Chapter 866 Waiting for you to come to me and ask for a salary increase
This guy is a little interesting. Looking at Tux Haye, Lin Zheng suddenly laughed: "Very good, then who do you recommend? Alfa Romeo?"
As the most sporty and personalized brand under Fiat for mid-to-high-end mass groups, Lin Zheng has a good impression of Alfa Romeo. In Europe, Alfa Romeo is a sports luxury sedan brand that can compete with BMW. It has a profound technical foundation in chassis. A few years later, a domestic car company once introduced Alfa Romeo's 159 chassis to develop a good car. Unfortunately, in the era when joint venture brands were already on the rise, coupled with pricing issues, the sales of that car can be described as "terrible", but it is undeniable that it is indeed a good car. ↗
"No," facing Lin Zheng's gaze, Tux Haye slowly shook his head: "Alfa Romeo is very good, but their life is still acceptable now. I recommend Lancia."
"Lanqia?" Although he was calm on the surface, a hint of surprise flashed in Lin Zheng's eyes.
Lin Zheng knows the car brand of Lancia. Although Lancia has never entered the country from beginning to end, as a second-hand car dealer, Lin Zheng naturally knows more about cars than ordinary people. Perhaps for many Chinese people, Lancia is just an Italian brand that they have heard of occasionally but do not understand at all. However, Lin Zheng knows that Lancia's status in Europe is even higher than that of Alfa and Romeo. For example, the good Alfa and Romeo that I bought in Europe now is benchmarked against the BMW 5 Series, but Lancia's thema is benchmarked against the BMW m5.
Italy, Lancia is a car with extremely high B-shaped car. It is the official designated car. The Italian President and Prime Minister must be Lancia. Its size is very good, and its status can be compared with Mercedes-Benz, Audi and BMW. Well, the sales are a bit worse.
"Yes, Lancia."
"Why is Lanqia?" Lin Zheng asked calmly.
"Because Alfa Romeo has good sales to support, sales means influence, employment rate, and he still has the capital to bargain, but Lancia?" Speaking of this, Tux Haye shook his head disdainfully: "Since the bete model crisis in the 1980s, Lancia's market share has been shrinking. In addition to Italian officials, Italians are still using it. Lancia is in European countries except Italy, in North America, South America... in any part of the world, sales can be described as "terrible". This is our opportunity."
When talking about the bete car, even Lin Zheng couldn't help but twitch his face: It's not just a terrible sight. The history of the Lanqiabet model can be considered a terrible fighter. Lin Zheng even seriously suspected that the Japanese in later generations tried their best to cut corners on cars were learned from Italians.
Why do I say that? Because the bete car is a car that has really fallen from the altar. It is a car that almost caused the Lancia to hang up: the body steel plates of this car are unprecedentedly thin, and the wind with a slightly stronger hand can deform the body; this is not the most deadly, but the most deadly thing is that the rust prevention of this car is not good. As long as it rains, the bete car will be rusted. Such a low-quality car will naturally make users complain.
It would be fine if the car failed. But when the crisis occurred, Lancia thought she was high-end, just like the magic car several years later. She played the cold and arrogant style in front of consumers, but obviously, European consumers would not be like consumers in the Republic who were indulging in Lancia like consumers in the Republic. Lancia, who was pretending to behave, soon found that she had become a fool. Lancia encountered the biggest public relations crisis since the company was founded!
As a for-profit enterprise, if you continue to show off in this situation, you will be unable to live up to your life. Lancia had to bow his head and spend a huge amount of money to buy back all the rusty beta for rust removal.
But the title of "The Best Pig Teammate in World War II" is not a waste of time. At this time, Lancia made another fatal mistake: they repurchased the bete that was removed after repurchasing and renovating it and then sold it to consumers again!
The consequences are conceivable. "The Best Pig Teammate in World War II" fell into the same pit twice. Almost overnight, Lancia became synonymous with garbage, and the sales of all its models plummeted. Italian competitors such as Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Volkswagen, Audi, Renault, Citroen and PSA naturally would not miss this good opportunity to take advantage of the situation. Lancia, which could have been against the BMW M5, immediately turned into a bunch of European stinky shit, and even Italians themselves refused to buy it: If I don't buy Lancia, I can always buy Fiat and Alfa Romeo, right?
I have to say that in this case, the Fiat Group still hugged Lancia tightly and spared no effort to support them. It can only explain one thing: the chairman of the Fiat Group, the respected Mr. Giovanni Agnelli, is full of true love for Lancia.
However, it is one thing that "the best pig teammate in World War II" has a trick on his boss, but Lin Zheng also admitted that Lancia does have a deep foundation in medium-sized and medium-sized sports luxury cars. If Lianchuang Technology can really get some technical skills from Fiat Group, it is indeed the most likely that Lancia, which lives a similar life to drinking yellow lotus water every day.
"Are you sure?" Lin Zheng suddenly asked at Tux Hayes.
"I only have 20%. "Tucks Haye said honestly.
But this is enough to surprise Lin Zheng. Is his 20% confidence very low? No, on the contrary, this is already a very amazing possibility. Lin Zheng was shocked by Tux Hayes for a moment, pondered for a moment, and asked Tux Hayes for a moment, "Why?"
Tux Haye knew very well that this was an opportunity to show his strength and connections to his new boss. For professional managers who have reached this level, ability is of course very important, but in addition to ability, connections are actually valued by the boss. Now it is an excellent opportunity to show his weight to his new boss. Upon hearing this, Tux Haye immediately said without hesitation: "When I was at Opel Auto, I met many senior executives of Fiat, one of whom was from the Agnelli family, and now he works in Lancia."
Is there such a relationship? If so, then the probability is probably more than 20%. A glimmer of light flashed in Lin Zheng's eyes: "Your relationship is good?"
“As long as there is enough value, our relationship will be good.”
Tux Haye said something a little vaguely, but Lin Zheng understood immediately. Slowly, a smile appeared on Lin Zheng's face: "So... Mr. Tux Haye, how long does it take to investigate Jiangbei Alto?"
"At least one month!" Tux Haye said without hesitation.
"Very good! Well, let me tell you the good news, Mr. Paul Cantalera, CEO of Fiat Group, is in our country now."
"What?!" Tux Haye was immediately surprised.
"Fiat Group is negotiating a cooperation with our country's Nanqi Group. I'm not talking about this," said a little while, and seeing Tux Haye nodding, Lin Zheng then said: "I just met Paul Cantalera a few days ago. Fiat Group has a strong interest in cooperating with me... Do you understand what I mean when I say that?"
"I understand," Tux Haye nodded in a state of emotion, and the arrogance on his face also dissipated a lot: "Sir, while investigating the production, R&D and sales links of Jiangbei Alto, your country's automobile consumption habits and environment are also the focus of my research."
No wonder this guy was able to be the first vice chairman of Opel Automobile North America branch. This guy's brain is indeed very good. Lin Zheng felt more satisfied with Tux Haye: "Very good, I'm waiting for your good news...Mr. Tux, I hope that when I see you again, you can ask me to give you a better salary labor contract."
This is his future new boss who promised him that if he could show his value, he would not mind giving a higher salary. Tux Haye smiled knowingly and nodded and said, "It seems that you are a generous boss. I will ask you to raise my salary, but don't worry, I will make you feel that every cent you pay me is worth the money."
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
The result of the interview with Tux Haye made Lin Zheng very happy. Although this guy can't become the CEO of Jiangbei Alto for the time being, this guy has a very flexible mind. The most important thing is that as a German, this guy is rare and unruly and willing to go deep into and study hard. This is too rare. In Lin Zheng's impression, Germans can always equate with stereotyped machines, but now it seems that he has some misunderstandings about the Germans.
Lin Zheng was very happy. Mr. Lin, who was in the Temple of Heaven Park, was also very happy. To be more precise, the old man was trembling with excitement now: "Zhuzi, is it really you? Your baby is not dead yet?"
"Old company commander, it's really me. I'm not dead yet." Another 70-year-old man who was in his twilight and trembling, like Mr. Lin, was wearing a white-washed old military uniform and burst into tears: "How dare I die if I haven't seen you, the old company commander? Old company commander, where have you been going over the years? I think you are so bitter about Zhuzi..." (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better and faster!
