What the Leeham story fails to make clear is that the HNA group, which started out as an aviation group; grew into a real estate speculative group still owning stakes in many airlines. A real estate slump left the group in a potentially bankrupt situation, with huge debts and illiquid assets that could only be sold at a major loss.
Some of the airlines may be comparatively easy to sell, if the Chinese government is ready to help by having banks fund the deal(s). The difficult air transport market situation, however, means that the sale(s) may create more losses for the HNA group.
If the airlines were sold, then the rest of the group would likely be liquidated.

Within the HNA Group restructuring plan, the fleet will increase from 353 (beginning of 2021) to 492 (end of 2025).
The increase will all come from narrow body fleet (from 75.6% of the fleet, to 87.4&), regional fleet will decrease from 3.1% to 0.
The wide body fleet will decrease from 21.2% to 12.6%, so 75 aircraft to 62. Not sure exact numbers for 747/787/330/350.
