Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Chapter 1370: Taking Orders 15

Airbus and Boeing are having a meeting, and the richest man Bao is not idle either. But it's not a meeting, after all, the task has been completed today; employees should be allowed to have a good rest, as there will be greater challenges waiting for them tomorrow.

Employees can take a break, but as a boss, you don't have that blessing. When an important customer comes to the Black Cloud Hotel in Paris, he must be received in person.

Emirates Airlines has been established for some time, and judging from the current results, business is still very good. Both Dubai and Abu Dhabi are rich, and many surrounding countries do not yet have modern airports. Flying to Europe and the United States must go through the airports in the United Arab Emirates, so many people in other Arab countries take Emirates flights.

It is surrounded by major oil-producing countries. After all, there is not much else in the Middle East, and there will definitely be no shortage of oil. Moreover, it is polygamy, and there are many princes and wealthy children. Princes, princesses, and children of wealthy families have experienced this many times in European countries. Therefore, although Emirates Airlines is not as arrogant as later generations, based on its current scale and revenue capabilities, it is indeed the envy of other airlines.

Currently, Emirates Airlines has three main shareholders, Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Black Cloud Group. Bao Zixuan is already preparing to transfer the shares of Heiyun Group to Shala of Fucaira. Doing this can reassure the other two families. After all, they are still more willing to believe in Fucaira.

However, the procedures have not been completed yet, and we can only wait until we go to the United Arab Emirates. However, it has been disclosed to Abu Dhabi and Dubai in advance that neither of them has any objections.

As the head of state of the United Arab Emirates, the Ruler of Abu Dhabi does not need to do many things, and it is not convenient for him to appear in person. Therefore, for things like the Paris Air Show, Rashid, the Ruler of Dubai, usually comes. Moreover, the airport itself is built in Dubai. As the host, it is normal to come and purchase aircraft.

Bao Zixuan smiled and said: "Chief Rashid, we haven't seen each other for a long time. Seeing that you are still looking so good, as an old friend, I am really happy for you."

The relationship between the two is very complicated. There is nothing wrong with saying they are friends, but it seems right to say they are partners. Although Sala is the chief of Fucairah, the entire Arab world probably understands what is going on. Without this kid to help him, how could Shala become the chief?

No one knows Fucaira’s previous economic strength better than him. Without the heavy investment from Bao Zixuan's Heiyun Group, how could it have developed so fast. In recent times, it can be said to be the fastest-growing country in the Middle East.

Apart from oil, Dubai has few other advantages. If Fucairah is allowed to catch up, the economy will surely plummet. Therefore, the two are still competitors, so it is very complicated.

However, the other party’s kind greetings cannot be ignored. Although Bao Zixuan is not a head of state such as a chief or a king. But no head of state thinks that he is more powerful or noble than others.

And this time, I still hope to increase investment in Emirates Airlines; after all, if you want to occupy the absolute top in the competition, you must make your own construction more convenient. At least in terms of travel, I still hope to come from surrounding areas and start from Dubai.

Both Abu Dhabi and Dubai have strong financial strength, but this time the plan is a bit big. If Heiyun Group does not support it, or does not want to increase investment. Even if the matter is completed, it will not be conducive to investment in other projects in the UAE. After all, there is only so much money, and if it is all used to purchase aircraft, other projects will definitely be affected.

Moreover, expanding the scale of Emirates Airlines does not want Fucairah to develop corresponding businesses. The entire aviation market is only that big, if Dubai takes the initiative. Then Fucaira will definitely not be building an airport or establishing an airline; even if it does build one, the scale will be limited.

Rashid himself knows that Dubai is not as rich in oil reserves as Abu Dhabi. He himself does not have Bao Zixuan's ability, at least in terms of wealth and ability, he is far behind. Then we must seize some other resources, among which air transportation and airport hubs are important areas.

If you want to compete with Bao Zixuan in scientific research, machinery manufacturing, and computers, let alone Dubai, I estimate that no company in the world can compete with it. Now doing some industries that Dubai can control is the most perfect result.

Rashid smiled and said: "I am already old, but I am not as good as you young people. I feel powerless to do anything now, but none of the children are as capable as you. But if there is one, I can be ten times as capable as you." One ability; I even want to abdicate immediately."

Regardless of whether it is true or not, when it comes to the throne, no one is willing to give up easily. Unless it is absolutely necessary, or the day of death; normal people are not at the height to abdicate early.

Bao Zixuan: "You must not say that. Judging from your condition, you will still have no problem leading Dubai for decades."

They are familiar with each other, but they cannot be the same as the Japanese. Negotiate the contract directly when you come up, otherwise it will appear unreasonable.

Afterwards, the two exchanged some pleasantries and got down to business.

Rashid: "I came to Paris this time to participate in the air show. The purpose is to purchase aircraft, especially super large passenger aircraft. Although you don't pay attention to it, after all, for you, Emirates Airlines is an insignificant small business. But as a Shareholders should still know the company’s development status.”

"Currently, the entire Emirates airline has purchased and leased 18 aircraft of various types, and they are overloaded almost every day. After all, surrounding countries need to take Emirates airlines from Dubai to European and American countries. The company is developing very fast, and it is absolutely overloaded. Unimaginable.”

Bao Zixuan certainly knows that with Dubai's active open-sky policy, Emirates continues to develop and expand to maintain a competitive advantage and fully support the policy. It has been profitable year after year since the start of operations. In the first ten years, it doubled every three and a half years, an astonishing growth rate. That was still in the previous life, but now I have joined; the investment will be greater, and the development speed will of course be faster.

Although it was only established two years ago, its scale is already equivalent to that of the previous generation around the 1990s.

With such a rapid expansion, there will of course be more demand for aircraft. Even though I purchased several airplanes from Heiyun Group, I never stopped thinking about big airplanes.

In its previous life, it was one of the fastest growing airlines in the world and one of the few airlines in the world that only used large aircraft. The total number of Airbus A380 aircraft ordered by Emirates reached 140.

The H3M-111 produced by United Aircraft Manufacturing Company is almost the same as the Airbus A380. So the current order must ensure that the money does not go to outsiders.

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "I didn't expect Emirates Airlines to develop so fast. It seems that if Chief Rashid is not the head of state, he will be a very successful businessman."

"If there is a need, I will do it. Please just say so. Whether it is increasing investment or purchasing aircraft, I will support it unconditionally."

Even if we know that Emirates Airlines is developing rapidly, we cannot reveal it too obviously at this time. Moreover, this is a business that is sure to make a profit without losing any money. You can also make two profits, so there is no reason to refuse.

What is important is Bao Zixuan's words. As long as this guy is willing to invest, everything will be easy to handle.

Rashid: "This time, we are going to order 50 H3M-111 passenger planes and 3 cargo planes. Among them, 40 of the passenger planes need to be premium versions, and the remaining 10 will be luxury versions. At the same time, we need to order 8 black aircraft. All Cloud 919 passenger aircraft are first class and business class aircraft.”

After hearing this data, Bao Zixuan's mind was a little short-circuited. I remember that in the previous life, at the Paris Air Show in 2003, Emirates announced the largest passenger aircraft transaction in aviation history, with a total of 71 new passenger aircraft worth US$19 billion, including Airbus and Boeing passenger aircraft. Emirates has become the largest buyer of A340-600 HGW and A380 passenger aircraft.

At the 9th Dubai International Air Show in 2005, Emirates Airlines announced a formal order for 42 Boeing 777 passenger aircraft, with a total value equivalent to US$9.7 billion. It was the largest transaction in the history of Boeing 777, including 24 Boeing 777-300ER, 10 Boeing 777-200LR, 8 Boeing 777F.

At the 2006 Farnborough Air Show in the UK, Emirates signed a letter of intent for 10 Boeing aircraft in a deal valued at US$3.3 billion.

At the Dubai Air Show in November 2007, Emirates announced a historic order for civil aviation aircraft. The purchase included 120 Airbus A350 aircraft, 11 A380 aircraft and 12 Boeing 777-300ER aircraft. The estimated price Approximately US$34.9 billion.

But at that time, we had already entered the 21st century, and now it is still more than ten years away from 2003. What happened to make the UAE sheikhs so radical? I really don't understand, but since he is planning to order an airplane, it is a good thing for him.

Moreover, Emirates Airlines is developing rapidly, and as a shareholder, of course, you will also benefit from it!
