In the end, of course, nothing happened, not only was Lin Zheng not half killed, but even ate a fragrant dumpling in the embassy. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

The celebration banquet organized by the embassy is not gorgeous, but it is very lively, working abroad all the year round makes them more aware of what these compatriots who come to foreign countries for business like to eat, all of them are home-cooked meals that everyone likes to eat, and the final finale is the one that everyone has high hopes for...... Dumplings!

Coming out of the embassy, everyone without exception stroked their stomachs and hummed: "When I was at home, I didn't think the dumplings were so delicious, why did I eat so much?" ”

"You don't understand this, right," the happiness on the face of the man next to him touching his stomach: "This is the root of our Chinese, no matter where you go, the people of the big foodie empire will always be the people of the big foodie empire......"

Lin Zheng ate quite modestly, but he also held on, and he killed a whole plate of dumplings by himself, and now he was holding his stomach and squinting his eyes to enjoy the happiness of having his stomach full, but Lao Ren, who was also enjoying his own happiness, stabbed Lin Zheng twice: "Alas, brother, the car ...... It's made by your company, right? ”

Cart? Lin Zheng was a little surprised, looked in the direction of Lao Ren's finger, and immediately smiled: "It's true." ”

A two-seater version of the smartcity swayed slowly from in front of everyone's eyes, compared with the surrounding cars, the fortwo version of the smartcity looks quite happy, and the hybrid logo on the rear of the car made Lin Zheng a little surprised: the sales channel of the smartcity has been rolled to Finland?

"Is it really made by your company?" Lao Ren was a little curious: "How is this car selling?" ”

"It's okay, the production line is basically at full capacity." Lin Zheng said it modestly.

Lao Ren was surprised that such a small car with insects could reach such a large production capacity. In the eyes of Lao Ren, this is really a bit incredible: Europeans have such strange car habits? Anyway, in his opinion, this small car is really nothing good, and it can only seat two people in total. It's so impractical. But such an impractical car can still sell so well, he can only admire Lin Zheng's ability: "Okay, brother." Since they are all at full capacity, have you not considered increasing the production capacity of the next line? ”

"I'm thinking about this." Lin Zheng said very modestly, in fact, this is not the case at all, the former WRC world champion is now ambitiously preparing to achieve the second spring of his life, Waldegaard is preparing to go on not one, but two, he is ready to expand the production capacity of SmartCity to 16 to 180,000 vehicles per year, although Lin Zheng is still a little hesitant to suddenly expand the scale to such an extent, but Waldegaard is full of confidence.

However, this Fortwo version of the Smartcity seen on the street. It aroused Lin Zheng's thoughts: should he personally go to see the people's reaction to this car?

……………………

The smartcity sales store in Helsinki is a separate sales store, and does not go through the sales channels of Ford cars, Lin Zheng stood outside the door of this sales store and looked at the dealership, looking in from the huge floor-to-ceiling window, the area inside is not large, it is more than 200 less than 300 square meters, and there are various colors of fortwo and forfour versions of smartcity in the store, and there are several ladies in the store who are looking at the car, It can be seen that business is good.

Probably because Lin Zheng had been standing outside for a long time and attracted the attention of the staff in the store. A staff member who should be in his 40s with a big belly came out of it and greeted Lin Zheng warmly: "! %οΏ₯#οΏ₯……#%……”

Dude is estimated to weigh more than 220 pounds, right?

"Can I speak English?" Lin Zheng was a little embarrassed, the other party should have spoken Finnish...... Whether it was Finnish or not, he didn't understand a word anyway.

Dude is fat. But his ability is really good, and when he heard Lin Zheng talking to himself in English, he immediately changed to English: "Sir." Need to come in and take a break? ”

Only this first meeting, the smartcity dealer left a deep impression on Lin Zheng: they were not here to push the product to themselves. Instead, beckon yourself to come in and take a break, to sit down.

Thinking of the nostrils of the god car salesmen he had experienced, Lin Zheng suddenly felt a sense of kin: this attitude is better than the god car, it is simply heaven and earth.

"Is that okay?" Lin Zheng seemed a little embarrassed.

"Absolutely." Seeing Lin Zheng's appearance, the fat brother smiled: "Sir, are you here to travel to Helsinki?" ”

"Tourism?" Lin Zheng nodded: "Sort of." ”

"Traveling to Finland is definitely the right decision for you," the fat brother gave a thumbs up, not knowing what modesty was at all, and boasted to Lin Zheng with a big grin: "Helsinki is a good place, and the Gulf of Finland at this time is simply God's gift to the world...... Oh, you can call me Stubb. ”

"Hello, my name is Lin."

"Lin?" The fat man Stubb smacked this pronunciation in his mouth and looked at Lin Zheng in surprise: "Are you Chinese?" I thought you were Japanese...... Oh, sorry, I didn't mean anything else, it's just that it's hard for us to distinguish between Chinese and Japanese, so ......"

"I understand," Lin Zheng nodded with a smile, he had long since passed the time when others were angry when they mistook their nationality, and said to Stubb with a smile: "It's really difficult for Europeans to distinguish between Asians, just like for me to distinguish between Caucasians." ”

"That's right, that's what it means," Stubb laughed happily, "Friend, what do you want to drink?" I have good coffee and black tea here...... Oh, I remember you Chinese like to drink tea? I'm sorry because I rarely get to meet Chinese, so I don't have tea ...... here."

"Whatever you want," Lin Zheng was really curious about the fat guy: "Hey, Mr. Stubb, you know I'm a tourist, it's impossible to ......"

"I understand what you mean," before Lin Zheng finished speaking, Stubb smiled and waved his hand: "I don't have any intention of selling to you, I just see that you seem to be a little tired, so ...... Well, I hope you will have a happy and enjoyable experience when you return to your home country and tell people about your trip to Finland. ”

This guy ......

When a businessman invites a tourist to come in and sit, is it really to come in and sit down, not to promote his own products? Lin Zheng also smiled: If his dealers are all of this quality, don't say that there are 2 new production lines, and 4 new ones are no problem.

He honestly and unceremoniously followed the fat guy in, and asked curiously as he walked, "What kind of car are you selling here?" smartcity? I've never heard of this brand before. ”

Stubb was a little strange: "Don't you have this car in your country?" ”

"Nope."

"Oh, then it's no wonder," Stubble was suddenly relieved, pointing to one of them and said to Lin Zheng: "This car is called smartcity, it is a product of an American car manufacturer, this is a small and flexible vehicle positioned for urban commuting, this is a two-seater fortwo version, this is a four-seater forfour version...... Hey, dude, you wouldn't expect it, they also have hybrid models. ”

"Isn't it?" Lin Zheng appropriately showed his surprise: "Hybrid? You're talking about something similar to the Toyota Prius? ”

"You know the Prius? Oh, by the way, your Republic and Japan are both in Asia, and it's not strange to know the Prius," Stubb was a little surprised at first, but he was immediately relieved, and then pointed to one of the four-seater forfour versions and said to Lin Zheng: "This car is more powerful than the Prius, and the comprehensive fuel consumption of the Prius is more than 5 liters, but the fuel consumption of this car is only a little more than 3 liters......"

"But it's much smaller than the Prius." Lin Zheng frowned, perfectly playing the role of a somewhat picky consumer.

"Yes, it does look smaller than the Prius, but Tesla borrowed from Honda's 'machine space minimization, Ride space maximization', don't look at the size of this car, but the space inside will make you unbelievable, make you feel that this is not at all an A00 level mini car can create the interior space, the most important thing is that it is really fuel-efficient, even the conventional fuel-powered version of the car is also very fuel-efficient, you know, my store has only been open for less than 2 months, and more than 130 cars have been sold. ”

Isn't that an average of sixty or seventy cars sold a month? Lin Zheng was really a little surprised: "So many? ”

Sixty or seventy units sold in a single month may not sound like much, but if you know that Ford's average monthly sales in 4S stores in North America are only 30 units, you will be surprised by this number: although SmartCity is an A00 class mini car, the profit margin is much lower than the average profit margin of Ford's various products, but the doubling of sales is enough to offset this profit difference; Not to mention the rent of the store, a Ford 4S store has an average area of 800 square meters, while the area of this smartcity sales store can be 280 square meters, and the rent is much more advantageous than the Ford 4S store.

"You're surprised, aren't you?" Lin Zheng's surprised expression made Stubb very proud.

"I'm really surprised," Lin Zheng nodded, as if he wanted to say something, but hesitated again.

Stubb immediately realized what Lin Zheng wanted to say, and asked with a smile: "Do you think that smartcity is just a small brand with no reputation, how can it have such good sales performance, right?" (To be continued......) i1292
