Cao Yang did not explain to everyone how he planned to attack General Motors and Ford Motors.

This made the ministers very curious.

And on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, Jenny, the editor of Yahoo Auto, received a rather special email a few days ago.

Someone exposed that Toyota Motor and a designer in Huaxia were discussing the purchase of a pickup truck's exterior design drawings, and the contributor also attached the front shape of the car.

Although the Yahoo Auto Channel will receive some spy photos every once in a while, and the reading volume of this kind of news is relatively high, most of those spy photos are photos of various car companies in the trial and testing stages of new models.

And the shots are often not necessarily particularly clear.

It is relatively rare for the plan to be exposed in the early design and the drawings are also provided directly.

Under normal circumstances, Jenny will send an article out after a little editing based on this submission information.

But Jenny, who has been in the automotive industry for more than ten years, is keenly aware that the appearance of this pickup truck is very amazing.

The United States is the world's largest automotive market, and pickup trucks are the most popular among consumers here.

This is completely different from other markets.

In later generations, even if Huaxia's automobile market became the world's first, pickup trucks could not be put on the table.

But in the United States, in the top few best-selling lists, there must be pickups, or even more than one.

realized the amazing nature of this pickup, and what was exposed was the cooperation between Toyota Motor and Huaxia Designers, and even the contact information of Huaxia Designers.

Jenny immediately planned to write an article to cover it as a headline on the car channel.

After all, Toyota is now the biggest rival of American auto giants such as General Motors and Ford.

Jenny believes this article will be the most read presence on the car channel this month.

In this way, after two days of brewing and revision, Jenny's article appeared in the field of vision of netizens.

"Edward, why haven't you come to the company today?"

In a large villa in the suburbs of Detroit, a sleepy-eyed Edward had just pressed his Motorola A6188 when he heard a familiar voice urging him.

"Austen, I'm a designer, and every night I need to look for inspiration, wake up late, go to the company later, isn't it normal?"

In 2000, General Motors was still relatively prosperous.

Although many hidden dangers behind it can be seen, at least the company's profits are still steadily increasing.

Edward, the design director, naturally does not have so much work pressure.

"Sit! Sooner or later, you will die in a woman's belly, hurry up and turn on the computer and watch the news on Yahoo! ”

Austin knew Edward too well.

As the purchasing director of General Motors, there is a lot of work to communicate with the design director, and the two have a good personal relationship, so the two are good friends.

Apparently, Austin found something to do with Edward.

"What? It can't be Yahoo's stock falling, right? ”

"Edward, I don't have time to joke with you right now, if this matter is not handled well, it will be more troublesome than Yahoo stock falling."

Austin and Edward both bought Yahoo stock, and now hearing Austin say this, Edward finally got serious.

"Wait, I'll take a look right away."

Edward, who was lying lazily on the bed with one hand on the ball, immediately got up and quickly opened his computer.

In 1999, the penetration rate of computers in China was still relatively low.

But on the American side, it has already begun to enter thousands of households.

Soon, Edward entered Yahoo and saw the top news of the car channel.

"Damn! What do these Orientals want to do? They have already caused us so much trouble for low-fuel cars, do they still want to compete with us in pickup trucks? ”

It didn't take Austin to explain anything, Edward knew what was going on.

"Judging from the sketches exposed by Yahoo at present, the exterior design of this pickup truck is very amazing, and with Toyota's low fuel consumption, low cost and good quality, we will be in big trouble at that time."

Austen's words made Edward think so.

Since the 80s, Dongying's cars have conquered the United States and seized a lot of markets.

Toyota's Corolla and Camry, Honda's Accord and Civic are all leaders in their respective market segments, and GM and Ford are defeated.

If it weren't for the fact that the American people have a soft spot for large-displacement cars, it is estimated that the crisis of General Motors would have erupted now, and the time for the financial crisis would not have been.

"Austin, is there any way you can get in touch with Yahoo Motors? I felt the need to meet with each other and see how we could snatch this cooperation from Toyota. ”

As a designer, Edward felt the amazement of the sketches that were currently on display.

He is sure that if the design of other parts is as stunning as the one exposed, then this pickup will become a generation classic.

Today, Toyota's pickup trucks in the United States are still not comparable to Ford, GM and other old giants, if the other party has such a pickup, then things will be really big.

At that time, the pressure on Edward, the design director, will definitely be huge.

"Our sales have partnered with Yahoo Auto and we're sure to be able to find the editor for this article, but I think you need to move a little faster."

"After all, you can think of robbing Toyota of this cooperation project, but Ford, Chrysler and Dodge can't think of it?"

"Besides, will Toyota wait there after reading this article?"

When Austin said this, Edward immediately became nervous.

He knew that time was running out for himself.

At the same time, Mays, Ford's design director, was already reporting his proposal to CEO Nasser.

At this time, Ford still had a capital to be proud of.

In 1999, Ford had $22 billion in cash.

In 1997~2000, Ford's profit reached a staggering $39 billion.

Volvo, Land Rover, Aston Martin and Jaguar are now all owned by Ford.

Because of this, Ford wants to take a step further and pull General Motors down the horse and become the first brother in the global automotive industry.

"Mace, you really didn't draw this sketch?"

Nasser was able to become the CEO of Ford Motor, and now he has a very good vision.

He could see at a glance that the model in front of him was very promising.

But what Mace reported to him made him a little confused.

"Nasser, I wish this was my achievement, but the truth is regrettable." Metz spread his hands and continued: "Now we should focus on how to get the full exterior picture of the model, and how to make this car a new car for Ford. ”
