Chapter 733: National Capital
Zhuang Jianye looked at the numbers on the calculator and smiled happily.
During the Farnborg Air Show, don't look at his hard work in front of the media to understand the sky, the earth, and the air, in fact, except for the export of high-end aviation materials, he didn't get any benefits at all.
The real big heads were swallowed up by Liszt and the Boeing, McDonnell Douglas, DuPont and Wall Street bigwigs behind him.
All in all, using Zhuang Jianye's sideways jump left and right in the media, these guys are bonds, stocks, long, and short, and they make a lot of money.
Zhuang Jianye looked like a rabbit with eyes, very red, and wanted to use money to follow the trend for a few rounds, not much, two or three bands are enough for several years of Take-off Group's R&D investment.
It is a pity that Zhuang Jianye also saw the opportunity at that time, but did not make preparations first, and the temporary mobilization of domestic resources was hindered by layers of approval, after all, it was a large-scale speculation, and a large amount of dollars was used, and there was no way for the superiors not to approve Zhuang Jianye.
But this time it is different, with the successful experience of the Farnborough Air Show, some domestic financial institutions also want to make a wave, coupled with the thirst for foreign exchange in other aspects, I feel that it should not be a big problem to follow a few waves.
As a result, several financial institutions joined forces and entrusted China Merchants Bank, in which Tengfei Group was a shareholder, to open an account on Hong Kong Island, which was managed by Kong Qingdong, the head of China Merchants Bank on Hong Kong Island, to benchmark Liszt's actions and quietly establish positions in European bonds and stock markets.
First, the order for 150 aircraft was established, and Zhuang Jianye was interviewed by foreign media to publicly question the safety of Airbus aircraft, which led to a sharp drop in Airbus stocks, and Airbus had to issue short-term high-interest rate bonds under financial pressure in order to smooth the flow of funds for this.
Such a high level of Airbus' bonds has instead depressed the price of the stock, leading to further declines.
Li Szt and Kong Qingdong, who had already established a long position in bonds and a short position in the stock market, successfully killed and took a hard bite of fat.
After that, the playbook is that Tengfei Group and Airbus will work together, and the two sides will release good news, Airbus's stock price will take the opportunity to rise, the bond market will be frustrated, and the reverse operation of Lister and Kong Qingdong can also make a lot of money from it.
But Zhuang Jianye was between the French flow ~~ hooliganism, and directly gave Airbus a ruthless knife, let Ju Tao go out, arranged several camera positions, and concocted a "video door" for Airbus, and then used the relationship between Boeing and McDonnell Douglas and Airbus's mortal enemies, and completely copied it, so that Airbus's stock price plummeted and bond interest rates were high.
Liszt and Kong Qingdong, who were concocted in the same way, were not as simple as taking a bite of fat, and they almost shaved the roots of Airbus's leeks.
When the dust settled and the results were tested, Kong Qingdong, who was in charge, beat his chest and repeatedly shouted that the domestic financial institutions were too conservative, so he gave him so much money, and if he gave one or two billion, he would be able to get back at least five times the return this time, instead of the current mere $1.6 billion.
In contrast, Liszt is much more reserved, plus these two waves he earned at least $600 million from Zhuang Jianye's horizontal jump, as for the Wall Street capital behind it, it is unpredictable, no matter what else, just two waves of short Airbus almost sucked up all the money that Europe has subsidized Airbus in recent years.
Of course, it is impossible to say that Airbus is going to completely decline, Europe regards Airbus as its own son, when the A300 first came out, it took more than ten years, and the whole Europe gritted its teeth and gave Airbus a blood transfusion to survive, and now it is only a small setback, so as not to make Europe lose confidence, and it will still be poured into it without hesitation when it is time for blood transfusion.
It's just that, Tengfei Group doesn't have a good impression of Airbus.
Therefore, the assistant Xiaotong was only happy for a while, and then asked Zhuang Jianye worriedly: "Mr. Zhuang, what should we do in the future......? Have you given up?"
The more Xiao Tong spoke, the quieter his voice became, and the slender eyes behind the thick glasses looked at Zhuang Jianye's ancient face from time to time, others did not know, but as Zhuang Jianye's assistant, he knew very well that in order to make the models produced by Tengfei Group successfully enter the international market, Zhuang Jianye really tried his best, and even did not hesitate to behave like a madman in front of the media.
But the result?
The high-end aviation materials produced by Tengfei Group can be exported, the medical equipment produced can be exported, and even the family planning supplies with the logo of Tengfei Group can be exported, but the aircraft produced is stuck by a small airworthiness certificate, and it is impossible to enter the international market.
Even if it is a model that cooperates with other countries, it will not work.
As a result, the Royal Thai Aviation Industries Group and Leipzig Company, which introduced the Ascendas Group's models, either "bought out" the technology and labeled it as purely "domestic", or simply abandoned aircraft manufacturing and returned to its old business.
All in all, Tengfei Group's layout of aircraft impacting the international market for many years has completely failed.
It is precisely because of this that Tengfei Group will want to cooperate with aviation giants and use joint development to promote its own models to the international market, for which Tengfei Group does not hesitate to give 60% of the profit, and only takes 40% of its own.
As a result, Boeing just sneered and replied that he was not interested, and McDonnell Douglas laughed and comforted him with the peace of mind that it was better to produce the MD-90, and sent the Tengfei Group away.
Originally, he also expected Airbus to condescend to accept Tengfei Group, the little brother who really accepted it, but in the end, Zhuang Jianye did not choose to bow his head and kneel, but stood up straight and stubborn, so the road of cooperation also collapsed.
"The relationship between the aviation industry chain is too big, all of them are high-end, and there are too many things pulled, so no one can give up if they want to. Zhuang Jianye was silent for a moment, adjusted the blanket in front of him, changed to a comfortable position, and then slowly spoke.
Xiao Tong understood what Zhuang Jianye meant, whether it is Airbus in Europe or Boeing in the United States, behind its glamour is the support of the huge industrial chain of the entire country or alliance, and the high-tech pull is not one or two, but hundreds or thousands.
If they let out the market and cultivate the next Airbus and Boeing, what they will lose is not the aviation market but all the businesses in the entire huge chain established by tens of thousands of supporting manufacturers behind it.
It's a matter of the country, who dares to move lightly?
"Then what should we do?" the boy asked again, frowning.
Zhuang Jianye sneered: "Of course, we can do what we should do, if we can't sell the aircraft, we will sell materials, equipment, and production lines, and if we can't sell the aircraft, we will engage in military use, and who stipulates that the military must also have an airworthiness certificate? If this is the case, the Soviet Union's MiG-21 and MiG-29 don't have to fly; if this is still restrictive, we simply don't do manned ones, and all of them will be changed to unmanned ones; if we don't become aviation, we will become a sideline business, and we will directly transfer to aerospace, and I don't believe that living people can still suffocate urine? Joke!"
