Volume 1 Chapter 48: Friends from the Frontier Are Gone
Abdu happily invited Xing Yu to eat a large plate of chicken, he felt that this time it was too smooth, so that he could fulfill his wish without worrying too much, and he was also very happy.
It was agreed that I would continue to come back not long after I went back. If Xing Yu has good car source information, keep it for himself first. You can also make a direct payment, they are all Xinjiang son dolls, and they can be trusted.
In the past few days, I have been accompanying guests to eat and drink water, running around to help with formalities, and arranging accommodation. Xing Yu felt that the tea and commission he got were still a bit of a loss. After all, many car dealers also gave great discounts on Xing Yu's face.
There is help to contact logistics later. After sending away a few cars, Abdul and the others prepared to drive their own Xiali back.
In the late 80s, there were only two joint ventures or cooperative automobile manufacturers in China, one was the Cherokee produced by Beijing Jeep, and the other was the Satana produced by Shanghai Volkswagen. An off-road vehicle, a sedan. In terms of mini cars, there is still a blank, Xiali was born at this time, the name Xiali was given by the mayor of Tianjin at that time, and the prototype Charade was called Xiali, and the Hijet was called Huali. Joining together also means that China is profitable.
Facing the imported Fiat 126P, and the Skylark that later adopted Subaru technology, there is also Alto using Suzuki technology. Tianjin Xiali has made a lot of adjustments and still occupies the forefront of the domestic mini car sales market.
Most of the first taxis in the frontier were Xiali, and the locals felt that they were running taxis, running every day, and the quality was definitely good. In addition, Xiali was a little taller before, and the body ran some bad roads than Alto, and the lark was much more powerful.
So the locals still like Xiali, but they also like the N3 and A+ versions. Of course, the higher cost performance is also one of the popular willingness of Alto in Xialibi, after all, the second-hand price of Alto is a bit high.
Zhou Long saw that he had been busy before and after running for the past few days, which had delayed other things in the company, and he was not too angry. After all, he found new business opportunities, and he felt that there should be more such big customers, and it would be better if some car dealers from other places could join the auction.
It doesn't matter if you don't have time to come, your company has the most advanced online auction technology in China at that time. As long as these people can recognize the credibility of the company, look at the car on the website, read the evaluation report, and the online bidding is the same. This also helps with the auction price and attracts more people to participate, doesn't it?
When he was fine these days, Zhou Long pulled Xing Yu to chat, chatting about what kind of car he liked and what kind of car he wanted over there. What are the difficulties in collecting the auction deposit, the booking fee?
How much does Xing Yu know, he went to school and worked by himself, and he hasn't been back for several years. Now I know that the car dealer over there is only one Abdu, and those people don't have so much need to buy a car.
On this day, Xing Yu received a strange phone call, and it turned out to be a Jetta brother who used to pick up and drop off him when he was in high school.
He also heard later that Xing Yu was engaged in second-hand cars here, and he went to play during the Chinese New Year, but he didn't see it. I heard about it later, and I immediately asked for a phone. The two chatted for a while, and then got down to business.
This old brother's name is Lang Liang, who ran passenger transportation by himself earlier in Baihuahe Town, and now he is just starting to prepare for a second-hand car business. Isn't this drowsy touching the pillow?
After chatting on the phone for a long time, Xing Yu also had a general understanding of the local second-hand car market. There is still a difference between the north and the south of the border provinces, the south likes Korean Japanese cars, and the north likes German cars like Volkswagen Audi. The south side requires a high configuration, at least it is also an automatic transmission with a sunroof, and the north side likes a manual transmission, and it is best to have a sunroof, and it doesn't matter if you don't have it.
This is also in line with the living habits of the locals, and the automatic car is still much more convenient to drive, but it is too cold in the north, and it is often necessary to pull the car to ignite in winter. Frontier people have a good face, and they always feel that having a sunroof is a high-end model.
As for the brand, it is the most local kind of car, and I like that kind of car.
and Lang Ping got to know each other and agreed on the need to use the car in the future. Xing Yu also immediately told Zhou Long some of his views on the second-hand car industry in Frontier Province.
At this time, he received a call from Abdu over there, expressing his idea of wanting a few more Maxima, and Xing Yu also reported to Zhou Long.
Look for it in the market first, 1.3 automatic, with sunroof, silver. I didn't find a few units in one lap. Zhou Long let go, the work at hand will be handed over in the past few days, and we will go to the capital, there are a lot of thousands of horses over there. We are looking to see if there is a suitable one to get back more, to hold a large-scale online auction, and others will also pay more attention to the car dealers from other places during this time, and strive to have more foreign ones during the auction.
The leader has spoken, and we have nothing to say. Pack up and go, go to the capital to see how the car market is doing business, and it's good to learn the advanced experience there.
At this time, Xing Yu had also been to Chongqing, Chengdu to collect cars, and other places had not been there. Chongqing Chengdu car change frequency is very high, the transfer is very cheap, the number of transfers is also a lot, in fact, it affects the sales price of the vehicle, buyers see how to transfer so much?
I have already heard of it in the capital, what Huaxiang market, what Asian Games village market, and there is a four-season green Zoomlion. This is the earliest comprehensive market for second-hand cars in China. It is said that it is several times larger than Xi'an, the second-hand car market in Huaxiang was established as early as the eighties, and officially settled in Fengtai District of the capital in 1992, covering an area of more than 500 acres, with hundreds of merchants, tens of thousands of vehicles in stock, and more than hundreds of thousands of vehicles traded every year.
From a few thousand dollars of bread to millions of dollars of supercars. You can find it all here. The train last week Long also introduced and explained some of the doorways over there.
It's a lot more standardized now, and although the water is very transparent, you can't see anything clearly...... All I can tell you is that the water is ruthless......
Caution is the most important thing. The market is transparent, but you can't see anything...... All I can tell you is that the water is ruthless...... The industry routine is deep, and trading needs to be cautious.
The people who accosted them at the door were all professional brokers, that is, Lato's scalpers. Just like those people you meet at the door of the electronic market, you don't have a car, and they all introduce you as a customer to others for intermediary fees.
Don't be greedy and follow those cars that are not in the market, those cars are basically problematic, and it is easy to be fished when you leave the market to go to an unfamiliar place.
Don't pick up stubble with unfamiliar people, don't be led to the corners by them.
Look at the car with the contact number on it. Except for those in the storefront, they call directly at other times.
Look at the car to be more careful, the refurbishment ability of the accident car here is not comparable to our side.
……………………
Trains, subways, buses. The cost of a taxi in Beijing is too high. I feel that second-hand cars are highly profitable, but I have never seen the hardships of second-hand car people running back and forth across the country.
The longer I make a used car, the more I feel like I'm walking the rivers and lakes. I met all kinds of people, some good and some bad, some cunning, some honest, some honest, and some deceitful.
Huaxiang, the earliest and largest second-hand car trading market in China. When I saw the big sign of "Welcome to the Capital Used Car Market", the story of Zhou Long and Xing Yu's on-the-spot car viewing began.
It's not like there is a car market in Xi'an, where many people guard it every day. Those who look at cars, sell cars, buy cars, and all kinds of neatly dressed insurance salesmen are interspersed.
Sure enough, there were a lot of people at the door who came to say hello, "Brother, are you coming to see the car?" As soon as you came over, a group of people gathered around to say hello, listening to the accent, there were people everywhere in the world.
This is very different from Xi'an, where there are also but they are basically just locals. And there are not so many people, this group of people are chasing and intercepting, and they still don't give up.
Zhou Long was also annoyed and couldn't stand it, and when he said the name of the Beijing head office, everyone dispersed a lot, but there were still a few people around and said: "Noodle students, did you just come to work? Do you want to go to us to see, our company's welfare is better." ”
The two finally broke out of the encirclement, and Zhou Long saw a cigarette butt falling from the ground at the door of the Bangdu headquarters.
"This cigarette butt should have been smoked by the person who sold the car, the ash was relatively complete, it should be squatting and smoking, and there was no wind at the time, there was only one cigarette butt, indicating that he was very lonely, the cigarette butt pointed to the left front, indicating that the right hand was holding the cigarette, and the slight bite marks fully reflected the anxiety of the car seller, indicating that the line was very stressful, the cigarette ash was from complete to scattered, and it could be seen that the mood of the smoker changed, 8 pieces of Hongta Mountain, only two puffs were willing to throw away, there is only one reason!
That's when the customer comes......"
Compared to the Xi'an market, it is much busier and more stressful, and Xing Yu began to be glad that he did not choose to make a living in Beijing at that time.
I was very happy to meet my colleagues in Beijing. Contact feelings first, and talk about work. It is also the normal situation of people in China. In the later stage of the leader's conversation, Xing Yu decided to go shopping first, and the leader here also gave a work card for Xing Yu to wear.
Wearing this brand, everyone knows that this is the company's own people. Everyone is a peer, and don't show off your disgraceful means.
This is still a blue regular employee license plate, not the white internship license plate. is still the same sentence, "The temple is a small demon and the wind is big, and the king of the pool is shallow"
The threshold of the second-hand car industry is low, and anyone with a little money can do it, and they can make money if they know a little bit about cars. The lower the threshold of a circle, the easier it is to attract people of all colors to enter, and the more people who enter the circle, the more mixed the voice. Chinese people are red when they see others making money, so they rush to the market, the market is so big, the experienced and the inexperienced are mixed in it, those who make money, those who do not make money, those who do business according to their duty, and those who make black money by abduction.
The eight immortals crossed the sea, each showing their magical powers. The more time passes, the more people in the industry there are. It is easy to breed all kinds of bad habits, and when the forest is big, there are all kinds of people.
Not to mention outsiders, locals are also easy to get into.
There are a lot of explanations here, and the manpower is also accurate, otherwise it would be much better to send someone of his own to follow.
Xing Yu wanted to take a stroll first and see the environment. If you don't look at the car, your company headquarters will provide information, and you will be in a hurry to receive any car. Let's take a stroll around first, see something you like to play with, and what else is there to be afraid of.
Declined the kindness of his colleagues in the company, Xing Yu stepped into the flower market alone.
