Chapter 863: Poor Ghosts Dare to Pretend to Be Big?

"What company did you say people from?" Seeing that her son hung up the phone, Yang Xiuyu asked with a strange face. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Fiat, well, they're talking about cooperation with Nanqi Group right now."

"What are they looking for from you?" Yang Xiuyu became more and more strange.

"Who knows," this question was also Lin Zheng's curiosity, scratching his head, Lin Zheng put Paul. Cantarella came to him for the following reason: "Could it be that they want to work with us on the car audio system?" ”

After several years of development, Lianchuang Technology in the field of car audio system is also emerging, the launch of a series of car audio equipment in the low-end car audio system to gain a firm foothold, for any car brand, the largest sales can only be cheap cheap cars, high sales naturally means that the demand for cheap audio systems is very high, as the largest production capacity of the Fiat Group, Fiat cars want to use cheaper audio systems is understandable.

Yang Xiuyu naturally knew this, and recognized her son's judgment, nodded and said, "It can only be like this." ”

But when Paul. When Cantarella solemnly explained that Fiat Group intended to cooperate with Lianchuang Technology, Lin Zheng was shocked and asked Paul in disbelief. Cantarella asked, "Mr. Cantarella, what do you say...... Is Fiat Group willing to cooperate with Lianchuang Technology in automotive technology? ”

"That's right," Paul ∝, w△ww. Cantarella nodded elegantly: "We know that Mr. Lin is interested in making a difference in the field of automobile manufacturing, and the Fiat Group is willing to provide you with some help within its ability." ”

As he said this, Paul. Cantarella didn't think with certainty that Lin Zheng would be excited and impatient, like his compatriots. On the contrary, Paul. Cantarella mobilized all her energy to observe every slight change in Lin Zheng's face. Lest I miss a trace.

For Lin Zheng, he really didn't dare to take it lightly. This is the master who can make a name for himself in the United States, where the market is most competitive, and he and his compatriots are basically people of two worlds. Cantarella looked down on the bureaucrats of the Nanqi Group, but he did not dare to underestimate Lin Zheng in the slightest.

Lin Zheng's reaction was indeed like Paul's. Cantarella frowned slightly, as she expected, thinking about Paul. Cantarella's words were quick to judge Paul. What Cantarella, or the Fiat Group, really meant......

"Mr. Cantarella," he muttered for more than a minute. Lin Zheng finally spoke slowly: "I know that the Fiat Group is cooperating with my country's Nanqi Group, and even the models of cooperation have been determined: three cars will be launched on the 178 platform, and the Fiat Group will cooperate with Lianchuang Technology, I don't know how your company is going to explain to the Nanqi Group?" ”

Damn it! I knew that there must be no door on the mouth of the pigs of the Nanqi Group! Hearing Lin Zheng's words, Paul. Cantarella suddenly cursed in his heart.

That's right, the agreement reached between the Fiat Group and the Nanqi Group is indeed to launch three cars on the 178 platform, and even the names are decided, namely Palio, Sienna and Weekend Wind. But this news should be the highest level of confidentiality between the two sides, if it weren't for the fact that those bureaucrats of the Nanqi Group didn't keep the door in their mouths and didn't have the slightest sense of confidentiality in their hearts, how could Lin Zheng know? !

Scolding to scolding. Paul's question on Lin Zheng. Cantarella still had to hurry up to explain, he waved his hand and said, "Mr. Lin, you misunderstood what I meant. The Fiat Group is not trying to establish a joint venture plant with you, Fiat has the most complete product range in the world. We have Fiat for cheap national cars and we have Alfa for sporty cars. Romeo. We have Lancia for luxury cars, Maserati and Ferrari for luxury sports cars and supercars, and we can provide them with a series of services such as vehicle design, vehicle tuning, technology and patent transfer. ”

Understood, the Fiat Group dared to fight this idea!

Buy technology from Fiat? This is a good idea, Lin Zheng has not thought of buying technology from Ford before, but at this point, Lin Zheng's old friend, partner, and chairman of Ford Motor, Bill . Ford's attitude is very resolute: we can cooperate, but transfer technology? Don't even think about it!

The reason why the Fiat Group is willing to transfer technology is probably because of the current poor financial situation, right? Thinking of this, Lin Zheng secretly rejoiced in his heart: The buddy who lost it worked hard after receiving your call, otherwise how could he know that he owned Ferrari and Alpha. How can the Fiat Group, a high-end luxury brand such as Romeo and Maserati, fall into such a serious state of loss?

"Cooperation, of course, can be considered, but Fiat's technology is the most advanced in Europe?" Lin Zheng smiled when he heard this, and slowly shook his head: "Mr. Cantarella, not necessarily, right?" A company that has not made technological improvements in 16 years can say that its technology is the most advanced? ”

How could he know about the fact that he had not carried out technical transformation for 16 years? Paul. Cantarella has changed!

16 years without technical transformation is indeed the biggest shortcoming of Fiat cars, compared with their European counterparts, Fiat cars seem to be an indifferent to technology update enterprises, looking at the global car world, automobile companies about an average of 11 years to carry out a comprehensive upgrade and improvement of their own technology, which European and American automobile companies technology upgrading time is a little slower, about 13 years, Japanese car companies technology upgrading time is relatively short, about 10 years, Fiat cars are a strange thing, and it takes them a long 16 years to update their technology!

In 16 years, this greatly exceeds the time span of global automobile manufacturers to upgrade their technology, and it can even be said that Japanese automobile companies have upgraded their technology three times, and Fiat's second technology upgrading work has not yet been completed.

But the slow upgrade to Fiat is not only this, another very serious side effect is up to 200 days of car inventory time, which greatly exceeds the 50~65 days of car inventory period in the global car industry, as for the "0 inventory" concept proposed by Toyota...... Ahem, that's just too harsh for the Italians.

His face changed, Paul. Cantarella is also the CEO of the Fiat Group, and the ability to open his mouth to tell nonsense is naturally to open his mouth. Cantarella said to Lin Zheng with a confident face: "That's right, the technological upgrading of Fiat cars is indeed a little slow, but Fiat's technology is still the world's top ......."

"I don't think so," Lin Zheng said very disagreeably to Paul. Cantarella interrupted him with a face, since everyone is in preliminary communication now, let's quickly throw the face aside or something, and look at Paul. Cantarella, Lin Zheng said unceremoniously: "I have an automobile manufacturing company, so I know that a very serious side effect of slow technology upgrading is the long product inventory time, I remember I read it on a European document, it seems that your company's car inventory cycle is 200 days?" ”

He looked at Paul with pity. Cantarella, Lin Zheng shook his head: "It's been nearly 7 months." ”

Paul. Cantarella's face changed again, and he was about to speak, but Lin Zheng didn't give him a chance to continue, and continued: "We all know that the extension of the car inventory time will directly lead to a decline in the profitability of the enterprise, I don't know what the sales profitability of Fiat cars is, but I am sure that with this long inventory period and your company's expensive labor costs, your company's sales profitability will definitely not exceed 0.5%, which can be much lower than the sales profitability of more than 5% in the global car industry...... Mr. Cantarella, am I right? ”

Paul. Cantarella already had an embarrassed look on his face.

He couldn't deny what Lin Zheng said, and even on the basis of what Lin Zheng said, Fiat Cars was still facing an extremely embarrassing situation: although Fiat Cars' sales ranked 7th in the world car industry, it ranked first in the world in terms of net profit; Looking at the world's top 10 automakers, Fiat's debt ratio is more than four times that of other automakers, and the poor business situation has caused Fiat's share price to fall for nearly a year, and the decline has been more than 15%.

Although Paul. Cantarella was sure that Lin Zheng would not know these core secrets of the Fiat Group, but he didn't need to know too much detail, as long as he knew a general situation, it was enough for Lin Zheng to make a judgment.

Fortunately, Lin Zheng did not mean to beat the water dogs, speaking from his heart, although the situation of the Fiat Group is very bad, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and the technology of others is still the top in the world, this is by no means a reason for his contempt for others, and the topic then changed. "Of course, I admit that although the Fiat Group is in a bit of a bad situation at the moment, I still have to look up in terms of the overall level of technology...... If Fiat is willing to provide us with some help on a fair basis, I myself am willing to pay some price. ”

Hush......

Hearing Lin Zheng's words, Paul. Cantarella resisted the urge to breathe a sigh of strength, and almost burst into tears of excitement: Nima, this sentence is what I want to hear today!

"Of course, I never doubted Fiat's technology," said Paul, who thought he could finally give a satisfactory explanation to Mr. Chairman. Cantarella, a little impatient, asked Lin Zheng, "Mr. Lin, you made a right decision......

"Sorry ......" in Paul. Under Cantarella's stunned gaze, Lin Zheng raised his hand to interrupt him......
