"What do you mean by Philips?"

After Bob and Jason left, Tan Na thought for a long time but couldn't figure out the reason why Philips did this: she ran over for no reason and told herself that when you were in the United States, you could contact us if you needed any help, and then threw down a business card and ran away. What's going on?

It would be fine if there was business dealings between Lisheng Electronics and Philips, but it was just that there was no business relationship between the two companies. The only intersection between the two companies was the phone call that President Ma Feiming from Philips (Republic) made a domineering call to him. There was no intersection except that. What was going on?

Lin Zheng thought about it for a long time and didn't have an answer, but he looked more openly and comforted Tan Na, "It doesn't matter. Since Philips does this, it means they must have asked us for a place. We will wait for them to contact us even if we keep our troops... I don't think we have to help us if we have anything."

Tan Na nodded, she thought so too.

—————————————————————

Before this, Lin Zheng did not think about how good the relationship between Angelber and Ford was, but when he saw a racing fleet with his own eyes, he finally realized that even if the person who came was not Ford himself, he was also a very senior figure in the Ford Motor Group.

Surrounded by a group of bodyguards, the tall middle-aged man with typical American characteristics came to Lin Zheng and Tan Na and gently stretched out his hand to Lin Zheng. "Mr. Lin, I am Ford."

"Uh..." Lin Zheng, who had never expected Ford to appear here, was suddenly a little busy, "Hello Mr. Ford."

To Lin Zheng's surprise, as the boss of a world-wide large company, Ford's attitude was actually very gentle. He smiled and said to Lin Zheng, "Is this Ms. Tan? Congratulations, your girlfriend is so beautiful!"

Needless to say, this must have been what Angelber told him.

"Thank you for your praise." Lin Zheng and Ford, who are used to being straightforward to Americans, exchanged a few simple greetings, and finally couldn't help it, "Mr. Ford. Please forgive my presumption, you are..."

"Oh, I think the key to understanding the quality of a car's audio is to listen to it myself, from the distance from today's airport to Ford headquarters. These two cars will be driven by my driver in turn. Mr. Lin, is that okay?" At this moment, the super billionaire's momentum was inadvertently reflected, and Lin Zheng did not give him a chance to refute.

"No problem." Lin Zheng answered simply. The negotiations with Ford are not like negotiations with RCA and Texas Instruments. There are always places to use. When negotiations with Ford, their advantages are minimal. At this time, it is obviously meaningless to argue with Ford. "It's just that I have a worry."

"Oh?" Ford, who thought Lin Zheng would never have any questions. He never expected that Lin Zheng would give such an answer. He was stunned for a moment and then said, "What?"

"As Mr. Ford's worth, I believe that the audio equipment used by Mr. Ford must be the world's top-notch, but this set of audio equipment is only for the most ordinary public. The gap... I think even if one of the trivial flaws is stopped in your ears, this flaw will be amplified thousands of times, so..."

Ford was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter. He understood what Lin Zheng meant.

Yes, this worry is very necessary. Just as Lin Zheng said, all the audio and video equipment he comes into contact with every day are the top in the world. These things that are considered top luxury goods to many people are nothing to him. But invisibly, his ears are being tricked by these world's top audio and video equipment. This is not a problem, but if he is asked to evaluate the quality of an entry-level audio and video equipment, Lin Zheng will immediately be troubled... Imagine that you made a person who is used to listening to the piano played by masters all day, and suddenly change his career to listen to a super rookie who has just passed Level 6. Cough cough, can you still listen?

Lin Zheng is worried about this problem. The audio and video system he provides is undoubtedly the highest configuration among this class of models, which can definitely meet the requirements of most customers. But to Ford, it is probably unbearable and a torture for the ears.

"Don't worry, what you are worried about will not happen," Ford patted Lin Zheng's shoulder and laughed. "Lin, I'm afraid you don't know that I will participate in the research and development of every Ford car. The driving experience and sound effects are important things that I pay attention to. I can listen to the noblest and most elegant music, and can listen to such things that are not even entry-level. You don't have to worry at all."

Is that true? Lin Zheng expressed cautious suspicion of Ford's words, but Ford said so, what else can he say? Seeing that Ford had opened the co-pilot door of the carnival in front of him, he had to keep up with a wry smile.

For small cars like Carnival, the co-pilot position is indeed the most comfortable position. However, the two small carnivals are in the middle of a fleet of luxury cars, which looks a bit funny.

………………………………………

"This car is equipped with a single-disc CD player with radio function and simulates 4.1 channel output function. The whole set of audio has 9 speakers, which are 4 mid-bass belts and 4 trebles, plus an overheavalent bass, without an amplifier. The player's maximum mono output power is 45 watts and the maximum power of the speaker is 30 watts. It is no problem for the player to push this speaker. Of course, this is a luxury version, and there is also a normal version configuration. The ordinary version uses four coaxial speakers, which cancels the treble and superheavy bass, but it is enough to meet the general audio and video requirements. The carnival that uses a cassette machine behind has four coaxial speakers..."

Lin Zheng sat in the tight back seat, pointing to the silver player on the front center control panel, which seemed incompatible with the style of the whole vehicle, and said to Ford. "We can provide customized player panels at any time according to customer's requirements, and there is already a test disc inside."

Fu Te nodded, and before Lin Zheng could speak, the player had been turned on. After a few seconds of waiting, a guitar sound like a show-off came into Ford's ears. The feeling of the band playing in front of him made Ford's eyes widen, "don'tcry!"

That's right, this is the classic of Gunflower Band: don’tcry.

At the end of a song, Ford took a long breath. The comprehensive quality of this set of audio was far beyond his expectations. He originally thought that at most it was similar to the set of audio equipment originally used at Carnival, but now it seems that the set of audio equipment used at Carnival is far worse than this set. In Ford's opinion, this set of audio equipment is not a big problem for the Victoria Crown or Taurus, and the sound quality effect is far beyond his expectations.

After changing to another carnival, the quality of the coaxial speaker is indeed lower than that of the segment speaker, but even so, the level of this set of speakers is much beyond Ford's expectations. Pointing at the player, Ford asked Lin Zheng, "Mr. Lin, how much does Ford Motor need to purchase a set of such a player? Well, how much does that CD system cost just now?"

Lin Zheng blinked, "This system is $120, that one is $180."

"$120?$180?" Ford laughed, "Lin, you're not really funny at all in your business."

"Oh? Why am I not here?" Lin Zheng blinked, looking puzzled.

"I know you and Texas Instruments are partners. Judging from the quality of this set of audio, this set is really good. This set is $50 and the set just now is $80. If we agree, we can sign a contract when we go back. The first batch of Ford Motors will not be less than 20,000 sets."

"$50?$80? Why don't you grab it?" Lin Zheng's face darkened, and he felt that he was greatly insulted. "Mr. Ford, the price of the car audio system that I used before on the Carnival with only two speakers will not be less than $100, right? With this set of audio, the price of your car can even be increased by at least $500... Please forgive me for not accepting this price."

"Yes, the previous audio system of the Carnival with only two speakers did cost $100," To Lin Zheng's surprise, Ford nodded and admitted, "But, Mr. Lin, what I want is to reduce the production cost of the car without reducing the overall performance of the audio, but you have given me a big problem. If you use your audio, the cost of my car will increase, which goes against my original intention."

He looked at Lin Zheng with a playful look on his face, and the meaning was very obvious: What should I do if I do this situation?

"Simple," Lin Zheng smiled, "If you need to maintain the original audio configuration of the Carnival, I can do it 30% lower than the original price. But Mr. Ford, I seem to hear that many customers are very dissatisfied with the configuration of the Carnival's simple audio equipment? Although Ford has achieved a considerable degree of customized production, the Carnival is just an A-class car facing ordinary Volkswagen, but facing the pressure of the people, if you improve the configuration of the Carnival while ensuring that the cost does not increase too much is the problem you need to consider at the moment, right?"

"Cunning boy..."
