Anti-Japanese War: When I get promoted, the system will explode with soldiers
Chapter 314: Building an Airline
Gu Xiaomeng also knew that she could return to the north this time. How much effort did Li Shaoyi put in? Including the organization documents of the 72nd Division, everything was blocked by the Military and Political Department.
So after returning to the north, I must let Li Shaoyi see my role.
"You won't be returning north with us?"
From what Gu Xiaomeng heard from Li Shaoyi's words, it seemed that he would have to stay in Jinling for a while.
"When I came from the north, I thought the Japanese attack would be quick, so I wouldn't be able to stay in Nanjing for long. But now I have a better idea. I need to renegotiate with the various departments in Nanjing."
Now that we have transport planes, we must make use of them. Li Shaoyi now wants to strengthen his voice and build a civil aviation company, which is a rare thing in this era.
There is only one airline operating in the domestic aviation industry today, and that is Eurasia Airlines, a joint venture between the Ministry of Transportation of the National Government and Junkers Lufthansa.
Li Shaoyi wanted to get a piece of the pie because the profits were so huge.
Take the flight from Beijing to Tianjin for example, the one-way ticket costs 180 yuan.
The fare to Donglu Island City is 460 yuan, and the fare to Pujiang is 1,000 yuan.
Li Shaoyi's plane and fuel have no cost, so no matter how many passengers there are, we will make a profit.
Of course, there is another point. Establishing an aviation network that reaches the whole country can expand one's influence on the one hand, and earn huge profits on the other hand. Of course, the most important point is that it can help train pilots.
This is a three-pronged approach. Of course, this idea only exists in Li Shaoyi's mind now. If he wants to start operating it, he must cooperate with various central departments and give away a portion of the profits, otherwise he will not be able to do it.
When Li Shaoyi expressed his idea, not only Gu Xiaomeng was dumbfounded, but Li Sibei next to her was also a little surprised. Your brain is really different from that of ordinary people. You actually want to set up an airline.
Now in China, in addition to Eurasia Airlines, there is also Air China, which has a very strong background and capital. The total share capital of Eurasia Airlines is more than five million oceans, but it has already reached tens of millions of oceans. Is this something that ordinary people can afford to invest in?
But think about what Li Shaoyi did in the north. He didn't know how many Japanese he robbed, especially the time at the Fengtai military camp outside the city of Peking. It can be said that he made a lot of money, so it's okay.
"What are you looking at? I'm doing this to develop the domestic civil aviation industry. With all these high-ranking officials traveling all over the country, a plane ticket costing a thousand dollars might seem expensive to others, but it's nothing to these people."
What Li Shaoyi said was absolutely true. Nowadays, most of the warlords traveling back and forth still took trains. If they had to take a plane, it was mainly because there were no local air routes.
Who would want to spend several days on the train when they can get something done in seven or eight hours?
What's more, the train has to pass through other people's territories. If you have a good relationship with the local warlords, then you don't have to worry, but if the relationship is not good, you will be very nervous every time you go back and forth, and no one knows what will happen.
Although airplane accidents can happen, the probability is really too small compared to the dangers on the ground.
"That being said, there aren't many people in our country who can afford to fly. Don't go too big. If you do, you'll easily lose money."
Although Li Sibei didn't know how many planes Li Shaoyi was going to deploy, based on Li Shaoyi's previous style of doing things, dozens of planes would definitely be required.
"That's not the case. If we don't have enough people, we can transport goods. For example, if we have a lot of important documents, we can find someone to take them from Peking to Pujiang by train. It won't take several days, but a plane can arrive in a day. It only costs fifty dollars, and there are plenty of people willing to pay."
Wu Zhenkui immediately thought of another thing. He learned that most of Eurasia Airlines' profits came from the transportation of goods. Some people could not afford to spend hundreds or thousands of dollars, but they could still afford to spend dozens of dollars on a letter.
Now many of Eurasia Airlines' cargo shipments are already scheduled for more than a month later, so you can imagine how big this market is.
"Our prices can be 20% lower, so there's no problem in stealing their customers."
Li Shaoyi said arrogantly.
"That's not good. Eurasia Airlines has the backing of the Ministry of Transport. If you make it impossible for them to continue..."
"Then I'll just buy him out."
Li Shaoyi's words made Li Sibei unable to continue. He was too arrogant. However, with Li Shaoyi's current ability, he really had the capital to do so.
"Don't be so tough. Our country is a society based on personal relationships, and sometimes you have to use personal relationships. Let's leave this matter to the two of us. You'd better not get involved. When we're almost done discussing it, you can come and talk in person."
Wu Zhenkui shook his head. Given Li Shaoyi's toughness, if you could succeed in the negotiation, all those guys in Nanjing would be given away for free.
Li Sibei also nodded beside her. We have to be tough when we need to be tough, and soft when we need to be soft. If we keep being tough, we may succeed this time, but not next time.
"But I don't have anything to do in the north. I've already checked the Japanese's movements, and they won't start a war anytime soon. So when do you want to talk?"
Li Shaoyi was still a little skeptical about the time it took for the two to complete the task. We have to get things done quickly.
"It will take at least half a month to see any results. Even if you set up a rickshaw company, you'll have to go through all the formalities."
Hearing Li Sibei's words, Li Shaoyi shook his head.
"Go and ask Dong Yueyan out for me. I'll talk to her in person tonight."
For some things, Li Shaoyi felt that he still had to rely on himself. Although Li Sibei and Wu Zhenkui were capable, they could not finalize the matter. While the matter in the north had not yet started, he would set up the airline himself.
You still want to talk to those people in the Ministry of Transport. What can you get out of talking to them? They are nothing but pests of all sizes.
I will directly find the biggest parasite. Although I will have to share a lot of profits, at least it will be faster. With the help of the people behind Dong Yueyan, who would dare to act rashly in this matter?
"I can make you an appointment, but you have to be aware that if they ask for too much, they're going to want a lot of benefits."
Dong Yueyan wasn't greedy, but the people behind her were extremely greedy. Anyone who had been around Jiangnan knew the true nature of those people...
