Chapter 879: Airlines

Xia Bingguo's Audi A6 ran happily along the airport at high speed.

Along the way, Xia Bingguo guessed a variety of possibilities. The biggest possibility is that the young president wants to talk to him about the hangar of Zhongyun Airport.

Ever since Behemoth Industries bought two transport planes, these two transport planes have never been idle.

These two transport planes carry goods in the sky all day long, and the natural placement of their hangars, and the warehouses used to store these goods, are quite important. Behemoth Industries has the money to rent the hangar for a year, but wouldn't it be more cost-effective if it could grit its teeth and buy the entire hangar?

In addition to this, Xia Bingguo couldn't think of anything else that could be related to the giant beast industry.

Half an hour later, Xia Bingguo arrived at the Giant Beast Industrial Building. Under the reception of two warm employees, he met the owner of the peregrine falcon, the legendary Mr. Ye, very smoothly.

The first time he met at close range, Xia Bingguo was very happy, but he was not too excited. After the greetings, Xia Bingguo, who was a little excited in his heart, sat on the sofa.

The people who mix in the airport in Zhongyun City, no one knows the name of the giant beast industry. Not only the peregrine falcon but also the two busy transport planes, the last time hundreds of special planes and cargo planes from all over the world gathered at the airport. And the shocking scene of hundreds of charter flights to Europe from the night until the early morning of the next day was made by this company.

While sipping tea, the two chatted after greetings.

Ye Qing sat opposite and smiled at the man who was much older than him: "Manager Xia, I see that there is still a large open space on the west side of the airport, does that land belong to your airport?"

"It belongs to the airport, but our airport has no right to deal with this land. Xia Bingguo said seriously: "Mr. Ye, you know that Zhongyun Airport is more on the side of our local government in terms of ownership." But the Civil Aviation Administration is stuck with all the project reviews at the airport, and we have always wanted to use that land to expand the two runways. However, the General Administration has not given approval, saying that the passenger and cargo flow of our Zhongyun Airport does not meet the standards for expanding the runway. ”

"If you don't meet the standard, you will lose money after you open it. ”

"There are strict restrictions on building height standards around the airport, you can't expand the runway, and it's not interesting to do anything else, so it's just left empty. ”

"What about the ramp or logistics warehouse?" Ye Qing nodded.

"Then the approval is no problem. Xia Bingguo smiled embarrassedly, "We have always wanted to upgrade Zhongyun Airport to an international airport, but the Civil Aviation Administration has always been willing. That's why I got stuck on the runway. ”

"Mr. Ye, you think, if you want to build a runway now, it must be the best runway in international standards, so it can't be said if it is not upgraded to an international airport. ”

"But you can repair hangars and warehouses without even approval. Anyway, in the hands of our airport, as long as there is a need for this. ”

"Does Mr. Ye have this need?"

Xia Bingguo was slightly surprised, and on the way here, he guessed that the young president wanted to buy the hangar. He is also mentally prepared in this regard, although the airport will make a lot less money, but who made the giant beast industry the god of wealth in Zhongyun City?

Even if he doesn't agree, the government will take the initiative to send the contract to his door. At most, it is just a game of side-playing, turning the contract into a lease contract for many years at a low price.

Did he want to build a separate hangar?

Other companies must not even think about it, and the Behemoth Industry should be fine.

"No, I want to ......" Ye Qing put down the teacup, paused for a moment, and said seriously: "I want to build an airport." ”

Xia Bingguo obviously did not have this psychological preparation, and the construction of the airport naturally required planes, and there were planes......

He was stunned for a few seconds before he said uncertainly: "Ye... Are you always interested in creating an airline?"

If someone says this in front of him, he must listen to it as a joke, but the person in front of him really has this strength.

Therefore, Xia Bingguo slowed down his speech and thought: "Huaxia is quite open in the field of civil aviation, because the aviation business is mainly responsible for international communication. We don't have much say in international aviation, so we can be in line with international standards. ”

"It's just Mr. Ye, as far as I know, we have a total of fifteen private enterprises in China that have established airlines. However, from the first company to be put into commercial operation in 05, most of the private aviation companies have now collapsed. ”

"There are many reasons for the collapse, on the one hand, the airline is too expensive. Mr. Ye, your company has three planes, and you know how much money these three planes burn. Therefore, aircraft alone requires tens of billions of capital investment. ”

"You have to make a profit when you buy an airplane, so some airlines are trying to save money. It will not only save money in labor costs, but also in oil and logistics maintenance. ”

"In this province, the safety of passengers may be affected, and the people who can take the plane still know more than the ordinary people, and now the network is developed, and the reputation of the airlines and the quality of service they provide can easily reach the ears of passengers. ”

"Naturally, passengers prefer to take Air China flights. ”

"However, I think Mr. Ye is interested in starting an airline, and it must be in the field of cargo transportation. Among the domestic private airlines, the main cargo is SF Airlines, which has developed very well. ”

"We have plans to set up an airline not only to build airports, but also to build our own planes. Ye Qing was not surprised that the other party's eyes were about to pop out.

Building an airport is simple, building an airplane is simple, Huaxia has worked hard in this area for decades, and has not worked hard to come up with a reason.

Xia Bingguo is also the head of the airport, of course, he knows better than anyone else the technical difficulties involved. Now he heard his empty white teeth say that he was going to build an airplane, and he looked demented and disbelieving, which was normal.

"Manager Xia is not too surprised, we have plans in this regard, but we will definitely not be like those unreliable small companies, boasting everywhere that we are going to build airplanes. ”

"I'm not too sure if the plane can be built. However, it is not difficult to build airports and airlines, so it will be put on the agenda first. Ye Qing didn't dare to say that he was only 99% sure, and he had to be low-key.

"It's just how to build airports, how to set up airlines, we don't have the slightest experience in that. ”

Xia Bingguo held his breath for a long time, finally spit it out, rubbed his face, and hurriedly packed the ticket and said that there is no problem with these two aspects, whether it is experience or approval, help can be provided.

But in the end, the CAAC will not approve the adjacent piece of land to Behemoth Industries, because the two airports cannot be so close to each other.

He had seen engineers from Behemoth Industries at the airport more than once, involved in the day-to-day maintenance of the three planes. Not to mention anything else, just the Peregrine Falcon, which has the ability to fly at supersonic speeds, no one in the airport dares to maintain it, and there is no technology to maintain it.

Coupled with the economic strength of the giant beast industry, he certainly believes that the airline they established in the future, even if it throws money hard, can become the first domestic civil aviation.

"Mr. Ye, you really need an airline, and you have chartered hundreds of flights in the past six months. ”

"This money is all earned by outsiders, and I feel distressed when I look at it. ”

Airports belong to airports, and airlines belong to airlines.

In the case of Zhongyun Airport, for example, they only provide a place for aircraft belonging to different airlines to take off and land.

There are also logistics, oil, maintenance, passengers, cargo.

Even if 10,000 planes land here, it is the airlines that make a lot of money, and they only make a hard-earned money at the airport.

If the giant beast industry buys dozens of cargo planes to run the goods, not only will it not lose money, but it can also make a lot of money.

Xia Bingguo felt that their company's own cargo alone could make these planes fly every day. If others want to handle the air transport business, they may not do it.

It's just that Xia Bingguo's ideas are too conservative.

The real purpose of the Behemoth Industry is not freight transportation at all.
