Chapter 853 Passenger Aircraft Planning

"Is Heshun Airlines still planning to open a new production line?" The old leader took the fruit from Xingxing, but didn't eat it, and then asked Liu Hai.

"We are planning to open another production line to reach an annual output of 110 aircraft. The service life of a passenger aircraft is about 20 to 30 years, and one round is about two to three thousand aircraft."

"The main consideration is the instability of the global market. After all, Europe has its own aircraft manufacturing companies, not to mention the Bald Eagle."

"In fact, I am waiting to license the C101 to a European civil aircraft manufacturing company!"

"Of course, it is not ruled out that they will design a similar aircraft themselves."

"It seems that C101 has accumulated a lot of orders now, but it will soon attract competition from other aircraft manufacturing companies." Liu Hai explained to the old leader.

"Yeah, you have a plan." The old leader thought about it and it was right.

The sudden rise of C101 did cause a lot of trouble for the other two aircraft manufacturing companies.

Of course, it is three aircraft manufacturing companies to be precise, because McDonnell Douglas still exists.

Of course, if McDonnell Douglas' DC10 aircraft is banned from flying, this year's Sioux City air crash will be avoided.

Although McDonnell Douglas suffered huge losses, there are not so many air crashes.

The historical air crash was caused by the second engine, which is the engine at the root of the tail wing. The fan blade inside broke and pierced the hydraulic pipeline behind it.

The plane caused more than 110 deaths when it made an emergency landing.

The other two aircraft manufacturers will definitely go out of business when they see that the C101 sells so well.

If they blindly increase their production now, they will face huge losses later.

As for whether the other two aircraft manufacturers will develop new twin-engine narrow-body long-range passenger aircraft or are willing to obtain the authorization of the C101, it is hard to say.

Now the C101 has accumulated more than 700 orders. The other two aircraft manufacturers, as long as they are not fools, will definitely go out of business.

"I heard that you donated a lot of money this year?" The old leader asked again.

"Old leader, you see I have so much money now, but it's still a mouth to feed, and a bed to sleep in at night. Anyway, my money is earned from Western capitalists." Liu Hai donated another 3 billion to the highway fund.

The main reason is that last year's income was a bit high. Several game companies raised funds and went public, which made a lot of money.

This highway fund is a public welfare organization, and now it has a scale of almost 10 billion.

The main thing is to invest in the construction of highways, and then distribute dividends, and the dividend money is used for charity.

Of course, the highway tolls are not collected by Liu Hai, nor by this fund. The tolls are collected by special companies, and of course these companies must be local companies.

The highway fund only takes dividends from the annual tolls. Of course, the highway fund must play a regulatory role to prevent someone from using the collected money to make false accounts and then reduce the profit rate.

The profit is mainly to care for girls.

Provide help for girls in studying and employment.

"You two are great." The old leader nodded.

Junior sister has a major disease medical fund, which is mainly for some congenital heart diseases, such as congenital ventricular septal defect, and other diseases that have no impact on life if surgery is performed as soon as possible.

"Hehe, I plan to donate another sum next year, so that on the one hand, the speed of national construction will be accelerated, and on the other hand, it will help people in need!" Liu Hai smiled.

"I didn't expect that a computer game would be worth so much money!" The old leader nodded, and naturally knew how much Liu Hai earned.

"This is a major development trend in the future. Maybe you can play games on your mobile phone in the future." Liu Hai handed the peeled fruit to Xingxing.

Because the old leader is old, some fruits can't be bitten, like grapes, it's still okay.

"You young people understand these things better than us older generations." The old leader nodded and picked up a piece of tissue to wipe Xingxing's sweat.

Because Liu Hai was fanning the old leader with a fan just now, after Xingxing brought the fruit, Liu Hai peeled the fruit, and Xingxing held the fan in his hand and fanned it.

"Grandpa, do you want to eat?" Although Xingxing knew that the old leader didn't want to eat, he still had to ask politely.

"Good boy, eat it yourself." The old leader laughed.

Then Xingxing took his brother to other places.

"We want to see the children grow up healthily and happily."

"Is our current strength the strength that we used to call other powers?" The old leader asked again with a smile.

"Although we have that strength, we don't have that heart. What belongs to us is ours, and what doesn't belong to us we will never occupy by force!" Liu Hai nodded, and the 054 destroyers were like dumplings. This kind of regional air defense missile destroyer has become the object of envy of others.

Even the bald eagle now passes outside the island and rarely passes inside the island.

In addition, the three 10,000-ton warships imported from Niu Niu that year have been handed over to the Coast Guard.

Most of the weapons on it have been dismantled, but the six-inch main gun has not been dismantled.

That is, 152 mm, the turret behind the main gun has been dismantled, but a super-powerful water cannon has been installed.

If the opponent dares to fire, use the main gun directly, and if the opponent dares not to fire, use the water cannon.

In addition, a new type of radar and our own navigation system were installed.

And the thickness of the armor of this last generation of artillery cruiser is much thicker than that of missile destroyer.

However, the coast guard can only bully the ships of the small book now, because there is nothing to do in the south, that is, they just go to the south for a stroll.

Most of the time, it is the small book that comes to provoke, but facing this kind of coast guard ship, the small book can do nothing.

It is just that in the class committee and the international community, some powers rely on strong ships and powerful guns to bully others and occupy other people's territory.

The old leader nodded, it is good to have strength. When there was no strength, the big countries would come up and kick. Now that there is strength, even the former small book can only shout loudly.

When Liu Hai was chatting with the old leader, the international Internet was finally connected to the domestic of the fat bear.

The Western media appreciated this matter and believed that the fat bear had joined the international family.

Niu Niu and officials of the Gallic Chicken also made speeches to welcome the fat bear to join the international family.

This optical cable is from the Mediterranean Sea, one goes north to the fat bear, and the other goes south to the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean.

The reason for laying it from the sea is to reduce unnecessary trouble.

Because laying optical cables on land will face construction compensation planning and so on.

Once a certain place cannot be negotiated, the entire construction period will be delayed.

Feixiong's domestic media also reported this matter extensively.

Many foreign investors waved money to help Feixiong build Internet facilities.

To be precise, it was a group of bosses who wanted to open Internet cafes.

However, there was also a group of people in Feixiong who had long been jealous of this kind of benefits.

Then the two sides hit it off. Western investors have money and equipment, and Feixiong's people have connections and territory.

Of course, international Internet games are mainly in English.

Internet games are divided into domestic servers and international servers. Domestic servers are in the language or text of various countries.

International servers still use English, which cannot be unified.

Because there are too many languages ​​in the world.

Of course, with Feixiong's Internet access, this means that the number of Internet users will increase again.

Then the stocks of the original game companies are bullish again.

The market value of the shooting game 1942 has exceeded 2.5 billion US dollars.

There are many companies developing shooting games now, some of which are based on World War II. These game companies have made money to some extent, although not as much as in Counter-Strike.

In addition, there are new game content in war chess games.

Some people have also started to copy turn-based games similar to Pirates of the Caribbean.

Anyway, as long as there are types of games, there are now a lot of game companies developing them.

The three most popular games now are Legend, Counter-Strike, and Pirates of the Caribbean.

This represents three major types of games.

Legend game players like to explode the opponent's equipment the most. The number of paying users of this game has exceeded 1.2 million.

In contrast, the market valuation of Warcraft Continent interactive games has fallen below US$6 billion.

Text interactive games have never been more attractive than several other games.

The number of paying users has almost been halved, and the online rate and online time have also been greatly reduced.

Liu Hai knows this situation well and will wait until the end of the year to buy the bottom himself.

Because the second generation of Panda mobile phones will be released at the end of the year, mobile phones can play text interactive games at that time, of course, in the form of text messages.

In mid-July, Liu Hai received a piece of news before he returned to Kyoto.

Boeing and Euroco also announced the development of new narrow-body long-range passenger aircraft.

Liu Hai also breathed a sigh of relief. These two companies finally went out, but Heshun Airlines' third production line will be able to start production this year.

Although these two companies went out, Liu Hai was not afraid at all because of the manufacturing cost.

However, the other two companies have their own traditional markets, so their C101 will also face competition in their traditional markets in the future.

However, C101 also has an advantage, that is, all exported aircraft use Rolls-Royce engines.

Heshun Airlines has ordered more than 600 engines from Rolls-Royce.

Therefore, it is unlikely that the European and African markets will be impacted by European passenger aircraft.

After all, Rolls-Royce also has interests in it.

"We just talked about aircraft some time ago, but I didn't expect these two companies to come now."

"Will it affect their aircraft sales?" The old leader asked with concern.

"There is definitely an impact, but it is not very big, because the manufacturing cost of our aircraft is much lower than theirs."

"Besides, the C101 we export all uses Rolls-Royce engines, which are still competitive in Europe, Africa, and South America, and the money of civil aviation passenger transport companies is not blown by the wind."

"Buying our aircraft means that the cost of the same aircraft is lower."

"There may be two results. The first result is that European aircraft manufacturers and Boeing manufacturers fight in the country of Bald Eagle!"

"The other result is that these two companies will force us to negotiate, ask us to raise the price together, and cut the leeks of the world together." Liu Hai has been mentally prepared for this matter.

When the old leader heard Liu Hai's analysis and heard that the other two companies wanted us to raise prices together and cut the leeks of the world, he asked: "If it is really the second one, what are you going to do?"

"Of course there will be no price increase. Anyway, C101 has no intention to enter the Bald Eagle market. As for European passenger aircraft manufacturers, I believe that Europe will not have any fatal impact on C101."

"Although Gaul may have some complaints, don't forget that they have sold thousands of helicopters, and subsequent maintenance requires our parts. In addition, we will prepare to upgrade these helicopters in the next step."

"In addition, Gaul has a close relationship with our material imports. Many of the materials we import from West Africa are imported through Gaul's trading company." Liu Hai has already calculated these things.

When dealing with these people in the West, you have to speak with interests. As long as there are interests, everything will be easy to say.

"As for Niu Niu, Rolls-Royce has huge interests in it. European passenger aircraft manufacturers do not simply use Rolls-Royce engines, they also use Pratt & Whitney and General Electric. Instead, we are the only one that uses Rolls-Royce engines."

"That is to say, even if Europe can manufacture narrow-body long-range passenger aircraft, only 20 out of 100 passenger aircraft will use Rolls-Royce engines, and the remaining 80 will use General Electric or Pratt & Whitney. Therefore, Niu Niu is unlikely to conduct antitrust or anti-dumping investigations against us."

"And we use Rolls-Royce engines, so antitrust or anti-dumping cannot be established."

"It is likely that European passenger aircraft companies will compete with Bald Eagle's technology companies in Bald Eagle's traditional market."

"Of course, our airline also has shortcomings, that is, our aircraft types are a bit too single. Now the company is developing medium- and short-range passenger aircraft."

"In addition, the range of C101 is still a little short, and aircraft with longer endurance will be developed in the future."

The old leader nodded when he heard this. It seems that Liu Hai's motivation for buying Rolls-Royce engines was not so simple.

No wonder Liu Hai bought the engine technology of the McDonnell Douglas aircraft series, and then bought the Rolls-Royce engine technology. At that time, many people thought that Liu Hai wasted money, but now it seems that he did not lose money at all.

"110 passenger planes a year!" The old leader thought about how difficult it was to import foreign aircraft at the beginning, and at that time, all of them were exchanged for various materials.

I didn't expect that the annual aircraft production in China has reached such a number. If we count the DC10 cargo planes and other miscellaneous aircraft, the number will be even greater.

"Next, I am also going to try to invest in Rolls-Royce, mainly to cooperate with Rolls-Royce to develop new engines." Liu Hai will definitely not give up on the engine, and Rolls-Royce's engine technology is indeed awesome, which has to be admitted.
