Chapter 854: It's Too Late
Xiao Ming is also very concerned about the first voyage of the Blue Ark, and it is gratifying that at noon, the Ark between Jiangcheng and Yanjing has successfully landed, successfully transporting tens of thousands of passengers to their destinations.
The family of the critically ill patient also sent a pennant to Jiangcheng Airlines, which was also the first honor won by the Blue Ark.
After a day of airworthiness, the number of comments under Pangu Technology's Weibo increased.
Netizens were amazed by the performance of the Blue Ark, and dared to transport passengers in thunderstorms, which may be a rare situation in human civil aviation in peacetime.
The stable navigation of the Azure Ark also proves that it is possible for the Ark to replace large passenger aircraft as the main means of transportation in the air in the future.
"I hope that Pangu Technology will make more blue arks and apply them to more routes!"
"When will all the routes of Xia Kingdom be able to use the Blue Ark! I really have a bad experience of acquiring the plane!"
"Finally, we don't need to buy Boeing and Airbus planes! Congratulations to Xia Guo for becoming the greatest aviation country in the world. ”
"Congratulations to Pangu Technology, but there is one thing I have to complain about, the ticket price is not too cheap!
The comments of the people will be the greatest encouragement to the Blue Ark project.
At the same time, Gao Derui's side was also busy.
The representatives of more than a dozen airlines in Xia Kingdom did not leave at the latest, and they stayed in Jiangcheng just to wait for your results today.
Today, the performance of the Blue Ark was full of marks, and the accident at Yanjing Airport made all the airlines unable to sit still.
There is a very clear consensus among all.
Now the number of Azure Arks is limited, so other airlines will have passengers to do business.
According to everyone's understanding of the construction speed of Pangu Technology, the period of mass production of the Blue Ark will not be very far away, what should ordinary airlines do at that time?
This afternoon, there was a vote on Weibo on what means of transportation you would choose for travel in the future.
Three options: Azure Ark, Airplane, and High-Speed Rail.
Among them, the number of people who choose the blue ark has reached 90%, which already speaks for itself.
"Mr. Gao, the price is negotiable, the purpose of our coming here today is not to bring the Blue Ark back immediately, we just want to make an appointment with you in advance, and we can be given priority when the Ark is mass-produced in the future." China Eastern Airlines said.
Lin Xiang Aviation is not to be outdone: "Pangu Technology can develop such a powerful means of transportation, we Lin Xiang Aviation absolutely support! In fact, we have long seen that Boeing and Airbus are not pleasing to the eye, they have been monopolizing the large aircraft market for so many years, and we have no right to speak at all."
If we had been able to adopt a domestically produced aircraft, we would have adopted it a long time ago! Everyone is a family, and there is something to discuss! Mr. Gao, you see if this will work, we have a batch of aircraft that have been aging and are about to be retired, and now we have stopped purchasing Boeing and Airbus aircraft, and the budget is all reserved for the Blue Ark. Does Pangu Technology think about us first?"
Lin Xiang Aviation didn't dare to mention the situation when Jiangcheng Airlines was acquired by Pangu Technology at the beginning, and he scolded his mother.
Northern Airlines: "We need it too!"
Nanhai Airlines: "My local climate is changing, and I urgently need a stable and weather-neutral aircraft like the Blue Ark!"
Selling the Blue Ark to major airlines is a definite step in the future.
He said: "Don't worry, in the future, the energy company will send a letter to major companies in the form of an official letter to count everyone's demand for Blue Ark, and we will adjust our production and R&D plans according to everyone's needs." ”
After receiving a positive reply from Pangu Technology, everyone breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.
Soon, the statistics came in.
There are a total of 52 airlines in the mainland of Xia, of which 30 have submitted purchase plans to Pangu Technology, bringing the total number to 1,200.
From this data, it seems that many airlines intend to phase out Boeing and Airbus aircraft.
This amount is a huge order whether it is placed in Boeing or Airbus!
Gao Derui did not announce the price of the Blue Ark, and was able to get such a considerable order, which is enough to show that the Blue Ark has an absolute advantage in the competition of aviation tools.
Among these airlines in Xia Kingdom, there are also many airlines that specialize in cargo, and they have also submitted a request to Pangu Technology to purchase a cargo ark.
Shanghai, the headquarters of China Eastern Airlines.
Half a year ago, after arduous negotiations, China Eastern Airlines and Boeing reached an agreement to purchase ten Boeing 787 aircraft in the next three years to replace the old and upcoming 767 aircraft.
The price of a Boeing 787 is about 1.6 billion soft sister coins, and the total price of this order is 16 billion soft sister coins.
All the painstaking negotiations have been completed and today is the time to sign the contract and pay the upfront costs.
China Eastern Airlines has changed its mind.
Some of the money to buy the Boeing 787 of the United States is better than to buy the blue ark of Pangu Technology Future Energy Company.
After watching the trial flight of Jiangcheng Airlines some time ago, China Eastern Airlines understood the performance and advantages of the Blue Ark, and it would be a real fool to buy a Boeing 787 again.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Rafal, but we can't sign this contract with you. ”
Rafal was sent back to Xia after reporting to the headquarters on the launch of the Blue Ark, and his purpose was to stabilize his existing customers.
"Because of the Blue Ark?" Rafal had a bad feeling when he came here today, and sure enough.
"Yes. Yan Fei, the negotiator of Eastern Airlines, said: "Don't hide from Mr. Rafal, our airline has formulated a detailed plan for the purchase and operation of the Blue Ark, I think you participated in the press conference of the Blue Ark, and you have also read the news of the trial flight a few days ago, and the Blue Ark is the best choice for human future transportation." ”
Yan Fei said very firmly: "China Eastern Airlines will also become the airline with the highest safety factor in the world. ”
Rafal's face was very ugly, "But Mr. Yan Fei, I hope you can abide by the spirit of the contract, we have signed an intentional cooperation agreement, if you don't sign the contract, there will be compensation for liquidated damages." ”
Rafal also came with Boeing's greatest sincerity, he said: "In the second half of this year, our company also changed its strategy for the summer market and implemented a lifetime warranty system for aircraft. If you buy a 787 aircraft now, if it is not a human factor in the future, our company will provide free maintenance services for life, and the price of spare parts will also be provided to you at cost price. ”
Yan Fei suddenly wanted to laugh, now these policies are coming because there are competitors, so why didn't they do it in the first place?
