Chapter 545: Detonating the Market
The past year is a sad year for the textile industry, and a heart-pounding and surprising year for the toy industry.
Although SAL's rescue plan has no economic benefits, SAL's socially responsible rescue has won SAL a lot of applause, which has greatly alleviated the criticism of some people in China who caused the trade dispute.
Although these criticisms have nothing to do with SAL's industrial layout, it is also a great comfort for Cai Siqiang to be able to establish a good social image for SAL.
However, it is not only this that can cause Cai Siqiang's good mood.
"How about it, Mr. Cai, this car can still enter your eyes, right?" Li Hao, who looked proud, pointed to a European and American flagship car that had just rolled off the assembly line and said to Cai Siqiang.
Looking at the calm and slightly European aristocratic car in front of him, the black body paint is translucent and colorful, and the appearance is wide and magnificent, just from the appearance, it is not inferior to Cai Siqiang's usual Mercedes-Benz top S series.
"It looks very atmospheric and very pie, our Oumeijia flagship is 25 cm longer than the original, the car is 5150mm long, nearly 85mm longer than Audi A6L, close to Mercedes-Benz S-class, and the wheelbase is more than 3100mm, it can be said that it is stronger than Audi A6L in space, and it is basically the same as Mercedes-Benz S-class." Li Hao went on to introduce that as a CEO, he cherishes these parameters, and he really does a line of love, and Cai Siqiang is worse than Li Hao in this regard, because the parameters of most of SAL's products are not clear to Cai Siqiang now.
"It's good on the outside, but what's the inside like?" Cai Siqiang nodded and asked rhetorically.
Li Hao didn't answer immediately, but said to the secretary next to him: "Xiao Zhao, tell someone to quickly refuel the car." ”
"After refueling, let's try the car and take a slow look together." Li Hao said with a smile, "To be honest, I can't wait." No one has ever driven this car off the assembly line, and it is really a 0-kilometer virgin driver, Mr. Cai may not have driven such a car, right? ”
Li Hao said that Cai Siqiang was a little eager to try, he really didn't have this kind of opportunity, today is really rare.
"Mr. Cai, Mr. Li, the oil is good, now please let the two CEOs tell you a few words, this is a major event in Dongfang Qiyang, everyone hopes that the two CEOs can give you a few words of encouragement and encouragement." On the side, Li Hao's secretary Xiao Zhao quickly refueled the car and asked for instructions.
"Mr. Cai, you can say a few words first to cheer up the brothers." Li Hao said with a smile.
"Mr. Li, it's better for you to talk about it. Today I'm here to be a guinea pig and make a special trip to see our new flagship car. Cai Siqiang excused himself, although this company said that SAL should also occupy 30% of the shares, and it is understandable for Cai Siqiang, the head of SAL, to come out and say a few words, but these things are the achievements of Li Hao and their work day and night, so there is no need for Cai Siqiang to steal the limelight from Li Hao at this time.
"Mr. Cai, you are so polite, they are all a family, what do you share with each other?" Li Hao said with a smile. "Then I won't grind."
After speaking, Li Hao cleared his throat, took the microphone in Xiao Zhao's hand, turned it on, and said loudly: "Today is a major event since the establishment of our Oriental Qiyang, because from today onwards, we Oriental Qiyang finally have luxury cars leaving the factory!" ”
"The new brothers may not know the meaning of this, but the old brothers from Qiyang Automobile, this is a piece of our heart, before this, built a car for decades, we can't build a car that can be sold for 300,000 yuan, it's a shame to say, although now our European and American flagship is still a foreign product, but we are different from several other joint ventures in China, we are completely self-controlled enterprises, and the core part of the car is loaded with our independent research and development of the software system, Now all the parts are produced in China, so we should be very proud to be able to build such a good car. Saying this, the engineers on the scene began to applaud enthusiastically.
"Thank you brothers for working day and night these days, half a year ago I went to an industry conference, proposed that we want to build luxury cars, some of the bosses at the meeting quipped, Xiao Li, your hobby is really unique enough, but hand-built cars are really not popular now. They were laughing at us for not being able to achieve mass production of luxury cars, and I was very sad to hear it at the time, but I didn't say anything, because we didn't do it, and what we said was in vain. ”
"Thanks to the hard work of our brothers, today we can proudly announce that the mass production of Qiyang Automobile's luxury cars has been successful!" Li Hao's resounding words ushered in a round of warm applause.
"Finally, in order to thank the brothers for their efforts, today I announce that everyone will receive double wages this month!" The last sentence was real, so there was no suspense that it caused extremely enthusiastic cheers at the scene.
Seeing that the atmosphere was very warm, Li Hao handed over the microphone, "Mr. Cai, you still have to say a few words." ”
Cai Siqiang took the microphone, "Congratulations to the European and American flagship car off the assembly line, although I have not yet test-driven, but I think the European and American flagship is the best car made in China so far, so we will leave a strong page in the history of China's automobile industry."
Thanks to everyone's efforts, created a new history, SAL company can participate in this great historical process, I am deeply honored, such a good car, I am from the bottom of my heart to support, I announce that in the future, SAL's official cars will all purchase our own cars produced by Qiyang Automobile, today's European and American flagship, SAL company will purchase the first batch of 88 as a car for receiving VIPs! ”
Although Cai Siqiang didn't say much, it still caused another round of enthusiastic cheers from the field engineers.
In a sea of joy at the scene, Li Hao and Cai Siqiang sat in this Oumeijia flagship car, and Cai Siqiang was pushed into the driver's seat by Li Haoqiang, allowing Cai Siqiang to enjoy a real zero-kilometer maiden drive. As soon as he sat in the car, Cai Siqiang felt a completely different feeling, because he found that in front of the steering wheel of the car, except for a huge 10-inch magic mirror display, Cai Siqiang could not find a button!
"How's that, doesn't it feel like you're used to it?" Li Hao, who had driven a prototype, saw that Cai Siqiang didn't know how to start, so he pointed, "With this red tap on the steering wheel, the car can be ignited." ”
"But what about shifting gears? There should also be a shift thing in the automatic transmission" Cai Siqiang drove a Mercedes-Benz S-class sedan, and it was not surprising that there was no independent shift knob, and it placed the shift knob behind the steering wheel, but Cai Siqiang did not find it on the steering wheel of this Oumeijia flagship.
"There is no need to change gears at all, now it is fully automated, after ignition, you step on the accelerator and go, and then step on the brakes to stop, and the car will automatically enter the parking state after stepping on the brakes for a long time, so you don't have to be so troublesome at all." Li Hao pointed with a smile.
After Li Hao's simple guidance, Cai Siqiang quickly mastered the driving skills of this high-tech car and drove into the test field.
Looking at the straight lane in front of him, Cai Siqiang stepped on the accelerator to the end, and the 4.2L V8 engine instantly burst out with huge power, making Cai Siqiang feel a strong feeling of pushing back, "The feeling of pushing back is good, this flagship version is full of power, and the acceleration time of 100 kilometers will not exceed 5 seconds 5!" Li Hao explained in a timely manner.
Cai Siqiang couldn't help but be moved, you must know that this is a C-class car weighing nearly 2 tons, not a sports car.
But these things are easy to understand, and then Cai Siqiang tested the two core functions of intelligent assisted driving function and active safety function, and was completely conquered by the Oumeijia flagship.
The intelligent driving assistance system can completely replace human driving under normal driving conditions, automatically select the path and adjust the driving speed according to the road conditions and navigation, avoid obstacles, and greatly reduce the fatigue of driving for people who need to drive on the highway for a long time.
The active safety system can automatically determine whether a safe distance is maintained between the vehicle in front of it, and if it is too close, it will automatically reduce the speed, for high-speed driving, this system can completely avoid the rear-end collision accident of the vehicle in front.
After a few laps of driving in the test field, Cai Siqiang directly pointed to this Oumeijia flagship and said: "Mr. Li, I want this car, after driving this car, I will drive another car, I am really not used to it." ”
For the current automotive industry, the driver's seat of the Oumeijia flagship is a car full of science fiction. It not only impressed Cai Siqiang for the first time, but also moved countless high-end consumers after its release, for those rich people whose money is not a problem at all, after restricting the import of luxury cars from Europe and the United States in China, the appearance of the Oumeijia flagship just hit their hearts.
Both the appearance and the interior, this impeccable luxury car is eye-catching, the price of up to 880,000 yuan Oumeijia flagship as soon as it came out in short supply, in just one month the number of orders exceeded the 10,000 mark! Although there are factors of the first early adopters, such a strong performance still shocked the domestic automotive industry. You must know that this is a luxury car of 880,000 yuan, not a family sedan chair of 100,000 or 200,000 yuan!
What shocked the industry even more is that among these high-end consumers, a large part of them, like Cai Siqiang, bought to replace the Mercedes-Benz BMW high-end car they originally drove!
In the luxury car series launched by Opel China, it is surprisingly the most high-end flagship that detonates the market!
