How can Boeing not be crazy? It has a market, it has a cost advantage, it has sales channels, and it may be able to drive more purchases. The most important thing is that Wang Xinlan said that the purchase order of 100 cargo planes can pay a deposit of no less than 15%.

In other words, Boeing will immediately receive the full payment for 15 freighters, and what is the difference between this and pie in the sky? With this money, there is no need to think about any financing plan, and the project can be launched immediately, and the construction will start soon.

Of course, Wang Xinlan is definitely not a philanthropist, and even if she will not do charity to Boeing, she needs to attach a lot of harsh terms to give such preferential payment terms. For example, super preferential prices, such as the exclusive purchase right of a certain freighter in Asia within 3 years, such as the convenient service of aircraft maintenance and so on.

Boeing was not surprised by these conditions mentioned by Wang Xinlan, but they felt that Alina Wang really wanted to do this business, and the credibility of this order was higher.

Besides, any condition is negotiable, and it is impossible to say whatever it is.

Therefore, when Wang Xinlan left Boeing's headquarters, Boeing immediately began to prepare for an inspection team to China.

……

Early the next morning, Boss Mu hesitated again and again and dialed Director Jing's landline at 8 o'clock. This time, it was the officer on duty who answered the phone and asked directly: "Comrade Mu Dong, hello, what is the matter?"

"Hello, I have an urgent matter that needs to be reported to Director Jing, please convey it. Mu Dong said politely.

"Okay, can you tell me what kind of thing it is?"

"It's about the Boeing freighter purchase, I reported to Director Jing before, and now there are some changes. ”

"Okay, we'll get that on as soon as possible. ”

……

At 10 o'clock, Mu Dong's mobile phone rang.

"What's the matter, Mu Dong?" Director Jing asked slowly.

"Director Jing, Boeing feels that the delivery time of the order for the purchase of 50 freighters is not guaranteed, and we have put forward a proposal to settle the passenger-to-cargo transformation project in China, and the other party is very interested, and may send an inspection team in the near future. Mu Dong said cautiously.

"Oh, settling in China can guarantee the speed of delivery?" asked Director Jing.

Mu Dong hurriedly introduced the one-stop idea of repurchasing old models on the spot and transforming them on the spot, and Director Jing immediately understood the super convenience of this plan when he heard it. Moreover, at the same time, he felt Mu Dong's careful thinking, and praised in his mouth: "It's a good plan, you came up with it?"

"Hehe, I suddenly came up with a flash of inspiration, and later discussed it with my colleagues a little. "Boss Mu is not modest.

"Well, if it can be successfully landed, it will also be a good boost to the development of our aviation industry. Mu Dong, I have a heart. Director Jing finally pointed out the far-reaching significance of this matter.

Mu Dongdao: "It's just a bit of a rush, my original plan was to get in touch slowly, slowly figure it out, and start the official operation in three or five months, but the reaction from Boeing was too strong." ”

"You think too much, it's important to do things. And as you know, we're working on our own big aircraft program, and time is running out. Director Jing said: "The reception of the Boeing delegation will be arranged by the relevant departments, don't worry." ”

……

After hanging up the phone, Mu Dong felt that he was really thinking too much.

Also, although the November meeting is very important, things have to be done, and if everything is postponed after the meeting, it will inevitably create a huge backlog of affairs, which will be terrible.

Now that Director Jing has made a move, it means that this matter is included in the scope of Xu Shiping's work, and it will definitely be much smoother to advance.

Mu Dong calculated the time difference, and then sent an email to Wang Xinlan, explaining some of the situation.

That night, Wang Xinlan called and reported two news.

First, Boeing has already set up a delegation led by its vice president, and then the delegation contacted her and asked her to contact the relevant departments of the Chinese government.

Second, the Chinese Embassy in the United States also contacted Wang Xinlan and asked her to contact Boeing in the center.

In other words, both sides regard Wang Xinlan as a natural liaison, and Mr. Wang is very happy about this. A super large order eventually spun off into a big project at the national strategic level, and it is a matter of pride for her to be part of it.

At the same time, the actions of Boeing and the embassy show that both sides attach great importance to this cooperation and have shown the fastest response speed and the greatest sincerity.

"Brother Mu, it seems that I am going back to China ahead of schedule, I have only been here for less than half a month, and I have said that I will be out for a month. Wang Xinlan's words sounded like a complaint, but in fact, there was pride in his voice.

"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you, I won't take care of it. Mu Dong smiled.

"Hmph, you're going to push me to the forefront. ”

"Those who can work harder. ”

……

Two days later, on October 8, Wang Xinlan returned to China on the Gulfstream G550, but she did not return to Quancheng, but stayed in the capital.

The next day, October 9, the Boeing delegation landed at Beijing Airport on a 747 passenger plane and was warmly received by relevant parties. Subsequently, the two sides held cordial and friendly consultations, with Wang Xinlan participating in the center.

Two days later, on October 11, the news came that Mo Yan had won the Nobel Prize for Literature that had excited hundreds of millions of Chinese. This news made Mu Dong stunned and annoyed.

Ignoring this great news, and dealing with this matter in his mind as something that has already happened, what a pig's brain!

If you pay attention to this matter earlier, you will slowly get closer to Mr. Mo Yan in the past few years, and let him be a consultant for Dadong Group or something, and now as soon as the news comes out, the popularity of Dadong Group will not be able to rise slowly?

Sure enough, the benefits can't be taken together. Boss Mu finally comforted himself like this.

Another day passed, as soon as I went to work on October 12, Boss Mu received a notice that Senior Officer Jiang was invited.

Mu Dongxin said, is it for the sake of the literary award? Maybe the province wants to hold some ceremony and let the Dadong Group sponsor it?

Well, there is really this possibility, one is a literary giant, the other is a business giant, they are all shining business cards in the province, if the province really holds hands and joins forces, it can really produce a good cluster effect.

Boss Mu thought about it and went to Jiang Xiaoliang's office.

As it turned out, he was thinking too much!

"Do you know that our province has its own aircraft maintenance company?" asked Senior Officer Jiang with a scowl in his face.

"I don't know. "Boss Mu was at a loss.

"How do you really do it, how does your airline work, how does the plane overhaul and maintain?" Jiang Xiaoliang asked angrily.

Mu Dongxin said, if I have to worry about these things, then I will be exhausted. But he said: "There are two situations for our aircraft, one is a new aircraft, and the other is an aircraft that has just completed the conversion of passengers to freighters, and there is no need for overhaul in a short period of time, so I really don't know." ”

Jiang Xiaoliang snorted and said dissatisfiedly: "You don't care about the industrial pattern of the province at all, what kind of passenger-to-cargo project do you do, and you don't consider the enterprises in the province?"

Mu Dong was startled.

The matter of the implementation of the Boeing passenger conversion project is still being discussed, and it is still in the stage of secrecy, so how can Senior Officer Jiang know about it?

Mu Dong hurriedly laughed and said: "Senior official Jiang, this matter, you have to listen to my explanation, this is not the director of the well who has taken care of it, and asked for secrecy, where do I dare to worry about it." ”

Okay, this statement is quite powerful, Jiang Xiaoliang snorted again, and continued: "Anyway, it has spread now, as a native of Ludong, and it is said that you are the direct promoter of this project, you must have a posture in this matter." Let's put it this way, the order of 100 passenger-to-cargo aircraft is divided into 20 enterprises in the province, which is not embarrassing for you, right?"

What the hell is order splitting?

Mu Dong was puzzled in his heart, of course, he didn't dare to make any promises easily, and said seriously: "Senior official Jiang, don't worry, this is an unshirkable thing, and I will definitely help fight for it." ”

"It's not about fighting for it, it's about having to get it. Jiang Xiaoliang's tone eased, and he said seriously: "Mu Dong, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, if Lu Donggu Company can get the split passenger-to-cargo order, this will have an extremely beneficial effect on the entire aviation industry in our province, you must go all out." ”

Mu Dong shrank his neck imperceptibly, and said with a smile: "Senior Officer Jiang, you must know that my ability is limited. ”

"Of course it won't all depend on you, the province will also do its best, the key is that we have to be in lockstep, that's no problem, right?"

"Absolutely. ”

……

After saying goodbye and leaving, Mu Dong immediately contacted Wang Xinlan, but the other party's mobile phone was turned off, and he should still be attending the talks.

Alas, what else to talk about! What is said to be confidential, there is no secret to be protected now!

In Mu Dong's hand, he held a document, which was a briefing on the Ludonggu Aircraft Engineering Company provided by Senior Officer Jiang.

This is an aircraft engineering company located in Quancheng Airport, mainly doing some aircraft inspection, maintenance, structural overhaul and complete aircraft spraying and other businesses. To Mu Dong's surprise, as early as 2007, the company had completed a Boeing 737-400 passenger-to-freighter conversion project, and it was the first passenger-to-freighter conversion of this model outside the United States, which was of great significance.

It's a pity that such a significant event didn't make any waves in the industry at the beginning, and it is estimated that there was a problem with publicity, and it is also possible that Boeing did not allow publicity at all.

In any case, this company does have two brushes, and if possible, it can really undertake some passenger-to-cargo orders, but I don't know how Boeing and the relevant departments consider it comprehensively.

Moreover, Mu Dong thought of a possibility. Since Ludong Province is fighting, it is definitely not one or two that are surrounded by two people, and the situation has become complicated for this passenger-to-cargo landing project.
