C919 failed? Why did domestic civil aviation order 15 Boeing aircraft without hesitation?

The promotion of the domestically produced C919 large aircraft has attracted the attention of countless Chinese people, because it is really a project that consumes a lot of manpower, material and financial resources.


However, at the moment when everyone was looking forward to it, we unexpectedly learned the news that the domestically produced C919 large aircraft was not selected.


So what the hell is going on here? What is the unknown inside story behind it?


Now some people are discussing on the Internet, C919 lost? Domestic civil aviation has chosen to order 15 Boeing aircraft. What is the reason?




At the beginning of 2023, we received the long-awaited good news.


The domestic C919 large aircraft successfully completed the delivery work, and successfully won more than 1,200 large aircraft orders.


The reason why this news makes us excited is because it is really rare, and all departments have paid countless bitterness and sweat from the beginning to the present.


You know, it took us seventeen years from the beginning of the project planning to its official completion, and the total investment cost reached about 100 billion.




Is this all that is paid for the C919 large aircraft? of course not.


In addition, in the past 17 years, 24 provinces and cities, more than 1,000 enterprises and institutions, more than 500 suppliers, and 300,000 people have participated in the construction work...


It is obvious how much we have paid for the smooth delivery of the C919 large aircraft. This is really a hard-won project.


But the announcement of a new news dashed all our hopes.




It turns out that civil aviation companies in the Hong Kong Greater Bay Area did not sign an order for the domestically produced C919 large aircraft, but instead signed an order for 15 Boeing aircraft from the US Boeing Company, with a total value of tens of billions.


In a way, this means that we have been busy for so long, as if we have been played for a while.


Speaking of this, the question arises. It is obvious that the domestically produced C919 large aircraft has been successfully delivered. Why do domestic civil aviation companies do this?


As soon as this news came out, it caused an uproar on the Internet. These netizens did not question the practice of the civil aviation company, but questioned the C919 large aircraft.



They believed that there must be some quality or safety problem in the C919 large aircraft, which was unacceptable to civil aviation companies.


Otherwise, how could there be a reversal of choosing Boeing instead of near and far? They even think that the efforts of the past ten years are all useless, and there is no meaning at all other than wasting money.


After all kinds of negative news intensified, Hong Kong Greater Bay Area Airlines had no way to sit idly by and issued a statement to clarify the rumors.


It mentioned that signing a contract with Boeing aircraft is just a very normal market transaction.


The statement also mentioned that there are not many orders for Boeing aircraft, so there is no need to wait too long when purchasing, and the delivery time is not long.


Moreover, the airlines in the Greater Bay Area have not been established for a long time. When choosing an aircraft, the cost is more important. After several considerations, it is believed that the Boeing aircraft is the most suitable for the airlines in the Greater Bay Area.


The meaning of this statement is actually very straightforward. The information sent points out that signing a contract with Boeing is not a problem with C919.


Rather, the price and delivery time of Boeing aircraft are more in line with the needs of aviation in the Greater Bay Area.


Even though the statement was released, many people still question whether this statement is true?


On the whole, there is nothing wrong with this statement, and it is worthy of our trust.


First of all, the American Boeing Company is a very experienced company that has been established for a long time, and the price of its products does have an advantage over other companies.


In addition, the Greater Bay Area Airlines has no problem considering the delivery time of the aircraft. The domestically produced C919 has already signed an order for more than 1,200 aircraft, and the task is arduous.


If the Greater Bay Area Airlines signs a contract again, the aircraft may not be delivered when it will be delivered, and the operation of the entire enterprise will be delayed.


We must know that the domestically produced C919 has just reached the stage of mass production, and the annual production capacity may only be about 150.


It would take eight years at the fastest to complete the delivery of 1,200 aircraft. How could the airlines in the Greater Bay Area wait for these eight years?


There is no problem with our determination to support domestic production, but the Greater Bay Area airline itself is also an enterprise for profit.


They have to make money first before they can consider other issues. It is definitely unrealistic to delay their own operations in order to support domestic production.


From this perspective, we cannot criticize for the sake of criticism, we must treat it with a rational attitude.


We need to know that what is happening now does not mean that the domestically produced C919 has any unsolvable problems, it is just driven by the situation.


It has been hard-won for the domestically produced C919 to achieve its current success.


It represents a milestone step for us to continue to break away from the backward and passive situation.


But we also need to maintain a humble attitude. Although we have achieved certain results, there is still a relatively large gap compared with other established companies.


We still need to forge ahead knowing what is lacking, and only by working hard towards a better goal will we have better results.
