Chapter 667 The three major businesses of Bombardier

"Bombardier Aerospace is a subsidiary of Bombardier. In terms of employee numbers, it is the fourth largest aircraft manufacturer in the world, second only to Boeing, McDonnell and Airbus."

"In terms of annual delivery, it is the fifth largest commercial aircraft manufacturer in the world, second only to Boeing, McDonald, Airbus and Samba Aircraft Industries."

In the restaurant, Zhao Guoyang calmly told the situation of "Bombardier Aerospace" he knew.

In the early 1990s, Boeing and McDonald's two major aircraft manufacturers, the United States, had not yet merged.

Coupled with the existence of "Airbus", a joint enterprise of several major industrial powers in Europe, Bombardier Aerospace's business volume in aerospace is indeed only behind these three giants.

After listening to Zhao Guoyang's story, Wang Jintao opened his voice: "Well, judging from this ranking, 'Bonbadie' is not as powerful as we imagined!"

After Wang Jintao finished speaking, Zhao Guoyang laughed: "Director Wang, you are wrong. Just referring to the aerospace business, 'Bombardier Aerospace' is naturally not a match for the three giants."

"However, unlike these three major companies, Bombardier is not just aerospace business. In fact, the annual profit generated by Bombardier Aerospace only accounts for about 30% of its total profit..."

Zhao Guoyang stretched out a finger and said, "Among Bombardier's three major businesses, aircraft design and manufacturing are only ranked second, and the first is the design and manufacturing of rail vehicles!"

Pei Chunming, who was sitting opposite Zhao Guoyang, couldn't help but ask: "So Researcher Zhao, what is the third largest business of Bombardier?"

Zhao Guoyang smiled slightly and explained: "This third largest business of 'Bombardier' ​​is the focus of our visit this time, which is the 'all-terrain vehicle' business!"

After hearing this, everyone finally realized it.

Indeed, although the banner this time the delegation used was the "North American Economic and Industrial Exchange Inspection Team".

But everyone here knows its main purpose, that is, for the upcoming "all-terrain vehicle" project in China.

As the first stop of the delegation, the "Bombardier Company" undoubtedly occupies a heavy weight in it.

Zhao Guoyang paused for a moment, and after everyone had figured it out, he continued to speak: "Back to the topic of aerospace industry, you may think that the 'Bombardier Aerospace Group' is only ranked fourth and fifth in the world, and it did not squeeze into the top three, but compared to us, it was a few streets away."

"In fact, after so many years of development, Bombardier Aerospace has become the world's largest regional aircraft manufacturer and the world's third largest civil aircraft manufacturer."

"It is the only manufacturer in the world that has complete R&D, design, manufacturing and sales capabilities in three different countries. Its marketing and production management have considerable flexibility and has always been praised by the world."

"Wow! Then there are at least three of the branches of Bombardier Aerospace, right?" Huo Xiufen couldn't help but speak and asked.

Zhao Guoyang smiled and nodded and said, "That's right, that's exactly what it is. In fact, the 'Bonbadi Aerospace Group' has a total of four aircraft manufacturing companies."

“In addition to Air Canada in St. Laurent, Quebec, where we are now based, there are also De Havelland in the town of Donswayo, Ontario, Canada, Gateslier Jets in Tuge, Arizona, America, and Short Brothers in Belfast, Northern Ireland.”

"Air Canada, Gateslier Jets, and Shorter Brothers have the ability to develop, design, and manufacture aircraft on their own..."

Zhao Guoyang's story made everyone feel amazed.

Before, everyone didn't know much about the "Bombardier Aerospace Group" and didn't take it seriously.

But now that Zhao Guoyang said this, everyone knows how serious their mistakes are.

Especially Li Haoping, the industrial counselor, shook his head repeatedly, and was very upset about his previous downsides on this company.

After sighing for a while, Kong Xianchao slowly spoke to Zhao Guoyang beside him: "Researcher Zhao, it seems that the first stop you chose this time was really the right choice. This 'Bombardier Company' is indeed worth a good trip and take a look!"

Zhao Guoyang nodded silently, not knowing what this Minister Kong meant.

Just when he was secretly confused, Kong Xianchao had already spoken.

"So, Researcher Zhao. In the afternoon, I will communicate with Montreal. I will accompany your delegation to go tomorrow. Do you think it's OK?"

Kong Xianchao’s minister came out in person, what’s wrong with this? It must be a good thing.

Originally, Zhao Guoyang was worried that he would not have enough face to meet the senior executives of the "Bombardier Company".

Now that Minister Kong is traveling with him, this worry will definitely not exist.

Thinking of this, Zhao Guoyang nodded repeatedly and said, "That's great, Minister Kong. If you are here, we don't have to call him in the city of Montreal, right?"

"Haha, this is natural!"

Xu Guangyuan laughed and said, "With Minister Kong's personal advance, our inspection team will follow behind to 'Fighting the Autumn Wind'."

"Hey, Director Xu's words are wrong!"

Kong Xianchao shook his head seriously and said, "I just play a recommendation role. I have to rely on our researcher Zhao to communicate with these leaders and technical personnel of the 'Bombardier Company'!"

Kong Xianchao's words were sincere and everyone could hear them.

Indeed, just this welcome luncheon made everyone's doubts about Zhao Guoyang, a young man, disappear.

This leader Zhao has professional insights that are far beyond ordinary people not only in terms of industrial technology, but also in many aspects such as humanities, geography, and economy.

It is a blessing for everyone to have such an amazing person as the head of the inspection team!

After the luncheon, Kong Xianchao invited the embassy service staff and took everyone to rest.

Zhao Guoyang did not refuse much, shook hands with Minister Kong and the three counselors and exchanged greetings for a few words, and then took the people from the inspection team to the hotel.

Although everyone has slept on the plane, the quality of sleep on the plane is definitely not comparable to that of usual. After arriving at the destination, it still takes some time to adjust it.

Because he was the leader of the inspection team, Zhao Guoyang's room was arranged at the innermost part of the stairs, and the largest one.

After entering the room and washing up, Zhao Guoyang thought about tomorrow's itinerary.

Originally, according to his original plan, the visit to this "Bombardier Company" should last for two days.

On this first day, we naturally met with the senior management of "Bombardier" and had a discussion, and both sides said some scenes. However, we also visited the other party's "all-terrain vehicle" production base.

As for the next day, Zhao Guoyang planned to visit the "Bombardier Aerospace Group" as his personal capacity.

The reason is very simple. Western countries have always had a technical blockade against China, especially in high-tech projects such as the "Aerospace Industry", people must be a little wary of an inspection team of their visiting nature.

As the leader of the inspection team, there is basically no possibility of visiting the production process of the "Bombardier Aerospace Group".

But it is not certain as a personal identity. After all, I am very clear about the future market trend and technological development direction of flight equipment, so I have the capital to talk to the other party.

If it operates well, maybe the other party can put aside its prejudice and discuss some issues in the aerospace industry with yourself.

Having gained the trust of the "Bombardier Aerospace Group", it is naturally not a problem to help Mr. Li get some information in the aerospace industry.

But what Zhao Guoyang did not expect was that the Minister Kong Xianchao took the initiative to accompany the inspection team tomorrow. He did not expect that this boss would actually help him contact the leaders of Montreal.

As Kong Xianchao, the minister who was talking to him must be a mayor-level cadre in Montreal.

If the mayor of Montreal said, "Bombardier" would definitely have a different reception level for its inspection team.

In fact, although the "Bombardier Company" is rich, it has a close relationship with the city of Quebec and Montreal.

When the company was founded, its business was short of business, it had received investment from Quebec Investment Company.

This investment now accounts for 20% of the total shares of Bombardier.

Behind this "Quebec Investment Company" is the Montreal Municipal Government and the Quebec Provincial Bureau of Industry.

Because of tomorrow's itinerary, with Kong Xianchao joining, Zhao Guoyang felt that his chance to complete Mr. Li's mission would be much greater.

Let’s not talk about anything else. At least Kong Xianchao accompanied him. It is always OK to go to visit the production process of the “Bombardier Aerospace Group” by his own inspection team?

As long as you can see this production process, Zhao Guoyang feels that he can analyze many things.

In addition, when Minister Kong visited the "Bombardier Aerospace Group", the "Bombardier executives" who received him would definitely not be so vigilant, and would not be as cautious as the people in the inspection team as they were guarding against thieves.

In this way, there is a greater chance of obtaining useful information from their mouths.

Compared with the significance of visiting the "Bombardier Aerospace Group", Zhao Guoyang felt that the main task of the inspection team's trip to North America, the "All-terrain Vehicle", seemed less important.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhao Guoyang slowly let go of his concerns after feeling that there was basically nothing to worry about tomorrow's trip to Montreal.

I looked up at the time on the wall clock. I could sleep for about two o'clock.
