Chapter 532 CN-235
Under normal circumstances, the flight display of the plane is very particular, in layman's terms, it is similar to a variety show, what time period is the most eye-catching, and how to get higher attention needs to be carefully considered.
Instead of the organizer arranging a schedule, according to the requirements of the headless flies to fly, in case the organizer arranges for you to lunch time, there are few people on the scene, what is the meaning of you flying?
You must know that the performance of the aircraft at the air show is not to be cool, but to show its performance as much as possible and gain the goodwill of potential buyers.
To put it bluntly, just like Paris and Milan Fashion Week, the purpose of the catwalk is to sell clothes, of course, some ghost animals have a crush on people, that's another matter.
The display of the aircraft follows the same principle.
Because of this, Zhuang Jianye was not at all interested in Lin Guanghua's bold idea, because all the advanced fighters on display on the first day were tough guy styles, and the TM-9 was mixed in it, and only the part was crushed.
Even if it is the next day, it is not suitable, because a series of large transport aircraft, trunk airliners, wide-body airliners and some regional airliners are on display on this day.
The small size of the TM-9 is mixed with the big guys such as Boeing 747, Boeing 767, Airbus 330, McDonnell Douglas MD-11, and C-5 Galaxy transport planes, and the audience can take a glance at the TM-9, and don't expect any attention at all.
Therefore, Zhuang Jianye finally put TM-9 at 2:15 p.m. on the third day through Alondo's inside information.
The main reason for this arrangement is that the regional airliner show in the morning is basically completed, and in the afternoon all small aircraft under ten tons, which are in the same class as the TM-9.
Secondly, before the TM-9, the American Hawker "King Air" 200 and the British Aerospace "Jet Stream" 31 were two twin-engine turboprop aircraft, with these two aircraft aircraft as the base, the TM-9 will have a very obvious contrast after the appearance, which will help to gain higher attention from potential buyers.
But now Indonesian Aerospace's -235 actually inserted a bar, put the display in front of TM-9, and wanted to divide TM-9's attention, Zhuang Jianye's face became a little strange when he heard it, I really don't know if the idiom and allusion just now is really smart or stupid, a light military transport aircraft derived from a regional airliner, a high-performance small general aircraft, the two are not comparable at all.
This is like a children's clothing press conference, suddenly came to a macho model wearing a suit with floral pants and running up on a slipper, even if it is attracting attention, the target customer wants children's clothing, not buying men's clothing, in addition to harvesting a bunch of infamy such as a broken head, it is estimated that he will not get anything.
Alondo knew that Zhuang Jianye had thought so much in a flash, seeing that Zhuang Jianye's expression suddenly changed, thinking that this Chinese partner was the same as himself, he was very angry at Zuoduo's tricks, so he pursed his lips and said: "After dinner, I will go to the organizer and take a picture of our plane performance in front of Indonesian Airlines' -235, although Indonesian Airlines has a stake in Singapore Temasek, but our Thai attitude, Singapore cannot not pay attention to it, and it is still possible to adjust the display order." ”
As he spoke, he was about to leave, but Zhuang Jianye hurriedly stopped: "Mr. Alondo, don't worry, if Indonesian Aerospace wants to show it in front, let them show it." ”
"This ......"
Alondo, who stopped, was a little confused, not knowing what Zhuang Jianye meant, but Zhuang Jianye smiled and asked rhetorically: "What is the sales volume of -235 underwritten by Indonesian Aerospace in recent years?"
"Sales ......"
Alondo was stunned for a moment, and then carefully calculated, -235 has indeed received a good response in the international market, but most of it is due to another partner, Spain, Indonesia......
"Mr. Zhuang, you mean ......?"
Alondo finally realized something, and was just about to say something, Zhuang Jianye smiled and preemptively spoke: "We are in business, not here to buy gas, the plane is a commodity after all, if you desperately press up the inexplicable things, you can't withstand it in the strong wings, so relax, we are not afraid!"
We are not afraid of a sentence, all of a sudden let Alondo's hanging heart let go of a lot, to be honest, he received a lot of pressure from Indonesian aerospace during this time, this is no way, Royal Thai Aerospace Industries target is Indonesian aerospace.
As the strongest aerospace industry in Southeast Asia, how could Indonesian Aerospace watch someone challenge his brother's position, so since the day the Royal Thai Aerospace Industries was established, Indonesian Aerospace has been eager to get rid of it quickly.
Fortunately, Thailand is also a strong country in Southeast Asia, and its comprehensive strength does not have to be worse than Indonesia, so Indonesia's aerospace has failed to succeed in stumbling several times, but the small actions behind it are frequent.
Especially before and after the Singapore Air Show, Indonesian Aerospace is half the host by virtue of its cooperation with Singapore's Temasek, so it used various means to suppress Royal Thai Aerospace with convenience.
At this time, Indonesian Aerospace's Zodo ran over to dig Zhuang Jianye's corner, Alondo was afraid that Zhuang Jianye would agree to Zodo's conditions and kick the Royal Thai Aerospace away, so when he talked to Zhuang Jianye just now, he was really careful with 10,000 words, and he was afraid that if he said the wrong word, Zhuang Jianye would run away.
It wasn't until he heard the phrase "Relax, let's not be afraid" that Alondo believed that Zhuang Jianye had no intention of leaning on Zuoduo at all.
So he closed his eyes and recited a word of Buddha in his heart, and was about to invite Zhuang Jianye to dinner, but when he opened his eyes, he saw that Zhuang Jianye had already disappeared into the crowd and left.
Seeing this, Alondo naturally wanted to look for it, but before he could find Zhuang Jianye, a sudden news made his newly improved mood immediately fall to the bottom.
Because in the just-published Singapore Breaking Lion City Evening News, an investigation report on the Tengfei Group was published, the text was shocking, the content was alarmist, and its central idea was one, that is, the Tengfei Group from China was the public enemy of China's aviation industry, and it could not be mixed up in China, so it was forced to turn to Southeast Asia.
The next day, other mainstream media in Singapore reprinted the report of the Lion City Evening News, and even some media obtained critical articles on Tengfei Group in China from secret channels, so as to prove that Tengfei Group is a domestic loser in China, relying on the trust of the Thai side with super high deception, such a company is not to say that it makes airplanes, but also makes models, and ordinary people dare not play, for fear of smashing the glass of their neighbors.
On this basis, more media joined in, and soon the tone of the media changed from criticizing the Tengfei Group to questioning China's aviation technology, in the words of one of the mainstream media opinion articles from Malaysia: "Calculate 10,000 steps back, the TM-9 Siamese Eagle taken out by the Tengfei Group is real, and who dares to sit down? You must know that China's aviation technology level is 20 to 30 years different from Europe, the United States, and the Soviet Union, and it can no longer be described by the generation difference, and should be expressed in terms of modern and modern." ”
There are many similar media comments, and Alondo is trembling in his heart and his body is cold, especially an article criticizing the Tengfei Group by Xiang Dong, deputy editor-in-chief of China's "Aviation World" magazine, is regarded as the most powerful evidence of the attack on the Tengfei Group, which makes Alondo both angry and sad.
But there is nothing to be done.
