Rebirth of the Military Industrial Overlord

"Prince Sheikh, I know all the things you said very well!" Tan Zhenhua replied with a smile, "Because I am doing the same thing? Since you have checked my past experience, don't you? You know, when I am in Hong Kong, do I have a stake in an airline company?"

"Uh, this..." Sheikh's face flashed a blush again. He is in charge of Dubai's security affairs. However, you want a security officer from the emirate to check the past experience of a person like Tan Zhenhua. It is too difficult for him to be clear.

Knowing that Tan Zhenhua is a rich man, knowing that he can respond in the financial market, knowing that there are several companies under his current name is already the limit of his ability, that’s it, or is it because Tan Zhenhua’s main place for making trouble some time ago is In London, Britain, the Arab Emirates' embassy in London is not enough to eat rice, and London happens to be the place where our Three Princes once studied.

He is fairly well-connected there, and there are many high-level friends, some of whom admire Tan Zhenhua and some who hate Tan Zhenhua-but no matter what kind of attitude, at least there is a consensus. This is from China. The kid has extraordinary energy and a strong circle of friends.

The base camp of "Dragonair" is in Xiangjiang, and Master Tan Er is only one of the shareholders of this company. The real person of this company is Cao Guangbiao. Although the company has been registered, it is only in In the initial stage, the current main task is to recruit troops and purchase routes and airport berths-only in Southeast Asia, and because the BAC purchased has not been delivered yet, there is not even a plane that can be put into operation on hand, so the bag is empty. Shell company, where does Sheikh know to go? He is not the head of the CIA.

Tan Zhenhua saw the embarrassment of Sheikh, and he was not too concerned. After all, "Dragonair" has just established its name. It is normal if others don’t know it, so he explained: “That’s it. The predecessor established an airline in Hong Kong called "Dragonair". The main idea is to establish a foothold in Southeast Asia and then gradually expand into the global market. It is also just beginning. Currently waiting for the delivery of the first aircraft, it is expected to be available in the second half of this year. Officially put into operation."

"Oh, that's the case, Eric, you're such a big deal." Sheikh first sighed and then asked casually, "Then who bought your plane? The McDonnell Douglas incident has caused trouble in the city recently, you Be careful if you buy his plane."

Sheikh’s question was partly concerned and partly intentional, but Tan Zhenhua could hear everything in his ears. After all, this McDonnell Douglas made a lot of trouble in the city, but he has a "credit", and, soon In the future, I am afraid there will be even worse things... He threw these irrelevant ideas out of his mind, and said to Sheikh: "His Royal Highness, I did not buy McDonnell Douglas aircraft, I bought British Aerospace The company’s BAC, I spent a lot of time in London some time ago, most of which is for this."

"BAC, I know the plane." Sheikh replied, "It's a good plane, but the design is a bit older and the range is a bit shorter."

"Oh? I can't see that His Royal Highness actually has a lot of research on airplanes?" Sheykh's words made Tan Zhenhua inquiring. A seemingly simple sentence revealed a lot of information. This Prince Sheykh Obviously, I know a lot about airplanes, and I have at least studied the BAC airplane carefully. Otherwise, with his "second generation" status, he would never say such a thing.

Sheikh finally showed a proud look and said: "Eric, I am a pilot and a qualified fighter pilot. Both Mirage 2000 and F-16 can fly!"

This is news. Tan Zhenhua's face suddenly showed admiration, "Wow! Great!" He praised, "Flying a war eagle in the blue sky, this is one of my dreams, but unfortunately, my body is not good. I guess there is no hope of realization in this life. However, a good friend of mine is undergoing training. I think he will definitely become an excellent fighter pilot. There will be opportunities in the future. I will introduce him and your Highness to meet each other. Maybe you guys. We can also learn from each other."

Sheik continued his pride and said: "Okay, welcome, one day he will come, let's play a simulated air battle!"

So are fighter jets just your toys? ! Tan Zhenhua grumbled in his heart, and said with a smile: "But there is a problem with your Highness's statement about BAC."

"Oh?"

"As far as I know, BAC's latest model "BAC1-11-700" has undergone significant improvements. The number of seats in the full economy class layout has reached 136. The new engine meets the latest emission and noise standards in Europe and the United States, and the range is also Increased to 4500 kilometers, the electronic system of the entire aircraft has undergone the latest upgrade, the degree of automation has been greatly improved, and it has been changed to the latest two-person pilot unit. If it is not because of the scale of production that the unit price is higher, it is actually completely The ability to compete with aircraft such as Boeing 737 and McDonnell Douglas DC-9."

Sheikh listened patiently to Tan Zhenhua’s account, and then shrugged his shoulders and said, "Well, Eric, since you have already bought this plane, you must have learned about it after some investigation. I have to admit, you said Maybe they are all right, but I’m just a little curious. After all, for a businessman, cost should be an important consideration. Why didn’t you consider Boeing or McDonnell Douglas, which are more widely used and cheaper in unit prices?"

"Of course it is because the price will soon be no problem for me." Tan Zhenhua replied with a smile.

"Aha? Are those arrogant Britons willing to give you a big discount?" Sheikh asked half-seriously and half jokingly.

He really cares a little bit about this. After all, the Alian Emirates, which is jointly funded by the seven major emirates, is already a certainty, but it takes some time to prepare. For a newly established airline The most important thing is probably the largest investment-the cost of buying an airplane. If Tan Zhenhua can put forward any constructive cost reduction plan, Xie He is of course willing to learn.

He quickly got the answer, and while this answer made him dumbfounded, he also had a deeper understanding of the great Chinese young man in front of him.

"Of course it is," Tan Zhenhua said lightly as if it was a trivial matter: "In addition to buying a few ready-made BAC passenger planes, I also bought one of its production lines by the way. The cost of the plane I built by myself is of course fine. Control, sell it to my own airline, the price, naturally I have the final say!"
