Chapter 789 SAIC: This is also our chance
Ok?
No one thought about this problem before, but now after hearing what Designer C said, everyone immediately realized: Yes, it makes sense!

Such a powerful design can only be produced by an excellent designer who has more than 20 years of experience and has been working in top foreign car design companies such as Pininfarina or the design departments of those car giants. , Zhang Qihang is a boy who has just graduated five years ago, why?
Immediately, someone at the side had a big brain hole, and excitedly said: "You mean, Zhang Qihang is impersonating, we can expose this matter and ruin Zhang Qihang's reputation?"

As soon as these words came out, several people at the scene covered their foreheads together: Where did such a fool come from?
Designer C actually wanted to slap his head, but since he brought up this topic, he naturally had to solve it by himself. He said helplessly: "No, no, this is not the point. If Huateng Industrial Group insists on It is said that this design belongs to Mr. Zhang Qihang and Mr. Zhang, what can you do?"

Before the buddy could react, he said stupidly: "Didn't you just say that this is impossible?"

Designer C sighed after hearing the words: "Then let me ask you again, do you think Huateng Industrial Group has grown to today's scale in only 5 years, is it feasible from a normal logic point of view?"

"..."

This buddy was stunned for a moment, and finally realized the meaning of other comrades, and stopped talking: Yes, from a normal logic, in five years, a family with only a dozen or so employees with missing arms and legs, production Is it possible that a company whose activities have been suspended for more than half a year and whose wages have not been fully paid has rapidly grown into a large enterprise group with an annual output value of tens of billions?

Of course not!
But this kind of thing happened under the leadership of Zhang Qihang.

So here comes the question: Since Zhang Qihang has created such a miracle, why do you say that Zhang Qihang cannot design such a highly mature product without any evidence and pure guesswork?
After all, they have created a miracle before.

Since they were able to create the first miracle, why do you say they cannot create the second miracle?

Because of the previous examples of miracles, unless you have super strong evidence, when you say that Zhang Qihang can’t design such an excellent product, you can only be slapped in the face—you said it’s impossible ?But Mr. Zhang has already achieved what you call "impossible", so why can't Mr. Zhang achieve the second "impossible"?
Fortunately, this buddy is not stupid after all. After realizing that his idea was wrong, he smiled awkwardly, and then carefully asked Designer B: "Then... What do you mean, Designer Gu?"

"My idea is very simple," Designer C... Designer Gu said, "I don't think our country has such a powerful car designer. Huateng Industrial Group must have paid a high price to ask a top foreign car design company to help. They made this design, but these are not the key points. The key point is that the appearance of the Sylphy sedan reminded us that the situation has changed. The current situation is completely different from a few years ago. Our competitors have Appeared, it is impossible to imagine lying down and earning money like before..."

"Designer Gu, are you exaggerating?" Someone dismissed Designer Gu's words as a bit exaggerated: "This is the first month that the Sylphy sedan has been on the market. Who knows how they will develop in the future?" What will happen? Maybe it’s possible to drive high and go low.”

"Yes, yes, besides, we people are not so easy to bully, dare to come to our job to grab food? It's against him! We can't kill him..."

"Clean up people? Hehe..." Hearing this, someone on the side laughed: "Clean up as you say? Do you really think that Huateng Industrial Group has no backer?"

"That's right," the people next to him immediately echoed: "Huateng Industrial Group competes for tens of billions of dollars a year. The city belongs to the province, do you want to deal with him? I am a little curious, how do you plan to deal with him? Believe it or not, if it is a fair competition, it will be fine. If you dare to do something in private, Lu Province Can go crazy?"

These are all clear-headed, and it is clear that everyone can compete fairly, but if they want to engage in some conspiracy in private... Hehe, I didn't see what Lu Province made Huateng Industrial Group's baby look like?You forget to poke someone's heart, do you think they can still be polite to you?It really made people anxious. When the time comes, they will secretly tell all the car dealers in Lu Province not to sell Santana and Santana 2000. Who will lose the most when they see it.

After being scolded by someone pulling their ears, those hot-blooded fellows finally calmed down just now, and they finally understood that things were not as simple as they thought. In the end, everyone's eyes suddenly fell on Designer C: You provoked the quarrel just now, shouldn’t you finish what you just said?
Designer C nodded and said: "What I meant just now is that the appearance of Sylphy gave us a sense of crisis, but it is actually a good thing for us, and it will force us to launch products that better meet market demand, such as just now I took a closer look and found that many designs on this Sylphy sedan are actually worth learning from:

For example, the storage space under the door panel is expanded, not only newspapers and magazines can be placed, but also water glasses and water bottles can be placed;
For example, the lift switch of the electric door and window is indeed more convenient to operate than placing it in front of the gear handle on the door armrest on the driver's side;

Another example is the rear air-conditioning outlets. It doesn’t matter if they were not used before. After all, our positioning is a B-class car. Now the B-class cars sold in the domestic market do not have rear air-conditioning outlets. We don’t have any, and no one can say anything, but since Sylphy has it, shall we add it?
and also……"

After Lin Linzong talked about more than ten improvement ideas and projects learned from Sylphy sedan, designer C said: "If you improve all of these, then launch an improved version of Santana 2000, and then propose something such as 'increased volume without "Price increase" and "The new generation of Santana 2000" and other promotional slogans, everyone said, can we further increase the sales of our Santana 2000?"

Hearing what Designer C said, everyone's thinking was opened at once...

"That's right, since Huateng Group can regard us as competitors, then we can also learn from our competitors' strengths."

"That's right, and these improvements can not only be used on the Santana 2000, but even the old Poussin can be adjusted."

"That's right, that's right. On the other hand, it's time for Poussin to upgrade and improve his configuration..."

………………

Everyone talked and talked for a while, and finally reached a similar conclusion: the appearance of the Sylphy sedan did cause some troubles to our Santana 2000, but it was only a little bit of trouble. After all, our Santana 2000’s mechanical The quality and popularity are here. As long as the configuration level is slightly improved, with the support of the "VW" car logo and Volkswagen, the position of our Santana 2000 is still stable in the mid-level official and business car market, and it is well-deserved. boss.

"Also, I don't know if everyone has discovered it," Designer C said with a chuckle, "This matter is also the biggest benefit for us."

And the biggest benefit?

Could it be that these were not enough?
Everyone was immediately excited, and quickly asked: "Designer Gu, what are the benefits besides these?"

"It's very simple." Designer Gu said with a smile: "Although the Santana 2000 sold well and was very recognized by the market, it is still a product of Volkswagen's technical level in the 80s, and it has fallen behind. The Chinese leadership of our group actually We have already realized this, so since Volkswagen’s new mid-size car passat B5 was launched in Europe last year, the leaders have been wanting to introduce this car, but the Germans have always felt that it is enough to give us some backward technology, I have been refusing to let go, but if the Germans find that the Santana 2000 has fallen behind in our Chinese auto consumer market and cannot compete, do you think the Germans will let go of the introduction of the Passat B5?"

Uh-huh? !
Everyone froze for a moment, and then their eyes lit up!

Last year, Volkswagen launched a new generation of mid-size cars in Europe: passat B5, the fifth-generation Passat. With its smooth and amazing design, the fifth-generation Passat won many world-class cars as soon as it came out. The Design Award of [-] was the best in Europe for a while, and became the mid-level sedan with the highest topic and exposure in Europe.

The leadership team of SAIC Volkswagen Huaxia is not stupid. After seeing the fifth-generation Passat, they have been thinking about introducing this car to China. It’s just that, as the designer Gu said, the Germans have drifted away in the past two years. No, I am not as humble as when I was trying my best to squeeze into the Chinese market. I feel that in the situation of the Chinese auto consumer market, using some outdated technology is enough to pass and satisfy, and I refuse to introduce the fifth-generation Passat to China.

Facing the tough German guy, the Chinese side has no good solution for a while. Who made the Santana 2000 sell so well in China now? A product appeared that seemed to threaten Santana 2000's "status" and sales...

If the management of the Chinese side can make good use of this opportunity, maybe they can really force the Germans to introduce the fifth-generation Passat into the country-you are not willing to introduce the fifth-generation Passat?That's good, when you see the sales of Santana 2000 continue to decline and the dividends are greatly reduced, don't worry about getting angry.
