920 Two "small investments" (Happy May Day holiday)
(Thanks to my friends for the encouragement, thank you for watching the sunrise at midnight, pouring a large piece of air, Yi Xiaoshi Lion, Yuvuncch, Metal Lord, Zhuzb, Nian Xiaozhao, Shuishui's Book House, phantom2002, rich businessman monthly pass encouragement)
Starting an airline is a very tedious and important matter. Kroenke is very cautious, and even Haya, who usually doesn't care much about these investments, is very cautious.
"Okay, let's have some juice first, and then we'll continue the discussion. Seeing his baby girl coming over with a big pot of juice, Liu Heming said with a smile.
Just now, the big guy has talked about a round of small things, although it is basically nonsense, Havard is even on the side with Tang Shenshen video, Liu Heming feels that the first round of negotiations is still very successful, at least the atmosphere is very warm.
Kroenke just scratched his head a little, for he found that he was discussing the matter very solemnly, but they seemed to be in the nature of a joke.
If this aviation company is really set up, will it be able to make a profit? Will it become yellow in half a year? This is the first time he has cooperated with Liu Heming in a serious way, and he always feels a little uneasy.
Don't worry, the juice made by Alex is still quite delicious, drink some first, and then think about other things.
"Actually, I don't think there is any problem with the investment of our people in terms of funds. The four of us, if we get together, how can we make it up. After holding the little guy Alex into his arms, Liu Heming said.
"The key is that we should discuss what kind of way to operate, and then there is a good prospect in the future based on Xiangshui Town. ”
Kroenke sighed in his heart, and finally returned to the topic, cooperating with Liu Heming seems to be really "worried".
"Let's think about it, if we develop together with the aircraft leasing business and the aviation business, what is the prospect, and can we guarantee that we will not lose money?" Liu Heming continued.
"In fact, about 40% of the world's civil aircraft are in the hands of leasing companies. Kroenke said.
"The number of aircraft in the GECAS fleet has already exceeded two thousand, and the number of aircraft in the fleet of AerCap has exceeded one and a half thousand. Compared to them, we really don't have much advantage. ”
"However, judging from the future prospects of Xiangshui Town, I think the number of business jets demanded by Xiangshui Town in the future can exceed 50 business jets. ”
"Our airline still needs to work hard if it wants to have enough passengers, whether it is Xiangshui Town or your ranch. Otherwise, the current advantages are still very weak and cannot support the operation of air transport in the future. ”
"Right now, you have only three advantages in your ranch. Giant pandas Lily and Jiajia, a carnival in the ranch and a future horse race. ”
"Lily and Jiajia are fascinating, but it's great to be able to provide 30% of our airline's customer base. Carnivals and horse races are okay when they are held. However, both of these events are phased, and the number of visitors plummets after the start and end. ”
"The construction of Xiangshui Town is still very good, and there will be universities in the future, which can also provide a strong support for airlines. ”
"But I think if we can hold more events in Xiangshui Town so that tourists can come and participate at any time, that's the foundation that can make our airline profitable. ”
"Because this company is based on Xiangshui Town, and the current Xiangshui Town, compared with those international metropolises, there is still a big gap. ”
Hearing Kroenke's words, everyone thought about it carefully, and this was indeed the case. To put it bluntly, the current Xiangshui Town should have no problem attracting tourists to maintain its own operations. But there is still a big gap to support the operations of airlines.
"Kroenke, does it mean that it is very difficult to develop the aviation industry with our Xiangshui Town as the center?" asked Liu Heming.
Kroenke smiled and nodded, "At least judging from the current situation, be prepared to lose money." ”
"We should operate as a low-cost airline, but in the operation, we also need to provide better service to our customers. All of these need to be financially backed. How's that, do you have the guts to try it?"
Liu Heming rolled his eyes, "What don't you dare to try, in fact, for me, the risk is not very large, so I don't plan to occupy too many shares this time, but in terms of the proportion of capital contribution, it will not be reduced." ”
You can't go all the good things to your side, you're all good friends, so you have to be as "fair" as possible. Obviously, you are the biggest beneficiary.
Compared with the revenue of the airlines, more tourists will still spend their money on Xiangshui Town and their own ranches. You can't let people see the money back, and let yourself be happy alone.
"Havard and I both think it's a good investment, and then we'll just have to take care of the financial and operational aspects and nothing else will be involved. Haya thought for a moment and said.
After finishing speaking, everyone looked at Kroenke in unison.
"In other words, you're all just contributing and nothing else?" asked Kroenke, a little depressed.
Liu Heming and Haya smiled and nodded.
He was even more depressed, this matter was started by Liu Heming, and now all the heavy responsibilities have fallen on him. What's going on?
Although I am also a little excited, it is only because I have never done business in this field that I am so excited, but not because I occupy a large role.
"Kroenke, we also feel that you should be the main manager in terms of management, and we are only responsible for funding. Liu Heming said with a smile.
"Whether it is for me or Haya, we will suffer a lot of difficulties in the future operation. You are an old rich man in the United States, even if you enter the aviation industry, you will not attract any other attention. ”
"You can arrange someone to do this, and my side will fully cooperate. Including the various services that will be provided on the plane in the future, as long as it is necessary for me to do here, I will definitely complete it. ”
"Well, I also need someone to do a survey and then see how much money and operations to put in. Kroenke said helplessly.
He is actually very confident in this project, and the source of his confidence is also Xiangshui Town. Although there is still a big gap between Xiangshui Town and the international metropolis, the development potential of Xiangshui Town is still very large.
And it takes a long time for this airline to go from project approval to operation. Such a long time is also enough for the development needs of Xiangshui Town.
Even if this matter is temporarily settled, it is mainly based on Kroenke, supplemented by everyone. The detailed investment and share ratio will also depend on how much money is needed to do this.
"Dexter, when are you going to invest in Qatar?" Haya looked at Liu Heming again and asked.
"We can give you all the preferential terms, land, taxes, employment of foreign workers. As long as you have invested in the past, this matter has been agreed by many people. ”
"Well, I want to go too, but I have some concerns. Liu Heming sighed.
"When we come back from our trip to France, how about we announce this matter? The location and size of the land are up to you. When the time comes, I'll let Suzanne talk to you about it, and I'll personally downplay it. ”
"Preferably, the area of the first batch of land is not too large. The impact that may be caused by this will be much smaller, and we can slowly expand the production area in the future. ”
Haya has asked herself many times, but the current international situation in Qatar is rather embarrassing. This matter can be regarded as a mixed blessing for me.
If you invest in the plantation industry in Qatar, I really don't know if many countries will also sanction you. But looking at the current situation, it doesn't seem to be as serious as I feared.
From an investment point of view, it is still possible.
"OK, Dexter, I'll do this here now, you can hire people directly there, and we can take care of arranging the travel of these employees. Havard shouted on the computer.
"The employees will be mainly from Huaxia, and it is more convenient to hire in Huaxia. However, I think you should cooperate well with visa matters. Liu Heming said with a smile.
"OK, these are minor issues, you don't have to worry about them. Havard smiled and nodded.
Although there has been no large-scale looting, the supplies in major supermarkets have been in a state of shortage.
It's true that Qatar has money, but the current situation is that there is money and no supplies. If Liu Heming can do the planting industry in Qatar, at least the supply of vegetables can be alleviated to some extent.
Two "small investments", even if they are finished, the small meeting will be directly dismissed. Haya hadn't been back to the ranch for a long time, and then she ran out with Alex.
"Are you really planning to invest in Qatar?" Kroenke asked curiously.
"There's no way, it's been a long time, and if it drags on any longer, it will affect my personal relationship with Haya and Hawad. Liu Heming smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Anyway, I'm just a simple business business, they can do whatever they want. In fact, who doesn't know what's going on this time, I don't think I'm a small company, and I can't include it in their eyes. ”
"Moreover, even if I engage in planting, it will only be a little bit of a supplement to Qatar's domestic living materials. It doesn't make a difference to the intentions of those of them. ”
"It's this airline, you have to deal with it as soon as possible. First and foremost, it is important to have an equal attitude towards all races. ”
"OK, we're just trying to make money, and we're equal to all our customers, and that's one of the criteria for service. Kroenke smiled and nodded.
He also knew that Liu Heming was so keen on this matter, not just to generate income for the ranch, but to argue with the people who had bullied him at the beginning.
