Rebirth of England.

Chapter 973 Standard Bombardier

As mentioned above, the grand banquet held by Barron at Chatsworth House was a fund-raising activity for those British aristocrats who had a profound background, were still prominent, and had accumulated considerable wealth.

During the year-end period, DS Group, Standard Chartered Bank and Euronext Bank are also holding various fundraising receptions and other activities throughout Europe to raise funds for these two super funds.

After all, the Vision Fund for emerging markets is a fund jointly established by DS Group and Standard Chartered Bank, and its custodian bank is Standard Chartered Bank, which has more branches in emerging markets.

The European Wealth Fund, which invests in the European market, is a fund jointly established by the DS Group and the Eurofins Bank, with the custodian bank being the Eurofins Bank.

Not only the British aristocracy, but also the aristocrats and wealthy people from other European countries have actively participated in the investment of these two funds.

If in the beginning, the funds launched by Barron required the nobles and wealthy people to put out a small portion of their funds to try out, then now with Barron's continued success, the funds he launched can not only attract capital from the Middle East, but are also very popular among the European gentlemen and emerging wealthy people.

Because these two super funds have very high investment thresholds, the families that are able to invest in them all use investing in these two funds as a low-key way to show off.

Why were Wall Street capitals such as BlackRock, Vanguard Group and State Street Corporation so powerful in the original time and space?
Making money with other people's money is a business that is sure to make money.

Moreover, those investors are wealthy and influential people in various fields, and the energy gathered by them is very terrifying.

Through these two super funds, Barron is slowly bringing together traditional wealthy families across Europe, so that his future investments will be successful.

12月5日，科洛航空公司同标准庞巴迪公司签订了价值将近15亿美元的订单，他们将向标准庞巴迪航空制造公司购买20架CRJ900型支线客机，并且预订了11架标准庞巴迪公司即将推出的C系列的最新支线客机，其中包括5架CS100和6架CS300型号的飞机。

One of the CS300s will be converted into President Kolo's private plane.

CRJ900是90座级支线喷气飞机，为CRJ-700型的加长型，也是庞巴迪民用支线客机中最成功的CRJ系列中最大、最新的成员，2000年7月24日正式启动研制计划于2001年2月21日首飞……

It is also because of the success of the CRJ series of aircraft that Bombardier was once regarded as the world's third largest passenger aircraft manufacturer after Boeing and Airbus... Of course, the so-called third is a bit far behind Boeing and Airbus, which are in the top two.

It can be said that although the CRJ900 is relatively "old", it can also be regarded as a relatively cost-effective regional airliner. Compared with its main competitor, the Embraer 190, although the CRJ 900 is smaller, its operating costs are much lower.

CRJ 900的运营月成本低于50万美元，而在相同条件下，190需要付出比CRJ 900高35%的成本，而且每月需要多搭载1942位乘客来保持收支平衡。

The CRJ900 aircraft purchased by Colombo Airlines will be used on routes between them and African countries. As an aircraft with less than 100 seats, the CRJ900 is relatively suitable for Colombo's current passenger volume.

This is also the "support" that Barron provided to the company, which has been renamed Standard Bombardier, in commercial aircraft after acquiring Bombardier's aviation business.

The completion of this order will greatly improve the company's financial situation in regional aircraft. After all, before this, Bombardier suffered huge losses in order to develop the C series of 100-130 seat regional aircraft.

It can be said that this acquisition of Bombardier's aviation business saved the company's regional aircraft business.

In the original time and space, Bombardier sold its regional jet business one after another due to its deteriorating financial situation.

First, in 2017, the leading role of the newly developed C Series passenger aircraft project was handed over to Airbus, and the name was directly changed to A220...

Then, in early 2019, it sold its "Charge" series turboprop regional jets to de Havilland; in the same year, it sold its CRJ project to Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, thus completely abandoning its regional jet business...

Now, with the financial backing of Barron, the standard Bombardier C Series will continue...

In 2004, Bombardier began work on a new aircraft to compete in the regional jet market dominated by aging DC9s, MD80s, Fokker 100s and Bae 146/Avro RJs, calling it the CSeries.

Bombardier says the name stands for "competitiveness," "intercontinental capability" and "connector," and is a nod to Canadair, the Canadian aircraft manufacturer it acquired in 1986.

At the same time, the C Series also represents Bombardier’s ambition at the time - C also implies that Bombardier hopes to break the pattern in which the single-aisle aircraft market is dominated by Boeing and Airbus, because A represents Airbus and B represents Boeing.

At this time, the research and development of relevant models has entered the final stage. The model is planned to adopt a 3+2 layout, with larger windows and luggage racks, while fuel consumption and operating costs will be reduced by 20% and 15% respectively.

C系列包括两种型号，其中的较小型号（CS100）将可以容纳100至115名乘客，而较大型号（CS300）将可以容纳130至135乘客。

在原时空中，2016年6月30日，瑞士航空接收了首架CS100飞机，并于7月15日开始从苏黎世飞往巴黎戴高乐机场的首次航行。

第一架CS300飞机在2016年11月28日向波罗的海航空交付，并于2016年12月14日投入从拉脱维亚首都里加至荷兰首都阿姆斯特丹的商业运营。

However, now that Kolo Airlines has made advance bookings, Standard Bombardier, which has received more funds, will step up its efforts and is expected to start delivering CS2015 aircraft in 100...

Currently, some of Bombardier Aviation's major assembly lines and related functions, including the C Series aircraft program, will remain in Quebec, Canada, where they will mainly serve North American customers.

They plan to add standard Bombardier aerospace assembly and major parts production centers in the UK and France to serve European, Asian and African customers...

In addition to Kolor Airlines, Barron's DS Group and Standard Chartered Merrill Lynch also own partial shares in some other airlines, and also own the world's second largest aircraft leasing company - Global Lease Finance, which was originally acquired from American International Group. It owns more than 1000 aircraft of various types. Some of Kolor Airlines' previous companies leased aircraft from here.

Therefore, it is not difficult for Barron to expand Standard Bombardier's regional jet business.
