Charter flights, undoubtedly, offer a far greater degree of convenience.

Not long after that, Liu Yong, Qiu Yang, and their entourage, consisting of more than a dozen individuals, embarked on the aircraft.

"Wow, impressive! It's so spacious," remarked one of them.

"This is my first time experiencing a charter flight, and it's truly remarkable," another chimed in.

Their spirits were lifted upon boarding the plane, bolstered by the impeccable service provided by the captivating and hospitable flight attendants.

Naturally, Liu Yong and Qiu Yang occupied the first-class section, seated adjacently. Turning to his companion, Qiu Yang informed him, "Boss, the flight to Changxing City will take approximately 70 minutes. President Fan Xuewen of Changxing Island Shipbuilding Group will personally receive us at the airport."

Upon receiving this report, Liu Yong smiled, "Seems like we carry significant weight. Mr Fan himself is going to greet us at the airport."

Fan Xuewen's decision to welcome them personally stemmed from two principal factors. Firstly, the Global Shipping Group possessed extraordinary prowess and rapid development. Secondly, the group's order this time was substantial, entailing the procurement of several large-scale vessels.

For Changxing Island Shipbuilding Group, such a momentous order was a rare opportunity and a matter of great importance. Hence, their top-ranking officials deemed receiving Liu Yong and his companions warmly necessary.

Before long, the aircraft took off, soaring toward Changxing City, a major coastal metropolis in the Yan Kingdom's northeastern region.

Awaiting their arrival at Terminal 1 was a convoy, which had already positioned itself. Alongside the two S600 luxury sedans stood a fleet of high-end commercial vehicles.

Fan Xuewen had gathered his senior management team, their eyes fixed on the exit as they eagerly anticipated the arrival of Liu Yong and his party.

"Mr. Fan, we have received intel that Mr. Liu and his entourage have disembarked from the aircraft and will soon be emerging," a subordinate informed Fan Xuewen.

Nodding in acknowledgement, Fan Xuewen adjusted his tie and suit, issuing a command, "Everyone, remain alert! Our guests will soon emerge."

In response, all his subordinates stood at attention, brimming with energy and sporting warm smiles.

Soon enough, Liu Yong and the group emerged from the airport, catching sight of Fan Xuewen, who took the initiative to greet them. Upon their meeting, warm handshakes were exchanged, along with polite greetings that elicited hearty laughter.

Liu Yong felt invigorated, revelling in the VIP-level treatment extended to them. Not only were they personally welcomed at the airport, but they were also met with warm and courteous hospitality.

Following some pleasant exchanges, upon Fan Xuewen's invitation, Liu Yong boarded one of the S600 sedans while the rest of the party followed suit in the remaining vehicles.

Changxing Island Shipbuilding Group— a formidable shipbuilding enterprise in China, boasting a substantial scale and unwavering strength.

They could construct numerous large civilian ships, including specialized vessels of considerable size.

For instance, the 85,000-ton ultra-large oceanic salvage ship, known as the "Blue Whale," owned by the Global Shipping Group, had been meticulously designed and constructed by Changxing Island Shipbuilding Group.

Outside the factory gates, an air of excitement permeated the atmosphere. A ceremonial drum team and a vibrant lion dance troupe stood prepared, surrounded by a sea of red firecrackers strewn across the ground.

Such a grand spectacle quickly captured the attention of numerous employees, fueling their curiosity. Queries arose among the intrigued crowd.

"Hey, what's happening today? It's such a magnificent affair. Perhaps a high-ranking official is visiting for inspection."

"Yes, with such an extravagant reception, the guest must possess considerable stature."

Some individuals engaged in theoretical discussions, while others were privy to insider information, having possibly heard some "unofficial news."

"I heard the Boss of the Global Shipping Group personally came here. There might be a significant order in the works for us."

"What? The Global Shipping Group!"

As members of the Changxing Island Shipbuilding Group, they were aware of the Global Shipping Group. Suddenly, realization dawned upon them.

Moments later, several individuals unfurled a massive banner, positioning it proudly above the Dachang gate. Its conspicuous lettering read:

[ " Welcome Mr Liu Yong from the Global Shipping Group and his entourage to Changxing Island Shipbuilding Group. " ]

Gradually, the factory gate grew livelier, bustling with many people.

Suddenly, a loud cry pierced the air, "They're here! The convoy is approaching!"

As the proclamation echoed, resounding gongs and drums erupted, accompanied by a captivating Yangko dance. The convoy became visible on the horizon, and crackling firecrackers filled the atmosphere with joyous exuberance.

Seated in the vehicle, Liu Yong turned to Fan Xuewen and exclaimed, "President Fan, your hospitality is truly exceptional."

Sensing Liu Yong's satisfaction and delight, Fan Xuewen felt a sense of relief, responding with equal enthusiasm, "Liu Yong, you are our esteemed guests, and it's only fitting that we extend every courtesy."

The convoy inched forward, passing through the factory gates into the premises. The pace remained deliberately unhurried to facilitate Liu Yong and the others' visit.

Liu Yong gazed out the car window, observing the sprawling factory complex while Fan Xuewen, acting as their guide, enthusiastically narrated the company's details.

Finally, the convoy arrived in front of the imposing office building of Changxing Island Shipbuilding Group.

Upon Fan Xuewen's invitation, everyone entered the office building and settled in a spacious lounge. The shipyard had left no stone unturned in their preparations, ensuring everything was primed and ready.

The grand reception room exuded brightness and cleanliness, meticulously arranged and adorned with fresh fruits. Hot tea and coffee were readily available, with dedicated staff attending to the guests' needs.

As everyone settled in, an atmosphere of relaxation and camaraderie enveloped the room, punctuated by intermittent bursts of joyous laughter.

After indulging in casual conversation for at least ten minutes, Fan Xuewen, speaking on behalf of Changxing Island Shipbuilding Group, broached the topic, saying, "Our group boasts a rich history and formidable capabilities. Currently, our largest shipyard lies vacant. As soon as Mr. Liu places an order, we can commence construction without delay."

Liu Yong responded, "We are interested in building several large container bulk carriers within your group."

This had been a deliberate decision on Liu Yong's part. While the Global Shipping Group possessed numerous large oil tankers, their fleet of container ships could have been improved.

Apart from oil tankers, container ships ranked second in terms of profitability. For instance, shipping a standard container from Huahai City to Europe took approximately 30 days, generating a shipping fee of $1,500 per container.

A large bulk carrier could transport over 10,000 standard containers, yielding total freight revenues exceeding $15 million—equivalent to hundreds of millions in Yan Guo currency.

But what about shipping costs?

Fuel consumption averaged around 150 tons daily, with heavy oil priced at approximately $500 per ton. Additional expenses such as lashing fees, berthing at docks, food provisions, and employee wages totalled around $3 million.

Excluding costs, the gross profit exceeded $12 million.

Earning over $12 million in a single voyage—what could be more lucrative than this? With favourable business prospects, a large bulk carrier capable of transporting 10,000 standard containers could recoup its investment in two to three years, generating substantial net profits.

Considering these factors, Liu Yong constructed several additional large bulk carriers.

Fan Xuewen responded enthusiastically, "Large container bulk carriers are an excellent choice. We have no issues with their design and construction."
