BEIJING -- Three Chinese companies have signed deals to buy 300
Boeing Co. aircraft as part of Chinese President Xi Jinping's visit
to the U.S., official media said on Wednesday.
The purchasers included China Aviation Supplies Holding Co. as
well as the plane-leasing arms of Industrial & Commercial Bank
of China Ltd. and policy bank China Development Bank, according to
the official Xinhua News Agency. It said the companies signed the
deals on Tuesday in the U.S., where Mr. Xi has just kicked off a
state visit.
Xinhua didn't disclose the types of planes or financial
details.
It also said Commercial Aircraft Corp. of China struck a deal
with Boeing to build an aircraft completion center in China. The
Wall Street Journal reported earlier that Boeing was seeking to
assuage employee concerns over the plant, where workers will paint
the fuselage and install seats and inflight entertainment
systems.
