Now the survival of the entire Swift Company relies on orders from Lejia Supermarket, so Zhu Xun has a bad attitude towards Lai Xiaohu. If Lai Xiaohu is angered, it may even threaten the company's survival. After receiving a call from Lai Xiaohu, Zhu Xun gave Lai Xiaohu some guidance on the phone. At first, Lai Xiaohu asked Zhu Xun on the phone if he could come to Jincheng in person, and even Lejia Supermarket could offer a high fee for guidance. But Zhu Xun refused without thinking. Although Zhu Xun cannot help Lai Xiaohu, it is impossible for him to go to Jincheng to help Lai Xiaohu in person. After all, the two people belong to two companies, and they are both the big bosses of the company. Zhu Xun also has his own company to manage, so being able to know as much as possible about Lai Xiaohu on the phone is already the most benevolent thing. Since Zhu Xun is not willing to come, Lai Xiaohu won't force it. Let's see what Zhu Xun said on the phone first. If it works, forget it. If it still doesn't work, Lai Xiaohu will go back to Shangdu to find Zhu Xun in person. It¡¯s okay to take a trip. Lai Xiaohu can still keep a low profile when asking for help. Zhu Xun basically told Lai Xiaohu about his experience of setting up Xunjie Company and developing it step by step until now. Then Zhu Xun specifically emphasized several key points based on the actual situation of Lejia Supermarket. . After the two people hung up the phone, Lai Xiaohu summarized Zhu Xun's words, which can basically be divided into three parts: the first step is to have a detailed and complete plan, and the second step is to start negotiating with the airline to ensure the goods. timely delivery, especially the time and place of delivery. The third step is of course to put it into use. Overall, Zhu Xun told Lai Xiaohu that if he wants to set up his own aviation logistics company, he only needs to do these three things. And these are what he said based on the situation of Lejia Supermarket. For example, when Zhu Xun first set up the company, he never considered aviation logistics. At that time, Xunjie Company was a small company. The only thing he considered was whether there were orders, and everything else was secondary. But after all, Lejia Supermarket is different from Xunjie Company. The aviation logistics company that Lai Xiaohu wants to set up does not have to worry about orders in the first place. Instead, it will be highly dependent on airlines from the beginning. In Zhu Xun's words, the more this happens, the more planning is needed. Naturally, the more detailed the planning content, the better. It includes not only how many vehicles are needed, how many employees to recruit, and how many branches or offices to establish in how many places across the country. What's more critical is to calculate the company's volume of goods shipped every day, and at the same time determine how many planes and airlines are needed to transport the goods based on the weight of the goods that need to be transported. The front is easy to talk about, but the key is the back. Planning things are relatively convenient. Because this step only needs to be completed within Lejia Supermarket itself, and there is no need to involve other companies. So Lai Xiaohu quickly found Zhang Ying, and then told her the content of the call between him and Zhu Xun just now, "In this way, you first make this plan with Brother Yang and He Li." "Well, no problem. ." Zhang Ying nodded. Then he left Lai Xiaohu's office. Lai Xiaohu can rest assured that Zhang Ying will be responsible for the previous planning. But he was not so relieved about the second step. The key second step is to negotiate with the airlines. The goods transported by Lejia Supermarket every day are relatively large and distributed over a wide area. This is no longer something that a single airline can handle, so Lai Xiaohu needs to negotiate with several airlines to let them take over Lejia Supermarket. Cargo transportation in supermarket. This link is relatively difficult to operate. The time and frequency of flights to each place are determined by each airline every day, and Lejia Supermarket itself has strict requirements for the transportation of goods. The goods must be delivered to cities with branches between 3 pm and 12 pm. Both sides have their own time and geographical requirements. It would be much more convenient if the two sides overlap. If there is a big difference between the two sides, then coordination is needed, or another airline can be found to fill the gap in the middle. Zhu Xun gave Lai Xiaohu the contact information of the persons in charge of this aspect of the airlines that cooperated with Xunjie Company. There are eight of these airlines in total. In order to achieve nationwide transportation capabilities, Zhu Xun must cooperate with enough airlines. And these companies have relatively large airlines. There are also some smaller airlines. With the phone number provided by Zhu Xun, Lai Xiaohu no longer has to wander around like a blindfolded fly not knowing who to call. But the only bad thing is that Lai Xiaohu may really have to make a trip to Shangdu City, because the contact information provided by Zhu Xun are all local to Shangdu City. It happens that the vegetables of Lejia Supermarket are also transported from Shangcheng City, so it would be more convenient to directly negotiate with those airlines for their distribution in Shangcheng City.Connect. After handing over other matters to Zhang Ying, Lai Xiaohu got on track with the new store. There were no particularly urgent matters in the company that needed to be handled by himself, so after taking another day off that day, he flew back to the store early the next morning. city. "Boss Lai, you really should buy a private jet." At the airport, Zhu Xun said after seeing Lai Xiaohu coming out of it, "A busy man like Boss Lai is running around all day. It's actually quite easy to fly. It¡¯s troublesome, it¡¯s better to buy your own plane. You can go wherever you want, anytime, and your own plane is more convenient and comfortable.¡± Zhu Xun received Lai Xiaohu¡¯s call before Lai Xiaohu came back. Now that he is coming back, Lai Xiaohu naturally wants to talk about it in advance. He not only called He Li, but also Zhu Xun. This time Lai Xiaohu came back to find those airlines, but before that he had to find Zhu Xun first. On the one hand, he expressed his gratitude to Zhu Xun for his help this time, but on the other hand, Lai Xiaohu thought that since he was back, why not ask Zhu Xun for advice. Lai Xiaohu told Zhu Xun on the phone that he was going to see him today and expressed his gratitude for his help this time. Zhu Xun thought that it would be better for me to come to you than to come to me. Zhu Xun happened to live not far from the airport, so he came directly. After greeting Heli and Zhu Xun respectively, Lai Xiaohu got into Zhu Xun's car, while Heli also drove behind. on the car. Lai Xiaohu thought about what Zhu Xun said just now about buying a private jet. In the past, Lai Xiaohu also joked about buying a private jet, but at that time, Lai Xiaohu was just joking, and a joke was just a joke. Lai Xiaohu didn't take it seriously, because at that time, Lai Xiaohu really couldn't do it. In the past, Lejia Supermarket only had stores in Jincheng. Lai Xiaohu didn't have to go anywhere else to work except Jincheng, and even when he went home, he only went back once a year. Therefore, when he was either going to Los Angeles in the United States or staying in Jincheng, he did not buy a private jet at all. But things are different now. This time, as Lejia Supermarket¡¯s business has spread to more than 20 provinces, cities and regions across the country, Lai Xiaohu¡¯s visits to various parts of the country will gradually increase in the future. This time Lai Xiaohu didn¡¯t go to a large number of new store openings and preparations, but he can¡¯t help but go in the future. After all, they are all their own branches, and Lai Xiaohu can't always control them remotely. From time to time, I need to go to a place to have a detailed look. Not to mention running every day, at least Lai Xiaohu has to visit a major district once a year. Lai Xiaohu plans to inspect all branches once a year in the future, either in the first half of the year or the second half of the year. Anyway, this inspection will be done in the future Become a norm. Some regions or some cities may have to go two or three times or more. In addition to inspections, if something important happens somewhere, Lai Xiaohu has to rush there as soon as possible. It¡¯s really inconvenient to fly to other places if you travel a lot. Because flights are not always so coincidental, Lai Xiaohu may have to waste a lot of time trying to catch the flight. It would be different if there was a private jet at this time. With him, Lai Xiaohu could leave at will, no matter when the flight would take off. Especially now, Lejia Supermarket has branches in dozens of cities. Some of these cities have airports, while some do not. You can¡¯t even make a flight without an airport. But it's different with private jets, although most private jets can't land without an airport. However, if you buy a small private plane or helicopter, you can land even if there is no airport. In the future, it will be more convenient for Lai Xiaohu to go to places without airports. Moreover, with the private jet, other people in the company besides Lai Xiaohu can also use it when going out. In this way, there is no need to worry about the waste caused by the aircraft being idle when Lai Xiaohu is not using it. Think about it, celebrities such as Ren Chenggong, Uncle Benshan, Jay Chou, and International Zhang all fly around in private jets all day long, and Lai Xiaohu has a private jet, which is nothing, not to mention Lai Xiaohu¡¯s wealth. , buying any kind of airplane is easy. As for the series of procedures required after buying the airplane, that is not a problem at all in Lai Xiaohu's opinion. With our relationship, it is easy to go through these procedures. Even from the private jet, Lai Xiaohu slowly thought about the company's affairs. Since you can buy a private jet, why can't your company buy a specialized cargo plane? Think about it if your company has a plane dedicated to transporting cargo, then you don¡¯t have to worry about those airlines at all. You have the final say when you want to transport cargo and how much you want to transport. Thinking of these, Lai Xiaohu was a little excited, and he even specifically mentioned these things and planned to discuss them with Zhu Xun. Of course Zhu Xun supports Lai Xiaohu's purchase of a private jet. Wasn't it him who told Lai Xiaohu to have this idea? But I heard LaiZhu Xun was shocked when Zhu Xun said that he actually wanted to buy the goods. ?Buying an airplane? This is not buying a car. A luxury car usually only costs a few million, but an airplane can easily cost tens of millions, and it's still settled in U.S. dollars. The average price of those smaller private jets is tens of millions, and the better ones are even tens of millions. And not to mention those real airplanes, they are even more expensive. That is simply not something that ordinary companies can afford. "Are you kidding?" Zhu Xun's driver was driving in front of him, and he was sitting next to Lai Xiaohu, looking at Lai Xiaohu in disbelief, "Do you know how much the cheaper all-cargo planes cost nowadays? "Ten million?" Lai Xiaohu asked. "It's tens of millions, yes, but it's just tens of millions of U.S. dollars. If converted into RMB, it's worth hundreds of millions. And planes worth tens of millions are generally relatively ordinary or even inferior in performance. Most of the better ones cost hundreds of millions." "US dollars." "So high?" Lai Xiaohu was a little surprised when he heard this. He had some knowledge about cars, but he had no knowledge about airplanes, and he didn't expect how expensive airplanes were. At tens of millions of dollars, this price is indeed a bit too high. However, the price of tens of millions of dollars is not something that Lai Xiaohu cannot afford, so he can buy it even if he grits his teeth. But what Zhu Xun said next made Lai Xiaohu completely lose his temper. I saw Zhu Xun continue to analyze: "Let's not talk about the price of the airplane. Do you know how many airplanes you need to buy to meet the normal daily needs of all your Lejia Supermarket branches?" Lai Xiaohu shook his head and said he didn't know. . He didn't even know how much cargo an average plane carried nowadays. It definitely can¡¯t be calculated. But Zhu Xun was very clear, "You should know how many tons of vegetables a single store of your Lejia Supermarket needs to sell in a day. I have made a rough estimate. Based on the information you provided, I think that under the situation of market saturation, a single The store sells about one hundred tons of vegetables every day. Do you know what this means? This means that a single cargo aircraft may only be enough for one branch to consume for a day, and the size of the aircraft cannot be small. "It must be a cargo plane with a large carrying capacity. As far as I know, the price of those cargo planes is generally more than 100 million US dollars." In terms of loading, takeoff, and unloading time, it takes about three hours for a plane to complete one shipment. In this case, each plane may only be able to maintain the normal consumption of two to three stores every day. " "This means nothing. Did I say more?" Zhu Xun stopped here and then looked at Lai Xiaohu. "No need." Lai Xiaohu sighed helplessly. I still think too simplistically and it¡¯s not very realistic. According to what Zhu Xun said, the aircraft Lai Xiaohu needs to purchase may be a huge number. Lejia Supermarket now has 116 branches. In addition, there are 17 old stores, adding up to a company of 133 stores. Based on the actual situation of Lejia Supermarket, Lai Xiaohu believes that two branches may need to be equipped with a dedicated cargo plane. That would mean that Lai Xiaohu would need to purchase sixty-seven aircraft. Aircraft with a transport capacity of more than 100 tons are generally sold for more than 100 million U.S. dollars. If Lai Xiaohu really wants to buy the aircraft himself, the funds for purchasing the aircraft alone may reach nearly 7 billion U.S. dollars. By then, There must be other expenses besides the plane, and the cost may be even higher. Even if there are new stores in the future, the number of aircraft will need to be increased. This is another big expense. He could accept Lai Xiaohu spending hundreds of millions, and even gritted his teeth and spent more than a billion or more than 2 billion. Lai Xiaohu accepted it, but the expenditure of nearly 7 billion US dollars and more than 40 billion yuan was really not what Lai Xiaohu wanted now. Xiaohu can afford it. Even if he could make a lot of money every year, he couldn't afford such a large opening. It can even be said that even if Lai Xiaohu had it, he might not be willing to spend the money. "So, brother, just look for those airlines honestly." Zhu Xun patted Lai Xiaohu's arm and said, "Those airlines have countless planes combined, and you only need to pay a small expense. You can ask them to help you transport the goods. Although it may not be as convenient as transporting it yourself, it is cheaper and more affordable." After Zhu Xun's persuasion. Lai Xiaohu bluntly gave up his unrealistic fantasy, "Yeah, let's just look for those airlines honestly." Lai Xiaohu didn't rush to find those airlines, but took He Lixian and Zhu Xun on We had a meal together. During the meal, Lai Xiaohu personally brought the wine to Zhu Xun and expressed his gratitude to him. "Brother Zhu is able to help our Lejia Supermarket this time. Here I only express my gratitude to Brother Zhu on behalf of our company.grateful. "After finishing speaking, Lai Xiaohu drank in one gulp. "And Zhu Xun also stood up quickly, "Where, where, I have to thank your company for being willing to entrust the order to our Xunji Company. I also drank this glass of wine." "After saying that, Zhu Xun, like Lai Xiaohu, finished the drink in one breath. After thanking him, the two chatted for a while, Lai Xiaohu slowly brought the topic to the airline. Before Although Zhu Xun also knew about Lai Xiaohu on the phone, it was always inconvenient to talk on the phone and many things were unclear. Now that the two were face to face, Lai Xiaohu was certainly not willing to give up this opportunity. With the creation of the atmosphere, Zhu Xun's favorable impression of Lai Xiaohu has also increased sharply. In addition, he drank a lot with Lai Xiaohu and became slightly drunk, so he did not hide anything when he spoke. It was almost Lai Xiaohu who asked Zhu Xun something. He told Lai Xiaohu without hesitation or concealment. Finally, when he left at around two o'clock in the afternoon, Zhu Xun was carried out of the hotel by his driver. At this time, Zhu Xun had already lost consciousness. , It is not that easy to drink with Lai Xiaohu, especially today, Lai Xiaohu deliberately got Zhu Xun drunk, so Zhu Xun's appearance at this time was really normal. Zhu Xun was being carried by his driver. Behind him, Lai Xiaohu was walking in front. At this time, Lai Xiaohu was also being supported by He Li and a hotel staff member as he walked slowly outside step by step. Even Lai Xiaohu didn't look much better than Zhu Xun. It's lying on someone else's body unconscious.
