Chapter 1091: Colin Flight
The Singapore International Air & Aerospace Show has entered its final day of dismantling.
Generally speaking, the last day of a major exhibition has the least number of visitors, so early this morning, almost all the large planes from the major airlines have flown away.
Some small airlines are trying to hold on until the afternoon, trying to attract one or two more customers.
It's a pity that this aerospace show went very badly, in this cold winter era of the aviation industry, there are no more big guys with money in their pockets to buy aircraft.
Now all the airlines in the world, the biggest task is to try to survive the winter and not let themselves die suddenly on this cold winter night.
And the airlines have no money, and the aircraft manufacturers are like leaves hanging from a dead tree, and they are only a few days away from the end.
In the China Pavilion, at a booth called "Colin Flight", several employees were sighing and leaving the exhibition.
"Kelin Flight" is a manufacturer that mainly focuses on aircraft maintenance and repair business, supplemented by the production of supporting parts, and then produces some low-end aviation and aerospace products.
Their exhibition area is not large, only a small booth is arranged, in addition to a large screen, some display boards, the products on display are only some large drones, model aircraft products, parts products, etc.
Because there has been no comparison of fist products, Colin Fly's days have not been very good, the company has been struggling for a long time on the line of life and death, not to mention, the company's core R & D personnel, but also by other companies poached a wave, the survival of the whole company is even worse.
They originally hoped that this space exhibition could bring them some orders, but after a few days of exhibition, there was no harvest, and not even a single hair was caught.
At the counter, a young man was removing the exhibition and said to the middle-aged man next to him: "Boss, what should we do next?"
The middle-aged man also frowned, not knowing what to say.
This middle-aged man is the boss of "Colin Flight", Lin Ke.
More than 20 years ago, a chance to start a business, he started from the production of some simple decorative plastic parts, entered the aerospace industry, gradually expanded the scale of production, and entered some domestic spare parts market.
The domestic aerospace industry is relatively weak, compared with the two large and two small, it is almost not worth mentioning, in this market, the domestic private enterprises are even more weak, completely the children of the stepmother.
For more than 20 years, Lin Ke has slowly raised "Colin Flight" by virtue of his skills, abilities and connections, and has also taken the express train of vigorously developing large aircraft in China, and has received government support and some low-interest loans.
Lin Ke thought that this would be an opportunity for him to show his ambitions, and make "Colin Flight" the largest private flying enterprise in China, some time ago, he gritted his teeth and upgraded his production line, and also undertook some supporting parts of Boeing at an almost loss-making price, in order to be able to enter Boeing's supply chain system, be accepted by other companies, and become a supplier of more flying companies.
But no one expected that the black swan would come so fast and so quickly, directly shattering all of Lin Ke's dreams, and also putting "Colin Flight" into life and death.
In the cold winter of airlines, no one buys airplanes, no one buys airplanes, no one wants to produce airplanes, no one wants to produce airplanes, which means that there is no need for supporting manufacturers.
Bank loans have to be repaid with interest every month, production lines are depreciating every minute, workers are paid every day, and orders are gone.
Although Colin Flight is not big, but the aerospace industry is originally a place where there is no small scale enterprise, although Colin Flight is a small shrimp in this industry, but the total assets are about two or three billion.
At such a time, no investor will reinvest in flying enterprises, and no matter how many assets they have, they will just sit back and tear down the east wall to make up the west wall.
If it goes on like this, Colin Flying really won't be able to hold on.
This air show is already one of the last chances for Colin to fly.
Although they know that there is little hope, whether they can receive orders at the air show is the basis for whether they can sustain it.
It's a pity that in this era, even the super big manufacturers can't receive any orders, let alone them.
Hearing the inquiries of the boys under him, Lin Ke didn't say a word, just squatted next to him and smoked a cigarette.
Originally, smoking was not allowed here, but now that the exhibition has been withdrawn, no one has come out to take care of it.
The exhibition was deserted, and the organizer's face was not good-looking, and now they can't muster their strength.
Nearby, several young people were whispering.
"Three of my classmates got into the industry together, and now the other two are buying cars...... I'm the only one left. ”
"Sell cars, cars aren't easy to sell, are they? ”
"That's at least just needed, besides, we can even sell planes, and selling cars isn't a piece of cake?"
"It's like you can really sell planes. ”
"Don't be so upset, okay......"
Several people complained to each other, sorting out the materials on the counter that had not been sent out, and after a while, a young man sighed and said, "I really have to ask my classmates if they want anyone else when I go back......
When will the cold winter of this line pass?
A few people were complaining, when they saw that on the other side, another person walked over with his hands behind his back, and greeted him with a smile from a distance: "Yo, the exhibition has been withdrawn!"
"Mr. Wang!"
"Mr. Wang!"
A few people said hello in a mess.
This Mr. Wang, they have met eight times if not ten times.
From the very beginning of the exhibition, he walked around here, didn't buy anything, asked east and west, and was familiar with many people.
Unexpectedly, now that they have been dismantled, they haven't left yet.
Wang Yida responded with a smile, walked to Lin Ke, who was squatting there and smoking, and said with a smile: "What is Mr. Lin's plan next?"
"What are you going to do?" Lin Ke was so disheartened that he didn't even bother to raise his head, and the heavy smoke spewed out in one mouth, choking to death.
What else can be planned?
Let's go back and lie flat.
"Didn't Mr. Lin think about selling Colin or bringing in a big investor?" asked Wang Yida.
In fact, this Colin flight is a more suitable company that Wang Yida has inspected after wandering around for so many days.
"Sell it? Who's going to buy it?
At this time, the flying company can't even sell it!
Who is here to buy it at this time! Stupid?
Wang Yida smiled, and just wanted to say, yes, I'll buy it.
Then, I heard a few young men next to me suddenly scream "wow", and then hurriedly ran over and threw the mobile phone in front of Lin Ke.
"Mr. Lin, Mr. Lin, look! The Korean Airshow is ahead of schedule!"
"What?" Lin Ke's eyes widened suddenly.
In previous years, the Korea Airshow was held in October, why was it advanced?
