Facts have proved that the saying that money can make ghosts push and grind is completely feasible in the United States, as long as there is enough money, not to mention that money can make ghosts push and grind, and there is no problem in letting ghosts push ghosts, under Lin Hongfei's roar, it only took half a day to arrange a charter flight to the Republic the next day...... The price is 30% higher than the charter cost on weekdays, but in Lin Hongfei's view, at this time, as long as the problem can be solved with money, it is not a problem.

"What the hell is going on? These people are ......" Lin Hong flew to Bob. Lutz asked.

In order to learn more about the situation, Lin Hongfei deliberately did not take his own special plane, but got on this Boeing 737 that needed to transfer twice. Lutz asked about these people: and Lin Hongfei, Bob. There are more than 50 people who went to the republic with Lutz, and it took Lin Hongfei a lot of effort to apply for entry procedures for these more than 50 people.

"Don't mention it," said Bob. Lutz smiled bitterly, "These people are my team, I am unemployed, and they are also unemployed, although even if I retire now, my money is enough for me to live comfortably for the rest of my life, but they are not good......"

Lin Hongfei said "oh......" and nodded, finally understanding what was going on.

These more than 50 people are all designers and engineers from the Chrysler Automotive R&D Center. Lutz's team member, Bob Brown. Lutz's personal team, just like a head coach in the field of football will have his own assistant coach, strength and conditioning coach and even team doctor, etc. Lutz is trying to exert all of his energy, even 120%, 150%, as much as he can, but now Bob. Lutz resigned, and naturally they could not stay with Chrysler Automobile.

Lin Hongfei finally understood what Bob was for. Luz would have agreed to his invitation so quickly, and he still needed to find a bowl to eat for so many people...... If you have dozens of people behind you, you are waiting to eat by yourself. I would be so positive.

At this moment, when he knew the truth, Lin Hongfei had a sense of unreal absurdity: so many engineers and designers resigned at the same time. Eaton, the bastard, even dared to approve it, and it's hell that Nima Chrysler cars don't go downhill, what a ...... If you don't die, you won't die!

"But, Lin, don't be too happy, these friends of mine are all very arrogant, although they admire you very much. But it doesn't have to work for your company, you should understand that this trip to your country is more of a visit to your company. "Lest Lin Hongfei misunderstands, Bob. Lutz deliberately explained to Lin Hongfei.

"I understand. Two-way choice! Lin Hongfei nodded, but there was no discouragement in his words. Opposite. There is also a faint touch of indescribable domineering, "This is an opportunity for them to inspect us, and it is also an opportunity for us to inspect their strength, our company can't meet their requirements, of course they won't come, but if they can't meet our requirements." We won't hire them either. ”

In this era, the one who dares to speak so confidently to American designers and engineers is probably Lin Hongfei alone, the republic of this era. I don't know how many companies in Ludao, even if they can only hire a crappy second-rate assistant engineer in Europe and the United States, can desperately promote it as if they have put a huge satellite on their own.

Lin Hongfei said that he was even more arrogant, the two of them did not deliberately suppress their voices when they spoke, and all the people around them could hear it, but when they heard Lin Hongfei's confident words, they and Bob. Lutz and Lin Hongfei sat in the business class with several other Bobs. The core members of Lutz's team were not angry, but they were relieved, in their opinion, Lin Hongfei, who was a mess with his strength, should have this domineering.

Bob. The No. 3 person in Lutz's team, Tom Brown, a world-famous car designer who specializes in the shape design of American cars. Aike asked Lin Hongfei even more bluntly, "Mr. Lin, I want to know, if we come to your company, how are you going to arrange for us?" Will it break up our team? I've heard that you Chinese business leaders like to take some into their own hands. ”

"Of course not!" Lin Hongfei said without hesitation, "The leader of any enterprise wants to take everything into his own hands, and I will not be an exception, but what I ask to master is the general direction of enterprise development, personnel and finance, when it comes to specific product design, I will give you the requirements of the product that I understand about the performance of the market analysis department, maybe I will draw some simple diagrams, but the main work is done by you, overall, it should be similar to when you were in Chrysler." ”

"Your team has been running in for nearly 10 years, nearly 10 years of running-in, so that you have an unparalleled tacit understanding, a fool will disassemble you, you can exert the greatest energy together, I can't imagine what kind of design team will be after you are separated."

"Thank you, Mr. Lin, with your words, my friends and I are much more relieved." Tom. A happy smile appeared on Ike's face, "Is this a promise?" ”

"That's right, that's the promise!" Lin Hongfei nodded, giving them an accurate message, "But there is one thing I have to tell you now." ”

"What?" Tom. Echo asked, curious.

As soon as Lin Hongfei said this, not only Tom. Eco is curious, even Bob. Lutz and the entire core team members in the business class also pricked up their ears.

"Although I will not break you up, I will add some members to your team," Lin Hongfei said, "You American car designers and engineers are good at creating the thickness and chassis of the car, which is exactly what I need, but in terms of detail and durability, you are too far behind the Japanese car designers, I will add some engineers and designers who are good at detail design and quality control to your team, I hope you can understand." ”

Lin Hongfei said that he understood, but in fact, he was still asking Bob . The Lutz team sent a signal that if you were to join my company, this was the thing you had to do. Didn't wait for discussion.

As soon as Lin Hongfei's words came out, not only Bob. Lutz fell silent, and so did the entire team.

Lin Hongfei said this, of course, they know that American automotive engineers and designers are good at creating a sense of heaviness and majestic atmosphere for cars, such as the same 1.5-ton car, American cars give people the feeling that the chassis is solid, extraordinarily dignified, Japanese cars always give people light and fluttering, it seems that a crosswind can affect the safety of the car when running at high speed; As for the appearance, American car designers and engineers will always make people feel that there is a kind of atmosphere beyond this price point, and Japanese cars will always make people feel like a small family. Even the Lexus LS series, which is said to be selling crazy in the United States...... Japan's small size naturally limits their minds.

But compared to the designers of Japanese cars, the designers of American cars are not so perfect, and while they are good at tuning the chassis and creating momentum, they do not do enough in small details and humanization, such as cars for 40,000 or 50,000 dollars. The center console is still made of styrofoam, but Japanese cars dare to use soft styrofoam. And the outside is wrapped in leather to create a sense of luxury and delicacy that American cars cannot match; Another example is the engine and gearbox. U.S. cars take for granted oil leakage and even minor oil leaks in their engines: tools!

However, this is considered an absolute impermissible in Japanese cars...... In Lin Hongfei's opinion, it is absolutely not allowed...... In the eyes of American designers, the car is a tool, even if it is a luxury car, it is just a tool.

Although the designers of American cars are now aware of their own shortcomings. And it is already starting to improve, but this difference in personality, if you want to improve, you really can't improve it in a year or two.

"Yes." There was silence for a full two minutes, and Bob. "We do need designers like this in our team, but I have one condition: the ability and level of these people must be tested by us. ”

"Of course, after all, I'm working with you," Lin Hongfei nodded with a smile, but he was really relieved in his heart, he was really worried about Bob before. Lutz would disagree, "Also, I have to remind you that you are not the only design team in my company, there will be several teams competing with you at the same time, so you can be proud of your previous experience and your abilities, but not arrogant...... In my company, everything is based on ability and strength, everyone's work pressure may not be as big as in the United States, but I believe it will not be too small, as your chief technical officer and future boss, I will have higher requirements for you, our company is an ambitious company, my goal is to become one of the top ten car manufacturers in the world, to achieve this goal is very difficult, even an impossible task, but for me, this point must be done no matter what. ”

"For this, I hope you had better be mentally prepared now, if one of you thinks that you came to my company to come to that high-paying pension, then he is wrong, you will have a lot to do next, a lot."

He didn't dare to say that his target was actually the top three in the world's automobile manufacturing industry, for fear that this goal would be too big and scare them.

"Nope! Mr. Lin, you are wrong, this goal of yours is exactly what we want! ”

To Lin Hongfei's surprise, hearing Lin Hongfei's ambition and requirements for their future, Tom. Instead of being angry, Eco even smiled, "Although I'm not sure if you really intend to be one of the top 10 automakers in the world, we are willing to work towards this goal, we are not here to retire, we want to prove to Chrysler what a serious mistake they have made." ”

"So, we're on the same page?" Lin Hongfei was really happy in his heart, and he turned his head to look at Bob. Lutz, Dao.

"Let's just say that we're basically on agreement on this point," said Xiang Bob. Lutz shook his head slightly, "Ambition requires enough strength to support it, and we also need a salary worthy of our own efforts." ”

It's about asking yourself what kind of salary you can pay them...... Lin Hongfei smiled: Such a "euphemistic" way of speaking has probably reached the limit of what Americans can be "euphemistic", right?

"What about the hardware conditions of our company, it is useless for me to say now, you will see when you get to my company, in terms of strength, I only say one thing, a holding company that has been independent from my company is now the second group of our country's aviation industry, with total assets...... Well, more than 20 billion dollars, and I'm also the chairman of this company, what do you think of this strength? ”

"Oh God!"

Hearing Lin Hongfei say that the total assets of one of his holding companies exceeded 20 billion US dollars, and he himself was the chairman of this company, there was a burst of exclamations in the cabin, and they sounded Lin Hongfei's other identity: he is not just a car designer and the owner of a car company!

"As for the salary paid to you, I can only say that I may make you feel sorry, if you work in our country, for the sake of balancing the salary structure, I can't give you the salary when you work at Chrysler, but I can guarantee that the average purchasing power of the salary I give you will be slightly higher than the salary that Chrysler offers you, and I can also promise you one thing: if the model designed by your design team is approved and finally put on sale, The company will give you different incentives based on sales volume and profit margins, and as long as the car is still in production, you can get this reward every year, so gentlemen, you work hard, and if you can design a model that sells more than 1 million units worldwide on average per year, you're all well developed. The specific reward conditions are as follows......"

Next, Lin Hongfei focused on introducing them to the details of this award...... We can see that with the gradual deepening of Lin Hongfei's introduction, Bob. The eyes of the Lutz team members are also getting brighter and brighter: according to the reward rules announced by the boss, if the car designed by his team can really reach the scale of 1 million annual sales in the world, then ...... God, there is so much money?!

What a generous boss!

Not only unconsciously, they have already identified with Lin Hongfei's identity as his new boss. (To be continued......)
