I haven't asked my brothers for monthly tickets for a long time. Are you satisfied with the updates these days of thousands of years? If you are satisfied, I beg my brothers to support my monthly ticket. If you don't ask for a ticket, there will be no tickets. The monthly ticket results are too bad o(╥﹏╥)o

After conducting some research on these airlines, Chen Geng understood why these airlines suddenly placed orders for f70: Folk's financial situation was not good before, and everyone was not confident about Folk's company. They were worried that Folk would not be able to hold on one day, so they might naturally waste money. But now Chen Geng has taken over Folk. These airlines that had previously wanted to purchase f70, but were worried about Folk's situation and had not taken action for a long time finally had no worries, so they naturally placed orders one after another.

This survey result left Anthony Folk's executives speechless.

In this way, the problem arises...

"Mr. Fernandez, if we include the 24 confirmed orders from KLM and the 36 orders in negotiations, we have 60 F70 orders in our hands. And it is not ruled out that there will be airlines who will continue to come to us to cooperate after eliminating our concerns," Anthony Folk asked Chen Geng: "How to deal with our cash f70? Should we cancel it? Also, should we delay the new f70?"

Chen Geng shook his head and said, "The new f70 must be launched, but the current f70..."

Chen Geng also felt that the current f70 was a bit tricky. He pondered for a while before saying, "In this way, the current f70 will not make a decision for the time being. I will observe it for half a year before talking about it."

"Ok." Anthony Folk responded, what he thought was the same.

"As for the new f70," Chen Geng thought for a while, and then ordered: "What should you do or what to do, the plan will remain unchanged for the time being."

Anyway, the current F70 and the new F70 are not completely replaced. The relationship is a bit like the second-generation Boeing 737 and the third-generation Boeing 737. When the third-generation Boeing 737 has been put into production, there are still three or four hundred orders for the second-generation Boeing 737. The second-generation Boeing 737 has been continuously produced until the third-generation Boeing 737 has been officially discontinued for four or five years. So in Chen Geng's view, since the current F70 still has sales, there is no rush to stop the current F70 - since the current F70 can still make money, there is naturally no reason to stop production. Do business? If you don't squeeze out the last bit of value of a product, you can't be considered a qualified businessman.

Seeing Anthony Folk nodding, Chen Geng continued: "Also, the airworthiness evidence collection work of f150 must be accelerated, and we will strive to complete all airworthiness evidence collection work within two years."

"Two years... time may be a little tight," Anthony Falk said, "especially the American Faa certification, this..."

Knowing what Anthony Folk was worried about, Chen Geng immediately said: "Don't worry about Boeing stuttering us. Even if Boeing stutters us, I have a way. In short, just one thing is that there must be no problem with the f150 itself."

With Chen Geng's words, Anthony Fok was immediately excited and nodded quickly: "Don't worry about this!"

The development plan for Folk Company in the next ten years was given by Chen Geng and Anthony Folk.

………………………………

In the next month, Chen Geng did not wait for any news from Lockheed, and Chen Geng was not in a hurry. He knew that for a giant-level company like Lockheed, it would be impossible to do this kind of thing without hiding the vast majority of shareholders. To be honest, Chen Geng was not very concerned about this matter: if it succeeds, it would be possible to make a profit, but if it fails, it would be nothing.

A report about McDonald's company that I accidentally saw made Chen Geng feel moved, saying that the board of directors of McDonald's group has passed a product research and development plan that can reshape McDonald's image. This is a large wide-body passenger aircraft that can represent McDonald's top technology and technology level. It can perform trans-Pacific flight missions with a maximum range of between 13,500 kilometers and 15,000 kilometers. The competitor is Boeing's Boeing 747, the world's largest passenger aircraft today.

Damn it!

Seeing this report, Chen Geng scratched his head: Isn’t this the McDonald’s md-12? But was McDonald’s md-12 plan officially announced at this time?

Although I can't remember the specific R&D plan of MD-12, it doesn't matter. Chen Geng immediately picked up the phone and called Xiao McDonald and called in: "Mac, I just saw a report in the newspaper, saying that your McDonald Group is preparing a double-decker and four-speed, a large wide-body passenger plane that can perform intercontinental flights like the Boeing 747. Is it true or false?"

"Did you see the report? Haha..." Little McDonald was not surprised at the news that Chen Geng said. He laughed and said with a hint: "There is such a plan. Our board of directors has just passed. In a few months, we will officially announce our md-12 plan to the public. In addition, correct you, our md-12 target is not Boeing 747, but Boeing 747-400."

Compared with Boeing 747-100/200/300, Boeing 747-400 belongs to the second-generation Boeing 747. Only charges for 1988, and is officially delivered to customers in February of the following year. It is Boeing's flagship product.

Compared with the previous generation of Boeing 747, the second generation of Boeing 747-400 uses more fuel-efficient engines and the avionics system has been fully updated. Boeing proudly uses the new generation of Boeing 747 to demonstrate their absolute strength in the field of large civil aircraft to the world. To be honest, in the 400 to 500-seat segment, the Boeing 747 is Dugu Qiubai.

And now, Little McDonald told Chen Geng that the target they were aiming was actually Boeing 747-400, it was really...

Don't know how to live or die!

Chen Geng sighed inwardly: The md-12 is definitely the most tragic aircraft in the history of world aviation, at least in the history of McDonald Group's development:

Unlike the "one and a half" cabin layout of Boeing 747, the md-12 is a real upper and lower cabin. Not only does it carry more passengers than the Boeing 747, but the most important thing is that any airport that can provide guarantees for the Boeing 747 can provide guarantees and services for the md-12. The key point is that according to McDonald's plan, the fuel consumption per seat of the md-12 is 1%-12% lower than that of 747-400!

It is said that such a NiuX aircraft should receive a steady stream of orders after McDonald announced its R&D plan, right?

But the truth is exactly the opposite, no!

None of them!

Why is it that although the industry is optimistic about md-12, no company has placed an order for McDonald? The reason is similar to what Folk Company is facing now: According to McDonald's announcement, the research and development of md-12 requires US$4 billion to US$5.5 billion (considering the inflation in the next few years), but considering the huge debts that McDonald Group is currently carrying, those airlines that purchase large intercontinental passenger aircraft think it is more reliable to buy Boeing's 747.

Because he failed to get the order, McDonald did not even build the prototype of the md-12.

Having said that, if the md-12 is not dead, then it should be a 380. After all, in this era, the large intercontinental aircraft such as the "hub-hub" of Boeing 747 has no branches except the Boeing 747. As one of the most technologically powerful aircraft manufacturers in the world today, at least from a technical perspective, McDonnell can completely manufacture the md-12. With the Boeing 747 and md-12, Airbus can take a shower and go to bed.

Just hearing the confidence-filled and proud tone of Little McDonald, Chen Geng felt that he should not say these despicable words to stimulate him, and said with a smile: "Congratulations... Then again, it is time to break the monopoly of Boeing 747 on large intercontinental wide-body passenger aircraft."

"Yes, it's time to break the monopoly of Boeing 747," Chen Geng's compliment made McDonald obviously excited: "The md-12 is a product that McDonald reshapes the product image, and the Boeing 747 is still a design twenty years ago. It has lagged too much behind. The md-12 can definitely fight the Boeing 747. According to our plan, the first md-12 can be collected in 1995 and the airworthiness license can be obtained in 1997..."

"I'll interrupt," Chen Geng had to interrupt the little McDonald who sounded a little dizzy, and asked: "A plane of such a large requires a lot of research and development funds, right? How much does it cost?"

As soon as money was mentioned, the little McDonald suddenly withered: "Uh... this... the result we calculated is at least $4 billion..."

"US$4 billion... With McDonald's current poor financial situation and debt ratio, can you afford such a large amount of money?" Chen Geng smacked his lips: "Or is the bank willing to lend you money?"

It’s really a pot that doesn’t open to pick up!

Chen Geng's words made Mark Donner very upset. After whining for a long time, he said: "Uh... this... we have indeed encountered some difficulties in funding, so our initial idea is to find international partners by selling project shares. It is best to raise 67% of the R&D funds. As long as we can raise this fund, we can use the project as collateral and borrow money from the bank..."

Yes!

It turns out that McDonald’s idea is to make money from nothing... Hum?!

Chen Geng suddenly shuddered: Since md-12 is doomed to fail, on the other hand, Lockheed is trying to sell its own mess, can it be...

Chen Geng's thoughts suddenly started to move, and an idea suddenly emerged from his heart.

"That's it," Chen Geng seemed to be interested in the DM-12 project. He thought for a while and said, "I'll ask, can I invest?"

"Are you planning to invest in this project?" Little McDonald didn't expect Chen Geng to have this idea. He was stunned at first and said excitedly: "Of course! Of course we welcome you to invest, uh... But old friend, there is one thing I have to explain in advance. Although we plan to raise 67% of the funds required for the entire project, we will only give up 49% of the project rights at most..."

Hey!
Chapter completed!
