Qiao raised his head and looked directly at Song Xinyang: "You show me such a ridiculous thing, what's the point?"
Just like Rolls-Royce, although the Trent 900 has not yet been fully commercialized, it is almost ready and mature enough.After that, work on the Trent 1000 began.
"However, we also have market interests in East Asia, isn't that not good for us?" Song Xinyang wondered.
Song Xinyang held his breath, waited for a while, and suddenly shouted: "Look!"
If any serious safety accident happens during this period, the investigation will definitely be stricter.Or in some special period, the higher-ups will order it down, and even deliberately arrange a elimination rate, and it is rigid.
"Buy an airplane, what kind of airplane to buy, he is an internal adjustment." Tan Linlin snorted: "After Kingfisher Airlines under him, he plans to transfer ten 737s of Kingfisher Airlines into the country, tsk tsk tsk, the application for mergers and acquisitions will follow the entry into the customs Submitting the application together, he really has nothing to fear."
Wu Yue said with a smile: "We didn't come here to ask questions. It is a good attempt for a domestic airline company to acquire a large-scale foreign airline company. However, we checked the situation of Kingfisher Airlines. Kingfisher Airlines was indeed very good before. It is developing very fast, but it is in a financial crisis recently, and the situation is not good. If Xu Cang wants to accept Kingfisher Airlines, I am worried that it will become a burden on him instead.”
Now the world's three major aero engine giants, General Motors and Pratt & Whitney, have launched their own new generation of aero engines. In contrast, Rolls-Royce's Trent 900 seems not enough, even for Airbus, which is also a European company. , and did not use the Trent 900 as the only power option for the A380.
Checking this kind of thing is related to many factors.Technology is definitely one aspect, and it must also be combined with the external environment at that time.
Xu Cang heard what Mo Shangyun said: "A question about the inspector? Then teacher, do you want to meet the inspector?"
The situation is pretty bad!
Just like the LEAP engine, the power core of the new generation of narrow-body aircraft of Boeing and Airbus, before the LEAP engine has completely completed the research and development process, Boeing and Airbus have already determined the choice of the LEAP engine, which is the reason.
Speaking of this, Xu Cang suddenly remembered something: "Master, if I want to open a China-Japan air route, is it easy?"
Wu Yue, director of the flying standard department, said helplessly: "Old Chen, your apprentice is going to take over the British Kingfisher Airlines, don't you know?"
Song Xinyang shook his head: "I also hope that this is just a fake video, but the fact is that this video is very likely to be true. I managed to get this, and it is kept confidential over there and cannot be leaked casually. "
Of course, usually the person who hired the captain must have two brushes.Even if it is more difficult to check the appointed representatives of other companies, it will not be annihilated.
Generally speaking, there will be a certain percentage of captains and above on a regular basis to be inspected by appointed representatives of other companies.If the inspection fails, the qualification of the captain will be suspended directly and downgraded to a senior co-pilot.
Xu Cang smiled and said, "It's okay, there's no rush."
After hanging up the phone, Joe brought back the teacup that he had put down before: "Why, what's the matter?"
Mo Shangyun shook his head: "I still don't understand this matter. Didn't your master give you some breath?"
Song Xinyang asked Qiao to study for a while, and after waiting for about 5 minutes, Song Xinyang said: "It is reported that the person on the plane is Xu Cang."
"Yes. Although I don't know what the purpose is, but from the information fed back from there, there is a high probability that it is him."
Knowing that Chen Xiangdong was concerned about him, Xu Cang's heart warmed, and he patiently explained: "Master, Kingfisher Airlines is only in a temporary crisis now, and it will definitely turn around in the future. I don't call it buying money-losing goods, it's called bargain hunting. And Strictly speaking, I didn’t buy Kingfisher Airlines, but accepted gifts from others, and someone gave Kingfisher Airlines to me directly. I only need to pay part of the property tax, and the investment is not as big as I imagined.”
But Pratt & Whitney is obviously not like this. One hand is PW6000, the other hand is PW8000, and both hands are grasped at the same time, so there is no need to worry about the breakage of funds.
"No, I will agree." Xu Cang said: "However, teacher, there is a small problem with the restoration of your appointed representative. You may need to wait a little longer, but the problem should not be serious."
"Didn't I tell you before? It's too difficult to rely on us to fight against GM and Pratt & Whitney. We must support a spoiler. Now I am more and more sure that the spoiler must be in East Asia." Joe affirmed: "Yes , the East Asian civil aviation market still favors general-purpose and Pratt & Whitney engines. However, as an emerging country, I don’t believe they will turn a blind eye to self-developed engines. If there is a self-produced aero engine with excellent performance, the local government will definitely Policy intervention will be carried out to artificially promote this engine, thereby squeezing out the market share of general-purpose and Pratt & Whitney engines.”
"Okay, I remember."
"However, the board of directors can't wait. GM's GE90 puts too much pressure on us, and the prospect of GENx is also quite good. We stumbled on the A380, and the disadvantages are already very large. Pratt & Whitney still has no new news, if"
"Also, ICAO's flight commissioner's certificate has come down, you can come here to get it, it's safer." Chen Xiangdong said: "Also, there are some problems with the recovery of the agency-appointed representative of your company. Just take a little longer, just wait."
However, even if it belongs to the Capet family, it would be outrageous to send an airline directly.
Joe slowly sat back on the bench, adjusted the video to 0.5 times the speed and slowed it down, savoring it carefully.
Qiao had been immersing himself in the study of the video, but when he heard Song Xinyang's words, he froze and turned his head: "Xu Cang?"
The captain's investigation is often divided into his own company and other companies.A large part of the reason for this system is to prevent the inspection of the same company from being released due to favors or other reasons.
That's the safe way to proceed.
"What?" Chen Xiangdong didn't understand, so his eyes fell on the document given by Tan Linlin, he just glanced at it briefly, and immediately raised his eyebrows: "Application for overseas mergers and acquisitions?"
However, too little information is known now.No matter how powerful Joe is, he still can't completely imagine the situation at that time.However, for the "hover" operation of the airliner, this picture alone is enough to make Joe feel mesmerized.
Without thinking too much, Song Xinyang connected the phone first.
Wu Yue suggested: "Old Chen, why don't you ask Xu Cang. Explain the matter to him clearly. If this is the result of his thinking, then we will naturally agree. If not, please persuade him, so as not to regret later .”
"General-purpose GENx, Pratt & Whitney's PW6000, damn it!" Song Xinyang's face sank like water. Originally, they only had to consider the impact of the general-purpose GENx, but now that Pratt & Whitney's PW6000 is about to undergo flight tests, they must also take it into consideration. bingo.
"Do we need to intervene?" Tan Linlin asked: "Domestic airlines need our consent to acquire foreign airlines, and we have the right to stop it."
"If this video is real, the way of thinking of the person who completed this maneuver is simply unconstrained. This is no longer something that can be accomplished solely by technology, and must rely on other external factors. It is impossible for the 737 to have such a maneuver, at least in the Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to completely rely on yourself." Joe rewound the progress bar of the video, and then paused: "Look, how far the nose of this plane has been raised, it has obviously exceeded the stall angle of attack but the plane hasn't stalled yet. Interesting, interesting, how on earth did he do it?"
"No." Mo Shangyun immediately retorted: "I know the three captains. I did the job inspections when they came over, and I have flown together a few times later. There is absolutely no problem with their skills. You To say that one of them didn't play by chance, I can understand, and it didn't happen to all three, it's so abnormal."
"Single shot? That's reasonable. It's not because I don't want to overcome obstacles, but because I don't have the ability to overcome obstacles." Qiao suddenly realized: "However, it doesn't make any sense, does it?"
Chen Xiangdong thought for a while, and was a little embarrassed: "I'm afraid this matter is not easy to handle. The number of China-Japan routes is negotiated between us and JCAB, and how to allocate them is relatively strict. Moreover, I don't care about this aspect. Things, so I don’t know much about it. When you come to get the commissioner’s certificate, stop by and ask the Department of Transportation and the Department of International Affairs, they are in charge.”
"Could it be that our company ran out of the runway not long ago?" Xu Cang asked strangely.
"Yeah, haven't I handed in all my applications?"
Chen Xiangdong said with a smile: "You really want to finish the matter at once."
"Well, I'm on the side of the bench in the square, why don't you come over here."
Xu Cang said: "There is no way to do this. But Master, I said that the loss of Kingfisher Airlines is only temporary, and it will recover on its own later."
In the Hanjing Civil Aviation Administration Building, Chen Xiangdong was looking through documents in his office. Suddenly, the door of his office was pushed open, and the directors of the Transportation Department and the Flight Standards Department came together, with weird expressions on their faces.
"This..." Joe calmed down and calmed down quickly, but the horror in his heart never diminished in the slightest: "The first engine test of PW6000 was more than a year ago. How long ago is the flight test going? At this speed"
However, the bureau just asked Spring Airlines to handle the matter of Binjiang Airport running off the runway, and then report the result.This is almost an attitude of not expanding the event.
In this day and age, portable tablets have not yet appeared, so this video player is slightly bloated.However, lightweight tablets will soon be available as well.
This time, Xu Cang stopped asking: "This... I can't say, feeling?"
Qiao glanced at Song Xinyang, and then looked at the picture on the video.Unfortunately, after the plane turned its nose and flew back for a while, the content after that was gone.
"I'm not familiar with him, so it's strange to make a special phone call, by the way."
Although Mo Shangyun didn't like this kind of thing, there was nothing he could do in society.Spring and Summer Airlines is not big, and it can withstand three captains. If it continues to hang up, it will be a big trouble.
"Well, I'll look for that person later, I know him. Find out if our captain's skills are not good enough, or for some other reason."
"Other reasons, what do you mean?" Xu Cang was startled when he heard that.
Mo Shangyun narrowed his eyes: "Boss Lu told me something just now. Apart from the investigation by the captain, the left seat co-pilot we sent to him for questioning has never been done. It's too abnormal. I feel like we are being targeted. "
(End of this chapter)
Thousands of miles away, on the benches in the square outside the Rolls-Royce headquarters in Derbyshire, England, Chief Engineer Joe is enjoying afternoon tea leisurely.For the British, many things can be discarded, but a reassuring afternoon tea is indispensable.
Not far away, the Rolls-Royce logo in the center of the square has a layer of gold plating on its edges under the bright afternoon sun.
Although all kinds of work are busy and busy now, this moment of peace can give Joe enough relaxation.
Suddenly, Song Xinyang's appearance broke the tranquility.
"I have to drink afternoon tea here at this time every day. I can't be shaken." Song Xinyang sat beside Qiao and joked.
"Song, that's why you're not an authentic Englishman, and you don't know what afternoon tea means to us." Joe laughed.
"That's right, the tea I drink is different from yours. I drink Longjing." As he spoke, Song Xinyang handed a video playback device similar to a thick tablet to Joe: "There is something I need you to look at."
Joe didn't take it right away, but kept holding the teacup: "Song, it's time for a break, you're embarrassing me."
Song Xinyang smiled and said, "You won't feel embarrassed after reading it."
The specific model of the plane, where the airspace is, why the maneuver was made, what the weather conditions were at the time, and who was operating the plane, all are unknown.
The secretary whispered: "Reliable, and"
It's not that Tan Linlin and Wu Yue intentionally made things difficult for Xu Cang, but they wanted to intervene out of the mentality of the elders who were afraid of the younger generation's disadvantage, so as to save Xu Cang from the burden of Kingfisher Airlines.
A long time ago, the car brand Rolls-Royce was a sub-brand of Rolls-Royce.However, after the Rolls-Royce bankruptcy incident, Rolls-Royce was spun off and has nothing to do with Rolls-Royce.
"Is there any objection from the General Administration?" Mo Shangyun asked.
The lens of the picture is very stable, chasing the plane directly, always placing the plane in the center of the picture, it can be seen that the level of the photographer is still a little bit.
Song Xinyang's secretary said softly: "The specific time has not been determined, but there is a high probability that it will be completed within this year. The test flight platform is tentatively scheduled to be Boeing 720."
Originally, Joe felt a little dissatisfied with Song Xinyang for interrupting his afternoon tea, but now, this dissatisfaction has long since dissipated, and what is left is only curiosity, seeking knowledge and fun.
Promoting two engine projects at the same time, this is completely the game of rich and powerful local tyrants, how can Luo Luo stop it?
Qiao breathed a sigh of relief: "The world's largest civil aviation market is the European and American markets, followed by the East Asian market. In the European and American markets, it seems that we cannot prevent GM and Pratt & Whitney from harvesting profits, so we can only do it in the East Asian market. article."
However, it was this glance that directly pulled Joe out of the leisurely afternoon tea time.
In Joe's first thought, this video must have been technically processed, because the maneuverability of the 737 in the screen has far exceeded the limit of the model itself, and it has also exceeded Joe's cognition.
"How much money does Pratt & Whitney have for the development of two new engines?" Song Xinyang leaned back on the bench, trying to take a deep breath to calm his inner unrest.
Qiao solemnly said: "It's a pity to waste such a talent all at once. I think we can re-adjust the Trent 1000 to make it more stable, at least not to have too outrageous failures, so as to increase Xu Cang's test flight experience." Survival rate."
Although it didn't take much to bring Kingfisher Airlines into the bag, it can't change the current situation of Kingfisher Airlines' continuous loss.In the past, Kingfisher Airlines was responsible for losing money, but Xu Cang will be responsible for losing money later.
As long as Xu Cang can really develop an engine with sufficient performance, it will be rolled out across the country, which is almost certain, no matter from the attitude of the people or the government.
At this point, Chen Xiangdong didn't intend to say anything more, so he hung up the phone readily.
"That's true." Tan Linlin nodded: "Look at the last few photos. Your apprentice really thought far ahead, not only the application for mergers and acquisitions, but also the application for the entry of foreign aircraft."
Song Xinyang hadn't finished speaking when his cell phone rang suddenly. After checking the number, it was his secretary calling.
Grasping with both hands like this is naturally high risk and high reward.
Chen Xiangdong said bluntly: "Well. Director Wu and Director Tan came to see me just now. They said that you want to buy British Kingfisher Airlines. Is there such a thing?"
As agreed before, Xu Cang will bear the tax.Of course, with British property tax, a lot of tax would be paid just for this gift.However, compared to the overall scale of Kingfisher Airlines, Xu Cang still made a huge profit.
Soon, the phone was connected, and Xu Cang's voice came from the other side: "Master, what's wrong?"
In the circle of low-cost airlines, Kingfisher Airlines is quite well-known, and it is not surprising that Chen Xiangdong knows about it.However, in Chen Xiangdong's impression, the scale of Kingfisher Airlines is still acceptable, only Xu Cang's wealth can eat Kingfisher Airlines.Moreover, is it really necessary to acquire a foreign airline company across the ocean? Don’t worry about management issues. After all, the corporate cultures of the two sides are completely different, and there may be a situation where one plus one is less than two. .
If Xu Cang worked harder and extended the engine to the entire East Asian region, it would be a disaster for the East Asian market of the general-purpose and Pratt & Whitney systems.
Soon, a young man who looked less than 30 years old ran all the way over and handed a document to Song Xinyang, and Qiao who was next to him also leaned over to take a look.
"You run it yourself?"
"I" Song Xinyang's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot: "PW8000, that aero-engine for narrow-body aircraft?"
"What's the matter, it doesn't look right." After such a movement, Chen Xiangdong closed the document, saw the expression of Tan Linlin, the director of the Transportation Department, and frowned: "What happened?"
Without the profit support of the East Asian market, Joe didn't believe that GM and Pratt & Whitney dared to spend money on scientific research unscrupulously.
If GM’s GE90 is limited in its applicable market due to its huge size, then its shrunken version of GENx undoubtedly has a brighter prospect, and it has already produced the most direct competition with Rolls-Royce’s market.Coupled with the future intervention of Pratt & Whitney's PW6000, Rolls-Royce's market space will be further squeezed.
However, Mo Shangyun didn't know about Sir Capet, and Xu Cang would not tell Mo Shangyun everything in detail.
The best thing is that both of them succeed, which will enable Pratt & Whitney to maintain a leading position in the field of narrow-body aircraft and wide-body aircraft for a long time.
"Our market in East Asia is completely inferior to that of the general-purpose department and the general-purpose department. In times of crisis, how can we care about such petty profits?" Joe scolded, and he pointed to a building in the distance: " It used to be the headquarters building of our automobile department, but now it doesn't belong to us anymore. Could it be that we still have to sit and wait to die?"
"Xu Cang, Xu Cang." Qiao muttered softly, repeating Xu Cang's name.Suddenly, he returned the video player to Song Xinyang, and sighed softly: "It's not surprising if it's him. Song, I think it's necessary to postpone the Trent 1000 test."
Chen Xiangdong nodded: "OK!"
That being the case, the bureau wouldn't have ordered the captains of Spring Airlines to set an elimination target because of this, right?
Mo Shangyun, who had been waiting in the car for a while, saw that Xu Cang was late, so he couldn't help but ask, "What's important?"
Chen Xiangdong was taken aback: "What do you mean, he bought a plane?"
Song Xinyang's face was extremely ugly. Just now, he also said that it was fortunate that Puhui didn't make any new moves, so he was slapped in the face in an instant.
Joe clicked the play button, and the main content of the screen seemed to be a canyon. In the airspace in the middle of the canyon, there was actually an airplane operating, which seemed to be a Boeing 737.
Although Tan Linlin said so, in fact, because airline mergers and acquisitions are relatively routine business practices, as long as there are no obvious problems, the bureau will not intervene.
"What to do?" Song Xinyang spread his hands: "Don't say that the Trent 1000 is still there, even if the Trent 1000 comes out now, it's just to ease the situation, and the situation has not changed substantially. General Motors and Pratt & Whitney, I .Take Pratt & Whitney as an example, PW6000 and PW8000 are being developed at the same time, so they are not afraid of overturning?"
Song Xinyang grimaced: "Okay, I understand. But, what is your idea? Just transfer the technology to Xu Cang unconditionally?"
Chen Xiangdong didn't believe it: "Why are you so sure? What's the reason?"
Xu Cang asked in a low voice: "Is there any indicator recently?"
At present, nearly two-thirds of Spring Airlines’ aircraft are ARJ21, and there are not many real trunk airliners, at least compared with Kingfisher Airlines, they are much weaker.
Aircraft is rather special in nature, and it cannot be completely regarded as an item.Especially when importing foreign aircraft, approval from the General Administration is required to pass the customs, otherwise the customs will not pass.
If the Bureau really felt that the incident was serious, it would not have let the Southwest Bureau investigate, and Chunxia Airlines would have handled it by itself, and ended up in person.
Mo Shangyun waved his hand: "It doesn't matter, I'll be fine for a few days at night. By the way, I also answered Mr. Lu's call just now. The three captains we sent for investigation this time all hung up, and we will send two more later." When I went out, it was inspected by the appointed representative of Muhua Aviation Jianchuan Base. Mr. Lu asked me if I knew the appointed representative over there, and asked me to tell them in private, so that I can be more lenient."
Chen Xiangdong thought for a while, then nodded: "I'll give him a call."
Chen Xiangdong knew the surname of Capet, after all, it was a family with a long history, and the British flag.In fact, the Capet family is quite famous not only in the UK, but also in the whole of Europe, with its branches all over Europe.
If both projects are successful, Luo Luo will basically be cornered.
Just now, he flew a round trip from Erhai Lake to Tianning, and he was paired with Mo Shangyun, who happened to be his driver and co-pilot's route check.
Xu Cang put down the flight case, found a vacant seat in the car, and greeted the driver to leave, and then returned to Mo Shangyun: "My master is looking for me. It's nothing serious. It's about Kingfisher Airlines. The General Administration is reviewing."
"Sure enough, saving lives is a great kindness. You are really lucky, kid, and you can meet all of these." Chen Xiangdong honestly didn't know what to say: "So it really didn't cost much, then What about the future? Kingfisher Airlines will lose money later on, and it will be your own money that will be lost.”
The secretary gritted his teeth: "There is still news that has not been confirmed. Pratt & Whitney's PW8000 engine project has already begun to be demonstrated."
The secretary nodded: "That's it."
"Where did you get so much money?" Chen Xiangdong snorted heavily: "Also, do you know that Kingfisher Airlines' financial situation is very bad now? Don't keep thinking about buying things, it's not easy to save some money, and it's not easy Just buy money-losing goods."
Wu Yue raised his hand to stop Chen Xiangdong: "One more thing, ICAO's flight commissioner certificate has been issued, you can ask him whether he will come here by himself or we will send it by mail. Forget it, let him come here by himself, to save money Something went wrong. In addition, their company’s application for reinstating Mo Shangyun’s agency-appointed representative has encountered some minor problems in the document review, which may take a while, so let him take it easy.”
The current research and development of aero-engines costs tens or even tens of billions of dollars. If the project fails, most of the previous investment will be in vain.Therefore, even aero engine giants will only start the development of a new generation of engines after an engine technology is mature.
Chen Xiangdong laughed: "It seems that you are quite considerate of Xu Cang."
"If it's not that Pratt & Whitney's executives are crazy, it's that they have sufficient funds and are confident to bear the losses caused by the project." Qiao said coldly.
In the medium case, if one project succeeds and the other fails, there is a high probability that there will be losses and profits, and there will be no injury.
Song Xinyang quickly understood Qiao's meaning: "You mean to cooperate with Xu Cang and actively give him the core technology of the engine?"
The worst case is that two projects fail at the same time. This is a situation that even Luo Luo dare not think about, but Pratt & Whitney dares to do it.
To be honest, before Luo Luo didn't care much about Xu Cang's life or death, they only wanted the key data parameters of Trent 1000.However, it is different now. Judging from Xu Cang's terrifying strength, Qiao feels that the two sides can cooperate more in the future, instead of pushing Xu Cang into a situation where the Trent 1000 may be consumed at one time.
"What article? East Asia is the fastest growing civil aviation market, but it is also the region with the largest demand for general-purpose and Pratt & Whitney engines. How to make an article?" Song Xinyang asked rhetorically.
"Sino-Japanese route?" Chen Xiangdong was stunned: "Where exactly?"
Chen Xiangdong pondered for a moment: "Since Xu Cang submitted the application, it must have been carefully considered."
"I really don't understand how Pratt & Whitney is so rich." Song Xinyang scolded.
When Xu Cang picked up Chen Xiangdong just now, he had just landed from the flight and was waiting to get in the car and leave.
"It's definitely impossible." Joe lowered his head and pondered, "I'll think again, think again."
For airlines that have experienced unsafe incidents, they will become the focus of attention in the next period of time, and the captain will definitely receive special care during the investigation.
"I'm his master, not his father, and I feel that even his father can't take care of so many things, right?" Chen Xiangdong was replying to Tan Linlin's words while turning in his mind: "Xu Cang has his own ideas, and I also have my own ideas." Can't you interfere in everything?"
Song Xinyang's heart tightened: "Huh? What's the matter, what's the problem?"
"Kingfisher Airlines?" Chen Xiangdong recalled a little: "The low-cost airline?"
Qiao thought for a moment: "It seems that our previous estimate of our situation was too optimistic, and we must do something."
"Oh?" Qiao looked at Song Xinyang in surprise, hesitated, put the teacup aside, and took the video player.
"Holy Fuck!" Joe stood up suddenly, and his exclamation directly alarmed other employees in the surrounding Luoluo headquarters.However, facing the strange eyes cast by his colleagues, Qiao Na didn't care. He just looked at the video player in his hand in astonishment.
"Something happened, but it's not a bad thing." Tan Linlin slapped a stack of documents on Chen Xiangdong's desk: "Your apprentice is really capable of trouble."
On the apron of Erhai Airport, Xu Cang also put down his cell phone.At this moment, he was dragging the flight case, and his eyes fell on the infield car not far away.
As an initial member, Mo Shangyun still has a relatively high status in Spring Airlines, knowing that Xu Cang is about to accept the British Kingfisher Airlines.
"But that can't completely stop the loss."
"All three died?" Hearing this, Xu Cang also found it inconceivable.
"This plane is running with a single engine." Song Xinyang explained from the side.
"PW6000 is going to conduct flight tests?" Joe couldn't help but lose color after seeing the contents of the document.
"Is the news reliable?" Song Xinyang asked solemnly.
This situation is more likely to occur when purchasing or leasing foreign aircraft.
Accompanied by Song Xinyang's sudden drink, Qiao suddenly discovered that the 737 airliner in the picture had completed an operation almost hovering and turning in the air with an incredible maneuver.
Regardless, the loss of the auto division is on the minds of every Rollo.Now it seems that we have reached a certain historical decision-making point, and it is time for Luo Luo to make a choice.
"One of the big problems of Kingfisher Airlines is excess capacity and low aircraft utilization rate. Our spring and summer airlines are just in the rising period, and the capacity is not enough. Internal adjustments can reduce a large part of the cost."
Originally, Chen Xiangdong wanted to make a phone call in the office.As a result, being stared at by Tan Linlin and Wu Yue, Chen Xiangdong felt very uncomfortable, so he found an excuse and went out to make a phone call.
"Fly from Rongfu to Tokyo, from Shanghai to Tokyo, from Yangcheng to Tokyo, etc."
Originally, Chen Xiangdong understood everything, but when he heard about the gift, Chen Xiangdong became vigilant all of a sudden: "It's true, it's fake, just give it to an airline company, who is so bold?"
Tan Linlin rolled her eyes: "If you only count mainline airliners, the fleet size of Kingfisher Airlines is more than twice that of Spring Airlines.
"Bullshit! Can this be based on feeling?" Chen Xiangdong scolded, but he still didn't continue to struggle, he could hear that Xu Cang had made up his mind: "Forget it, I can't help it if you really make a decision. , you think more than I do. The Department of Transportation and the Department of Flying Standards will agree to your application."
Once an engine has completed the flight test, it means that it is not far from commercial use.Even if it is not yet fully commercialized, some aircraft manufacturers will begin to identify it as their own power system in advance.
"Yup!"
So, in order to dispel Chen Xiangdong's doubts, Xu Cang told all about Sir Capet.Hearing that, Chen Xiangdong was taken aback for a while.
"No, Master didn't mention it to me." Xu Cang agreed with Mo Shangyun, and this matter should have nothing to do with the bureau: "Is it the problem of the three captains who sent it over?"
Just like donating a house to others, you also need to pay taxes, even if Sir Capet donated Kingfisher Aviation to Xu Cang, you still need to pay taxes.
Joe just read the beginning, didn't think there was anything unusual, so he said, "Song, what do you want me to see? A plane flying through the canyon, what's the point?"
"It's something." Song Xinyang's expression was still calm, but based on his understanding of his secretary, the tone of the call just now seemed not so optimistic.
Chen Xiangdong is the second-in-command of the General Administration, and if it's true, Chen Xiangdong should also know about it.Give Xu Cang some breath, and it won't be too difficult to think about it.
And these two words directly made Song Xinyang's eyelids twitch wildly: "Is there anything else?"
"Impossible, how can the 737 hover and turn, only the vector engine can complete such a maneuver." Qiao raised his head and looked directly at Song Xinyang: "You show me such a ridiculous thing, what's the point?"
Just like Rolls-Royce, although the Trent 900 has not yet been fully commercialized, it is almost ready and mature enough.After that, work on the Trent 1000 began.
"However, we also have market interests in East Asia, isn't that not good for us?" Song Xinyang wondered.
Song Xinyang held his breath, waited for a while, and suddenly shouted: "Look!"
If any serious safety accident happens during this period, the investigation will definitely be stricter.Or in some special period, the higher-ups will order it down, and even deliberately arrange a elimination rate, and it is rigid.
"Buy an airplane, what kind of airplane to buy, he is an internal adjustment." Tan Linlin snorted: "After Kingfisher Airlines under him, he plans to transfer ten 737s of Kingfisher Airlines into the country, tsk tsk tsk, the application for mergers and acquisitions will follow the entry into the customs Submitting the application together, he really has nothing to fear."
Wu Yue said with a smile: "We didn't come here to ask questions. It is a good attempt for a domestic airline company to acquire a large-scale foreign airline company. However, we checked the situation of Kingfisher Airlines. Kingfisher Airlines was indeed very good before. It is developing very fast, but it is in a financial crisis recently, and the situation is not good. If Xu Cang wants to accept Kingfisher Airlines, I am worried that it will become a burden on him instead.”
Now the world's three major aero engine giants, General Motors and Pratt & Whitney, have launched their own new generation of aero engines. In contrast, Rolls-Royce's Trent 900 seems not enough, even for Airbus, which is also a European company. , and did not use the Trent 900 as the only power option for the A380.
Checking this kind of thing is related to many factors.Technology is definitely one aspect, and it must also be combined with the external environment at that time.
Xu Cang heard what Mo Shangyun said: "A question about the inspector? Then teacher, do you want to meet the inspector?"
The situation is pretty bad!
Just like the LEAP engine, the power core of the new generation of narrow-body aircraft of Boeing and Airbus, before the LEAP engine has completely completed the research and development process, Boeing and Airbus have already determined the choice of the LEAP engine, which is the reason.
Speaking of this, Xu Cang suddenly remembered something: "Master, if I want to open a China-Japan air route, is it easy?"
Wu Yue, director of the flying standard department, said helplessly: "Old Chen, your apprentice is going to take over the British Kingfisher Airlines, don't you know?"
Song Xinyang shook his head: "I also hope that this is just a fake video, but the fact is that this video is very likely to be true. I managed to get this, and it is kept confidential over there and cannot be leaked casually. "
Of course, usually the person who hired the captain must have two brushes.Even if it is more difficult to check the appointed representatives of other companies, it will not be annihilated.
Generally speaking, there will be a certain percentage of captains and above on a regular basis to be inspected by appointed representatives of other companies.If the inspection fails, the qualification of the captain will be suspended directly and downgraded to a senior co-pilot.
Xu Cang smiled and said, "It's okay, there's no rush."
After hanging up the phone, Joe brought back the teacup that he had put down before: "Why, what's the matter?"
Mo Shangyun shook his head: "I still don't understand this matter. Didn't your master give you some breath?"
Song Xinyang asked Qiao to study for a while, and after waiting for about 5 minutes, Song Xinyang said: "It is reported that the person on the plane is Xu Cang."
"Yes. Although I don't know what the purpose is, but from the information fed back from there, there is a high probability that it is him."
Knowing that Chen Xiangdong was concerned about him, Xu Cang's heart warmed, and he patiently explained: "Master, Kingfisher Airlines is only in a temporary crisis now, and it will definitely turn around in the future. I don't call it buying money-losing goods, it's called bargain hunting. And Strictly speaking, I didn’t buy Kingfisher Airlines, but accepted gifts from others, and someone gave Kingfisher Airlines to me directly. I only need to pay part of the property tax, and the investment is not as big as I imagined.”
But Pratt & Whitney is obviously not like this. One hand is PW6000, the other hand is PW8000, and both hands are grasped at the same time, so there is no need to worry about the breakage of funds.
"No, I will agree." Xu Cang said: "However, teacher, there is a small problem with the restoration of your appointed representative. You may need to wait a little longer, but the problem should not be serious."
"Didn't I tell you before? It's too difficult to rely on us to fight against GM and Pratt & Whitney. We must support a spoiler. Now I am more and more sure that the spoiler must be in East Asia." Joe affirmed: "Yes , the East Asian civil aviation market still favors general-purpose and Pratt & Whitney engines. However, as an emerging country, I don’t believe they will turn a blind eye to self-developed engines. If there is a self-produced aero engine with excellent performance, the local government will definitely Policy intervention will be carried out to artificially promote this engine, thereby squeezing out the market share of general-purpose and Pratt & Whitney engines.”
"Okay, I remember."
"However, the board of directors can't wait. GM's GE90 puts too much pressure on us, and the prospect of GENx is also quite good. We stumbled on the A380, and the disadvantages are already very large. Pratt & Whitney still has no new news, if"
"Also, ICAO's flight commissioner's certificate has come down, you can come here to get it, it's safer." Chen Xiangdong said: "Also, there are some problems with the recovery of the agency-appointed representative of your company. Just take a little longer, just wait."
However, even if it belongs to the Capet family, it would be outrageous to send an airline directly.
Joe slowly sat back on the bench, adjusted the video to 0.5 times the speed and slowed it down, savoring it carefully.
Qiao had been immersing himself in the study of the video, but when he heard Song Xinyang's words, he froze and turned his head: "Xu Cang?"
The captain's investigation is often divided into his own company and other companies.A large part of the reason for this system is to prevent the inspection of the same company from being released due to favors or other reasons.
That's the safe way to proceed.
"What?" Chen Xiangdong didn't understand, so his eyes fell on the document given by Tan Linlin, he just glanced at it briefly, and immediately raised his eyebrows: "Application for overseas mergers and acquisitions?"
However, too little information is known now.No matter how powerful Joe is, he still can't completely imagine the situation at that time.However, for the "hover" operation of the airliner, this picture alone is enough to make Joe feel mesmerized.
Without thinking too much, Song Xinyang connected the phone first.
Wu Yue suggested: "Old Chen, why don't you ask Xu Cang. Explain the matter to him clearly. If this is the result of his thinking, then we will naturally agree. If not, please persuade him, so as not to regret later .”
"General-purpose GENx, Pratt & Whitney's PW6000, damn it!" Song Xinyang's face sank like water. Originally, they only had to consider the impact of the general-purpose GENx, but now that Pratt & Whitney's PW6000 is about to undergo flight tests, they must also take it into consideration. bingo.
"Do we need to intervene?" Tan Linlin asked: "Domestic airlines need our consent to acquire foreign airlines, and we have the right to stop it."
"If this video is real, the way of thinking of the person who completed this maneuver is simply unconstrained. This is no longer something that can be accomplished solely by technology, and must rely on other external factors. It is impossible for the 737 to have such a maneuver, at least in the Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to completely rely on yourself." Joe rewound the progress bar of the video, and then paused: "Look, how far the nose of this plane has been raised, it has obviously exceeded the stall angle of attack but the plane hasn't stalled yet. Interesting, interesting, how on earth did he do it?"
"No." Mo Shangyun immediately retorted: "I know the three captains. I did the job inspections when they came over, and I have flown together a few times later. There is absolutely no problem with their skills. You To say that one of them didn't play by chance, I can understand, and it didn't happen to all three, it's so abnormal."
"Single shot? That's reasonable. It's not because I don't want to overcome obstacles, but because I don't have the ability to overcome obstacles." Qiao suddenly realized: "However, it doesn't make any sense, does it?"
Chen Xiangdong thought for a while, and was a little embarrassed: "I'm afraid this matter is not easy to handle. The number of China-Japan routes is negotiated between us and JCAB, and how to allocate them is relatively strict. Moreover, I don't care about this aspect. Things, so I don’t know much about it. When you come to get the commissioner’s certificate, stop by and ask the Department of Transportation and the Department of International Affairs, they are in charge.”
"Could it be that our company ran out of the runway not long ago?" Xu Cang asked strangely.
"Yeah, haven't I handed in all my applications?"
Chen Xiangdong said with a smile: "You really want to finish the matter at once."
"Well, I'm on the side of the bench in the square, why don't you come over here."
Xu Cang said: "There is no way to do this. But Master, I said that the loss of Kingfisher Airlines is only temporary, and it will recover on its own later."
In the Hanjing Civil Aviation Administration Building, Chen Xiangdong was looking through documents in his office. Suddenly, the door of his office was pushed open, and the directors of the Transportation Department and the Flight Standards Department came together, with weird expressions on their faces.
"This..." Joe calmed down and calmed down quickly, but the horror in his heart never diminished in the slightest: "The first engine test of PW6000 was more than a year ago. How long ago is the flight test going? At this speed"
However, the bureau just asked Spring Airlines to handle the matter of Binjiang Airport running off the runway, and then report the result.This is almost an attitude of not expanding the event.
In this day and age, portable tablets have not yet appeared, so this video player is slightly bloated.However, lightweight tablets will soon be available as well.
This time, Xu Cang stopped asking: "This... I can't say, feeling?"
Qiao glanced at Song Xinyang, and then looked at the picture on the video.Unfortunately, after the plane turned its nose and flew back for a while, the content after that was gone.
"I'm not familiar with him, so it's strange to make a special phone call, by the way."
Although Mo Shangyun didn't like this kind of thing, there was nothing he could do in society.Spring and Summer Airlines is not big, and it can withstand three captains. If it continues to hang up, it will be a big trouble.
"Well, I'll look for that person later, I know him. Find out if our captain's skills are not good enough, or for some other reason."
"Other reasons, what do you mean?" Xu Cang was startled when he heard that.
Mo Shangyun narrowed his eyes: "Boss Lu told me something just now. Apart from the investigation by the captain, the left seat co-pilot we sent to him for questioning has never been done. It's too abnormal. I feel like we are being targeted. "
