After confirming Xia Yu's identity, the group headed towards the Mercedes-Benz headquarters in a mighty manner. Feng Manxue also got into the car. On the way, she printed out all the information sent by Jie Rui and held it in her arms all the way.
This time we left in a hurry and the intention was also very hasty, so we could only let our personal secretary temporarily act as our work secretary.
We drove all the way through Stuttgart. Actually, Porsche is also in this city, but it hasn’t released any good cars in the past two years. Xia Yu was not interested in going in for a visit, so he went straight to the main map to the Mercedes headquarters!
They arrived soon. Xia Yu looked at the huge three-pointed star logo standing on the headquarters building, feeling extremely emotional.
Karl Benz built the first car. More than a hundred years later, humans slowly decided to abandon the internal combustion engine and enter the era of automotive electrical systems.
Mercedes-Benz is also unable to stay out of the matter. Although its signature gasoline cars are still being produced, hybrid supercars and hybrid S-Class have been released.
If you don’t reform, you will die. No one can stop the trend of the times. This is extremely cruel.
As for Xia Yu, he said that he would not buy electric cars or hybrid cars, but he was actually thinking about doing electric car business. He would probably be one of the gravediggers of internal combustion engines.
There's no way around it, he's just adapting to the times, but at least he still has some persistence.
When the convoy arrived at the entrance of the headquarters building, he saw several men in suits waiting for him at the door.
Xia Yu had done his homework before coming. The current CEO of Mercedes-Benz, Dieter Zetsche, was not in the crowd, but there was the future CEO, Ola Källenius, who is also the first foreign CEO of Mercedes-Benz and currently serves as the head of global R&D at Daimler.
It's a great honor. He will take office in May this year, and they are personally welcoming him at this time. It's definitely a great honor for him.
"Hello, Mr. Xia Yu."
As soon as he got off the car, Kang Linsong greeted us in Chinese, but that was all he knew.
"Hello, Mr. Kang Linsong."
Two hands of different skin colors held together, and without much greeting, the two sides walked into the headquarters together.
Unlike the old CEO Dieter Zetsche, Ola Källenius is a staunch supporter of electric vehicles, which is also the fundamental reason why he was chosen by the board of directors as the new CEO.
"Actually, I came to Germany at the beginning of the month, but because of a contract with Leshun, I stayed in Werder Bremen and was unable to visit right away."
Xia Yu didn't even blink and kept telling lies that were 70% true and 30% false, which could effectively narrow the distance between them.
"Oh? Mr. Xia, did you buy a yacht? I personally prefer the Leshun brand."
"You have great foresight. After we finished discussing the contract, I went to Yingguo and specifically looked at the AMGONE project."
Without going off topic, Xia Yu went straight to the point.
PS: In reality, Mercedes-Benz and Ningde announced in-depth cooperation in August 2020. Of course, they also bet on other battery companies, but this time the protagonist got there first.
