Resource Tycoon Reborn

Although Guo Qingshan wanted to "occupy" Fang Mingyuan until the ceremony started, even if he was chatting casually, Guo Qingshan felt that he would often hear some valuable thoughts and ideas from Fang Mingyuan. At first glance, but those in China

Officials will take his status into consideration, but gringos do not care. The arrival of Boeing Director Motie Yunus and GE Capital Aviation Services President Gilchrist forced even Guo Qingshan to

Fang Mingyuan "gave in".

"Fang, congratulations!" Motayunas said with a smile on his face. Qinxi Aviation Manufacturing Group actually successfully manufactured the Boeing 717 passenger aircraft in Fengyuan in such a short period of time, but it really made everyone in Boeing Company unhappy.

Many people were amazed by it. This also made him, who was most familiar with Fang Mingyuan, feel that his face was brighter. Whether in China or the United States, people always admire the strong. It was also a glory that he could become a friend of the strong.

"Thank you, this is the result of our sincere cooperation." Fang Mingyuan smiled, "Of course, I also hope that it can become the result of our three parties' sincere cooperation."

Gilchrist laughed "haha" twice, and then said: "Fang, I also hope that it can become the next purchased product of our GE Capital Aviation Services Company, but the board of directors wants to take a look first. Anyway, at the moment

"The Boeing 717 production capacity of your Qinxi Aviation Manufacturing Group is far from being fully released." The cooperation between GE Financial Aviation Services and Qinxi Aviation Manufacturing Group has been quite pleasant in the past few years, Qinxi said.

The md9o passenger aircraft produced by the Aviation Manufacturing Group, promoted by GE Financial Aviation Services, has achieved fairly good leasing results with airlines around the world that are accustomed to using McDonnell Douglas series passenger aircraft, although it cannot be compared with

Compared with Boeing and Airbus, this result is already very good for an emerging aircraft manufacturer.

"I am very confident about the future of the md95 passenger aircraft. As a regional airliner, it is undoubtedly excellent." Fang Mingyuan said categorically, "Of course mainline aircraft are important. But regional airliners are also indispensable. Just like

Just like the human body, those arteries and veins are important, but without capillaries, people are still dead!" Fang Mingyuan is not just talking nonsense here. In his opinion, although large trunk line aircraft as a whole have a large transportation volume, passengers

It has many advantages such as low average transportation cost and long flight range. But it also has many disadvantages. For example, in order to meet the takeoff and landing of large trunk line aircraft, it is necessary to build a hub-type large airport with sufficient passenger flow and high-quality routes.

These conditions cannot be met by just any city. However, the number of low-level airports is dozens of times that of large hub airports. China has a vast territory and a large population. In addition to first-tier cities and core cities in each province, there will be

There are many civil airports under construction, but it is impossible for all of these airports to be built into high-level airports that can take off and land large aircraft. That would be a terrible waste, so regional passenger aircraft like the md95 have a place to play.

"Then I will wait with full anticipation." Gilchrist said with a smile, "As long as more than three airlines besides Qinxi Airlines order more than forty aircraft, GE Financial Aviation Services

How about the company start purchasing it? Are you confident?"

Fang Mingyuan stretched out his hand, looked at Gilchrist and said, "Then we have an agreement!" The two high-fived heavily, which was regarded as an agreement.

Motyjunas and Gilchrist were both in good moods, chatting casually with Fang Mingyuan about some interesting things about the global aviation industry.

"Fang. Did you read the IATA report a few days ago? The global aviation industry only lost less than US$600 million in 2006, which can be said to be the lowest loss in two thousand years." Motayo.

Nass said with a smile. Since two thousand years ago, the global aviation industry has suffered from counter-terrorism, rising oil prices, devaluation of the US dollar, rapid rise in labor costs and other factors. It can be said that there has never been a chance to recover, although some airlines still remain

It has a good profit margin, but from the perspective of the entire industry, it is an outright loss-making industry.

"Haha, at the beginning of last year, it was predicted that the global aviation industry would lose US$7.7 billion in 2006." Gilchrist laughed. "IATA also predicted that this year, it is likely to enter the new century.

Since then, the global aviation industry has had the most profitable year, with a profit of more than US$2 billion." The global aviation industry has begun to make profits, and aircraft manufacturers and aircraft leasing companies like GE Capital Aviation Services will earn more from it.

Much profit.

Fang Mingyuan smiled. Although he wanted to tell these two people, it was too early to be happy now. Although the global air transport industry may have a good life in 2007, once the subprime mortgage crisis breaks out, it will endanger the development of the global economy.

The global aviation industry will also inevitably be hit hard. I am afraid that many airlines will face bankruptcy and a large number of aircraft orders will be canceled or postponed. However, he does not want to waste time explaining why he believes that the economic crisis is imminent unless he can get rid of it.

Get greater benefits.

"Yes, both aircraft manufacturers and lessors can obtain huge profits from it, but the vast majority of airlines can only obtain negligible income. Those poor profit margins are enough to make people think that the air transport industry is out-and-out.

Sunset Industry." Fang Mingyuan sighed and said, "You have worked hard for a year, but you don't have much money in your hands in the end. Can you two understand that feeling?"

Motyjunas and Gilchrist both laughed. Fang Mingyuan was indeed right. The annual operating income of the global air transport industry is hundreds of billions of dollars, but the profit income is actually negative, and even those with good operations

From the perspective of profit margin, the performance of excellent airlines can only be said to be unsatisfactory. Compared with the electronic industry, IT industry, game industry, and entertainment industry, it is far behind. Don't talk about IT companies like Microsoft and Intel.

For large industrial companies, including entertainment companies like Hong Kong's Kumho Film Group, their annual profit margins are much higher than those in the air transport industry. On the other hand, aircraft manufacturers and lessors have relatively stable profit margins every year.

"Fang, please stop complaining. I think most airlines are envious of Qinxi Airlines. There are not many airlines like it with many reliable allies in the world," Gilchrist said.

.

"Well, I wholeheartedly agree with Mr. Gilchrist's point of view." Motiejunas also smiled and chimed in.

"By the way, Fang. You also own an oil company. What do you think of the future oil price trend?" Gilchrist asked.

"In the next few years, oil should be on an overall upward trend, but I personally think that your question should be asked to the Federal Reserve. When will they stop devaluing the U.S. dollar, the international market price of oil will naturally stabilize or even

In reverse." Fang Mingyuan shrugged.

"If oil prices continue to rise like this, the recovery of the global aviation industry will still be difficult." Motyyunas sighed. Fuel costs have become the most troublesome cost expenditure item for air transport companies, and its rise is difficult to achieve.

expected.

"Hasn't General Electric Aircraft Company made any new breakthroughs in fuel-saving technology?" Fang Mingyuan asked Gilchrist, "You are also a director of General Electric Group, don't tell me that you know nothing."

"Continuously reducing the fuel consumption rate of engines is a goal that engine designers and users have always pursued. We, the General Electric Group, have been tirelessly pursuing the limit, and spend more than one billion on research and development on engine technology every year.

US dollars. But breakthrough fuel-saving technology is not a Toyota car on the street. You can find one casually." Gilchrist said, "But I can guarantee that once the right motivation appears, it will definitely happen.

We will notify you as soon as possible."

"Haha, I just want to say that if your General Electric Aircraft Engine Company can come up with an engine that can save 10% of fuel, you will receive orders like snowflakes." Fang Mingyuan said.

"Fang, I heard that you booked eight A38O passenger planes with Airbus?" Motyjunas asked "casually".

"Well, it won't be delivered until 2013." Fang Mingyuan nodded. This is not a secret, and Airbus even uses it to promote it to the outside world.

"So what do you think of our Boeing Company's 787 aircraft?" Motyjunas stopped and asked, "This summer, a 787 aircraft will be rolled off the assembly line at the Boeing headquarters in Seattle. On behalf of our company's board of directors, I invite you

Go and watch the ceremony."

"I believe the Boeing 787 will be a good passenger aircraft. If I have time, I would be very happy to attend its roll-off ceremony." Fang Mingyuan said, "I know you want to ask next, when will Kowloon Airlines

You will purchase it, right?" Motayunas smiled and said nothing, acquiescing.

"As far as I know, in 2005, your country's aviation equipment import and export company signed a framework agreement to purchase 60 Boeing 787 aircraft from Boeing on behalf of six Chinese airlines." Gilchrist said aside.

He smiled and said, "I'm also curious as to why you don't seem to be very interested in it." Of course he would not let such a favor go by.

"Okay, since you have asked here, let me make it clear. I can book ten Boeing 787 passenger planes on behalf of Kowloon Airlines. When is your delivery time?" Fang Mingyuan asked Moteyunas.

"It should be the end of 2011. I need to confirm the specific time with the relevant departments of the company." Motayunas was delighted. With ten Boeing 787 passenger planes, this trip to Fengyuan was so worth it.

"Then I ask that your delivery time be from the beginning of 2016 to the end of 2017, and all ten passenger aircraft will be delivered." Fang Mingyuan said.

"2016!" Motiejunas shouted in surprise, "Why? Why so late?" Gilchrist also looked surprised.

"Because I think it will take a long time to get used to the new technology, and problems will arise. I have a hunch that its flight will not be smooth, and it will probably not go according to your original plan."

Fang Mingyuan spread his hands and said, "Compared to being able to use it as quickly as possible, I prefer safety and less trouble." Although Fang Mingyuan didn't care much about the aircraft manufacturing industry in his previous life, as a semi-otaku netizen, he just doesn't care.

He had seen a lot of news about the Boeing 787 passenger plane, although there were no major accidents after it was delivered for use, various minor problems continued. And if he remembered correctly, the flight of the 787 passenger plane was full of difficulties and was repeatedly postponed.

This made the airlines that had booked the 787 passenger aircraft very dissatisfied, and some airlines even wanted to cancel the order. Motiejunas's face was a little ugly. He knew that the 787 passenger plane was scheduled to fly at the end of this year.

"You may think this is a bad saying, but there is an old saying in our country that has been passed down for thousands of years. The medicine may be bitter and difficult to drink, but it is good for the condition. Most of the language that teaches people to be kind is not very pleasant.

But it will help people correct their shortcomings." Fang Mingyuan patted Motayunas on the shoulder and said, "If you hadn't asked me, I actually didn't want to say it."

Gilchrist nodded and said: "Fang, I admire the wisdom of the ancients of your country very vividly. Director Motayunas, I don't think you should be unhappy about Fang's words at all. If Fang doesn't take you as a

My friend, I won’t say these words to you. In any case, Fang has given you an order for ten passenger planes. Haha, think about Airbus. Their A38o passenger plane has come to this day with stumbling steps.

They started researching it in 1996."

Motyjunas's face softened. It was indeed as Gilchrist said. Airbus had started developing the A38O passenger aircraft in 1996, while Boeing only started developing the 787 in 2004.

The A38O passenger plane only started flying in the middle of last year, and they will fly it at the end of this year. Compared with Airbus, it is already very smooth.

Moreover, he and Fang Mingyuan didn't just meet each other. Naturally, he knew that Fang Mingyuan had shown a very sharp vision on many occasions and had an excellent grasp of the development prospects of many industries. Since he said it in front of himself and Gilchrist,

Such words are definitely not said casually. (To be continued.)
