Chapter 1279 Good luck

When the people from Nanjing Automobile saw Li Ye coming with a dozen workers from the first branch, they also gathered together and "prepare for battle".

The two groups slowly approached each other, and from a distance it looked like the negotiations between Hao Nan from Causeway Bay and Yao Yang from Dongxing.

Because the two companies had met each other at an exhibition in Beijing last year, the other party's sales staff recognized Li Ye.

"Director Li, why is there such a big scene today?"

"Hey, I heard you launched a new type of bus, let's all come and show our support! What's your name, brother?"

"Just call me Lao Zhou. Our company cannot compete with you. Your Beijing brand buses have occupied the market for leaders' cars here. We can only research products that are suitable for the working people."

Old Zhou first praised the first branch factory highly, and then humbled himself.

Li Ye shook his head and smiled, "Leaders in this world are always a minority, and the working people are the foundation. If your car is really suitable for the working people, then I would like to congratulate you in advance on your big sales."

The Beijing-brand buses produced by the first branch are indeed aimed at the business reception and official vehicle markets, and in response to Li Ye’s multi-faceted requirements, they have a certain “luxury” quality.

But ordinary people will always be the majority in this world, so products targeting ordinary people will always be the foundation of a company.

"Hahahaha, thanks for your good words. We don't ask for big sales, we would be satisfied if we can have one fifth of the sales volume of your Jingcheng brand buses.

Come on, let me introduce it to Director Li. This is our new car. We call it “Deyi”. It uses the advanced technology of Iveco Bus.”

Li Ye spoke nicely, so of course Lao Zhou had to give him a warm reception. He immediately took Li Ye to visit their new car.

Xiao Zhu and others were like spies, surrounding several exhibition cars, looking left and right, lying on the ground to watch, and even finding fault with each other in private.

“The seats are not as comfortable as those in our commercial vehicles.”

"The chassis is really a beam chassis, and the driving comfort is definitely not as good as our Jingcheng brand commercial vehicles."

"The rear wheels are double wheels. Isn't this just an Iveco truck with a passenger car shell added?"

"Look here and here, they are all imported parts. I think the domestic production rate must not be high..."

“.”

But after Li Ye's cold gaze swept over them, they all fell silent.

In fact, we are all technical people, and of course we know the excellence of this "Deyi" series of buses.

Just with heating in winter and air conditioning in summer, it crushes all the light and medium-sized buses in the mainland of the same era. What's more, it also has advantages in power, fuel economy, ride comfort and so on.

The Beijing brand commercial buses of the first branch are indeed more comfortable and luxurious than this one, but the Beijing brand is a nine-seater model. Even if it is a facelift, it is estimated that there are only eleven or twelve seats.

However, Iveco's "Deyi" has a 19-seat model when it leaves the factory, and with a row of small stools in the middle, it can accommodate more than 20 people.

Passenger transport is for profit, and the operating costs require a certain number of seats. Every additional seat beyond the cost means additional profit, and the truck chassis it uses allows it to be overloaded and overcrowded.

That is to say, the number of "migrant workers" has not yet experienced explosive growth, so people do not have enough understanding of the prospects of this type of vehicle. When the free economy is completely liberalized next year, there will be explosive demand for this kind of long-distance high-speed vehicle that can travel a few hundred kilometers.

After Lao Zhou finished his introduction, Li Ye waved his hand and said, "Chief Zhou, this car is really good. Our company will order ten first."

Old Zhou said with a smile: "Director Li, we are very grateful that you can come to support us today. There is no need to spend so much money, no need to..."

"What do you mean by spending a lot of money? We really need this car."

Li Ye smiled and said to Wang Siyu: "Give them the deposit now, and then keep an eye on these exhibition cars. We will drive away after the exhibition. From now on, these cars are ours."

Old Zhou was stunned for a moment before he was sure that Li Ye was serious.

Then he said, "Thank you, Director Li. Today is the first day of the exhibition and we are open for business. I will also buy one of your Jingcheng brand commercial vehicles. Please don't think I am stingy. I am just a small section chief and don't have as high authority as you."

"Yeah, what are you talking about! Good luck in opening the door, good luck in opening the door."

"Hahahahaha, good luck with the opening and booming business."

Both of them made their first business deal and got a jackpot. They were very happy at the moment and congratulated each other by bowing.

But at this moment, a man came running over from a distance, shouting to Lao Zhou: "Section Chief Zhou and Xiao Sun are fighting over there, everyone go help them."

“.”

He ran eastward.

Li Ye and others were stunned for a moment, then followed.

To the east is the exhibition area of ​​foreign car dealers, and it is said that there are expensive "imported luxury cars", so Li Ye had planned to go over and take a look later. Now that something has happened, it would be a good idea to go over and take a look in advance.

When everyone ran to the east, they found that the flow of people was indeed greater than in other places. Obviously, this drizzle could not extinguish the man's love and obsession with "luxury cars".

Luxury cars and beautiful women, luxury cars come before beautiful women, there must be some truth to what our ancestors said.

"It's over there at the Bayer exhibition area. We just queued for a long time and someone cut in line. We got so angry that we started arguing, but they were totally unreasonable, and Bayer's dealers were also unreasonable."

Bayer is BMW.

Before 1992, the BWM with blue sky and white clouds was not called BMW in the mainland. Instead, it was called Bayir according to the transliteration, similar to that in Hong Kong Island.

However, although the saying "drive a BMW, ride in a Mercedes-Benz" has not yet become popular, the excellent handling characteristics of BMW are already widely known. Therefore, it is understandable that there are many people visiting, but it is really a bit too much to cut in line when visiting.

And now because of the fight, there are people everywhere inside and outside.

"Make way, make way."

"What are you squeezing? What are you squeezing?"

"We're going in to fight, why are you talking about squeezing?"

"Oh, then you go first."

People from the mainland like to watch the fun, so when they heard that Lao Zhou and others were going in to fight, they immediately made way for them.

Then Lao Zhou, Li Ye and others squeezed in.

But after they squeezed in, they couldn't fight at all.

Because there are more than 20 people in Nanjing Automobile and the first branch together, and there are only four on the other side, it would be strange if a fight could break out.

Several BMW staff in suits stepped in to prevent the situation from escalating.

When Lao Zhou saw that his employees all had broken noses, he immediately yelled, "Why did you cut in line? Why did you hit people?"

The other party said: "Who cut in line? The queue is for people who are going to buy cars, you poor bastards are the ones cutting in line."

"Who are you calling poor? Who can't afford a junk car?"

"I just can't afford it. It's four hundred thousand! Can I afford it?"

"How do you know we can't afford it? Is four hundred thousand a lot?"

"Haha, I can tell from the looks of it that you are just wage earners. You won't make $400,000 in your lifetime."

“.”

Li Ye watched coldly, seeing the quarrel getting more and more intense, but Bayir's people were clearly on the side of the four locals, while NAC seemed to have a natural incompatibility with the locals and it seemed like they were about to start a fight again at any time.

"Who said they can't afford it? They look down on people."

A middle-aged woman suddenly came over and scolded Bayir's employees coldly, and all the employees lowered their heads.

Then, the woman turned to Li Ye and said with a smile: "Why, you don't even call me aunt when you see me?"

Li Ye looked at the other party, then looked at the Bayir employees who lowered their heads, and couldn't help but murmur in his heart.

[Has she cleaned herself up and come ashore? ]
