Chapter 222： Frankfurt Motor Show II

September 17, 1979, 9:00 am, Frankfurt, West Germany. As the world's largest auto show, the attractiveness of the Frankfurt Auto Show can be said that no auto company can refuse.

Most of the world's outstanding brands and manufacturers came to participate in this auto show. Among them, the German local companies Volkswagen, BMW, and Mercedes-Benz troikas have all released new models. Heiyun Automobile is currently only a small manufacturer, and everyone does not pay much attention to him.

Many companies believe that perhaps Bao Zixuan has unique insights into electronic technology products. However, what the auto industry is more testing is the overall industrial level of a country. No one thinks that Black Cloud can produce high-quality cars just by relying on one company.

At present, more than 50% of Heiyun auto parts are purchased products, if it threatens the interests of other auto giants. Bao Zixuan was worried that someone would choke his neck on the parts, which is why Huaxia enterprises should be large and comprehensive in future generations. If you don’t have production yourself, you may not be able to get spare parts supply at the critical moment. The better the business, the faster it will die.

At the beginning of the exhibition, there were not many customers in the exhibition hall of Black Cloud Auto. It has a lot to do with fame, their brand awareness is still very low right now. In the automotive industry, everyone recognizes the brand very much, but it is not very recognized for corporate customers like Heiyun who have just entered the market.

Bao Zixuan and John Chambers were chatting in the exhibition hall, Bao Zixuan said with a smile, "John, it seems that the location of the exhibition hall is still very important. Even if we spend a lot of money next year, we must get a good position."

John Chambers: "Boss, I've actually thought about this too. But I guess it's difficult. The Frankfurt Auto Show tends to favor local German companies, and even GM and Ford in the United States are not in a good position."

In fact, Bao Zixuan also knew about this problem, but he still wanted to fight for it. Otherwise, the employees have no motivation at all, at least more people can come in from the front positions.

As the two of them were talking, they saw buyers coming to the Heiyun showroom one after another. Although the area of ​​the Heiyun showroom is not very large this time, there is also a gimmick, that is, the most expensive car in this auto show is here. The advertisement has already been released, and many people have come here because of it.

When they saw the XV Knight of the Black Cloud, many people were shocked by the appearance of the car. It turns out that Heiyun can create such a domineering car, and has a preliminary approval for the ability of Heiyun's car. Especially European customers, they have high requirements for car safety performance. When I saw the bulletproof car of Black Cloud, I wanted to know more about it.

This time, Heiyun Motors shipped 2 sets of each exhibitor model, and the side of Knight XV was quickly surrounded. Most of the employees of Xiangjiang Heiyun Automobile Company are Germans. They have natural advantages in Germany, and there is no problem in communication.

Many Germans feel incredible when they see the Knight XV. This car combines the lines of American cars, the interior and power of German cars, and the most important thing is that the main raw materials are all from the Soviet Union.

This car, Heiyun Automobile Company only played the role of an assembly platform, but under the training of German engineers, there was no sense of disobedience. It makes the vehicle line, power system, and safety all meet the German requirements for bulletproof vehicles.

They also want to produce such a car, but they can't get titanium alloy. In addition to aircraft manufacturing and military production, the main titanium alloys on the market are the most used by the Black Cloud Group. Only the Heiyun Group in the world can use titanium alloys to manufacture cars on a large scale, which is equivalent to a unique business. Soon, customers placed orders for the Knight XV at the exhibition, especially those nobles who like cars. This is a car that can save lives at critical moments.

When many people came to see Knight XV, they saw that the other three models of Heiyun were very beautiful and advanced. At least the appearance has been able to attract customers, many buyers began to contact the staff to introduce them to the black cloud car.

When they heard that the Heiyun 1 series car only needs 4 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers, everyone looked suspiciously. After all, the most fuel-efficient RB car now consumes about 7 liters per 100 kilometers, and American cars generally consume more than 10 liters.

This is the time of the oil crisis, and all countries have a deep preference for cars with low fuel consumption. See the Black Cloud 1 Series car in action in the video, and after learning how the engine works. Everyone is an old man who has been in the automotive industry for many years and is very familiar with the structure of the car. ,

Everyone understands the black cloud hybrid engine technology. The automotive industry has ushered in a new technology revolution, which is a technology that has a major impetus to the automotive industry.

Now in the hands of Heiyun Group, it is combining hybrid technology with Bao Zixuan's strength. Then the black cloud in the automotive industry is definitely a force that cannot be ignored, and it can even change the existing pattern of the automotive industry.

Knowing that Heiyun mastered the hybrid technology, it spread all over the exhibition hall at once. Many auto giants sent engineers to watch, which suddenly caused the Heiyun showroom to be overcrowded.

Seeing this situation, the enthusiasm of Heiyun employees was like a chicken blood, and they all received every customer very seriously. Not only to customers, but also to the engineers of the car company, Heiyun employees, all choose to treat them equally.

From the deserted morning to the overcrowded afternoon. Heiyun Automobile Co., Ltd. achieved a reversal and made a gorgeous transformation. In the end, the Heiyun exhibition hall had to make the helpless act of limiting the flow, resulting in many real customers not entering the exhibition hall.

However, as everyone rushed to ask questions, many reporters came to the Heiyun exhibition hall. When we learned that the fuel consumption of the Heiyun 1 series car is only 4 liters per 100 kilometers, everyone knows that tomorrow's newspaper headlines will be.

If Black Cloud Auto can really achieve this effect, then their reports can resonate with the general public. Heiyun Automobile did not achieve the introduction effect, so it is also the Heiyun Group that is embarrassing. At that time, I will write another article saying that I have been deceived by Heiyun and you can make the Heiyun car stink. They won't suffer no matter what, that's the reality.

In the end, the customers in the Heiyun exhibition hall did not leave until the exhibition closed. When we got back to the hotel, all the staff were very tired, but they were able to persevere. After all, there is nothing to do in the morning, and everyone starts to get busy in the afternoon.

Still in Bao Zixuan's room, John Chambers and Hector were reporting on the first day of the exhibition. In fact, Hector also knew that as Heiyun Auto became stronger and stronger, his general manager would definitely be replaced. After all, he is a senior mechanic, not suitable for managers.

At that time, there was really no one in Heiyun Motor Company who could stand up to him, so he chose himself. Hector, who is more self-aware, has long wanted to tell Bao Zixuan that he will leave the management position and concentrate on being a technical worker. It's just that there is no opportunity and the status of Heiyun Automobile in the entire group is very low, and it is OK to make do with it at present.

Bao Zixuan also knows Hector's idea, but the current monthly production of Hector is only 3 units. It is not good and management to insert other personnel hastily, which is why Hector only serves as the general manager of Xiangjiang Heiyun Automobile.

Moreover, this exhibition also specially asked him to bring people from Xiangjiang. After the exhibition, the workers of the German grandfather generation can also have a good rest and relaxation.

Hector: "Boss, today our Knight XV has sold a total of 4 units, and there are no less than 5 intended customers. It can be said that our car has taken the lead in the top European market.

Hearing this, Bao Zixuan really didn't expect it. After all, Germany's auto industry ranks first in the world. Heiyun brought such an expensive car here just to make a gimmick. I didn't expect to sell so many. It can be said that this is an unexpected joy, and it is something that has never been thought of before.
