Chapter 97: I really want to take the King of Rags to the end

At the end of the meeting, Rosemary quickly caught up with Chen Geng's footsteps: "Boss, this time when I went out to contact other scrapped car dismantling plants in Michigan, I encountered an incident, and I wondered if you might be interested." ”

"Oh?" Rosemary's words made Chen Geng a little curious: "What's the matter?"

What could Rosemary tell herself after the meeting?

"I just remembered," Rosemary said, "that there is an aircraft dismantling company in Saint-Sumarie that is up for sale, are you interested?"

Chen Geng: "......"

Aircraft disassembly plant?

Are you going to make me the King of Rags to the end?

"I don't know much about airplane disassembly, but since you mentioned it to me, this thing ...... Very profitable?"

"It's very profitable. Rosemary nodded.

Chen Geng finally became a little interested and asked, "How profitable is it?"

"It's a lot more profitable than dismantling cars," Rosemary paused, a little embarrassed, "if what I know is correct." ”

"That's ......"

Chen Geng knows the automotive aftermarket very well, because he has been in the automobile industry for a long enough time, and he has a deep enough understanding of the automobile front market and the automobile aftermarket, but for the aircraft, not to mention that the big plane he built in the real sense has not yet flown up, and he has not even built a supply chain, let alone the aftermarket of the aircraft, but if Rosemary says that the dismantling of the aircraft is very profitable, he will not doubt that the dismantling of scrapped cars that everyone looks down on can contribute so much profit to himself, not to mention the aircraft with higher profit margins?

After thinking about it, Chen Geng asked Rosemary: "How similar is the dismantling of the plane to the dismantling of our scrapped cars?"

"I don't know a lot, but as far as I know, the biggest difference between aircraft dismantling and scrapped car dismantling is that scrapped car dismantling is dismantling old or damaged cars, but aircraft dismantling is different in this industry, because there are accidents before the dismantling of aircraft is a minority, and it should be a very few, the vast majority of disassembled aircraft are civil airliners.

Before these airliners were sent to the dismantling company, they were actually in normal use with the civil aviation company, but they had to be replaced with new aircraft because they had reached the end of their service life, the cost of life extension was too high, or the comfort level could not meet the requirements of passengers...... In short, regardless of the reason for the retirement of these aircraft, more than 99.99% of the aircraft are in a state of normal use between retirements, and are only retired for various reasons. ”

Chen Geng nodded again and again when he heard this, thinking about it, if these planes that were sent for dismantling were like cars, and a considerable proportion of them were accident cars, then who would dare to take a plane? If you get involved in the aircraft dismantling industry, it is an excellent opportunity to understand the structure and design of an airplane -- what better way to understand an airplane than to disassemble it yourself?

It's very tempting, but Chen Geng still has some doubts: "Listening to you say this, it seems that it is indeed very profitable, but there is a question here, since this business is so profitable, why is this company still being sold?"

"Because this guy's stock is trapped, it's miserable, and if you don't add capital, you will be forced to liquidate," Rosemary's tone was full of schadenfreude: "Either find a way to raise money and continue to smash in, or just wait to cut the meat, there is no second choice, but this guy is obviously not a smart person." ”

Sure enough, the stock market is risky, and you need to be cautious when entering the market. can sell his company for stock speculation, this guy is also a bull, you lose money in the stock market, at least the hen that lays eggs is still there, what is the matter with you directly stewing the hen that lays eggs?

While worrying about this guy's IQ, Chen Geng was also a little curious: "Why didn't he go to the bank to borrow money? If the business of his aircraft dismantling company is doing well, it shouldn't be a big problem to borrow tens of thousands of dollars from the bank temporarily, right?

Rosemary expressed disdain for her boss's strangeness: "You think he doesn't have a mortgage? ”

"it!"

Chen Geng was really shocked when he heard this, the degree of madness of this guy was really beyond the limit of Chen Geng's imagination, but in this way, the question also came: "Doesn't that mean that this company now belongs to the bank?"

"That's right," Rosemary nodded: "I asked a friend about it, and he owes the bank about more than 200,000,000,"

"Even if we get this company, don't we have to repay the bank loan first?"

"That's not necessary, as long as we agree to take over the debt and prove that we have enough ability to repay, the bank will agree to us to convert short-term loans into medium- and long-term loans, the only problem is that we need to deal with that guy first. ”

"Do you need to buy this aircraft loan company from this idiot first?" asked Chen Geng.

"Yes," Rosemary said, "an aircraft disassembly company is a very low-risk company, and it's very difficult for that kind of company to be sold over, so ......."

"Since that's the case, let's go over and have a look," Chen Geng thought for a while and said, "Without further ado, let's leave now." ”

....................................

There is no mobile network is inconvenient, I want to understand what is going on in this aircraft dismantling industry has no chance, after 30 years, it is enough to have a general understanding of the aircraft dismantling industry by flipping through the mobile phone on the road, but now, Chen Geng can only be in a hurry.

Fortunately, he didn't go the wrong way, and when Chen Geng rushed to the United Aircraft Recovery Company that Rosemary said, looking at the scene in front of him, Chen Geng was stunned by this scene: "How do I feel that this place seems to be an airport?"

An aircraft dismantling company has its own aircraft take-off and landing runway, although it is a little incredible, but Chen Geng feels that this matter is not so difficult to understand, those planes that are about to be dismantled are flying directly, how to land without a runway? Look at the dismantling in the distance, the estimated level is only an empty shell of the aircraft body, and then look at the entry in front of me to measure the runway that should be able to take off and land Boeing 737 aircraft of this level. The aircraft tower in the distance, Chen Geng felt that this joke was too big, such a bullish company would not be able to repay the bank loan of 200,000 yuan?

Although this airport looks like a small private airport, but if it is a small private airport, it is also a private airport, which is something that ordinary people can play? Can it be stumped by a mere $200,000?

"Isn't it strange?" Rosemary looked at Chen Geng strangely, not understanding why his boss had such an expression: "Do you see the open space at the end of the runway, that is where their company is located, and the airport rents it, and the rent for a year is not expensive, it is said that it is not more than 30,000 US dollars, and the small airport, just like that......"

Rented......

Nima!

scared Lao Tzu a lot, Lao Tzu thought that this aircraft dismantling company had its own tower and its own runway, and he dared to think too much. But......

Also, since it is engaged in aircraft lending, it is not necessary to rent a place at such a cheap private airport, so it is difficult to rent a place at those busy hub airports? With the scale of this airport and the type and number of planes parked on the tarmac, Chen Geng feels that the rent of $30,000 a year is not cheap.

........................

"You're going to buy my company, 500,000 yuan! Give me $500,000, this company is yours!" Annis, the owner of the red-eyed and scruffy United Aircraft Lending Company, yelled at Chen Geng and Rosemary.

In Chen Geng's opinion, this guy is like a gambler who has lost red-eyed, and he wants to find the last copper plate by all means, hoping to rely on this last copper plate to turn the tables, in short, a very perfect red-eyed gambler.

Chen Geng didn't sympathize with such an idiot, although this idiot looked pitiful: "500,000? Why do you think your company is worth 500,000?"

"Just because I just finished dismantling a McDonnell Douglas DC-7 last month, I made a full $80,000 from that plane!" It's $80,000!" Onis roared at Chen Geng like a gambler with red eyes who has lost red! "One plane makes $80,000 for it! If you can dismantle three planes a year, you will make a fortune!"

McDonnell Douglas DC-7 aircraft?

Chen Geng is not very sure what kind of room the DC-7 is, but when he thinks of McDonnell Douglas's current main aircraft: the DC-9 was officially produced in 65, and there is a DC-8 in front, so this DC-7 should obviously be a model developed in the 50s, a model developed in the 50s...... Nine times out of ten, it's a propeller plane, right?

Chen Geng replied honestly and unceremoniously: "Sounds good, but Mr. Onis, no matter how much moisture you say first, just a little, but are you sure you can dismantle three DC-7s a year?"

Onis's face froze suddenly.

Nonsense!

DC-7 is the first civil aircraft in the United States after World War II that can fly across the United States without stopping, but most of the time it is arranged by the civil aviation company to carry out transatlantic flights, although the aircraft was put into service a little earlier, and it is also an old piston internal combustion engine and propeller aircraft, but such a baby does not know how many aircraft dismantling companies are staring at it, how can it be so easy to grab it? This McDonnell Douglas DC-7 of their own company is still difficult to grab by themselves.

Rosemary followed and said, "Mr. Onis, we are very sincere, I don't see where your sincerity is...... You should be well aware that if you can't reach an agreement with us as soon as possible, your shares will be liquidated, and your short-term loan from the bank will expire, and the biggest problem for you now is not to deal with us, but to turn the situation around as soon as possible. ”

PS: It's 10 o'clock, it's more than 12 o'clock......

I dug a pit and stuffed myself into it, and I felt like I was a pig when I dismantled and recycled the plane, so why did I write this thing with a hot head? I can check a little thing when a car is disassembled, but I can't really find it when an airplane is dismantled...... I really want to scold myself for two sentences, how should I write this thing?

But since I've already written it, let's write it down.
