the following few days.

The light-energy airliner "Xingmeng" is carrying out flight test missions every day.

The progress is rapid.

On February 8, a test flight with 50 tons of cargo was carried out.

On the 9th, a half-load test flight was carried out with 250 passengers and 25 tons of cargo.

On the 10th, a full-load test flight was carried out with 500 passengers and 50 tons of cargo.

On the 12th, COMAC officially opened the sales reservation channel for the "Xingmeng" solar passenger aircraft. The conditions put forward were very strict, mainly including five items:

One, it is currently limited to cooperation with domestic airlines.

Second, the "Xingmeng" light-powered passenger aircraft is priced at 2 billion yuan each, which is 2.5 times the price of traditional aircraft.

Third, you must pay 100% in full to be eligible for priority delivery, and those who are unable to pay the full amount will queue up obediently.

Fourth, it is allowed to increase the price to grab orders. The more the price is increased, the more the right of first refusal.

Fifth, the order cannot be canceled. If the order is cancelled, a sky-high liquidated damages must be paid.

The terms of the above articles are placed in front of many domestic airlines.

If it was in the past, faced with these terms, the bosses of domestic airlines would definitely yell loudly that this is an overlord clause, which is absolutely unacceptable and will never compromise.

but now……

China Southern Airlines placed intentional orders for 180 ships, paid 10 billion in cash, and requested to deliver 5 ships as soon as possible.

Northern Airlines placed an intentional order for 120 ships, paid 6 billion in cash, and requested to deliver 3 ships as soon as possible.

Spring Airlines placed an intentional order for 50 ships, paid 2 billion in cash, and requested to deliver one ship as soon as possible.

Hua Xia Airlines placed an intentional order for 40 ships, paid 2 billion in cash, and requested that one ship be delivered as soon as possible.

Shunfeng Logistics Company placed an intentional order for 30 ships...

There are other airlines and logistics companies with more than 100 intentional orders.

In just two or three days, the total contracted orders for the "Xingmeng" solar passenger aircraft exceeded 500.

No boss of a domestic airline complained that the terms of the contract were too overbearing, and only hoped that the delivery could be made as soon as possible.

Even if the price of 'Dream' is indeed slightly high and requires a large amount of cash to buy, but without exception, they can only choose 'Dream', and cancel and abandon all foreign aircraft purchase orders, even if Liquidated damages are required.

no way!

Numerous experts in the field of civil aviation have come to a conclusion: In the future domestic aviation market, if you do not buy the "Xingmeng" light-powered passenger aircraft, you will only have a dead end! There is no competition.

Because the cost of using the "Xingmeng" is lower.

The passenger capacity is two or three times that of traditional aircraft.

Lower maintenance costs.

The full-cycle service life exceeds 40 years, while traditional aircraft can only be used for about 25 years.

There are also safety and reliability, pilot training costs, etc., which are not comparable.

In addition, the vast number of passengers are more willing to take the "Star Dream" produced by COMAC, and will not consider taking unsafe traditional aircraft.

On the whole, the price-performance ratio of "Xingmeng" is obviously higher, and it brings more profits, and because it does not burn oil and is more friendly to the environment, it has received strong support from the state and enjoys some preferential policies, relying only on sales The accumulated carbon points can earn a lot.

It's over.

Traditional airplanes are doomed.

When the news spread to the stock markets of Western countries, the stock prices of the two airlines, Maiyin and Bock, both plummeted by more than 40%.

Especially for the management, shareholders and investors of the two companies, Maiyin and Boke, it was dark before their eyes, and it felt like the sky was falling.

The innocence has collapsed!

Their company's aircraft will soon be swept into the garbage dump of history, and they will be completely eliminated.

At the meeting to discuss countermeasures, the management of the two companies had been discussing for days and nights, but they couldn't come up with a very effective solution.

"What to do, what should we do?"

"Banned! Never allow light-energy passenger planes to enter our aviation market, and immediately stop the research and development of new fuel-fueled models. We must also develop similar light-energy passenger plane products, and catch up in this field as soon as possible."

"How to chase? We don't even have space energy facilities. The Iron Horse said that we will take action within two or three years, but there has been no movement until now. Without the high-energy light energy supply in space, it is useless for us to build a light-powered airliner! "

"Why do we have to build a space energy facility? If we build it on the ground, we can also irradiate it. Why do we have to go into space?"

"Building light column energy supply facilities on the ground, the dissipation rate brought by the air is too high, and the energy supply distance cannot exceed 50 kilometers. We must go to space to build energy supply facilities!"

"If you want to catch up now, it is impossible to catch up without more than five years, but after five years, the light-powered airliner of the Huaguo people has already occupied most of the civil aviation market in the world, even if we shut it out , can only hold a small part of the market, it is still difficult to survive, and it is meaningless, let’s compromise, share all our technologies, let go of our market, and find a way to merge the three aviation manufacturing companies into one , each takes one-third of the shares, division of labor and cooperation, all participate in the manufacturing of light-energy passenger aircraft, and also reach a cooperation with Xingyuan Group to purchase energy from them...Three companies, share this big cake equally!"

"Compromise? This is clearly surrendering, kowtowing to the people of Huaguo! It's begging for their charity. When did we get to this point? I would rather the company go bankrupt than accept such a result!"

"Yes, if you want to say that this is a surrender, then this is indeed a surrender, and the sooner you surrender, the better, and you can get the best cooperation conditions. If the time is later, we can't even get better conditions. At that time, our company can only go bankrupt, and we will all become penniless vagabonds from corporate executives and shareholders. At that time, you will all regret why you didn’t follow my advice.” The young senior executive .

"No! I will not regret it. Even if I become a beggar and a tramp, I will not kneel down. This is a more terrible humiliation than death threats. It kills me mentally!" The white executive said, Said with a red neck.

"God, what's going on? Has the merciful Lord abandoned us? It's only been a few years. Why do you only care for those Chinese people instead of continuing to care for us? Is it because we are not pious enough?" The executive made a gesture of prayer, and said in a godlike voice, pinning his hope on God's blessing.

"Immediately send several mildly worded cooperation applications, proposing to establish cooperation with Huaguo's Commercial Aircraft Company, import their technology, and exchange our technology. If they are unwilling to cooperate, they will face serious consequences. Tell them , It would be a very wrong choice to try to monopolize some advanced technologies.”

Jim Nani, CEO of Maiyin Company, in fact, in his heart, he also tends to compromise and surrender as soon as possible, the sooner he surrenders, the better! However, the arrogance of some shareholders and investors does not allow him to make any compromises. They can only continue to maintain a superior posture and use the old way to deal with Huaguo people. , that's all.

...

On February 15th, the first "Xingmeng" light-energy airliner announced that it had completed its test flight and was delivered to China Southern Airlines. It entered the stage of commercial trial operation, with four flights a day between Shenhai City and Tianhai City. The flight missions are full every time, attracting countless bloggers to experience and check in.

On the 16th, at the final assembly plant of COMAC, the second ship "Xingmeng" rolled off the production line and was immediately delivered to customers. It is making every effort to increase production capacity. It is necessary to increase the output of "Xingmeng" to every ten days as soon as possible. The level of one ship, one ship per week, or even one ship every three days is running at full capacity, and all employees are working overtime, because orders in the domestic market will take at least three to five years to complete, and there are countless orders in foreign markets In short, in the next five to ten years, some of them will be busy.

The good news one after another caused the stock prices of Maiyin and Boke to fall again and again, turning them into junk stocks that no one cares about.

At this time, the vast number of netizens in Huaguo suddenly discovered that the atmosphere of public opinion in the West had undergone a very big change.

Their news reports suddenly became more objective.

No more filters of any kind.

He also praised Hua Guo as if it was a paradise on earth, all of which were praises, and there was no bad word.

Such a change in public opinion broke the hearts of many Western netizens and made it difficult to accept it. It also made many Western girls have a good impression and interest in the East, and even wanted to marry an Eastern man-these are good aspects.

On the bad side, various methods were adopted, and the number of illegal immigrants entering China surged, which brought many factors of instability.

On the Internet, Huaguo netizens are discussing:

"Praise and kill, slander and smear have no effect, now it is replaced by praise and kill."

"I still like their arrogance and rebellion, and I hope to restore it."

"This trick is really powerful. Praise and praise are easier to destroy a person."

"Please continue to report our shortcomings, we are still underdeveloped, the per capita income is still very low, and the poor in the west are eating grass."

"We're not a paradise here, we're still very curvy, don't drag your family over here."
