Li Dong originally thought that there should be nothing wrong today.
Except for having to go to the birthday party in the evening, all other time is free.
But the car on the road, Li Dong received a call from Bai Su, and LAN Xingguo came back.
Soon after Bai Su's phone call came, LAN Xingguo himself also called.
This time, he went abroad for a long time. He went to Europe and the United States once again, just to purchase airplanes for the airlines to be established.
In 2008 financial crisis, the freight market has been subject to certain fluctuations, and some airlines in various countries are not operating well, which has been greatly affected.
Second hand aircraft sales business, has also become the emergency policy of major airlines.
LAN Xingguo went abroad to purchase second-hand aircraft.
The purchase of two mobile phones is almost the norm in the industry.
One is cheap. The other is that the cargo plane does not require high details. It is different from the passenger plane. It is too old and easy for passengers to resist.
In general, the aircraft life is relatively high.
Internationally, Boeing's passenger and cargo aircraft have even been in service for more than 30 years. So far, some companies are using these old aircraft.
Therefore, Li Dong did not contradict the purchase of the second mobile phone.
Cheap, usable, safe, that's enough.
It's not a beauty contest. In order to be beautiful, we have to deal with the appearance again. It's no different from the new one. It's hard to see how many people can go inside the plane.
And now, in the domestic express industry, there is no express company that has its own aircraft, except that the post has purchased about 20 Boeing 737 series freighters for EMS.
Shunfeng, as the first private airline in China, has just been established. Now it is still empty and has almost nothing.
Although there are many planes under it, they are actually the cargo planes of Yangtze River Express and East China Sea airlines, which are really downwind, and none of them.
Second hand aircraft is not worth any more, it is also a big guy flying in the sky, even if the second-hand aircraft is not cheap.
At present, Shunfeng has not been able to purchase alone.
Far away now to purchase their own aircraft, once the transaction is concluded, the plane will go to the sky, that is the real sense, the first private express airline in China will take off.
As for whether to buy or rent, in fact, we have discussed it for many times.
Finally, after careful calculation, they all felt that renting was not very cost-effective.
At present, the domestic air cargo market is monopolistic, and the rent is very high.
It's not cheap to rent a few airlines' planes along the wind. The annual rent is almost one sixth of the purchase price of a second-hand cargo plane.
In other words, if you rent it for more than six years, you can almost buy a two cell phone.
And the general second-hand cargo plane, at least 15 to 20 years of service, such a calculation, if conditions permit, it is more cost-effective to purchase.
……
Far away building.
As soon as Li Dong arrived, people in the conference room immediately got up to greet him.
There are not many people. Wang Yue, vice president in charge of logistics group, LAN Xingguo, President of airlines, is bound to be there. In addition, there are some middle and low-level executives and experts.
Besides them, Qin Hai, who has not been seen for many days, is also here.
In the past year, there have been a lot of distant logistics businesses and heavy tasks. Qinhai has been running around the country for at least half a year, but Jiangbei has come back less.
Seeing Qin Hai, Li Dong's face does not change, but his eyes subconsciously avoid each other.
Qin Hai didn't say anything, let alone look at Li Dong. When Li Dong asked people to sit down, Qin Hai sat down with his head down, hardly looking at Li Dong from the beginning to the end.
Li Dong sighed in his heart. On this occasion, he knew that there was nothing to say.
As soon as he sat down, Li Dong looked at LAN Xingguo and said with a smile, "brother LAN, I'm tired."
LAN Xingguo had a little wind and frost on his face, but his spirit was excited: "it's a little tired, but it's worth it.
In recent years, I have hardly been out of Sichuan and Sichuan. I have been sitting in the office all day. I feel that I am really old and should retire.
Since I came to the distant place, I have been rejuvenated by the second spring, and I have lived a full life, as if I had been back 20 years ago. "
Li Dong said with a smile: "the second spring is enough for career rejuvenation. Don't be radiant for others. If your sister-in-law knows about it, you can't ask me for trouble."
All of them burst into laughter. LAN Xingguo quickly waved his hand and said, "I'm 60 people now. Don't make a joke with me. I have no face to see people when it comes out."
Li Dong laughed and exchanged greetings.
After the exchange of greetings, Li Dong returned to the main topic and said, "Mr. LAN, let's talk about the situation briefly.
We have to speed up the process of buying our own plane. I'm still waiting for our plane to soar in the sky.
Now we don't have enough planes to rent for logistics.At present, because we can keep up with the land transportation, there is not much trouble.
However, with the further expansion and prosperity of the e-commerce industry, our online and offline systems further expand and cover, and speed has become the lifeblood and core competitiveness of logistics.
So we have to be faster, faster, to meet our needs. "
LAN Xingguo nodded his head and said, "I know all these. So this time, we have been to 8 countries, more than 20 aviation enterprises, and even visited several aircraft manufacturing enterprises.
When I was in Sichuan last time, didn't I tell you that I liked two series?
One is the Boeing 747-400f and the other is the Boeing 757-200.
The front one is full freight, and the latter is passenger to cargo. At that time, I was preparing to purchase in Sichuan Airlines.
Both of them have the advantages of strong endurance, ocean shipping and global freight transportation.
But that was the original Sichuan Airlines, Sichuan Airlines has international freight demand.
At present, there is no such demand in the distance, so I discussed with several of Mr. Qin that it is not suitable to purchase these two models at present.
Instead, the Boeing 767-300f freighter is more suitable for us.
This is a model that Boeing only launched in 1995. First of all, the aircraft is not very old. Even if it is the first batch put into operation, it has only been 13 years.
At that time, there was not much production. Most of them were put into operation and made their first flight in about 00 years. At present, almost all the second mobile phones on the market have lasted less than 10 years.
If we purchase it, it will be easy to maintain it properly and use it for 20 years.
On the other hand, the 767-300f is a dedicated cargo plane, which can be put into use at the fastest speed without modification.
The standard range is 6000 km, and the endurance capacity is not too strong, but not weak. It is more than enough in China.
This kind of aircraft with shorter voyage is more suitable for express delivery industry.
Ups and FedEx, the two largest express companies in the United States, have purchased a large number of 767 series aircraft.
This time, I went to the two families for an inspection. They didn't refuse to accept us.
Through our investigation, we know that 767 series has many advantages in short and medium distance flight, and it is also very suitable for express delivery industry.
Especially the 300F type, the load capacity is not low, full load of 50 tons.
All year round, an aircraft, in accordance with normal operation, does not overload, pilots get enough rest time, full load limit close to 10000 tons!
If we purchase 20 767-300f models this time, the annual shipping capacity should reach 200000-250000 tons.
This is our own business. Some of the belly compartments we rent can also reach about 50000 tons per year.
The annual maximum shipping volume of 300000 tons is enough to meet our current development.
According to our survey, the air express transportation volume of Shunfeng in 2008 was about 150000 tons, while the far-off one was less than 100000 tons.
The theoretical 300000 tons may be less than that, and there must be 250000 tons. According to our current development, it is absolutely satisfied. "
In Sichuan and Sichuan, Li Dong proposed the annual air transport capacity of 200000 tons.
LAN Xingguo is obviously in accordance with this scale, even if the distance in the air transport, only 100000 tons less than.
The reason why Shunfeng has so many is that it is their national type pick-up. Moreover, in the express delivery industry, Shunfeng is indeed larger than that in the distance.
After listening to LAN Xingguo's introduction, Li Dong looked at other people. Obviously, all of them knew about it and nodded slightly, which could be regarded as acquiescence to LAN Xingguo's statement.
In fact, Li Dong is at a loss about these models.
But it's OK. He just cares whether he can meet the requirements or not. He only cares about the results and the process. These things are handed over to professionals.
Since LAN Xingguo and Qin Hai, including experts, feel that this model can meet the requirements of distant places, it is enough.
Li Dong doesn't believe that a person has selfish intentions, but the collective has selfish intentions.
What's more, the airlines are just about to be built, and LAN Xingguo and other people want to show their hands and feet. It's meaningless to do other things at this time.
Li Dong thought about this and nodded: "according to your opinion, purchasing 20 300F freighters is enough for all our needs?"
LAN Xingguo said again: "the 767-300f load capacity is still a little large, it is impossible to fully load every time.
In order to save cost, I also want to introduce several 757-200 series passenger aircraft for passenger to cargo conversion, with a commercial capacity of about 25 tons.
The cost of changing passenger aircraft to freighter aircraft has been greatly reduced, and the flight cost of the 757-200 series has also been greatly reduced. Sometimes, it can not reach the full load. The 757-200 series is more suitable.
At present, many domestic airlines use the 757-200 series of modified aircraft for cargoLi Dong thinks it's right to think about it. The 767 series of 50 tons doesn't necessarily have so many goods every time.
It's also necessary to buy some smaller planes.
According to LAN Xingguo, we need to purchase 20 of 767 series, even if 757 is less, there are 5.
Li Dong is not so calm at this time. How can the plane be cheaper?
Although some tycoons in the future will buy their own private planes, in fact, private planes are only for single person service, and the price is actually not as expensive as these passenger and cargo planes.
But even so, those private jets often cost 300.4 billion, which ordinary tycoons can't afford.
Last time, Ma Yun said that Li Dong was stingy. Now Li Dong has bought more than 20 sets. Who dares to say that he is stingy?
Think so, Li Dong has no time to be complacent, slightly coagulate eyebrow way: "how much money?"
LAN Xingguo looked straight and said in a soft voice: "according to the official quotation, the price of 757 series is 130 million US dollars, and that of 767 models is 180 million dollars..."
Li Dong's mouth twitches. According to this quotation, if he buys a new machine, the total price will exceed 4 billion US dollars!
Of course, Li Dong knows that the quotation is the quotation, but the quotation from Boeing is not reliable. There is a large quantity of purchasing and the discount is very high.
And two mobile phones, the price is naturally cheaper.
But LAN Xingguo made an official offer, which was obviously an ambush.
You see, I'm offering you $4 billion now. Do you think it's high?
I'll tell you a price later. The low price scares you to death. Are you making a lot of money?
Li Dong thought thoroughly about the general manager's ideas at the bottom. Obviously, this purchase was not cheap. LAN Xingguo was fighting with himself to make himself more receptive.
Sure enough, seeing Li Dong's face stiff, LAN Xingguo immediately said with a smile: "after all, it's a new model. The cost of an airplane is not cheap. It should be higher.
Fortunately, we purchased two mobile phones this time, and now the freight market is not so good. In addition to the impact of the financial crisis, the second mobile phone in the international market is no different from cabbage.
We visited several airlines and finally talked about it for a while. If we really want to purchase, the 767 series will cost about 200 million yuan.
757 series is cheaper, after all, it has been put into operation for a long time, and 100 million can win, which is the cabbage price in the cabbage price!
Buy 20 767-300f and 5 757-200 passenger modified aircraft, 4.5 billion is enough!
Plus other expenses, the total is less than 5 billion.
And our annual aviation capacity, breaking through 300000 tons, no difficulty!
This kind of investment and achievement is incredible. It is definitely the high return among the high returns!
With the original price of nearly 35 billion aircraft, we will get 5 billion of them... "
Li Dong took a cold breath, and some toothache said: "5 billion? Didn't I say last time that the funding of 2 billion yuan is enough? "
LAN Xingguo said with a dry smile: "last time you said the current scale, we have only 100000 tons of carrying capacity at present. Naturally, 2 billion is enough.
But now the scale is three times larger, and you have also said that in the next few years, our task is very heavy.
In that case, we have to increase the scale.
Of course, if there is no way, we can rent a batch of airplanes first.
But let alone the 757-200 model, the annual rent will be 10 million and 20 million.
We rent five, and the rent for one year is almost equal to the purchase of a new two cell phone.
It's better to buy them directly. What do you think? "
Li Dong looks sad. I think I'd better not have money!
I just said yesterday that the group will raise 5 billion yuan, and it will continue to raise 5 billion yuan in the later stage. A total of 10 billion yuan will be raised for the merger and acquisition of Gome.
At that time, the other faces were green.
Now, the aviation side actually exceeds the advance by 3 billion!
The airline company that plans to invest 2 billion yuan has doubled its scale in an instant. You guys are not afraid of my death, are you?
At present, it seems that there is no need for a capacity of 300000 tons.
But Li Dong knows that with the development of e-commerce and express delivery industry, 300000 tons is nothing.
The no-load capacity of Shunfeng is as high as 150000 tons this year, which is still in 2008.
In three or five years, the downwind no-load capacity is as high as 800000 tons!
300000 tons, in fact, can barely meet the standard for the distance that has accelerated the process of e-commerce.
I'll have to hire some of them later.
Or, go ahead with aircraft procurement.
FedEx Express has more than 500 airplanes, and purchasing 25 from afar is not so good.But think again, now the only domestic express company with aircraft, postal, in these years, only purchased about 20 airplanes.
Distant one-time procurement of 25, instant has become the air express boss!
LAN Xingguo is an old man with great ambition.
He probably got the pulse of Li Dong, so he dared to open his mouth and doubled the investment in an instant.
Li Dong thought for a moment with a sad face and asked, "can we divide the periods?"
LAN Xingguo's eyes brightened and he said, "yes, but the down payment should be at least half of the money.
The rest, we can talk with each other, pay in three years, no difficulty.
After all, airplanes are not disposable products. We have to operate them for some time before we know how their performance is.
When all operations are normal, we will pay the balance. There is no problem.
Now the opportunity is rare. Mr. Li, I can assure you that this price is definitely the lowest price.
When the financial crisis is over, we can make a profit even if we resell airplanes!
In any case, the deal will not be lost. "
Li Dong rolled his eyes. You might as well go to work as a peddler!
Too lazy to answer this question, Li Dong said: "that is to say, at present, we have to allocate at least 500 million more?"
LAN Xingguo coughed and said, "Mr. Li, there is no more than 2 billion on the side of airlines at present. In the early stage, the airport investment, personnel cost, pilot recruitment, security team recruitment, and other hardware expenses are all involved.
All of these have cost nearly 200 million.
Therefore, the group should at least allocate more than 700 million yuan.
In fact, the early operation also costs money. In terms of aircraft maintenance and repair, according to my idea, 1 billion should be enough, and there is no need for the group to invest in the future. "
Li Dong can not Tucao, make complaints about 2 billion, and 1 billion, plus 2 billion 500 million. An airline will get 5 billion 500 million.
If we expand in the later stage, it will be another 10 billion.
But logistics to meet the following requirements, these investments are also necessary.
Long ago, the core of competition was the smooth and fast logistics.
Next, there are a lot of big moves in remote retailing. Without a smooth and convenient logistics system, it is impossible to complete.
And Li Dong, it is impossible for Li Dong to hand over the lifeblood of logistics to others. However, he does it in this way, so he is forced to look ugly from afar.
Having figured out these, Li Dong gritted his teeth and said, "buy! Isn't it a plane? I have money. I buy everything! I'll send it to China right now and spray my name on it. I have to show other people that the private plane is a ball. If I want to buy it, I'll buy the fleet! "
"Poof!"
People in the meeting room are spraying water. Are you serious or are you kidding?
