Chapter 894: Export to Domestic Sales
Back at the hotel, Zhao Yanan helped Chen Changliu take off his coat and asked curiously:
"Boss, what do you want that information for? Could it be........."
Enjoying the meticulous care of Zhao Yanan and Li Sisi, this tiring journey made him feel very energetic.
Before Zhao Yanan finished speaking, he pinched Zhao Yanan's nose, interrupted her and asked Li Sisi:
"Do you know what export-to-domestic sales means?"
Hearing Chen Changliu ask this question, Li Sisi certainly didn't think that Chen Changliu was asking the literal meaning.
From a literal point of view, export-to-domestic sales refers to products that were originally intended to be exported abroad, but due to various reasons (such as trade barriers, changes in national policies, changes in relations between the country and foreign countries, etc.), they cannot be exported to the international market. In order to reduce losses, manufacturers or merchants sell the goods in their own country.
She thought for a while and said:
"You mean, just like China manufacturing toilet lids for Sakura Country, putting a label on it and it becomes a product that many people are scrambling to buy.
If our electric buses are sold abroad, especially in countries like Europe, then when they spread to China, the current dilemma of electric buses will be different.
Just like our mobile phones, it is precisely because they are popular abroad that we can gain a foothold in China at the fastest speed..."
Looking at Li Sisi's serious analysis, Chen Changliu and Zhao Yanan nodded with satisfaction. The girl has made good progress in the past year or so.
Although she can't compare with the previous two Ke Meng and Zhao Yanan, she is more than enough to be Chen Changliu's secretary.
Just as Li Sisi analyzed, this is what Chen Changliu's idea in the car meant.
The electric buses of the Zhonghuajia Automobile Industry subsidiary have been on the market for half a year, although Jingjiang City, Guangnan City and some other cities in Lingxi have placed orders.
But this is far from enough. The total orders have not exceeded 80 vehicles.
The order volume is not enough, and the acceptance is not high, especially because the price of electric buses is at least double that of fuel buses, which makes local governments reluctant to invest. This is also the dilemma of electric buses.
So when Chen Changliu saw the buses shuttling on the street just now, he thought of this idea.
Before the electric family sedan of Moudi in his previous life became popular, his electric buses and public buses had been put into use in many countries around the world.
Before he was reborn, Moudi's electric buses and public buses had been delivered to more than 80,000 vehicles worldwide.
Calculated at 1 million per unit, that is more than 80 billion in sales.
It's not that he didn't think about it before, but the main reason was that he believed too much that the influence of Zhonghuajia Technology Co., Ltd. in China and the investment in various places could digest the production of less than 1,000 units a year of Zhonghuajia.
As long as its own electric buses can be sold in Europe and operated, it will definitely attract domestic recognition of electric buses.
There is no way, Zhonghuajia makes domestic mobile phone consumers not so blindly believe in foreign brands, and makes many people believe that domestic mobile phone brands can also produce good mobile phones.
But other industries are not doing well. The inherent impressions accumulated over the past few decades cannot be eliminated so quickly.
Even though Zhonghuajia's mobile phones are better looking and more powerful than Nokia's, Nokia is still the top brand in domestic mobile phone sales.
Even though Zhonghuajia is narrowing the gap with Nokia, overall, foreign brands still account for more than half of the mobile phone sales.
Zhonghuajia is doing very well to achieve this step.
Seeing Chen Changliu and Zhao Yanan nodding from time to time, Li Sisi couldn't help but feel satisfied. It seems that her analysis is correct.
"Hehe, boss, director, have I made great progress? Is there any reward?"
Looking at Li Sisi with a cute and naughty face, Zhao Yanan and Chen Changliu both laughed.
"Sure, Sisi, I'll give you the boss tonight and let him reward you for not being able to get up tomorrow, how about it?"
Hearing Zhao Yanan's ridicule, Li Sisi couldn't help but think of a certain picture, her face was slightly red, but she immediately rushed to Zhao Yanan to settle accounts with her.
Looking at the two secretaries who were playing non-stop, and the dazzling flashes that flashed from time to time during the tug of war, Chen Changliu was drooling a little.
When he invited the administrator of the European region to have dinner and return to the hotel in the evening, Chen Changliu sat on the sofa with a document and read it seriously.
This is the data he asked the head of the European region to collect on the proportion of Europeans who travel by bus station, with details for each country.
And the proportion of other public transportation, etc. was also made!
It can be said that this data is very solid, and Chen Changliu is very satisfied. This is the working style of the employees of the Flower Planting Family.
Chen Changliu read it for more than an hour before finishing it. In general, 3/4 of Europeans will use public transportation.
And buses account for more than 50% of public transportation, compared with Europe, China only has 20%.
After reading these materials, Chen Changliu fell into deep thought, and Zhao Yanan and Li Sisi did not disturb him, but quietly did their own things on the side.
As the director and secretary of Chen Changliu's general manager's office, they also have a lot to do.
Suddenly, Chen Changliu said to Zhao Yanan:
"Notify Chen Yanfeng and ask him to come to me as quickly as possible..."
When Chen Yanfeng received the notification, he was driving an electric taxi on the streets of Jingjiang City. This was a test car and he was testing it himself.
In the past few months, the citizens of Jingjiang have already seen such cars, but everyone is a little curious.
Although the exterior of the car is still covered with something, and it is impossible to see the whole picture of the car, the shape alone is very attractive, because the lines and shape are much better than the mainstream cars running on the road now.
However, Jingjiang City has too little influence, and this news has not been spread, and only the citizens of this city know about it.
Chen Yanfeng asked his secretary with some doubts:
"You said that the boss asked me to fly to Europe as quickly as possible to find him? Did he say what it was?"
"No, Director Zhao didn't say it, he just said that you should fly there as quickly as possible, and the boss will find it!
Mr. Chen, we..."
Chen Yanfeng, who was a little confused just now, heard that it was Zhao Yanan who asked him to fly there as quickly as possible, and his face immediately became serious.
"What do you mean by we? Book a plane ticket immediately, the sooner the better!"
After instructing the secretary, he handed the car to the test driver, made a phone call to inform Pei Haidong and other senior executives, and then went home to pack up his things immediately.
He is an old man in the flower-growing family. He knows Chen Changliu's work style too well. Although he is very strict, he will not let him fly over thousands of miles at the fastest speed for no reason.
That can only mean that there is something very important.
