Neither crushed the competitors, but also did not complete the breakthrough in the market, a good hand of cards was played poorly, such a situation Zodo naturally knows, although this does not have much impact on his career in Indonesia.

After all, the cards in his hand are good, but Thailand is the king of the bomb, even if Zodo is experienced, no matter how high the means are, he can't withstand the explosion of the king bomb.

As for the external sales of the -235 regional airliner, Zodo has no need to worry, and it is understandable that he has not completed the work of so many officials before him, and he has just taken over less than two months as a vice president of trust.

So if you want to talk about the impact, but in terms of the interests of many people, there is really not much, but there is a thing called face that is really lost.

Coupled with the Royal Thai Aerospace competitor's presence at the air show with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Thailand personally flying the plane, as well as the unique fly-by-wire system and subsequent media publicity, the TM-9 aircraft has completely established itself.

The TM-9 aircraft stands, and the Royal Thai Aerospace has a heel, which Indonesian Aerospace does not want to see in any case, and it is also the biggest lever for Zodo's political enemies in Indonesia to attack him in the future.

If Zodo doesn't have any ambition in the future, it's just that this black fat man is not too ambitious, and he still wants to transfer to the Indonesian ruling authorities as a minister or other executive, so he naturally has to think about it in the long run.

Fortunately, Royal Thai Aerospace is half a pound and eight taels with them Indonesian Aerospace in terms of sales, in addition to the glimpse of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Thailand, in the end it is Royal Thai Airlines that has become the largest buyer.

Because Thailand can absorb so much at most, just as Indonesia can only digest more than 40 - 235 regional airliners.

It's all state-controlled enterprises or organizations that play left-handed and right-handed, which looks very exciting, but in fact it is unprofitable, and it is useless.

So although Zodo did not crush the Royal Thai Aerospace, both are the same scum in the market, which makes Zodo feel a lot more relieved, even if domestic political enemies use the Royal Thai Aerospace to attack him, Zodo can also make a strong rebuttal in this regard.

Of course, it would be better if the market performance of Royal Thai Aerospace could be publicized and tied to death, so after a few days of tantrums, Zodo finally calmed down, and then found the editor-in-chief of a Singapore media who was going to be hospitalized in the east, and after throwing a sum of money, he hoped that the mouthpiece he funded could make a fuss in this regard.

As the so-called taking people's money and eliminating disasters for others, the editor-in-chief of the media is very neat, and several insider articles about the Royal Thai Aerospace deal have really made a lot of splashes, and even affected the negotiations of Singapore's Temasek to take a stake in the Royal Thai Aerospace Corporation.

So the editor-in-chief came to Zodo today to ask for credit, and Zodo naturally welcomed him warmly, not only booking the most sumptuous banquet at the Shangri-La Hotel, but also asking for a bottle of 82-year-old Lafite.

At this moment, Zodo got up very politely and poured wine for the editor-in-chief in person: "Thank you so much this time, if our Indonesian aerospace does not have the support of your newspaper, we may have to plant a big heel this time." ”

"Mr. Zodor, where is this, we have been partners with your company for more than ten years, and we will naturally do our best to help you if you are in trouble. ”

The editor-in-chief's words are called righteous words, as if he may stick a knife in his friend's ribs at any time, but in fact, if he hadn't thrown money at any cost, this knife might have been inserted in someone's body.

Of course, there is no need to put this kind of thing on the table that both parties know, so the two of them ate lobsters and drank Lafite, and talked for a while.

The editor-in-chief smiled slightly when he heard this, revealing a strong self-confidence, obviously waiting for Zodo to ask this sentence: "It's very simple, report truthfully." ”

"Oh?" Zodo was a little surprised: "How do you report truthfully?"

"Of course, the Royal Thai Aerospace will price the TM-9, and we will report it. The editor-in-chief lifted the wine glass and shook it, his smile became more and more intense, and then he took a sip, squinted his eyes and tasted the pure beauty of Lafite, and said with a more and more intense smile: "You may not know that Royal Thai Aerospace gives Royal Thai Airlines a preferential price for the TM-9, with an average of $3 million per aircraft, while the normal price they give is $5 million per aircraft."

This is still the lowest configuration, and if you want to reach the pure high-end private business jet of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Thailand, the price will have to soar to $8 million. There are four levels from $5 million to $8 million, in other words, if you want a passable TM-9, you need more than $6 million. ”

As he spoke, the editor-in-chief slowly put down the wine glass in his hand and raised his eyes to look at Zodo: "More than 6 million US dollars, you can almost buy a good American-made second-hand aircraft, ruthlessly increase the price, the new American-made small business jets can also be started, compared with the mature and reliable in the United States, the new TM-9 is a level worse in stability after all, Mr. Zodo, you say...... Royal Thai Aerospace sales policymakers are not stupid. ”

"It's not just stupid, but stupid to the point of home, a small plane with a take-off weight of less than 5 tons, buy 5 million to 8 million, or dollars, they really want money crazy, who will buy it? I guess even fools will turn around and leave when they hear this price. ”

Hearing this, Zodo was stunned for a moment, and immediately laughed, no wonder Zodo is like this, it is really the editor-in-chief who is right, TM-9 is too expensive to buy, you must know that in the world, the price of the same type of aircraft is only 5 million US dollars, but the Royal Thai Aerospace is 8 million US dollars, where is this to buy things, it is simply digging your own grave.

No one's money is blown by the wind, who will buy it, unless that guy's head is pumped, he will place an order for Royal Thai Aerospace.

So Zodo laughed and said: "Indeed, you just write according to the real offer, don't worry about advertising them, I believe that people who see this report will think that Royal Thai Aerospace is crazy about money." ”

"I have already written the manuscript and it will be published tomorrow morning, rest assured, this wave will definitely make the popularity of Royal Thai Aerospace go up again. The editor-in-chief smiled and raised his glass again, and Zodor smiled more and more happily, like a tanned Maitreya Buddha, who raised his glass to clink glasses with the editor-in-chief to celebrate.

But before the two of them knocked their wine glasses together, one of Zodo's assistants ran in in a panic, and said a word in Dodo's ear, Zodo's pupils widened violently, and the hand holding the wine glass trembled subconsciously, and fell to the ground with a snap, but Zodo didn't care about this, and looked at his assistant with a shocked face: "What did you say? Toyota ordered six TM-9s for 50 million dollars?"
