Chapter 215 First Arrival in the Soviet Union
"Yes," Alice nodded, "There's a lot to do, Brother Zhang. ”
"What's there?" Zhang Zongjun found a notepad very seriously, planning to write down everything Alice said.
"It doesn't need to be so formal, does it?" Looking at Zhang Zongjun's serious appearance, Alice couldn't laugh or cry a little, "It's just two or three things?!" ”
"I'm afraid that I'll forget by then, it's not a trivial matter to get a car, and if something accidentally misses me, I'm really going to cry to death. In addition, by the way, I will also learn something from you geniuses," Zhang Zongjun urged, "Say it quickly, I'll remember it well." ”
"The first point," Alice couldn't cry or laugh, so she had to follow Zhang Zongjun's temperament, "For your government, the automobile industry is a big project related to the national economy and people's livelihood, at least now your country has no intention of opening up the automobile production project to private enterprises, all the automobile manufacturers in your country are owned by the state, even SAIC is a project that your government cooperates with Volkswagen of Germany, and the Chinese side also accounts for 50% of the shares." I estimate that it is very difficult for your government to let private enterprises produce cars now, so you will have to run this policy matter personally, and I hope that Brother Zhang can take down our qualifications to produce cars. Of course, I will also arrange for the staff at the US headquarters to do their best to cooperate with you. ”
This is really difficult, even if China's first Geely Group, which began to engage in private enterprise automobile manufacturing, entered the automobile industry in 1997, and did not get the qualification for automobile production, until the end of 2001, Li Shufu officially obtained the qualification to produce cars from the State Economic and Trade Commission.
This is not the most headache, as long as you have a good relationship with the upper echelons of the government, and the upper level has also adopted a tacit attitude towards this kind of thing that benefits the country and the people, otherwise Li Shufu will not be able to produce cars for four years under the name of "black household" without the qualification of automobile production!
The most troublesome thing is that during this period. The government has a strange, even outlandish, rule that people today can't understand at all, that is, private car manufacturers can't make sedans! I don't know which aunt with brain cramps came up with this regulation, anyway, this policy was a headache for Li Shufu for a while, but this guy is also smart. In the end, I came up with a compromise solution, which was to remove the butt of the car!
Didn't you let me build a sedan? Okay, don't build it, you can't say anything if I build a hatchback, right? So everyone knows that although all the cars produced by Geely Automobile were cars. But all without the ass, uh, wrong, without the trunk.
"Okay," Zhang Zongjun nodded, wrote it down carefully, thought about it, and made a suggestion, "I have an idea, how about you take a look?" Why don't you organize a commercial team from your American group, and then we at Alice Motorcycles will join in. Jointly talk to the government about this? ”
For that little dirty thing in China, after so many years in business, Zhang Zongjun naturally understands that many Chinese people can't do things that they can't do by themselves, come to a foreigner to move the same thing, and guarantee that you will do it well immediately, even if it is a guy from a remote place in Africa where birds don't, you can let those officials and gentlemen serve them as ancestors. It's no wonder why so many entrepreneurs change their nationality after success, if they want to further develop their business, it is better to change their nationality!
"It's fine." Alice thought about it, she also knew some of the vices of the Chinese government, and naturally knew that there were some unsatisfactory aspects of the current government, "I'll arrange it later." Let the U.S. organize people to come over as soon as possible to assist you in handling this matter. ”
"Okay," Zhang Zongjun nodded to indicate that he remembered, and asked, "What else?" ”
"Except for this, huh." Alice thought for a while, "By the way, there is also land, the establishment of an automobile factory requires a lot of land resources, this is a big deal, you need to find a suitable piece of land as soon as possible as the construction land of our automobile factory, otherwise we will try our best to get the production line back, but in the end because there is no land, the production line will be rusted there, it will be really big!" ”
"Yes, that's an important question," Mr. Zhang said, marking his notebook with a heavy mark.
"There is another point," Alice thought for a while, "the matter of administrative approval can be slowed down first, but the problem of land must be solved, and the administrative approval can be slowly solved by other means in the future, but there is absolutely no way to delay the land, and we can't afford to delay." ”
"No problem!" Zhang Zongjun agreed, but he was a little puzzled, "What's the use of us asking for land if we can't approve it?" ”
"Let's be flexible!" Alice smiled slyly, "As long as you have land, everything else will be easy!" People always come up with solutions. ”
"How much land do you need?" Zhang Zongjun thought about it, and didn't have much idea of how much land a car factory needed, but this did not prevent Zhang Zongjun from associating: his motorcycle company has now covered an area of hundreds of acres, and the area of the automobile factory must be at least several times that of this, right?
"Now Shanghai Volkswagen covers an area of 3.218 million square meters, about 4,800 acres," Alice made a simple calculation, "Although we won't have such a big one, it will definitely not be smaller than this, at least 4,800 acres, right?" ”
"Huh?" Zhang Zongjun almost bit his tongue: No, you need so much? Not to mention how to approve such a large piece of land, where can I go to find such a large piece of land?
"Isn't it too big?" Zhang Zongjun asked with a sad face, can such a large area be approved?
"No," Alice didn't seem to realize how impressive the number was, "and that's the smallest usable area, and I'm actually worried that it's not enough." ”
Not enough for such a large area? Zhang Zongjun was finally shocked by this girl's jaw.
"Now that the Soviet Union is so chaotic," pressing his chin, Zhang Zongjun told Alice with a serious face, "You must pay attention to safety, even if things don't work out in the end, we will still have a chance in the future, don't do anything this time!" ”
"Dad," Zhang Lan hugged her head depressedly, "We're all leaving, can't you say something auspicious?" ”
After everything was arranged, in October, Alice, Zhang Lan and Xiao Chenxi moved to France and entered the now chaotic Soviet Union.
In view of the extreme instability of the current situation in the Soviet Union, Singh transferred back a ten-member security team from Africa, the main purpose of which was to protect Zhang Lan's safety.
The pick-up team was not as luxurious as it had been when it went to the United States, and outside the airport, in addition to a Mercedes with three long rows, there were a few very ordinary Volga cars that could be found everywhere in the Soviet Union.
Seeing Zhang Lan, Xiao Chenxi, and Alice walking out, Singh and others, who had been waiting at the door of the airport hall, quickly surrounded Zhang Lan and blocked Zhang Lan tightly. Zhang Lan looked around with great effort, well, except for the palm-sized piece of sky above his head, he couldn't see anything else, only the butts of this group of guys in black clothes could be seen.
The group waited for the Mercedes-Benz to come to the front of the Mercedes-Benz, and when they looked at it, the thick bulletproof glass on the Mercedes-Benz window silently announced to Zhang Lan that this was a bulletproof Mercedes-Benz. This is the first time to ride in a bulletproof car, Zhang Lan is curious, this country boy who has never seen much of the world plans to take a good look at the difference between the famous bulletproof Mercedes-Benz bulletproof car and ordinary Mercedes-Benz.
It's a pity that before Zhang Lan could take a second look, the person had been pushed into the car by Elaine and Ma Lian. When I got into the car, the dark sunshades on the windows were quickly pulled tightly, and I couldn't see the inside of the car from the outside. The moment the originally bustling airport closed the door, it quickly became extremely quiet.
In the three rows of seats, Singh and Hammerhead occupied the two seats of the front and co-pilot, respectively, and it was these two guys who were in charge of this in the Soviet Union this time.
Zhang Lan was forced to sit in the middle row of seats by the two T-800 terminators he had summoned. These two little girls were sent to Africa after Zhang Lan was summoned last year, and Zhang Lan named these two little girls Elaine and Marlene respectively, very French names. These two T-800 type terminators are completely different from the violent appearance of Arnold and others, the appearance is a typical Western fifteen or sixteen-year-old little Lori, with delicate skin and cute appearance, and people who don't know will not be moved by the innocent and cute appearance of these two girls, but if you are really moved by the appearance of these two girls, cough cough, congratulations, you are fooled, these two girls are the most murderous masters in Africa, with that timid, harmless and a little shy smile, I don't know how many unlucky guys died at the hands of these two girls, and even the two girls have come from behind, breaking the murder record set by Alice before this, which once made Alice feel quite unhappy!
