The next morning, how did Mr. Xu report to the leaders about the cooperation with Toyota, let's not talk about it, just talk about the video conference call the next day, Mr. Xu's expression was very serious: "Comrades, the cooperation between Brilliance Group and the German BMW Group has been officially approved by the Planning Commission, everyone knows about this matter, right?"

"Got it. ”

"Got it......"

............

Yesterday, when Secretary An informed everyone one by one on the phone, he had already explained to everyone what was to be discussed at today's meeting, and everyone naturally knew why Mr. Xu's expression was so ugly.

Mr. Xu's expression remained unchanged, and he kept his previous seriousness: "Since everyone knows, let's talk about our views on this matter first." ”

"Ahem...... Let me say a few words first," Vice President Li, who is a die-hard supporter of President Xu, first spoke: "I think this is a huge shame for us Yiqi!"

As he spoke, he waved his hand vigorously, as if to reinforce his point.

Mr. Xu nodded slightly.

"Why is it a shame for us together? Because we are Yiqi!" Vice President Li said loudly: "We are the eldest son, D and the country, the people trust us the most, over the years, we have been loyal to fulfill the responsibilities entrusted to us by D and the people, if the whole of China, which unit is most qualified to produce luxury cars with foreign enterprises, then we Yiqi must be the best!"

When Vice President Li said this, everyone nodded in agreement.

It's not that Vice President Li sings a high profile, but everyone really thinks like this in their hearts: we are the "eldest son", and the "red flag" are all here, if we want to reform and open up and carry out joint ventures in the automotive industry, then Mercedes-Benz and BMW, which are internationally recognized joint venture car brands, should cooperate with our Yiqi, and Shouqi is just that, but the guy who produces bread in Brilliance, why are they?!

Mr. Xu was even more satisfied, and a little smile appeared on his face: "Lao Li said it very well, hmm...... You go on to say. ”

"Okay," Vice President Li first nodded to Mr. Xu to express his greetings, and then continued: "But no matter what, our Yiqi is the big brother, and the big brother must have the bearing of the big brother, since our little brother has already set up with others, we can't take the job from the little brother's hands."

It's just that, even so, our big brother can't fall into his own bearing: Brilliance and Shouqi have cooperated with BMW and Mercedes-Benz, and naturally they should also cooperate with a recognized and world-class luxury car brand, so as to be the right identity of our big brother of Yiqi,"

Speaking of this, Vice President Li nodded at the camera: "Mr. Xu, and comrades, that's all I want to say." ”

After Vice President Li finished speaking, Mr. Xu finally spoke: "Very good, what Lao Li said is very good, what Lao Li said is right, our FAW is the big brother, of course, we can't grab it from the little brothers below, but we can't ignore the face of Yiqi, so next, the question we want to discuss is: choose one from the luxury car brands in the world today and see who we can work with...... Well, then, everyone is free to speak. ”

Mr. Xu and his generation have a deep plot for American luxury car brands, and they can refer to the prototype of Hongqi CA72 to know what kind of car is a luxury car in the eyes of their generation.

So as soon as Mr. Xu's voice fell, someone immediately said: "Cadillac and Lincoln, I think Cadillac and Lincoln are good, they have history, brand, and heritage, not only are they recognized as luxury cars all over the world, but also one of the cars of Commander Millican, whether it is a brand or something else, these two are enough." ”

"What about Lexus," as soon as he finished speaking, someone next to him immediately picked up the words: "Chen Geng's Lexus is also good." ”

"Lexus is good, and it's a good luxury brand, but I always feel that compared to Lincoln and Cadillac, Chen Geng's Lexus is still half a notch lower than these two. ”

But there are also those who disagree......

"Whether it's Lincoln, Cadillac or Lexus, although they are all good, don't forget that the relationship between us and Millican has not been very stable, comrades, this kind of negotiation can easily take two or three years, and the hidden risks are too great, what if the dialogue attitude of the Millican government changes in the middle of the conversation, and we temporarily stop this negotiation?"

Well?

This objection was immediately taken seriously by everyone.

Yes, Lincoln, Cadillac and Lexus are recognized luxury car brands, there is no doubt about this, but the problem is that although the relationship between China and the United States has improved, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the attitude of the US government to contain China has not changed much, but they are now busy with the war in Afghanistan and Iraq, so they have to compromise with us, so the question is, just like Vice President Xie said, if the relationship between China and the United States changes again in the middle of our talks with one of them, what we have done before has become useless？

What can I do about this?!

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and you didn't speak for a while.

Even Mr. Xu frowned, he groaned for a while, and asked Vice President Xie, "Old Xie, what do you ......mean?"

"I mean," said Mr. Xie, "can we find a similar luxury brand in Europe?"
