Chapter 1781 Air Transport Plan

"Mr. Chen, I haven't finished the budget report for the logistics project yet. Here are some project plans I've made. Please take a look."

Chu Han nervously handed over the documents in his hand.

I wonder if President Chen will be angry if he fails to complete the task.

However, the logistics project needed to cover the whole country, and there were too many things to prepare. Even with Assistant Li's help later, the budget was not properly prepared.

It's just about creating a plan for the logistics project.

"Well, it doesn't matter."

Chen Mo nodded upon hearing this. He already knew that the logistics project hadn't been budgeted yet, so he didn't say anything more.

First, she picked up the appointment report from the postpartum care center and started reading it.

The budget report for the entire postpartum care center was very detailed, covering site selection, construction, equipment purchase, staffing needs, etc.

Finally, let's look at the overall budget below: 5 million.

Only 500 million!

This was far below his expectations.

"The budget for this postpartum care center is a bit low."

"President Chen, the construction of this postpartum care center is arranged in accordance with the regulations of Tomorrow Group, and even the equipment for the postpartum care center is the best we have chosen."

"This budget of 500 million is already very high."

Zhang Yuqin whispered that her initial budget was only tens of millions. Later, her assistant helped make some adjustments, and the budget increased to 5 million.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Chen still considered 500 million to be too low.

That's not right!

The normal procedure should be for the boss to feel that the budget is too high and that budget should be reduced.

Why does Mr. Chen think the budget is too low?

Zhang Yuqin felt a sense of doubt, but she didn't dare to ask these questions.

I'll ask about it in the manager group later.

"I've taken a look, and your budget is indeed sound."

"But your postpartum care center is designed to compete with other postpartum care centers on the market, and that's the problem."

"Most of the postpartum care centers on the market currently have small rooms, which are only provided for pregnant women and babies. The accommodation for caregivers is more casual, and some places do not even allow caregivers to stay. Moreover, most of them have to take care of their own meals."

"We need to make some improvements in this regard. For example, we could make the rooms bigger and provide a separate room specifically for caregivers."

"Another issue is the meals. New mothers can have postpartum meals, and caregivers should also have appropriate meals arranged."

"..."

Chen Mo briefly explained his thoughts.

“Mr. Chen, postpartum care centers need to ensure a hygienic environment. If caregivers move around the postpartum care center frequently, it is very likely to increase the risk of introducing the virus.”

"If it's still a male caregiver, he might wander around and run into other women in labor, which could lead to some awkward situations."

Zhang Yuqin began to speak.

“You’re right. This is where our staff need to take precautions to protect privacy. Every room’s doors and windows must be properly sealed off.”

"Our staff must keep the room doors closed when entering or leaving."

"As for hygiene issues, our staff can deliver meals, which will prevent caregivers from moving around unnecessarily."

"In addition, the disinfection measures for entering and leaving the postpartum care center should basically solve the problem you mentioned."

"As for the other problems you mentioned, they can all be solved as long as the funds are invested."

"Here's what we'll do. I'll invest 20 billion yuan in you, and triple the scale of your current plan. Just do as I just said."

“If we’re going to invest in a postpartum care center project, then we should build the best postpartum care center.”

Chen Mo looked at Zhang Yuqin and spoke earnestly.

Hearing President Chen's earnest words, Zhang Yuqin couldn't help but nod in agreement.

"Okay Mr. Chen."

"So the matter of the postpartum care center is settled."

Chen Mo nodded and said that although the final cost of the postpartum care center was increased to 20 billion yuan.

However, given the current cash inflow of Tomorrow Group, this expenditure of 20 billion yuan will not solve anything at all.

With that in mind, he picked up the logistics project plan next to him and started looking at it.

The entire logistics plan was basically in accordance with his requirements, but some arrangements were still not conducive to the consumption of funds.

After quickly finishing reading the plan, he looked up at Chu Han sitting opposite him.

"The plan is very good, but some things need to be added."

“I just checked, and there is no air freight arrangement in your entire logistics plan.”

Upon hearing President Chen's words, Chu Han began to explain.

"Mr. Chen, I have considered air freight, but the cost is too high, and our logistics project has just been established."

"I'm worried that investing too much would be too risky."

This is the first time he has taken on such a large project, and he is also in charge of the overall affairs, so he needs to prioritize stability.

After all, he still has many shortcomings in his abilities, and he is worried that he will not be able to manage if he starts on a large scale.

It would be better to gradually increase investment as your abilities improve.

“There are risks in everything we do. We might get into a car accident if we go out, but does that mean we should never go out?”

"If there are risks, then just try to avoid them. Pay more attention to road conditions when you go out."

"So the danger is not a reason for us not to increase investment. Since we are using the banner of fast delivery, air freight will definitely be arranged."

Chen Mo looked at Chu Han and spoke seriously.

Have you ever looked into the price of air freighters?

"Mr. Chen, I've looked into the price of cargo planes. A new cargo plane, even a mediocre one, might cost around 10 billion yuan, while a better one might cost around 20 billion yuan."

"However, some airlines also sell some second-hand passenger planes, which can be modified and used as cargo planes."

“A second-hand passenger plane costs around 3 million yuan. I think we can choose to modify a second-hand passenger plane for the initial investment, which can save some money.”

Chu Han explained his thoughts in detail, revealing that he had considered air freight when making the plan.

I also used my connections with some managers in the management group to find aviation professionals and learn about the cost of cargo planes.

Moreover, if you want to engage in air transport, simply purchasing cargo planes is definitely not enough.

We also need to communicate with various airlines, since the airport needs to provide the necessary facilities for aircraft takeoff and landing.

These all require a large amount of capital.

After all, how could an airline allow you to operate within its premises without paying you?
