Chapter 152: Auto Show Opening Ceremony

readx;? As the date of the auto show approaches, more and more people are gathering in the neighborhood where the exhibition hall is located. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info saw the local people who saw the business opportunities and also came up with various ways to make money.

One of the most distinctive is some souvenirs made by welding small parts of automobiles. Some are Transformers, some are bulb warriors. Although the polishing is not very detailed, the metalpunk feeling is very freehand.

The bustling streets are mixed with different colors of hair, different colors of pupils, and different colors of skin tones. This neighborhood, which is full of car posters, adds a metropolis flavor.

It's like going back in time, back to 20 years ago.

Li Fanyu and Cheng Ke walked around leisurely for a day, and neither of them spoke much.

After being "hurt" by 10,000 tons, she finally learned to be smart, and when she went to bed at night, she borrowed a big pillow from the hotel to separate the two. In this way, when you want to find a hug in the middle of the night, you can avoid the potential danger of being resisted.

Li Fanyu was also embarrassed, not because he had any crooked thoughts about Cheng Ke, but because he was really embarrassed before.

After a night without saying anything, Li Fanyu changed into a suit and leather shoes early in the morning, and Cheng Ke, who was dressed in casual jeans, came to the convention and exhibition center early.

Today is the official start of the 2016 North American Auto Show.

The major car companies will gather here, and the organizer, Mr. Millsap, chairman of the Detroit Auto Dealers Association, will officiate at the opening ceremony at 8:30.

Because it was a bit cloudy today, the ceremony that was originally planned to be arranged outside the venue was temporarily moved to the exhibition hall.

At 8:30 a.m., a gray-haired Millsap took to the stage in a blue striped suit. Looking at nearly 1,000 automobile practitioners and tourists from all over the world, they waved slightly.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the City of Cars!"

He looked at the crowded heads, and was in a trance for a while, and sighed a little: "Friends, many unexpected things are happening in this world every day. However, in the endless history, what people are most unexpected is because of the birth of a machine like a car.

It has changed our mobility, changed our lives, and even shortened the physical distance and thus expanded the breadth of life. It's no exaggeration to say that it changed the world.

In fact, even Mr. Karl Benz and Mr. Dyler may not have imagined that their inventions and attempts would usher in an era of total change for human society, which had been advancing with the help of animal power.

For more than a century, the car has brought us too many unexpected changes, and at the same time, it has also brought us too many unexpected problems.

But that's why we're here for this opportunity.

The North American Auto Show has been committed to advocating for better changes in the automotive industry and solving existing problems.

This is an open platform and an opportunity for communication.

On behalf of the Automobile Dealers Association, on behalf of the American Automobile Association, and on behalf of the city of Detroit, I would like to welcome you all and wish you a pleasant 10 days.

Thank you again for coming, and God bless you. ā€

The audience applauded thunderously.

Spokespeople from several major manufacturers around the world then took the stage to give short speeches, openly and secretly brushing up the prestige of their own brands.

It wasn't until about 10 o'clock in the morning that the opening ceremony ended with a round of applause.

Li Fanyu wiped the sweat on his head and returned to his booth, and Cheng Ke's face was also flushed. Seeing Li Fanyu looking at himself, he pursed his lips and turned his face away.

Hmph, big rascal.

Li Fanyu shook his head, sat directly on the hood of the car, and looked boredly at the crowd of people coming and going in front of the booth.

Today is the opening ceremony, and the people who came were tourists and journalists. It's all about looking at it and not buying it, so the enthusiasm for this product is not high.

At the end of the opening ceremony, the organizers announced that the auto show will be held in the format of the theme. In addition to today's opening ceremony, seven themes will be held in seven days starting tomorrow.

These themes are a mix of models and technologies from various categories, and the combination of elements of each booth is introduced to visitors and dealer suppliers.

Then, in the last two days of the exhibition, there will be a discussion dinner to decide on the intention of cooperation. In fact, the cooperation of some big brands has been decided before the auto show. This dinner is mainly for small and medium-sized car companies.

These seven themes, which revolve around the development process from the invention of the automobile to the present, almost show the century-old history of the automobile.

The theme of the first day is the golden age of inventors. The next day, out of the age of horses. On the third day, the engine of the empire. Day 4, The Power of Innovation. Day 5, the extension of dreams. Day 6, farther away. Day 7, unbeatable speed.

When Li Fanyu applied for the booth, the nature of the booth was filled in with a supercar racing car, so the publicity for him was scheduled for the seventh day.

Just when Li Fanyu was bored, he heard a shout, and a cheer rose in the center of the booth in the outer circle.

Li Fan looked at it and was stunned, I was stunned, can the auto show still be so fun?

It turned out that in the aisle in the middle of the booth, the staff had already brought a lot of barbecue grills, and a large group of people were gathering there.

Look at this urine, it's going to be opened!

"Let's take a look?" Li Fanyu turned around and asked Cheng Ke's opinion.

Cheng Ke had already paid attention to that side, she jumped out of the car, "Okay! I'll ask if anyone can participate." ā€

After a while, she turned back and said excitedly: "Wow! Brother Fan, you can move the barbecue grill to our booth and start a self-help yourself!"

It turned out that this was a barbecue car show unique to the North American auto show.

The organizer provided cutlery and barbecue grills, and the booth prepared its own materials for the barbecue.

In this way, the outdoor booth is like a home garden party in the United States. Regardless of whether you are a tourist, a journalist or a car dealer, when you see the car you are interested in, you will walk over and chat with the exhibitor about the car or business while eating and drinking.

What Li Fanyu didn't know was that this method has been carried out for nearly 15 years and has formed the most beautiful feature of the North American Auto Show. There are many foreign tourists who come for this atmosphere.

I have to say, in the absence of theme publicity. It's a great way to get rid of boredom and attract business.

So the two immediately divided into two ways, Li Fanyu went to get the grill, charcoal fire and tableware, and Cheng Ke went out to buy ingredients and raw materials.

For a while, the two guys who came to participate in the auto show had a kind of spring outing. To be continued.
