Lin Zheng sat on the soft and comfortable sofa in the first-class cabin, his head dozing off little by little. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It's been brewing for so long, and it's really time to make formal contact with NEC, what? Why didn't Lin Zheng fly on his own private jet, you asked? Yadu has two private jets, how can you still do public flights?

This is actually very normal, Lin Zheng's Gulfstream IV-SP and Boeing 737-400 are now in North America, not to mention how troublesome the approval procedures for domestic private jets to apply for international routes are, the expenses and time wasted to transfer back and forth from North America are enough for Lin Zheng to take the entire team to charter a plane, and there are not so many troubles.

It is a core principle to buy a private jet for the convenience of one's own travel, and if it can't bring convenience to oneself at some point, who will use him? And thanks to the Asian financial crisis, this Boeing 747 of the All Nippon Airways international flight has just completed internal adjustments, and the first class cabin is designed to be more luxurious than before, in terms of comfort in the unit space, the comfort of the first class cabin of this Boeing 747 is actually not much worse than its own private jet.

Lin Zheng, whose head was dozing little by little, didn't notice that a forty or fifty-year-old Japanese man who looked very well maintained not far from him had observed him for a long time, and finally, after Lin Zheng opened his eyes, he quickly walked in front of Lin Zheng in small steps, carefully and humbly bent over Lin Zheng again and again, and said politely with a stiff call: "Hello, I'm sorry to disturb you, if I'm not mistaken, you should be Mr. Lin Zhenglin, the chairman of ICQ Company, right?" ”

"You know me?" Lin Zheng frowned slightly.

The Japanese man in front of him, he had no impression at all.

Lin Zheng's answer was tantamount to telling the other party his identity. After confirming that the young man in front of him was really Lin Zheng, the other party became more and more excited and humble: "Hey! We have been using your company's ICQ as office software. It's a great office assistant and I've seen your photos on the ICQ Japan website. So I was very impressed with you, and it was such an honor to be able to meet you on the plane. ”

Oh, I see.

Lin Zheng didn't find it strange, although he was not a frequent visitor to the media, he also appeared in the media from time to time, and it was normal to be remembered by some well-intentioned people, he nodded politely: "Oh, you are ......"

Seeing that Lin Zheng was willing to talk to him, the other party became more and more excited. He didn't even dare to hand Lin Zheng a business card, because he knew very well that his identity and status were not enough, and Lin Zheng's willingness to talk to him had already made him feel extremely honored and proud, and he bowed to Lin Zheng again and again: "I am Kenji Fujita, the Chinese head of Subaru Automobile, what are you ...... Going to Japan to negotiate with the NEC? ”

"Subaru Auto ......" Lin Zheng frowned: "Subaru has investment in our country?" ”

Lin Zheng is very strange, does Subaru have investment in China, why am I not impressed?

Kenji Fujita's face was slightly embarrassed. He also knew that Subaru's business development in China could not be compared with Germany's Volkswagen and France's Citroen, and even compared with his Japanese counterpart Suzuki, he couldn't compare with it, and said a little embarrassed: "Hi." Yes, our Subaru Automobile has cooperated with Guihang in your country, and now the car it produces is called Skylark. Maybe you have some impressions. ”

"Skylark," Lin Zheng nodded abruptly. Speaking of lark and Guihang, he has the impression that China's automobile industry started late. A few years after the official production of the magic capital Volkswagen, the country's overall strategy began to make a big U-turn, a large number of military enterprises began to convert military to civilian, under this huge pressure, the country formally decided to develop the car industry, initially determined the "three large, three small and two micro" industrial pattern, "three" refers to the FAW, the second automobile, SAIC three production bases, "three small" refers to the three production points of Beijing & Beijing, Tianjin & Tianjin, Guangzhou & Zhou, and "two micro" is the military background of the Ordnance Industry Corporation under the enterprise "military to civilian" Alto, The two mini-car projects of Skylark, Jiangbei Alto acquired by Lianchuang Technology, are one of the "two micro-cars".

Skylark this car and Alto, in Japan belong to the same K-CAR light automatic car, belongs to the market fist products, but the performance in the domestic market is completely different, relying on Changan Alto, Alto almost monopolized the A00 level of the mini car market, but at the same time the introduction of Subaru REX in the market performance not only disappointed Subaru cars.

Frowning, Lin Zheng asked Kenji Fujita, "As far as I know, the sales of Skylark cars don't seem to be ideal. ”

Lin Zheng is also a practitioner in the automobile industry, and one of the data he knows is that from 1992 to last year, Guihang lost a full 700 million yuan on the Subaru Skylark project -- a uniform loss of 100 million yuan per year.

"Hey! That's true," Kenji Fujita bowed deeply to Lin Zheng again, and even Lin Zheng felt tired for him: "So last year, Guihang and our Subaru established a joint venture to replace the Skylark car with an electric injection engine with higher power and displacement, and we believe that the new Skylark will definitely have a good performance in the market." ”

"......" Lin Zheng pursed his lips, very disapproving: Skylark? Anyway, in my impression, the Skylark car has never been made.

Kenji Fujita had been paying attention to Lin Zheng's expression, and when he saw Lin Zheng's undisguised disapproving expression, he was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "Mr. Lin, what are you doing...... Don't you think about the future of our car? ”

"You're giving me a reason to be bullish?"

Although I don't know why Lin Zheng asked this, with a feeling of disbelief, Kenji Fujita still replied scientifically: "This ...... We replaced the Skylark with a more powerful EFI engine......"

Why is the lark not successful, Lin Zheng can output a belly of one, two, three, but anyway, in the domestic market, the lark is also one of the competitors of the domestic version of "smartcity", Lin Zheng will be stupid to carefully analyze the reasons for the failure of the lark with Fujita Kenji in detail, he just said one sentence to make Fujita Kenji's face pale: "That's right, but compared to space, power, and configuration, which point of the lark is smartcity's competitor?" ”

That's right, Kenji Fujita reacted at this time, this is not only the boss of ICQ, but also the boss of Jiangbei Alto in the Republic, since the smartcity based on Alto's improvement has been listed, not only the days of Skylark Cars have become more and more sad, but even the days of Changan Alto and Xiali have not become so good, if you say so, doesn't it mean that Skylark Cars has become a failed project again?

In fact, in Kenji Fujita's view, the smartcity produced by Jiangbei Alto is not a smartcity at all, and the authentic smartcity of the American and European versions is actually a mid-rear-drive hatchback, which can be seen as a shrunken micro-face to some extent, but the middle version of the smartcity is an authentic hatchback improved on the basis of Alto, in addition to retaining the appearance and interior of the smartcity to the greatest extent. There is nothing in common with the authentic SmartCity, but there is one thing that Alto and Skylark cannot compare with in any way, that is, the stylish exterior and interior design, ultra-high configuration, and the large interior space that does not match the size of the exterior...... In terms of the actual experience inside, the Forfour version (in fact, it should be called the five-seater version) SmartCity gives passengers an overall feel, and its interior space is not much smaller than that of Beverly.

The most important thing is that smartcity has only been on the market for a long time, with Lin Zheng's seemingly miraculous business methods, not to mention larks, I'm afraid Alto is not their opponent.

"That's a ...... This is really ......" Kenji Fujita, whose face was pale in a hurry, really panicked, and forgot to control his voice for a while, causing the other passengers in the first class to frequently turn their eyes and roll their eyes.

This is a flight from the capital of the Republic to Tokyo, Japan, and the passengers on the plane are mainly Japanese tourists who come to China for tourism and business people who come to China for business.

But at this time, Kenji Fujita still took care of the white eyes and sideways eyes of these compatriots? Beads of sweat crackled down, and he said to Lin Zheng in a trembling voice: "Can you please help us?" ”

Tut...... Lin Zheng was speechless when he said this, he really couldn't understand what Kenji Fujita's mind was thinking: "I'm the boss of your competitor, do you think I'll help you?" ”

As soon as Lin Zheng said this, Kenji Fujita also realized that his request was too reckless and out of place, yes, as a competitor of the lark, how could Lin Zheng come to help him? But he was not reconciled to this, as the top person in charge of Subaru Motors in China, Skylark Motors, who had a failure experience, if it failed again, he Fujita Kenji had no other way to go except to resign.

He is not reconciled, not at all!

In Fujita's view, the lark's failure was not his own fault, but the result of Guihang's damned, rigid system......

An idea suddenly popped up in Kenji Fujita's head: If the cooperation between Subaru and Alto Jiangbei can be promoted, won't the fate of Subaru be reversed?

As soon as this thought came out, it coiled in Kenji Fujita's heart like a devil, and refused to disperse for a long time. (To be continued.) )
