Chapter 201: Preparing to Make Money (2)

"Good. Song Guoyuan raised the teacup at Fang Yuan, and laughed after drinking it all.

Song Guoyuan drank the apprenticeship tea, which was regarded as completing the entire apprenticeship ceremony, and officially recognized Fang Yuan as his disciple.

Everyone let out a long breath, no longer worried about the little episode that appeared just now, but Sun Yanming asked Song Guoyuan a little unpleasantly: "Did you take the wrong medicine just now?" At the beginning, he suddenly said to ask Fang Yuan a question, and now he doesn't ask again before he can answer?"

Song Guoyuan glanced up at Sun Yanming, then turned his head to look at Fang Yuan, but still explained: "I just said that the means of making money in the preparation are testing Fang Yuan's personality, and now that I have the answer I want, what are I bothering to ask?"

What Song Guoyuan said was in a fog, Liu Liang and the others didn't understand what was going on at all, and they all looked at Song Guoyuan in confusion and didn't know what he meant.

Sun Yanming is old and refined, and suddenly understood Song Guoyuan's thoughts: Song Guoyuan was cheated by the last apprentice Wang Jialiang, and now in order not to be cheated for the second time, the apprentice is the first to pay attention to character, and then to consider talent or something.

Sun Yan told Song Guoyuan the truth about Fang Yuan's situation early tomorrow, Song Guoyuan also had contact with Fang Yuan, and liked his character very much, knowing that Fang Yuan was a real person, steady in handling things, and valuing love and righteousness, he would never do that kind of thing to bully teachers and destroy ancestors.

However, Song Guoyuan was scared of the trap, and had the idea of testing Fang Yuan, if Fang Yuan would do whatever it took to make money, it would prove that he was no better, and Song Guoyuan didn't want to be fooled a second time.

When Song Guoyuan just said the tricks and deception methods in the maintenance and maintenance, he had been observing Fang Yuan's reaction, if he was very interested, it would cause Song Guoyuan to break the teacup on the spot and go crazy, not to mention the matter of apprenticeship, and he would also scold everyone out.

Sun Yanming looked at Fang Yuan, he knew Fang Yuan too well, because Fang Yuan's performance just now was not shocked, and he seemed to be very disgusted by what Song Guoyuan said about deceiving people, at least he looked very disdainful.

Sun Yanming estimated that his brother-in-law deduced from such a little detail that Fang Yuan was trustworthy.

Fang Yuan took the teacup handed by Song Guoyuan with both hands, and stood respectfully next to the Taishi chair, he also guessed his master's thoughts, and secretly shouted in his heart.

Fang Yuan really didn't look down on these alternative ways of making money in maintenance, not that he was noble, not that he disdained to use them, but that he thought that the current business environment was very different from before.

In the 80s and 90s, fakes were rampant in China, not to mention anything else, but to say that small shops selling daily necessities, which did not have fake cigarettes and fake alcohol?

Industrial salt is passed off as edible salt, and there is less sand mixed in rice?

And now?

The whole of China is in a situation of oversupply, e-commerce is more developed, from home appliances to oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, people's choice is very large, if you want to buy from a physical store or on the Internet, you can still starve to death if you leave the supermarket at the door?

So now the big and small supermarkets in the community sell fake cigarettes and fake alcohol again?

Not only will it be spurned by neighbors, but it is estimated that it will be reported in less than half an hour, and the industrial and commercial tax will come to inspect it.

Fang Yuan now has second-hand car maintenance skills, of course, he knows some of the tricks in maintenance, but the current business environment forces him not to use it, and he doesn't want to use it, and he is more willing to attract repeat customers through honest business.

Fang Yuan was a little distracted, and Sun Yanming next to him greeted everyone with a smile: "Let's go, let's go to the apprenticeship banquet." ”

"Okay. Everyone gathered around Sun Yanming and Song Guoyuan out of the gate and walked towards the parking lot of Tianhong second-hand car market.

Fang Yuan's Audi A4allroad and Sun Yanming's Octavia station wagon have strong loading capacity, and the seven people of Zhenghong Car Dealership plus Song Guoyuan are more than enough to sit on.

Fang Yuan, Song Guoyuan, Sun Yanming and Liu Liang sat on the Audi A4allroad, and went out of the parking lot first, Wang Hu drove the Octavia station wagon to follow closely behind, heading towards the hotel that had already been booked.

Sun Yanming and Song Guoyuan sat in the back row, Song Guoyuan looked around the interior of the Audi A4allroad, and said: "This car has a lot of space, comfortable seats, and a stable chassis, but the power is a little ...... when it starts."

Fang Yuan stared intently ahead, did not look back, and did not talk, but he thought that his master really had two brushes, and he said the characteristics of the Audi A4allroad in a few simple words.

"Of course, the landing ...... that year" Sun Yanming couldn't remember the landing price of this Audi A4allroad for a while, and lazily asked Fang Yuan in front of him, "How much does this Audi A4allroad cost?"

Fang Yuan didn't think about it, as if all the data was imprinted in his mind, and immediately replied: "The configuration of this Audi A4allroad is not high, and it landed 429,600 that year." ”

"Is the price so accurate?" Fang Yuan said the price of this Audi A4allroad, and his amazing performance showed Song Guoyuan's face, he instantly stared at the apprentice in front of him with wide eyes, "Come, tell me about the basic parameters of this car." ”

"This is an Audi A42017 45TFSI allroad quattro fashionable, 4750 mm long, 1842 mm wide...... Fang Yuan knew that the master was testing himself, he almost at the same time as Song Guoyuan's voice landed, he reported the size data of this Audi A4allroad, engine, gearbox model, optional configuration, and the smoothness of the recitation as if reading according to the data.

"Solid basic skills and proficient business. Song Guoyuan stared at his apprentice with a smile, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, he was so satisfied with Fang Yuan's performance.

No wonder Song Guoyuan is so happy, because in the automotive industry, if a person originally did auto repair, then he wants to change careers to do car appraisal, second-hand car appraisal will have a great advantage, after all, opening a company is not a good hall, they are not willing to train a rookie from scratch, and even when recruiting appraisers, clearly list the conditions must understand auto repair.

In the same way, if Fang Yuan wants to learn car maintenance, even modification, and second-hand car identification, if he doesn't know many models, doesn't know the detailed parameters, and doesn't know the performance of the car, even if he is very smart and willing to work hard to learn, the road will be very long in the future.

Fang Yuan answered his two questions easily and comfortably, revealing a solid foundation, it would be easy to learn car maintenance appraisal and so on, Song Guoyuan felt that he had picked up a treasure, of course he was happy.

"The basic parameter information of our car dealership is one centimeter thick, and only Fang Yuan can memorize it word for word, and others can't. Speaking of Fang Yuan's strong ability, Liu Liang was extremely proud of his brothers, and after showing off Fang Yuan's nickname to Song Guoyuan, he turned to look at Fang Yuan's handsome face, and sighed in his heart: He is really a person who can eat by his appearance, but he prefers to choose talented and successful people.

"Can you memorize the one-centimeter-thick basic parameter data?" Song Guoyuan gasped in shock, looking at the young Fang Yuan in front of him, his body trembled slightly, because he knew so many models, so many boring data, how much perseverance did it take to memorize it accurately?

"Fang Yuan, tell me why you say 'drive a BMW and take a Mercedes-Benz'. Song Guoyuan felt that the two questions he had just asked belonged to very basic knowledge, and he wanted to test his apprentice again, and he was very curious about his true strength in the end.

Fang Yuan smiled slightly, and said in a voice unhurriedly: "I think among the top three BBAs in Germany, BMW and Mercedes-Benz are the two car companies with the most distinctive personalities......"

According to Fang Yuan, BMW is a sports student who sweats every day in the playground, and the hard work day after day has achieved excellent results in the chassis, steering system, powertrain, electronic stability program, etc., even if there are flaws such as burning engine oil and leaking oil, it cannot stop it from moving towards the goal of ultimate driving pleasure.

Comfortable, luxury is the label of Mercedes-Benz, it is like a gentle personality and good appearance of Bai Fumei, not as arrogant as BMW, easy to drive is her approachable capital, no matter young or old, both men and women like her very much.

Therefore, among the top three German BBAs, Mercedes-Benz has the highest value retention rate and is more popular.

What about BMW?

The value retention rate is not as good as Nissan, Mazda, Volkswagen, and Mitsubishi, ranking eighth with a value retention rate of 61.4%, which is better than Audi.

Song Guoyuan is not as good as the other three people in the car in terms of second-hand car sales, Sun Yanming and Liu Liang understand what Fang Yuan means, especially Sun Yanming, as an old man who has been immersed in the second-hand car industry for one or two decades, he knows that the "average" value retention rate of "all models" within three years of car age, Mercedes-Benz ranks behind Toyota and Honda with 68.2%, ranking third, and even Mercedes-Benz G, Mercedes-Benz E and other models with a high retention rate comparable to Toyota and Honda.

With Sun Yanming proving the accuracy of Fang Yuan's judgment, Song Guoyuan gave Fang Yuan an approving smile, but he didn't say anything, meaning that he should continue to speak.

"People often say that there is no love for no reason, and there is no hate for no reason, both men and women of all ages love Mercedes-Benz because of its luxury and comfort, after all, not everyone wants sharp handling, the ultimate cut of silky smooth. ”

Fang Yuan introduced the luxury and comfort of Mercedes-Benz and said that Mercedes-Benz has a very long history as a top luxury car, first of all, it attaches great importance to the comfort of the suspension system.

Mercedes-Benz launched the Mercedes-Benz 220 in 1951 with independent front and rear suspension, and also added a large number of rubber liners to the chassis to filter and cushion the noise and vibration from the chassis transmission.

In 1957, the Cadillac Eldorad Brougham was the world's first production model to use air suspension, but it was the Mercedes-Benz 300SE and 600 models that really played the air suspension technology to perfection, and it was the Mercedes-Benz 300SE and 600 models that were no longer criticized, five years before the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow.

In addition to sparing no effort to develop various comfortable suspension technologies on top models, Mercedes-Benz is also innovative in the suspension of low-end models.

For example, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class did not completely copy the MacPherson suspension, but adopted a similar approach to BMW, making it an improvement to the MacPherson suspension, making it a suspension system between MacPherson and multi-link, which can improve the stability of the front wheels when driving.

Sound insulation and noise reduction are also an aspect that greatly affects luxury comfort.

In order to solve the wind noise at high speeds, Mercedes-Benz established the first wind tunnel laboratory in the automotive industry in the thirties of the last century.

In 2008, Mercedes-Benz invested another 75 million euros and spent five years to establish the world's top aerodynamics-acoustic wind tunnel laboratory in Sindelfingen, Germany.

The strength of this aerodynamic-acoustic wind tunnel laboratory is that its background noise is so small that at wind speeds of 140 kilometers per hour, the noise of the air flow is barely audible, like a person standing in the middle of a Category 13 typhoon with almost no wind in his ears.

With such strong hardware support, the noise control of the Mercedes-Benz C-Class is even slightly stronger than that of the higher-level BMW 5 Series, not to mention the Mercedes-Benz CLA, E-Class, S-Class and other models with less wind resistance.

In terms of interior comfort, Mercedes-Benz's configuration is also very advanced, Mercedes-Benz 200 is the first European model to install a warm air blower, that is, a warm air conditioner, which was definitely a big selling point at the time.

The Mercedes-Benz 220A, which is later than the Mercedes-Benz 200, has improved the air conditioning system, allowing the driver and passengers to adjust the air volume independently, which is equivalent to a simplified version of the zonal air conditioning.

......

Comfortable seats, fragrance system, IWC on the center console, suspension system, sound insulation and noise reduction, etc., Fang Yuan spoke clearly, so that Song Guoyuan and the three of them had a clear understanding of the luxury and comfort of Mercedes-Benz.

What amazed the three of them even more was that Fang Yuan had a very thorough understanding of the models, and was familiar with all kinds of data and various automobile historical events.

"Cow, awesome. Being able to accept Fang Yuan as an apprentice, Song Guoyuan was so excited, he looked at Sun Yanming and asked with great emotion, "Fang Yuan is so powerful, the sales must be very high." ”

"Of course. Sun Yanming raised his head with great pride, and asked Song Guoyuan with an arrogant face, "Do you guess how many cars Fang Yuan has sold since the beginning of the month until now, and how many sales have been completed?"

Song Guoyuan looked at Sun Yanming's smug appearance, and sighed in his heart, although he has changed his career to collect rags over the years, he still has a little understanding of the sales of car dealers.

Even if it is the peak sales season, ordinary car dealers can buy ten cars a month, which is already very diligent, very lucky, and the road is very wild, could it be that Fang Yuan can reach the terrifying data of one car a day in these eight days?

Song Guoyuan is not an outsider, Sun Yanming was relieved to boldly say the data of his car dealership, but he first snorted coldly, looked at his brother-in-law with disdain, and then stretched out four fingers of his right hand in front of him, and then curled back the four fingers and stretched out the index finger of his right hand alone.

Song Guoyuan and Liu Liang were stunned for a moment, and their faces that were smiling just now instantly stiffened, and the two of them had incredible expressions, and they swallowed a mouthful of saliva in unison, unable to believe their eyes.

"Forty-one, eight days, forty-one?" Song Guoyuan and Liu Liang screamed, and there was a dead silence in the car, and after three seconds, the two of them completely exploded after coming back to their senses.

Liu Liang had seen Fang Yuan's shocking sales methods, and slowly recovered after the shock, but Song Guoyuan was different, he was stunned at the moment, and even suspected that he was dazzled just now and saw Sun Yanming's gesture wrong.

Song Guoyuan shook Sun Yanming's head like a rattle, and he didn't dare to admit it: "Impossible, impossible, he sells more than a car dealership?" ”

"What you haven't seen with your own eyes isn't the truth? You haven't seen the outbreak of World War II, the Japanese army and the German army surrendered, you haven't seen the Long March rocket launched, and our satellites have also been launched into the sky......" Sun Yanming pouted, with a posture that I knew this way around, "What good is it for me to lie to you?"

Song Guoyuan's eyes lit up, and he felt that what Sun Yanming said was right, he really had no need to deceive himself, and if he wanted to pretend, he would not pretend in front of him.

Finding that Song Guoyuan turned around and stared at Fang Yuan, who was driving in front of him, his old face was like neon, blue for a while, white for a while, and changed several colors in an instant, Sun Yanming was even more proud: "Let me tell you, as of five o'clock in the evening, Fang Yuan has sold a total of 41 cars in the eight days at the beginning of the month, with a total sales of 4,345,800 yuan Huaxia coins, and his commission has also reached a terrifying 86,916 yuan."

Especially from the third day, Fang Yuan sold at least five cars a day, and even reached seven cars on some two days.

What's more, as long as it is the car sold by Fangyuan, the satisfaction has reached 100%, and no customer has asked to return the car. ”

"It's so amazing, 100% satisfied, it's a god. When Song Guoyuan heard Sun Yanming's words clearly, he was even more surprised, his body began to tremble slightly, his hands covered his chest, there were no extra movements, and a pair of eyes slowly grew from oval to oval, little by little, and finally stared round.

Sun Yanming, who was so happy with sales against the sky, had a crooked nose, and when he saw Liu Liang's envious eyes full of little stars, he began to praise again: "Liu Liang, they can open orders almost every day these days, and their sales can also be." ”

Song Guoyuan let out a long breath, he was completely overwhelmed by Sun Yanming's momentum, and asked weakly: "Fang Yuan's sales have exploded, and the performance of your store should not be at the bottom anymore, right?"

Although there is no Zhenghong car dealership on the sales list of the entire Zhenghong Group, we are now the invisible number one. Sun Yan understood Song Guoyuan's glance, and said very proudly, "Our regional manager said that as long as Zhenghong Auto Dealership can enter the top ten sales of the group, I will be the regional manager of the eighth division of the Dadong District next month, hahaha." ”

"Ah, regional manager?" This time even Liu Liang exclaimed, his and Song Guoyuan's heads creaked and twisted like robots, their eyes shuttled back and forth between Sun Yanming and Fang Yuan, and at the same time, their hearts were rushing like there were 100,000 alpacas.

The two know that there is Fangyuan's current terrifying sales, not to mention the top ten sales of Zhenghong Group, even if it is impossible to win the sales crown.

Liu Liang was even thinking that Fang Yuan won the sales crown of the entire group, and with the support of Zhao Gaojie and Sun Yanming, he would definitely be promoted to store manager, so he would ......

Thinking of this, Liu Liang grabbed Fang Yuan's arm fiercely, and his already small eyes turned into a slit with a smile: "Brother, you are the store manager, you must cover my brother and me." ”

"Of course, we are brothers, who am I not helping you?" Fang Yuan didn't dare to look back, but immediately gave Liu Liang a reassurance.

"I just like your calf's personality, hahaha. Liu Liang sat back in his seat, Le's mouth was crooked, and he was already looking forward to a happy life in the future.

"It doesn't look like it's going to be good. Sun Yanming scolded Liu Liang with a smile, "If you want Fang Yuan to help you, you also have to fight for yourself." ”
