Rebirth of the World’s Richest Man

 Chapter 3891 “Pick”

From the beginning of its establishment, China Airlines has been compared with foreign low-cost airlines. In 1971, Citigroup Southwest Airlines was established in Texas, which heralded the low-cost era of air travel and also made this airline a success. Become the originator of low-cost airlines in the world's civil aviation industry.

 After that, a number of low-cost airlines such as Ryanair and EasyJet were established in Ouzhou, marking the "flowering and fruition" of low-cost airlines in Ouzhou.

In 2001, Yazhou Airlines, the first low-cost airline in Yazhou, was established in Malaysia. At this time, low-cost airlines began to "take root" in the Asia-Pacific region.

 As for China, it is Qianqiu Airlines, which is the first one.

 Many people in the future may have taken a flight with Qianqiu Airlines. The first feeling may be that it is crowded, because the seat pitch of Qianqiu Airlines is on average 28 inches smaller than that of other airlines.

 There are also stricter restrictions on the weight and volume of luggage that passengers can carry for free than other airlines, and they have simplified air tickets and boarding passes. Finally, there are water, drinks and meals on the plane.

As for other airlines, water, drinks, meals, etc. are all provided for free, but Qianqiu Airlines is different. At the beginning, they also provided free bottled water for a while, but now chatting with Jiang Xiaobai in.

Wang Hua is already planning to cancel the free bottled water.

"Director Jiang, this free bottled water is also an expense. As you know, our Qianqiu Airlines has taken a low-cost route from the beginning. This is a flight with our airline. I was trying to take advantage, but many people still got some free bottled water.

If this expense is reduced, then our profits can increase a lot..."

Wang Hua became more and more excited as he talked, especially after the food and drinks were served. While drinking wine, he chatted with Jiang Xiaobai about his vision for the future of Qianqi Airlines. He became even more excited.

"Dr. Jiang, I have another idea, which is to introduce standing tickets. Think about it. On this train, there are tickets without seats. Then we can also do it on the plane. We can shorten the distance between the front and rear rows by modifying the seats. , to increase the passenger capacity by about 40%. In this case, our profits will be greatly improved...

 I did some preliminary calculations, if this can be successful. Our profits can probably increase by about 30%..."

Hearing Wang Hua's words, Jiang Xiaobai didn't know what to say. He knew that Wang Hua had made the same efforts in his previous life.

 It’s just that the airport ticket thing is a bit weird, mainly because the plane is very bumpy. This is different from the train. The operation of the train is not as bumpy as the plane.

 The lack of seats is not too serious, but it is different on an airplane. If you encounter turbulence or the like, can you stand still on the airplane?

"Mr. Wang, on this issue, you mainly have to consider safety. You also know that planes are different from trains. Trains run on the ground, while planes fly in the sky. How about setting up a station on the plane? There is no precedent in the world for voting. You..." Jiang Xiaobai really wanted to persuade Wang Hua.

 Don’t do this kind of useless work. For the sake of profit, you really dare to think about it and get a standing ticket on the plane.     Go up first and see if you can stand still.

Wang Hua nodded: "This is a problem. The security issue cannot be ignored."

Jiang Xiaobai listened to Wang Hua and agreed on the surface, but judging from the look in his eyes, he probably still didn't give up and wanted to give it a try. However, Jiang Xiaobai didn't say much. This issue is controlled by the higher-ups, isn't it? He said that Wang Hua could do it if he wanted to.

Wang Hua's mood was not affected at all by Jiang Xiaobai's rejection of the standing vote proposal. If Jiang Xiaobai agreed, Jiang Xiaobai might be able to use his connections to help him move around, but now Jiang Xiaobai just doesn't care. I know many civil aviation leaders, and I can also participate in activities.

Wang Hua continued to talk about his plan: "Director Jiang, I want to add a product promotion event on the plane in the future. Think about it, when we take the train, there are always flight attendants pushing trolleys. , selling peanuts, melon seeds, mineral water..."

Jiang Xiaobai widened his eyes and asked, "You also want to sell peanuts, melon seeds, and mineral water on the plane?"

Wang Hua shook his head: "If you don't have that, how much can peanuts, melon seeds, and mineral water be sold for? I want to sell some souvenirs, such as some airplane model toys.

This is the first time for many of us to fly by plane, and some may even fly once in their lives. Wouldn’t it be good to spend some money to buy some souvenirs?

I have already thought of a name for this product promotion event. It is called Sky Mall... Mr. Jiang, what do you think? "

Jiang Xiaobai smiled helplessly, you have already thought of your name, how can I feel about it.

"Okay, as long as it doesn't involve safety issues, you can try it." Jiang Xiaobai had a headache. In fact, what he wanted to say was that you don't need to recruit any crew members. Just go and recruit a train crew member. Okay, let’s directly compete with the trains. These employees still have experience and a little training will be enough.

“Dr. Jiang, I have seriously considered it. We, Kaiqiu Airlines, want to develop. Kaiqiu International Travel Service is our foundation. This is the reason why we can develop.

  But if we want to develop well, we need to learn from the operating models of low-cost airlines such as Southwest Airlines and Ryanair, through the two highs - high passenger load factor and high aircraft utilization rate;

 Two orders - a single A320 aircraft model, a single economy class; two lows - an operating model of low sales expenses and low management expenses, significantly reducing operating costs..."

Wang Hua said seriously, and Jiang Xiaobai also stopped complaining about Wang Hua in his heart. Wang Hua was really picky, and he could be said to have achieved the ultimate in these things.

 But sometimes, it may be precisely because of these "cut" profits that Qianqiu Airlines can develop and many people can fly.

Although there are many points of complaint, as soon as the plane takes off, the plane becomes a green train in the sky, and the stewardess turns into a cabinet lady. In order to sell more seats, all the seats are right-angle seats that cannot be adjusted.

 After being upgraded to first class, you will be seated in the first row, with a curtain drawn and so on. However, it is undeniable that its affordable price really makes it affordable for everyone.
