"Bo..."

The champagne plug was pushed open by a huge impact, and a bubble surged out.

Then there was a burst of enthusiastic applause and a group of rich people's ambitions.

Although it can be gentler to open champagne, for example, the technique of "the ladies' sigh" mentioned by a certain mother is indeed more stylish, but often when you open champagne, you care about the feeling of excitement that surges out.

It’s the same as eating hot pot, although there are double pots, only hot pots that are both numb and spicy can be considered real hot pot.

The person who opened the champagne was Yin Jun.

The location is in an office building in Central, with five floors above and below, all belonging to this newly established company, Dragon Airlines.

It’s not that Yin Jun is willing to show off, so he comes to open champagne and thinks he is the most powerful one in the company.

In fact, he doesn't like this big scene at all.

But the group of major shareholders of Dragon Airlines are all half-old men. It is really embarrassing for them to drive champagne.

Compared with everyone's previous designs, Dragon Airlines has changed a lot.

First of all, the investor and proportion are much different from the previous life.

Dragon Airlines, with a total registered capital of HK$5 billion, has a total of 9 shareholders.

Among them, the Ho Foundation, Cheung Kong Group, Hutchison Whampoa, Cao's Textiles, Hoh Hebei Group, New World Development and Kirin Group each invested 500 million Hong Kong dollars, accounting for 70% of the shares.

The remaining 15% is recruited to the Investors and the 15% is recruited to the Derun Group.

Local businessmen from the Xiangjiang group occupy 70% of the shares and domestic companies account for 30%. This proportion is somewhat unexpected, especially the Xiangjiang government.

They originally thought that with the personalities of Yin Jun and others, the mainland must have the majority.

Unexpectedly, according to internal news, Yin Jun was so tough, claiming that "airlines can only be controlled by the people of Xiangjiang", and the result was indeed the case. Xiangjiang Huazi Company controlled the shares with an overwhelming advantage.

This is also why the Xiangjiang government approved it so quickly.

Many people are a little confused about Yin Jun, thinking that this is not a fanatic who is close to the mainland? Why are they separated from the mainland now?

However, Yin Jun never talked about this. Mr. Huo and the King of Shipbuilding were naturally impossible to say it, and outsiders naturally had no way to know it.

Zhao.Shangke and Derun Group must be a little uncomfortable, but facing Yin Jun, especially Yin Jun, who is now the richest man in the world, they dare not complain for a word.

The top bosses have already told their person in charge that they must cooperate with Yin Jun with all their might so that he can devote himself to the mainland's recruitment, business, investment, and construction with greater enthusiasm, and no mistake can be made.

What else can they do if they say this?

I could only agree with the right amount after Xiangjiang made a share allocation request.

What's more, this is not without benefits.

The seven companies in Xiangjiang have not dispatched personnel to control Dragon Airlines.

On the contrary, none of them sent a single person, they were all airline staff hired and poached from outside.

Dragon Airlines adopts a responsible manager system. The vice chairman of Cathay Pacific, who poached, has received praise from many people in the industry. Basically, Cathay Pacific's expansion over the years has made him a contribution.

In order to poach him, Dragon Airlines gave him 3 million Hong Kong dollars in contract compensation alone.

The cost is certainly very high, but the effect of Tang Entai coming here is also immediate.

He first built the company's framework. In just three months, hundreds of employees and 14 units were completely built.

Tang Entai definitely couldn't use his strength when applying for a route, but he achieved great results in contacting major airports.

The destination airport of Dragon Airlines applied for, under the active contact and negotiation of Tang Entai, has agreed to allow Dragon Airlines flights to take off, land and dock at relatively preferential prices and conditions.

The title of the richest man in the world is still very useful.

We have been actively negotiating the opening and opening flight routes, and we have also achieved results one after another.

The Asian region is the best negotiated.

The six cities of Huajing, Shanghai, Tokyo, Seoul, Bangkok and Singapore have issued flight route permits in July.

The farthest of these four cities is Singapore, which takes about 7 hours to fly, and the rest are usually within a 5-hour flight range.

All four routes in Europe and the United States, London in the United Kingdom, Paris in France, New York and Los Angeles in the United States, and all flight route permits were completed in early September.

In other words, since the establishment of Dragon Airlines, you can do these 8 routes.

Although only a few words were introduced, 10 routes were successful. In fact, the wealthy people in Xiangjiang spent a lot of energy on this.

Especially the chartering king and Yin Jun, as two super rich people with the most contacts overseas, I don’t know how much relationship, how much effort and money they have spent to complete public relations.

But these are very valuable.

At least as soon as these 10 domestic and international routes were released, Xiangjiang basically connected with many important international cities, and the subsequent transfers were also convenient.

The value of Dragon Airlines is fully reflected, and there will be no dilemma like the previous life where there was only one route to Malaysia after opening for a few years.

With a population of more than 6 million in Xiangjiang alone, it is definitely impossible to support such 10 routes.

What everyone knows is that Dragon Airlines’ largest customer base comes from the mainland.

With the reform and opening up of the mainland, they have communicated more and more with the outside world, and more and more foreigners are going to the mainland.

As a window bridge between the mainland and the world, Xiangjiang will undoubtedly play a major role in the field of air passenger transport.

This is also an important traffic pulse that the mainland can control from afar.

The leaders of Zhuang Shang and Derun stated at the company's preparatory meeting that they should try to open an international flight route. There is no need to be afraid of the losses of this route, they will have a way to make up for it.

What the mainland is thinking is that the more flights there are to all parts of the world, the more foreign merchants will come to China to inspect and invest.

Even if one more is a huge progress, it will definitely not be interrupted, and even if you lose money, you must hold on.

As for losing money, they will not let the seven richest people in Xiangjiang suffer losses, so they have the previous statement.

This is why several shareholders agreed to Yin Jun’s efforts to explore 10 routes.

Four most important aspects of airlines.

Routes, airports, crews and aircraft.

The first three aspects are relatively easy to solve and are not much money.

But the last plane needs to be purchased with real money.

Nowadays, the world airlines basically only look at Boeing.

Although Airbus was established in 70 years, their aircraft manufacturing foundation is too weak and is not as good as the super giant Boeing.

Even after 40 years, although Airbus has developed well in scale, its annual losses of billions of euros still make the EU very troubled.

However, Boeing has always been firmly in its path to becoming a king, staying at the position of the world's largest aircraft manufacturing industry, and never intended to come down.

Boeing's most classic aircraft naturally belongs to the 747 series.

This series of aircraft, which has been delivered and used since 70, is still in production until 2020, which shows its stability and practicality.

Even the models behind it, such as the 757 and 767, were discontinued after more than 20 years, the 747 can last for so long, which has a great advantage.

But, the thing about planes does not mean that you can drive the plane to you tomorrow by holding money.

Usually, the manufacturing years of an aircraft are between 12 months and 30 months. The larger the aircraft, the longer it will take.

A large aircraft like the 747 has a short production cycle of two years.

But if Dragon Airlines is required to place an order now and then operate it in two years, it is just a joke.

So they bought second-hand planes.

Those wealthy airlines often change planes to maintain their strong image and flight capabilities.

For example, the United States, Northwest Airlines, Japan, ANA, KLM, etc. in this era.

The plane they replaced was placed in the warehouse and waited for smaller airlines to buy. Anyway, the condition was in good condition and was cheap and good, which was suitable for airlines that didn't have much budget.

Most of the 5 billion yuan of Dragon Airlines' capital is spent on the 10 aircraft purchased.

Tang Entai also knows very well about these aspects. In July and August, he flew around the world and purchased 6 747-100 aircraft and 4 747-200m aircraft in good condition for the company.

The average value of the 747-100 aircraft is around US$41 million. It has been in service for 8 years. The six aircraft have a passenger capacity of 366 people and a range of 9,800 kilometers. It is used to fly to six routes in Asia.

The purchase price of the 747-200m aircraft is US$62 million each, the service time is 6 years, the passenger capacity is 350 people, the range reaches 12,600 kilometers, and it can fly directly to four routes in Europe and the United States.

Don’t think that buying second-hand planes is too expensive. The original price of the two types of planes is originally very expensive.

The 747-100 is US$180 million, and the 200m is US$270 million each, which is not much cheaper than the price in 30 years.

This is also because of the lack of competitors. You have to buy it even when you see the high price, otherwise the airline will not be able to open it.

In mid-September, these planes arrived in Hong Kong one after another and were stored at Kai Tak Airport.
