Chapter 354: When it comes to supporting the automobile industry

In addition, Stephen expressed a very sincere request that you lend the Bugatti La to the Bugatti for a short period of time at the Frankfurt Motor Show. ”

Yan Zhi said.

"It's a request, expressed through channels after it's confirmed that you'll be going to Frankfurt. ”

Ning Yan asked, "Does he want to exhibit a car that needs to be overhauled?"

"Yes. ”

Yan Zhi replied: "Even the car that broke the speed of 300 mph for the first time has remained the same, including the mud that sprinted to the body. ”

"Even the speed hand on the dashboard is still stuck at 490 km/h. ”

"As a testimony to speed. ”

Ning Yan thought for a moment and said, "Feel free." ”

"Anyway, I've been temporarily banned from driving supercars, and I feel congested just thinking about it, and I'm about to see so many good-looking supercars. ”

“……”

…………

After Ning Yan arrived at the auto show in Frankfurt, after meeting with Lin Mian and Wen Xi, the first thing he saw was not a vast number of cool supercars.

Instead, Stephen was very politely invited to a break room.

Stephen was pleasantly surprised by Ning Yan's approachability.

"Thank you very much, Lord Ning, for giving me a quiet opportunity to speak. ”

"Thank you very much for coming to Frankfurt. ”

“……”

After a pause, Stephen said, "Our engineers have seen your car, and many components, including tires, need to be overhauled because of the top speed. ”

"If you don't mind, after today's brief exhibition, we immediately ship it back to the factory for overhaul and then take care of shipping the repaired car to you. ”

"Our engineers have had a simple assessment, and the overall time will not be more than ten days. ”

Ning Yan smiled: "So thank you, Mr. President, Mr. Stephen." ”

"We'll use some of the latest available technology in your car, such as new tires, and we look forward to surprising you again when the car is refinished. Stephen said again.

Ning Yan nodded and didn't say anything.

Neither side mentioned the cost of this process.

In fact, Stephen was well aware that, based on a simple assessment by the engineers after seeing the car, the cost of the refurbishment would probably be enough to buy a new Divo in Germany.

This is not an exaggeration at all.

That's basically the case with all supercars.

For example, if a vehicle is 3 million RMB, then the price of all parts of the vehicle will be 6 million RMB.

It will only be more exaggerated than such examples.

Especially the Bugatti, which sells one and loses one.

The reason why Stephen announced in public yesterday that from now on, Bugatti will withdraw from the competition to produce the fastest series of supercars.

In the future, Bugatti will focus on other areas.

As far as Ning Yan knows, after the Bugatti Chiron model was launched and sold in a limited edition of 500 units, the Volkswagen Group intended to reduce Bugatti's R&D funds and resources, and there were even rumors that it would cut off this money-losing brand.

At that time, there were such rumors because Volkswagen had just changed its chairman.

The new chairman is not so aggressive about supercars.

Not even at all like Bugatti, which pursues the speed limit.

This is also evidenced by Stephen's public remarks yesterday, although after Chiron, Bugatti has launched six models: Chiron Sport, Divo, Chiron Sport 110 ans, Centodieci, La Voiture Noire, and Chiron Super Sport 300+.

But none of these are mass-produced.

The 110th Anniversary Special and Commemorative editions are limited to 20 units and 10 units.

The Divo is limited to 40 units.

La is limited to 1 unit.

300+ limited edition of 30 units.

There is almost no mass production, and in the end, this 300+ is the version that broke the 300 mph speed.

On the whole, in fact, Bugatti's production of ultra-fast supercars is indeed from Chiron after taking over from Veyron, and the result is already doomed.

Because after Chiron, all new versions are based on the Chiron platform......

Seeing Stephen leave, Ning Yan sighed and said with emotion: "Bugatti's glory has come to an end since this auto show. ”

Yan Zhi didn't know much about the specific situation, so she asked, "Why did you suddenly say that." ”

"Just because Stephen said that Bugatti will focus on other areas in the future?"

Ning Yan shook his head: "No, it is a doomed result after the change of chairman from Volkswagen Group and the launch of Chiron from Bugatti." ”

"I don't know if this auto show can be a little surprised. ”

Yan Zhi blinked her eyes and replied, "It may be difficult, because yesterday was the first day, and it will actually take more than ten days." ”

"It is said that Lamborghini did not enter. ”

"I heard that there will be a major release of domestic brands today. ”

"Is there such a thing?" Ning Yan was stunned.

Isn't it too early?

Do you want to stay in Frankfurt for more than ten days?

This must not be!

"But I do know that the new Lamborghini car should be a hybrid, and it should be just a test of the waters. ”

Yan Zhi said.

"There's another thing. ”

"Old Mr. Ferdinand is not in good health, and maybe bad news will come in the next moment. ”

Ning Yan: "...... How I don't know. ”

"Last night's incident, the situation took a turn for the worse, and the attending physician issued several critical illnesses just last night. Yan Zhi said.

"So serious?"

“…… Ahem~"

Yan Zhi suddenly coughed twice.

"It's worse than you think. ”

"Ten seconds ago, the news came out that Mr. Ferdinand had passed away, and it should take a little time for the press release to come out. ”

Ning Yan: "......"

He was really stunned.

He had also met Ferdinand a few days earlier.

It seems that his physical condition is indeed not very good, but he didn't expect to leave.

"Let's go...... Go to the car show. ”

“???”

Ning Yan said as he walked: "If I buy a few more cars, I will support the development of the automobile industry." ”

"There's only so much I can do right now, and that's all I can do. ”

To be honest, Ning Yan's appearance at the Frankfurt Motor Show still has a certain influence at some levels.

At least some of the German automaker's aristocracy, including Susanna, felt that was a tendency.

At least, Ning Yan showed that he did not hate the German automobile industry.

“…… Thank you very much, Your Excellency Ning. ”

Stephen said with a smile.

"On behalf of Bugatti, I would like to thank His Excellency Ning for his efforts to push the limits of the car's top speed. ”

“……”

"I would also like to thank His Excellency Ning for lending us his car for the exhibition, so that everyone can see this supercar that has hit the current limit of the speed of cars. ”

“……”

Ning Yan showed his face and did not say anything.

Just said at the end: "300+ is very good, I order one." ”

Stephen happily complied.

Another thing to say if the sales are not sold, it is good to have Ning Yan's words......
