Chapter 1181: Unexpected Change
After a good night's sleep, Lin Xiao got up early the next morning and went out for breakfast.
Han Ya was going to the Military Commission to report last night's events to the leaders of the Military Commission, so Lin Xiao was the only one who went to breakfast.
It happened that Qiu Yucheng called him and said that he wanted to report something to him about aviation leasing, so Lin Xiao made an appointment with him to go to a nearby teahouse and have breakfast together.
Now it is more popular in the capital to go to the teahouse to have breakfast, of course, the price must be much more expensive than the fritters and tofu brain of the year, which also has some casual meaning.
After all, those office workers don't have such leisure and leisure, they need to go out early in the morning to catch the car, and then spend a long hour or two in the car, or even more, to accompany them for breakfast, is foreign fast food or meat buns and other more convenient to carry food, or, plus a bottle of nutrition express or something.
"Da Shao, come here." Qiu Yucheng had already come over, and when he saw Lin Xiao, he smiled and waved at him.
Lin Xiao parked the car and walked over.
Qiu Yucheng came earlier, he changed into a Cadillac off-road vehicle, it seems to be good, the whole person is in good condition, obviously he is also full of confidence and interest in the newly involved aviation leasing industry.
"Mr. Qiu has changed cars again, it looks good." Lin Xiao looked at his new car, and then said, "I gave you a Maybach 62S a few days ago, why didn't you drive it?" That car is worthy of your current status. ”
Lin Xiao purchased thirty Maybach 62S at once, Qiu Yucheng, as the number one asset manager under Lin Xiao, is naturally eligible to get one as a car, and when Lin Xiao gave it to him, he made it very clear that this is his special car, and the related expenses incurred every year can go through the company's accounts, but the car belongs to him.
And the annual salary he provided to Qiu Yucheng was also extremely generous, not only that, but also a part of the company's shares.
It's not that Lin Xiao is extravagant, but Qiu Yucheng has played a great role in his asset management, if he doesn't give him enough benefits, it will seem that Lin Xiao is a child.
For a stingy boss, how many employees are willing to do things for you, there must be none.
"It's good, but it's a little too ostentatious when you drive it." Qiu Yucheng smiled bitterly when he heard this, "And every time I drive out, basically there will be people who come to watch, today we are out to eat and talk about things, it is better to keep a low profile, a car of 100,000 yuan is just right to drive." ”
Lin Xiao nodded, he was still quite supportive of Qiu Yucheng's idea.
Although Qiu Yucheng's annual salary and dividends add up to more than 100 million yuan, he can be called the top professional manager in China, but his temperament has not changed much, and he still adheres to a low-key attitude, which is relatively rare.
Qiu Yucheng had already set the location, and the two sat on the top of the teahouse, basking in the morning sun through the floor-to-ceiling glass window, while eating and chatting.
Breakfast is actually very simple, it is two cages of siu mai, and a few meat and vegetarian hot dishes, the amount is very small, but it is very exquisite, a few bites of each, it adds up to full, and finally drinks a small bowl of soup, which is still very comfortable.
The environment of this teahouse is also very good, although the decoration is simple, but it makes people feel very comfortable, the software is also very in place, not far from the hall, there is a girl wearing a white dress, sitting there quietly playing the guzheng, so that the teahouse suddenly entered a very elegant atmosphere.
Probably because of this reason, the teahouse is basically quiet, and no one seems to be shouting or talking in the restaurant, even if there is any conversation, it is all whispering, and rarely speaking loudly.
"This place is really good, Mr. Qiu, you have found a good place to have breakfast." Lin Xiao was quite satisfied with this.
Although Lin Xiao is not very particular about eating, he has seen more in the past two years, so unconsciously, he has also improved his taste and enjoyment in all aspects, and the food stalls on the side of the road don't seem to go much, after all, sometimes he always goes out with beautiful women, and there are many troubles in those places.
Although Lin Xiao is not afraid of trouble, but there are too many flies, you will also feel upset, which will affect the mood of eating.
Overall, the teahouse where they came over for breakfast today was still very satisfying to Lin Xiao.
"Actually, as long as you look carefully, there are still many good restaurants in the capital." Qiu Yucheng said with a smile, "I also parked here temporarily last time, and I found that this teahouse is good, but it's a pity that drinking is not allowed here, which is a bit of a pity." ”
"Hehe, the style is completely different, if this place becomes a gathering place for a group of drunkards, it will not be so elegant." Lin Xiao also smiled.
The two laughed, and Qiu Yucheng told Lin Xiao about some of the recent situations in the company, especially the progress of the preparations, and then mentioned some recent changes.
"Private jet sales haven't been doing well lately, which should be a good thing for us." Qiu Yucheng said to Lin Xiao.
"Oh, why did this change, didn't the previous private jet bookings arrive the year after next?" After Lin Xiao heard this, he couldn't help but ask with some curiosity.
"There are some changes in politics that make people feel unstable." Qiu Yucheng said.
When Lin Xiao heard this, he couldn't help but be even more curious, and when he asked carefully, he realized that something had indeed happened recently, causing many wealthy people who planned to buy private jets to be a little hesitant, and many of them planned to unsubscribe.
Ten years ago, the private jet market began to emerge in China.
It is estimated that as of last year, there were less than 400 or so business jets in the mainland, however, this trend will slow down for some time to come.
"Recently, China ushered in a wave of business jet unsubscriptions, the chairman of a famous southwest enterprise, would rather lose millions of dollars than return their own private jets, another southern enterprise, a loss of 10 million US dollars is also willing to sell private jets at a cheap price, industry insiders said, this year domestic business jets will even reach about one-third of the total orders." Qiu Yucheng told Lin Xiao, "From a macro point of view, this is a chain reaction triggered by the ongoing deep anti-corruption campaign in China. ”
"At present, the government's anti-corruption campaign has caused the sales of private jets to decline somewhat, and since last year, the business jet market has ushered in a cold winter, the default rate of business jet orders has increased significantly, and it is not uncommon for customers to cancel or postpone deliveries in China." Qiu Yucheng said, "At present, there are some business jet companies in the market that are more affected, especially those companies that rely heavily on government consumption, and the government consumption of individual business jet companies accounts for more than 30%, and the orders of these companies must have been greatly affected." ”
Lin Xiao listened and nodded, in fact, he also knew that since the country began to crack down on extravagance and waste in the anti-corruption campaign, Huaxia, the world's fastest-growing business jet market, has begun to stagnate, and state-owned enterprise executives and government officials no longer charter planes, so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings.
Nowadays, the government and state-owned enterprises rarely have customers to rent business jets, similar to the real estate market bidding farewell to the golden age and entering the silver age, the business jet market is also undergoing corresponding changes.
"This, in fact, is a bit overkill...... Lin Xiao thought about it and said, "The essence of business jets is a means of transportation and business tools, the role is to improve work efficiency and promote business development, there is also a certain misunderstanding of business jets in society, business jets are not luxury labels, it is just a tool to help enterprises grow." Of course, because of the influence of the general environment, even private bosses now feel that owning a business jet will be more high-profile and easy to attract wolves, which is inevitable. ”
"Yes, the country's tax policy is not very favorable to business jets, there is currently a 17% value-added tax and 5% tariff on the purchase of business jets, which are tax-free in places such as the United States, Hong Kong Island and Singapore." Qiu Yucheng also sighed, "Moreover, the airspace of domestic airspace is limited, and domestic business jets theoretically apply for take-off and landing one day in advance, but in fact, it is okay to apply a few hours in advance, but you must apply." But that's not bad, because ten years ago, business jet flights required two weeks in advance. In addition, the cost of domestic business jets is the highest, and it costs 50,000 or 60,000 yuan to use the facilities for taking off and landing at Beijing or Pearl Airport. Although many second- and third-tier cities in China are also building special take-off and landing terminals for business jets, the docking costs are also high due to the small base of domestic business jets, which involves the problem of cost amortization. ”
"Anyway, this thing is still good for us, the market is so big, it may continue to expand, but there are fewer competitors, which is a good thing." Lin Xiao nodded.
The two talked about these things while eating slowly, and then chatted for a while about some of the company's operational issues.
Qiu Yucheng still admires Lin Xiao very much, although Lin Xiao is young, and he usually doesn't care much about the company's affairs, but his thinking is very advanced, and his mind is also very sober, often he can grasp the core of the problem when he says it casually, which gives Qiu Yucheng a lot of inspiration.
Such a boss is indeed the best choice for a professional manager like them, especially Lin Xiao is very generous in terms of money.
When the meal was almost finished, I suddenly heard the sound of the guzheng that was originally absent there, and suddenly it was cut off, and then I heard someone's exclamation.
"Hey, that girl seems to be a little wrong?" When Qiu Yucheng saw it, he stood up with some surprise.
