Chapter 1089 The future boss's advice
Regarding Liu Siying's appearance, Sun Ying and others only expressed surprise for a while and then returned to normal. They did not invest too much attention in Liu Siying. After all, for them, now it is working time.
As for welcome and other things, let’s talk about it after the exhibition is over.
Not long after Bai Ningyuan and the others arrived, bursts of noise came from afar. The exhibition had begun. Media reporters and related professionals from all over the world all poured into the huge exhibition area from the entrance. At a short time, the originally empty exhibition area was filled with dense scenes.
Bai Ningyuan did not intend to stay in his own exhibition area for too long. This is not the first time the staff present have participated in the auto show. They have rich experience in participating in the exhibition. Moreover, Bai Ningyuan has seen the relevant exhibition plans before, so there is no need to stay here all the time. Instead, it increases the psychological pressure of the staff present.
After taking Liu Siying and saying something to Sun Ying and the others, he followed Mo Lan and Long Juncai and wandered around the entire exhibition center.
As mentioned earlier, in order to deal with this Geneva Auto Show, various manufacturers have almost tried their best to produce their latest works, and the new products on site also made Bai Ningyuan finally find a feeling of watching the auto show in his previous life.
Theoretically speaking, in 2008, the appearance of foreign cars was basically close to the level when Bai Ningyuan first entered the automobile industry in his previous life, so there was no need to let Bai Ningyuan endure the embarrassment of being ugly.
After walking for most of the time, Bai Ningyuan finally saw two other familiar Chinese brand logos in another exhibition area, Biarty and Huaxia.
This time they went to the Geneva Motor Show, just like emp, they were ambitious to explore the European market.
Especially China, this is not the first time they have participated in the Geneva Motor Show. At last year's Geneva Motor Show, China once made three models with high-profile appearances, which also received praise from many European media and expectations from consumers. However, the poor results of Deutsche AAC's collision test of China BS6 shortly after, the poor results caused China Automobile to encounter unprecedented safety doubts in Europe, which directly affected the image of China Automobile brand in the European market. The actual sales of BS6 after logging into the European market were also pitifully small.
Although Huaxia Auto responded almost immediately, improved the safety of BS6, and obtained the results of e-ncap Samsung in the subsequent independent tests, Huaxia still faces considerable negative brand pressure in the European market.
This exhibition is undoubtedly a key battle for Huaxia to reshape the brand. Therefore, Huaxia Automobile spent almost a lot of money and created various big scenes. It was so high-profile to attract many attentions to itself.
As for Biarti, he is much smarter. After witnessing the success of emp in the overseas market, Biarti had nothing to do in the traditional automobile field during this period. Therefore, they also participated in the Geneva Motor Show for the first time, focusing on models that use hybrid and new energy technologies, bringing a "natural gas-electric" hybrid sedan and a socket-charged pure electric sedan. They want to take advantage of the opportunity of this Geneva Motor Show to participate in the competition for international new energy models.
The popularity of emp in the overseas market is like guiding a new door for domestic auto manufacturers, making them realize that the opportunity to narrow the gap with mainstream brands in the future is right in front of them, so there are more and more brands participating in this industry.
"You are Bai Ningyuan?"
When we arrived at the Biarty booth, Bai Ningyuan and Liu Siying were watching the introduction of the two new energy vehicles, a somewhat uncertain voice rang in their ears.
Bai Ningyuan turned his head and saw a middle-aged man wearing glasses and a suit and tie standing behind him, looking at Bai Ningyuan with a look of uncertainty on his face.
"You are?" Bai Ningyuan felt that he was very unfamiliar and couldn't help asking in confusion. After hearing his words, Molan and Long Juncai subconsciously raised a hint of vigilance, looking at the man without blinking.
Seeing Bai Ningyuan admitting his identity, a faint smile appeared on the man's face, and then quickly introduced himself to Bai Ningyuan: "It turns out that he is really Mr. Bai. I just saw you familiar with me. I will introduce myself. I am Wang Chuan of Biarty. I met here. It's really fate!"
Hearing his words, Bai Ningyuan couldn't help but look a little surprised. Obviously, he didn't expect to meet Wang Chuan here. However, after thinking about it, it was reasonable. This was the first time that Biarty had gone abroad. As the president, Wang Chuan came to "supervise the battle" himself. It was normal. Just like when the emp participated in a domestic auto show a few years ago, Bai Ningyuan stayed at the scene every time.
Wang Chuan is definitely a legendary figure. He started out as a battery, and his partners include global giants such as Nokia and Motorola. Later, he produced cars and brought Buffett to support himself. Although his business is mainly concentrated in China, he can make full use of international resources.
"It turns out it's Mr. Wang, who has been admired for a long time." Bai Ningyuan showed a polite smile on his face and said to Wang Chuan.
Wang Chuan can really describe Bai Ningyuan's name as well as thunderous. However, among the various rumors about Bai Ningyuan, Wang Chuan subconsciously felt that Bai Ningyuan was not a good person to meet, but when he truly saw Bai Ningyuan and felt Bai Ningyuan's enthusiasm, he immediately subconsciously felt flattered.
However, Wang Chuan has experienced various major occasions at least, so he quickly reacted and smiled and said to Bai Ningyuan: "I should be the one who should be revered for a long time. I am well aware of your name, Mr. Bai."
Of course, he also saw Liu Siying beside Bai Ningyuan, but Wang Chuan had already passed the age of gossip, so he was tactful and did not pay any attention to Liu Siying, but instead pulled Bai Ningyuan into Biarty's exhibition area and acted as an interpreter for Bai Ningyuan.
His actions immediately attracted the attention of many people at the scene, and they all had a hint of curiosity about Bai Ningyuan.
"I didn't expect that Biarty is also making new energy vehicles now, and has achieved a lot of results. I used to think that our emp is the only one in China. Now it seems that it's really a bit like watching the sky!" After listening to Wang Chuan explaining the pure plug-in F3 to himself, Bai Ningyuan couldn't help but turn his head and smile at Wang Chuan and said, saying that this statement obviously means that he has a considerable evaluation of this car.
In fact, it is not difficult to understand. Biarty started out as a battery, so he has unique advantages in battery life.
Hearing Bai Ningyuan's words, Wang Chuan suddenly felt a little joy, but he still said to Bai Ningyuan modestly: "Where is it? If emp is the second place in the domestic new energy vehicle field, who dares to be the first? We are just doing research and development based on the original automobile, how can we compare to emp's boldness and courage to launch new things from scratch. Compared with you, we are just making small fuss. But Mr. Bai, I have a question. I would like to ask you, are you really optimistic about the prospects of new energy vehicles?"
At this time, Wang Chuan was already talking with Bai Ningyuan with some meaning.
Chinese people have a special emotion. Although there are often conflicts between people in China, once they go abroad, Chinese people seem to be spontaneously hugging each other. That unique Chinese language can instantly bring two strangers closer to each other.
It is precisely because of this that in this foreign country, two people who have never met in the mall can have a friendly conversation like friends whom God has been having for a long time.
Facing Wang Chuan's questions, Bai Ningyuan had a faint smile on his face: "About my previous proposal at the political and business meeting, I don't know if you have heard of it. At present, domestic air pollution has reached a very serious level, and in this case, automobile exhaust occupies a very important factor. Therefore, in the future, not only because of energy factors, but also environmental protection reasons, the promotion of new energy vehicles is a foregone conclusion. After all, compared with oil, whether it is electricity, natural gas, methanol fuel or even hydrogen.
It is not possible to note that these are clean energy and are being used on a large scale. They are just a matter of time and technology. Of course, they are not solved at the technical level. In addition, they involve interest games. To promote new energy vehicles, it is not a project that can be seen and profitable in the short term. Relatively speaking, in Europe and the United States, where the thinking is more open, people have a deeper acceptance of new things, and the difficulty of promoting them here is much less than that in China. I think this should be one of the reasons why Mr. Wang, you lead the team to participate in this auto show!”
Maybe Bai Ningyuan told her the truth, and Wang Chuan just smiled.
This time he brought new energy vehicles to the Geneva Motor Show, which was not a bit of a test. He wanted to see the reactions of Europe and then determine whether to continue to study in this field in depth. In the domestic environment, if you want to break through many obstacles, you must start with overseas promotion like emp, and then affect the domestic market, and take the route of "surrounding the domestic overseas".
I can only say that on this promotion road, he and Bai Ningyuan are all heroes who have similar views...
Today's second update, thank the helm leader for his kind reward of "a good name changes life" and bow to thank him!
Chapter completed!
