Can you be called a rich man if you don’t indulge yourself?

Chapter 154 The Rich Classroom Begins
A-class auto show is a large international auto show
Although it is not as good as the Geneva Motor Show, it also brings together major global car brands.
This auto show is divided into five exhibition halls.
There are new car launches from ordinary brands, as well as new products from high-end brands.
Hall 5 is the most eye-catching exhibition hall at this Beijing International Auto Show.
The exhibition hall brings together super car dealers from all over the world.

Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Bentley, Aston Martin, Koenigsegg, and many other luxury cars are all available here.
As the general agent of Koenigsegg in China and a top boss in the domestic automobile industry, Fu Songyang is now acting as Koenigsegg's temporary product spokesperson. Facing the cameras of media reporters, he introduced Koenigsegg's first supercar to be launched in China in 2024, the Koenigsegg Gemera.

"This supercar is called Gemera. The name of this car comes from two Swedish words, which were also given by the mother of the founder of the Koenigsegg brand.

Considering the power, configuration and space of this car, its name can be extended to mean: I can give you whatever you want. Our agency translated this car as Koenigsegg Ruyuan. "

As soon as the words came out, both the onlookers, reporters and exhibitors applauded in support.

As for Gu Heng?
It is standing in the crowd without doing anything.
Gu Heng was not interested in the name of the supercar. Since it was not the only supercar, the name had no meaning.

Looking at the supercar in front of him that was similar in color to the first Bentley Flying Spur he bought, Gu Heng was already jealous.
Almost every supercar manufacturer has a very strong recognition of its supercars.
Even without the logo, anyone who knows a little about supercars can tell the difference between Ferrari, Lamborghini and Koenigsegg at a glance.
The applause stopped, and Fu Songyang continued, "I believe many people have already known the parameters of this Koenigsegg Gemera in advance, so I will focus on its controversial points.

In Europe, many media outlets have given this supercar a very derogatory label.

Three-cylinder supercar. "

Although Gu Heng likes supercars, his love for them has always been vulgar.
What he likes is the cool appearance of supercars, while performance and speed are secondary to him.
Therefore, people generally don’t know much about the configuration of supercars.

Fu Songyang was looking at Gu Heng while he was talking, as if this introduction was for Gu Heng alone.
"Let's compare the parameters first. The well-known Porsche 918 has a V12 engine, a displacement of 4.6L, ​​and a maximum engine power of 447km. The Koenigsegg Gemera in front of you has an L3 engine, a displacement of 2.0L, but the maximum engine power can reach 450km.

I believe everyone has already made a comparative judgment in their hearts.

Compared with the three legendary cars, the three cylinders of Gemera have no dignity at all, but its advantage is high power per liter. A 1L displacement can produce 225kW of power, which directly breaks through the sky. It uses three cylinders to do the work of 12 cylinders.

The reason is that Gemera is the first to use Koenigsegg's proud Freevalve technology, which uses a complex electromagnetic + pneumatic structure to freely control the opening and closing of the engine valves. It does not require a camshaft at all. The valves can be opened and closed whenever they want, and are 100% controllable, further tapping the potential of the internal combustion engine. "

Fu Songyang was getting more and more excited as he spoke.
Gu Heng was confused as he listened from below.
When it was time for reporters to ask questions, someone finally asked, "Can Fu Song tell us the price of this Koenigsegg Gemera in China?"

“Since its official announcement at the Geneva Motor Show in 2023, Koenigsegg Gemera has received orders from more than 150 top wealthy people around the world, but it should be mentioned that this is a limited edition supercar.

Limited to 300 units worldwide.

So far, about 200 units have been sold.

As for the price, let me put it this way, in the secondary market in Europe, the price of Koenigsegg Gemera has reached nearly 400 million US dollars, but Koenigsegg is not a used car dealer, we will only sell it according to the suggested price.

The price of this car is 1980 million yuan in China."

After Fu Songyang finished talking about the price, he turned his inquiring gaze towards Gu Heng.
The meaning is also very simple.
I introduced the car to you and told you the price.
It’s up to you whether to buy it now or not.

Gu Heng understood what he meant instantly, and took a few steps forward under the gaze of the reporters, and asked directly: "Is the exhibition car for sale?"

Fu Songyang laughed when he heard this.

Regarding Gu Heng's plan to buy a display car, he had already discussed it with Koenigsegg before, and Koenigsegg was willing to give him, the general agent, a face and agreed directly.
Thinking of this, Fu Songyang directly signaled the staff next to him, and placed a sold sign on the roof of the Gerema, smiling and saying, "Of course it's for sale. Congratulations to Mr. Gu Heng for becoming the first owner of a Koenigsegg Gemera in China."

reporter:"???"

Onlookers: "???"

What's happening here?
The auto show has just begun, and a supercar worth 2000 million has been sold?
Suddenly, the reporters, who were worried about having no topics to talk about, began to take pictures of Gu Heng crazily.
I have already thought of the headline for the news I will publish later.
《Sold out in seconds! Mysterious young Chinese tycoon spends 1980 million to become the first owner of a Koenigsegg Gemera in China!》

At this time, Koenigsegg's product manager came to Gu Heng after a brief conversation with Fu Songyang, stretched out his right hand, and spoke in a bird language that Gu Heng could not understand at all.
Just as Gu Heng frowned, the translator beside him quickly said, "Hello, Mr. Gu Heng. I am Smith, the product manager of Koenigsegg at this China International Auto Show. Thank you for your trust in Koenigsegg."

Upon hearing this, Gu Heng also shook hands with him.

The translator's voice continued: "Although this car already belongs to you, Mr. Gu Heng, please forgive our rudeness, because we only brought one exhibition car this time, so this car needs to stay in the exhibition hall for 72 hours. We can only deliver it after 72 hours. I hope you can understand.

However, as a model that has already been sold, we will strictly monitor it 24 hours a day and will not allow anyone to test drive it."

Fu Songyang had already told Gu Heng about this situation before, and he was mentally prepared.

Then he nodded calmly to indicate that it didn't matter.

Just three days
Compared to ordering from major supercar manufacturers and then waiting for two or three years, three days is really too fast.
Jiang Wen, who had been standing next to Gu Heng, watched this scene and couldn't help but feel a little sour.
Although he is a second-generation rich man, his family assets are already tens of billions.
But the wealth at his disposal is nothing compared to Gu Heng.
Strictly speaking, Gu Heng is a few years younger than him.

but?
They have already thrown 10 billion into the company.
There is no need to think twice about buying a supercar worth tens of millions. Just buy it.
And what about yourself?

Let alone 10 billion, just to buy a car, you have to apply to your family and then go through many twists and turns before you can get the money.
Karma is a good cycle.
In the past, only others envied me.
Now it's finally my turn to be jealous of others.
"Gu Heng, after you've enjoyed buying this car, how about you lend it to me for a few days? I have quite a few cars in my garage, so you can drive whichever one you want, how about that?"

As a supercar fan like Gu Heng, Jiang Wen also wanted to experience the difference between a 3-cylinder supercar and a 12-cylinder one. Upon hearing this, Gu Heng put his arm around his shoulder and said, "Okay, I'll come to pick up the car in three days, and you'll drive this Gerema back for me then."

"Justice! Justice!"

Hearing Gu Heng's words, Jiang Wen couldn't help but punched Gu Heng's chest.
But the next second, he immediately understood what Gu Heng meant, and couldn't help but ask, "Let me drive this one? You don't want to buy more, do you?"

Gu Heng shrugged: "Since we're already at the auto show, of course we have to look around. If we come across a car we like, wouldn't it be a pity if we don't buy it?"

As he said that, he turned to Fu Songyang and Lin Zhiying who were still standing aside and said, "Brother Yang, Brother Zhiying, you guys go ahead and have fun. Jiang Wen and I will go to the exhibition areas of other brands first. Let the Koenigsegg brand prepare the contract first, and I will come back to sign it later."

Fu Songyang probably guessed that one car would not satisfy Gu Heng, so he made an OK gesture to him.

Gu Heng, on the other hand, pulled Jiang Wen directly towards the Lamborghini showroom next door.

The reporters nearby quickly gathered around.

"Mr. Gu, can you accept an interview?"

"I'm a reporter from Sohu. Can I take two minutes of Mr. Gu's time to ask a few questions?"

"."

In addition to the long guns and short guns aimed at Gu Heng, the reporters also stuffed the microphone into Gu Heng's mouth frantically.
As online journalists, they know exactly what domestic netizens like to watch.
No one cares about national affairs, but gossip about rich people and celebrities can be trending on the Internet every day.
A young rich man who suddenly came into everyone's sight spent 1980 million in a few minutes to buy a top supercar. Although it is not a big hot topic, it will definitely attract a lot of attention if it is posted online.
No reporter wanted to miss this opportunity.
Fortunately, the bodyguards tried their best to stop these reporters from getting close to Gu Heng.
But looking at the blocked road, Gu Heng couldn't help but frown.

I'm here to visit the auto show and buy a car. If there's such a traffic jam, what's the point of visiting the auto show?
Thinking of this, Gu Heng said directly: "I am planning to visit the auto show now, so I don't have time to accept your interview. I won't stop you if you want to take pictures or do something else, but please don't block my way, okay?

Can you interview me after I finish visiting the auto show?"

What Gu Heng said was quite polite, but the reporters were all weaklings. Who would pay attention to what Gu Heng said?

Everyone was still scrambling to get past the human wall formed by the bodyguards.
Seeing this scene, Gu Heng was a little bit confused.
He turned to Jiang Wen and said, "How about contacting the staff at the auto show?"

Jiang Wen shrugged: "With seven or eight bodyguards here, why do we need to contact the auto show staff? Do you think these staff can do anything to these idiots?"

Gu Heng: “.”

Gu Heng was speechless
I can now somewhat understand how those stars feel when they get mad at the reporters.
Just as he was about to accept the interview and let the reporters get what they wanted before continuing to visit the auto show, Jiang Wen seemed to have guessed Gu Heng's thoughts, and then sneered nonchalantly: "You just take these people too seriously.

We are not public figures, and we don’t need to establish a persona. We are serious taxpayers. Why do you care about these reporters? "

Gu Heng: "What do you mean?"

Jiang Wen shrugged and said, "These reporters are just spoiled by those celebrities and internet celebrities. The more polite you are to them, the more they will push you around.

I will teach you a lesson today, so that you know how to deal with these reporters. Learn from me, I will only cover it up once."

"???"

Looking at Jiang Wen's expression, Gu Heng was filled with questions.
Just waiting for Jiang Wen to deal with this group of reporters.
The next second, Jiang Wen's voice came out directly.
"Are they all fucking dead? How long do you want them to surround us? If anyone dares to squeeze in, just smash the microphone and camera for me, and I'll pay you whatever you want!"

As soon as the words fell.
All the reporters who were trying to get in were stunned.
The bodyguards were all professionally trained.
Previously, we could only form a human wall to block the way because of the employer's consideration.
Everyone knows that a journalist's pen is a knife that kills without bloodshed.
Who would dare to touch these reporters without the employer's order?
But now even though Jiang Wen had spoken, the bodyguards only moved a little more vigorously.
No one really dared to smash other people's microphones and cameras.
Except for a few timid reporters who retreated after Jiang Wen finished speaking, most reporters were still pushing their way in.
For them, first-hand interviews are achievements.
Performance means money.
The money is right in front of me, how can I be scared by a few words?
Seeing that the situation had not improved, Jiang Wen walked up without saying anything, snatched a microphone from a reporter, and smashed it hard on the ground.
There was a loud "bang".
The valuable microphone was instantly broken into pieces
The reporter whose microphone was smashed was stunned.
But Jiang Wen ignored him and said to the bodyguards, "Did you see that? If anyone else tries to squeeze in, just smash them. Don't hit them, just smash the machines. Don't think about saving money for me."

After that, he glanced at the reporter in front of him and said, "How much is the microphone? Come to me for reimbursement after the auto show. If you want to call the police or do something else, it's up to you."

Jiang Wen did not introduce himself.

As a famous second-generation Beijinger, there must be someone among these reporters who knows him, so there is no need to introduce himself.
Sure enough, after being thrown down by Jiang Wen, all the reporters became quiet.
It dispersed all of a sudden.
It's just an interview, and I won't lose anything if I can't get the interview.
But if the guy who was eating got hit, he wouldn't know where to cry.
Jiang Wen returned to Gu Heng's side and restrained his rebellious look. He smiled and said, "How is it, have you learned it? You have to be tougher with these shameless people."

Gu Heng shook his head helplessly.
I get along well with Jiang Wen because we have the same interests and hobbies.
Plus, Gu Heng also did a deal worth more than 5000 million with him.
The two are friends who interact with each other on an equal footing.
But Gu Heng overlooked that, in essence, Jiang Wen was still a rich second generation.
As the second generation of rich people who have been spoiled since childhood, except for a few with good personalities, most of them are actually very proud.
It is not an exaggeration to say that the sky is the first and the earth is the second.
Thinking of this, Gu Heng couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you afraid that these reporters will fabricate a lot of black history about you?"

"Fear of a hammer
Didn’t I just tell you that we are serious major taxpayers, not public figures who eat at other people’s expense?

What can reporters do to us?
Principal Wang must know about this, right? Have those reporters ever said anything good about him? Did it prevent him from being an internet celebrity every day? Did it prevent his father Wang Jianlin from returning to the top ten of China's richest list?
Things like media and journalists, except for being a little lethal to celebrities, are nothing to us. There's no need to think too much about them.

Let’s go to the auto show.”

Gu Heng nodded slightly
The words are rough but the truth is not rough.
I really need to learn to use my status to my advantage.
Jiang Wen said he was teaching himself a lesson, and he really did teach himself a lesson.
