Chapter 594: The plane is a bit difficult
After talking to Lu Cheng about expanding the planting area of the medicinal herb base, Li Dong left Dongshan and drove to the Qingzhou Municipal Government, where he found Mayor Yang Chengyong.
Oriental Miracle is now the largest enterprise in Qingzhou, with hundreds of millions of taxes every year, and Li Dong, as the boss of Oriental Miracle, is naturally easier to see Yang Chengyong than others.
In other words, Yang Chengyong is very happy to see Li Dong, and even treats Li Dong as a guest, you can come to see him at any time, after all, this Boss Li is now the economic pillar of Qingzhou, in addition to the Oriental miracle, Qingzhou's medicinal material industry, tourism industry, are driven by Boss Li, has been doubled, and has been repeatedly praised by the province, which also adds a very strong stroke to his career.
"Hello, Boss Li. Yang Chengyong personally went out to greet him, and after seeing Li Dong, he held the other party's hand tightly, although the other party was more than 20 years younger than him, but he didn't dare to look down on the other party in any way.
And as far as he knows, the leg injury that has plagued Old Man Liu for many years has been cured by the other party, and I heard that at Old Man Liu's birthday banquet, the old man also invited the other party to sit with other old men.
What does this mean? It shows that the other party's status in Old Man Liu's heart is very high, and as a person of Old Man Liu's family, he cannot slack off in public or private.
"Mayor Yang, hello, I am going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and I came to Mayor Yang today, I really have something to ask for. Li Dong said embarrassedly, he usually doesn't see anyone, but when he comes, he will find someone to help, alas.
"Boss Li, you are too polite, what do you have to do, just tell me, as long as I, who is the mayor, can do it, I promise not to say a word, and I will help you immediately." Yang Chengyong said happily, the other party is not only the economic pillar of Qingzhou, but also solves the problem of food and clothing for tens of thousands of people.
Helping the other party is actually helping himself.
"Mayor Yang, that's the case, in order to save transportation time and transport the company's products to all parts of the country at the fastest speed, I want to rent a few planes at our Qingzhou Airport, but I am not familiar with the airport and don't know who to find, so I can only come to Mayor Yang. Li Dong said with a wry smile.
He originally wanted to buy the plane directly, but then he thought about it, the problem of the airport needs to be solved, the problem of the route needs to be solved, the problem of the captain needs to be solved, and the most important thing is that the plane ordered will not be delivered for a while, and the company is in urgent need of use, so renting the plane has become another choice for him.
"What a coincidence. Yang Chengyong said with a smile, "I just called the heads of various transportation departments together today for a meeting, do a good job in the transportation reception and safety work in the tourist season in July and August, Niu Jiang, the general manager of Qingzhou Airport, is also there, it is estimated that this will not go far, I will call him and ask him to come back." ”
Yang Chengyong immediately took out his mobile phone and called Niu Jiang, Niu Jiang had just left, and had not yet left the city, received a call from the mayor, and immediately drove back, and ten minutes later, the person had already arrived at the city government.
When Niu Jiang entered the mayor's office, he was slightly stunned when he saw the people inside, others may not be familiar with it, but he knew very well that this young man was Li Dong, the boss of the Oriental Miracle, not only because the other party was a celebrity, but also because the other party had gone to Qingzhou Airport many times to take a plane.
"Mayor Yang, are you looking for me?"
"Niu Jiang, come, let me introduce you, this is Li Dong, the boss of the Oriental Miracle of our city......" Yang Chengyong then said to Li Dong, "Boss Li, this is Niu Jiang, the general manager of our Qingzhou Airport." ”
"Boss Li, hello!"
"Mr. Niu, hello. ”
Li Dong and Niu Jiang's hands shook together.
"Come, sit down!" Yang Chengyong pointed to the sofa on the side, and instructed the secretary to pour tea, and then said to Niu Jiang, "Niu Jiang, that's the case, Boss Li wants to rent a few planes to transport goods, do you see if you can help?"
Niu Jiang was still wondering along the way, why the mayor suddenly called him back, but now when he heard it, he immediately understood, and his colleagues were relieved.
"Boss Li, you may have found the wrong person in this matter. Niu Jiang looked at Li Dong embarrassedly and said, "The airport is only used for aircraft to take off and land, and provides airport control services and air traffic control services, and there are no cargo planes, if you want to rent a plane, you should go to the airline, not our airport ......."
Yang Chengyong waved his hand at Niu Jiang, interrupted the other party's words, and said, "Can I not know about this matter? The purpose of my coming to you is to ask you to help contact the airline, although your Qingzhou Airport belongs to the airport management group of our province, but I hope that you can support the development of Qingzhou." ”
"This is for sure, although I am not from Qingzhou, but Qingzhou City, my second hometown, it is my bounden duty to support the development of Qingzhou. Niu Jiang hurriedly said, "I'll contact the airline now to see if I can provide a cargo plane." ”
Li Dong turned his head sideways, looked at Yang Chengyong on the side and asked, "Isn't there an aviation supply company in our city?"
Yang Chengyong immediately smiled bitterly, and said while shaking his head, "Don't say it's Qingzhou, even if it's our province." ”
"Huh, won't you?"
"Boss Li, the airline is not better than other companies, its operating costs are too high, just take an ordinary plane, the value is in the hundreds of millions, and our Qingzhou itself is a small city, there are fewer people who come to us, and there are fewer people who take the plane to other places, which also leads to our here There are fewer routes to other places, and in order to reduce costs, most of the people who come and go are some small and medium-sized passenger planes, even if there are special needs, most of them will choose to go to the provincial capital, after all, the high-speed rail is also very convenient now, of course, fewer passengers are only one aspect, the most important thing is that the plane not only needs to pay money for take-off and landing, but also usually docks at the airport, it is necessary to charge a certain feeIf there are no passengers, then these expenses alone are enough to crush an airline......"
Li Dong suddenly realized, it turns out that there is so much knowledge in it.
However, he uses airplanes to transport goods, and it has nothing to do with whether there are passengers or not, it's just that it's a bit of a waste to pull the goods and come back by air.
Hey?
Li Dong suddenly thought of what Yang Chengyong had just said.
"Mayor Yang, you just said that there are no airlines in our province?" Li Dong asked suspiciously, "It stands to reason that the provincial city is a first-tier city, and the throughput is not small. ”
"The provincial city doesn't say it, but just because there are more people doesn't mean there must be an airline, right?" Yang Chengyong said with a smile.
Li Dong nodded, what he said was also right.
"Mayor Yang, Boss Li, I just asked two airlines, and they said that they can provide cargo plane leasing services, but if it is from Qingzhou, I am afraid that the cost will be higher, and it can only provide small and medium-sized cargo planes. Niu Jiang said embarrassedly.
