The annual output of 3,000 units can basically meet the needs of domestic airlines. In other words, if Dongchen only produces the dc1-1 aircraft engine in the early stage, then all domestic 737 and 320 series aircraft
, can be completed within one year, which is of great significance to domestic airlines.
The biggest competition among airlines comes from domestic routes. First of all, there are too many options for travelers on domestic routes. Moreover, China's high-speed railways are becoming more and more developed. For short and medium-distance travel, high-speed railways are not only punctual and convenient, but also
In terms of price and time, it is much more convenient than flying. As a result, domestic airlines are extremely uncompetitive on most domestic short- and medium-range routes, and their profits are very low.
If short- and medium-haul aircraft can be replaced with dc1-1, then the profits of domestic airlines can be greatly improved. At that time, on the one hand, they can reduce prices and increase occupancy, on the other hand, they can ensure the unit transportation profit ratio
The popularity of civil aviation will increase significantly in the past, and the popularity of civil aviation will expand to a large area in a short period of time.
Since the government has issued an airworthiness certificate for dc1-1, the biggest question now is how Dongchen will allocate the orders at hand. The heads of airlines present have put forward their purchase intentions. The one with the largest purchase volume is China Southern Airlines, with total orders
The number has reached 730 units, which can fully replace their more than 300 Boeing 737s and Airbus A320s. China Eastern Airlines has ordered 700 units. They have 200 A320s and more than 100 Boeing 737s, covering all domestic markets.
routes, in addition to more than 200 units of Air China and more than 200 units of Hainan Airlines. Qilu Airlines, Sichuan Airlines and other small airlines also have the intention to order dozens or more of them.
The major airlines have different sizes and order quantities. Therefore, even if the production capacity is equally divided, it is very unfair to the large airlines. With the equal production capacity, the small airlines can complete all short and medium distances faster.
The replacement of aircraft has improved overall profitability. However, large airlines frequently fly hundreds of aircraft, and the replacement cycle is too long. The results are also very slow.
People from the Civil Aviation Administration of China have negotiated many times and it is difficult to find a solution that satisfies everyone. Small airlines hope to evenly distribute production capacity according to the number of companies ordering, while large airlines hope to carry out production according to the number of orders ordered by different airlines.
The distribution of the average rate, for example, ensures that each airline can get 9% of its respective orders in the first month. In this way, everyone can complete engine replacement within one year.
Regarding this proposal, small airlines were immediately anxious, especially the person in charge of Xiangpeng Airlines in Yunnan Province, who blushed and shouted: "It is difficult for us as a small company to survive. There are few planes, few routes, and the flight takeoff and landing times are also very long."
Being placed in an embarrassing marginal time period, survival is already difficult. If we follow this ratio, we have a total of eighteen aircraft, and we can only get less than three engines per month, and it takes two months to complete the replacement of three aircraft.
, this kind of speed, it is too unfair for us to compare with the big airlines!"
"Yes!" The person in charge of Tianjin Airlines also said with great agreement: "China Southern Airlines is one of the best in Asia. There is no need to compete with small companies like us at this time! You should take a longer-term view.
, your international routes have developed so much, it would be great to work more on short- and medium-range international routes!”
The person in charge of China Southern Airlines said: "We have so many aircraft, and the replacement requires a lot of capital investment. Almost all the previous engines have to be replaced. Not only is the cost high, but the waste of resources is also very serious. Even the spare parts are not universal. Do you think
If the plate is big, you must eat more? No matter how big the plate is, there is only a small amount of food in it, which is not much more than that of your small company. In the end, the effort of washing the dishes is much more than what you use! The dishwashing liquid and water are also more than yours.
It consumes a lot! Such a big plate takes up more space than your small plates!"
The words of the person in charge of China Southern Airlines made everyone dumbfounded. All airlines, big and small, can’t wait to complete the replacement as soon as possible. However, tens of thousands of engines cannot be manufactured at once. After all, the replacement of the whole line is a very long time.
process.
The entire conference room was noisy, and everyone was expressing their opinions for a while, and the debate started endlessly.
The intermediate organizer of the Civil Aviation Administration of China looked embarrassed. Whoever gets the Dongchen engine first will mean that whoever gets the Dongchen engine has achieved a huge cost advantage in civil aviation transportation. This is not because one party has improved while the other party has stagnated, but once
If one party improves, the other party will inevitably decline.
Zhang Wenhao listened to everyone's argument and his head was pounding. He thought for a moment and tapped the table with his fingers. After everyone calmed down, Zhang Wenhao asked: "What are your most stressful routes now?"
The person in charge of the airlines looked at me and I looked at you. Finally, the person in charge of China Eastern Airlines said: "I think the routes that are under the greatest pressure at present are those opened by high-speed rail. Among them, the pressure from Yanjing to China Shipping should be the greatest.
of."
Other airlines have also stated that Yanjing to China Overseas is the most popular route in the country, with the largest passenger flow, the most flights, the most competition, and the greatest pressure, because after the opening of the high-speed rail from Yanjing to China Overseas, the two cities will
The distance from the center to the city center only takes five hours to cover, and the price of a second-class seat is only more than 500 yuan, while the price of economy class during prime time is basically the same price.
, however, this is the seat price, not the final price. The final consumer will have to bear an additional 180 yuan in fuel tax and airport construction tax.
The biggest problem in terms of convenience in the aviation field is that most airports are relatively remote, with long waiting times and low punctuality. Take Yanjing as an example, it takes thirty minutes to get from the city to the airport by taking the airport line, and
You need to pay an additional transportation fee of nearly 30 yuan. The airport bus takes an average of more than an hour.
The high-speed railway stations in these two cities are all located in urban areas. They are convenient to take, the procedures are simple, and the punctuality rate is basically accurate to the minute. Therefore, civil aviation faces the greatest pressure on this line.
Others have no objection to this. Yanjing to Zhonghai is indeed a big problem. It seems to be a difficult problem to overcome. It is said that the speed of the high-speed railway will soon be increased to the design speed of 350 kilometers per hour. At that time, the whole journey time
It will be reduced to about four hours. By that time, civil aviation will be even more painful on this route.
Zhang Wenhao saw that no one had any dispute about the fact that the route from Yanjing to Shanghai was the most stressful, so he said: "Then, let's start with this route first. Based on the number of flights you have on this route, we will
As a unit, all airlines replace aircraft at an even rate. Dongchen’s productivity can ensure that four aircraft are replaced every day. All airlines are sorted according to the order of the first letter in the alphabet, and each airline replaces one aircraft at a time.
, cycle replacement, first allow each of your airlines to reduce a certain amount of pressure on this route, until all aircraft on this route have been replaced, then we will start the replacement on the second route."
Zhang Wenhao's method made everyone's eyes light up. If this is the case, it would be much more fair for all airlines, because they are allocated resources on each route based on their different scales and strengths.
It's different, but this allows them to concentrate on solving the pressure problem on one route first.
This rule was happily accepted by everyone, and Zhang Wenhao said: "Since everyone has no objections, we will start signing the order contract now. After the contract is signed, starting from this week, Dongchen will start to arrange for everyone to arrive in Yanjing
In the aircraft modification work on China Shipping Lines, during the DC1-1 testing stage, Dongchen Aviation has not stopped manufacturing DC1-1. We have now about 80 engines that have successfully rolled off the production line, and are now in the ground test stage, which lasts three days.
After that, we will rent a maintenance hangar at China Shipping Hongqiao Airport and complete the engine replacement for you in Hongqiao."
Later, the person in charge of China Southern Airlines said: "I think that in addition to the route from Yanjing to China Shipping, the route from Yanjing to Yangcheng is also facing great pressure. The high-speed rail from Yanjing to Yangcheng has a high occupancy rate, and the routes along the route have received
The impact is also very large, so after the refitting is completed on the route from Yanjing to China Shipping, the next step should be from Yanjing to Yangcheng."
The person in charge of China Eastern Airlines also nodded and said: "Now, the routes with the least pressure are the major travel hotlines and routes to cities in the southwest and northwest. On these routes, the competitiveness of airlines is still very strong. We don't need to worry about it for the time being.
The most important thing is to gradually replace the routes between big cities on the third tier. In that case, we will be competitive enough to compete with them for customers when facing various high-speed rail lines."
"What about overseas routes?" the person in charge of Air China said: "Don't ignore the importance of overseas routes, especially the routes between Asian countries. Japan, South Korea, and Thailand are the business and tourist routes with the largest passenger flow.
Foreign airlines have also been fiercely competing with us for passenger sources. If we can replace the aircraft on these routes, our external competitiveness will be greatly improved."
The person in charge of Lucky Air said angrily: "Can we talk about these things later? We don't have an international route so far. If you want to refit the aircraft on international routes, why do you have to wait until small businesses like us have completed the refit?
Bar?"
Zhang Wenhao smiled slightly, stood up, and said: "The first phase is for the route from Yanjing to China Shipping. Let's not talk about other things for the time being. When the refitting of this route is nearing completion, we can meet and discuss it again. Today
Let’s go here first. After everyone goes back, arrange the order of the aircraft to be replaced as soon as possible. See you in Hongqiao in three days.”
Dongchen Aviation currently has a production capacity of three units per day. During these days of test flights, it has accumulated more than 80 engines, which is enough to replace three aircraft for each of these airlines. COMAC is located in China Shipping, and major
Most airlines flying from Yanjing to China Shipping take off and land at China Shipping Hongqiao Airport, so it is most convenient to replace engines for these airlines in Hongqiao.
Just after the meeting in the domestic civil aviation industry, Dongchen announced to the world that dc1-1 will start to be supplied to airlines in mainland China from now on, and will start to replace the aircraft of domestic airlines in the shortest possible time. General
After Pratt & Whitney and Rolls-Royce learned that Dongchen had entered the market so quickly, they both issued warnings to major domestic airlines, claiming that if the company replaces the engine without authorization, all consequences will be borne by the airlines themselves.
Bear the responsibility, and. In order to reduce the losses caused by the current sharp drop in stock prices and orders, the three companies have jointly made unilateral measures similar to punishment to customers around the world, that is, all engine maintenance and
The cost of spare parts has increased by 50%.
This move was protested by all airlines around the world, and these three companies have long understood that with Dongchen's current strong manufacturing strength, their fall is only a matter of time. And Dongchen Automobile has already presented them with
There are enough cases that Dongchen Automobile has squeezed out almost all large companies in the world, turning these companies into Dongchen's OEM factories. In the field of aerospace engines, Dongchen has stronger competitiveness than automobiles, because aviation
The users of the engine are the global airlines, not individuals. Individuals may have brand tendencies, but it is absolutely impossible for an airline company, which is all about profit as its core, to care about old friendships and nationality distinctions.
Although all airlines in the world are opposing the malicious price increases of the three giants, Dongchen's inability to cover the world in a short period of time is an irreversible situation. The three giants also know very well that sooner or later all their users will switch sides to Dongchen.
However, until they defect, all airlines will continue to rely on them.
Although on the one hand they maliciously raised prices, on the other hand, the three giants also significantly reduced the prices of their own engines. Now Boeing and Airbus have given up using the engines of the three giants for their current and pending orders. However, Dongchen's
The coverage capacity will take at least several years to complete. In these years, if airlines have rigid demand, they will inevitably have new aircraft put into operation. Their price reduction of new engines is to attract users to temporarily give up waiting for Dongchen, and
Choose an engine from the Big Three to meet your immediate needs.
Zhang Wenhao is not worried about this. Aviation engines are different from cars. Car users may not blindly make repeated investments. However, airlines have made their calculations very easy. Even if they choose engines from the three giants to meet their immediate needs, once they have
Once Dongchen engines are supplied, they will inevitably replace all the engines of the three giants as quickly as possible. Only in this way can costs be reduced to the greatest extent.
In addition to being angry about the Big Three's malicious increase in maintenance and spare parts costs, overseas airlines are also worried about Chinese airlines. Currently, Dongchen dc1-1 is not enough to carry out long-distance international routes. However, once Dongchen
If Chen develops a high-thrust engine, then the first one to get the replacement will definitely be Chinese Airlines. At that time, Chinese Airlines will use lower-cost aircraft to compete with them for the international route market, and they are even more worried.
, if Dongchen starts to export aviation engines around the world, then every airline that gets Dongchen engines first will set off an unfair competition in its own country.
In order to improve productivity as much as possible in a short period of time, Dongchen invested one billion US dollars in the construction of Dongchen Aviation's new production line. Dongchen had endless cash, and most of it was foreign exchange, which made Dongchen also become
If the company with the most powerful purchasing power in the world decides to build a production line, Dongchen Automobile can easily achieve worldwide procurement and assembly due to its close relationship with countries around the world.
It is precisely because of Dongchen's strong financial support and Dongchen Aviation's strong technological support that civil aviation systems all over the world have fixed their eyes on Dongchen, looking forward to Dongchen's next move and the next one that will make the whole world proud.
Shocking product.
At the same time, more than a month has passed since Dongchen dc1-1 came off the assembly line. The first engine is still in the continuous testing stage on the ground. With the support of powerful technology, materials and manufacturing processes, 23 engines are produced every day.
It has been running continuously for more than 30 days, and it is still running well without the slightest failure.
The strong manufacturing capabilities have made the world pay more and more attention to the performance of Dongchen dc1-1. Dongchen intends to prove dc1-1's orderly working ability, mechanical reliability, and its overhaul time limit.
The world's three major engine manufacturers have adopted a detailed division method to further cater to market segmentation needs in positioning civil aviation engines. The thrust division is even accurate to the unit of 100 kilograms. In fact, in general, the classification
There are only three levels, which are equipped with small and medium-sized trunk airliners, medium-sized and medium-large airliners. For small and medium-sized trunk airliners, there are as many as a dozen engine models around the world. However, in the face of the super cost-effectiveness of Dongchen dc1-1, these dozen
All the engines developed for small and medium-sized mainline passenger aircraft and transport aircraft have been eclipsed. Even some narrow-body small mainline passenger aircraft will have a certain amount of thrust waste after being equipped with DC1-1. However, due to precise fuel consumption control, the engine design has more thrust.
The outgoing part will not increase the additional cost of use.
This is why Boeing's extremely favorable evaluation is that dc1-1 will become the perfect power system for all small and medium-sized mainline passenger aircraft and cargo aircraft. Dongchen does not need to make any detailed segmentation of the market at this level. Just one dc1-1 is completely sufficient.
Already.
From this point of view, if Dongchen develops a higher-thrust version to cover the 20-ton high-thrust engines of Boeing's medium-sized passenger aircraft 767 and 777 and Airbus's A330 and 340, then, with Dongchen's strength, it will also only need one
Products can achieve full coverage in this field. In fact, Dongchen only needs to develop two engines, which are enough to cover the vast majority of aircraft models in the entire civil aviation field. As for super large passenger aircraft such as the A380, the output is too small.
The proportion of the total number of civil aviation passenger aircraft is also very small. It is not necessary to develop a large thrust engine with a thrust of more than 30 tons for it. Welcome to your support, which is my biggest motivation.m
