Chapter 451: Never Afraid of Any Competition
"Ha, Mr. Lee, I don't think it's a bad proposition. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Carman occupies half of the North American pickup truck market, and the company's A-series pickup trucks have been ranked in the top three sales list for three consecutive years, and I can also proudly tell you that the fourth and fifth largest pickup truck models in the sales list are also our company's products.
Under such a momentum of development, the shares worth $300 million today may rise to 350 million next year, or even 400 million.
I have investigated your faith, although it is undeniable that you have some fame in China. But it seems that several of your models are not selling well in the United States! IMHO, it is not wise to develop a pickup truck business in the United States with your company's situation. ”
Faced with Phillips' sense of superiority in controlling the overall situation, after saying these words, Li Fan smiled foolishly.
Angry!
"In response to what you just said, it is necessary for me to pull you out of your imagination and back to reality.
First, now Zhengxin's models are not selling well in the U.S. market, so I came here in person and established a U.S. branch. I think in the near future, you'll see our models take the North American market by storm.
Second, your company's stock may rise by 200 percent or 30 percent, but it may also fall by 20 percent or 30 percent. So I'm not at all interested in your proposal.
Third, if you have investigated the true faith, then you should also be clear. When our first production model, the A4, was launched, several of the leading models in the sales charts were trampled underfoot. This was still the case when the second production model, the A6, was launched. I am very responsible to tell you that Zhengxin has developed in the midst of breaking through thorns along the way, and I have never been afraid of any competitors!
Now, of course, that includes you!
So Mr. Phelps, while I was still in a good mood, quickly picked up this unappetizing letter of intent and disappeared from my presence. ”
After speaking, Li Fanyu threw the letter of intent in his hand directly.
Phelps' face turned blue, "You'll regret it! But you have to know that after a few months your pickup trucks are unsalable, it's hard to say!"
Li Fanyu flicked the non-existent dust on his body, and didn't even look at him: "That's my own business, it has nothing to do with you." I still have to catch a plane, so I won't accompany you. Our company's pure water is free, so let's do it. ”
Seeing Li Fanyu get up and leave directly, Phelps slapped the table fiercely.
……
"Jinnyima doesn't know what her last name is. ”
got on the bus to the airport, Li Fanyu was very angry.
However, if you think about it, you also feel that if you want to sell the F150 in the US market, Karman Motors is really a big threat.
Because in his memory, the previous time and space F150 sold well in the North American market, so when he decided to develop this model, he did not ask Mason to do a detailed investigation of the market. The history of sweeping the market with the best quality models has developed the habit of Li Fanyu not investigating competing models.
Now it seems that the situation in the pickup truck market in the United States is quite special.
As Phelps said, Carman's models dominate the top spots in the pickup sales charts. And even if the F150 is excellent, after all, it is still the first debut in this time and space, and it is definitely a big hidden danger to really face their attack.
Thinking of this, Li Fanyu dialed Mason's phone. He instructed Taga to analyze the target market in advance, summarize the competition that the F150 may face after it rolls off the assembly line, and find out countermeasures.
Los Angeles.
Li Fan stood blankly outside a dilapidated small warehouse, holding grass in his heart.
He was really convinced.
Probably to save money, Stewart and Clarkson actually found such a place where birds don't as a temporary office location.
This place is easy for him to find.
And this dilapidated little warehouse in front of him, I don't know what kind of secret stronghold of criminals I thought it was! When the taxi driver sent him over just now, Li Fanyu saw him secretly dialing "911......
It wasn't until he called Stewart that the door to the warehouse was pulled open from the inside. As far as I looked, I saw Clarkson's bloodshot eyes and his hair shiny.
"Hello Fool, welcome!"
This thing stepped forward to shake hands and almost smoked Li Fan's foolishness.
He wrinkled his nose and said in disgust, "Jamie, how long has it been since you took a shower! Also, how did you find such a place?"
Clarkson smiled in return, "Well, three or four days...... You see, we're discussing the content of the show, so there's no time to take a shower! Haha, isn't this for the convenience of storing equipment? After we got the content of the show, we drove directly from here to the filming location. If it is shipped to Colorado, it will have to be tossed. Isn't this trying to save you some money!"
Seeing Li Fanyu sniffling, he quickly fanned his coat, and an even greater sour smell of sweat came out, "Haha, please come in my boss." But the flavor inside could be bigger,"
When Li Fanyu walked into this small warehouse, he found that a bunch of people had gathered inside.
Among the people who were watching him, he quickly locked on two of them.
Suddenly, a feeling of "freedom in the dark" arose from my heart.
These two people are the other two of the three in the history before him!
The little one is Richard Hammond. The fatter one was James May.
Seeing that Li Fanyu set his eyes on these two as soon as he entered the room, Clarkson hurriedly introduced Li Fanyu, "Yu, these two are the partners I found according to your request! Richard, James, this is the investor of our show, Mr. Li Fanyu from China." ”
"Hello!" "Hello!"
When shaking hands with these two, Li Fanyu was actually quite awkward in his heart. In the previous time and space, he already knew a lot about the two through the show, but now he had to pretend to be meeting for the first time.
It's a strange feeling.
I don't know how Clarkson pulled these two people onto the thief ship again on another plane. Li Fanyu didn't bother to ask about this. It is better to say that it is the master of freedom in the dark, and perhaps it can be explained by fate. However, in his opinion, this combination is undoubtedly the most suitable for "Topgear".
After chatting with a few people for a while, Li Fanyu learned about the current situation of the show.
Stewart is now busy figuring out approvals, reaching out to television stations and several major websites to screen out where to focus when the show is filmed.
So the matter of the content of the show was handed over to Clarkson and others.
Now this warehouse includes the director, cinematographer, planner, and lighting.
According to their plan, after determining the content of the program and the filming location, they did not wait for Stewart's side, but started the filming of the program first. After Stewart got the rules and regulations right, he tried to complete the recording of the first three episodes and put them directly.
And the program shooting mainly refers to the location part.
According to Li Fanyu's previous mention to Clarkson, the program team has worked the location.
Regarding this style of sharpening knives without cutting wood, Li Fanyu quite agrees.
If you launch the show early, you will make money sooner.
After a few words of condolence to everyone present, Li Fanyu picked up the preliminary draft of the program content stacked on the table.
At first glance, he instantly felt the urge to vomit blood.
Although it was said that the show would be produced to the highest standards, Nima didn't have to play like that!
You guys are so crazy, can you stop the production cost of five million per episode?!
