Return to 2000: Captain of the Great Powers

On a bench in the central square of a certain CBD in Hanjing City, Huang Jing, the head of Boeing Asia Pacific, was drinking coffee leisurely, and beside him, Xiao Lingyun squinted his eyes and looked around, showing a trace of nostalgia in his eyes.

As Huang Jing drank his last sip of coffee, he threw the coffee cup into the trash can beside him, and leaned back on the chair: "Mr. Xu asked you to bring any new news?"

"During the Boeing 777's Daocheng test flight, Xu Cang once made a bet with you. I wonder if you still remember?" Xiao Lingyun smiled.

Huang Jing's expression froze: "I know, Mr. Xu wants to use [-] million to short Airbus."

"At that time, the person in charge of your test flight said that due to the influence of the two forces, after the test flight of the Boeing 777, Spring Airlines would not provide any aircraft sales, leasing or aircraft-related technical support." Xiao Lingyun said: "You really are Keep your word. But, who knows what happened in 1566 later?"

Huang Jing sighed: "So, I have always believed that Mr. Xu Cang's destiny lies with him."

"Xu Cang wants to know, which two companies persuaded Boeing to sanction Spring and Summer Airlines?" Halfway through the speech, Xiao Lingyun didn't even raise his eyelids when he saw Huang Jing, knowing that Huang Jing had no possibility of speaking, so he simply It was a showdown: "Actually, you can guess without mentioning Xu Cang. GM and Lockheed Martin, right?"

It seemed that Huang Jing was not surprised that Xu Cang guessed all of this. He didn't admit it or deny it, but just said: "Since you already have your own ideas, why do you still come to ask me?"

"It's okay to ask casually." Xiao Lingyun waved his hand, as if the question just now was really a random one.

Seeing that Xiao Lingyun was really chatting, Huang Jing couldn't help frowning: "Is this the reason you came here this time? Was it Mr. Xu's order? It shouldn't be, isn't it meaningless?"

To be honest, in Huang Jing's heart, Xu Cang was always so wise, strategizing and controlling everything.Everything he said and everything he did had a reason and a calculation.

As Xu Cang's spokesperson, what Xiao Lingyun said so far does not seem to have any substantive information, which does not match his cognition of Xu Cang.Or is this meeting just Xiao Lingyun's personal decision?

However, he has no personal relationship with Xiao Lingyun, and without Xu Cang as a connection, he can't even find a reason to say a word to Xiao Lingyun.Just now I learned that Xu Cang sent someone to look for him. When he came, he deliberately calculated in his mind, thinking about what the possible topics were and how he should deal with them.

As a result, after thinking so much along the way, when it was time to meet Xiao Lingyun, I felt that it was useless at all.

If the quality of the conversation is limited to this, then Huang Jing feels that there is no need to continue.After all, he wasn't really free enough to waste time on a boring topic.

Xiao Lingyun looked very relaxed. Hearing Huang Jing's words, he had already noticed the impatience in Huang Jing's words, and felt that it was time to get to the point. He leisurely raised two fingers: "This time Xu Cang asked me to come, mainly It's for two things."

Hearing this, Huang Jing, your body tensed up a little, now you are going to get to the point.

"You said."

Looking at the dense crowd of people in the central square, Xiao Lingyun said softly: "We will mortgage some of the genuine authorizations of aviation materials that Boeing gave us before in exchange for a certain amount of funds."

Huang Jing was sure that he had thought a lot on the way here just now, maybe Xu Cang wanted to seek cooperation with Boeing.Of course, the content of the cooperation is relatively broad, but it will basically revolve around the plane.

In any case, Xu Cang's Spring Airlines is in the development stage now, and there is a great demand for aircraft, and Spring Airlines is mainly based on 737s, so Xu Cang doesn't have many choices.

Going around and around, as long as Xu Cang wants to develop his civil aviation transportation, he will always have to avoid Boeing.Once this is the case, then Boeing will have a lot of opportunities to take hold of Xu Cang.

But the actual development is not the so-called cooperation with Boeing at all. It mentioned the matter of mortgaging the genuine authorization of Boeing's aviation materials, which suddenly disrupted Huang Jing's rhythm.

"Wait a minute, wait a moment." Obviously, Xiao Lingyun's words completely made Huang Jing feel speechless: "If the news I got is correct, you have established a company based on the genuine authorization of some aviation materials we gave Aviation material company. Isn’t this a signal to operate well? Why do you want to mortgage that suddenly? If there is a problem with your aviation material authorization, isn’t your aviation material company just an empty shell?”

The foundation of the aviation materials company established by Xu Cang is the genuine authorization of aviation materials from Boeing.If there is a problem with the genuine authorization of this aviation material, Xu Cang's aviation material company will be completely established and then closed down. Is this acceptable to Xu Cang?

"Besides, the genuine authorization of those aviation materials is a very high-quality asset, so you just mortgaged it?" Huang Jing asked incredulously, completely unable to understand Xu Cang's actions.

Xiao Lingyun smiled and said, "It's not a high-quality property, so you can't mortgage that much money."

"You guys." Huang Jing finally heard some information: "Are you raising funds?"

Only when raising funds will he mortgage assets in order to get more cash for turnover, but no matter from which angle, Huang Jing doesn't think Xu Cang is this adventurous.

Of course, it's not that there's anything wrong with this. Some people like to do this when it comes to asset management, but Xu Cang is obviously inclined to be prudent.Moreover, now that Xu Cang's career is booming, there is no reason to take the lead.

However, Xiao Lingyun did not directly answer his question, but just lowered his eyes slightly: "After you gave us the genuine authorization of the aviation materials, we have fulfilled our obligation to inform you about the subsequent transfer."

The genuine authorization of aviation materials is a special product, and it is not bought by me, so it is completely mine.When Xu Cang signed the transfer agreement with Boeing, it stated that Boeing must be notified of the second transfer.

Although it was only a mortgage this time, there was a potential transfer possibility after all. Xu Cang followed the agreement and informed Boeing in advance.

Huang Jing opened his mouth. Hearing what Xiao Lingyun said, he could be sure that Xu Cang had really made up his mind, and he really just came to inform them.

Huang Jing hadn't cleared his mind yet, so Xiao Lingyun continued: "The other thing is what I said at the beginning, Xu Cang plans to use [-] million to sell Airbus."

Huang Jing's eyelids twitched, he felt that he couldn't keep up with Xiao Lingyun's thinking at all, or more precisely, it should be Xu Cang's thinking: "What do you mean?"

Xiao Lingyun chuckled and said, "Based on your news channels, you should know that the first batch of A380 components have already arrived at the assembly hall of Airbus headquarters in Toulouse, right?"

The industrial essence of the A380 is not only manufactured in one country, its components are distributed in France, the United Kingdom, Germany, Spain and other countries.Each country is responsible for a part of the components, which are finally sent to Airbus headquarters in Toulouse for final assembly.

Due to the record-breaking size of the A380, even just parts are too large for traditional transportation methods.Even some parts need to use A300-600ST Beluga transport aircraft.

This transport plane is a transport plane with extremely weird shape. It is a model specially made by Airbus for transportation. It looks like a white whale, and its nickname is also the white whale.

Boeing does not know the specific progress details of the A380, but it is still known that the parts are concentrated in the assembly hall of Toulouse, France.However, according to Airbus's project plan for launching the A380, at this point in time, it is almost time to enter the final assembly of the first batch of A380, and there is nothing strange about it.

"Is there something wrong with this?" Huang Jing asked carefully.

If it were someone else, Huang Jing might feel impatient. Is it necessary to mention this kind of boring information?However, if it was Xu Cang's instruction, Huang Jing instinctively did not dare to make a rash decision, but first thought about whether he wanted to miss something.

In fact, Huang Jing really wanted to miss it.

"This is a signal." Xiao Lingyun smiled.

Huang Jing's eyelids twitched: "What signal."

"A signal to start action." Xiao Lingyun said: "Xu Cang seems to think that [-] million is too little to harvest Airbus."

Now Huang Jing understood it, and blurted out: "So he wants to raise funds, even if he mortgages the original authorization of aviation materials?"

"This is just one of them." Xiao Lingyun said lightly: "Xu Cang's harvest of Airbus this time will exceed your imagination."

"How much is he going to raise?"

Xiao Lingyun laughed: "There is nothing to comment on that. However, as the rival of Airbus, you should be interested in what happened to Airbus, right? Xu Cang said that he will give you a sample, and you can Decide whether to act or not after something happens. However, once something happens, you lose the opportunity to profit from it, at least the chance to get the most benefit. The only thing you can get is to suppress Airbus. Of course, with your From a standpoint, it should be desirable to be able to suppress Airbus, right?"

Huang Jing fell into silence all of a sudden, he probably could hear what Xiao Lingyun meant.

"What is the opportunity to short Airbus? In recent years, the performance of Airbus has been rising steadily, which is very difficult to short. Moreover, it is not that I look down on Mr. Xu Cang's ability, even if we are unable to short Airbus , This is too difficult, how could Mr. Xu Cang complete it by himself?"

A lot of prerequisites for stocks that can be shorted are that the stock itself is unstable, just like the attic or sky.To be short is to push to this weak foundation building at the minimum cost, and seek benefits in the value change.

But if the foundation of this building is solid, no matter how hard you push it, it will not fall down, and the effort put in will be in vain.And Airbus is that immovable building. The price of shorting Airbus is too high, and the gain outweighs the loss.

"Perhaps, Mr. Xu is wrong, he is watching too much?" Huang Jing asked in a low voice.

However, such low-level mistakes should not happen to Xu Cang.

The performance of Airbus in the past ten years has been rising steadily, step by step, and there is basically no possibility of external short selling.On the contrary, with the release of the A380 plan, the international market is very optimistic about this super-large airliner, and it is more reasonable for Airbus' stock price to rise.

"The A380 has been held for so long, and the atmosphere has arrived. Airbus' stock price has reached a stage high. The marginal effect of pushing up their stock price is too high, and it is unnecessary."

Whether it is long or short, it is to use the huge stock price fluctuations in a short period of time to obtain benefits.Just like what Xiao Lingyun said, now is the highest point of Airbus' stock price in recent years, which is the result of the long-term market optimism for A380.If such a high stock price is smashed down, the short sellers can get a lot of benefits.

But we still have to go back to the key question - why!Why is Airbus' stock price plummeting for no reason?
Not to mention the sharp drop, when the first A380 is delivered, there will definitely be a big upsurge, and the stock price will probably rise even more.

However, Xiao Lingyun just smiled and said: "It's okay, you don't need to participate. Just let us remind you, remember to step on the Airbus when the time comes."

Xiao Lingyun roughly sketched out a picture in his words, and he summed it up a bit: "It means that Xu Cang thinks that Airbus's stock price will plummet in a certain period in the future. We don't need to follow, and of course we won't just Such an unreasonable move because of a certain idea of ​​Mr. Xu. However, if the overall situation is settled, do you want us to step on Airbus again so that you can gain greater benefits?"

"Don't make it so utilitarian." Xiao Lingyun corrected: "Could it be that you are only doing it for us? To be precise, it's because you stepped on Airbus, and we just gained some benefits along the way. Mutual benefit and win-win."

That is, as Huang Jing said, it is quite unreasonable to short Airbus at this point in time.Boeing will never invest money to keep up just because of Xu Cang's idea.

Or, to be precise, no sane person would do it.That is to say, Xu Cang was doing this, otherwise Huang Jing would really feel that the person who planned this matter was a psychopath.

However, not being on the front line with Xu Cang does not mean that Boeing can only be a spectator.

Now that Airbus is a strong man, Boeing will naturally not provoke it.However, if things really develop as Xu Cang said, and Airbus suddenly turns from a strong man into a sick man, then Boeing will step on it with peace of mind and no scruples.

However, the moment when the stock price plummets is generally missed when the overall situation has been determined, so it will be too late for Boeing to follow up, and you can only drink some soup.For a giant company like Boeing, such a small amount of money is naturally despised.

However, just because Boing doesn't like it doesn't mean that Xu Cang doesn't like it.If you can step on another wave of Airbus with the help of Boeing in the later stage, you can make more money anyway.

As Xiao Lingyun said, Boeing has no risk in this kind of thing, and it can also hit a wave of competitors. Xu Cang made more profits by the way.

Under these words, Huang Jing didn't answer immediately.He can't make a decision on this kind of thing alone.However, according to his personal opinion, Boeing headquarters should not reject such a lucrative thing.

Xu Cang took all the risks by himself, and Boe just stepped on and spit, no matter what, he would not get burned, it was really comfortable.

"Mr. Xu Cang's meaning, I will pass it on to the headquarters." Huang Jing was very cautious and did not make any statement: "However, I would like to ask, who do you mortgage our aviation materials for authorization? The bank?"

"No, no, how can the bank understand the huge economic value of this authorization of aviation materials?" Xiao Lingyun did not hide it: "Isn't there still an aviation materials company in China? This kind of peers can better understand the value of this authorization, and mortgage it to them Isn't it better?"

"Another aviation material company?" Huang Jing was taken aback for a moment: "Is it Tianrong Aviation Material?"

The boss of this Tianrong Aviation Material is Luo Tianrong, who is notorious in the domestic civil aviation industry. He was a "comprador" who worked hard to promote CFM's engines at the engine seminar of the General Administration.

Xiao Lingyun nodded: "Isn't this just right? A small part of your Boeing authorization is given to them. The two parties happen to have a cooperative relationship. Is it a good thing for you to let us mortgage it to them?"

Regarding this, Huang Jing nodded: "That's right. However, I really want to know how much money Xu Cang plans to prepare."

Xiao Lingyun definitely couldn't say it, but it involved commercial secrets, so he just said a vague word: "The more the better."

Huang Jing was speechless, it was no different from saying nothing.However, he just asked casually and didn't care that much.Anyway, from the conversation here, it can be known that Xu Cang is going to attack Airbus, which is very important information.

However, just when Huang Jing wanted to terminate the conversation between the two, a man's voice suddenly came from behind the two of them: "If the more the better, how about letting me invest money?"

Xiao Lingyun and Huang Jing turned behind at the same time, only to see Li Rongcheng who hadn't shown up for a long time coming slowly.

Compared with before, Li Rongcheng at this moment looks a bit vicissitudes, but his steps are steady and his temperament is deeper.

Huang Jing naturally knew Li Rongcheng, but Xiao Lingyun couldn't recognize him.

Li Rongcheng walked in front of Xiao Lingyun, and instead of sitting down, he stretched out his hand and said hello: "Hello, Li Rongcheng!"

"Li Rongcheng?" Xiao Lingyun didn't know Li Rongcheng's appearance, but he had heard the name before. Then he stood up, stretched out his right hand, and shook Li Rongcheng's hand: "I heard Xu Cang mentioned you."

Li Rongcheng only had a faint smile on his face: "Is it a good word?"

"He said you were his friend. Is that a good thing?"

"That's true." Li Rongcheng paused for a moment: "I have a total of 3000 million US dollars here. I wonder if I can invest in it?"

"3000?"

Li Rongcheng nodded: "I still have some real estate in the United States. If you give me time, I can add more than 1000 million US dollars. This is all my property."

"In this part, there is a lot of severance pay from the headquarters. You really don't want to keep a cent." Huang Jing also stood up.

Li Rongcheng did not resign from Boeing voluntarily, but Boeing forcibly fired him.In the United States, this situation requires additional severance pay, and Li Rongcheng's rank is not low, and the severance pay is more than 1000 million US dollars.

Huang Jing is now the person in charge of the Asia-Pacific region. If Li Rongcheng has no gray income, the current 5000 million US dollars is basically all his assets. This should not be faked.

The person in charge of the Asia-Pacific region is not high-level among Boeing executives, otherwise he would not have such a small fortune.

Of course, compared to ordinary people, in 2000, this was already an astronomical figure.

"Keep what?" Li Rongcheng didn't have any resentment towards Huang Jing, his successor, and his words were very flat: "Since Xu Cang is so determined, he must be able to get a sufficient return. I will keep 200 million, That's enough for the rest of my life."

Li Rongcheng's material level is not high, and 200 million US dollars is enough for him to live a comfortable life for half his life after returning to China.

Huang Jing's mouth moved, knowing that Li Rongcheng couldn't be persuaded, he could only sigh: "It's up to you."

Li Rongcheng is Xu Cang's recognized friend, that is his own.To Li Rongcheng, Xiao Lingyun's attitude is different.He nodded slightly towards Huang Jing: "I've finished talking, then I won't bother you."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Lingyun turned directly to Li Rongcheng: "Is it convenient to talk about it alone?"

Li Rongcheng is now alone, so naturally he will not refuse, pointing to the small park opposite the square: "Let's talk while walking."

So, under Huang Jing's somewhat strange eyes, Xiao Lingyun and Li Rongcheng stood side by side and gradually moved away.

After walking a long enough distance, Xiao Lingyun spoke first: "I heard from Xu Cang that you used to be the person in charge of Boeing's Asia-Pacific region? But you were fired by Boeing later on. Xu Cang also looked for you, but you never answered the phone. .Actually, with your previous management level, Boeing shouldn’t have dismissed you casually.”

"They suspected that I got too close to Xu Cang and revealed a lot of company secrets to Xu Cang."

Xiao Lingyun laughed: "Then is this the real situation?"

"Half and half. I am indeed closer to Xu Cang. Xu Cang has a unique personality charm that can attract people around him to approach him. However, it is nonsense to say that I revealed company secrets to Xu Cang Talk. Actually, there is one thing that I don’t understand until now. Xu Cang seems to know Boeing better than me. Xu Cang seems to know Boeing very well. This kind of understanding has exceeded the level that ordinary people should have. After the company noticed this abnormality, It just so happened that I got very close to Xu Cang again, and it was normal to suspect me. But it doesn’t matter, I couldn’t make up my mind to come back, so it’s just right.”

"I also feel deeply about what you said." Xiao Lingyun nodded: "To be honest, I don't know where Xu Cang knows so many things. It seems that there is nothing in this world that he doesn't know .”

Li Rongcheng looked around and confirmed that there was no one around, and asked in a low voice, "When will you spend the money? If I deal with American real estate, it will take about two months. Will it be too long?"

"Well, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up in two months." When facing Li Rongcheng, Xiao Lingyun's tone was completely different from Huang Jing's: "However, you don't have to worry, you can participate in the second time."

"Second time, what second time?" Li Rongcheng was puzzled.

There was a little light in Xiao Lingyun's eyes: "Do you think Xu Cang worked so hard to raise so much money just for a wave of harvest? For Airbus, Xu Cang doesn't plan to just wave the scythe once."

Li Rongcheng was a little unbelievable: "You mean Xu Cang plans to harvest Airbus twice?"

"That's right!" Xiao Lingyun said with a smile: "The A380 project has many problems, and it can fully support the two harvests of Airbus."

Li Rongcheng was silent for a while: "If that's the case, wouldn't the Boeing family dominate in the future?"

However, Xiao Lingyun shook his head: "No! After Airbus is harvested, Boeing will be next, and neither of these two companies will be able to escape. The financial operations of these two companies will accumulate huge funds for us. From my perspective Since I followed Xu Cang, although I have maintained a high rate of return on investment, the absolute value of capital growth is not particularly fast because the principal is not too much. Xu Cang wants to do many things, and Spring and Summer Airlines It is still in the rising period, and the money earned needs to be invested in the next round of development investment, and it is impossible to give blood to Xu Cang. Therefore, for the things to be done in the future, harvesting Boeing and Airbus is the best choice. It will blow the future competitors, and can quickly accumulate funds, the best of both worlds.”

"However, Boeing is very vigilant. For example, didn't they follow up this time?"

"It's normal for them not to follow. However, this is what Xu Cang wants to see. Boing's size is too large, and it is too easy to attract the attention of others. If Boing gets involved, it is very likely that we will take away what we should have." Benefits. In any case, at least Boeing cannot participate in the first harvest of Airbus. According to Xu Cang, there will actually be a third harvest of Airbus in the future, and the third harvest Instead, Boeing's participation is needed, and that time is the harvest of Boeing at the same time."

These words sounded a bit convoluted, but Li Rongcheng understood: "Didn't Xu Cang say that the A380 project can only support the two harvests of Airbus? Where did the third come from?"

Now Xiao Lingyun shook his head, expressing his ignorance: "This is beyond what I can guess. Xu Cang's every step is too forward-looking, but he can't explain it too clearly. I can probably understand his reaping. The basic operating logic of Boeing and Airbus, but in terms of specific actions, I actually have no way of knowing."

However, compared to Xiao Lingyun, Li Rongcheng's vision is higher, and from these few short sentences, he seems to figure out something: "I feel that one of Xu Cang's previous two harvests on Airbus The function is to show Boeing. Since Xu Cang said that the third harvest of Airbus is carried out at the same time as the harvest of Boeing, that is to say, in the future, Boeing itself will not actually have a huge flaw , it is necessary to bring Boeing into the game to implement the plan. Boeing is very cautious, and only through the first two successful harvesting operations of Xu Cang on Airbus can Boeing dispel doubts and follow up with Xu Cang. As long as Boeing follows up, Xu Cang Cang has room to operate."

Xiao Lingyun couldn't help being amazed when he heard Li Rongcheng's analysis.As expected of a former Boeing executive, his vision and response are top-notch.However, upon hearing it this way, Xiao Lingyun could really feel Xu Cang's interlocking plans, as if he wanted to play the two giants of Boeing and Airbus in the palm of his hand.

It has to be said that Xu Cang is as wise as a demon.

"However, as you said just now, the A380 can only allow Xu Cang to harvest Airbus twice. No matter how stupid Airbus is, it is impossible to fall into the same pit three times. Then, the third opportunity to harvest Boeing and Airbus at the same time What is it?" Li Rongcheng thought for a long time, but still couldn't figure it out.

Most of the models in Airbus are now quite stable, and it is unlikely that there will be a possibility of a mine explosion.And it is impossible for the A380 of the new project to be caught all the time, so what else can be Xu Cang's handle?

After thinking for a while, Li Rongcheng still couldn't figure it out, so he simply stopped thinking about it.Don't say that now Xiao Lingyun only roughly explained Xu Cang's arrangement to him, even if he talked about it carefully, Li Rongcheng thought he couldn't fully understand Xu Cang's plan.

In fact, the problem has returned to the beginning, that is, how to complete the first harvest of Airbus, that is, how to make Airbus?
Without a beginning, the subsequent series of plans are just empty talk.

Like Huang Jing before him, Li Rongcheng couldn't figure out how Xu Cang broke through the iron wall of Airbus.

Li Rongcheng hesitated for a while, but still asked: "Did Xu Cang mention how to make Airbus? I feel that this is simply impossible."

However, Xiao Lingyun shook his head: "We don't need to be an Airbus."

Now Li Rongcheng was stunned: "What do you mean, didn't you just say it?"

"I mean we don't need to take action." Xiao Lingyun smiled and said: "The Airbus will explode by itself."

In the office of the chairman of Air China, Yue Sheng saw Yi Feng whom he hadn't seen for a long time.However, this time Yi Feng is no longer the heir in his mind, but the spokesperson sent by Xu Cang.

Yue Sheng looked at a mortgage document on the table, and couldn't help frowning: "You mortgaged the Hanjing-Yangcheng route, and borrowed [-] million yuan? Yi Feng, do you think I'm too old to know how to count?" ? The Hanking-Yangcheng route is indeed quite profitable, but at a price of [-] million, you just let me take advantage of it?"

That's right, the document mentioned by Yue Sheng was prepared by Xu Cang for Yue Sheng. He wanted to borrow [-] million from Guoda Airlines with the Hanking-Yangcheng flight as collateral.However, even for the top route Hanking-Yangcheng, the transfer fee is too high.

Yue Sheng is not the kind of manager who just sits in the office, he clearly guides the basic transfer price of this type of route.He could allow Xu Cang to increase the price appropriately, but he couldn't allow himself to be treated as a fool, especially if he had to let Yi Feng come over to carry out this process.

However, Yi Feng replied flatly: "Not only that, we will be responsible for the guarantee of all aircraft and personnel of National Airline in the UK in the future, which is another large sum of money, which adds up to the Hanjing-Yangcheng route. , I don’t think one hundred million is too much.”

Having said that, Yue Sheng was indeed a little moved.National Airlines has opened some international routes in the UK.In view of the extremely long rest period of flying across time zones on international routes, the crew used to rest for more than 72 hours at a time, and the consumption in the UK was already high, including various airport miscellaneous fees.Calculated in this way, the number is actually not small.

If Spring and Summer Airlines will be responsible for our own guarantee in the UK in the future, the cost savings will be astonishing over time.Moreover, as long as the Hanking-Yangcheng route runs long enough, the transfer fee can actually be recovered.

To put it simply, if the price of [-] million seems outrageous, as long as National Airline can operate the UK route and the Hanking-Yangcheng route stably for seven to eight years, it can completely recover the cost of [-] million.

The profit after that is pure profit.

However, Yue Sheng didn't directly agree, but said pointedly: "Some time ago, Xu Cang came to look for me once, and it's only a few days ago, and he came to ask me for money again. bank?"

Yi Feng replied unhurriedly: "The previous time was to make you bet on the future. But this is different, this is an equal transaction. Moreover, if you ask the audit department of the National University of China, they will definitely I will persuade you to agree without hesitation."

Yue Sheng pursed his lips: "That's right, in the long run, we did take advantage. However, that doesn't mean I have to accept it. The interest rate that Xu Cang gave me is too high, and I don't even I wonder if I am lending usury."

What Xu Cang proposed to Yue Sheng was a one-month short-term loan, and the interest rate was already close to four times the interest rate of the central bank.This is basically the highest interest rate within the legal range.

"No, we don't do illegal things anyway." Yi Feng's mood was very flat, so flat that he didn't seem to care about such a transaction: "For the interest rate of short-term loans, this is already the highest With our mortgage, you don't have to take any risk. If we don't default, NUS can make a small profit in a month without affecting the flow of funds. If we default, maybe NUS should expect us to default more .”

Yue Sheng tapped his knuckles on the table, making a rhythmic sound.This kind of thing is indeed quite tempting, and it is a typical example of lying down and making money.Indeed, Yue Sheng actually hoped that Spring Airlines would default on the contract. After all, in the long run, the Hanking-Yangcheng route and the British guarantee for National University Airlines are more in line with interests.Just eating some interest is obviously not enough to satisfy Yue Sheng's appetite.

However, if it is only one month, the cycle is indeed very short, and even the loan will not have any major impact on National University Airlines.A small amount of interest money for snacks seems to be good, no matter what, no one can turn a blind eye to the fact that you can earn tens of millions a month for nothing.

As for what Yi Feng said about Spring and Summer Airlines' support for NUS in the UK, Yue Sheng had no doubts.He knew that Kingfisher Airlines in the UK would soon be merged into Spring and Summer Airlines, and with the support of a large local airline in the UK, it would not be difficult to guarantee the UK routes of National University Airlines.

Although Yue Sheng actually couldn't figure out why Spring Airlines could annex Kingfisher Airlines with its size.Even though Kingfisher Airlines is currently in deep financial crisis, it will not be swallowed by Spring Airlines, and there are many doubts.

However, no matter how strange, it happened.The General Administration has received relevant applications, and there is no way to fake it.

"It seems that Xu Cang is very short of money. What is he thinking about?" Yue Sheng is not a fool, Xu Cang must have a lot of money to raise such money, even Yue Sheng is curious about what Xu Cang is thinking.

Although Xu Cang is only in his twenties, if he starts something, it will turn the world upside down.

"It's inconvenient to tell you this." Yi Feng said: "Mr. Yue, what Xu Cang means is that this is only a icing on the cake, and he told you not to have any psychological burden. The main business is still in Japan."

"Japan." Yue Sheng's eyelids twitched: "Did he say when he will go to Japan again?"

"He needs to go to the UK first in the near future, and the trip to Japan must be ranked after the UK anyway. Moreover, the people at Jiasu Airlines need to give them time to calmly think about their way out, without being too rushed."

Yue Sheng sighed: "It seems that everything is in Xu Cang's plan."

Yi Feng nodded slightly: "Exactly."

Yue Sheng heard Yi Feng's words and said with a smile: "It seems that you are convinced by that kid Xu Cang?"

"Mr. Yue." Yi Feng's expression suddenly became serious: "If only in terms of civil aviation transportation, Xu Cang has always focused on foreign countries, at least in China, he will not have irreconcilable conflicts with you."

"I even gave him the Southwest, and there really isn't any irreconcilable conflict." Yue Sheng snorted, "Xu Cang has mixed thoughts. The last time he came to look for me, he even traded aviation materials with me. No Wrong, his aviation materials are cheaper, but he is not the only one in China. As long as this price advantage is not absolute, it is not actually an advantage. He is very smart, but he is too conceited. Woke up."

"Mr. Yue, there is something you said wrong."

Yue Sheng frowned: "Where?"

Yi Feng said seriously: "Xu Cang is proud, not conceited. Besides the aviation materials, in the future, there will be only one aviation materials company in China. By then, it will not be the so-called price advantage."

Yue Sheng narrowed his eyes, he felt that Yi Feng was not joking, but really thought so.But now the largest aviation materials company in China is clearly Tianrong Aviation Materials.

Tianrong Aviation Materials not only has a long history, but also has the largest scale in China. Is this ignored by Yifeng?

Just when Yue Sheng was wondering, the cell phone rang suddenly, he glanced at Yi Feng, did not avoid it, and answered the phone directly: "Talk!"

His secretary was on the other end of the phone: "Mr. Yue, something happened to Jianchuan Airlines."

"Jianchuan Airlines?" Yue Sheng raised his eyebrows. He remembered that Guoda Airlines controlled Jianchuan Airlines. In this way, Jianchuan Airlines can be regarded as its own subsidiary: "What's going on?"

The person on the phone paused: "It's Xu Cang."

About 5 minutes later, Yue Sheng's secretary finished explaining the cause and effect.Yue Sheng's face gradually became gloomy from the beginning of the phone call, so that in the end, the expression on his face froze.

"Mr. Yue, what should we do? Jianchuan Airlines has no idea. Do you need me to talk to Spring and Summer Airlines?"

Yue Sheng snorted heavily: "What are you talking about? A group of people who don't know how to live and die have offended people who shouldn't be offended. Now they are going to take revenge, and they actually want to drag us into it! Notify, whether it's the headquarters, or The Jianchuan branch is not allowed to provide any assistance to Jianchuan Airlines.”

"However, Jianchuan Airlines is our subsidiary after all, and the bureau should not let this happen, right?"

"What do you know? Now that Xu Cang wants to stand up, do you want us to become that slaughtered chicken?"

Since Yue Sheng said so, his secretary naturally dared not disobey him.Suddenly, the topic changed: "Mr. Yue, there is one more thing. Xu Cang is in our simulator training center."

"Huh?" Yue Sheng froze for a moment.He vaguely remembered that Xu Cang had burned down a simulator in his own simulator center last time, and this matter was left behind.

"Mr. Yue, our people in the bureau have learned something." The secretary then briefly explained the matter to Yue Sheng.

Yue Sheng's eyelids twitched when he heard it, and he secretly sighed in his heart that Xu Cang is really lawless, he doesn't even pay attention to the representative of the bureau.

"Forget it, don't worry about them." After speaking, Yue Sheng hung up the phone directly, and then turned his attention to Yi Feng.

Yi Feng frowned and asked, "I seem to have heard you mention Xu Cang just now?"

Yue Sheng threw the phone on the table: "Yes, what I just said was about Xu Cang."

Yi Feng frowned even tighter: "What's wrong with him, where is he?"

"Yi Feng, you just said that Xu Cang is arrogant rather than conceited. Perhaps, there is some truth in what you said. However, it is undeniable that he is a lunatic, a complete lunatic. Once he makes up his mind, Heaven will It can upset you."

Yi Feng's face suddenly darkened: "Where is he?"

"It's better not to look for him." Yue Sheng said with a smile, "Just here to see how he turned Han Jing's world over."

"What, can't you control it?" In the lobby on the first floor of the commentary building of the National University Aviation Simulator Training Center, Instructor Wang's forehead was full of veins, and he yelled at his mobile phone: "I am like this now, why do you ignore me?"

"Old Wang, don't worry!" On the other end of the phone, the general manager of Muhua Aviation's Jianchuan base quickly calmed down: "We are already in contact with Yangcheng, and Yangcheng will help us deal with it."

"Yangcheng Headquarters, those people in Yangcheng Headquarters are all in cahoots with Xu Cang, will they help me?" Teacher Wang snorted.

In the office of the general manager of Muhua Aviation Jianchuan Base, Zheng Yuanming was rubbing his temples, and he could feel his temples throbbing: "Anyway, you, the bureau representatives of Muhua Airlines, how could you The failure of the inspection is related to the face of our Muhua Airlines, and it is also related to the face of the Bureau.”

In the history of domestic civil aviation, there has never been a routine inspection in which a representative appointed by the bureau was hanged.This is a rule and a default rule.

As Zheng Yuanming said, the appointed representative of an airline is the face of the company.If Xu Cang hangs Teacher Wang up, wouldn't that be trampling on Muhua Aviation's face?
Moreover, the bureau appointed a representative with a dual identity and a background of the bureau, which invisibly gave the bureau a reason to intervene.

Hearing what Zheng Yuanming said, Teacher Wang turned pale: "You are right, our Muhua is not his Ma Cheng's, I don't believe that other people dare to let me be hanged by Xu Cang. Also, you guys Have you notified the bureau yet, this is in Hanjing, so notify the headquarters directly."

"Don't worry, I have already contacted the headquarters, and also communicated with the Flying Standards Department of the General Administration. They said that it was dealt with. Do you know what this means?"

Hearing this, Teacher Wang relaxed completely: "Hey, it seems that the General Administration does not allow him to act recklessly. How dare a commissioner from the International Civil Aviation Organization monitor the CAAC representative? Take a chicken feather as an arrow!"

"Old Wang, don't worry about it. Mr. Cheng from the Hanjing branch has already rushed to you. You know his temper, so why don't you take care of that Xu Cang?" Zheng Yuanming said with a smile: "In the final analysis , that guy Xu Cang is a lonely person, what are you afraid of him?"

Before Zheng Yuanming finished speaking, his office door was pushed open suddenly, and his secretary walked in with a strange expression, holding a document in his hand.Zheng Yuanming waved his hand, indicating that he was busy and asked the secretary to go out first.

However, the secretary did not leave. Instead, he handed the document to Zheng Yuanming, and whispered: "The official letter just sent by Spring and Summer Airlines."

"Huh?" Zheng Yuanming didn't hang up the phone either, but kept on talking, took the file and glanced at it.Just glanced over, was startled at first, and muttered: "Xu Cang, first-level flight commissioner of ICAO, No. 41357, is conducting aviation safety supervision on some pilots of your company. Please complete the simulation of the following personnel within the next week. machine arrangement."

The names of the three persons are attached at the end of the letter.

"Tian Shidong?" Zheng Yuanming was taken aback for a moment.

Isn't this a bureau-appointed representative of their base?Looking at the other two, these two are also true.

"No." Zheng Yuanming's brain got stuck.

ICAO's flight commissioners also need to meet certain regulations when exercising their supervisory powers, such as duty periods and the like.For example, if a pilot has just finished flying a flight, in principle, he cannot arrange a simulator immediately.

Therefore, Chunxia Airlines notified Muhua Airlines Jianchuan base directly by means of a formal letter, asking them to cooperate with the inspection and take the initiative to control the flight, thus eliminating the way Muhua Airlines Jianchuan base deliberately avoided.

"Old Zheng, what's the matter, what are you talking about?"

Zheng Yuanming's face was pale: "Old Wang, that Xu Cang is crazy, he doesn't seem to be targeting you."

"What do you mean?" Teacher Wang asked in confusion.

"Just now I received an official letter from Spring and Summer Airlines, Xu Cang wants to investigate the other three bureau representatives of our base." Zheng Yuanming recovered from the initial shock, and immediately cursed: "TMD, this kid is taking revenge on us. "

At the same time, in the office of the vice president of operations of Blue Sky Airlines, Luo Yong was gloomyly looking at the letter on the table, the content of which was the same as that received by Zheng Yuanming just now.

In the office, the two appointed representatives of Blue Sky Airlines looked at Luo Yong in fear, and one of them cursed: "Luo Yong, what should we do now? Ask Xu Cang to investigate me, instead of sending me to die?"

Luo Yong patted the table: "Don't you usually brag about how powerful you are? It's just an investigation. What are you afraid of? Just accept the investigation."

"Fart NM!" The bureau representative scolded directly: "It's so easy when your upper lip touches your lower lip, who doesn't know Xu Cang? If it falls into his hands, how can we get along? What happened in Japan a few days ago Don’t you know about it? Damn, the plane with a wingspan of 35.79 passed through the 35-meter bridge hole without any mistakes. Do you think he is at the same level as us? If he wants to hang us, he can’t do it casually?”

Facing the scolding from the appointed representative of his bureau, Luo Yong's face changed, and he was also panicked at the moment.It never occurred to him that Xu Cang still had the status of a flight commissioner of the International Civil Aviation Organization.

Moreover, in the final analysis, the flying industry is based on technology.If it were someone else, even the ICAO commissioner, those appointed representatives of the bureau would not be afraid, they would not think that they would be much worse than the ICAO flight commissioner.

Since the level is similar, then check it if you want to check it.

As an inspector, you must first ensure that you can complete a certain project, and then you are qualified to judge whether the inspected person has passed the project.Those representatives appointed by the bureau thought that what the ICAO flight specialists could do, they could do themselves, and those ICAO flight specialists could not do what they could not do.

That being the case, those particularly outrageous projects will not appear.Otherwise, if the inspector can't finish it by himself, how can he have the face to sign it as unqualified?

But Xu Cang is different!

Xu Cang will do what the appointed representative of the bureau can do.Xu Cang would still do what the bureau appointed a representative to fail to do.This caused Xu Cang to increase the difficulty of the simulator infinitely, who could bear it?
"Mr. Luo, our company has a total of four bureau-appointed representatives, and we are the only two on the list." Another bureau representative gritted his teeth and said, "I think it's because the two of us have been linked to many spring and summer airlines recently. The captain, and the other two who are not on the list have never been captains of Spring Airlines. Mr. Luo, you asked for the practice of staring at the captains of Spring Airlines."

The meaning of the bureau's appointment of a representative is very simple. At first they listened to Luo Yong's words, but now that Xu Cang came to take revenge, Luo Yong had to come up with a solution.

Luo Yong took a deep breath, trying to force himself to calm down, but it didn't help at all.In fact, he didn't know much about the content of the International Civil Aviation Organization regarding the exercise of supervisory power by the flight commissioner, but since Xu Cang dared to do this, he must have something to rely on.

"Is there a provision in the regulations to determine that the flight commissioner of the International Civil Aviation Organization can designate relevant personnel to be monitored?" Luo Yong asked suddenly.

This directly stopped the two appointed representatives of the bureau.If you ask them about the terms of CAAC, they are still very familiar with it.But if you ask about the terms of ICAO, your eyes will be blackened.

Luo Yong pondered for a moment: "Don't worry about anything else, first file a complaint with the Flying Bidding Department of the General Administration."

The two appointed representatives of the bureau were stunned: "What is the appeal?"

Luo Yong snorted coldly: "Abusing power!"

At this moment, Shen Yishan of Jianchuan Airlines also received a letter with the same content.Since then, the three airlines that were able to target Spring Airlines before have received letters without exception, targeting those appointed representatives of the bureau who maliciously hanged the captain and co-pilot of Spring Airlines.

At the same time, in the Flying Standard Division of Hanjing General Administration, Wu Yue continued to make a phone call with a positive expression: "Understood, we will investigate."

Just as Wu Yue hung up the phone, he sighed softly, and just when he got up, Li Jie had already appeared at the gate of the Feibiao Department as far as he could see.

Wu Yue hurried up to meet him: "Ju Li, Xu Cang!"

"I know! Mr. Cheng from Muhua Hanjing Branch has already called my office." Li Jie sighed, "It seems that Xu Cang didn't listen to what I told him before."

Wu Yue's face was also not good-looking: "Director Li, what should we do now? A total of eight bureaus have appointed representatives, involving three companies. The scope is too large."

"I told him that you can only move one if you want to move, but he didn't listen." Li Jie said lightly: "The representative appointed by the bureau is the face of CAAC, and it is impossible to resign in this way. You go to the National University of China. Go to the simulator center and tell Xu Cang that he has crossed the line."

However, Wu Yue did not leave immediately, but asked carefully: "What if Xu Cang doesn't listen?"
