Chapter 1504: Car Logo Dispute (Part 1)
After receiving the news, Mr. Zhang, who had been staying here for half a month while waiting for the news and settling in the Automotive Research Institute, was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief. The higher-ups agreed, so there's nothing else to say, just like the fat man, with a wave of his hand, just start working.
The L50 is already a mature model. It has been launched for such a long time, and any minor problems have been found and improved. This is good for mature models, so you don't have to worry about the technology being too low, let alone the lack of time.
Of course, the T-head is not an ordinary material, and the basic material is titanium alloy. FAW had already prepared these materials, and with a nod from above, they immediately began to deliver them. If you say that FAW didn't plan on this matter, even if you beat Guo Tailai to death, you wouldn't believe it.
Processing and manufacturing is not a troublesome thing for Guo Tailai, and Guo Tailai also enjoys this kind of manufacturing process. The new cars to be built this time are still the old rules, four titanium alloy versions, and four ordinary material bulletproof versions. However, in addition to the big red flag, there are four armored buses, which also need to be updated with bulletproof materials.
The workload is not small, Guo Tailai and FAW division of labor and cooperation. FAW is in charge of the ordinary bulletproof version of the car, and Guo Tailai is in charge of the titanium alloy. Everyone is happy to cooperate.
In the process of building the car easily, the fourth satellite was successfully launched at one time. Watching the rocket rising slowly on the TV screen, Guo Tailai couldn't hide his happiness. It seems that the astronauts are determined to earn Guo Tailai's early completion bonus.
Liu Yang has been accompanying Mr. Zhang for the past few days to settle down FAW's automobile research institute and start working, but he has no way to rest in the future, because Dongfeng's automobile research institute has also come. Not only that, Microsoft's research center, India's R&D center, and several real estate investments have also begun to register and establish projects, and they are very busy.
In their crazy busyness, Mr. Gao from Dongfeng approached Guo Tailai.
Apparently, Gao was always the one who had access to Guo Tailai's studio. Therefore, after being confirmed by the on-site personnel of the Central Security Bureau, Mr. Gao entered the conference room of Guo Tailai's studio.
Seeing Guo Tailai, Mr. Gao just stared at Guo Tai without saying a word. Guo Tailai was baffled by being watched for a while, he didn't seem to have done anything to make Mr. Gao unhappy recently, right? But since Mr. Gao didn't speak, Guo Tailai didn't speak either, so he just sat with Mr. Gao, eating some butter biscuits and drinking some water from time to time.
"Fatty, do you know the sales volume of Zhan Shield?" When Guo Tailai was a little impatient, Mr. Gao opened his mouth, and the first time he opened his mouth, he asked.
"I don't know!" Guo Tailai replied honestly.
"After one year, there are already more than 2,000 units." Mr. Gao looked at Guo Tailai expressionlessly and said, "I believe that after the film you invested in is released, there will be an explosive growth."
Guo Tailai didn't understand what Mr. Gao meant by this, he couldn't see sadness or joy, so was he happy or unhappy? Satisfied or dissatisfied with sales?
"The average price of this car is 500,000 U.S. dollars!" Mr. Gao continued: "One year's order is worth 1 billion U.S. dollars."
"Is that a lot? Or not a lot?" Guo Tailai was still not sure what Mr. Gao meant, and tentatively asked.
One billion a year is really not much to Guo Tailai, it is just the amount of war money that Lin Jiayi has made in the past few months. Maybe Mr. Gao is dissatisfied?
"Many!" Mr. Gao finally expressed his attitude: "The whole company is very satisfied. This car has helped us open up the international market and let us establish a brand image of luxury SUV in the world. Thank you very much."
call! Guo Tailai let out a long breath, which startled me a lot. I thought I was very dissatisfied with this model!
"Fatty, do you know which model our Huaxia's first car is?" Mr. Gao's eyes were full of eagerness at the moment.
"Dongfeng CA71!" Guo Tailai still knew this, and quickly replied: "It is produced by FAW, the predecessor of Hongqi sedan."
After answering, Guo Tailai felt strange, why is the car produced by FAW called Dongfeng brand? Well, it seems that the predecessor of Dongfeng, the Second Automobile Works, has not yet been seen!
"It's good if you know." Mr. Gao seemed to save some time for explanation, and suddenly asked Guo Tailai: "Tell me, can we get or buy the Dongfeng Jinlong logo from FAW?"
"Ah?" Hearing this question, Guo Tailai was shocked. Get the logo of Dongfeng Jinlong from FAW? is it possible?
"Dongfeng lacks an international high-end brand image!" Mr. Gao looked at Guo Tailai and said eagerly: "We already have models that can carry it, but the simple Dongfeng brand is not enough to show the high-end image of the car."
Guo Tailai instantly understood what Mr. Gao meant. Now the image and reputation of high-end off-road vehicles have been established, but the brand is still a Dongfeng brand that shares military vehicles. Therefore, Dongfeng Group also feels that it needs a high-end brand to promote to the outside world. . So is there anything more suitable in terms of name than the golden dragon, and is there more tempting to the people of Dongfeng Group?
"Uncle Gao." It's clear, but Guo Tailai felt that he couldn't help: "You have to discuss this with FAW, and you have to communicate with the higher-level department. Whether it's commercial or administrative means, I can't help you!"
"You can do it!" Mr. Gao said to Guo Tailai with certainty.
Guo Tailai spread out his hands directly, can he decide this matter? impossible!
"As long as there is another high-end car that can be sold around the world." President Gao didn't hold back, and directly stated his plan: "I have reason to have the confidence to go to FAW to negotiate with the higher-level department."
"The car model is simple." Guo Tailai didn't think it would be of much help, so he shook his head directly and said, "But that is the history of the Hongqi brand. How can it be possible to show the history that is kept in the museum? And the logo of the Golden Dragon , and there may be some sayings such as symbols of royal power. Difficult!"
"There are models, right?" Mr. Gao's eyes lit up all of a sudden, and he confirmed to Guo Tailai.
"There are high-end luxury SUVs!" Guo Tailai said with certainty. But he only limited the models to SUVs. He didn't want to see Hongqi and Dongfeng compete with each other in the same car field, hurting the peace.
"That's easy!" Mr. Gao slapped the table excitedly: "It's fine with your words!"
Mr. Gao left happily, leaving Guo Tailai speechless. This is inexplicable, but another model was promised? It seems that I didn't agree, and I didn't sign the contract, right?
do not care! Anyway, Guo Tailai is not optimistic about Mr. Gao's move to "snatch" the car logo. This matter must be messed up between the FAW and the Second Automobile Works and the higher authorities, and has little to do with Guo Tailai, so let's do what we should do!
For example, while Little Finn is in the Treasure Ship Hotel, go back and trick him into buying a luxury private submarine?
