Chapter 808: Don't become cannon fodder for some reason, and affect all of us
On this day, Tianqi Group issued an internal document.
Lv Huairen, the former deputy general manager of Tianqi Solo Aircraft Company, was appointed as the president of Tianqi Machinery Group.
Delbert, the former general manager of Tianqi Solo Aerial Vehicle Company, was appointed as the vice president of Tianqi Machinery Group.
It opened the prelude to the integration of Tianqi Machinery Group.
At the same time, Wu Sikai, on behalf of Tianqi Group, registered the documents of Tianqi Machinery Group with the Dunhuang Municipal Government, which shows that the headquarters of Tianqi Machinery Group is established in Dunhuang.
It has jurisdiction over two interstellar aircraft factories on Pusfield Island, the Aidelius Interstellar Aircraft Factory, the Dunhuang Interstellar Aircraft Factory, and the Apocalypse as the Aircraft Factory, and five major production factories.
The local government of Dunhuang is extremely welcome, and finally there is a large group settled in the local area, which is definitely a great benefit to the local economic development.
All the way to the green light, that department dared to delay the approval time and took off the black gauze hat of the head of the department, under this kind of order, the approval speed is fast.
With Delbert, a veteran, to help Lu Huairen, Xu Ping'an is very relieved, just watch them perform, if they really can't help up, they will be replaced when the time comes.
Xu Ping'an has returned to China and rested at home for a few days.
This morning, Xu Ping'an did not go to the company after coming out of home, but went to Wei Dongshuo to discuss something with Wei Dongshuo.
After being notified that Xu Ping'an was coming, Wei Dongshuo personally went to the door to greet Xu Ping'an and made a cup of tea to greet Xu Ping'an.
At the same time, Wei Dongshuo explained to the secretary, "I don't see anyone else at noon today, and I will push the general things."
The secretary nodded and left.
"Boss Xu, come over today, do you have any advice" Wei Dongshuo smiled as soon as Xu Ping'an spoke.
"Of course, there is a request for our official master" Xu Ping'an replied with a smile, and the two laughed together.
A little joke can help to liven up the atmosphere and create a good environment for the next negotiation.
"Let's get straight to the point, there is something to talk about," Wei Dongshuo said directly.
"There is no big thing"
"There is a by-product of the marine heavy metal degradation station, that is, table salt, can you help me ask the state to collect it," Xu Ping'an said directly.
Wei Dongshuo was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then smiled.
"If your product was placed in ancient times, it would be an absolutely good thing, but now, all branches of the national salt depot are full."
"If you don't have a place to sell your salt, I'll tell you a good place, the alkali industry, they need salt very much, especially salt with high purity," Wei Dongshuo said with a smile.
Xu Ping'an had a suddenly realized expression, how could he forget about this matter, he was really dizzy.
"Thank you for your advice, I know what to do"
"This by-product of mine is quite pure," Xu Ping'an said with a smile.
"I'll tell you one thing too, you can help me verify it," Wei Dongshuo said with a serious expression.
Xu Ping'an was very puzzled, what could make Wei Dongshuo serious was definitely not a trivial matter, how could he need his own help to verify it, and asked "What's the matter".
"There is news that the Airbus Group intends to transform and plans to sell the aircraft manufacturing line in J City," Wei Dongshuo said directly.
Xu Ping'an was stunned after hearing this, no, what is Airbus trying to do.
"Where did the high-ranking officials hear the news," Xu Ping'an asked.
"Don't ask me, you can help me verify it," Wei Dongshuo said directly.
"Okay, there will be news in two days," Xu Ping'an said directly.
Norton has stepped down as chairman of Airbus Group, and the new chairman is called Oppenheimer, and Xu Ping'an has only met once, and he is not familiar with it at all.
Therefore, I can only inquire about this matter from the side.
The two chatted for a while, Xu Ping'an said goodbye, and Wei Dongshuo sent Xu Ping'an downstairs to get into the car, and then returned.
Xu Ping'an began to think about this matter in the car, Airbus actually wanted to transform, what to do with transformation, and was suddenly stunned when he thought about it.
Do you want to transform into the production of starships and grab food with yourself?
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that this was a great possibility.
After thinking about it carefully, he slowly shook his head, it won't be the production of starships, the cost is here, and the cost of Airbus production is probably much higher than itself.
If it weren't for Starship, what would it be, would Airbus be willing to give up the aviation market, Xu Ping'an began to ponder.
Back at the headquarters of Tianqi Group, Xu Ping'an made a pot of tea and said directly, "Xingling, check the Airbus Group through the Internet to see if they really have plans to transform."
Xing Ling didn't reply, Xu Ping'an didn't care, sometimes Xing Ling was too lazy to respond, and things should be done or done.
In Europe, at the headquarters of the Airbus Group, a bunch of people from the board of directors are still discussing things, and the situation is a bit intense.
The discussion is really about the issue of transformation.
The aircraft market is marginally limited, but Starship is different, based on internal information gathering on the production of Starship by the Apocalypse Group, it is certain.
The Apocalypse Group sells an interstellar spaceship to earn a starship, and the cost is only a little more than 20 billion euros, and it does not need 45 billion euros at all.
"Gentlemen, profits, producing one ship makes more than 20 billion euros, are you willing to give up this profit," Oppenheimer said, looking at the members of the board.
"Oppenheimer, let me ask you a little bit, if the Apocalypse Group directly lowers the price, whose products do you think customers will choose?"
"Also, don't forget the example of a one-man flying machine, what was Xu Ping'an's reaction at the beginning?"
"Giving up the civil aviation market, Starship production and losing money, what should Airbus do, is it bankrupt?" asked the big director Lang Li directly.
"Langli, you have to understand"
"Who is behind Airbus, it is the entire European Union, and when the time comes, the orders of the entire European Union will belong to us"
"If necessary, the order from the United States will also be handed over to us"
"Because the United States is still inseparable from the EU market for the time being"
"Besides, now we are not completely abandoning the aircraft market, but reducing the production lines around the world"
"The complete aircraft production line of the Celestial Empire has been shut down and sold, and several spare parts factories in the Celestial Empire have been shut down and sold."
"At that time, we will give some orders to the Celestial Empire, and anyway, our interstellar vehicles also need spare parts for the Celestial Empire."
"There is an order, and the Celestial Empire will not give any opinions," Oppenheimer said very calmly.
"Oppenheimer, I'll just ask one thing, and if you can give an answer, I'll support your transformation"
"How would you deal with the Apocalypse Group if it entered the aircraft manufacturing industry, I remember Norton once said that the Apocalypse Group had already started the construction of new aircraft"
"If the cost of the aircraft is low and the consumption is low, how do you deal with it?"
"The EU will definitely give us orders, but the airlines have to consider the cost, and once the Apocalypse Group goes all out into the civil aviation market and launches a new generation of products, those airlines know very well what they should choose."
"When the time comes, will Europe and the United States also subsidize various airlines?" said Sheila, the big director, looked at Oppenheimer and asked.
Oppenheimer frowned, Sheila said that this situation is not impossible, and the new products of the Apocalypse Group make all enterprises afraid.
It's too disruptive to the industry.
"Microsoft didn't believe in this evil back then, and as a result, the Apocalypse Group withdrew from the Nebula system"
"Qualcomm's board of directors also did not believe in the strength of Apocalypse Group, and as a result, Apocalypse Group launched Angstrom-level chips"
"Once you start a full-scale competition with the Apocalypse Group, are you sure you can get the Angstrom-level chips?"
"One more thing you should not forget, the aerospace materials, the materials of the global starship are all supplied by the Apocalypse Steel Group, once your goods are cut off, what will you produce" another director, Joanne, spoke.
Although there was nothing on his face after speaking, he let out a long sigh in his heart, Norton's worry was right, he was really worried about the future Airbus.
"Ms. Joanne, the Apocalypse Group needs the European market, and if it leaves the European market, the decline of the Apocalypse Group is inevitable," Oppenheimer said with a sarcastic smile on his face.
"Yes, what if all the super fish oil and super peptides are out of stock?"
"Are you going to calm down the people when they are making a fuss," said Joanne, looking at Oppenheimer.
secretly scolded in his heart.
When Xu Ping'an is a good man and a woman, he is a big hooligan who dares to play any means in order to achieve his own goals.
If you force him like this, will he have any scruples?
"Remind you, if Airbus fell out with Xu Ping'an, do you think the EU needs the Apocalypse Group, or does it need you," Joanne said with a smile on her face.
Dare to look at me with that kind of contempt, what are you, don't give you a little bit of power, you really don't know how thick the sky is.
Oppenheimer was silent, Joanne, the old witch, was right, if it really competed with the Apocalypse Group in an all-round way, once Airbus fell into disadvantage, things would not be easy to do.
Xu Ping'an, this bastard, has a very dark hand and holds a grudge.
It has been so long since the matter with YD country, and there has been no reconciliation with YD country until now, which shows how much grudge Xu Ping'an's heart has.
When Oppenheimer is no longer the chairman of Airbus, Xu Ping'an has done a black hand to himself, and no one will care about his death.
"Gentlemen and Ladies"
"I propose reform for Airbus not for my own selfish reasons, but for the sake of our whole Europe, and more importantly, for the survival of our Airbus Group"
"Airbus' success is the result of the concerted efforts of the EU countries, because we are united and we are born"
"Let's look at the current international situation."
"The ambition of the United States to dominate space is self-evident, and the Celestial Empire and the E country are rising"
"What about our European Union, what's there, our current three meteorite capture spacecraft are all built by the Apocalypse Group, although now the interstellar vehicle has begun to be built"
"But the Starship project is not led by our Airbus, but has taken away a large part of our R&D strength."
"Guys, when Starship is built, it's time for us to go down Airbus"
"Interstellar vehicles can be built, is it difficult to build airplanes, or it is not a big deal to simply build new aircraft to replace airplanes"
"What will we do with Airbus then, what is the status of our Airbus, and are we still the Airbus that symbolizes the unity of the European Union?"
"If that's the case you don't care"
"I'll just ask, Airbus has been replaced by a new type of aircraft, what about our interests"
"Are you willing to give up your current interests?"
"If you're willing to give up, I have nothing to say," Oppenheimer said as he watched the crowd speak.
Everyone was silent, and Oppenheimer said what they had been avoiding all avoidance, and that Starship had been rebuilt instead of handing it over to the Airbus Group, which made everyone feel in crisis.
Let's not forget, the EU is the largest shareholder of the Airbus Group, and if the time comes for the two companies to merge, will they still be where they are now?
I'm afraid that when the time comes, the shares in your hands will either be diluted by the EU or you will be given a sum of money to buy your shares.
Let you go out and be marginalized from now on.
Thinking of this, the expressions on many people's faces became solemn, and this situation is unacceptable no matter what.
"Oppenheimer, we all know what you're talking about"
"But have you ever thought about it, once you start fighting with the Apocalypse Group, this will accelerate the change"
"For the sake of interstellar vehicles, the EU will not fall out with Xu Ping'an now"
"There is another point I solemnly remind you that Xu Ping'an's connections in the EU are not inferior to you, and you can ask the person behind you about making a decision."
"Don't become cannon fodder for no reason, and affect all of us," Director Langlida said with a serious look on Oppenheimer's face.
Oppenheimer was stunned, it's impossible, Xu Ping'an's connections in the EU are stronger than mine, how is this possible.
After taking a serious look at Director Langlida and finding that Director Langli didn't mean to joke, Oppenheimer began to think about it, and after a while, he was suddenly shocked.
The expression on his face was a little dark, as if he wanted to understand something.
