Chapter 158 Ghost Plane!
Chapter 158 Ghost Plane! (Please subscribe!)
Xu Cang's words seemed a little too threatening, but in fact the representative of Chengdu Airlines knew that if the Airbus 320 flight ban continued, Chengdu Airlines would be very dangerous.
The reason Chengdu Airlines is still able to hold on now is because the aircraft has not yet reached the time when it really needs to be maintained, and now it is basically just some daily maintenance.When the aircraft began to undergo major repairs one after another, the capital investment would suddenly increase, and there would be aircraft that would be leased one after another, and the lease renewal fee would be a large expenditure, enough to completely overwhelm Chengdu Airlines.
The timing of the Airbus 320's flight ban this time was too bad, just when a large number of aircraft D-checks and leases expired.Therefore, in another quarter at most, the company's expenses can consume all the profits of the past few years.
When there is no funds, it will be scraping the company's bones and blood to support it.
Nowadays, the investigation progress of Airbus 320 is completely hopeless, and Rongcheng Airlines really can't wait any longer.
"Xu Cang, the choice you gave us is really terrible." The representative of Rongcheng Airlines sighed.
Xu Cang's face was indifferent: "I have no grievances or enmity with you, if you want to blame you, you have to blame Wang Baotian. I have already been very polite to you, if you still want to protect Wang Baotian, believe it or not, I will put you all together." The company provided it."
It is not so difficult to deal with an airline like Chengdu Airlines that has tied its entire family and life to Airbus and has no background.
At least if Xu Cang changes the conditions with Airbus from the Jinmen General Assembly Plant to the rectification of Rongcheng Airlines, Airbus will definitely be happy. The 9451 incident did bring Xu Cang a very strong bargaining chip.Moreover, Xu Cang knew in his heart that 9451 was indeed a problem with the plane itself. He dared to make deals with so many parties not because of fooling around, but because he really held an important bargaining chip.
However, unless it was absolutely necessary, Xu Cang didn't want to unite with outsiders to squeeze "his own people".
The representative of Chengdu Airlines immediately thought of certain possibilities, and his face turned pale.Ma Cheng next to him became a little impatient: "Mother-in-law, can you be a little more decisive?"
"Xu Cang, if I agree, how soon will this matter settle down?" asked the representative of Rongcheng Airlines.
Xu Cang said: "How can I know the specific time, the key is to see when Airbus will figure it out. However, it will come soon."
According to the intelligence capabilities of CFM Corporation, by now no matter what, he should know that IAE Corporation is looking for him alone.If CFM's reaction speed is normal, it is estimated that it has already begun to communicate with Airbus.
The representative of Rongcheng Airlines did not hesitate after hearing this: "Okay, let's do this! I will collect materials when I go back, and apply to the bureau to revoke Wang Baotian's title of meritorious pilot. Please keep your promise."
Xu Cang breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the representative of Rongcheng Airlines had finally given in.Although he said that he must avenge his revenge, he did not implicate other people.If the representative of Rongcheng Airlines persisted and wanted Xu Cang to take care of Rongcheng Airlines together, Xu Cang might not be able to do it.
After all, there are too many ordinary employees in Chengdu Airlines.Pilots don't care, they can eat anywhere with their skills, and it's a good meal.But those ordinary employees, especially the ground administrative staff, once they lose their jobs, they will have to start all over again, and it is not certain whether they can start all over again.
However, Xu Cang still felt very lucky that he hadn't developed to that stage.
"Don't worry, my reputation has always been very good, right, Mr. Ma?"
Ma Cheng rolled his eyes and said nothing.However, although he said he was unhappy with Xu Cang, what Xu Cang said just now did have some truth, at least when Xu Cang helped settle Boeing's production capacity quota, he did it neatly.
The representative of Rongcheng Airlines was obviously not in a good mood. He hummed and walked out without saying hello.Seeing that the matter was over, Ma Cheng was also ready to leave.
As a result, just as Ma Cheng was about to leave, Xu Cang grabbed Ma Cheng and approached him with a smile: "Mr. Ma, why are you in a hurry to leave?"
Ma Cheng shook off Xu Cang's grasping in disgust, and asked vigilantly, "Can you stop laughing at me, I always feel like you're thinking about some bad idea again!"
"No, no, I'm very kind-hearted, so why would I have any bad ideas?" Xu Cang's face was thick, and he approached a little bit: "I said Mr. Ma, for a company as big as Muhua Airlines, it's too redundant There should be a lot of other people, right?"
Ma Cheng frowned suddenly: "What are your plans, kid?"
Xu Cang finally showed a look of embarrassment: "Since there are so many people, how about some of us?"
After all, in a giant company like Muhua Airlines, there are people who don't mind the environmental conditions and only want to make money.Although it is still possible to borrow some resources from Blue Sky Airlines, Ma Cheng has agreed to sell the airline company quota, so the recruitment of other personnel should be on the agenda.
"Is it so well-balanced? Isn't this just poaching?" Ma Cheng was convinced, and Xu Cang was really courageous in front of himself, a high-level person of Muhua Airlines.
"How can this be called poaching? It's so ugly. It should be called the rational distribution of human resources!" Xu Cang said with a playful smile, "I'll pass on our company's recruitment information to you later, and you can promote it at Muhua Airlines. "
The veins on Ma Cheng's forehead popped up, and he almost laughed angrily: "You asked me to promote your company's recruitment information in our company, Xu Cang, are you okay!"
"To be honest, Xu Cang, you really want to start an airline company here. I admit that your flying skills are very good, but operating an airline company is not the same thing as flying."
Xu Cang said with a smile: "You are not afraid that we will develop into Muhua's competitors, are you? Don't worry, we are in the low-end market, and we have no competitive relationship."
"Low-end market?" Ma Cheng was taken aback, and a little curious: "How low is it?"
"Guess how much is the ticket from Erhai Lake to Yangcheng?"
Ma Cheng smacked his lips, thought for a moment, and said a number: "One thousand and five?"
"Taller!"
"One thousand and two?"
"It's still too high!"
"No!" Ma Cheng was speechless: "You shouldn't sell it for one thousand, it's too low."
Xu Cang shook his head: "It's not a thousand."
Ma Cheng breathed a sigh of relief: "Let me just say, what is there to sell for a 1000 yuan air ticket?"
But Xu Cang smiled slightly: "It's not one thousand, it's five hundred! The ticket from Erhai to Yangcheng is five hundred!"
"Five hundred, what are you kidding?" Ma Cheng's face changed suddenly: "Five hundred is a ticket, why do you still sell air tickets, forget about driving a bus! Xu Cang, airplanes are a high-end way of travel. Change the brand from high-end It is easy to make a low-end product, but it is very difficult to make it from a low-end product to a high-end product, so don’t lose too much because of small things.”
Xu Cang didn't think there was anything wrong with him: "Anyway, I'm targeting the low-end market, and I don't want to go back to high-end."
"Children can't be taught." Ma Cheng waved his hand, said nothing more, stepped out of the house, and followed the representatives of Rongcheng Airlines to the courtyard.
Xu Cang smiled and shouted towards Ma Cheng's back: "I said Mr. Ma, I will send the recruitment information to your mobile phone later, you have to remember what I said."
As a result, Ma Cheng didn't reply at all, until his back was hidden in the shadows, and he was never seen again.
"Tsk tsk tsk, you have a big temper." Xu Cang muttered.
After talking with Ma Cheng, Xu Cang went upstairs again, only to find that Tan Heling had also come over, and even Qin Xin had come inside.
Xu Cang was a little strange and asked Qin Xin, "What are you doing here?"
Qin Xin pulled Xu Cang to the door, and said in a low voice, "The ticketing information from the group has come back."
Their base sells tickets not through Blue Sky Airlines, but through spring and summer tourism.Therefore, Xu Cang and the others could not know how the air tickets were selling in a timely manner.
"How to say?" Xu Cang's eyes widened immediately. This is the maiden voyage, and it must be a good start.
"A total of eleven tickets were sold for the flight from Erhai Lake to Yangcheng," Qin Xin said.
"There are no foreign tourists in Erhai Lake now. It doesn't matter the part of the trip, the key is the part of the way back." Xu Cang was not discouraged by the dismal ticket sales for the outbound trip. What he really needed to see was the part from Yangcheng to Erhai Lake.
A smile suddenly appeared on Qin Xin's serious face: "It's all sold out! A friend from my group told me that it was almost sold out within two hours after it was released. Xu Cang, it's true that cheap tickets are easy to sell."
Xu Cang's air ticket price this time is no longer low, but super low.The price cut was more than a half discount, so it's no wonder that Ma Cheng listened and said that it would be better for Xu Cang to drive a bus.
"Okay, okay!" Xu Cang was also very excited. As long as there are more tourists waiting for the Erhai Lake, there will be more and more people in the Erhai Feiyang City section, thus forming a virtuous circle.
Xu Cang thought for a while: "Have you calculated the income and expenditure of these two paragraphs?"
Qin Xin's smile restrained a little: "After a rough calculation, I lost a little bit. However, I already feel very good, after all, it's just the beginning."
This part of the outbound journey is basically empty planes. Even if the return journey is full, and the air ticket price is too low, the profit will definitely be negative.Qin Xin was mentally prepared, so her reaction to flying a flight at a loss was not great, and she even said that it was much better than she expected.
Xu Cang patted Qin Xin on the shoulder: "Everything is difficult at the beginning, but it will definitely get better later on. I also think that this beginning is already very good, and I was prepared to miss the plane twice at the beginning. "
Qin Xin nodded heavily. The ticketing on the first day definitely gave her great confidence.
"Okay, you go to rest, and you deliberately got up early to tell me this?"
"I can't sleep. I haven't felt sleepy since last night. I'll squint for a while to see if I can fall asleep." Although Qin Xin looked very energetic, her complexion was not very good. It was obvious that she had stayed up all night .
Xu Cang pushed Qin Xin: "Go now. You should be relieved if the tickets are sold like this, go!"
After seeing off the worried Qin Xin, Xu Cang returned to the preparation room.Seeing Xu Cang's return, Mo Shangyun threw the clearance documents to Tan Heling who was opposite, stood up, and waved to the crew: "Let's go, we're entering."
A loud cheer ensued, and the inaugural flight finally began.
Because it was too early, when Xu Cang and the others entered the arena, there was no light at all around. Even with the headlights on, the road could not be seen clearly, so that they drove for less than 5 minutes during the day. It took nearly 10 minutes early.
However, fortunately, Mo Shangyun deliberately moved ahead of time, so this little accident didn't have much impact.
When everyone arrived at the terminal building of Erhai Airport, there were only sparse lights inside.The airport has opened all the passages in advance. After entering the lobby, there is only one person at the check-in counter, and there is a passenger who is getting a boarding pass. Other than that, there is no one at all.
To be honest, this kind of atmosphere really follows the ghost town.
A group of people passed through the security check passage under the slightly curious eyes of the security check personnel, and saw their own boarding gate as soon as they passed.There is no way, Erhai Airport has only four bridge seats, and the waiting hall can be seen at a glance.Once inside, the only lit gate was their flight gate.
"It's too deserted." The purser was a little surprised.She had heard about the situation at Erhai Airport, but even so, after seeing the depression of the airport with her own eyes, she still felt incredible.
Taking root in this kind of airport, can it really grow a strong tree?
"It's okay, there will be more people in the future." Xu Cang's confidence increased greatly after hearing Qin Xin's ticket information just now.It is indeed very depressed here, but it also means that this place will be an extremely vast blue ocean.
Mo Shangyun, who was walking at the front, smiled gratifiedly when he heard Xu Cang's heartfelt words.The purser also laughed: "I hope it's the same as what you said."
So under the curious eyes of more than a dozen passengers at the boarding gate, Xu Cang and his party passed the boarding gate.Although the scene looked very deserted, there was none of the services that should be lacking.
The ground service personnel at the boarding gate, the refueling master, and the cleaning personnel were all arranged in time.And the maintenance crew is Xu Cang and his own people, who arrived earlier than the crew.
Although the maiden voyage is of great significance, there is no difference in the process.Xu Cang was purely for soy sauce this time. After refueling, the boarding gate just opened.
Since there were too few people in the first section, there were no more than 5 minutes, and all the people were there.
Although the time was a bit rushed, there were two pilots in the cockpit, Mo Shangyun and Tan Heling, who had the route certificates, and the preparation speed was quite fast. Everything was done at the same time as the hatch was closed, and there was no delay at all.
Xu Cang began to sleep from the moment the plane was pushed out, and did not wake up until the landing gear was lowered on approach to Yangcheng.Then after the plane lands, repeat the above process.
At the middle point of the voyage back, Xu Cang woke up with a sore neck.
When Mo Shangyun heard the movement behind him, he turned around with a half-smile and asked, "How do you feel?"
Xu Cang rubbed his neck: "It has always been difficult for the observer to sit, especially when sleeping."
"That's really wronging you." Mo Shangyun didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I think you don't want to take the seat behind you, I'm afraid you're sleepy."
The facial features on Xu Cang's face were crowded together: "My mind is clear, but it seems that I have a stiff neck, and my neck is uncomfortable. Forget it, after I don't fly, let's talk about obtaining qualifications later."
At this time, Tan Heling interjected: "Xu Cang, why don't you sit in the back, the observer's chair is really uncomfortable."
The observer's chair is foldable and can be stowed away, which is convenient and does not take up much space.However, this structure is destined to be completely sacrificed in terms of comfort.
Basically, the observer's seat is a structure similar to a chair formed by wrapping some simple materials on an iron frame.Sitting on it for a long time will make the waist and buttocks very uncomfortable.
Since Xu Cang didn't plan to take the seat, he could go to the back and sit, at worst, he would come in after approaching.
Xu Cang wiped his face, it seemed that he still didn't get enough sleep.Mo Shangyun was really speechless: "I said Xu Cang, you kid, did you stay up all night last night, can you be so sleepy?"
"Um, almost." Xu Cang unfastened his seat belt and stood up, putting away the chair: "I don't know why, maybe I'm too excited, I can't fall asleep anyway, at most I really slept for less than an hour."
"Forget it, forget it." When Mo Shangyun heard that Xu Cang fell asleep for less than an hour, he waved his hand in surprise, "Go to the back and squint, and remember to take off the epaulet tie."
Although all the tickets are sold, some seats will be reserved in the front row of the cabin for the crew.Xu Cang will definitely have an empty seat if he goes to the cabin later.
Xu Cang gestured: "Understood!"
Soon, Mo Shangyun informed the flight crew that Xu Cang was coming out via internal message.After making some preparations, Xu Cang, who had already taken off the epaulettes and tie, came out of the cockpit, handed the epaulettes and tie to the purser for safekeeping, and ran into the cabin by himself.
Sure enough, there were four empty seats in the front row.Xu Cang found one at random, sat on it, and felt that his soul was about to melt.Sitting on the broken chair of the observer for a long time, and then sitting on the chair in the cabin, it is really a fairy-like enjoyment.
Xu Cang put the back of the chair back, adjusted the angle of the back of the chair, and was ready to continue sleeping. He even brought earplugs for winding the plane.These earplugs are standard equipment for pilots, and most of them are used when flying around the plane on the tarmac.
Because sometimes when you go around the plane, you will encounter other planes carrying in. If the distance is closer, the movement will really shake your mind.It is for this reason that, for the purpose of protecting the pilot's hearing, the airline will issue earplugs to each pilot, and the quality is quite good.
Xu Cang was just about to plug in his earplugs, but he heard a middle-aged woman's voice from the side: "I just heard that Erhai Lake is very beautiful, but we don't know how to get here, where to go, you Would you like to tell us something?"
Where the flight attendant can answer this question, they can only apologize: "Sorry, I really can't answer this question. When you arrive at Erhai Airport, there should be travel information over there."
"Huh? This is too troublesome."
Flight attendant: "Sorry, this is really beyond my ability."
After finishing speaking, the flight attendant was about to go back to the front cabin work room, but when he turned his head, he bumped into Xu Cang who had turned his head, showing half of his head.She was startled, and blurted out: "Brother, what are you doing?"
However, Xu Cang did not answer her, but smiled at the middle-aged woman who asked the question before: "Auntie, let me tell you how to play in Erhai Lake."
About three to ten minutes later, the flight attendant came into the cockpit to get Mo Shangyun's empty water glass, and he had to heat the water for Mo Shangyun later.
When passing the cup, Mo Shangyun asked casually: "What is Xu Cang doing behind, sleeping?"
The flight attendant took Mo Shangyun's cup and smiled: "He's working as a tour guide!"
"Guiding what, tour guide?" Mo Shangyun was startled, not knowing why: "What do you mean by being a tour guide?"
"Literally." The purser did not leave in a hurry, but said: "Many passengers don't know how to play in Erhai Lake. As a result, Xu Cang has been talking about it for half an hour. It's not over."
"Ah?" Mo Shangyun was stunned: "He still understands this? He's not from Erhai, right?"
The purser shrugged: "If you are not a local, then you have really worked hard. Our co-pilot is really special. Instructor, is there anything else you need, a small towel, fruit?"
"No need, just fill up the water for me." Mo Shangyun waved his hand to signal the purser to go out.
When the purser left, Mo Shangyun listened quietly for a while, and could faintly hear Xu Cang's voice coming from behind.
"Really." Mo Shangyun really convinced Xu Cang that he could work part-time as a tour guide on the plane.
Tan Heling expressed his feelings: "Teacher, Xu Cang really took this matter as his own career."
Mo Shangyun can understand Xu Cang's thoughts, but it's just that it seems too aggressive.
Talking in the cabin for almost an hour, it was a parched Xu Cang who didn't sleep for a minute after all. Seeing that the plane was about to approach, he hurried back to the cockpit.
As soon as he entered the cockpit, Xu Cang, whose brain was hypoxic, felt drowsy. He didn't last for 2 minutes, and fell asleep again.He waited until the plane landed and turned off before being woken up by Mo Shangyun.
Wiping the drool from his mouth, Xu Cang was still a little dazed, and looked at the seat sign: "Ah, the car is closed now?"
"What else do you want, why don't you fly two flights and sleep for another two, is it so easy to sleep on the plane?" Mo Shangyun said helplessly.
"I didn't expect to be so sleepy. Oh, who cares, I'll get off work after flying." Although he didn't feel any sense of participation in the whole process, Xu Cang still had a natural liking for getting off work, and his mind suddenly came to his senses.
This is the so-called drowsiness when the engine sound sounds, and when the engine sound is turned off, I immediately feel refreshed, which is a true portrayal of a pilot.
After they finished disembarking, Xu Cang happily took the flight case placed on the luggage rack in the cabin, and quickly followed Mo Shangyun's footsteps.
In order to save money, they did not sign an agreement with the airport, so they could not exit from the airport apron, but could only leave from the terminal building like passengers.However, Erhai Airport is very small, even if you walk to the terminal building, it is a matter of a few more steps, which does not matter much.
The crew went all the way to the arrival gate, and saw that there were many passengers on the plane gathered at the bus station at the airport.Just as Xu Cang was about to get on the bus, he was stopped by a voice: "Young man, can you help us see how to get on this bus?"
Xu Cang took a closer look and saw that it was the passengers on their plane.So Xu Cang didn't get on the train for the time being, but walked over and explained: "Auntie, this bus runs every two hours, you probably have to wait."
"Two hours, how long will I have to wait?" The middle-aged woman said with embarrassment, "It would be very expensive to take a taxi to the city."
As soon as this remark came out, many tourists also complained.They all said that the traffic here is really bad, and some of them started to regret coming here.
Xu Cang scanned around here, and estimated that there were thirty or forty people, so he quickly shouted: "You are waiting here now, a car will come to pick you up soon."
The middle-aged woman said happily: "Didn't you say two hours? Why did you have another car?"
"I'll arrange it for you." Xu Cang shouted again: "At most fifteen minutes, just wait a moment."
After saying this, Xu Cang hurriedly turned his head and got on the crew car, and then the crew car sped away, leaving behind a group of passengers who didn't understand the situation.
Not long after, two people walked over from the arrival gate, one of them was thin and in his 40s, wearing a plaid shirt and a jacket, with his hands behind his back, in an old-fashioned way.
Behind him was a young man who was reporting to work at the moment: "Director, an airline company has recently settled in and opened a flight to Yangcheng."
"Just one? Are there other airlines willing to come in?" The middle-aged man asked, but his eyes were always on the bus stop where people gathered.
The young man looked a little embarrassed: "Well, no other airlines have proposed to us the idea of stationing here yet."
The middle-aged man sighed: "The conditions in Erhai Lake are still too bad. However, I think the group of people in front are all brought over by the route from Yangcheng? There are a lot of people! Let's go and have a look!"
This middle-aged man is Hu Ming, director of the Erhai City Poverty Alleviation Office.However, he is not a native of Erhai. He has just been transferred here and is still in the stage of understanding the situation.
Following him is his assistant Nancy Xi.
The two of them had just walked to the bus stop, and they were planning to ask the passengers, but they saw a brand new minibus and an old van driving over.Then, the door of the minibus opened, and a young man in a white shirt came down and shouted at the crowd gathered at the bus stop: "If you go to the city, get on the bus, and the van behind can also take people."
This young man is Xu Cang.That's right, he let the crew car that sent the crew back go back and forth, and even called the van with the grocery shopping.
The crowd waiting for the car saw that there was indeed a car, and started to get into the car one after another. It didn't take long for the seats to be almost full.When the people were almost there, Xu Cang looked around at the door of the car to confirm that there were no missing persons. He happened to see Hu Ming and Nan Xixi who hadn't figured out the situation yet.
"I said uncle, why are you still standing?" Xu Cang stuffed Hu Ming into the minibus, then glanced at Nan Xixi: "You are going to the city, get on the bus?"
"We." Nan Xixi had never seen such a battle before, but seeing that the leaders were already in the car, she bit the bullet and followed.
After confirming that there was really no one on the platform, Xu Cang got into the car, patted the driver and said, "Let's go!"
Under Xu Cang's instruction, the door was closed, the car started, and drove towards the city.
In the car, Xu Cang turned to a car and said: "When you arrive in the urban area, you can follow the route I told you on the plane. Of course, you can also have your own ideas, but it's best to ask the locals first. .”
The middle-aged woman just said with a smile: "Young man, I saw you wearing a pilot's uniform just now. When I was on the plane, I thought you were a flight attendant. I wonder why there are male flight attendants."
"Auntie, there are still male flight attendants, not many."
"Then how much is our car?" The middle-aged woman asked, "Please give us a ride."
Xu Cang quickly waved his hand: "I don't want money. If I ask for money, wouldn't this car become a black car?"
Hearing that no money was required, the atmosphere in the car became even more heated.
Hu Ming, who was sitting in the last row, looked at Xu Cang with great interest.From what the middle-aged woman said just now, this young man is still a pilot. Could it be that he is the crew of the Yangcheng flight?
It's just how can this crew do some tour guide work?
With growing curiosity, Hu Ming waited for a long time, and the car finally arrived at the urban area.
Xu Cang got out of the car first, and then took the trouble to show people the way, sending everyone away except Hu Ming and Nan Xixi.When Xu Cang said that smoke was coming out of his throat, he found Hu Ming was looking at him and scratching his head: "I said uncle, you were the slowest to get on the bus just now, why are you walking the slowest now. Doesn't it all go to the urban area?" Well, where are you going, if I know, I can give you some advice?"
At this time, Nan Xixi came out: "He is Director Hu Ming of the Municipal Poverty Alleviation Office, and we are not tourists."
"Ah? An official!" Xu Cang blushed suddenly, and he actually forced the leader of the Poverty Alleviation Office into the car.
However, Hu Ming signaled Nancy Xi not to speak, but kindly asked Xu Cang: "Sending these people here should not be the service scope of your airline?"
Xu Cang was also unconcerned: "Whose responsibility should we care about at this time? We are closely related to Erhai City. Only when Erhai City's tourism develops can we follow suit."
"Okay! Well said! We are all on the same boat. There is no division of responsibilities. The development of tourism in Erhai City is the common goal." Hu Ming came all the way to observe Xu Cang's words and deeds, and followed the car. The passengers asked about what they had seen on the plane, and when they heard that Xu Cang was promoting the tourist route of Erhai Lake on the plane, they immediately felt that Xu Cang was not simple.
After thinking for a while, Hu Ming asked, "How about these two periods of income?"
"Profit? Return the profit, and lose money! There were only a dozen people in the first section. Fortunately, it was almost full when I came back, otherwise I would lose more." Xu Cang sighed: "However, this is already better than expected, it's okay. But , I sincerely suggest that the supporting facilities at the airport should be improved, at least the bus time should be increased. Every two hours, the interval is too long."
Hu Ming thought for a moment: "You are right, if you want to develop supporting facilities, you have to keep up. However, your situation is really difficult."
Hu Ming didn't think that Xu Cang was trying to sell miserably, he read the previous records of Erhai Airport.There were also other airlines who came here before, but they all left without exception.
In addition to some factors other than operations, one of the reasons must be that the revenue of the route cannot make ends meet.
"I feel that you are different from the previous airlines." Hu Ming said earnestly: "If you are willing to take root in Erhai Lake, then we must give some help. In the future, as long as the occupancy rate exceeds [-]% Our government can help you reimburse the expenses, which should relieve some of your burden. Our finances are also tight, so we can't subsidize too much, I hope you can understand."
"Ah!?" Xu Cang almost jumped up. It was really a surprise that he actually earned government subsidies when he came to the city.
Seeing Xu Cang's excited appearance, Hu Ming also laughed: "I heard your accent is not from here, is it?"
Only then did Xu Cang notice that Hu Ming's accent was very similar to his own, so he tentatively asked, "I'm from Weiyang, Director Hu, are you?"
"Hahaha, I belong to Weiyang too, I didn't expect to meet a fellow villager here."
The so-called fellow villagers see fellow villagers, the two have tears in their eyes. With this relationship, Xu Cang is even more let go.
"Well, this is not a place to talk, I have something to do later. I'll leave you a phone number, and you can call me later when you have time. Regarding the government subsidy, you need to talk about it in person." Hu Ming thought for a while Next: "Better call your boss over."
With that said, Hu Ming and Nan Xixi asked for a note, wrote their personal number on it and handed it to Xu Cang: "Just call this number, as soon as possible!"
Xu Cang quickly put it away, this is a great help for them.
After talking to Xu Cang again, Hu Ming and Nan Xixi were busy with their own affairs.Xu Cang put away the note and asked the master to turn it back without stopping. He couldn't wait to tell Qin Xin the good news.
After a bumpy journey, Xu Cang finally returned to the small courtyard of the temporary base.When he got out of the car, he saw Mo Shangyun strolling in the yard after changing clothes.
Xu Cang in a good mood greeted Mo Shangyun: "Teacher, you still have the energy to take a walk after flying for two sections."
"It's not a big class." Mo Shangyun looked at the corners of Xu Cang's mouth, and said with a smile, "What kind of good thing is sending someone away? The mouth is grinning to the ear."
"Hahaha, it's a great thing. However, the matter has not been decided yet, and you will tell the teacher when you are done." Xu Cang said: "Teacher, then you go for a walk, I have something to go upstairs."
Xu Cang's smile became brighter when he thought of how happy Qin Xin was when he learned about the government subsidy.
But when Xu Cang was about to go upstairs, Mo Shangyun suddenly stopped Xu Cang from behind: "Xu Cang, I just realized something when I got off the plane today."
Xu Cang stopped his steps, turned his head and looked at Mo Shangyun: "Teacher, what's wrong?"
"Do you know the number of the plane we are flying?" Mo Shangyun asked delicately.
Xu Cang didn't fly a regular flight that day, he was either sleeping or on the way to sleep, how could he know the plane number.So, frowning: "Teacher, what's the machine number?"
Mo Shangyun had a strange face, and spit out a set of numbers: "1566!"
"What?" Xu Cang's face changed greatly: "1566, that plane!?"
Isn't this the plane that Xu Cang evaluated flying after he was reborn, and ended up flying so close to the tail of the plane?Later, Xu Cang thought there was something wrong with the plane and had a big fight with the management of Blue Sky Airlines. Why did Blue Sky Airlines give them the plane?
For some reason, Xu Cang felt strange in his heart: "There will be no problem, right?"
(End of this chapter)
Xu Cang's words seemed a little too threatening, but in fact the representative of Chengdu Airlines knew that if the Airbus 320 flight ban continued, Chengdu Airlines would be very dangerous.
The reason Chengdu Airlines is still able to hold on now is because the aircraft has not yet reached the time when it really needs to be maintained, and now it is basically just some daily maintenance.When the aircraft began to undergo major repairs one after another, the capital investment would suddenly increase, and there would be aircraft that would be leased one after another, and the lease renewal fee would be a large expenditure, enough to completely overwhelm Chengdu Airlines.
The timing of the Airbus 320's flight ban this time was too bad, just when a large number of aircraft D-checks and leases expired.Therefore, in another quarter at most, the company's expenses can consume all the profits of the past few years.
When there is no funds, it will be scraping the company's bones and blood to support it.
Nowadays, the investigation progress of Airbus 320 is completely hopeless, and Rongcheng Airlines really can't wait any longer.
"Xu Cang, the choice you gave us is really terrible." The representative of Rongcheng Airlines sighed.
Xu Cang's face was indifferent: "I have no grievances or enmity with you, if you want to blame you, you have to blame Wang Baotian. I have already been very polite to you, if you still want to protect Wang Baotian, believe it or not, I will put you all together." The company provided it."
It is not so difficult to deal with an airline like Chengdu Airlines that has tied its entire family and life to Airbus and has no background.
At least if Xu Cang changes the conditions with Airbus from the Jinmen General Assembly Plant to the rectification of Rongcheng Airlines, Airbus will definitely be happy. The 9451 incident did bring Xu Cang a very strong bargaining chip.Moreover, Xu Cang knew in his heart that 9451 was indeed a problem with the plane itself. He dared to make deals with so many parties not because of fooling around, but because he really held an important bargaining chip.
However, unless it was absolutely necessary, Xu Cang didn't want to unite with outsiders to squeeze "his own people".
The representative of Chengdu Airlines immediately thought of certain possibilities, and his face turned pale.Ma Cheng next to him became a little impatient: "Mother-in-law, can you be a little more decisive?"
"Xu Cang, if I agree, how soon will this matter settle down?" asked the representative of Rongcheng Airlines.
Xu Cang said: "How can I know the specific time, the key is to see when Airbus will figure it out. However, it will come soon."
According to the intelligence capabilities of CFM Corporation, by now no matter what, he should know that IAE Corporation is looking for him alone.If CFM's reaction speed is normal, it is estimated that it has already begun to communicate with Airbus.
The representative of Rongcheng Airlines did not hesitate after hearing this: "Okay, let's do this! I will collect materials when I go back, and apply to the bureau to revoke Wang Baotian's title of meritorious pilot. Please keep your promise."
Xu Cang breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the representative of Rongcheng Airlines had finally given in.Although he said that he must avenge his revenge, he did not implicate other people.If the representative of Rongcheng Airlines persisted and wanted Xu Cang to take care of Rongcheng Airlines together, Xu Cang might not be able to do it.
After all, there are too many ordinary employees in Chengdu Airlines.Pilots don't care, they can eat anywhere with their skills, and it's a good meal.But those ordinary employees, especially the ground administrative staff, once they lose their jobs, they will have to start all over again, and it is not certain whether they can start all over again.
However, Xu Cang still felt very lucky that he hadn't developed to that stage.
"Don't worry, my reputation has always been very good, right, Mr. Ma?"
Ma Cheng rolled his eyes and said nothing.However, although he said he was unhappy with Xu Cang, what Xu Cang said just now did have some truth, at least when Xu Cang helped settle Boeing's production capacity quota, he did it neatly.
The representative of Rongcheng Airlines was obviously not in a good mood. He hummed and walked out without saying hello.Seeing that the matter was over, Ma Cheng was also ready to leave.
As a result, just as Ma Cheng was about to leave, Xu Cang grabbed Ma Cheng and approached him with a smile: "Mr. Ma, why are you in a hurry to leave?"
Ma Cheng shook off Xu Cang's grasping in disgust, and asked vigilantly, "Can you stop laughing at me, I always feel like you're thinking about some bad idea again!"
"No, no, I'm very kind-hearted, so why would I have any bad ideas?" Xu Cang's face was thick, and he approached a little bit: "I said Mr. Ma, for a company as big as Muhua Airlines, it's too redundant There should be a lot of other people, right?"
Ma Cheng frowned suddenly: "What are your plans, kid?"
Xu Cang finally showed a look of embarrassment: "Since there are so many people, how about some of us?"
After all, in a giant company like Muhua Airlines, there are people who don't mind the environmental conditions and only want to make money.Although it is still possible to borrow some resources from Blue Sky Airlines, Ma Cheng has agreed to sell the airline company quota, so the recruitment of other personnel should be on the agenda.
"Is it so well-balanced? Isn't this just poaching?" Ma Cheng was convinced, and Xu Cang was really courageous in front of himself, a high-level person of Muhua Airlines.
"How can this be called poaching? It's so ugly. It should be called the rational distribution of human resources!" Xu Cang said with a playful smile, "I'll pass on our company's recruitment information to you later, and you can promote it at Muhua Airlines. "
The veins on Ma Cheng's forehead popped up, and he almost laughed angrily: "You asked me to promote your company's recruitment information in our company, Xu Cang, are you okay!"
"To be honest, Xu Cang, you really want to start an airline company here. I admit that your flying skills are very good, but operating an airline company is not the same thing as flying."
Xu Cang said with a smile: "You are not afraid that we will develop into Muhua's competitors, are you? Don't worry, we are in the low-end market, and we have no competitive relationship."
"Low-end market?" Ma Cheng was taken aback, and a little curious: "How low is it?"
"Guess how much is the ticket from Erhai Lake to Yangcheng?"
Ma Cheng smacked his lips, thought for a moment, and said a number: "One thousand and five?"
"Taller!"
"One thousand and two?"
"It's still too high!"
"No!" Ma Cheng was speechless: "You shouldn't sell it for one thousand, it's too low."
Xu Cang shook his head: "It's not a thousand."
Ma Cheng breathed a sigh of relief: "Let me just say, what is there to sell for a 1000 yuan air ticket?"
But Xu Cang smiled slightly: "It's not one thousand, it's five hundred! The ticket from Erhai to Yangcheng is five hundred!"
"Five hundred, what are you kidding?" Ma Cheng's face changed suddenly: "Five hundred is a ticket, why do you still sell air tickets, forget about driving a bus! Xu Cang, airplanes are a high-end way of travel. Change the brand from high-end It is easy to make a low-end product, but it is very difficult to make it from a low-end product to a high-end product, so don’t lose too much because of small things.”
Xu Cang didn't think there was anything wrong with him: "Anyway, I'm targeting the low-end market, and I don't want to go back to high-end."
"Children can't be taught." Ma Cheng waved his hand, said nothing more, stepped out of the house, and followed the representatives of Rongcheng Airlines to the courtyard.
Xu Cang smiled and shouted towards Ma Cheng's back: "I said Mr. Ma, I will send the recruitment information to your mobile phone later, you have to remember what I said."
As a result, Ma Cheng didn't reply at all, until his back was hidden in the shadows, and he was never seen again.
"Tsk tsk tsk, you have a big temper." Xu Cang muttered.
After talking with Ma Cheng, Xu Cang went upstairs again, only to find that Tan Heling had also come over, and even Qin Xin had come inside.
Xu Cang was a little strange and asked Qin Xin, "What are you doing here?"
Qin Xin pulled Xu Cang to the door, and said in a low voice, "The ticketing information from the group has come back."
Their base sells tickets not through Blue Sky Airlines, but through spring and summer tourism.Therefore, Xu Cang and the others could not know how the air tickets were selling in a timely manner.
"How to say?" Xu Cang's eyes widened immediately. This is the maiden voyage, and it must be a good start.
"A total of eleven tickets were sold for the flight from Erhai Lake to Yangcheng," Qin Xin said.
"There are no foreign tourists in Erhai Lake now. It doesn't matter the part of the trip, the key is the part of the way back." Xu Cang was not discouraged by the dismal ticket sales for the outbound trip. What he really needed to see was the part from Yangcheng to Erhai Lake.
A smile suddenly appeared on Qin Xin's serious face: "It's all sold out! A friend from my group told me that it was almost sold out within two hours after it was released. Xu Cang, it's true that cheap tickets are easy to sell."
Xu Cang's air ticket price this time is no longer low, but super low.The price cut was more than a half discount, so it's no wonder that Ma Cheng listened and said that it would be better for Xu Cang to drive a bus.
"Okay, okay!" Xu Cang was also very excited. As long as there are more tourists waiting for the Erhai Lake, there will be more and more people in the Erhai Feiyang City section, thus forming a virtuous circle.
Xu Cang thought for a while: "Have you calculated the income and expenditure of these two paragraphs?"
Qin Xin's smile restrained a little: "After a rough calculation, I lost a little bit. However, I already feel very good, after all, it's just the beginning."
This part of the outbound journey is basically empty planes. Even if the return journey is full, and the air ticket price is too low, the profit will definitely be negative.Qin Xin was mentally prepared, so her reaction to flying a flight at a loss was not great, and she even said that it was much better than she expected.
Xu Cang patted Qin Xin on the shoulder: "Everything is difficult at the beginning, but it will definitely get better later on. I also think that this beginning is already very good, and I was prepared to miss the plane twice at the beginning. "
Qin Xin nodded heavily. The ticketing on the first day definitely gave her great confidence.
"Okay, you go to rest, and you deliberately got up early to tell me this?"
"I can't sleep. I haven't felt sleepy since last night. I'll squint for a while to see if I can fall asleep." Although Qin Xin looked very energetic, her complexion was not very good. It was obvious that she had stayed up all night .
Xu Cang pushed Qin Xin: "Go now. You should be relieved if the tickets are sold like this, go!"
After seeing off the worried Qin Xin, Xu Cang returned to the preparation room.Seeing Xu Cang's return, Mo Shangyun threw the clearance documents to Tan Heling who was opposite, stood up, and waved to the crew: "Let's go, we're entering."
A loud cheer ensued, and the inaugural flight finally began.
Because it was too early, when Xu Cang and the others entered the arena, there was no light at all around. Even with the headlights on, the road could not be seen clearly, so that they drove for less than 5 minutes during the day. It took nearly 10 minutes early.
However, fortunately, Mo Shangyun deliberately moved ahead of time, so this little accident didn't have much impact.
When everyone arrived at the terminal building of Erhai Airport, there were only sparse lights inside.The airport has opened all the passages in advance. After entering the lobby, there is only one person at the check-in counter, and there is a passenger who is getting a boarding pass. Other than that, there is no one at all.
To be honest, this kind of atmosphere really follows the ghost town.
A group of people passed through the security check passage under the slightly curious eyes of the security check personnel, and saw their own boarding gate as soon as they passed.There is no way, Erhai Airport has only four bridge seats, and the waiting hall can be seen at a glance.Once inside, the only lit gate was their flight gate.
"It's too deserted." The purser was a little surprised.She had heard about the situation at Erhai Airport, but even so, after seeing the depression of the airport with her own eyes, she still felt incredible.
Taking root in this kind of airport, can it really grow a strong tree?
"It's okay, there will be more people in the future." Xu Cang's confidence increased greatly after hearing Qin Xin's ticket information just now.It is indeed very depressed here, but it also means that this place will be an extremely vast blue ocean.
Mo Shangyun, who was walking at the front, smiled gratifiedly when he heard Xu Cang's heartfelt words.The purser also laughed: "I hope it's the same as what you said."
So under the curious eyes of more than a dozen passengers at the boarding gate, Xu Cang and his party passed the boarding gate.Although the scene looked very deserted, there was none of the services that should be lacking.
The ground service personnel at the boarding gate, the refueling master, and the cleaning personnel were all arranged in time.And the maintenance crew is Xu Cang and his own people, who arrived earlier than the crew.
Although the maiden voyage is of great significance, there is no difference in the process.Xu Cang was purely for soy sauce this time. After refueling, the boarding gate just opened.
Since there were too few people in the first section, there were no more than 5 minutes, and all the people were there.
Although the time was a bit rushed, there were two pilots in the cockpit, Mo Shangyun and Tan Heling, who had the route certificates, and the preparation speed was quite fast. Everything was done at the same time as the hatch was closed, and there was no delay at all.
Xu Cang began to sleep from the moment the plane was pushed out, and did not wake up until the landing gear was lowered on approach to Yangcheng.Then after the plane lands, repeat the above process.
At the middle point of the voyage back, Xu Cang woke up with a sore neck.
When Mo Shangyun heard the movement behind him, he turned around with a half-smile and asked, "How do you feel?"
Xu Cang rubbed his neck: "It has always been difficult for the observer to sit, especially when sleeping."
"That's really wronging you." Mo Shangyun didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I think you don't want to take the seat behind you, I'm afraid you're sleepy."
The facial features on Xu Cang's face were crowded together: "My mind is clear, but it seems that I have a stiff neck, and my neck is uncomfortable. Forget it, after I don't fly, let's talk about obtaining qualifications later."
At this time, Tan Heling interjected: "Xu Cang, why don't you sit in the back, the observer's chair is really uncomfortable."
The observer's chair is foldable and can be stowed away, which is convenient and does not take up much space.However, this structure is destined to be completely sacrificed in terms of comfort.
Basically, the observer's seat is a structure similar to a chair formed by wrapping some simple materials on an iron frame.Sitting on it for a long time will make the waist and buttocks very uncomfortable.
Since Xu Cang didn't plan to take the seat, he could go to the back and sit, at worst, he would come in after approaching.
Xu Cang wiped his face, it seemed that he still didn't get enough sleep.Mo Shangyun was really speechless: "I said Xu Cang, you kid, did you stay up all night last night, can you be so sleepy?"
"Um, almost." Xu Cang unfastened his seat belt and stood up, putting away the chair: "I don't know why, maybe I'm too excited, I can't fall asleep anyway, at most I really slept for less than an hour."
"Forget it, forget it." When Mo Shangyun heard that Xu Cang fell asleep for less than an hour, he waved his hand in surprise, "Go to the back and squint, and remember to take off the epaulet tie."
Although all the tickets are sold, some seats will be reserved in the front row of the cabin for the crew.Xu Cang will definitely have an empty seat if he goes to the cabin later.
Xu Cang gestured: "Understood!"
Soon, Mo Shangyun informed the flight crew that Xu Cang was coming out via internal message.After making some preparations, Xu Cang, who had already taken off the epaulettes and tie, came out of the cockpit, handed the epaulettes and tie to the purser for safekeeping, and ran into the cabin by himself.
Sure enough, there were four empty seats in the front row.Xu Cang found one at random, sat on it, and felt that his soul was about to melt.Sitting on the broken chair of the observer for a long time, and then sitting on the chair in the cabin, it is really a fairy-like enjoyment.
Xu Cang put the back of the chair back, adjusted the angle of the back of the chair, and was ready to continue sleeping. He even brought earplugs for winding the plane.These earplugs are standard equipment for pilots, and most of them are used when flying around the plane on the tarmac.
Because sometimes when you go around the plane, you will encounter other planes carrying in. If the distance is closer, the movement will really shake your mind.It is for this reason that, for the purpose of protecting the pilot's hearing, the airline will issue earplugs to each pilot, and the quality is quite good.
Xu Cang was just about to plug in his earplugs, but he heard a middle-aged woman's voice from the side: "I just heard that Erhai Lake is very beautiful, but we don't know how to get here, where to go, you Would you like to tell us something?"
Where the flight attendant can answer this question, they can only apologize: "Sorry, I really can't answer this question. When you arrive at Erhai Airport, there should be travel information over there."
"Huh? This is too troublesome."
Flight attendant: "Sorry, this is really beyond my ability."
After finishing speaking, the flight attendant was about to go back to the front cabin work room, but when he turned his head, he bumped into Xu Cang who had turned his head, showing half of his head.She was startled, and blurted out: "Brother, what are you doing?"
However, Xu Cang did not answer her, but smiled at the middle-aged woman who asked the question before: "Auntie, let me tell you how to play in Erhai Lake."
About three to ten minutes later, the flight attendant came into the cockpit to get Mo Shangyun's empty water glass, and he had to heat the water for Mo Shangyun later.
When passing the cup, Mo Shangyun asked casually: "What is Xu Cang doing behind, sleeping?"
The flight attendant took Mo Shangyun's cup and smiled: "He's working as a tour guide!"
"Guiding what, tour guide?" Mo Shangyun was startled, not knowing why: "What do you mean by being a tour guide?"
"Literally." The purser did not leave in a hurry, but said: "Many passengers don't know how to play in Erhai Lake. As a result, Xu Cang has been talking about it for half an hour. It's not over."
"Ah?" Mo Shangyun was stunned: "He still understands this? He's not from Erhai, right?"
The purser shrugged: "If you are not a local, then you have really worked hard. Our co-pilot is really special. Instructor, is there anything else you need, a small towel, fruit?"
"No need, just fill up the water for me." Mo Shangyun waved his hand to signal the purser to go out.
When the purser left, Mo Shangyun listened quietly for a while, and could faintly hear Xu Cang's voice coming from behind.
"Really." Mo Shangyun really convinced Xu Cang that he could work part-time as a tour guide on the plane.
Tan Heling expressed his feelings: "Teacher, Xu Cang really took this matter as his own career."
Mo Shangyun can understand Xu Cang's thoughts, but it's just that it seems too aggressive.
Talking in the cabin for almost an hour, it was a parched Xu Cang who didn't sleep for a minute after all. Seeing that the plane was about to approach, he hurried back to the cockpit.
As soon as he entered the cockpit, Xu Cang, whose brain was hypoxic, felt drowsy. He didn't last for 2 minutes, and fell asleep again.He waited until the plane landed and turned off before being woken up by Mo Shangyun.
Wiping the drool from his mouth, Xu Cang was still a little dazed, and looked at the seat sign: "Ah, the car is closed now?"
"What else do you want, why don't you fly two flights and sleep for another two, is it so easy to sleep on the plane?" Mo Shangyun said helplessly.
"I didn't expect to be so sleepy. Oh, who cares, I'll get off work after flying." Although he didn't feel any sense of participation in the whole process, Xu Cang still had a natural liking for getting off work, and his mind suddenly came to his senses.
This is the so-called drowsiness when the engine sound sounds, and when the engine sound is turned off, I immediately feel refreshed, which is a true portrayal of a pilot.
After they finished disembarking, Xu Cang happily took the flight case placed on the luggage rack in the cabin, and quickly followed Mo Shangyun's footsteps.
In order to save money, they did not sign an agreement with the airport, so they could not exit from the airport apron, but could only leave from the terminal building like passengers.However, Erhai Airport is very small, even if you walk to the terminal building, it is a matter of a few more steps, which does not matter much.
The crew went all the way to the arrival gate, and saw that there were many passengers on the plane gathered at the bus station at the airport.Just as Xu Cang was about to get on the bus, he was stopped by a voice: "Young man, can you help us see how to get on this bus?"
Xu Cang took a closer look and saw that it was the passengers on their plane.So Xu Cang didn't get on the train for the time being, but walked over and explained: "Auntie, this bus runs every two hours, you probably have to wait."
"Two hours, how long will I have to wait?" The middle-aged woman said with embarrassment, "It would be very expensive to take a taxi to the city."
As soon as this remark came out, many tourists also complained.They all said that the traffic here is really bad, and some of them started to regret coming here.
Xu Cang scanned around here, and estimated that there were thirty or forty people, so he quickly shouted: "You are waiting here now, a car will come to pick you up soon."
The middle-aged woman said happily: "Didn't you say two hours? Why did you have another car?"
"I'll arrange it for you." Xu Cang shouted again: "At most fifteen minutes, just wait a moment."
After saying this, Xu Cang hurriedly turned his head and got on the crew car, and then the crew car sped away, leaving behind a group of passengers who didn't understand the situation.
Not long after, two people walked over from the arrival gate, one of them was thin and in his 40s, wearing a plaid shirt and a jacket, with his hands behind his back, in an old-fashioned way.
Behind him was a young man who was reporting to work at the moment: "Director, an airline company has recently settled in and opened a flight to Yangcheng."
"Just one? Are there other airlines willing to come in?" The middle-aged man asked, but his eyes were always on the bus stop where people gathered.
The young man looked a little embarrassed: "Well, no other airlines have proposed to us the idea of stationing here yet."
The middle-aged man sighed: "The conditions in Erhai Lake are still too bad. However, I think the group of people in front are all brought over by the route from Yangcheng? There are a lot of people! Let's go and have a look!"
This middle-aged man is Hu Ming, director of the Erhai City Poverty Alleviation Office.However, he is not a native of Erhai. He has just been transferred here and is still in the stage of understanding the situation.
Following him is his assistant Nancy Xi.
The two of them had just walked to the bus stop, and they were planning to ask the passengers, but they saw a brand new minibus and an old van driving over.Then, the door of the minibus opened, and a young man in a white shirt came down and shouted at the crowd gathered at the bus stop: "If you go to the city, get on the bus, and the van behind can also take people."
This young man is Xu Cang.That's right, he let the crew car that sent the crew back go back and forth, and even called the van with the grocery shopping.
The crowd waiting for the car saw that there was indeed a car, and started to get into the car one after another. It didn't take long for the seats to be almost full.When the people were almost there, Xu Cang looked around at the door of the car to confirm that there were no missing persons. He happened to see Hu Ming and Nan Xixi who hadn't figured out the situation yet.
"I said uncle, why are you still standing?" Xu Cang stuffed Hu Ming into the minibus, then glanced at Nan Xixi: "You are going to the city, get on the bus?"
"We." Nan Xixi had never seen such a battle before, but seeing that the leaders were already in the car, she bit the bullet and followed.
After confirming that there was really no one on the platform, Xu Cang got into the car, patted the driver and said, "Let's go!"
Under Xu Cang's instruction, the door was closed, the car started, and drove towards the city.
In the car, Xu Cang turned to a car and said: "When you arrive in the urban area, you can follow the route I told you on the plane. Of course, you can also have your own ideas, but it's best to ask the locals first. .”
The middle-aged woman just said with a smile: "Young man, I saw you wearing a pilot's uniform just now. When I was on the plane, I thought you were a flight attendant. I wonder why there are male flight attendants."
"Auntie, there are still male flight attendants, not many."
"Then how much is our car?" The middle-aged woman asked, "Please give us a ride."
Xu Cang quickly waved his hand: "I don't want money. If I ask for money, wouldn't this car become a black car?"
Hearing that no money was required, the atmosphere in the car became even more heated.
Hu Ming, who was sitting in the last row, looked at Xu Cang with great interest.From what the middle-aged woman said just now, this young man is still a pilot. Could it be that he is the crew of the Yangcheng flight?
It's just how can this crew do some tour guide work?
With growing curiosity, Hu Ming waited for a long time, and the car finally arrived at the urban area.
Xu Cang got out of the car first, and then took the trouble to show people the way, sending everyone away except Hu Ming and Nan Xixi.When Xu Cang said that smoke was coming out of his throat, he found Hu Ming was looking at him and scratching his head: "I said uncle, you were the slowest to get on the bus just now, why are you walking the slowest now. Doesn't it all go to the urban area?" Well, where are you going, if I know, I can give you some advice?"
At this time, Nan Xixi came out: "He is Director Hu Ming of the Municipal Poverty Alleviation Office, and we are not tourists."
"Ah? An official!" Xu Cang blushed suddenly, and he actually forced the leader of the Poverty Alleviation Office into the car.
However, Hu Ming signaled Nancy Xi not to speak, but kindly asked Xu Cang: "Sending these people here should not be the service scope of your airline?"
Xu Cang was also unconcerned: "Whose responsibility should we care about at this time? We are closely related to Erhai City. Only when Erhai City's tourism develops can we follow suit."
"Okay! Well said! We are all on the same boat. There is no division of responsibilities. The development of tourism in Erhai City is the common goal." Hu Ming came all the way to observe Xu Cang's words and deeds, and followed the car. The passengers asked about what they had seen on the plane, and when they heard that Xu Cang was promoting the tourist route of Erhai Lake on the plane, they immediately felt that Xu Cang was not simple.
After thinking for a while, Hu Ming asked, "How about these two periods of income?"
"Profit? Return the profit, and lose money! There were only a dozen people in the first section. Fortunately, it was almost full when I came back, otherwise I would lose more." Xu Cang sighed: "However, this is already better than expected, it's okay. But , I sincerely suggest that the supporting facilities at the airport should be improved, at least the bus time should be increased. Every two hours, the interval is too long."
Hu Ming thought for a moment: "You are right, if you want to develop supporting facilities, you have to keep up. However, your situation is really difficult."
Hu Ming didn't think that Xu Cang was trying to sell miserably, he read the previous records of Erhai Airport.There were also other airlines who came here before, but they all left without exception.
In addition to some factors other than operations, one of the reasons must be that the revenue of the route cannot make ends meet.
"I feel that you are different from the previous airlines." Hu Ming said earnestly: "If you are willing to take root in Erhai Lake, then we must give some help. In the future, as long as the occupancy rate exceeds [-]% Our government can help you reimburse the expenses, which should relieve some of your burden. Our finances are also tight, so we can't subsidize too much, I hope you can understand."
"Ah!?" Xu Cang almost jumped up. It was really a surprise that he actually earned government subsidies when he came to the city.
Seeing Xu Cang's excited appearance, Hu Ming also laughed: "I heard your accent is not from here, is it?"
Only then did Xu Cang notice that Hu Ming's accent was very similar to his own, so he tentatively asked, "I'm from Weiyang, Director Hu, are you?"
"Hahaha, I belong to Weiyang too, I didn't expect to meet a fellow villager here."
The so-called fellow villagers see fellow villagers, the two have tears in their eyes. With this relationship, Xu Cang is even more let go.
"Well, this is not a place to talk, I have something to do later. I'll leave you a phone number, and you can call me later when you have time. Regarding the government subsidy, you need to talk about it in person." Hu Ming thought for a while Next: "Better call your boss over."
With that said, Hu Ming and Nan Xixi asked for a note, wrote their personal number on it and handed it to Xu Cang: "Just call this number, as soon as possible!"
Xu Cang quickly put it away, this is a great help for them.
After talking to Xu Cang again, Hu Ming and Nan Xixi were busy with their own affairs.Xu Cang put away the note and asked the master to turn it back without stopping. He couldn't wait to tell Qin Xin the good news.
After a bumpy journey, Xu Cang finally returned to the small courtyard of the temporary base.When he got out of the car, he saw Mo Shangyun strolling in the yard after changing clothes.
Xu Cang in a good mood greeted Mo Shangyun: "Teacher, you still have the energy to take a walk after flying for two sections."
"It's not a big class." Mo Shangyun looked at the corners of Xu Cang's mouth, and said with a smile, "What kind of good thing is sending someone away? The mouth is grinning to the ear."
"Hahaha, it's a great thing. However, the matter has not been decided yet, and you will tell the teacher when you are done." Xu Cang said: "Teacher, then you go for a walk, I have something to go upstairs."
Xu Cang's smile became brighter when he thought of how happy Qin Xin was when he learned about the government subsidy.
But when Xu Cang was about to go upstairs, Mo Shangyun suddenly stopped Xu Cang from behind: "Xu Cang, I just realized something when I got off the plane today."
Xu Cang stopped his steps, turned his head and looked at Mo Shangyun: "Teacher, what's wrong?"
"Do you know the number of the plane we are flying?" Mo Shangyun asked delicately.
Xu Cang didn't fly a regular flight that day, he was either sleeping or on the way to sleep, how could he know the plane number.So, frowning: "Teacher, what's the machine number?"
Mo Shangyun had a strange face, and spit out a set of numbers: "1566!"
"What?" Xu Cang's face changed greatly: "1566, that plane!?"
Isn't this the plane that Xu Cang evaluated flying after he was reborn, and ended up flying so close to the tail of the plane?Later, Xu Cang thought there was something wrong with the plane and had a big fight with the management of Blue Sky Airlines. Why did Blue Sky Airlines give them the plane?
For some reason, Xu Cang felt strange in his heart: "There will be no problem, right?"
