Xiao Jinlang and Zhou Qingfeng have been working under him for more than half a year, but he is still stunned by the CEO's wild and unconstrained ideas from time to time. Others are bragging when they look at the whole world, but this one is different. He can really do it.
After the report, the affairs of international students were quite complicated, so Xiao Jinlang had to go and get busy.
Zhou Qingfeng was also busy. After a month and a half, Director Ma Qianshan showed up again.
This man, who had been running around a lot recently, finally returned to the Moscow branch. When he found Zhou Qingfeng, he closed the door of his office and took out some photocopies of documents in a serious manner. He said, "Mr. Zhou, what you want can be done."
Already."
‘Holy Light Airlines’ was established.
This is a private enterprise, absolutely private, and has nothing to do with the government. At most, it hired a group of retired military pilots and ground staff from United Airlines, and incidentally transferred a group of key personnel from the army to work.
As for the aircraft, we directly use the Tu-154 and Il-76 that we bought before. One set of personnel and two sets of teams, which will not affect the flight business at all.
In addition, in order to reflect the private nature of 'Holy Light Airlines', this airline also offered employees several times higher wages. The big-haired pilots and ground staff who flew over to hand over simply stayed behind and went directly to 'Holy Light Airlines' to find people.
a job.
As a large international company, its personnel must naturally reflect internationalization.
Anyway, it is quite normal to buy a passenger plane and give it as a pilot. By the way, those flight attendants are even more gifts. After all, the country is in chaos now, there are fewer flights, and flight attendants are under employment pressure.
No matter which country they come from, pilots are all high-quality talents, and the training cost is equivalent to their weight in gold. Twenty or thirty years later, domestic airlines have developed greatly and their own pilots are not enough, so they went to poach Korean passenger airliner pilots.
Pilots who can fly international routes are even more valuable, and it is extremely difficult to train them.
For "Holy Light Airlines", poaching people everywhere is an inevitable choice. Otherwise, who will fly the next plane? Especially if you are familiar with the DaMao route, wouldn't it be better to pilot DaMao?
So it is normal for these stupid pilots to run back to Ermao's house one day to fly the Il-76. After all, most of them are from the military, and the international community cannot have too many doubts.
Pilots are also cheap at Maozi. One thousand five hundred US dollars is already a professor-level monthly salary, and a ground handler's monthly salary is five hundred US dollars. Although this salary is nothing internationally, it is already a sky-high price for Maozi and domestically.
So it would be better to recruit more people. Anyway, Holy Light Airlines is afraid that there will be more planes than pilots next, so they have to be prepared.
By the way, the domestic pilots and ground staff of "Holy Light Air" are also paid according to this salary, and they cannot let themselves feel disheartened - otherwise they will mess up the plane and cause even greater losses.
For key positions, money must be in place.
The relevant lessons are painful.
Zhou Qingfeng also approved RMB 500 million for the expansion of Tianyang Airport. He wants to upgrade this dilapidated airport, which has only one runway and can only take off and land small passenger planes, into a regional aviation hub.
Incidentally, it holds 70% of the equity of Tianyang Airport.
At this moment, we can see the plight of Tianyang, a small place. The infrastructure is really poor. It is located inland, with inconvenient transportation and a backward economy. The population is quite large, but it is extremely poor.
When the advisory group was planning for 'Holy Light', they repeatedly advised Zhou Qingfeng to develop elsewhere. Big cities have better supporting conditions and have broader platforms and prospects.
Tianyang, not to mention anything else, even lags behind in water supply and power supply, and cannot support the development of large-scale industry.
But no matter how others tried to persuade him, Zhou Qingfeng would never leave Tianyang. This small city was by no means bad, but a little bit of it would be better for him - this was his territory.
If you go elsewhere, local forces are so intertwined that you have to clean it up so many times and send so many people to the west before you can do it. Tianyang is just a blank piece of paper, and others who want to cause trouble have to weigh their own abilities.
As for infrastructure, we can only spend money on it.
If 'Holy Light' wants to operate an airline, it needs its own main operating airport. If it wants to operate a passenger aircraft overhaul line, it needs a series of supporting facilities and enterprises.
Regarding supporting facilities, Director Ma had a detailed discussion with Zhou Qingfeng, "The domestic manufacturing industry is backward, and it would take a lot of money and a long time to immediately change to the European and American system."
This is absolutely true. In practice, it took China 20 to 30 years to build a full industrial chain system, and it is the only country that has all industrial categories in the United Nations Industrial Classification.
Note that it is the only one.
There is no entire industry chain for hawk sauce.
But this process is really difficult and they are all forced.
Just like a southerner who is used to eating rice, if he goes to the north to eat steamed buns and noodles, he will definitely not be used to it. Establishing and transforming the industrial system is not only a matter of getting used to it, but also requires time, money and talents.
The country originally had the opportunity to purchase Leopard II tanks and Mirage fighter jets, but in the end it purchased Soviet-style equipment because the domestic industrial system was originally built with Soviet aid.
If you are too ambitious, you will end up like your third brother, who spent decades building an 'Arjun' tank and used the best sub-system equipment in the world. As a result, the industrial system did not support it and he built a jumping truck.
Therefore, it is feasible to build a large aircraft manufacturing plant, and the existing domestic aircraft research and production system can be used. But Director Ma also advised Zhou Qingfeng...
"After all, your manufacturing plant is also a heavy industry. Can you not place it in Tianyang? There are no supporting companies in that place, and even the power supply is not enough. If you place it in Nanchang, it will be better than Tianyang."
As soon as the map is opened, Tianyang's nature as a fourth- and fifth-tier town is exposed. As a hilly area in the south, the urban area is too small.
Director Ma wanted Zhou Qingfeng to move this large factory with at least tens of billions of investment to other big cities. But the latter was unmoved at all, pointing to the map and saying:
"The urban area of Tianyang is small, but the Tianyang area is big enough. There are more than a dozen surrounding counties, so why can't we put a manufacturing plant in that place? I think Andong County is good, it's a big enough place."
Director Ma almost got angry at Zhou Qingfeng. Tianyang City is very poor, and Andong County is even more poor. At least there are some industrial supporting facilities in the city, while Andong County is a purely agricultural county with nothing.
.
"Mr. Zhou, if this manufacturing plant is built in the Imperial Capital, the initial investment will be at most one billion. But if it is really built in Andong County, the initial investment will not be less than five billion."
At the end of the story, Director Ma already had some loyalty disputes. Like many people, he didn't understand why Zhou Qingfeng wanted to fight against Tianyang?
"Because Tianyang is a city. It will be easy to get a 404 if you go up." This is something that cannot be said publicly, but Zhou Qingfeng has always been very enthusiastic about investing.
The advisory group has made an industrial plan for 'Holy Light' based on the conditions of the Tianyang area. This plan has detailed steps from transportation to electricity to personnel training.
But no one takes this plan seriously, because it includes too much infrastructure construction. The cost required is not just a few cents, but starting from several billion, and hundreds of billions are enough.
The return on investment is low and the payback period is long. People who are not stupid will not do it. With the current super profitability of ‘Holy Light’, which is as strong as a cash cow, there is no way to come up with billions of start-up capital.
but......
Who said I can't afford billions of soft girl coins? The money I earn is meant to be spent, otherwise it will depreciate. I have to spend billions!
Zhou Qingfeng threw Director Ma's advice away. He called Oriole in Tianyang from Moscow and said: "You are familiar with the bank. Help me ask about a loan. For large loans, the interest will be lower."
, it will take a little longer.”
‘Shengguang’ has mastered a large number of high-quality assets. Even the bankrupt state-owned enterprises that are like a burden will become like hot cakes if they are split up in the hands of Zhou Qingfeng.
However, such a large enterprise never borrows money and relies entirely on its own funds for development. Tianyang's banking system is worried to death, and it is ridiculed by its peers as "guarding the golden mountain without food."
When Huangli heard Zhou Qingfeng asked for a loan, she thought, "This is the behavior of a normal company." She came from the credit department of a bank and asked with a smile on the phone: "Mr. Zhou, how much do you want to borrow?"
Zhou Qingfeng was silent for a while, then spit out a number, "Let's borrow a little less first, and get 10 billion soft girl coins."
