Chapter 446: Ferrari Localization
At this time, Bill. Ford, as the successor of Ford Motor Group, took over the management of Ford Motor Group, and finally obtained the unanimous approval of the Board of Directors. Now no one doubts Bill anymore. Whether Ford will make some reckless decisions because he is too young to cause everyone's money bag to deflat, everyone believes that such a successor with an amazing business sense will definitely have exciting achievements for the growth of the Ford Group.
Capital is like this, whoever can bring them profits is their God, and on the contrary, they will be discarded like a rag.
While these new Ford Group cars have achieved brilliant sales results, more people are also wondering why the front and rear logos of these Ford Group cars are different? How is the car logo on the back a sign that I have never seen before? What the hell is the Ford Group doing?
At this time, the Ford Group and Alice (USA) Group jointly held a press conference, announcing the strategic cooperation agreement between the two companies in a high-profile manner, and announced to the media that the six models that were almost sold out and the company was producing at full capacity were officially jointly developed by the two groups.
As soon as the word came out, everyone was shocked! No one would have thought that Alice Group, which has always had a good eye and achievements in the high-tech industry, would have directly intervened in the American automobile market without knowing it, and it was only the first appearance that caused such an amazing effect. It seems that GM, Chrysler, Toyota, Honda, Nissan, and other large American and Japanese automobile groups are likely to have a bad time in the future.
Since these six new cars of the Ford Group rolled off the assembly line and went on the market in a high-profile manner, the life of these companies is not so good now! The U.S. auto market is only that big, and Ford's rising market share is naturally snatched from the bowls of these automakers.
As for the fact that the car of Alice Group in China has been rolled off the assembly line, all the major media have just said it, who would have thought that such a miraculous thing would happen there?
What everyone knows is that Aili Group and Ford Group have reached a strategic cooperation agreement; What everyone doesn't know is that Alice also reached a strategic cooperation agreement with Ferrari Group today.
With the design of the few Ferrari cars that he remembered that had not yet come out, Zhang Lan vigorously waved the temptation in his hand that penetrated into his soul like the song of the enchanting kraken. In the face of such excellent industrial design, Ferrari also had to bow its noble head.
This is compared to the high-profile announcement of a strategic partnership agreement with the Ford Group. The partnership with Ferrari is much more low-key. After all, most of the cars of the Ford Group are for the general public, and letting the people know as much as possible is the king; And the owners of Ferrari, most of them are the world's top rich, well. Of course, there are also the descendants of various wealthy people, with whom Ferrari has a good connection, and naturally there is no need for much fanfare, even before the new car is officially released. They need to be informed, and these rich people who don't care about money will be waving money and waiting to buy it.
Although low-key, the depth of cooperation between Alice Group and Ferrari is no less than that of Ford, and under the hands of Ferrari Group's experienced supercar designers, these models that emerged from Zhang Lan's hands and were originally launched by Ferrari in a few years were born in advance.
These new Ferrari Group models, like the models imported by Ford from the Alice Group, all adopt the design of double logos, that is, the front is Garrado and the back is Longxuan. As for why the logo of the "Kirin" series was not used. Of course, this is very simple, the "Kirin" is positioned in the middle and high-end cars, which does not match the positioning of Ferrari, and the "Longxuan" is originally positioned as a luxury car brand, what a good opportunity is this, and is there a more suitable opportunity than taking this opportunity to launch the "Longxuan" series of models?
According to the original agreement, in addition to being produced at Ferrari's factory, these cars can also be produced by the Alice Group in China, but the models produced in the Alice (China) Group are only allowed to be sold in Chinese mainland. This one may seem unfair. But Zhang Lan secretly snickered on the side: This means that he will monopolize the entire Ferrari market in China in the future!
As compensation to the Alice Group, the Ferrari Group agreed that the Alice Group could adjust the prices of these Ferrari models produced in China within an appropriate range, which in turn allowed the Alice Group to reduce the prices of these cars produced in China.
I have to say. Ferrari underestimated the purchasing power of the Chinese and the richness of the Chinese after the reform and opening up, or the extent to which the Chinese liked Ferrari as a car brand. There were no Ferrari cars on sale in the mainland before, not that no one bought them, but that all these cars needed to be imported from abroad, and the country had a certain quota for how many cars to import from abroad every year, and most of the imported cars were some high-end cars. There are very few quotas for the import of real luxury cars, and some of them are luxury cars such as Mercedes-Benz and BMW. As for supercars such as Ferrari and Lamborghini, there is not one, and there is an occasional Ferrari running on the land of China, but it is obtained from smuggling channels by capable people who occupy both official and commercial sides, which naturally makes Ferrari underestimate the purchasing power of the Chinese market.
In fact, if it weren't for the influence of these factors, after more than ten years of reform and opening up, the economy has been invigorated, and there are still many people in the mainland who can afford Ferrari and want to buy Ferrari, but the road is blocked.
Now it's different, Ferrari's latest model is directly produced in China, and the Ferrari that has achieved domestic production will naturally not account for the import quota, and those rich people who want to buy Ferrari now have an opportunity to buy Ferrari at their doorstep, how can they not be ecstatic?
After the Alice Group launched its own Ferrari-Alice F430,599GTB produced in cooperation with Ferrari, only in the three months from the autumn to the Chinese New Year, the two cars were sold 126 units in the mainland, not only Zhang Lan did not expect it, but even the Ferrari Group headquarters was dumbfounded!
After reacting, the Ferrari Group was stunned, they did not expect that such a market that was not valued by them would have such a strong purchasing power! You know, now Ferrari's annual production is only more than 4,000 units, and it has not yet reached the scale of more than 5,000 annual production in a few years' history, so the output of thousands of units is for Ferrari fans all over the world to buy, and more than 100 supercars sold in China in three months with a single price of more than 1.8 million yuan, so doesn't a year mean that more than 500 units can be sold, accounting for almost one-eighth of their total production capacity? To Ferrari's eyes, this is simply incredible! Is China really a developing country whose economy is just getting started? Luca. Montezemolo felt his head wander.
And it's not just Luca. Montezemolo dared to be incredible, and Zhang Lan felt incredible, but it was always a fact that the car was sold.
In line with the principle of first-come, first-served in the first frame of these two cars, Zhang Lan deliberately collected the F430 and 599 GTB with the AC0000001 first frame of the two cars, and specially painted the bodies of these two cars in black high-grade metallic paint - although Ferrari is famous for its unique passion and surging Ferrari red, it is Zhang Lan's favorite to represent the mysterious black. As for the Ferrari 612 and Ferrari. Enzo's two models, Zhang Lan is ready to come out in the next two years.
Owning a Ferrari is almost every man's dream, perhaps because of men's natural love for speed, and Zhang Lan is no exception. Zhang Lan, who is about to enter the third year of junior high school, has now reached a height of 1.75 meters, and there is no problem in driving these two cars.
In order to make Zhang Lan drive these two cars more safely, Xiao Chenxi and Alice added an automatic driving system to Zhang Lan in these two cars, and further strengthened the power, with this system, even if these two cars are running wildly on the busy highway at a speed of more than 150 kilometers per hour, they don't have to worry about any danger. Even if Zhang Lan drove these two cars to participate in the black car race underneath, he didn't have to worry about what would go wrong.
This has not changed, in history, Zhang Lan also began to grow crazy in the second year of junior high school, and the height of more than 20 centimeters in a year, the clothes bought in the first half of the year could not be worn in the second half of the year, and even because of the pain in the legs of the rapid growth - that is because the calcium supplement in the body cannot keep up with the growth of too fast.
At that time, Zhang Lan was stupid and didn't know what was going on, and thought that she was too tired from playing crazy, so she didn't care much, and even Yang Zhi didn't care, until later she realized that the reason why her leg hurt was because she grew too fast and caused her to lack calcium. Fortunately, Zhang Zongjun and Yang Zhi were strict at that time, they must sit and stand, and walk with their heads held high, but they did not fall into bad problems such as lap legs, X-shaped legs, figure-eight feet, and bending over and arching their backs.
I didn't know in my previous life, if I allowed to make such a mistake, it would naturally be impossible to let it go again in this life, and Zhang Lan was eating all kinds of calcium tablets to supplement calcium wildly. Although I don't know how much I can absorb what I eat, it's much better than not eating at all in my previous life, right? Zhang Lan thought to herself while pouring calcium tablets into her mouth as if she were eating jelly beans.
Dad and Mom went to the United States, and with Alice with them, they naturally didn't have to worry about what problems would happen to them. Zhang Lan, who was alone at home, was a little bored.
Well, it's also boring, and Mo Liyan, who is in the middle of the summer vacation. (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please log in to the www.qidian.com, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!) )
