Resource Tycoon Reborn
Chapter 137 Sticks and Carrots
"Fang, I have to say, you have created a miracle in the East!" Airbus President Eric Merkel exclaimed after visiting the assembly line of Qinxi Aviation Manufacturing Group. This was not the first time for him to do so.
He came to Qinxi Aviation Manufacturing Group, but every time he came, he would find that Qinxi Aviation Manufacturing Group had undergone obvious changes. What amazed him the most was that he found that Qinxi Aviation Manufacturing Group had transferred them from Airbus
The things learned have been applied in practice! This shows that Qinxi Aviation Manufacturing Group has a strong ability to digest and absorb new technologies! This is really rare for a new enterprise that has not been established for even ten years.
.
"Thank you, President Merkel, for the compliment. I hope they won't be upset because they received your compliment." Fang Mingyuan said with a smile.
"Sometimes, I really wonder whether Airbus is cultivating a strong competitor for ourselves in the future." Merkel said to Fang Mingyuan in a low voice.
"After all, a strong opponent in the future is still in the future. Maybe there will be one, maybe there won't be one, but your Airbus company now has a very strong opponent. You need to go all out to deal with it and unite the forces that can be united." Fang Mingyuan
He replied calmly, "I remember His Holiness once said that after I die, even if it floods the sky."
Merkel looked at Fang Mingyuan and said with a wry smile: "Fang, you are really honest."
"A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier! Do you think I am a person who is willing to be mediocre? Besides, we are all smart people and we can cooperate happily, so why should we be secretive?" Fang Mingyuan spread his hands and said, "As for ten
Things that will happen twenty years from now, when the time comes, there will naturally be people who should worry about it, are you right?"
Merkel shook his head speechlessly. It is indeed as Fang Mingyuan said. Airbus does not have many choices now. If they want to compete with Boeing in all aspects, it is indeed as Fang Mingyuan said. They must devote themselves wholeheartedly.
In order to enter, we must attract those forces that can be attracted. The Chinese market is undoubtedly a key market for the competition between the two major companies, and Qinxi Aviation Manufacturing Group and Fang Family have an influence that cannot be ignored. Therefore, even if Airbus clearly
Knowing that Qinxi Aviation Manufacturing Group may become a new challenger in the future, we can only continue to cooperate at this time. Because Airbus does not cooperate, then Qinxi Aviation Manufacturing Group may become closer and closer to Boeing, and Boeing
The company can also use Qinxi Aviation Manufacturing Group to continuously lower the production costs of its own aircraft, so that it can have more extra profits to compete with Airbus. The competition between the two companies can now be said to have entered a white-hot stage.
They will not let go of every customer and potential customer. Naturally, the two major companies will not let go of the Chinese market and big customers like Kowloon Airlines. Although Qinxi Aviation Manufacturing Group can be regarded as a potential competitor.
, but considering its potential influence on Kowloon Airlines and many airlines in mainland China. Whether it is Airbus or Boeing, no one is willing to push it into the other side's camp, even if it cannot pull it into their own camp.
In the camp of Airbus, we must also ensure that it is neutral - if it does not help, at least it will not cause trouble. Moreover, Merkel also thought that she is not a shareholder of Airbus, but just a paid manager.
It’s really not a mistake to worry about what will happen ten years from now.
"Okay, Fang, you are a very sharp lobbyist, I have to say. What you said makes sense." Merkel said helplessly.
"Thank you for the compliment, it's an honor. But I'm still looking forward to the good news you bring." Fan Mingyuan said with a sly wink. Since Merkel, who took over as the president of Airbus not long ago, personally led the team here, Fan Mingyuan was very excited.
I feel like I can look forward to the good news I’m about to hear.
"The company has agreed to let you trial-produce the A320 wings. If the performance of your company's products can meet our company's standards, we will officially start cooperation in this area." Merkel said, "As for the A320 assembly line,
The company still needs to think about it again. As you know, Jincheng in your country is also actively pursuing this project and has given quite favorable conditions."
Fang Mingyuan waved his hand and said: "President Merkel, we are all smart people. It is meaningless to do this kind of small means. Although let's say, there is nothing high-tech about the assembly line, no matter it is placed
In that city in China, it is only a matter of time for it to operate normally. But I want to ask you, is it the land cost in Jincheng that is high, or is it the land cost in Fengyuan that is high? Is it that the labor expenditure in Jincheng is high?
Or is Fengyuan’s labor expenditure high? Are our aircraft assembly personnel at Qinxi Aviation Manufacturing Group more skilled, or is it better for you to recruit and train a group of workers in Jincheng? If there are any problems during the assembly process
, is it better to solve it locally as much as possible, or is it better for you to station engineers for a long time or send a few engineers to act as trapezes? Do you want this assembly line to be put into operation as soon as possible, or do you think it doesn't matter if it takes three to five years? Is it Jincheng?
Can we purchase your passenger planes, or can we purchase your passenger planes?"
Fan Mingyuan's series of questions did not give Merkel a chance to explain them one by one. They were "thrown" to him one after another. Although Fan Mingyuan spoke in English and Merkel heard every question clearly,
Such a storm of questions caused Merkel's brain to temporarily short-circuit. Just as she was thinking about the previous question, the next question came one after another. So after Fang Mingyuan finished speaking, Merkel was stunned.
It took a minute to sort out Fang Mingyuan's series of questions, and after sorting them out... Merkel found that it was useless. He really couldn't refute Fang Mingyuan.
"Fang, sometimes you really don't look like a Chinese!" Merkel said with a wry smile. In his impression, aren't Chinese people always more tactful when speaking? Even if they don't agree with the other person's words, or
Even if he thinks the other party is lying, he will not expose it to his face. How can he be as aggressive as Fang Mingyuan? Airbus indeed intends to use Jincheng as a bargaining chip to improve its status in cooperation with Qinxi Aviation Manufacturing Group, but just as Fang Mingyuan just said
As mentioned, Jincheng does not have an advantage compared with Qinxi Aviation Manufacturing Group in all aspects.
"Thank you for your compliment. I think modern Chinese people are too polite to others. If I may say so, I personally prefer the way Chinese people behaved during the Han and Tang Dynasties." Fang Mingyuan said with a smile. Although Merkel didn't understand.
What was the difference between the Chinese people in the Han and Tang dynasties and the modern Chinese people? But he was still speechless by Fang Mingyuan's answer - was he praising him just now?
"President Merkel, I don’t think I need to explain the advantages of Qinxi Aviation Manufacturing Group to your company. I don’t want to use this to belittle other competitors. I just remind your company that if your company cannot make a decision in time,
Then the land acquisition and construction work may be delayed for a long time. And by then, Qinxi Aviation Manufacturing Group may have to focus on the introduction and digestion of the Boeing 717 passenger aircraft production line." Fang Mingyuan said calmly.
"Are you threatening us?" Merkel wanted to blurt out, but he thought about it and endured it. Because he knew that Fang Mingyuan was probably telling the truth. If Boeing really decided to transfer all
As for the Boeing 717 passenger aircraft production line, this is indeed a big project for Qinxi Aviation Manufacturing Group and requires considerable effort. The A320 passenger plane assembly line and the Boeing 717 passenger plane production line are indeed not on the same level.
.
"Of course, I am personally very grateful to President Merkel for her support on these two projects. Kowloon Airlines recently intends to purchase a batch of aircraft that are expected to be delivered from the second half of 2008 to the first half of 2009.
The total number of passenger planes should not exceed twenty, haha..." Fang Mingyuan did not continue and gave Merkel a look that you know how to do.
Carrot and stick! Merkel yelled in her heart. Twenty passenger planes are not a big order, but considering the rapid rise of Kowloon Airlines in Hong Kong and China, Airbus has to consider whether it will
It will have an impact on other domestic airlines in China’s choice of passenger aircraft procurement targets. Although passenger aircraft procurement has always been a weapon for China to balance relations between the United States and Europe, China Xia also has to consider the needs of these airlines, and Kowloon Airlines has
As a private airline, its aircraft procurement is not controlled by Chinese officials.
Moreover, in Merkel's view, Kowloon Airlines and Qinxi Airlines, due to the existence of the Fang family, have now become non-aligned alliance companies. Qinxi Airlines transports passengers from second- and third-tier domestic cities to first-tier cities.
Airport, and then Kowloon Airlines will undertake long-distance and overseas route transportation. The cooperation between the two has become more and more tacit and skillful. Together with Qinxi Airport Group Company, it has firmly established itself in the Chinese aviation market.
Compared with their counterparts, since the three have formed a complementary situation and their respective division of labor is very clear, the future development prospects are naturally optimistic.
Since its establishment, Kowloon Airlines has been continuously expanding its fleet. Until now, Airbus alone has orders for nearly ten passenger aircraft. As for Boeing, it is estimated that the number of orders should be about this.
amount, and it actually wants to purchase again? (To be continued)
