After weighing the pros and cons, Li Guangyu finally chose a plan that attaches equal importance to Western Europe, Australia and Canada, and focuses on the development of hotels, telecommunications, mobile phones, and computer industries in Western Europe.

In Australia and Canada, in addition to these industries, they will also focus on the development of automobiles, supermarkets, energy, and industry.

At present, the European Community is getting bigger and bigger, and the European Union will be formally established in a few years, and Li Guangyu hopes that some of his high-tech products will be able to occupy the Western European market ahead of schedule, and in the future, his Internet companies will also be able to occupy the Western European market, so as to suppress the development of American Internet companies in the world.

As for the retail supermarket and the automobile group, Lee Guangyu has now chosen to temporarily abandon it to avoid the Lee consortium being targeted by the United States and Western Europe.

Although Canada is known as the backyard of the United States, as a member of the British Commonwealth, the Lee Foundation's industries will not be treated like in the United States when they develop in Canada.

At present, the retail in the Canadian market is mainly occupied by Wal-Mart, Carrefour has no influence there, Li Guangyu is ready to let Hengyu Supermarket Group go to Wal-Mart to wrestle the wrist, and at the same time, 7-11 will also exert force in the United States, and Wal-Mart will not be able to live too easily.

After the rise of the e-commerce platform in the future, Li Guangyu will definitely make Wal-Mart pay the price, the first retail supermarket group in his previous life, Li Guangyu will not let him have this glory in this life.

Not long after Li Guangyu returned to the office, Gan Qin came in and reported: "Li Sheng, Kendi Jesse, vice president of Airbus, hopes to visit you, he has been here for more than half an hour, and is now waiting for your reply at the front desk of the building. ”

"You go and tell the front desk to bring him up, and you can make a pot of hot tea. ”

Regardless of whether the relationship between the Lee consortium and the United States is good or bad, Airbus will be an important cooperative company of the Lee consortium, and Lee Guangyu himself did not think about owning a large aircraft manufacturing company in the past, which is an unrealistic thing for him.

In the next few decades, the main aircraft of civil aviation are Boeing and Airbus, and it will be difficult for other companies to develop and grow, and the strength and financial resources in this are not something that ordinary people can afford.

Airbus has such strength because it has the financial and technical support of Britain, France and Germany, even so, their strength still cannot be compared with Boeing, in terms of market share, Airbus is a big difference between Boeing.

He is destined to have a controlling stake in the industries of some countries, even if he passes the fund, it is useless, such as aircraft manufacturing companies, which are all enterprises protected by various countries, and it is undoubtedly a fool's dream for outsiders to want to control such a company.

After Kendi Jesse came in, Li Guangyu said enthusiastically: "Mr. Jesse, I'm very glad to see you again, please take a seat." ”

Kendi Jesse still remembers the scene of the first meeting with Lee Guangyu, when the Lee consortium was good, but it had not been taken too seriously by their Airbus.

More than three years have passed, once had nothing, Hong Kong Airlines has become one of the world's top airlines, with hundreds of planes, covering more than 100 city routes, Hong Kong Airlines has a very great influence in the world, especially the hot cities to Hong Kong, Treasure Island, Kuala Lumpur and Bangkok The first choice is the flight of Hong Kong Airlines.

For example, this time, I took the flight from Paris to Hong Kong on Hong Kong Airlines.

This is unthinkable in the history of any private air transport development, and no new airline has been able to grow so quickly without annexation.

Kendi Jesse doesn't count the rest, just the current 120 passenger planes of Heung Kong Airlines are worth more than 4 billion US dollars, and what is the 83-year richest man's assets announced by Forbes this year, 2.76 billion US dollars, less than 3 billion, this asset is not enough to buy more than 100 aircraft.

Ordinary people go back to worship these richest people in the world, they don't care who is the richest man in the world, these families and consortia are the objects of their attention, airlines are not everyone can play, especially large airlines, such customers can bring them a huge number of orders.

It is difficult for Kendi Jesse to give an exact answer to how many assets the Li consortium has now, but he knows that the Forbes global personal wealth list from the first to the 100 combined is not as much as the assets of the Li consortium.

This is still the Li consortium and these groups are not listed, otherwise the assets of the Li consortium will be countless times larger.

After Kendi Jesse sat down, he said to him, "Mr. Lee, thank you for accepting my visit. ”

"I'm sorry, I'm having a meeting, it just ended, and I didn't know you were coming, so I kept you waiting. ”

"I took the liberty of coming uninvited, and I hope Mr. Li will not be surprised, I came to visit you this time, to thank you for your trust in our Airbus, and please rest assured that the products we deliver to Heung Kong Airlines must be high-quality products, and our airlines will give priority to you to deliver products. ”

At present, their Western European economy is not ideal, and their Airbus orders are also growing sluggishly, and such a huge order from the Lee consortium has allowed them to meet the nectar for a long time, relieving the pressure on their Airbus executives.

You know, they are currently increasing their investment in the development of ultra-long-range passenger aircraft to cope with the Boeing-747 family, if there are no large orders now, where will they have the profit to invest in research and development.

Airbus executives know that Heung Kong Airlines and Cathay Pacific Airways are the main flight routes, and the demand for ultra-long-distance passenger aircraft is very large, and at present, their Airbus can only fly more than 7,000 kilometers at the farthest, which cannot meet the transpacific flight of Hong Kong Airlines.

China's reform and opening up continues to deepen, the Asian region's economy continues to develop, and there will be more and more flights across continents and oceans in the future, which requires ultra-long-range aircraft to fly, and Airbus does not want this market to be monopolized by Boeing.

Li Guangyu said with a smile: "In recent years, the cooperation between Hong Kong Airlines and Airbus has been very pleasant, and I also very much hope that the cooperation between us can continue for a long time, in the future, Hong Kong Airlines will not only have passenger aircraft, but also cargo demand, and the number of aircraft of Hong Kong Airlines will exceed 1,000 in the future, I am very confident in this." ”

Although 1,000 such data sounds a bit fantastical, Kendi Jesse doesn't feel that Li Guangyu is bragging, even if the current airline with hundreds of planes is already the world's top airline, he still feels that this 1,000 aircraft is not difficult for Li Guangyu.

Now he is only excited in his heart, this is an order for a thousand planes, if he can't grasp it firmly, he feels that he is not qualified to be the vice president of Airbus.

He also knows that Airbus does not have ultra-long-range aircraft at present, which is obviously not in line with the layout of the Li consortium, and if they want to swallow all the orders of Xiangjiang Airlines, they must speed up the development of ultra-long-range aircraft.

The reason why Li Guangyu mentioned this is that he hopes that the development speed of Airbus can be accelerated, he is located in Xiangjiang, and it is destined that most of his routes are mainly ultra-long-haul, and he needs to leave markets for China Airlines, Malaysia Airlines and Thai Airways for short-haul routes, and he cannot occupy these markets.

In the future, Li Guangyu will look for opportunities to see if he can enter the mainland aviation market, and if he can enter, then the number of planes of his airline will be even larger.
