Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Yes, Liszt was really under a lot of pressure to meet Mary Johnson, because this beauty was not only his alumnus at Harvard, but also had a relationship experience between the two that was not ordinary to outsiders. Because of this,  Being hugged by Mary Johnson, Liszt's mind suddenly flew to the big bed in the hotel, and he almost forgot why he came here today.

    "If the beautiful Ms. Mary Johnson really marries our handsome Mr. Lister, then I have nothing to say but congratulations to you for getting married. If not."

    Liszt was just thinking about it when a lazy voice came over. Livingster, the president of Phyllis Airlines, who was backed by McDonnell Douglas, walked over with a smile and nodded politely to Mary Johnson.  Then he said to Liszt: "It's better to come to Phillips Airlines. I happen to be short of a CEO here."

    Before Livingster finished speaking, the top executives of the two airlines with backgrounds from Northrop and Grumman also gathered around and said hello to Lister. The tone was very polite, but everyone could see that the two  People's attitude towards Liszt was not very enthusiastic.

    There were a total of six bidding companies, five of which had large aviation giant backgrounds. In front of these five companies, H Airlines, represented by Lister, looked like a little white rabbit that had just emerged from the hole. Except for a pile of pink and tender meat,  There probably isn't anything worth worrying about for these families.

    So after Liszt rejected the acquisition intentions of the three parties one by one, the five people, as if they had not seen Liszt, gathered together to chat about interesting anecdotes that had recently happened in the United States.

    Even giving him a hug, Mary Johnson, who had a romantic love story, didn¡¯t look at him again. Instead, she chatted happily with the more gentlemanly Livingster.

    Lister was not angry because he was left out. In fact, he had seen too many scenes like this in the past year. There was nothing he could do about it. Today's U.S. aviation industry has shown a trend of high monopoly. The newly established aviation manufacturing industry  Companies are either handbag companies established by aviation giants for various purposes; or they are acquired by giants.

    Like H Airlines, there are very few new companies that are not controlled by aviation giants, let alone compete with them. It is simply impossible not to be squeezed out.

    Fortunately, Liszt had a strong psychological quality and was not hindered by these external forces. He silently walked to the corner and sat down, took out the prepared documents, read them again, and then closed his eyes and waited for the quotation hearing.  start.

    ¡°Dong~~dong~~dong~~¡±

    Ten minutes later, as the moderator of the hearing, the logistics procurement director of the U.S. Department of Justice, Hovinsky, sounded the representative¡¯s solemn drumstick, heralding the official start of the quotation hearing.

    Afterwards, two members of Congress and a Ministry of Justice official made brief speeches, explaining the rules of the hearing, and handed the floor to the moderator Howinski. Howinski glanced at several bidding companies opposite.  , and asked: "Gentlemen and ladies, you can make a quotation now."

    "The Feynman Company's Albatross Model 3 is quoted at US$1.32 million." Norton still maintained his aggressiveness, and Howinski revealed his price.

    At the same time, Mary Johnson, Livingster and others had ugly expressions when they heard the quotation. You must know that the civilian market price of Feynman's Albatross 3 aircraft is basically maintained at around US$1.5 million. The US$1.32 million is obviously intended to  Use low-price strategies to win government orders and squeeze out competitors.

    Apparently Norton¡¯s goal was achieved. The airline executive with a Grumman background shook his head, apologized to Howinski, and left the venue with his staff and documents.

    Norton smiled and chatted with the staff next to him as if he had not seen this scene. In the eyes of others, this scene gave people a sense of familiarity.

    Howinski looked away from Norton expressionlessly and looked at the other bidders.

    Mary Johnson immediately raised her hand: "Our Sky Company's W-2 quotation is US$1.28 million."

    The W-2 aircraft is a new model developed by Sky Company. It is a small aircraft that can carry 12 people. Thanks to the strong technical support of Lockheed, the aircraft has excellent versatility and is very suitable for multi-purpose modification.  As soon as it came out, it was favored by state emergency management departments, the National Guard, and the Coast Guard.

    Therefore, the W-2 aircraft is also a favorite in the Ministry of Justice's bidding, and the US$1.28 million is also very conscientious, making the host Howinski nod with satisfaction.

    Before he could turn his attention to other bidders, Mary Johnson added: "And we can guarantee that the post-maintenance cost will be controlled at US$10,000 and US$5,000 per flight."

    There was an uproar in the hearing as soon as these words came out. The hourly maintenance cost of aircraft, especially manned aircraft, is astonishingly high, so there are aircraft?If you buy one aircraft, you need to buy three for maintenance. US$30,000 per flight is considered a very strong cost control. The cost control of US$15,000 per flight is simply unimaginable.

    Howinski did not expect Mary Johnson to have such a big move, and was stunned in surprise. When he realized what he was doing, he quickly beat the drum in his hand, and the venue immediately fell silent.

    Mary Johnson smiled brightly and turned to look at Norton, who spoke first. Norton smiled bitterly and raised his hand: "Sorry, our aircraft cannot achieve such low maintenance costs, but we are willing to do it at the unit price.  The concession is $1.2 million per aircraft, with free pilot training included.¡±

    Before he finished speaking, Livingster also raised his hand: "The maintenance cost of our Phillips company is also not as low as that of Miss Mary Johnson, and we can only make concessions on the unit price, so our 'Little Falcon'r  The quoted price is US$1.16 million, and the cost of a single flight can be controlled at US$20,000.¡±

    As soon as these words came out, the bidder with a Northrop background who was about to speak, after discussing with his staff, finally shrugged helplessly, apologized to Howinski in disappointment, picked up his things and left dejectedly.  , obviously cannot compete with Mary Johnson, Norton and Livingster in this regard.

    The three of them looked at each other and smiled in a tacit understanding. Only three companies would be left in the bidding this time, and the three of them had discussed it before the hearing. They would drive out the other three companies with low prices. As for the final cost,  It depends on which family is left with the ability.

    Now two companies with aviation giant backgrounds have been squeezed out by them, and their intentions seem to be coming true soon. But the next moment, the smiles of the three people froze, because in the most peripheral corner, the most important thing that should disappear  Liszt was still sitting there, seemingly chatting happily with the staff around him and smiling very relaxedly.

    How can it be?  The name of H Airlines also shows that they are an aircraft manufacturing company. In fact, they don¡¯t even have a factory. They are completely supported by the relationships of shareholders behind them. Even airlines backed by aviation giants cannot handle it.  Can H Airlines sustain the low-price strategy of the three companies?

    Howinski seemed to have noticed something was wrong, and immediately turned his attention to Lister. Lister also raised his hand in cooperation and revealed a shocking price: "Our discovery - Type 1 aircraft is priced at US$680,000 per flight, and maintenance is required per flight.  Cost $3,000!¡±
