The Vietnamese government seems to have realized that the Soviet Union has sunk. At this time, it can only make some changes to maintain internal stability. Therefore, Vietnam's internal foreign investment bill was promulgated quite quickly. Within a few days after Li Guangyu returned to Xiangjiang, Vietnam's
Bian will officially announce the investment law that will be officially implemented on May 1st.
In addition, the Vietnamese Ministry of Commerce has sent invitation letters to senior executives of many well-known Asian companies, inviting these companies to visit Vietnam.
Vietnam is also very sincere this time. They are also very good at copying the work. They directly took out Haiphong City, the largest port city in the north, to establish a special economic zone. In many aspects, they copied the plan of Pengcheng.
In order to strengthen communication with the outside world and focus on strengthening the opening-up of Haiphong City to the outside world, the Civil Aviation Administration of Vietnam has deployed five domestic aircraft to station at the International Cat Bi Airport in Haiphong City to open Haiphong City to Xiangjiang, Singapore, Taoyuan, and Tokyo.
, five routes to Seoul.
You must know that during this period, Vietnam only had about 30 aircraft under 10 years old. It was not easy to transfer five aircraft at one time.
In addition, senior officials from the Ministry of Transport of Vietnam and Haiphong City Government have also communicated with many major airlines around the world, hoping that major airlines can open flights from more cities to Cat Bi Airport, and Haiphong City will try its best to assist.
Xiangjiang Airlines, a subsidiary of the Lee Group, is naturally one of the key communication targets in Vietnam. You must know that Xiangjiang Airlines has 8 airports. Except for Oriental Port in Western Australia, the other seven are either global aviation hubs or regional aviation hubs.
, the opening of some routes by Xiangjiang Airlines will help strengthen the establishment of air corridors between Haiphong City and the outside world.
After Wang Junchang came to report, Li Guangyu said to him: "Currently, the passenger flow in Haiphong City is not large, and Vietnam itself has opened flights to several major cities. We have temporarily opened three routes: Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok, and London.
There are three flights a week in Kuala Lumpur and Bangkok, and regular flights a week in London. They will be adjusted later based on passenger flow."
At present, Haiphong City has just designated a special economic zone and its development has not yet taken off. Opening too many at this time will only lead to losses.
Even if Haiphong City develops rapidly, it will take three to five years for the passenger flow to increase. Now, those who want to go to Haiphong can go to Xiangjiang and then transfer there, or go directly to Hanoi. Cat Bi Airport currently has good passenger flow and supporting facilities.
It needs to be improved.
Wang Junchang immediately responded to Li Guangyu's instructions, and then mentioned the issue of Kowloon Airlines to Li Guangyu. This was the main reason why he came to see Li Guangyu. There was no need for him to fly from Hong Kong Airlines to a Haiphong City route.
The building came to ask Li Guangyu for instructions alone.
After a period of planning, three of the five Airbus A320s purchased by Kowloon Airlines have returned. The routes they opened are Xiangjiang to Kaohsiung, Xiangjiang to Tokyo, and Xiangjiang to Seoul. These are currently Xiangjiang’s golden routes with huge passenger flow.
Very profitable.
These routes are now operated by Xiangjiang Airlines, China Airlines, All Nippon Airways, and Korean Air, mainly Xiangjiang Airlines. 80% of the flights on these three routes are now operated by Xiangjiang Airlines.
It is estimated that the other party will open routes to Taipei and Singapore in the future. After all, these two routes are also quite popular. Kowloon Airlines' entry is obviously to compete with Xiangjiang Airlines.
Li Guangyu had already expected this. Kowloon Airlines has the support of Virgin Atlantic, and now Patten is taking special care of his pro-his side. It is relatively easy for Kowloon Airlines to get routes. Li Guangyu and the others want to attack Kowloon Airlines.
, it can only come from the price and service.
Li Guangyu said: "Based on the flight schedule of Kowloon Airlines, we will provide targeted discounts for the flights before and after.
At the same time, contact the Kowloon Bus Company. Our airline and Cathay Pacific Airways will launch a free pick-up and drop-off service in Hong Kong.
Mainly in the bus hub centers in Central, Tseung Kwan O, Tin Shui Wai, Fen Shui, Hung Hom, Mong Kok, Tuen Mun, Sham Shui Po and other places, tour groups can be picked up directly from the hotel for free.
Remember, only if we fly with Hong Kong Airlines and Cathay Pacific, we have pick-up and drop-off services.”
Li Guangyu believes that after he implements this plan, more people will give priority to Xiangjiang Airlines and Cathay Pacific when traveling. Major tour groups will definitely choose them first, after all, it can save them a lot of money.
As for Xiangjiang Airport, sorry, there is no such service here. Firstly, the passenger flow at Xiangjiang Airport is quite high. There is only one Xiangjiang Airport and no one in Xiangjiang can compete with it. Secondly, the Xiangjiang Public Transport Group and the taxi industry are now divided into two worlds.
.
One is Kowloon Bus Company, which includes Kowloon Bus Company and Kowloon Taxi Company.
The other one is Newport Bus Company, which also owns New World First Bus and Newport Taxi Company.
This is not the point. The most important thing is that the Kowloon Bus Company is owned by the Lee Group and the Newport Bus Company is owned by the Hong Kong Bank Group.
As for other small companies, they have long been squeezed out by the two major companies. Currently, this is the only bus company and taxi company in Hong Kong.
So Xiangjiang Airport will not provide such a service. As for Xiangjiang Airlines to do this, it has nothing to do with them. Other airlines can also do this if they have the ability.
Of course, Wang Junchang is aware of the benefits of this implementation to Xiangjiang Airlines and Cathay Pacific. In addition, his company has discounts on Kowloon Air's flight time and later flights on the same route. He wants to see how Kowloon Air can compete with him.
He smiled and said: "Li Sheng, after I go back, I will contact the leaders of Cathay Pacific and Kowloon Bus Company to try to officially launch this service on May 1st. I believe the citizens of Xiangjiang will be very happy about this.
We will also support Xiangjiang Airlines and Cathay Pacific Airlines even more."
Li Guangyu warned: "We must also keep up with the publicity. We must make all citizens in Xiangjiang aware of our service. Let Jiayi TV cooperate with you. Our flights must also distribute leaflets to customers to let them know more about our service.
services so that the effectiveness of our plans can be maximized.”
Later, Li Guangyu also discussed with Wang Junchang the matter of inland routes. With so many years of reform and opening up, some families in the mainland have begun to become richer, and more and more people have traveled abroad. In addition, Hong Kong and overseas Chinese have returned to the mainland and Vietnam.
More and more people are coming, and now the passenger traffic on many routes has increased.
This time Wang Junchang hopes to increase the number of direct flights to Shanghai and Ludao. In the past ten years, Xiangjiang Airlines has maintained one flight per day to these two cities, but now it seems that one flight per day is not enough.
The market needs it.
Li Guangyu said: "These two routes will be changed to two flights a day and will be operated by Airbus A320 series with 180 seats. When the passenger volume increases in the future, we will consider switching to A330-300 or even A340-300."
Li Guangyu did not do anything blindly. In the past, the planes flying in these two cities were A330-200 series with 253 seats. Now that the passenger flow has increased, Li Guangyu directly flew two A320 series with 180 seats. In this way, there are 360 seats per day. Compared with
There were one hundred more before, which was enough to meet the passenger flow demand.
As passenger flow increases in the future, Li Guangyu can definitely increase the number of aircraft or change aircraft types to meet development needs.
As for the Beijing route, Li Guangyu has not added one flight per day for the time being, because Mainland China Air China has increased flights from Beijing to Xiangjiang, and it is not enough for him to increase passenger traffic.
