Chapter 985: China Airlines Negotiations

When Zhao Xiaoyan presided over the meeting, after many rounds of communication on the China Airlines incident, China Airlines and AVIC finally sat down directly and discussed face-to-face.

This also officially broke the principle of three noes, no contact, no negotiation, and no compromise that has been practiced by Baodao for decades.

Zhao Wenhua didn't do anything these days, so he worked as a messenger for both sides.

Previously, China Airlines entrusted the Xiangjiang Air Transport Group to help them deal with the incident, but the other side of the strait proposed that the two parties independently negotiate to resolve the incident, and did not want a third party to intervene.

After several exchanges, the two sides took Hong Kong as the location for the negotiation, and Zhao Wenhua, President of Heung Kong Transport Group, was their introducer.

In the conference room of the Regal Hotel, Zhao Wenhua withdrew from the conference room after introducing the other party's personnel to both parties, leaving the space to themselves.

In the first talks, both sides made their positions clear, there was no big controversy, the talks lasted more than an hour, and it was agreed that the second meeting would be held at 10 a.m. tomorrow.

In the Xiangjiang Xinhua News Agency, the leader of the leading group in charge of the talks listened to a report by Wang Ruipu, general manager of the AVIC Xiangjiang Branch, on the contents of today's talks, and immediately reported to the top management.

Wang Ruipu said: "Today's talks are a good start, our central government proposed three links between the two sides of the strait very early, but Baodao has long practiced the principle of three noes, so that this process can not be pushed forward for a long time, although this is only an exchange between the two civil aviation companies, but this also breaks the principle of no contact, no negotiation, and no compromise that Baodao has maintained for a long time. ”

A few years ago, the central authorities had the idea of one country, two systems, first of all, to realize trade, postal services, and shipping links, and to further realize the peaceful reunification of the motherland, which is also in line with the interests of the Chinese nation.

The China Airlines incident is a good opportunity for the two sides to get in touch with each other, hoping to break the long-standing three-noes policy on Baodao.

Wang Ruipu said: "At present, there will not be too much pressure in this negotiation, China Airlines is now a private company, although it is still a company belonging to the treasure island government, but they also have to bear their own profits and losses, at present, China Airlines only has a total of two cargo planes, they very much hope to be able to complete the negotiations as soon as possible." ”

Although China Airlines is the local airline of Baodao, in Baodao, the main international routes are operated by Xiangjiang Airlines, and at present, the Li consortium has 30 passenger planes stationed at Taoyuan (Zhongzheng) International Airport in Baodao, all of which are the world's latest civil airliners.

In addition, the base of Heung Kong Air Transport Group at Taoyuan Airport is still expanding, and it is expected to reach the scale of 100 aircraft at the Taoyuan base in the future.

If there is anyone who most hopes that the two sides of the strait will realize the three links as soon as possible, it must be the Li consortium, and after the two sides realize the three links, his airlines will be able to obtain cross-strait air routes more easily.

This time, Zhao Wenhua, President of Heung Kong Air Transport Group, is so active in running between the two sides, which is also the same reason that the two sides of the strait can achieve direct exchanges as soon as possible to promote the development of their groups.

Wang Ruipu is based in Xiangjiang and naturally knows Xiangjiang Air Transport Group very well, and now it is not only the base of Taoyuan Airport that is expanding, but also the second phase of construction in Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok and Vancouver.

As for Hong Kong, the Hong Kong Air Transport Group has proposed to the government to build a new airport, and Kai Tak Airport is no longer able to meet the needs of Hong Kong's development.

At present, Kai Tak Airport is one of the main bases of Heung Kong Airlines and Cathay Pacific Airways, and because it is located in the urban area, it is too difficult to expand, so that the base of the Lee consortium here can only stop 60 planes, and Cathay Pacific Airways can only stop 20 planes, which can no longer meet the needs of the development of the two major airlines.

The person in charge of China Airlines said: "China Airlines is not strong due to the government's financial resources, and the company's advanced passenger aircraft are still relatively few, especially the Boeing 747 and Boeing 767 series, as well as the Airbus A300 series under Xiangjiang Airlines, there are only a few, and this Boeing 747 freighter is very important to China Airlines." ”

No airline in the world has any of them in the latest Boeing 747 series, Boeing 767 series and Airbus A300 series, even the first air transport group in the United States cannot compare with them.

Now it is not only the international routes of Hong Kong that are dominated by Hong Kong Airlines, but also the international routes of Baodao, Malaysia and Thailand are mainly based on Hong Kong Airlines, and the international routes from Canada to Asia are also dominated by Hong Kong Airlines.

According to rumors, Heung Kong Airways intends to establish new logistics and maintenance bases in the United Kingdom and Brazil to expand its group's strength on international routes around the world.

Chen Side, leader of the leading group, said: "To be able to reach an amicable agreement is what both sides are willing to see, we want to let the people of Baodao know our goodwill, we absolutely say what we say, the three nos principle on the island side is not conducive to solving the problem, nor is it conducive to the economic development of Baodao, but also so that countless compatriots and relatives in the mainland can not meet, we hope that after this time, we can let Baodao let go of the stubbornness in their hearts and return to the road of negotiation." ”

In the Chung Hwa Agency, Zhong Zanrong, general manager of China Airlines Xiangjiang, also reported the matter to Vice Minister Huang Jisen.

Huang Jisen said: "I didn't expect that we would not be able to let President Zhao Wenhua accompany us to participate, it seems that they are still regarded as outsiders by that side." ”

Zhong Zanrong said: "Deputy Chief Huang, the other party insists that this matter is a matter of two civil aviation companies, and there is no need for a third party to intervene, and Mr. Zhao obviously doesn't want to get involved in this, so after introducing both of us, he left the conference room directly, and it is estimated that he also got Mr. Li Guangyu's request." ”

Even though he has now officially contacted the negotiations, Huang Jisen no longer cares whether Zhao Wenhua is involved in this, and whether this matter can bury a thorn in the Li consortium depends on what the senior management of the Li consortium thinks.

Huang Jisen said: "The exchange place must be Xiangjiang, and you must not make concessions on this point when you negotiate, and now the president and senior management of the island and ordinary citizens are looking at us, and I don't want the result of the negotiations to be too ugly." ”

Zhong Zanrong knows very well that it is not only the two sides of the Taiwan Strait that are now paying attention to this matter, but also many forces around the world are keeping a close eye on it.

If they can't get a good result this time, I'm afraid that their position will be changed.

He immediately said: "Deputy Chief, please rest assured that we will definitely negotiate a result that is acceptable to both sides and satisfactory to all parties on the island." ”

Huang Jisen is also under great pressure this time, and he has become the person in charge of breaking this principle that has been practiced on the island for decades, and if he cannot have a satisfactory ending this time, he is afraid that his political career will end here.

He said to Zhong Zanrong: "You will visit Mr. Zhao Wenhua again tonight and communicate with him, hoping that he can mediate between him and ensure that this negotiation can have a happy ending." ”

Huang Jisen himself will visit Yuan Tianfan, the first executive officer of the Li Foundation, firstly, to strengthen the connection between Baodao and the Li Consortium, and secondly, to use the Li Consortium to reduce his pressure.
