Jin Xiaoqiang thought of the origin of this Qoros 9, and couldn't help but sigh at the strong inertia of history, you must know that this car in the last life, and the police in the United States, really have some origins!
It turns out that the original model of this Qoros 9 is the 2012 Buick Boulevard belonging to General Motors, but later GM divided him into Chevrolet CAPRICE in the United States, and before he was reborn and crossed, this car also defeated Ford's new generation of Taurus police car in one fell swoop because of its powerful performance, as well as Chrysler's Challenger police car, thus seizing the favor of the American police and replacing Ford's Victoria Crown in the United States. Become the standard car of the new generation of American police!
It's just that I didn't expect that in this life, such a thing actually happened in advance because of the sudden appearance of Huayang Power.
"Alright! Nick, I probably understand what you mean, you want to use our Qoros 91 to compete with Ford's Taurus and Kalesler challengers, so as to win orders from the US police? ”
Jin Xiaoqiang already roughly understood Nick. Reilly meant, but he knew that it must be followed by very harsh terms.
"Yes, Misterkin, think about it, with the influence of our General Motors on the U.S. government and the state governments, it is not very difficult for the police to use this car as a police car, there are currently hundreds of thousands of police cars in the United States, and they will be updated at a rate of about 80,000 every year. If we can dominate the market for ten years like Ford's Victoria Crown, this is more than a million sales, and you must know that the price of such modified police cars is not cheap, and the starting price has now been raised by Ford to 62,000 US dollars, and if you add some other more high-end modified equipment, then at least 80,000 US dollars or even higher prices will be able to buy one.
How's that for a multi-billion dollar business? Misterkin, aren't you tempted? ”
Nick. A sly smile appeared on Reilly's face, indeed this bait is too fragrant, ordinary people, it is really unbearable.
Even if a police car is $60,000, then if it sells a million units, it will be $6 billion, plus the cost of regular maintenance and maintenance every year?
You must know that in the United States, the later maintenance and maintenance, not only the labor cost is expensive, but the price of other parts is also expensive, and because it is a police car, it is inevitable that there will be frequent bumps, and such a professionally modified police car can not be taken to those ordinary repair shops to repair, it must be necessary to go to the maintenance outlets formulated by General to repair, and this is a lot of money.
This miscellaneous addition is really almost a purchase of more than 10 billion yuan, of course, provided that your model, like Ford's Victoria Crown, can dominate the market for more than ten years.
Even if you can't do it, then at least you have to take the lion's share in this market, and the biggest advantage of this business is that you don't have to worry about it at all, your buyers will pay for it, you must know that these costs will eventually have to be paid by the governments of the US states, which are all American taxpayers' money, and the US government uses them, but it has always been not distressed.
And as long as you have a good relationship with the person in charge of procurement, such buying and selling will continue to come in the future.
You must know that within the U.S. government, there is not only such a law enforcement agency as the police inspector, but also the FI, NASA, ICE, the National Food and Drug Administration, and so on. …,
Moreover, in order to show the characteristics of law enforcement agencies, the vehicles they generally use on duty when they go out on duty are similar models to police cars, so as to avoid misunderstandings with the police during law enforcement and unnecessary accidental injuries.
So don't look at the annual purchase volume of the American police, which accounts for 60,000 to 80,000 vehicles, but if you can really get the majority of the American police, then it will definitely play a considerable demonstration role.
At that time, those messy law enforcement departments, if they all come to purchase, then they will get 100,000 or even more orders a year, but maybe they can't say!
And if all you want is a modified vehicle, then you can really make a lot of money at that time, and you can make more than a billion sales a year, and you can make hundreds of millions of dollars by throwing out various expenses.
This is really a pie falling from the sky, if you don't know how to pick it up, then he Jin Xiaoqiang is really a big idiot!
"Alright! I'll admit it, it's a good sale, but Nick, I guess GM isn't going to give up this part of the profit for nothing, right? ”
Jin Xiaoqiang asked with a smile, Nick, I have blown this purchase before, but GM is definitely not a good man and a woman, such a good buy and sell, they must have their own conditions, and they will not let themselves eat alone in vain.
"Hehe, it's really a smart person, I like to talk about business with smart people. Misterkin, as you know, at the moment Qoros is our joint venture product, and we have an assembly plant in the United States. The specific engine and transmission parts are all manufactured and shipped from the Celestial Empire to the United States, and then we assemble them, to be honest, if the situation allows, I would even like to move the entire production line to the Celestial Empire, and you also know that the damn labor costs in the United States are too expensive. But sometimes, circumstances don't allow us to do that, and if we do, the U.S. government will definitely get us in trouble and fire so many workers, and the union bastards will certainly not give up. Of course, there are a thousand things to say, and these are all related to the patriotism and self-esteem of Americans. Do you know what I'm talking about? ”
Nick. Reilly said tentatively to Jin Xiaoqiang, because he didn't know if Jin Xiaoqiang could accept the conditions he proposed next.
After all, he had negotiated with Jin Xiaoqiang a few times before, but he knew that this guy was difficult, if it involved key points, this guy would not give an inch, and his next conditions were really harsh for Jin Xiaoqiang.
"Okay, you go on."
Jin Xiaoqiang said to Nick with an expressionless face, Nick was a little apprehensive, but for the sake of the company's interests, he still gritted his teeth and decided to say, after all, the current GM is no longer the international giant of more than ten years ago, and the profits of hundreds of millions of dollars look small, but the mosquito legs are also meat, not to mention the GM that has been losing money year after year.
"Misterkin, you also know that in terms of official procurement of cars by the Chinese government, although there is no explicit provision that domestic cars must be used, the purchase of domestic cars is already an unwritten unspoken rule in this industry. But Qoros 9 is currently a joint venture between our two sides, and as you know, the international background of the Celestial Empire is somewhat special.
So if you want the Qoros 9 car to enter the list of cars purchased by the police, you have to give him a makeover and hang the signboard of our American car, so we wonder, do you think that Huayang Power can make certain concessions in this regard? ”
Nick tentatively said what he thought in his heart, indeed in the United States, don't look at the current Japanese cars in the market of mid-level cars, but in terms of government car procurement, if it is not some important departments, it does not matter, but once it comes to key government departments, then the Yankees, generally choose domestic cars, regardless of how bad their domestic cars are. …,
"Then you plan to divide our Qoros 9 into that brand?"
Jin Xiaoqiang is still expressionless, Nick. Reilly was even more apprehensive in his heart, before he was deflated a few times before, this guy was such a poker face, could it be that he was going crazy again this time?
"We're going to divide it under the Chevrolet CAPRICE brand, Misterkin, as you know, in the last century, our brand was once the main force of police vehicles, so for the American police, this brand is quite historical."
Seeing that Jin Xiaoqiang didn't show signs of madness, Nick. Reilly also breathed a sigh of relief and continued, to be honest, I don't know when he started, in front of Jin Xiaoqiang, he could always feel the abnormal pressure
"Then if we make concessions, what kind of benefits can we get from Huayang Power?"
Jin Xiaoqiang still asked expressionlessly.
"In terms of the profit of official car procurement, we share 55% of the account, of course, please rest assured that our Chevrolet CAPRICE car will never enter the civilian market circulation, and will not let him and Qoros 9 come to grab jobs!"
Nick. Reilly is a person who understands, but he still feels embarrassed to behave like this in front of Jin Xiaoqiang.
Damn, if you don't have a suitable model and can't let go of so many profits, do you think Lao Tzu will come back to you?
First use your Qoros 9 to support it, and when we get the order for the police car, then we will immediately start to study the new generation of police cars, and then we will kick your Qoros 9 away, Lao Tzu see what else you can do then?
Nick. Reilly thought maliciously in his heart, but he also thought of Jin Xiaoqiang.
"Alright! Your conditions are not impossible, but we must have an additional condition, that is, if the Qoros 9 model gets a considerable number of orders in the government car procurement, then we must sign a long-term contract, so as not to unilaterally develop a new generation of models from GM to bring our car to the status of the police procurement car. ”。 )
