Xinhua News Agency reporter

On the 29th, the history of aviation and aircraft leasing ushered in a historic moment: Tianjin Dongjiang Comprehensive Free Trade Zone delivered the 2000th aircraft.

From 0 to 2000, more than 10 years, this former salt -alkali beach has developed from the source of my country's financial leasing strategy to the second largest aircraft leasing center after Ireland, and its business accounts for about 80 % of the country. In every two or three domestic transport aircraft, one is leased through Dongjiang.

With the continuous expansion of the industrial territory, Dongjiang broke the monopoly of international giants, and "rented" a new industry of 600 billion yuan, which caused a significant decline in the purchase cost of aircraft in my country.

2000, marked the new height of Chinese aircraft leasing

On the morning of the 29th, a domestic ARJ21 aircraft was delivered to China International Aviation Co., Ltd. by Tianjin by Agricultural Bank Financial Leasing Co., Ltd.

"This is the 2000th settlement delivered by Dongjiang since 2009, marking a new height in the air transportation industry and aircraft manufacturing industry in China." Liu Liu, director of the Tianjin Dongjiang Comprehensive Free Trade Zone Management Committee.

Aircraft leasing is called the "pearl in the crown" of the leasing industry. In 2009, there were only one Chinese -funded enterprise in the top 50 global aircraft leasing companies. Today, this number has become 15, and eight have entered the top 20 in the world. Most of them are flying from the East Xinjiang.

As the world's second largest aircraft leasing center, among the 2000 aircraft that has been delivered in Dongjiang, it covers more than 70 models and serves more than 40 domestic and foreign airlines at home and abroad, with assets worth 600 billion yuan.

2000, what does it mean for my country's aviation industry?

"Compared with leasing through overseas companies, the comprehensive cost of Dongjiang has decreased by more than 10%, saving tens of billions of yuan for airlines and transmitting to fares, which has driven more people to choose aviation travel. This is the rapid development of my country's aviation transportation industry. Provide strong help, "Yang Liu told reporters.

From 2010 to 2021, China ’s transport aircraft increased from 1597 to 4054. Among them, the proportion of transportation aircraft leased through Dongjiang accounted for more than 1/3.

"The high -speed development of the aircraft leasing industry has released the signal of my country's high -quality development." Zhang Wei, a publisher of the development index of China's (Dongjiang) financial leasing industry and a professor of chair professor in Tianjin University.

The rapid development of aircraft leasing has also effectively served the domestic aircraft manufacturing industry.

"As of now, more than 80%of the domestic ARJ21 aircraft are delivered through leasing, and more than half of them have been completed through Dongjiang." Said Huang Zuhuan, the person in charge of the COMAC Marketing Center.

From 0 to 2000, try to try the new way first

Chinese aircraft leasing began with the helplessness of the "0th shelf".

In 2009, the first Airbus A320 was offline, and it was interested in renting to domestic companies, but faced the dilemma of "both ends inside and the middle".

"Why do Chinese people renting a plane on the ground of China? Why should they go back to foreign countries?" Liu Qingliang, director of the Police Administration of Free Trade Zone, who had experienced the time, said that the newly started China's leasing industry was full of ambitions.

The ideal is full, and the reality is skinny. At that time, through overseas leasing aircraft, airlines could pay import tariffs in installments in installments; they needed to pay at one time in China, and the amount of funds was large. The final business fell in Ireland.

The pain point is the innovation point. But taking the first step is not easy.

How to set up the company, how to manage the customs, how to pay the tax ... there is no ready -made policy. For a few months, Dongjiang staff almost "long" in Beijing, perseverance to fight for the support of various departments.

At the end of 2009, the country's first single -bonded aircraft leasing landed in Dongjiang and opened the curtain of rapid development of aircraft leasing in my country.

"The aircraft leasing involves a wide range of faces and the difficulty of innovation, but Dongjiang has not stopped at the moment." Shi Jinfeng, deputy director of the Financial Leasing Promotion Bureau of Dongjiang Comprehensive Free Trade Zone, said.

For more than 10 years, Dongjiang boldly tried and tried boldly. Pilot operating leasing collects foreign currency rent, implement customs supervision of customs, and carry out pilots facilitating foreign debt in financial leasing companies ... As the policy continues to "unlock", Dongjiang explores dozens of aircraft leasing models, and use many "national first orders" interpretation. Innovative charm.

"The aircraft leasing has strong personalization, and each single business has different policy needs." Said Li Peng, deputy general manager of ICBC Aviation Financial Leasing Co., Ltd., but the strong "policy supply power" of Dongjiang is escorted by the industry.

Open the third 1000 to create a global influence

From serving domestic "renting global and global lease", Dongjiang has continuously opened up the world map of China's leasing.

Not long ago, Dongjiang completed a customs procedure required for a cross -border transfer to lease aircraft in one day. "Transfer the assets of overseas aircraft to Dongjiang, showing the company's confidence in the realization of Dongjiang's realization of transactions and circulation." Xu Feng, general manager of China Southern Airlines International Financial Leasing Co., Ltd., said.

At present, Dongjiang Aircraft Leasing has entered a mature deepening period. From the initial "leased property+capital" combination, it was upgraded to a variety of aircraft asset management systems such as financing, trading, technology, supervision, airworthiness, registration, etc., and continuously extended to the middle and back end of the industry to form "leasing+trading", "leasing", "leasing" +Maintenance "" Lease+Modification "and other modes.

"From the capital side to the asset side, we are entering the most gold -containing link." Shi Jinfeng said.

Data show that the annual transaction volume of Dongjiang aircraft assets from less than 20 orders in 2019, more than 70 orders in 2021, especially cross -border transactions have grown rapidly, accounting for about half of 2021.From domestic to overseas, Dongjiang has cooperated with airlines in Indonesia, Malaysia and other countries to carry out offshore aircraft leasing business.

"With the advantages of the‘ two districts of the comprehensive bonded area and the “two districts” in the Pilot Zone, Dongjiang still has great potential and space. "Yu Ying, the co -owner of the KPMG government and the public institutional industry, said.

It took 8 years to deliver the first 1,000, and the second 1000 settled for only 5 years.When will the third 1000 settle?"Despite the influence of the global epidemic, we are still confident that it will be completed within 5 years." Liu Liu said that the Chinese plan will serve the world in the future.

Standing on the new runway delivered by 2000 aircraft, a blueprint for a global aircraft leasing center with world influence is spreading slowly.(Reporter Liu Yuanxu, Wang Jinghuai, Li Ting, Sister Liang)
