Wealth

The construction of the Panshi airport has received the support of the central government. In addition to funds, the central government provides all other resources needed, including design talents, a list of units with relevant construction qualifications, unblocked route management, and the surrounding areas. The problem of coordination between the airports is very complicated.

The Ministry of Construction also sent some experts to assist the Panshi City Government to deal with matters related to the construction of the airport. Of course, the brain-handicapped person who caused the dispute must not be used. The Civil Aviation Administration has also sent a team of experts here, all of whom have extensive experience in airport construction and airport management. They not only have to put forward more detailed suggestions on the airport planning, but also examine the local conditions in Panshi. How can we build a large airport most reasonably?

Since there needs to be such a large project here, then there needs to be a person who is quite high in the administrative level to take the command. Regarding this issue, naturally there are many people who hope to find this position, tens of billions. The scale of investment, which has great opportunities and oil and water.

However, there is also a very important problem. The construction funds are not allocated by the state as in the past, but are provided entirely by private individuals. Therefore, it is difficult to make a choice as the commander-in-chief. Regarding people outside the system, the officials are not very binding, and the upper-level who knows the inside story understands the whole story and feels that the decision-making power should be returned to the Panshi City government. That is to let Fan Hyung be the commander-in-chief himself.

Of course, a cadre at the main hall level is not enough to command so many aspects of manpower. Therefore, the Central Organization Department issued a notice of appointment and dismissal of cadres based on the results of the survey and the opinions of the upper-level officials, directly adjusting Fan Heng's administrative level from the departmental level to the ministerial level, which is considered an exceptional promotion. While in charge of Panshi Day's work, he should also focus on the construction of Panshi Airport. At the same time, he was still named Wangtian Provincial Party Committee Deputy Secretary. It's just not in charge of party affairs in the province, but focusing on the construction of Panshi Airport, which is a very important construction project even in China.

"Oh, I finally became a ministerial leader." Fan Wubing just nodded after hearing his father talk about it, and didn't react much. "It's just that this ministerial leader is as I imagined , There is still a little gap."

"What do you want?" Fan Heng asked strangely.

"You're a ministerial level, it's a fake title. It's used to fill the front. Your actual job hasn't changed in the slightest. So, compared with other's decent ministerial level, of course, it's a bit unreasonable." Fan Wubing said to Fan Heng, "But if the Panshi Airport is completed, your ministerial level will have tangible political achievements. Even the general ministerial level will pale in comparison to you. That's the day of your early days. Fan Heng heard his son commenting on his position like buying cabbage here, and he said with a bit of dislike, "You kid, you just like to compare when you have nothing to do! What kind of person do you I am. Is it not clear that you are a son? I just want to do a little tangible thing, to be able to improve Panshi's economy and enable the people of Panshi to live a good life. This is the greatest comfort to me. As for those who are at the ministerial level and not at the ministerial level, they are really meaningless. Could it be said that if I am not a minister, you will not recognize me as an old man? "

"Uh, that won't be enough." Fan Wuyao laughed immediately, "You just quit your job, and I have nothing to complain about. Your son has money. It's enough to support you."

The father and son laughed and talked for a while. Speaking of the problem of building an airport.

Up to now, there are about 100 civil airports in the mainland. Some of these large airports are already in a state of overloaded operations, and the construction of new large airports is imperative. The most troublesome thing is naturally the source of construction funds. Regarding this point, it is generally solved in three aspects, that is, local financing. For part of the funds, the central government allocates part of the funds, and the Civil Aviation Administration of China allocates part of the funds.

The part of the funds allocated by the Civil Aviation Administration is raised from the airport construction fees collected by the airports currently in operation. It can be regarded as taken from the airport and used for the airport. Calculated by the airport construction fee, the airport construction fee collected by the Civil Aviation Administration of China from each airport every year is a very impressive figure.

According to the joint document of the Civil Aviation Administration of China and the Ministry of Finance, all income from airport construction fees goes to the central treasury and returns to the finance departments of the provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the Central Government according to a certain percentage, and is earmarked for local airport construction and operating subsidies, and the rest is included in the central finance. Budget management, used to support airport construction. But in fact, this part of the returned funds has not really been used as a special fund, but has become a dividend between the Civil Aviation Administration and the airport.

This also resulted in passengers not getting the corresponding return after paying the expensive airport construction fee. Since the airport construction fee is dedicated to airport construction, passengers who have spent the money should be able to enjoy various services at low prices. But the current situation is that there are generally high service charges, ridiculously high shopping prices, and even strange things such as asking for directions and charging in airports across the country. The existence of various unreasonable phenomena, of course, makes passengers very unconvinced about the payment of this fee.

"Take this as an example. I think even if we build an airport, we need to be different from other state-owned airports in terms of management, otherwise it will not be a large airport that meets or exceeds the international standard. Under a system like airport construction fees What has been formed should be abolished first.” Fan Wubing cited this example to explain to his father Fan Heng how private airports should be different from state-owned airports.

Even if the Panshi City Government controls 51% of Panshi Airport’s equity, this will not be possible if the major shareholders do not cooperate. As a privately-owned airport, the Panshi City Government can only take ownership of it. Large proportion of shares. Not being able to compete with major shareholders for the right to operate is the only way to ensure that Panshi Airport maintains high efficiency, vitality and development after it is built.

"This matter is too much involved. You can come up with a more detailed plan, indicate that it is a requirement of the capital, and then hand it over to make the leaders headache. Anyway, it is your consumption, what can't you say?" Fan Heng was right. I deeply agree with this, and do not think this is an unreasonable requirement. "The big tone now is reform and opening up, so the mind must first be emancipated. Actions must also keep up, as long as it is good for local economic development, and If it does not affect the development of the surrounding areas, there will be no major resistance. What's more, Vice Premier Li Jidong is not the only one who is concerned about the construction of Panshi Airport this time."

However, even though Fan Heng knew that his son was super rich, he still couldn't understand one thing. Although there is no large airport around Panshi, there is not enough passenger flow. If Fan Wuyao builds a small airport, or can guarantee the profitability to maintain the operation of the airport, but does such a big airport project all at once, is it really a bit too ambitious?

Although at the joint office meeting, he refuted the opinion of the expert from the Ministry of Construction, but from the bottom of his heart, he had no idea. God knows if the airport is built, can there be so much passenger flow? If there is no one to use, it would be a tragic death!

In terms of runway scale alone. The construction goal of Panshi Airport is very high. If you know that a 2,200-meter-long runway is enough to take off and land large aircraft such as Boeing 767s, Fan Wuyao set the length of the runway to 4,200 meters. This has to make people think that he is burning money.

For the airport construction requirements of ordinary cities, as long as the runway reaches the level, it can meet the requirements for lifting Boeing 737 passenger planes and below, and the 4D level runway can meet the safety of Airbus 300, Boeing 767, McDonnell Douglas 82 and below. Take off and land. Therefore, the general urban airport, even considering the needs of future urban expansion and the potential upgrade capability requirements of the airport, are basically designed according to the grade runway. And reserve space for 4D-class runway upgrades.

And high-standard construction like Panshi Airport. It has exceeded the construction requirements for the 4E-class runway. You must know that the runway of the Hong Kong International Airport, which is now under construction, is also of the 4E-class runway. The length is only 3,800 meters, and the width is only 60 meters, which is far less than the 4,200 meters long and 70 meters wide super runway construction requirements of Panshi Airport today.

Regarding this point, Fan Wuyao naturally has his own overall plan. Panshi is different from Hong Kong and Shanghai. It is the biggest investment in the construction of the airport. The issue of land use fees does not need to be considered separately, because the northern part of Panshi is the largest investment. Basically, it is a wasteland with only sporadic households. The cost of relocation is very small and can be ignored. As expected, the cost of land must be included in their shareholding ratio based on municipal investment.

Since there is no need to consider the investment in land, it is always good to occupy a larger area. As Panshi develops in the future, it will be more difficult to occupy land free of charge.

Another point is that most of the runways in ordinary cities in the mainland are about 45 meters wide. Runways with a width of 60 meters are rare. If there is a large passenger aircraft like Airbus A380 in the future, such a runway is absolutely absolute. Those unable to take off and land unless another parallel runway is built.

Airbus A380 requires a runway length of about 3,600 meters and a width of 75 meters. The length of the runway at Panshi Airport is far more than this figure. Although the width is only designed for 70 meters, plus seven points on both sides The five-meter guide shoulder reaches 85 meters, which is enough to meet the take-off and landing requirements of the Airbus A380.

Fan Wubing meant that only a single runway should meet the requirements of large passenger aircraft taking off and landing, and he made a decision after careful consideration of the size of the airport.

According to what he learned before his rebirth, the operating efficiency of small and medium-sized airports was not very good, and the losses were relatively serious. Just like the seven airports in Jiangsu Province at that time, except for the meager profit operation of Nanjing Lukou Airport, the rest Six of them are losing money. Compared with large airports, small and medium airports are basically in a cloud of misery.

On the one hand, it is the huge investment in airport construction. On the other hand, it is the reality that small and medium airports generally lose money. Any new airport on the ground has to face doubts about its economic benefits. After all, there are many vivid negative teaching materials in reality. For example, Nantong Xingdong Airport is an example that has been repeatedly mentioned.

In the 1980s, the Nantong Municipal Government's application for the construction of an airport was approved by the State Council. The airport is located in Xingdong Town, Tongzhou City, away from the urban area of ​​Nantong, so it is called Xingdong Airport. It started construction in 1990 and made its maiden flight on New Year's Day in 1990.

After the airport was built in Nantong, the locals once rejoiced, saying that Nantong, Nantong, is no longer difficult to get through. but in fact. Nantong Airport has been in a loss-making situation since its inauguration, and the airport has accumulated losses of over 100 million yuan.

The reason for the loss is obvious. There are too few routes and flights. There are only two routes that operate stably from Nantong to Beijing and Guangzhou, with seven and five flights a week, which are also the lifeline of Nantong Airport. According to the scale of Nantong Airport, only thirty-two flights per week can reach the break-even point. However, it is difficult to open air routes, especially in the mid to late 1990s, when small airports were built in various places, the competition became fiercer. Under fierce market competition. Whether or not to make money is the primary consideration for airlines to open routes and flights. In addition, the competition from the surrounding Wuxi Shuofang Airport and Changzhou Benniu Airport also makes it difficult for Xingdong Airport to cope. Fan Wubing took this as a lesson and would naturally not repeat the same mistakes. With his strong financial advantage and the innate advantage of not having large civil airports in the central provinces and regions, he made up his mind to start a large airport project. In his words, that is If you want to play, you have to play a big one. Otherwise, where does Lao Tzu's money go?

A large airport like Pudong Airport has an average daily flight number of about 560. This is still the data after being diverted by other airports in Shanghai, and its revenue is considerable. Coupled with some ancillary income, it is very profitable, and the advantage of Panshi to build a large airport is far greater than that of Pudong Airport. It can basically form a regional monopoly. Such a good market prospect cannot be let go. .

Generally speaking, airport income can be divided into two categories: aviation income and non-aeronautical income. The income of domestic airports mainly depends on aviation income. In particular, take off and landing fees and passenger transit fees are the main ones. In this case. Obviously, the advantages of large airports are much greater, not only with more routes. There are many flights, and after the completion of a large airport, there is no possibility that there will be a small and medium-sized airport nearby, which can form a dominant situation. This is also an important reason why Fan Wuyao is determined to invest.

Domestic airports have weak market awareness and are mainly in the traditional operation mode, and they are still lagging behind in airport commercial development. The reason why there is such a huge gap in non-aeronautical business is not the lack of demand at domestic airports. The source of the serious backwardness of domestic airport commercial development lies in the fact that domestic airports have long been under strict government control and are not independently operated commercial entities, but are closer to a government agency. The airport authorities have implemented exclusive monopolies for many services, including airport commerce, and their service awareness and market awareness are seriously insufficient.

Even the major airports including the three major hub airports rely more on geographical advantages and extended growth, that is, the increase in air traffic, while ignoring the commercial opportunities brought by the airport due to the agglomeration of people and logistics.

Therefore, Fan Wubing said to his father Fan Heng, “The air traffic of major domestic airports has long been among the top in the world. Airports gather a large number of high-end business travelers and consumers, and driven by consumption upgrades, China will gradually grow into the world’s most important luxury. One of the consumer countries of goods. In addition to the simple travel needs, airport passengers also have the needs of shopping, catering, business and leisure in the airport. In addition, the airport also gathers a large number of high value-added goods, in order to improve efficiency and save logistics costs. Companies have the need to handle and process cargo near the airport, which is also a key issue that our airport needs to consider. As different airlines take off and land at the airport, aircraft maintenance, aviation catering, and even aircraft cleaning and water filling needs arise. It has also become a growth point for the airport business."

Fan Wubing also knows this point. A friend of his before his rebirth was a seafood dumpling. This thing was basically transported by plane. As a result, due to weather conditions, the flight was canceled. In the absence of adapting to the living environment, seafood was dead and abrupt, and naturally suffered heavy losses. Assuming that the airport was able to meet these requirements at that time, I believe the other party would not care about spending a little more money.

Only by providing good services to the needs of customers can we ensure the steady growth of operating income. Fan Wuyi’s thinking is of course ahead of everyone. He has even considered that there should be an increase in airport ancillary facilities. The operation and management of ground handling, terminal building, food, advertising, buses, real estate, etc., increase the source of non-aeronautical business income.

"What are your specific plans, please tell me something to dad?" Fan Heng was obviously very interested. He felt that his son's head was full of fantastic ideas, even more wonderful than Aladdin's magic lamp.

Fan Wubing was also interested in talking about it, and he told his father, "These are all advanced thinking. I will also tell my father. You'd better not talk to others first, otherwise it will leak us. It’s a trade secret, let others learn from it, and it’s a great loss!"

"I still know the priorities." Dad Fan Heng assured him conclusively.

"For example, we can build distinctive leisure, shopping, and entertainment centers in the airport terminal, implement public bidding, and transfer these commercial businesses to institutions with strong brand strength. Starting from price and service, we can break Domestic tourists shopping at the airport is the traditional idea of ​​being slaughtered. The main high-end shopping brand allows tourists to get a shopping experience with reasonable prices and first-class service here." Fan Wuyi waved his arm and said to his father Fan Heng, "We are at the airport. A special area for car sales, maintenance, and leasing can be built around to carry out the sales, maintenance and leasing business of various brand cars, which not only facilitates tourists, but also increases the airport’s revenue. It can also open up space for advertising and blank pages on the airport wall. , Trolleys and other public appliances, and the establishment of large-scale advertising rotating media outside the airport to increase income. You can also imitate the practice of foreign airports and make full use of the millions of square meters of open space around the airport to plant soilless lawns and seasonal flowers. Establish soilless lawn factories and flower industry bases, so that the limited land can give full play to economic benefits."

"As for the commercial business of the airport, why don't we do it ourselves? Can we still boost the local economy of Panshi?" Fan Heng agreed in principle to the question that Fan Wubing said. The only thing that is somewhat puzzled is why he Should these businesses be packaged out and handed over to other companies to operate?

"Dad, there is no way to make money. If you want to do it well, you must be the most professional!" After Fan Wuyi stated his point of view, he continued to elaborate, "We are located in the mainland, so we can also open up air cargo. Business, to bring in special products from other places, such as seafood, special fruits with short shelf life, electronic and communication products, etc.~www.wuxiaspot.com~ At the same time, we can also ship local special products, such as special products with short shelf life, Time-critical export products, etc. While meeting the increasingly diversified needs of passengers, cargo, and aircraft, the airport must also continue to strengthen this demand, making the airport an aviation city with complete commercial, leisure, and business needs."

"Listening to you, my enthusiasm is boiling!" Fan Heng looked forward to the bright prospects described by his son.

In the end, Fan Wuyao shook his fist and said, "Our ultimate goal is to build a Panshi economic circle centered on Panshi Airport. The airport is the center to develop aviation logistics, airport supporting services, airport-based high-tech industries, and business. Convention and exhibition industry, ecological recreation and leisure industry and modern urban agriculture. Through the operation of the above aspects, there is every reason to believe that Panshi Airport can greatly increase its profitability. Moreover, this will drive Panshi itself to become the central region of China. Cosmopolitan city!"

"According to what you said, I won't do anything for the governor, I'll just stay on the rock." Fan Heng said with a smile.

Fan Wubing also smiled, "If you are a deputy prime minister, you can still think about it. As for other things, I think it's really fine!"

"Hahahaha----" The father and son looked at each other and laughed.

Due to the problem of power maintenance, we have continued power outages. The second night of the evening depends on the situation. I hope to call earlier. After all, the environment of Internet cafes is really not suitable for codewords. Thank you for your monthly pass support, please vote for Xiaolang monthly pass if you have not yet voted for it! !
