en.AvBuyer.com.cn: It is our honor to have Mr. Gerhard Kleber and Mr. Ye Qing here. As the supplier of the baggage handling system at T3 building at Beijing Capital International Airport, Siemens has gained some successful experience from securing Beijing Olympic Games. Please give us a general introduction of Siemens' hardworking for it.
Siemens: At first, we want to express our great gratitude to the relevant units for their support to Siemens. This project is a success of Siemens, and it is also a great success of China, as well as Beijing Capital Airport. We also sent the Letter of Thanks to our clients.
en.AvBuyer.com.cn: Mr. Li Jiaxiang, Minister of CAAC said at the interview that China would invest 400 billion yuan to the airport and regional airlines before 2010. China will build or reconstruct 140 civil airports. It is a great opportunity and challenge for Siemens. What about the marketing plan and preparation of Simens?
Siemens: We have set up our brand by the successful solution for Capital Airport, and we also establish the mutual trust relationships with Capital Airport Holding Company, CAAC and the government.
Siemens has built a 120 technological expert team in Beijing, who are from Germany and China. This professional team lays a solid foundation for our projects in future. We are able to provide much safer solutions for our clients.
en.AvBuyer.com.cn: The investment for the middle and small sized airports is about 1 billion or less. So that can Siemens provide the high performance-price ratio baggage handling system for these airports?
Siemens: As a matter of fact, most of Siemens' clients are middle and small sized airports. Among the 400 airports around the world which use Siemens' product solutions, there are more than 300 middle and small sized airports. We produce the relevant equipments. I believe Siemens can also provide satisfactory service to middle and small sized airports.
