Chapter 909: Finely Decorated and Rough Housing

On March 1, Chen Changliu led a team to Jingjiang City to participate in the delivery ceremony of the flower grower's first pure electric taxi h8.

Chen Yanfeng is not here and has already taken the pure electric bus and pure electric bus to Europe to participate in the auto show.

This car delivery ceremony was very grand, with not only a stage, but also various festive decorations.

These were not done by flower growers, but by the Jingjiang Municipal Government. This handover ceremony was not without reporters like the original handover of the pure electric bus.

Not only local and Lingxi reporters, but also reporters from the main station came. The Jingjiang Municipal Government also invited many automotive media, automotive magazines and other related personnel to come.

The only purpose is to make this handover ceremony more grand, so as to let the outside world see the Jingjiang Municipal Government's determination to retain the green mountains and green waters, and at the same time develop the tourism industry in Jingjiang City.

And these reporters are now test driving and experiencing the driving experience of this pure electric taxi at the test track.

Yes, after careful consideration, Chen Changliu finally decided not to wait for policy subsidies. Flower growers can afford this.

Because sometimes half a year is crucial for a company. Now that Zhonghuajia’s pure electric taxi is on the market, it is the first domestic car company to mass-produce electric vehicles.

Who knows what will happen in half a year. After all, Chen Changliu knows that Di is also researching new energy electric vehicles. Now the timeline has changed. He can't guarantee whether Di will suddenly come out and announce the launch of its pure electric vehicle. .

In the end, the flower grower set the price of the pure electric taxi at 250,000. It can be said that the flower grower basically made no money, but still lost money. After all, the various research and development expenses, costs of each link, etc. cannot be recovered.

Just like the car companies of later generations, the average profit of a car is less than 10,000 yuan, but the difference between the ex-factory cost price and the sales price is not just 10,000 yuan, but more than 10,000 yuan.

The reason why these car companies earn less than 10,000 yuan per car on average is that it is far more than 10,000 yuan, because there are too many expenses incurred for each car sold.

Putting aside R&D expenses and employee salaries, the logistics cost alone depends on the transportation distance. It can be as low as 1,800, or as much as 1,000 or 2,000, which is normal.

Bicycle marketing and advertising expenses are also a big part of the equation. The mainstream advertising expenses spent by car companies on each vehicle sold are more than 3,000 to 5,000 yuan.

There are even higher ones, some so-called new forces in later generations.

It was once revealed that the advertising fee for a certain brand of car in a certain country can reach 710,000 for every bicycle sold.

Therefore, the flower grower's car with a raw material cost of 230,000 was only sold for 250,000, which was a loss for the flower grower. Even if it was not advertised on the market, it was directly supplied to the taxi company, saving these advertising fees.

But they are still losing money. If some promised after-sales services are added, then the manpower and material resources spent on these plus all other link costs, the flower grower will lose at least 20,000 yuan per car.

But Chen Changliu decided not to wait. After all, in order to promote the original time and space, some taxi drivers could use it for free. Chen Changliu's situation would not be that small.

In the conference room of Jingjiang Factory, Chen Changliu, Feng Xiao, Liu Yang, Pei Haidong and others were all there, waiting for the relevant leaders to arrive.

"Mr. Liu and Mr. Pei, our three-electricity warranty for taxis is three years or 100,000 kilometers, which is a great test for our technology.

Therefore, it depends on you whether we will spend more manpower and financial resources on after-sales service and whether we will lose more money in the future.

Of course, what I say here is not to remind you to cover the lid.

It’s not scary to have problems. What’s scary is that if we suppress this kind of thing in order to cover it up, then we will have no room for progress..."

After Chen Changliu sounded the alarm to the management again, a secretary came over to remind him that the leader would be arriving in five minutes.

Chen Changliu looked at the time and was a little surprised. It was still 30 minutes before the originally scheduled delivery ceremony. Why did the leader arrive so early? He was originally scheduled to arrive 15 minutes in advance.

When Chen Changliu took the management to greet the leaders, he discovered that the leaders were not Jingjiang No. 1 and 2, but Lingxi No. 4.

However, this was not the first time that Chen Changliu and the others had dealt with him. They were all old acquaintances. Chen Changliu said with a wry smile:

"Leader, you are setting an ambush for us without notifying us in advance!"

"Hahaha, Mr. Chen, I originally had other arrangements, but when I heard that they test-drove your pure electric taxi, they were so blown away that your car was blown up to the sky.

So I came over temporarily to take a look. It's still some time before your car delivery ceremony. How about you take me there and let me take a test drive? "

How could Chen Changliu refuse this request? A large group of people got on the four-wheel electric sightseeing car produced and used by themselves in the Jingjiang factory park.

It didn't take long for them to arrive at the dedicated test track of the Jingjiang factory. The media reporters who were testing the car at the scene saw a large number of people approaching. After a closer look, the government leaders could not recognize them, but they definitely recognized Chen Changliu and Feng Xiao. They all looked up. passed.

"Hello, Mr. Chen, I am a reporter from a certain car magazine. I just test drove your pure electric taxi. I can only say that the control and driving experience are indeed very good.

But I also have a few questions I would like to ask. "

"Mr. Chen, I am..."

Looking at this scene, Lingxi No. 4 and Jingjiang Jiang No. 1 and 2 were not angry, because they knew that their test drive was impromptu and few people at the scene could recognize them.

Moreover, Chen Changliu's fame would not do any harm to Lingxi and Jingjiang, because the flower growers have factories in Jingjiang and Lingnan City.

"Everyone, the leaders are here to guide the work. I will take them to test drive the car now. If you have any questions about the product, you can ask Pei Haidong, the chief engineer of our automobile industry subsidiary.

I'll excuse you for a moment, I'm sorry! "

As he spoke, under the pityful looks of the reporters, he led the three leaders into a prepared test car.

Chen Changliu drove the car himself, Lingxi No. 4 sat in the passenger seat, and the two bosses from Jingjiang sat in the back seat. After all, they were here to test drive, and there were not so many rules.

As soon as I got in the car, the cool air conditioner kept the hot temperature out of the car.

Lingnan 4 took a closer look at the interior. After Chen Changliu introduced its functions, he couldn't help but sigh:

"Xiao Chen, your car has a very fashionable appearance, much prettier than Santana.

And the interior of this car is a fine decoration and a rough room! "
