Volkswagen Group.
Windelow called his assistant over.
"I heard that the Nian has been officially released.”
"Nian beast?"
The assistant was stunned for a moment before he remembered the sports car from the Dragon Country that was tested at the Ella Alessin Stadium.
However, why would the Volkswagen Group, which had a market value of 100 billion US dollars, pay attention to a supercar that had not yet been listed in the Dragon Country? In the past, the car manufacturers in the Dragon Country would also make a sports car, but in the end, it turned out to be a complete joke. They relied on the engines and transmissions they bought to build a supercar.
"Yes, this is the car."
Wendelao's expression was solemn.
"This car is different. In the past, the supercars announced by the Dragon Country did not have core technology, so there's nothing to be afraid of. "However, this one is different. From the beginning to the end, they made it themselves and even mastered the core technology. As you know, the industrial design ability of the Dragon Country is actually not weak. The only thing they lack is the production process and manufacturing ability.”
"The fact that they can create this Nian means that their production technology has reached an extremely high level.”
In industrial production, the most difficult part was not the design. The technology was also difficult, but when it came to using the brain, everyone had the same brain.
The people of the Dragon Country had high intelligence.
The difficult part was the production process, manufacturing, and finding an excellent balance between cost, process, and market demand. These were all accumulated skills and experience, and could not be improved overnight.
Chen Fang and Zhang Puhe had created Nian beasts, which meant that they had made a huge breakthrough in their production technology.
The assistant's expression changed slightly.
"I understand, sir. Please wait a moment. I'll check it out.”
Soon, the assistant reported that Zhang Puhe had already held another press conference in the country and announced the price of the Nian beast. It was 15.88 million and was officially listed on the market.
The specific delivery plan was not announced.
"Very good. Go find Sam and ask him to hold a major press conference for me in the Dragon Country to release their new Chiron.”
Sam was the head of the Bugatti department.
As far as the assistant knew, the new car was the latest mass-produced version of Bugatti's Chiron Super Sprot 300 . It was originally planned to be released in May this year.
"Boss, are you sure?"
Bugatti had never launched a new car in the Dragon Country, even though the Dragon Country had gradually become Bugatti's most important market.
Deep down, Bugatti was arrogant and looked down on the Dragon Country.
Now, not only did they have to launch the new car in the Dragon Country, but they also disrupted the original sales plan and sold it ahead of time.
Was it because of Nian?
Was he trying to compete with the Nian beast and steal its popularity?
The assistant didn't expect Wendelao to place so much importance on Nian beasts.
" I'm sure. Go and make the arrangements."
Windrow waved his hand, indicating that the assistant could leave.
Very soon, Bugatti spent money to promote and announced that it would hold a new car launch in the Dragon Country.
In the advertisement, it was specially stated that this was the first time in history.
When the news was released, it also attracted a lot of attention.
"I just found out that Bugatti has never launched a new car in the Dragon Country. Didn't they say that Bugatti is limited to 100 cars and that there are 1,000 cars in the Dragon Country?”
" The key is that Bugatti is releasing a new car at this time. I saw the news from the Home of Cars that the new Chiron production car was originally released in May. I don't know why it's suddenly brought forward. Could it be because of the Nian?”
"That's impossible. Just because our Dragon Country created a supercar, Bugatti wants to suppress us? Are you kidding me? Nian and Bugatti are not on the same level at all.”
"That's most likely the case. Otherwise, why would Bugatti release a new car in advance? Moreover, it chose to release the new car at the time when Nian was just released.”
"What the hell is this Bugatti doing? Why does it value the Nian so much? Does it think that the Nian will affect their sales?”
"Hmph, these foreign companies usually earn our money. Now that our country's car manufacturers are doing well, they're coming to suppress us. There's nothing to say. We have to boycott Bugatti and support Nian.”
"How do you support it? 15.88 million. Do you support it with your feet?”
Zhang Puhe's secretary at Wuling Group reported the Bugatti press conference to Zhang Puhe.
"Director Zhang, I've seen the analysis on the Internet. This Bugatti is clearly coming for us. We have to be vigilant.”
Zhang Puhe was slightly stunned, but the first thought in his mind was happiness.
Bugatti announced the new car in advance and came to the Dragon Country for the first time to compete with the Nian beast, wanting to suppress it.
What did this mean?
It meant that Bugatti valued Nian!
In the past, people didn't even care about you and didn't put you in their eyes at all.
Now that he values you, it means that you have become powerful to the point where you can influence others.
"That's good news."
"Something good?"
The secretary blinked, unable to read Zhang Puhe's mind.
"Alright, don't care about the things on the Internet. It's all nonsense. Besides, I created the Nian brand with Boss Chen. It has nothing to do with our Wuling Group.”
"I don't care if the Nian sells well or not. Even if it doesn't sell a single one, it doesn't matter. It was able to break the world record on the Eraalesin Racetrack, and it has already completed its mission. I believe that in the history of the Dragon Country's auto industry, there will definitely be a heavy mark of the Nian.”
"This is enough for me.”
The secretary's eyes widened. Only then did she know what Zhang Puhe was thinking.
After spending so much money, he didn't care even if he couldn't sell one Nian.
"Right!"
Zhang Puhe recalled something else.
"Gather the heads of the various departments, especially the R D department, and get them to produce a report on the possibility of producing an A-class sedan.”
The secretary was shocked.
"An A-class sedan. President Zhang, are we going to build a sedan?”
Wuling had never made a car, or rather, it wanted to make one, but it couldn't.
The auto industry was an extremely cruel industry. There were also precise market segments. There were so many auto manufacturers in the Dragon Country, but why couldn't the B-class cars sold to Toyota Volkswagen?
The lack of technology was one thing. The most important thing was that they had been in this market for decades and had accumulated a lot of experience. They had successfully found a balance between cost and technology.
Just like Coca-Cola, if you sell it cheaper than me, the cost will be too high, and you will lose money. If you sell it more expensive than me, you won't be able to sell it to me.
Wuling was able to settle down and sell millions of vehicles a year because it had found a precise positioning and sold vans. Even your Volkswagen Toyota couldn't sell a van in this price range.
Now, it was the cruelest competition in the A-class sedan market. It was simply asking for abuse.
What was so great about this level? Corolla, Xuanyi, Jetta, and Lavida were not easy to deal with.
"That's right, we're going to take a car. Alright, I know what to do. Hurry up and inform them.”
Zhang Puhe didn't care if the year beast succeeded or not.
However, the success of the Nian beast allowed Zhang Puhe to see Chen Fang's mastery of car manufacturing.
If he worked with Chen Fang, he might be able to make a low-cost grocery cart that could take a taxi.
Once he succeeded, the profits would be incomparable to selling a few supercars.
Zhang Puhe didn't care about Nian's sales at all, but he didn't expect it to explode.
After the press conference, Bugatti directly opened the pre-sales channel.
At the same time, Bugatti also found a lot of big V-like figures to lead the pace. They said that there was no comparison between the Nian and Bugatti. Even if the Nian created the fastest mass-produced car record, so what? A supercar wasn't just fast.
No matter how fast you are, can you still go on the track every day?
When the local tycoons bought supercars, they wanted to look cool. In this world, what car was more cool than a Bugatti?
No!
Some of the big verified accounts even bluntly said that Nian was trash compared to Bugatti. They would never buy Nian even if they were beaten to death.
At this moment, Nian's official website announced the sales volume after the pre-sales channel was opened for ten days.
The sales volume had exceeded 100 units!
1.7 billion yuan!
This sales result shocked many people.
This was a supercar, and it was a supercar that had sold for 16 million. Selling 100 units in ten days could be said to be very impressive.
When the news spread, there was an uproar, especially those big verified accounts who took the money. They were even more insulted.
Didn't you say that Nians were trash and couldn't compare to Bugatti at all? In the end, 100 in ten days!
Do you think your Bugatti has such sales?
"I didn't expect the Nian beasts to sell so well.”
"100 units in ten days. It shouldn't be a problem to sell a few hundred units a year. Moreover, this is only the Dragon Country. If we sell them overseas, the sales will probably be even higher.”
"What's funny is that those big accounts said that Nian was trash. Now, they're directly slapping their faces. Let's see what they have to say.”
"Especially when Brother Xu talked about cars. He previously said that Nian was trash, but now there's a bunch of people criticizing him. They say that he worships foreign things and has lost hundreds of thousands of fans.”
"Brother Xu has already sent a video to apologize. He said that he didn't do it on purpose and that he said that because Bugatti paid him.”
"F * ck, is Bugatti that ruthless? They actually spent money to lead the way.”
"What do you think? Our Dragon Country has just created a good supercar, and these foreign supercar manufacturers have come to suppress it. If I had money, I would support Nian too.”
"Does Bugatti really think that those rich people are fools? You sell a Chiron for 30 to 40 million, but this Nian is only 16 million. There's a difference of more than 20 million, and its performance is about the same.”
Zhang Puhe didn't care about the ups and downs of the year beasts, Chen Fang didn't care either.
It was just for fun. It would be best if it succeeded, but it didn't matter if it didn't.
At the end of March, Chen Fangzheng listened to the company's operations.
Compared to last year, the biggest revenue in the first quarter of this year was definitely the exclusive license fee for virtual reality technology.
6.6 billion USD a year.
The second was the solid-state solute.
With the patent applications from major countries around the world, many capitals began to enter the market. Chen Fang's royalties could be said to be soft.
For example, when Tesla obtained the exclusive license of Beauty Nation, Musk directly announced the construction of a 20-million-ton factory to meet the huge demand for solid-state lithium batteries in Beauty Nation.
"Just tell me directly how much our revenue is for this quarter.”
Ling Ruoyun put down the financial report and took a deep breath.
"In the first quarter, our total revenue was 54.1 billion.”
Of course, Ling Ruoyun had not forgotten Chen Fang's greatest concern, the tax.
"In the first quarter, we should pay 13.5 billion in profits and taxes.”
Chen Fang's eyes lit up. He had to pay 10 billion yuan in taxes.
It was more than 100 tax points.
He was going to be rich this time.
