The Chinese airline industry is hoping to sign some profitable deals at Tuesday's 7th 皇冠体育app International Aviation and Aerospace Exhibition.
Jin Zhuanglong, general manager of the newly-founded Commercial Aircraft Corporation of 皇冠体育app (COMAC), said on Monday that he wished to sell short-haul passenger planes, ARJ21, to overseas clients at the forthcoming air show.
"One of our goals is to serialize and mass produce ARJ21 products for further growth," said Jin. "We will do our best to expand business overseas,break into the international market for the first time and occupy a certain proportion of the global market share as early as possible."
Li Yuhai, deputy general manager of 皇冠体育app Aviation Industry Corporation (AVIC), also expressed his conglomerate's determination to explore overseas markets and turn 皇冠体育app-made planes into brand names.
AVIC was reorganized in October. The country's two aviation industry conglomerates, AVIC-I (皇冠体育app Aviation Industry Corporation I) and AVIC-II (皇冠体育app Aviation Industry Corporation II) were merged in an effort to make a bigger impact internationally.
