Chapter 642: George Patton

Chapter 642: George Patton

Liu Chengwen chatted with Fang Yuan for a while before leaving, while Fang Yuan and Zhang Chen continued to stay in the rest area.

During this period, the two front desk beauties came over to each other to ask for warmth, and took care of each other very thoughtfully, and the long-haired beauty even hinted to Fang Yuan that she wanted to change jobs and go to Fang Yuan as a secretary.

Fang Yuan knew that although the regional manager did not have a full-time secretary, there were still people in charge of some copywriting work, and he didn't dare to break the rules of Zhenghong Group, and you can't do it if you are willing.

After waiting for more than an hour, Dong Zhengzhi came back with a group of talents.

Seeing Fang Yuan and Zhang Chen, Dong Zhengzhi didn't have the slightest boss shelf, especially more enthusiastic about Zhang Chen, holding his hand and laughing, people who didn't know thought he was a relative of Dong Zhengzhi's family.

"Fang Yuan, why didn't you two go to the office?" Dong Zhengzhi asked Fang Yuan kindly, what are you doing sitting in the hall?

"Mr. Dong, it just so happened that I met a friend just now, and we chatted here for a while. ”

"That's right, it's just right, let's not go to the office, just go to the underground parking garage to see the car. Dong Zhengzhi was in a very good mood and led everyone to the underground parking lot, where the car he wanted to modify had been parked.

A large group of people walked to the elevator, Zhang Chen and Fang Yuan were very curious about what model Dong Zhengzhi was going to modify, Fang Yuan was embarrassed to say, but Zhang Chen couldn't help it, and asked directly without any scruples: "Uncle Dong, what kind of model is yours?"

Dong Zhengzhi had nothing to say to Zhang Chen: he replied very cheerfully: "George Patton, have you heard of it?"

"Nope. Zhang Chen shook his head a little confused, and turned his face to look at Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan explained to Zhang Chen softly: "If your Infiniti Q70L is a niche car, then George Patton is a niche among the niche, the unpopular among the unpopular, and the sales are very small." ”

I see, Zhang Chen asked Fang Yuan: "Have you seen this car?"

"Nope. You haven't heard of it, and I haven't seen it as a second-hand car maker. Fang Yuan said truthfully, if there is a customer who wants this car, it is estimated that he will not be able to find one after digging three feet into the ground in the entire sea market, oh no, the boss in front of him, Dong Zhengzhi, has one.

"Haha, there are even models that Fang Yuan has never seen?" Zhao Gaojie smiled, he was not ridiculing Fang Yuan, it was because Fang Yuan had been giving him too many surprises, and in his subconscious he had formed the impression that Fang Yuan was omnipotent in cars, and now Fang Yuan actually said that he had not seen it, which made him very surprised.

Zhao Gaojie was surprised, and Fang Yuan was also surprised, there was no information about George Patton in his car dealer system, which was probably related to its unpopularity.

"Mr. Zhao, are you familiar with this George Patton?" Zhang Chen asked Zhao Gaojie curiously.

"Zhenghong Auto Dealership has many models, and it is impossible to have all of them, let alone accept this kind of model that can't be sold for three years, otherwise it won't pay for death?" Zhao Gaojie glanced at the boss next to him, and explained it to Fang Yuan before introducing it to Zhang Chen.

George Patton is an off-road vehicle produced by the Bald Eagle Country, using the name of George Patton, a general of the Bald Eagle Country during World War II.

It is said that George Patton loved two types of cars during his lifetime, one was the tank and the other was the super large jeep, because they were both very strong off-road capabilities.

In 2013, George Patton off-road vehicle made its debut at the China Auto Show, officially entered China, its configuration is very unique, the cockpit has night vision system, satellite navigation, anti-biological and chemical gas system, oxygen supply equipment and other safety equipment, as well as multimedia audio and video system, high-tech satellite detection system, in short, and ordinary models are completely different.

"So awesome?" This configuration is similar to that of an armored car, Zhang Chen was even more curious about this George Patton, and couldn't help but speed up his pace, looking forward to taking a look at this very niche, very unpopular, and alternative configuration such as the anti-biological and chemical gas system.

"Zhang Chen, if you pay attention to George Patton's propaganda words, they say that George Patton likes tanks and big off-road jeeps, but people don't say that George Patton likes this George Patton off-road vehicle, after all, George Patton died in 1945. Dong Zhengzhi smiled instead, patted Zhao Gaojie's shoulder affectionately, and told Zhang Chen, "Don't listen to Lao Zhao's fooling, labor and management bought this car because they were fooled." ”

"How did you get fooled, and how much did it cost?" Zhang Chen's curiosity had been whetted, and the idea of seeing George Patton was even more urgent.

"You'll find out later. Dong Zhengzhi pointed to the elevator and motioned for everyone to go down first.

Everyone went down to the underground parking lot, passed through the neatly arranged sea of cars, and finally came to the southeast corner.

Far away, Fang Yuan saw a huge car model, like a giant beast lying there.

Fang Yuan estimates that the body length of this George Patton has far exceeded the 5,150 mm of the 2019 Lexus LX570, and even longer than the 5,910 mm of the 2019 Ford F-150.

But less than six meters per cent, otherwise it would not be a blue card.

The most incredible thing is its width, which is estimated to be more than 2.5 meters, and the 2019 Lexus LX570 and the 2019 Ford F-150 cannot be compared.

As for the height, Fang Yuan believes that it should be more than 2.1 meters.

The crowd approached, finally getting a clear look at it.

Compared with the huge body, what surprised Fang Yuan more was its appearance, its lines were hard, angular, full of muscles, it looked like an armored car, and its fierce shape was very much in line with the name George Patton.

Such a majestic and domineering George Patton also aroused the curiosity of others, especially Zhang Chen began to circle around the body.

When Fang Yuan was in the distance, he had already urged the car dealer system to scan the car, and as expected, there was no record.

However, Fang Yuan was not in a hurry, and carefully looked at all the details of it.

The rectangular front line is horizontal and vertical, and the angle between the shutter-like grille and the front bumper is almost vertical, and it is estimated that no aerodynamics was considered in the design.

And in the middle of the grille there is a golden rectangular logo, the design is very simple, the five-pointed star logo is very eye-catching.

On both sides are vertical rectangular headlight clusters, the shape is also simple and rough, and it doesn't seem to consider any streamlined shape, which is next to the grille to install the finished thing, and the unexpected thing is that the overall look has a little integrated visual effect.

Below the grille is a thick and large front bumper, protruding outwards from the body for twenty or thirty centimeters, and the top end also has an anti-skid corrugation design, which may be convenient for climbing to check the cabin situation, which reminds Fang Yuan of the old German cars in the past, up to the BMW Seven Series, down to Poussin like this design.

Although it is not good enough to look at it from the current perspective, it is very practical, and you don't have to worry about hurting the grille, radiator frame, etc., just scrape some putty, spray some paint, not so delicate, this George Patton design, should be the same idea.

Looking up, George Patton's canopy design is even simpler, without any design aesthetics at all, it should be a sheet of iron stamped out of two rectangular grooves at both ends, a little too shabby, but the high convex shape is so muscular.

Walking to the side, a straight waistline divides the entire side into upper and lower parts, which looks so distinct.

The body angle above the waistline is very large, the whole shape is inclined towards the roof, and the hexagonal windows are also unusual, which is different from the models Fang Yuan has seen, and there is a battlefield style.

The body angle below the waistline is much more normal and simple.

Exaggerated rivets, tall wheel arches, and stiff lines, together with the above, this series of special symbols highlights the tough nature of the car, which is very much in line with its image of a heroic and combative chariot.

At the rear, the rear styling is even more simple to boring, the suspended spare tire in the middle occupies almost all the area, leaving only the space for vertical rectangular taillights, the layering of other models, the small rear wing, and the big fat tail do not exist.

The design is simple, the lines are tough, and a large area of metal wraps the body, and its image is as close as possible to the armored car, and the domineering appearance exudes a flamboyant temperament, which is Fang Yuan's evaluation of George Patton's appearance.

Anyway, according to Fang Yuan's character, he would not drive such a car on the street, it was too ostentatious, too impractical, it was difficult to turn around and merge, even if it was a simple parking, it was best to occupy two parking spaces.

Over there, Zhang Chen had already opened the main driver's door of George Patton, and a group of people approached him, and Fang Yuan was also standing behind and looking in.

Compared with the appearance of a strong metallic texture and full of battlefield style, the two-tone interior embellished with wood grain trim gives Fang Yuan the feeling of being rough and cannot be looked at closely.

There is a large gap where the trim plate meets, and there are uncleaned threads and loose buttons everywhere...... All of a sudden, the entire interior was lowered.

The workmanship is rough, the design is not good, all kinds of straight lines have no aesthetic sense, the smaller central control screen is both workmanship and texture, how to look like it was installed in the later stage of the auto parts city, Fang Yuan especially can't bear the central armrest in the front row, a bare pestle in the middle, a little spicy eyes.

Open the back door, there are four independent seats inside, and the place connected to the front row is a curved bar, and there is a large screen in the middle.

Shocking, not worthy of the name, but that's it.

Fang Yuan believes that this George Patton does not have a pure American style, like a stitching monster.

There were no amazing designs and highlights, Fang Yuan had lost the motivation to enter the car and continue to look, and walked towards Dong Zhengzhi with a little disappointment.

Dong Zhengzhi had been standing on the periphery and didn't follow everyone to check, but now when he saw Fang Yuan coming, he didn't mention the modification with a smile, but quietly warned him: "Mr. Du has a piece of land in his hand to get rid of, you and Zhang Chen try to have a good relationship." ”

Hmm, the boss's inexplicable words stunned Fang Yuan.

Aren't Dong Zong and Du Xiao good friends? I want to buy land from him, and I want to pay the money with one hand and give the land with the other, why do I have to leave Zhang Chen's relationship?

Besides, Zhang Chen is just an ordinary employee, how much role can he play?

How could Mr. Dong attach so much importance to Zhang Chen?

Even if there are 10,000 doubts, the boss doesn't say the reason, Fang Yuan has no way to ask, just nods in agreement, anyway, he and Zhang Chen are just friends, how much of a role can it play?

Finding that everyone was coming towards him, Dong Zhengzhi's smile remained unchanged, and he changed the topic and asked Fang Yuan: "How do you see the modification?"

Buying land, Fang Yuan doesn't understand, he is an expert in modification.

However, Fang Yuan didn't answer immediately, and asked rhetorically: "Mr. Dong, what are you going to drive this car for?"

"Fishing with Lao Du and them. Dong Zhengzhi smiled.

Okay, fishing again?

Is fishing addictive?

So fun?

Speaking of going fishing, Fang Yuan already had a complete design plan in mind.

In fact, Fang Yuan felt that driving this George Patton to go fishing was not the best choice, but the boss's requirements had to be met.

Fang Yuan pointed to George Patton's grille and said: "The middle grille is replaced, but I estimate that there are no original modifications, and they need to be customized separately, and a wider and larger racing bar is added, and four off-road lights are installed on the front windshield, so that the appearance is more powerful and domineering, and the roof rack is installed to facilitate the placement of fishing equipment, which will not stain the interior of the car, but the other parts of the body appearance will not move." ”

Fang Yuan put the focus of the modification on the interior, and the changes were very large, almost tearing down and restarting.

The rough trim should be replaced with carbon fiber and suede.

The central control of the auto parts city fan should be replaced with a large LCD screen.

The simple, spicy-eyed central armrest should be replaced with a novel design with a good appearance and many functions.

......

As for the rear row, all four seats have been replaced with imperial chairs, with leg rests, lumbar support adjustment, shoulder support adjustment, electric seat memory, which can move back and forth, with seat heating, ventilation and massage functions.

The most important thing is that the two seats at the back should be changed to be able to pull back out of the car and temporarily act as a fishing position, so that Dong Zhengzhi can sit on them for fishing.

Secondly, there are also the installation of atmosphere lights, starry sky roof, hidden water tank and so on.

There are a lot of things that can be seen and a lot that cannot be seen, in short, how comfortable and how to come, how luxurious and how to change, Dong Zhengzhi's eyes were stunned when he listened.

However, Dong Zhengzhi pondered according to the modification plan designed by Fang Yuan, the rear seat of the car could be pulled out of the car, turned the direction to be the seat, and he lay on it comfortably, while the others could only sit the maza, which was estimated to make Lao Du and them angry.

There is also a hidden water tank for washing, and a hidden barbecue grill can be taken out and put in the open space, so that the catch can be killed and grilled, which is very touching when you think about it.

When Fang Yuan introduced the modification to the boss, he recruited everyone else, and everyone thought it was very practical, very luxurious, and very good.

In the end, Zhang Chen asked Fang Yuan weakly: "How much does it cost to modify like this." ”

"Hmm...... Estimate a million. Fang Yuan calculated for a while before he reported the accurate figure, of course, including a lot of modification fees, the boss was so rich, he couldn't give him a job for nothing.

"Okay, just follow your design, and pay when you turn over the car. Dong Zhengzhi pondered that Fang Yuan's design was very interesting, and asked Fang Yuan to send George Patton to the modified car today, and the modification would be completed as soon as possible.

Fang Yuan actually quoted a price of one million, and Sun Yanming next to him stared at him deadly.

Fang Yuan knew that Uncle Sun was asking about the modification, but now that there were so many people, he couldn't tell the truth, so he could only give him a meaningful smile.

Seeing Fang Yuan's replying expression, Sun Yanming almost laughed out loud, thinking that Fang Yuan probably slaughtered the boss this time, this is the happiness of a rich man, he wants Fang Yuan to slaughter himself, but he doesn't have this opportunity.

Fail.

After finishing the business, Dong Zhengzhi ordered his men to get the car keys to Fang Yuan, and then Zhang Chen came over and asked, "Uncle Dong, what happened when you said you were fooled?"

"Hey......" Dong Zhengzhi sighed, patted the front of George Patton's car, and looked very lonely, "You see that this George Patton is majestic and domineering, but in fact, the configuration is low, the workmanship is rough, and the materials are poor...... It's just a look. ”

Speaking of this, Dong Zhengzhi looked at Fang Yuan: "Fang Yuan's modification plan almost perfectly solves all its shortcomings, and it is very practical and high-grade. ”

Dong Zhengzhi told everyone that this 2014 model of George Patton did 4 million Chinese coins that year, not only the interior is not good, its fuel consumption is ridiculously high, the 6.2L engine is 20 or 30 ordinary oil per 100 kilometers, it is simply Sinopec's long-term strategic partner, PetroChina's black gold member, even if Dong Zhengzhi is so rich, it is a pain in the flesh.

Later, Dong Zhengzhi heard the gossip through the relationship, saying that this model has nothing to do with George Patton, and its Bald Eagle Country parent company USSV, that is, an empty shell, has almost no history at all, and the American blood it flaunts has no basis, it is said that a Wenzhou man went to the Bald Eagle Country to register, package, and then sold it to China.
