Chapter 2976 Be stronger!
When Qiwen Airlines first started, there were only 5 passenger aircraft.
When it came time to annex Xinnan Airlines in Xiangshui Province, it only added 12 737-400s. Later, taking advantage of Japan Airlines' heavy losses, it bought 25 good aircraft, including 7 737-800s.
The large passenger plane is now specially used to fly routes to Japan and South Korea.
However, with the continuous development of travel agencies and tourism websites, wealthy people continue to have the demand to travel abroad. These 42 passenger planes have long been operating at full capacity.
So in May last year, Qiwen Airlines bought 16 737-700s and 8 737-800s from Japan Airlines and All Nippon Airways. In addition, it annexed three small airlines and obtained 16 Airbus 320s and 12 Airbus 320s.
Airbus 321, a total of 94 aircraft, can be considered to be able to cope with current flight missions.
It’s not that Qiwen Airlines only knows how to buy second-hand aircraft. It’s because when purchasing new aircraft from aircraft companies, Airbus and Boeing, it takes at least 2 years from order placement to delivery, and it can take up to 3 years at a longer time.
, Qi Min Airlines can’t afford to wait.
Of course, Qiwen Airlines has also placed huge orders for 12 A320s and 10 A350s with Airbus, and 18 737-400s and 12 737-900s with Boeing, which will be delivered within the next ten years.
, in order to prepare for increasing the number of aircraft and gradually replacing aircraft that are approaching the end of their service life.
Regarding this, Luo Tangman only felt that it was great to follow a rich boss lady. This kind of satisfaction of not caring about the cost and being able to continuously supply equipment as long as the company needs development is really great!
And even the second-hand aircraft purchased now and acquired by airlines are not cheap. Converted to the aircraft, if it is in service within 5 years, the price is at least 70% of the new aircraft. If it is well maintained, it will still be 80%.
price.
With so many planes, one airport in Chengdu cannot accommodate them, and it is also a waste of resources. Therefore, there are 40 planes. The first main airport takes off and lands at Changsha Airport, where Qi Min Airlines owns 10% of the shares, which is quite a lot.
So I have my own base.
Changsha is not far from Chengdu. It has good advantages to travel to Indonesia, Malaysia, and Singapore from Changsha. It is also convenient to reach South Korea and Japan via the capital.
From the Chengdu Airport, it is most convenient to go directly to Vietnam, Thailand, Maldives, and Malaysia, while to Japan and South Korea, you need to transfer through Dongfang.
In this way, citizens of Dongfang and Capital, the two largest cities in China, can also sign up for tour groups to take cheap and safe Qiwen Airlines to travel to Japan and South Korea.
The main base of Qiwen Airlines is the first Chengdu, the second Changsha, the third Capital, the fourth Dongfang, the fifth Guangdong, and the sixth Lin'an. Basically, flights take off and land in these six cities, flying to each other.
time, and tourist countries in Asia.
Qiwen Travel Agency mainly relies on these places to establish its outlets. For example, Caiyun, Qianzhou, and Yuzhou are near Rongcheng; Xiangbei and Xiangxi are near Changsha; Yanzhao, Liaodong, and Jinwei are near the capital; Dongfang
Nearby are Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, near Lin'an are Jiangnan and southern Fujian, and on the Guangdong side are eastern Guangdong and southern Fujian, which basically covers the most developed areas in China.
This also causes some inconvenience, but from a business perspective, this is the most economical and cost-effective. If you place the airport in other areas, the cost and output will not be directly proportional at all.
Fortunately, there is also the Internet now, and you can purchase various travel products through the Internet. When the time comes, you can take a car or plane to the six major bases of Qiwen Airlines, and you can also successfully participate in a tour group.
In any case, with the continuous vigorous development of Qiwen Airlines, Qiwen Travel Network, and Qiwen Travel Agency, the scale of Qiwen Group is now much larger than a year ago, and its current value has exceeded 150 billion. Qiwen Group
Aviation has a valuation of 120 billion, and Sichuan Airlines' shares have been reduced to 1.4%. This is the result of them investing some funds, otherwise it can basically be ignored.
However, Jia Yuwen, who owns Qiwen Group, does not take care of the group company's affairs on weekdays. She only looks at the reports and various other operating data every month, and listens to Luo Tangman, the accounting firm, and the law firm.
It’s just the review report.
This is the legendary hands-off shopkeeper.
However, she is not afraid that Luo Tangman and others will deceive her. With her husband here, who would dare to harm her?
Hearing Xiao Qi ask about Qiwen Group, Jia Yuwen nodded, "Come to think of it, when Mr. Luo came over a few days ago, he mentioned that there is something wrong with the airport checkpoints in Vietnam and Thailand recently, and they always make excuses to make things difficult for us during our travels.
People who are united and free."
"Why?" Xiao Qi asked in surprise.
"It's not just about money." Jia Yuwen explained to her husband carefully: "Because some tour groups have very strict schedules. If you are delayed for too long when entering customs, there will be no need for travel buses, hotel services, entertainment items, etc.
The cost will increase. So they took some measures, such as telling passengers that customs is very strict, but if you put one dollar in your passport, they will let you through quickly.
Many passengers did this, and as expected they got fast passage. Over time, this became a habit. Not only did the person who gave it become a habit, but the person who accepted it also became a habit. If he didn't accept it, he would be unhappy. Our trip
The group has never had such a habit, everything is done according to the rules, so we have been embarrassed many times, and the trend has become more and more intense recently."
So that’s it!
Xiao Qi nodded, he had heard of this matter in his previous life.
Obviously we all traveled to Thailand together, and those Thai inspectors did not go to European and American tourists to ask for tips, but if you Chinese people don’t give them, they will be unhappy, and they will deliberately make things difficult and find excuses to make things difficult.
, don’t let you pass the level easily.
In this way, many people succumbed, thinking that since the money was not much anyway, giving it would save them a lot of trouble... So instead, it encouraged these people's unhealthy tendencies and brought more troubles to more people.
trouble.
"How are Luo Tangman going to solve it?" Xiao Qi asked.
"What else can we do? We can only wait and see how to communicate." Jia Yuwen sighed, "These people are like brown sugar. It's hard to take them off if they get stained."
"How to communicate?" Xiao Qi sneered, "When dealing with these people, you cannot be weak. Being weak will make them think you can be bullied! Tell Luo Tangman, just say it was me who said it, and let him be tougher! Tell me
If people from Thailand and Vietnam dare to embarrass our tourists again and ask for tips before letting them go, we will cancel all flights and tour plans to them!"
"So tough?" Jia Yuwen said in surprise.
Vietnam is just an emerging tourist destination, and there are not many flights. But Thailand is different. There are at least more than 2,000 flights to Thailand every year, with more than 3 million tourists, and its own tour groups also exceed 1 million. It can be said that
It is a pillar tourist destination of Qiwen Group. Once the Thailand travel plan is cancelled, it will be a huge blow to Qiwen Group.
"We can't deal with them without being tough." Xiao Qi said, "But don't worry, they can't withstand the pressure... How many tourists and how much income do you bring them a year? Will they be willing to give it up? There are only a few hundred personnel at the airport.
, and the money doesn’t go to the government, it all comes to them privately, which one do you think they will choose?”
"Yeah, that's right." Jia Yuwen lightly pressed her powder.
"Then Fairy Company will also communicate with the Civil Aviation Administration and Tourism Bureau to try to get everyone to put pressure together." Xiao Qi pinched her cheek, "Remember, we are doing business legitimately.
We must not let those crooked people destroy the reputation of the company we have worked so hard to build!"
"Um"
Jia Yuwen looked at her husband with bright eyes. What she loved most was Xiao Qi's domineering aura. If she hadn't been about to give birth to a baby now, she would have really wanted her husband to love her so well.
"Grandpa said that after I give birth to the baby here, I will go back to my hometown." After talking about business, Jia Yuwen leaned in Xiao Qi's arms and said softly: "Pinggu Mountain is beautifully repaired now! The road leads all the way to the town outside.
, their houses have also been renovated. Not only is the ecological breeding very prosperous, I heard that many backpackers have come to the mountains to stay for a few days, enjoying the quietness and freshness that are not found in the city!"
"Okay, I'll go together when I have time." Xiao Qi stroked his wife's hair and responded with a smile.
Money makes it easy to do things, and the province attaches great importance to Xiao Qi's donation, so within 8 months, the mountain road in Pinggu Mountain has been repaired, leading directly to Rongxin Town outside.
During this period, they have not stopped raising Xiangxi black pigs. Since Jia Yuwen provided everyone with interest-free loans, everyone has increased their enthusiasm for breeding. After June, the number is more than 5,000 per month.
The Xiangxi black pigs were slaughtered at a processing plant in Rongxin Town, cut into parts, vacuumed, and then transported to Chengdu by cold chain truck for the Fairy Canteen to make dishes.
I heard Jia Yuwen say last time that after the Chinese New Year, the number of Xiangxi black pigs in these dozen villages will increase, reaching tens of thousands a month, which will bring great harm to more than 10,000 people in the mountains.
Huge benefits, it is certain to become a well-off person!
