Chapter 1080: There is an old man in the family, and there is a treasure

When Boss Mu was a small citizen in another time and space, he also sold electronic products online, although the business was average, but the contact with the courier was carried out every day. Therefore, he has some understanding of the development of the express delivery industry, so he founded Dadong Express in this time and space.

In the memory of Boss Mu, the express delivery industry is fully aviation, which should be a matter after 2015, and if any courier company did not buy a few planes for a while, the couriers were embarrassed to greet others. Mu Dong still clearly remembers the proud expression of a courier of Yuantong Express who introduced how many planes his family had bought in front of him. And Mu Dong remembered that it was said that the aircraft purchased by Yuantong was converted from passenger to cargo in Shanghai.

Now that I think about it, it's a genius idea.

China's aviation industry has experienced decades of development, especially after the rapid development of reform and opening up, and there are many old Boeing aircraft flying in the sky of China. With the emergence of new models with more cost-effective fuel, these old Boeing aircraft are facing obsolescence, and their best place to go is to convert passengers to freighters.

Therefore, buying back old Boeing planes in China, refitting them in factories in China, and then selling them to Chinese express companies is simply a great business for Boeing.

Needless to say, the convenience of buyback-processing-selling one-stop, the low labor cost does not need to be mentioned, the most suitable thing is that China's old Boeing aircraft are in batches, when they were purchased in large quantities, and now it is time to eliminate them in a centralized manner.

Therefore, after 2015, Boeing has carried out too many passenger-to-cargo projects in China.

The passenger-to-cargo project landed in China, the benefits are also obvious, the old models can be sold for money, the express company can save money, and the biggest gain is to train a valuable talent team. Because, in the process of converting passengers to goods, the reconstruction team needs to contact a large number of technical materials and master a large number of technical means. So there is such a saying: the conversion of passengers to cargo is only one step away from making an airplane.

Based on such considerations, after hearing Wang Xinlan mention Boeing's prediction of the delivery time, Boss Mu had a flash of inspiration and thought of the proposal of converting passengers to cargo to land in China. His idea is to accelerate the trajectory of history that was previously inherent two to three years in advance.

In this way, to put it mildly, Dadong Group will definitely be able to gain from participating in this project, and at the largest, it can be regarded as building a platform for the training and training of domestic aircraft maintenance and manufacturing talents two or three years in advance. If you report this matter to Director Jing, you will have the lining and face, how good.

As for the purchase intention from 50 to 100, it doesn't really matter at all. To put it mildly, this is equivalent to the monopoly of the Dadong Group on the sales of these aircraft, and with the development of the domestic express delivery industry, reselling cargo planes can also make money.

Moreover, the order for 100 freighters is more attractive to Boeing and will definitely prompt the other party to make up its mind.

Boss Mu thought too much, he didn't have relevant accurate data in his memory, of course, his status as a citizen in another time and space would not pay attention to such data, even if he saw it, he would forget it in a blink of an eye.

In fact, in 2016, when Boeing launched the 737-800 passenger-to-freighter conversion project in Shanghai, it only had 55 orders in hand.

……

Boss Mu took some time to explain to Wang Xinlan the convenience and operability of the passenger-to-cargo project landing in China, and asked her to talk to Boeing in a high-profile manner.

"Xin Lan, I personally think that Boeing will be willing, first of all, the order is guaranteed, secondly, the process is very perfect, and finally, you must know that Boeing has a maintenance company in Shanghai, and the project is very convenient. Mu Dong said.

"What if you don't want to?" Wang Xinlan asked.

"Hmm...... That's fine. In that case, you tell Boeing that you plan to try your luck with Airbus through the Chinese government with this order for 100 freighters. Haha, they're definitely going to be in a hurry. Mu Dong smiled.

Wang Xinlan was stunned, and immediately understood that what Mu Dong said was really not a joke, and the failure of the Airbus conversion project was because there was no order. If this order is really thrown, Airbus is really likely to agree.

The reason is the same, in the sky of China, there are too many Airbus planes flying, and they are also facing the problem of eliminating models, and they are also eliminating models in batches.

"Understood, Brother Mu. In fact, I still have an idea, if this project can really be implemented in China, we can purchase old Boeing aircraft ourselves, and let them help them convert passengers to freighters. Wang Xinlan said excitedly.

"Haha, little girl, you're thinking too much. From a capital point of view, this is indeed more economical. However, this is equivalent to robbing Boeing of revenue, and people will not agree. You're too greedy. ”

"Hey, too. Brother Mu, the recent earnings of the American Future Company are not good, and the price of gold has fluctuated too much. ”

"It doesn't matter, you can't make enough money. ”

"By the way, Brother Mu, there is another matter, I heard that Comrade Lao Hou had an accident?" Wang Xinlan suddenly changed his tone and asked mysteriously.

Mu Dong was taken aback and asked sharply, "How do you know? Who told you?" His first feeling was that Xiao Xiao failed to keep it a secret and told Wang Xinlan.

Wang Xinlan was startled, and hurriedly said: "What's the matter, what's the matter?" Brother Mu, I saw it in the newspaper, and the report here is very detailed, saying that he was absent from any meeting. ”

Foreign media?

Mu Dong was stunned, damn it, the nose of the foreign media is really better than that of a dog.

After hesitating for a moment, Mu Dong said in a low voice: "I have heard about it, but it is still a secret here, you pay attention to it, if there is any news, tell me at any time." ”

Wang Xinlan: "......"

……

As soon as the call with Wang Xinlan ended, Zhu Xuesong came to report his work in a hurry. After intensive consultations in recent days, the cooperation of the express cabinet project has finally formed a preliminary framework.

Originally, many express companies were optimistic about this project, and the previous intention has been determined. Even when the Dadong Group encountered some public opinion crisis, the cooperation of this project was still slowly recommended, and now that the crisis of the Dadong Group has passed, the relevant negotiations have also been on the fast track, and now it is finally completed.

According to the agreement, the express cabinet project will be spun off from Dadong Express and a new organization called "Honeycomb Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd." will be established to undertake cooperation matters.

Among them, Dadong Express with its name nationwide 32,000 groups of express cabinet assets and management network, a price of 2.2 billion yuan, holding 55% of the shares of Honeycomb Technology, Shunfeng Express injected 600 million yuan, holding 15% of the shares, Tiantong Express, Yuantong Express, Zhongtong Express, Yunda Express, Besitong Express and Tianbang Express 6 express companies, shared the remaining 30% of the shares, each injected 200 million yuan, holding 5%.

It can be seen that the express cabinet project is a heavy asset project, and it can also be seen that although the express delivery industry has not yet achieved explosive growth, the current life of various express companies has been very moist, and it seems to be very easy to take out hundreds of millions of yuan.

As a result, Honeycomb Technology has 32,000 sets of express cabinets and 1.8 billion yuan in cash, becoming the largest express cabinet operating company in China. We initially plan to use one year to add 30,000 sets of express cabinets across the country, and then start a round of financing to push the project to the capital market, and then use one to two years to develop the number of express cabinets to more than 100,000 groups through additional and acquisition and other ways.

Everyone agreed that Mu Dong would serve as the chairman of Honeycomb Technology, Wang Wei and the bosses of the other six express companies would serve as directors, Wang Wei would serve as the general manager, and Zhu Xuesong would serve as the deputy general manager.

Wang Wei served as the general manager of Honeycomb Technology, which was Mu Dong's decision after careful consideration, and it was absolutely impossible to pull an excellent company like Shunfeng Express onto the warship, without showing some sincerity. Moreover, with Wang Wei's personal ability and style of acting, he is definitely worthy of this position.

The most important thing is that everyone intends to push Hive Technology to the capital market. Therefore, from now on, it is very necessary to abandon the idea of a small court and seek a broader space for development.

Well, the cake is finished, the organizational structure is set, the future development model has also reached a consensus, and the express cabinet project is only left with the last few details of the run-in, just waiting for the final signing.

In the end, it was decided to finalize the text of the contract within two weeks, and the signing date was set for October 16.

……

The next day, National Day. Early in the morning, Mu Dong took Xiao Xiao and Xin'er and flew to the capital on the Gulfstream G550 to visit the old man Liu Yuanshan.

As usual, major holidays are the busiest time for everyone.

For Mudong, the ecological association will hold an annual meeting, Dadong Shengtong Food Company will be put into production, and Dadong Tourism Company will also have important publicity activities. But after thinking about it, Mu Dong still put visiting the old hero in the first place. For other things, the annual meeting of the SEE Association can take a morning off, and the production of Dadong Shengtong can be slightly postponed for a few days.

For the people of the Liu family, the National Day is also the busiest day, the nature of the work of the three brothers of the Liu family determines that it is impossible for them to take leave, and Liu Jingyun of course also needs to stick to his job in Shuhe County.

Therefore, when Mu Dong rushed to the courtyard where the old hero lived with his wife and daughter, only Liu Wei was alone at the door to greet him.

In fact, Liu Ming wanted to come to greet Mu Dong the most, and he also had time, but the ban on him not being allowed to enter the courtyard had not been lifted, so he didn't dare to show his head.

Liu Wei greeted with a smile, then took Xin'er from Xiao Xiao's arms and led everyone into the courtyard.

In the courtyard, Liu Yuanshan stood happily with a cane, surrounded by an equally happy old lady. Seeing Mu Dong's family come in, the old hero took two steps forward and said enthusiastically: "Mu Dong is here, the whole family is here, welcome." ”

Mu Dong hurried up and said, "Grandpa Liu, Grandma Liu, let's take a look at your second elder." ”

Liu Yuanshan nodded, smiled and said, "Okay, Mu Dong, I'm very happy, you are a good young man, you have a general understanding of the overall situation." ”

Mu Dong smiled: "Grandpa Liu, you praised it falsely. It was you and a few other elders who helped me to achieve a little bit of success, and I have always been grateful. ”

Liu Yuanshan said with a smile: "Mu Dong, no one is perfect, it's good if you can understand." ”

Between the two of them, they have reached an understanding and consensus on key issues, which makes Boss Mu feel a little emotional, there is really an old family member, if there is a treasure.
