Chapter 573: Another Gamble?
Lao Mei's appetite has already been the "Swordfish" GT-R, a supercar that has been publicized for more than half a year and won the title of "fastest production car" at the Nürburgring circuit in Germany, when this car was officially launched on January 1, and with the viral publicity of various media, it instantly became a hot spot in the current news, opening newspapers, turning on TV, and turning on radio...... Without exception, there are reports of the "Swordfish" GT-R.
In this case, someone is upset......
"Smack......
Throwing the newspaper on the table, Roger Smith gritted his teeth in hatred: "AMC, AMC, except for AMC, AMC is AMC...... These damn newspapers don't know what else to say?!"
The poor secretary lowered his head and did not dare to speak, and at the same time silently added in his heart: In fact, in addition to AMC, there are many newspapers that say Fernandez Chen......
It's just that he only dares to think about it in his heart, but he doesn't dare to say it.
No way, a fool can also see that his boss is extremely unhappy with the newspaper reports about AMC, Fernandez Chen and the "Swordfish" GT-R, and he even knows that since he came back from the White House New Year's dinner, his boss has looked at AMC and Mr. Fernandez Chen in various ways.
As for our lovely General Motors President Roger Smith, he was so angry that he couldn't figure it out, didn't that kid from Fernandez just make a relatively fast sports car, what's the big deal, as for you media so undisciplined kneeling and licking?
Yes, that's right, the Swordfish GT-R is really fast, but you can even build an engine to get emotional?
And, most importantly......
Why can't we see General Motors in the newspapers?!
In fact, it's not that I can't see it, there are actually not a lot of GM advertisements in these media, but one is an advertisement and the other is an article, and the difference between the two is so big that there is no way to compare them.
So we can understand that when he got off work in the afternoon, when asked by reporters what he thought of the "Swordfish" GT-R sports car designed by Chen Geng, Mr. Roger Smith, who couldn't help it anymore, broke out: "I don't think it's such a great car!"
Roger Smith's face was bruised, and he hated these damn reporters to death.
Well?!
Roger Smith hated these reporters in his heart, but the reporters suddenly became excited: What? Do you think AMC's "Swordfish" GT-R sports car is nothing great?
What do journalists do best?
Fanning the flames!
Immediately, a reporter from FOX TV asked loudly: "Mr. Smith, you mean that you don't think there is anything remarkable about the 'Swordfish' GT-R, which won the 'world's fastest production civilian car' at the Nürburgring in Germany, do you?"
Roger Smith, of course, knew that this was a pitfall, and he snorted and did not answer directly, but digressed the subject: "I admit that the Swordfish GT-R is a relatively fast sports car, but I would like to remind Mr. Fernandez and AMC that we at General Motors will soon be launching a new generation of Corvette." ”
The reporters' eyes lit up one by one, and Rulin's microphone almost poked into Roger Smith's mouth: "So, Mr. Smith, do you think that this 'Swordfish' GT-R sports car designed by Mr. Fernandez is far from being comparable to the new generation Corvette sports car that General Motors is about to launch?"
"I didn't say that, but ...... Yes. ”
............
The reporters were in ecstasy: it's gone!
Always reporting on how the "Swordfish" GT-R is bull X, how Fernandez Chan is bull X, the audience is already a little tired, newspaper sales are starting to decline, TV ratings are also starting to decline, everyone is worried about where to find new hot spots, I didn't expect General Motors to take the initiative to send it to the door...... Mr. Roger Smith, you are such a wonderful person!
They've even figured out the headline for tomorrow's report: "General Motors: 'Swordfish' GT-R?
As for what kind of consequences this report will cause, they don't care, can't fan the wind and light the ghost of the reporter, is that still a qualified reporter?
They have even begun to wonder how to use this news to stimulate Fernandez Chen: how can a one-man show be interesting to watch two companies tear apart?
........................
Looking at Kelly Hicks, who threw a stack of newspapers in front of him with a "snap" and snorted angrily, Chen Geng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "What's wrong? What happened?"
"Look at it, GM is going too far," Kelly Hicks' bulging chest kept heaving, "and they said our GT-R was nothing remarkable, far worse than their upcoming all-new Corvette sports car." ”
Chen Gengleng paused for a moment: "Just because of this?"
"Sir, don't you think that's enough?" Kelly Hicks paused angrily: "If they are really so good at General Motors, then they can also build a sports car that can run as fast as our GT-R at the Nürburgring, and what kind of ability is it to mumble bad things about us behind our backs......"
"Ha ......"
Understanding Kelly Hicks's depression, Chen Geng couldn't help but smile: "Seeing that our sales have soared, it's no wonder that Mr. Smith is not annoyed...... Having said that, looking at the situation of General Motors during this time, Mr. Smith is annoyed in his heart, and you still don't allow people to say a few words to vent?"
Under the wise leadership of Roger Smith, GM's market share fell by two percentage points again in the past December...... If you're in a bad mood, what's wrong with saying a few bad words to vent?
Even in Chen Geng's view, it is actually a good thing that GM is willing to quarrel with AMC in the air, how simple the reason is, a slap can't make a sound.
Kelly Hicks was very angry, but Chen Geng felt that he should invite Roger Smith to a meal to express his gratitude for this "cooperation".
It's just that the problem is that Chen Geng is not angry, but the reporters don't think so, and when Chen Geng walked out of the office building, he was instantly surrounded by the surging reporters......
"Mr. Fernandez, what do you think of Mr. Roger Smith's words?"
"Mr. Fernandez, Mr. Roger Smith said that the GT-R you designed was a sensational car, do you think he is right?"
"Is it true that Mr. Roger Smith said that GM never saw AMC as its competitor?"
"Mr. Fernández ......"
............
There was a glint of excitement on every reporter's face.
Chen Geng stopped, since everyone is so cooperative, how can he waste such a good stage?
He smiled and nodded, pretending not to understand anything: "Excuse me, are you talking about Mr. Roger Smith of General Motors? I haven't read today's newspaper, so who can tell me what Mr. Smith said?"
“......”
The reporters were speechless for a while: This guy is so shameless!
No one believed that Fernandez Chan really didn't know what was going on, he must be playing dumb.
But Chen Geng is just pretending to be stupid, what can they do?
It was a reporter from the Chicago News who exclaimed, "Boss, Mr. Smith said that our GT-R doesn't even have the right to eat behind their upcoming all-new generation of Corvette, and he doesn't have you in mind at all." ”
"Really?" Chen Geng put on a stunned expression very cooperatively.
"Yes, boss, that's what Mr. Roger Smith said," the Chicago News reporter did not hide the relationship between his newspaper and Chen Geng, but was rather smug: "What do you think of Mr. Roger Smith's words?"
Of course, you have to take care of your own newspaper, Chen Geng said with a smile: "I have a convertible version of the Corvette C2 myself, and I like this car very much." ”
Well?
Chen Geng's answer made many reporters stunned: What does it mean? Mr. Fernandez actually spoke for General Motors? He actually coaxed?!
Only the reporter of the "Chicago News" widened his eyes with excitement: here it is, the boss is going to make trouble!
He is too familiar with the habits of his own boss's boss, and whenever his boss's boss puts on such a posture, it means that the boss's boss is ready to trap people.
Without disappointing his employees, Chen Geng continued with a smile: "But what I want to say is that I like the Corvette C2, I know this car very well, and I know very well the level and attainment of General Motors in sports cars...... Having said that, what I want to say is: Mr. Smith, since you have so much confidence in your new generation of Corvette, when are we going to have a game?
As for the bet, we might as well bet a little smaller, just bet on the shares, you win, I will give you 5% of the AMC shares, I win, you GM only need to lose 1% of the shares to me, how about it?
Ha......
I knew it!
I knew it!
I knew the boss wasn't something to mess with.
The Chicago News reporters are going crazy!
And the reporters of other media all had straight eyes: directly bet on the company's shares? God, do you want to play so big?!
But the next moment, they reacted: big bets, big bets, big gimmicks, aren't we?
Good!
This bet is so good!
