Unfortunately, when they talked about the matter later, he discovered that although Fan Dongping had outstanding management skills, he was not good at operating airlines. This shortcoming destined him to miss the second position.
Fan Dongping is also self-aware and aware of his own shortcomings. At the same time, he also bluntly said that when a company is first established, it is better to have a leader with wider connections.
His attitude won Li Xiucheng's admiration, and he was eventually positioned as the general manager of AllBright Airlines.
From now on, he should be in charge of the company's internal affairs, and someone else should be found to control operational matters and the company's development direction.
"It's work, you should!" Fan Dongping said with a smile, and then pointed at the terminal: "I have something to do over there, Mr. Li, you guys are busy!"
Fan Dongping left with great discernment, leaving Li Xiucheng face to face with the three interviewers.
The three interviewees are all senior executives of the domestic aviation system, but two are senior executives of Air China and one is a senior executive of China Eastern Airlines.
"Hello three of you!"
Li Xiucheng walked down the gangway and stood in front of the three people. After introducing each other, he said straight to the point: "AllBright Airlines is a new company. I am busy and have no time to manage it myself. In the early stage, Supervisor Fan was in charge of the establishment of the company.
Now, the company is on track to launch its first flight in November.
But the company lacked an operational leader.
These three are the right candidates that I have been looking for for a long time. Now that three of them have come to participate in the interview invitation, it shows that everyone is still very optimistic about the future of AllBright Airlines.
However, there is only one general manager position.
So next, please let the three of you express your opinions. Let’s talk about the future of Jintian, the future of civil aviation, or the future of the private aviation industry! "
Of course the three of them understood this so-called expression of their own opinions, which was used to decide whether to stay or go, and they immediately cheered up.
AllBright Airlines is the first private airline in China. Regardless of its future, the name alone is already very tempting. If you can successfully become the general manager and run this company, it will be considered to be making history in a sense. .
Otherwise, they wouldn't give up their promising future in their original unit and come here to try it.
Li Xiucheng smiled at the only middle-aged woman among the three: "Ladies first! Ms. Luo please!"
Ms. Luo's name is Luo Fanghui. She is from China Eastern Airlines. She has short ears and short hair and looks extremely capable.
She stood up straight and looked extremely calm.
Giving priority to women is both an advantage and a disadvantage, because the topic given by Li Xiucheng is very big, and there are many points that can be used in the first words, but there is also a high possibility that the topic will be dull because the points are too broad.
"Okay, Mr. Li! Then I'll start with the civil aviation industry.
In my opinion, the civil aviation industry in the future will be unprecedentedly prosperous, not only domestically, but also worldwide.
This is supported by data. The substantial increase in flight frequency in major coastal cities in my country is the best proof.
With the general environment being like this, the private aviation industry is naturally unlikely to suffer. Now, as the first private airline, Jintian is in the right place at the right time.
As long as we quickly establish our brand and then strengthen our hard power, we believe we can compete with the established Air China in the future.
I...."
Luo Fanghui kept talking about her opinions. Li Xiucheng smiled the whole time and nodded from time to time, perfectly acting as an audience.
After she finished speaking, she didn't express her position, but just motioned for the next one to follow.
The second interviewer is Yan Yongzheng, a very serious middle-aged man.
He spoke neither quickly nor slowly, but his language was quite concise.
“The characteristic of air transportation is that it is fast and safe, but its disadvantage is that it is expensive. Therefore, for a long time in the future, air transportation will serve high-end business people, civil servants, and foreigners.
As the reform and opening up progresses, the number of businessmen and corporate executives will continue to increase, and naturally the dependence on the aviation industry will also greatly increase.
The pie in the aviation industry will become bigger and bigger. As AllBright Airlines enters the market first, it will have the opportunity and power to share the pie.
As long as we grasp it well, we can develop and grow quickly. This is a huge advantage, but it will definitely be feared by the established airlines. Therefore, our competition with the established airlines will be extremely fierce, which requires us... ..”
After hearing what he said, Li Xiucheng nodded. Although Luo Fanghui and Yan Yongzheng had different focuses, they generally had the same meaning. They were both optimistic about the future civil aviation industry and focused on improving the company's competitiveness.
Yan Yongzheng is inferior. Judging from his performance, he is somewhat similar to Fan Dongping. If there is no Fan Dongping, it would be good to let him be Jintian's internal affairs manager.
Relatively speaking, Luo Fanghui is stronger, has an overall view, has a clear understanding of the development of the domestic and foreign aviation industry, and is also very clear about the positioning of AllBright Airlines. If there is no better one, she can use it.
Next, let’s look at the last somewhat arrogant ‘young man’.
Li Xiucheng smiled at the youngest interviewer among the three and said, "Mr. Meng, please!"
Meng Yudu, like Yan Yongzheng, comes from Air China, and they are still colleagues. He is 41 years old, at the peak of his life when he is young, strong and experienced.
His arrogant heart made him not satisfied with being a senior executive in Air China, so he took this interview very seriously.
Hearing Li Xiucheng's words, he nodded and cleared his throat before speaking.
"The aviation industry is destined to prosper, but the future of private aviation companies is unknown. We cannot be blindly optimistic."
Luo Fanghui and Yan Yongzheng were stunned by just one sentence, but the curvature of the corners of Li Xiucheng's mouth became wider.
interesting!
Both of them are singing the praises of the future, but one of them is saying the opposite, either for the sake of sensationalism or because they really have ideas.
He was actually looking forward to it.
Meng Yu didn't care what others thought. He stood on the spot, raised his chin slightly and said loudly: "The aviation industry is different from other industries. Passenger personal safety, airspace safety, promotion of local economy, etc., he There's so much involved.
This is doomed that the aviation industry cannot be completely relaxed.
Therefore, political guidance and administrative intervention will always exist in this industry, but the degree is different.
Therefore, it is wrong to be blindly optimistic about the future of private aviation companies. "
Luo Fanghui and Yan Yongzheng's expressions were a little unnatural, as they directly denied what they just said.
This is a bit of a slap in the face.
Luo Fanghui couldn't help but retort: "Of course we will use control, but how can we be directly interfered with in specific business competition?"
"Who knows!" Meng Yudu was not annoyed and smiled and said: "I am just reasoning based on the actual situation, just saying it is possible."
"snort!"
At this time, Luo Fanghui stopped talking. After all, no one knew what would happen in the future. If she continued to say it was impossible, she would be suspected of making trouble unreasonably.
At this time, Li Xiucheng's voice rang out, "Then when you say that, are you really not optimistic about the private aviation industry?"
