Chapter 334 Yunhe’s Stage
Chapter 334 Yunhe’s Stage
After returning to the company, Zhang Qing immediately conveyed Kang Chi’s proposal to her think tank, and then immediately started research with them.
They followed Kang Chi’s ideas and specifically looked for places with inconvenient transportation to research, and soon discovered a market with huge potential.
“From Shangri-La to Mangkang, it is the main popular route from Caiyun Province to Zang. The total distance is 378.8 kilometers. If you drive by yourself, it will take at least 10 hours because you can only take the national highway throughout the journey.”
Cao Xiaoxiao, who once went to Xizang for a self-driving tour, said excitedly: “In fact, many tourists who have been to Shangri-La and want to go to Zang are scared off by the long journey.”
”And there are no buses between the two places. If we use Yunhe (the name of the commercial version of Yinhe) to fly in a straight line, it will take at most one hour to fly the entire 228 kilometers!”
”This will definitely greatly promote the willingness of tourists from Shangri-La to go to Zang.”
”And even if there are no tourists, the normal flow of personnel and materials between the two places alone can definitely support us to open a route here!”
Hearing Cao Xiaoxiao’s analysis, these ‘business elites’ were stunned.
The main reason is that the people Zhang Qing is looking for are all business talents in the field of science and technology. They have very little understanding of economically underdeveloped areas.
To put it bluntly, they are not very down-to-earth.
Except for Cao Xiaoxiao who has the experience of driving to Xizang, others have never been to such remote places. They can’t imagine how inconvenient the transportation is in such remote mountainous areas.
Zhang Qing has been there, but like Cao Xiaoxiao, he subconsciously believes that such high-tech aircraft are only worthy of economically developed first-tier city clusters…
The main reason is that everyone has been misled by the scenes of low-altitude aircraft flying through the city in science fiction movies. The deep-rooted thinking makes everyone ignore the huge potential of low-altitude aircraft in mountainous areas.
But after Cao Xiaoxiao’s analysis, even Zhang Qing couldn’t help but be a little surprised.
The time is directly shortened by ten times! This is really a bit exaggerated…
And as they further analyzed, they found that such routes can be found everywhere in the entire Zang area!
In the entire Zang region, there are only five civil airports for air transportation. For ground transportation, except for the more than 300-kilometer Lalin Expressway, the rest all rely on national highways, and the road conditions of national highways are much worse than those in the eastern and central regions.
For example, driving from Mangkang to Bomi along National Highway 318 requires crossing mountains and ridges for 660 kilometers, which takes at least 20 hours.
This is based on the situation that there is no traffic jam, several people take turns driving, and they don’t stop for a moment. If it is driven normally, it usually takes two days.
But the straight-line distance between the two places is actually only 260 kilometers.
This distance can also be completed in about an hour in front of Yunhe! The time is shortened by at least 20 times! “There are also places like Chaou County and MT County, which are basically isolated from the outside world.”
”MT County in particular has only one Medog Highway connecting Bomi to the outside world. Although the navigation shows that it takes 3.5 hours to travel these 116 kilometers, it is actually impossible to complete the journey without a day.”
”This highway is extremely difficult to build. The country has invested 950 million and 1.2 billion yuan successively, but can only barely build a dirt road that can accommodate four-wheel drive off-road vehicles. Ordinary cars have to break down halfway. In addition, frequent earthquakes, landslides, landslides, mudslides, and local heavy rainfall have made this road either under construction or on the way to construction.”
”In addition, from November to April of the following year, the mountains and roads are closed due to heavy snow, and MT County becomes an isolated plateau island at this time.”
Cao Xiaoxiao followed the map and combined her previous self-driving experience and feelings to continuously analyze each place with everyone.
Through these traffic data, everyone is more clearly aware that these places are the stage where Yunhe can really play a role and value!
The traffic lag makes it very difficult for Zang District to communicate with the outside world.
The high logistics costs not only increase the difficulty and price of Zang people’s access to materials, but also make it difficult for them to transport their resources and products to the outside world. Even if they are transported out, they lose their price advantage due to the high logistics costs.
Let alone fresh goods, they can’t even last.In the hands of consumers.
Under this situation, how can the economy not lag behind? People’s living standards are conceivably low.
In fact, except for Xizang, online shopping usually does not include free shipping, and places that need to pay for express delivery have similar difficulties.
So there are plenty of stages waiting for the Song Dynasty Low-altitude Transportation Company to perform!
Zhang Qing looked at the map, thought again and again, and finally chose Mangkang as the pilot hub, because it connects to Caiyun Province in the south and Bashu in the east. It is considered the southeast gate of Xizang, and the flow of people is relatively high.
However, this is only a preliminary intention. It is still necessary to go there for field investigation and communicate with the local government before it can be determined.
So the Song Dynasty Air Communication Company quickly sent a cooperation application letter for the company to settle in to the Mangkang County Government.
”Build a civil airport here?!”
When the county magistrate of Mangkang, Chaba Yusheng, heard the secretary’s report, he was stunned.
Which county in their Zang region doesn’t dream of having a civil airport?
But the problem is, how can such a poor place like them build an airport? Even if the leaders of Yanjing directly allocated money to help them build it, the high price of air tickets is not affordable for their locals, and they can only rely on tourists from other places.
But how can a poor county support an airport with just the number of tourists…
The maintenance fee of the airport alone will overwhelm them.
So it’s a dream, but it’s not realistic at all.
And building a civil aviation airport is such a big thing, which place in China hasn’t applied for various plans and conducted feasibility analysis a long time ago, Before it started construction, the media has already made it known to everyone.
Why did it happen so suddenly here?
And it was a company that they had never heard of that sent a letter to notify them? This is nonsense! Seeing Chaba Yusheng’s expression, his secretary Jijiyuan Bo naturally guessed what he was thinking, so he quickly explained: “Don’t get me wrong, I just looked carefully, they only need 20 acres of land, and they should build a helicopter airport.”
After hearing this, Chaba Yusheng was relieved: “So it’s a helicopter airport, I thought…”
”What do you think?”
”Such a good thing, of course, is welcomed with open arms!” Chaba Yusheng nodded without hesitation, “Call them immediately and invite them to come over for a detailed discussion… Forget it, give me the phone number, or I will call in person, and you can check their operating qualifications by the way.”
Companies engaged in civil helicopters are nothing more than aerial sightseeing tours, parachuting and the like.
Such companies are definitely very helpful to the local tourism industry.
But correspondingly, qualifications are also very important.
Otherwise, if something happens to the tourists, it will have a big impact on their tourism image…
