Chapter 59

Looking at the smile on Liang Yuan's lips, Sun Zhuolin thought Liang Yuan had completely understood the meaning of McDonald's initiative to come to the door, and continued with a chuckle: "The so-called fighting between gods and demons is in trouble. In the early 1980s, Boeing and McDonald's struggle was in full swing, and they used various means to join forces in the global aviation industry. Even the republic that had been reopened for a short time would be almost unlucky. {3w."

"How do you say this?" Liang Yuan was naturally curious when he heard ancient gossips of companies like Boeing and McDonald.

"That would have happened to happen that the md82 passenger plane produced in the Republic applied for a Faa airworthiness license. As McDonald's old rival, Boeing naturally knew very well about McDonald's thoughts..." Sun Zhuolin worked in Boeing for many years and was free to learn about Boeing's inside story.

At that time, Boeing made a big rumor in the American public opinion that the cost reduction journey of McDonald's production line was completely failed. The radar fairings, passenger aircraft tailgate and other components built by the Wusong Factory of the Republic were thrown into the abandoned parts warehouse in Long Beach.

Since China cannot even make qualified parts, Boeing implies that the md82 passenger plane submitted for review is originally from the United States, and McDonald colluded with China to commit fraud for stock market interests.

After all, once McDonald's cost reduction plan shows up, it will definitely be huge positive news for McDonald's stock at that time. Maybe McDonald's turnaround will not be known.

"Boeing failed to cooperate with the Republic of Westward Aircraft, and of course he didn't want McDonald to leverage the Chinese market. As long as the products produced in China cannot pass the Faa certification, McDonald's ten-year plan will naturally be lost. In order to attack McDonald, Boeing used its own influence to reset the card in Faa's airworthiness certification. In the end, it was Yue Kunbo, who was then the president of McDonald's China region, who took the lead through senior White House advisers to President Reagan. The Chinese-made md82 was able to successfully pass the Faa's airworthiness certification."

"Young Master, this time McDonald took the initiative to contact us. The representative of McDonald who came to the door was Yue Kunbo."

Before Liang Yuan could answer, Liang Haiping suddenly asked, "Mr. Sun, can you see if this Yue Kunbo can dig up COMAC?"

"Haiping's eyes are really sharp. Yue Kunbo has been working in Asia since the 1970s. Not to mention that he knows all the airlines operating in Asia, McDonald's cooperation projects in the Republic were also facilitated by this person. If he can really persuade him to work at COMAC, it will be our great help both at home and abroad." Sun Zhuolin nodded and said.

"The young master should know that although the domestic reform and opening up has been nearly ten years, many areas are still under the influence of years of Cold War. There are still many obstacles in external contacts, especially for high-end large-scale international cooperation projects such as passenger planes. If the cooperation between McDonald and the Republic was not coordinated with Yue Kunbo in the midterm, it is still possible to develop to this point."

"I heard Lao Sun say this, this person is still nostalgic. As long as the hoe is good, this corner of the wall is worth digging." Liang Yuan said with a smile.

In the 1980s, most overseas Chinese could be divided into two categories: neutrality, hatred, and truly kind attitude. They went back to build the new China decades ago, and even if they missed the cause and condition at that time, they were only a minority.

Although Yue Kunbo's actions were based on McDonald's position, they were already very outstanding among the overseas Chinese group at that time. In later generations, even the words of Li and others could be considered patriotism, and Yue Kunbo could be called an example.

"McDow should have some ideas about MbB. CMB Aerospace can now be called a Federal German company. With us as a buffer in the middle, McDow can openly make a proposal similar to the one from that time. As long as it can seduce the Germans successfully, there is no need to consider Britain and France to disrupt the situation." Liang Yuan said in contemplation.

"Cmb Aerospace has invested 600 million US dollars, and Mbb has invested 600 million US dollars. The Federal German government has a loan of at least 600 million. At present, Mbb and British Short have a hot talk. Once Mbb successfully acquires Short, the British government will invest at least 600 million US dollars in Short Aerospace. In this way, the funds that Mbb can affect control in a short period of time can be at least more than 2.4 billion US dollars." Liang Yuan tapped the armrest of the sofa beside him with his finger.

"If we squeeze Britain and Germany, it will not be difficult to raise 3 billion US dollars. At present, there are not many rich people in the global aviation industry who can give out such a sum at any time. No wonder Lao Zhou said that we are Maddao's life-saving straw."

"Young Master really understands it at a little bit." Zhou Yuanhang stretched out his thumb and shook it.

"A few days ago, in the article in International Aviation Industry, McDonald's newly developed MD11 three-engine wide-body passenger aircraft has been in trouble after its first flight. Although it will not affect the delivery date, it is not optimistic about the fuel consumption of 1,000 kilometers per seat released by McDonald. Boeing is promoting the reform of the terms of the Etops so that large passenger aircraft with dual-engine structures can be qualified to fly across the ocean."

"Although McDonald's efforts to stop this matter, with the advancement of aircraft engine technology and the reform of the terms of major airlines fueling Etops will be passed by next year. This will be extremely bad news for md11..." Seeing Liang Haiping still a little confused, Zhou Yuanhang carefully explained McDonald's real intention of visiting.

etops is the full name of twin-engine aircraft to extend the range of the aircraft, which refers to the flight of any point on the aircraft's operating route to a suitable reserve airport that has a distance of more than 60 minutes or more than 180 minutes.

When determining the route, assuming that the aircraft safely flies at the cruise speed of an engine under standard conditions for 60 minutes, it means that the aircraft has passed the verification of Etops60. In other words, on the route of this type of aircraft, the flight distance from the nearest airport cannot exceed 60 minutes at any point.

When flying, the stronger the etops ability, it means that the more routes the aircraft can adapt to. After all, due to geographical conditions, there are very few airports where aircraft can be used for landing in the airfield during cross-air flights.

In foreign countries, etops are also nicknamed "enginesturnpas color gersswim" by the aviation industry, that is, the engine must rotate, otherwise passengers must swim.

The purpose of establishing the etops clause is to protect the safety of air passengers. Before the great development of aircraft engine technology, most of the four-engine passenger aircraft were carried out across the ocean. In addition to the reason for the limited thrust of aircraft engines at that time, the advantages of multiple aircraft in safe backup were also an important factor.
