Age of Dreams

The development of express delivery is very simple. In the same city, it usually recruits more than a dozen salesmen. Every day they go to other people's shops and collect the goods, and then send them out on an electric bicycle.

If it is a medium-sized company that runs business in the province, then just add a few cars to run.

To expand to the whole country, it is to subcontract each province, and entrust the aircraft to send the goods out, and then the subcontractor over there can send the goods after receiving the goods.

In the future, tens of thousands of express companies, large and small, will be able to live more moisturized lives on the land of China, which is why.

However, if Xiao Qi wants to do his best, then he can't be so careless.

First of all, the first point is that it is definitely not possible to contract out various business points, so that many things are not within their control, and what happens is too easy to ruin their reputation.

In the future, why Shentong, Tiantian, YTO, Yunda and other express delivery services are not of high grade, most of which are related to this factor.

And those who do well, such as Shunfeng, DHL, FedEX, UPS, each branch is its own direct-sale store, unified management and standardized management, it is easy to form brand awareness and make it bigger.

In order to become a top express company, in addition to Xiao Qi's first large-scale enclosure and construction of logistics parks, there is also an equally important condition-a good transportation network!

A successful transportation network includes three major elements: land, sea and air.

"Sea" refers to the tactics of the human sea, that is, the army of electric bicycles and electric tricycles in each city, forming a sea of ​​people's warfare, and extending the tentacles of delivery to every corner of the city.

"Land" is naturally land transportation, mainly short- and medium-distance truck transportation, usually the smallest range is between cities, and the largest range is the surrounding provinces.

"Empty" refers to the plane, and it is best to use a dedicated cargo plane. This is far better than you and other couriers competing for the little space under the passenger plane in terms of the speed and convenience of time. It is also the biggest secret why Shunfeng Express can stand out from the crowd.

Both "sea" and "land" are easy to handle.

Courier personnel have begun large-scale training in North China and Jiangnan. With the hand-in-hand instruction of Japanese logistics experts, they will be much better than ordinary couriers when they come out.

Land transport drivers and cars are also very easy to do. As long as they have money and good welfare benefits, a huge logistics fleet will appear in front of them.

The key is on the plane.

There are now many domestic private airlines. After the large-scale reorganization and reform of the domestic civil aviation industry in 2002 and the sharp drop in air freight rates in 2003, private aviation has sprung up like bamboo shoots after a rain.

But until today, five years later, their life is very difficult. Like other industries, government departments are giving priority to taking care of their sons. Therefore, factors such as scale, routes, allocation of resources, and control restrict most private aviation companies. development of.

Even Eastern Star Airlines will collapse next year, followed by Okay Airlines, etc., will also be ordered to suspend business for rectification and then go bankrupt.

However, what Xiao Qi wants to do is not private passenger aviation, but specialized cargo aviation.

At the forefront is Shunfeng Express. In 2003, they took advantage of the Civil Aviation Administration of China to lower the price of each air route. They leased two Yangtze River Express planes and started to work for themselves in Guangdong, Dongfang and Guangdong. Lin'an express delivery of goods.

However, Shunfeng Express did not realize how crazy the development of China's express delivery industry would be in the next few years, so now they only leased five cargo planes to transport the goods.

What Xiao Qi admired most is the operation of large-scale and large-scale funds.

At the very beginning, it must be vigorous and quickly occupy the market, and then slowly encircle and suppress other express delivery industries and become the boss of domestic express delivery.

That's why he spent more than 450 billion to build a logistics park crazy hoarding land.

The plane is naturally something Xiao Qi will consider.

Starting next month at the latest, the logistics base of Xiaoyao Express will begin construction.

The construction of the initial logistics base is completed, and there will be at most five months before the inter-city Express Express will begin to operate.

At that time, the plane should arrive in China, and begin to deliver it to the cargo airline established by Xiao Qi, and slowly try to deliver express parcels quickly in big cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen.

For this reason, among the land reserves in Xiao Qi's hands, almost every major airport in the country has bought dozens of acres of land, ready to build a distribution center, and quickly distributed to various cities and regions.

The only thing that is not under Xiao Qi's control is the aircraft itself.

Buying a brand-new cargo plane is definitely the best, but the cost is very high, so just like many young people abroad buying a car, if you want to buy it, you can buy a second-hand one.

After listening to Xiao Qi recounting his thoughts on freight logistics, Branson, who had known UPS, DHL, FedEX and other companies, immediately understood what he meant.

"This is easy to handle. There are a large number of second-hand aircraft scrapped in Europe and the United States every year. We don't need to buy retired second-hand aircraft. However, the performance of the aircraft two or three years after retirement is still very good and the price is cheap. After the modification at the EFW factory in Germany, After you have taken care of it, it is absolutely not a problem to use it for three to five years." Branson suggested to Xiao Qi in this way.

"In terms of maintenance, you have to help me train a group of people." Xiao Qi said.

Only having one's own personnel to maintain and repair the aircraft is the most reassuring.

The foreign aircraft maintenance technology is undoubtedly very high.

Virgin Atlantic's learning is only the first step. In the future, Xiao Qi will send more technicians to various airlines in China and Europe and the United States to study and study technology, and strive to create the world's first-class technicians like our rocket research and development team. Come.

"No problem, ask them to go to our company for further study. I heard that you Chinese are the most diligent, and I will have an extra batch of free laborers at that time." Branson also said unambiguously.

Xiao Qi laughed when he heard that.

But the right is to be the tuition fee, so I can subsidize the workers on my own side.

Just as Branson said, Chinese people learn things the fastest and most earnestly, and have a strong ability to imitate, otherwise there would not be so many counterfeit products to counterattack the world.

"Get me ten at the beginning, and deliver it within half a year." Xiao Qi said, "I hope the freight capacity can reach more than 40 tons."

"No problem. The A300B4 has a cargo capacity of 43 tons. The second-hand price of a better quality is about 35 million U.S. dollars. The EFW's annual modification volume is only 22-25. Although the A300B4 is already a cargo aircraft, it still needs it. Further modification, you want within half a year, the modification fee and the expedited fee together, I am afraid it will cost 2 million." Branson calculated the price.

"Tomorrow, I will pay the money to your account and entrust you to handle it with full authority." Xiao Qihao said dryly, "After half a year, I want to see them all land on the airport in China!"

"Haha, you are really happy!" Branson laughed~www.readwn.com~ This express company has not been built yet, and the cost investment is so large. It seems that you want to compete with several major express companies. Wrench! "

"Every country has the market quotation of each country." Xiao Qi resolutely said: "Although they have achieved success all over the world, it does not mean that I can't beat them in China!"

Branson nodded, how can he do business without being aggressive?

Xiao Qi's unafraid character fits his liking.

The two of them have reached a consensus on the support and the plane, and Branson's heart is more at ease: "Then, look at our cooperation..."

Xiao Qi said sternly, "Let the people below them negotiate. If there is no big problem, you will be my partner!"

"great!"

Branson waved his fists excitedly.

With DreamPad's shares, whether in wealth or prestige, he can go to the next level!
