It is very necessary for the world's richest man like Xiao Qi to have a sense of presence at the top of the country. 1▽
It's the same in any country. The more you do for this country, the smoother your development will be.
Entrepreneurs who think about how to make money all day long, how to make money from the common people, but do not give back to society will not be praised by anyone.
Xiao Qi repeatedly made suggestions for the development of the country, which not only won the praise of Niu Ruzheng, but also gained favor at the entire national level, which will make the development of Fairy Girl Company smoother.
Of course, you still need to be strong in order to forge iron.
On the other hand, Xiao Qi must also actively develop his own smart electronics industry so that Huaguo will always be at the forefront of this industry. This technological leadership will bring greater strength and influence to Xiao Qi.
With these two aspects of preparation, the Xiao family can develop faster and better, and truly become a behemoth that others cannot shake.
However, as for the development of the Xiao family, that is all a matter for later. The first descendant of the Xiao family is still in the belly of the baby's mother.
Therefore, the most important thing for Xiao Qi now is to take good care of the two pregnant women around him, and then pay attention to the two pregnant mothers in the United States at all times.
Huangfucai, Tang Mingxiang, Yu Shanshan, and Xiao Taylor, these four wives are the first to give birth to children. Whoever's due date is earlier, Xiao Qi will appear there.
Huangfucai and Yu Shanshan are both in Chengdu. The midwifery team here has arrived. It is not just a Japanese aunt, but two teams from several private midwifery hospitals in Japan with a history of more than a hundred years.
, there were no less than ten people, helping them prepare for natural birth.
There are also two such teams in the United States. Little Taylor and Yu Shanshan are both in the same high-end villa area, not far from each other.
In fact, many young people in China don't know that now. They think that whether a natural birth is a natural birth or not, the doctor will not know until the last few days of delivery to confirm.
In fact, if you want to give birth naturally, mothers must make various preparations one or two months in advance, such as exercise, etc. to ensure that their life entrance and exit are flexible enough to help their children come into this world.
If the mother never makes preparations and just eats and drinks every day, it will be difficult for her to have a normal delivery.
Therefore, these teams have recently been focusing on smooth delivery and allowing pregnant mothers to adhere to the exercises passed down by the ancients.
Based on their body and baby's condition, these experienced midwifery team ladies can determine when their amniotic fluid will break and the baby will be born.
The current rough judgment is that Tang Mingxiang and little Taylor will be born three days early, and then it will be Huangfu Cai and Yu Shanshan's turn.
So Xiao Qi planned to go to the United States three days in advance and rush back to China a week later, just in time to accompany his other two wives for their natural births.
Although it was a bit harder, and although there was no way to accompany his wives throughout the confinement period, it was still the best solution Xiao Qi could think of.
Xiao Qi was originally happily doing exercises with his wives and waiting for the birth of their children in January, but someone refused to let him relax. Something came to his door again.
The matter is related to the oil purchased by Xiao Qi.
In order to boost people's confidence, Russia directly listed Xiao Qi's purchase of 22 billion US dollars of oil. Although everyone who should know knows that this is purely because Russia borrowed money and had no money to repay its debts, so it took the oil
Offset, but this fact exists.
The price of the 22 billion U.S. dollars of oil purchased by Xiao Qi was not based on the 39 U.S. dollars a barrel purchased by PetroChina.
Because before, Xiao Qi lent real money to the three major oil companies in Russia. Now it would be better for you to return the oil you cannot sell to me in money. This is really a wishful thinking.
Therefore, in terms of price, it is naturally impossible to calculate it according to the market price. Russia secretly calculates it at 30 US dollars a barrel. In this way, Xiao Qi will have a total of 733.34 million barrels of oil.
Even if the outside world doesn’t know there is so much oil, just based on the market price of 39 US dollars a barrel, there are 561.41 million barrels of oil. It would be useless to use this much oil to a group company that does not sell petroleum products.
I know it will take decades.
Even if Xiao Qi has a fleet of more than 30 passenger and cargo planes and a fleet of short- and medium-distance trucks and minivans spread across the country, it won't take much.
Therefore, Morgan Stanley originally had a good negotiation with Japan Airlines Co., Ltd., and Japan Airlines has agreed to sell 25 737-400 and 737-800 aircraft at a price of approximately US$35 million to US$50 million.
That's like 30% off.
The prevailing prices in the market are generally 20% off the purchase price for second-hand aircraft within 5 years, and 40% off for those within 10 years.
What Xiao Qi selected this time were all aircraft in good condition that had been in service for no more than 2 years. Logically speaking, the lowest price was 15% off.
However, Japan Airlines' losses were so severe that it sold it to Xiao Qi at a price 15% lower than the market price, which can be said to be a desperate attempt to survive.
However, after hearing the news that Xiao Qi had bought 561.41 million barrels of cheap oil, Japan Airlines wiped away tears and sorrow, but at the same time changed the course of the negotiations and strongly demanded that the double-decker passenger plane 747-400 in its hands, that is,
The commonly known super oil tiger was sold to Xiao Qi.
The price of a new double-decker 747-400 is about US$250 million each. Now Japan Airlines is selling 10 double-decker 747-400s that have been in service for less than 5 years for US$100 million each. Regardless of
In terms of price and the aircraft itself, it is very cost-effective.
Without the current financial crisis, the price of these double-decker 747-400s would be at least US$180 million.
Japan Airlines has said that if Xiao Qi does not buy these double-decker 747-400s, then the 737-400 and 737-800 sales that they had negotiated before will be immediately cancelled.
All right.
Japan Airlines saw that Xiao Qi had bought too much oil, and had no concerns about oil tigers at all, so it wanted to throw away the burden to Xiao Qi.
Although selling the double-decker 747-400, which is less than 5 years old, at a 40% discount is a huge loss for Japan Airlines, if they don't sell these gas giants, they will still spend a lot of money keeping them there.
It’s a dilemma if you want to fly out and don’t have so much gas money.
Moreover, even if it is not sold, in the next few years, Japan Airlines will continue to reduce its overseas business and actively develop short- and medium-haul fast-turnover business to save the company's profits, so the double-decker 747-400 will be left.
There is really no need for such a greasy tiger.
Instead of being entangled like this now, it is better to just sell it to Xiao Qi. On the one hand, it can reduce the burden, and on the other hand, it can raise more funds to deal with the immediate crisis.
Xiao Qi burst out laughing when he heard Morgan Stanley's conditions.
I bet Japan Airlines really thinks of themselves as being taken advantage of. No matter how rich I am, I can’t buy a gas-fueled tiger like the 747-400!
It is not an exaggeration to say that a double-decker aircraft like the 747-400 is a fuel guzzler.
With four engines, it has a maximum fuel capacity of 216,840 liters, which is close to 217 tons!
This guy consumes 5 tons of fuel for one take-off action, and about 11 tons of fuel for one hour of flight. A trip from Chengdu to New York is 180 tons of fuel.
Calculated based on the fact that one ton of oil is equal to 6.29 barrels, one such flight requires barrels of jet fuel. If calculated as crude oil, this amount would have to be doubled, that is, 2,265 barrels.
Calculating the current market price of a barrel of crude oil at US$39, it is more than 640,000 yuan converted into RMB. Including route fees, maintenance costs, etc., it is not surprising that the total cost of one trip is one to two million.
The price is so expensive. The key is, can you guarantee that this long-distance flight will be available every day? Can it be full every time?
The short- and medium-haul ones are very easy to operate. If you don’t fly to Guangdong today, you can fly directly to Thailand. If you don’t go to Caiyun, you can also go to western Guangdong. It is easy to adjust and it is not easy to let it idle and not work, so I bought 737-400 and 737-
A small aircraft like the 800 is very easy to operate.
However, Japan Airlines is not stupid, and will never think that Xiao Qi has oil, so it should buy from them.
Therefore, they also directly provided a benefit, that is, they helped open three lines bound for Tokyo Narita, Hokkaido Chitose, and Osaka International Airport twice a week, so that Shuchuan passengers can travel to Japan more quickly and conveniently.
They all have good ideas. A direct flight from Chengdu to Japan usually takes 6-7 hours. For such a medium and long distance, although using the 747-400 is a bit luxurious, it is definitely not a waste. Such a 747-400
There is a place for it.
But Xiao Qi refused directly and withdrew the negotiating team.
Because Xiao Qi knows very well that the relationship between China and Japan will be very bad in the next few years, and the occurrence of Japan's 311 nuclear radiation will further dampen the enthusiasm of Chinese people to travel there.
Sichuan is not like the East. Not many people like to travel to Japan, and even fewer will encounter what will happen in the next few years.
Therefore, if Xiao Qi buys a 747-400 and plans to fly to Japan, baby Xiaoyuer will definitely cry because of the loss!
Speaking of which, the Japanese are really awesome. They have reached such a point where it is difficult to return, but they still want to grab food from the tiger's mouth. I really don't know whether they will not give up their efforts, or they are just too proud of themselves? (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.
