v3 Chapter 1175： Tiangong car is on fire! (1/2)
After extensive publicity, car dealers or enthusiasts from all over the world came to participate in the Geneva International Motor Show. As for tourists from other European countries, there are more tourists. After all, in Europe with interconnected railways, only a few tourists from other countries come to Switzerland. Hours are enough.
Early in the morning, a large number of visitors waiting to enter the exhibition center gathered at the entrance of the Palestine International Exhibition Center.
Maybe I know that everyone will be impatient after waiting for a long time. The protagonist is a car in the exhibition hall.
Therefore, the opening ceremony of the Geneva International Motor Show did not take a long time, only half an hour before and after.
This time, the Geneva International Auto Show is very grand. The world's top ten auto companies, General Motors, Ford, Volkswagen, Chrysler, Rolls Royce, Toyota, etc. are all here.
According to statistics, in this international auto show, there are 186 auto companies from 37 countries around the world, bringing 716 cars to the exhibition, and the data is more than the previous year.
After the opening ceremony, visitors lined up to enter the exhibition center through the security check.
The visitors who entered were immediately attracted by the new cars of the top ten car companies such as Rolls-Royce, Volkswagen, and General Motors. The booths of each car company were crowded with people, admiring the beauty of the cars as well. Car model.
At this time, in the H exhibition area, which is the farthest from the gate.
Chen Caijun and a group of fifteen people, all dressed in decent formal attire, await the arrival of visitors with the best mental appearance.
The six cars brought by Tiangong Automobile Group are destined to attract attention.
Although the visitors have not yet arrived, the colleagues in the surrounding exhibition area have been attracted by the cars of Tiangong Automobile Group.
Feeling the probing gaze projected from the colleagues around him, the corner of Chen Caijun's mouth was curved.
He looked at the six brand new cars quietly placed around him, and secretly said to himself: ”Success is absolutely ours! Tiangong Motors shines in Geneva after all!”
”Hmm!”
He coughed slightly, and after attracting the attention of all the employees, he said in a deep voice: ”Everyone cheer up, wait for the visitors to come, don't panic, and follow the division of labor yesterday.”
”Yes!”
The employees subconsciously raised their heads and raised their chests and responded in unison.
The first highlight moment is destined to belong to the most central area of those large car companies that have a huge reputation on a global scale.
After waiting for a long time, scattered visitors went to other exhibition areas, and other exhibition areas began to gain popularity.
……
Paul Carr is an American, and he was an apprentice in a car repair shop early from a poor family. And he is not lacking in the spirit of hard work, he just started as a car mechanic, accumulating capital step by step, and successfully opened an automobile trading company five years ago, completing the gorgeous turn from worker to boss.
After five years of hard work, his Paul Carr Automobile Trading Co., Ltd. has also gained a certain reputation in Illinois. It can sell more than 400 cars a year and has an annual turnover of more than 5 million US dollars!
He used to act as an agent for the sales of American auto brands such as General Motors and Ford.
But in the past two years, because of the second oil crisis, gasoline prices have risen, and the US economy has not improved, and the lives of the American people have become more and more difficult.
But American cars are notoriously high fuel consumption, and the American people cannot afford to refuel.
At this time, the island country’s Toyota, Nissan and other car companies formed a group to attack the North American market. The island country’s car is not as heavy as the American car, and the safety factor is not necessarily as high as that of the American car of the same level, but it has the biggest advantage, that is, fuel economy!
Therefore, the market share of island cars in the US market has been increasing.
The rise of the Rolls-Royce Motor Group in the UK has also changed its appearance. Many brands and models have become fuel-efficient, and they are also conquering the US market.
Foreign cars are constantly squeezing the market of domestic auto companies in the United States, grabbing cakes, and making life difficult for auto trade companies such as Paul Carr who sell local cars as an agent.
But Paul Carr is not a rigid person, and he has no national sentiments. In his eyes, the dollar is the largest.
Therefore, with a strong sense of crisis, he intends to adjust his direction to see if he can find a car with the potential to replace GM and Ford.
And once a year, the Geneva International Motor Show in Switzerland, known as the ”New Sacred Land”, has become the best platform for him to find his goals.
Walking around, he saw many new cars from auto companies, but none of them surprised him.
It was just when he walked to the H exhibition area and was about to turn around and return, a red roadster and three strangely shaped cars not far away aroused his interest.
There is a sports car in H area?
This red convertible sports car is the first sports car he saw in the H exhibition area!
Which small car is ready to enter the super money-burning sports car field?
”Tiangong Automobile?”
After Paul Carr approached, he looked at the car company's name on the booth, and he said it out.
Very strange!
Paul Carr can be sure that this is a car company that he has never heard of. Looking at the yellow skin of these employees, you can see that this is a car company from Asia, and it must be a small brand.
He couldn't help but feel disappointed.
”This gentleman, welcome to visit our Tiangong Automobile. I am the president of Tiangong Automobile. This is our company's business card.”
The temperament of a successful person in Paul Carr caught Chen Caijun's attention, and he walked over and smiled and handed out his business card.
turned out to be the president of a company!
Paul Carr was taken aback, smiled and took the business card.
Regardless of whether it is a new car company, it is eligible to come here to participate in the exhibition. This Tiangong Automobile Group must be far ahead of his Paul Carl Automobile Trading Company, and Chen Caijun, as the president, is definitely above him.
He looked at the business card, then stuffed it into his pocket, and asked with a smile: ”President Chen, my name is Paul Carl, from an automobile trade company in the United States, can you introduce your new car to me?”
”Of course, this is my pleasure!”
Knowing that Paul Carr is a member of an automobile trade company, Chen Caijun's eyes are brighter and his smile is more than three-pointers, and he directly leads him to the red sports car.
”Mr. Paul Carr, this car is named Fengshen I. It is the first sports car designed and produced by our company. The body size is 3960×1650×1230 (mm), the wheelbase is 2275mm, and the curb weight is 950 kg. Power part It is equipped with a Rolls-Royce 1.6-liter inline four-cylinder naturally aspirated engine with a maximum power of 115 horsepower and a peak torque of 135 N/m. With a 5-speed manual transmission, the front-rear drive layout is accelerated from 0-100km/h in 8.7 seconds. The top speed is 202km/h......”
As Chen Caijun continued to introduce the parameters of the Fengshen generation, the smile on Paul Carr, who was very familiar with cars, disappeared, he was greatly disappointed, and his impression of Tiangong Automobile was also lost by three points.
Although this Aeolus generation is very eye-catching, it is absolutely cool when it is driven out, but with these performances, this sports car is destined to be garbage in the sports car industry.
is really a small car company that does not know the heights of the sky!
The change in Paul Carr’s expression was seen by Chen Caijun, but as long as Paul Carr did not leave, he would not be anxious.
For this Fengshen generation, the company specifically discussed the marketing strategy, which can be summed up in one sentence-first suppress and then raise, and give customers the deepest impression with huge contrast.
As long as you have an impression, you have taken the most critical step for success!
”President Chen, this sports car of your company may not be welcomed by the market.”
Paul Carr was a little uncomfortable, but he didn't want to offend anyone, saying in a joking tone.
”This is not necessarily true!”
Chen Caijun shook his head confidently and said.
