Chapter 1362: Lost Hope? (Three more, three more to)
Nokia reacted to Lin Hongfei's invitation at almost the speed of light, and they immediately replied to Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd., and immediately sent a high-level negotiation team to the Republic to discuss cooperation with Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd., and firmly believed that Nokia's rich experience and technology in the telecommunications industry could help the development and progress of telecommunications technology in the Republic.
While receiving Nokia's reply, Lin Hongfei also saw the information about Nokia collected by the Strategy Department, but looking at the information about Nokia collected by the Strategy Department, Lin Hongfei's eyes were about to pop out, "What? Nokia is still losing money? ”
In Lin Hongfei's impression, until 2009, Nokia was a giant in the mobile phone industry in the world, and the old rivals such as Motorola, Samsung, Ericsson, and Siemens were pressed under him and could not turn over, and it was unimaginable that Nokia lost money in 1994?
But this is not to blame Lin Hongfei, Ya has been engaged in cars and engines all his life, not mobile phones and electronic technology, although Nokia's mobile phones have been used a lot, but I don't know that Nokia's past experience is not strange at all.
"To be precise, the current Nokia should be defined as on the verge of bankruptcy, they are involved in too many industrial fields, paper, chemicals, rubber, cables, pharmaceuticals, natural gas, oil, military...... It's no wonder if you don't crush them if you get involved in so many unrelated fields at the same time! Jin Yufei, who rushed over after Lin Hongfei, was a little gloating, "But now Nokia is divesting businesses that have nothing to do with the mobile phone business, and the situation should be better after the business related to mobile phones is divested." ”
......Lin Hongfei nodded, but began to calculate in his heart: since Nokia is still on the verge of bankruptcy, in this way, such an order is enough for Nokia to save his life. They can't refuse anyway?
"Who is in charge of Nokia this time?" Confirming this, Lin Hongfei's mind immediately came alive.
"It's not decided yet, but it's said to be a vice president."
"Tell them if I can't see them their president Yoma. Ollila, then Nokia won't be used, I'll give this order to Siemens or Ericsson. Lin Hongfei snorted, Nima was about to run out of food, and he dared to pretend to be forced in front of his buddies?
Jin Yufei never doubted his boss's order, and he barely hesitated for a second. He immediately said, "I'll tell Nokia what you mean." ”
"Hmm," Lin Hongfei responded, thought for a while, and said to Jin Yufei. "That way, don't just spend money. Your strategy department has to figure out a way. Let this 100 million US dollars be able to play as much role as possible, such as the introduction of some technology and the like, in this regard, your strategy department should think as big as possible, not afraid that your lion will open his mouth, we will ask for the price, and they will repay the money on the ground Nokia...... Don't take advantage of Nokia's current difficulties to get something good. It's going to be hard to get something good in the future. ”
"Yes, boss, we know what to do," with the boss's "let's ask for a sky-high price" order. Jin Yufei's eyes lit up, and he nodded heavily, "Boss, don't worry, this time we will definitely squeeze oil out of their Nokia's bones!" ”
"Go ahead, make a good plan." Lin Hongfei nodded, Lin Hongfei still trusted Jin Yufei's talent.
————————————————————————
Lin Hongfei, who was busy with the army entering the telecommunications industry, never thought that FAW Car would come to the door at this time.
But what surprised Lin Hongfei was that it was not the people who FAW Group had dealt with him in the past who came to find him this time, but Mr. Wang Boqi, the R&D engineer of Hongqi Car. Wang Boqi is an old-timer in the domestic automobile field, although limited by vision and knowledge, limited ability, but people have made great contributions to the development of the automobile industry of the republic, Lin Hongfei admires Wang Lao very much.
"Hello Mr. Wang," Lin Hongfei didn't have the slightest shelf in front of Mr. Wang Boqi, and after inviting Wang Boqi to sit down, he asked curiously, "Mr. Wang, what are you ......?" Speaking of this, Lin Hongfei realized that his words were very inappropriate, and quickly explained, "Mr. Wang, don't get me wrong, I'm just a little curious, in the past, you FAW Group and I contacted Li Huanzeng, Vice President Li, this ......"
"I understand, I completely understand," without waiting for Lin Hongfei to finish speaking, Mr. Wang Boyu nodded again and again, his old face was slightly red, "Mr. Lin, I'm ashamed to say it, I won't tell you, this time I came to ask Mr. Lin for your help on behalf of our Hongqi car R&D team." ”
Beg? This word came out of Mr. Wang Boyu's mouth, which startled Lin Hongfei, and hurriedly said, "Don't say that, Mr. Wang, it's all for the development of the country's national car industry, don't ask for anything, as long as the kid can help, just ask, as long as the kid can do it, I can't give up my definition." ”
"Good ......" Mr. Wang nodded again and again, his eyes were a little moist, "Mr. Lin, whether our Hongqi car can be revitalized this time depends on your ......"
"Stop, old man, you must stop," Lin Hongfei hurriedly stopped Wang Boqi's words, what he said was too damning, and it was a loss for Lin Hongfei to know the character of Mr. Wang Boqi, otherwise just change someone over, Lin Hongfei had to wonder if this girl was suspicious and ready to kill herself, "Old man, you must not say that, Hongqi car is a banner of the automobile industry of the Republic and the pride of FAW car, When will it be the turn of Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd., the small character of the automobile industry of the republic, to worry about it? You say, what do you want the kid to do? ”
"I brought the two cars we developed, old man, I know that Mr. Lin has some connections in the automotive media, can you let the people know that we can actually make good cars?" With Lin Hongfei's words, Mr. Wang Boqi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The old man has been engaged in a lifetime of technology, but now, the leaders of the FAW Group do not look down on Hongqi, and want to cooperate with Volkswagen. Everyone thinks it's a good car, but one leader said, "I just don't love this car!" Think about the glorious history of Hongqi car, and then look at the downfall of Hongqi car, isn't it just a downfall and sadness?
"This is easy to say," Hearing that it was just such a small thing, Lin Hongfei's mood suddenly relaxed: I still think it's a big deal, it's just to help say a few good words, it's simple! But hesitated. Lin Hongfei, who couldn't bear to see the Hongqi sedan with such a down-and-out appearance, finally opened his mouth, "Elder Wang, I'll tell you the truth, it's okay to help you say a few good words, it's all a trivial matter." But have you ever thought about a question in the FAW Group: how do you define Hongqi car? Do you have a complete plan for Hongqi Automobile? IMHO. If you also define Hongqi sedan as a high-level official car, a top-level executive car or a courtesy car. There is no clear development plan to revitalize Hongqi sedan......"
After that, Lin Hongfei shook his head, although he didn't finish his words, the meaning was already obvious: if Hongqi Sedan continued to be so muddy, he was not very optimistic about the future of Hongqi Sedan .
What is the definition of Hongqi sedan? A complete development plan for Hongqi cars? Heard Lin Hongfei's words. Mr. Wang Boyu was stunned for a moment: he had never thought about this problem.
Not only him, but the entire FAW and the entire Hongqi car design team have never thought about these two issues, in everyone's opinion. Isn't the Hongqi sedan a high-end sedan for D and senior leaders of the country?
But now, thinking carefully about the two questions asked by Lin Hongfei, the old man has a deafening feeling in his heart: That's right, we shout about the revitalization of Hongqi cars all day long, but can our definition of Hongqi cars really only be limited to D and the senior executive cars of national leaders? As for the development plan of Hongqi car...... What is the development plan of Hongqi car? It's completely a mallet in the east and a hammer in the west.
Looking at Mr. Wang Boyu's appearance, Lin Hongfei already knew the answer in his heart, and he felt a little sad in his heart: But as far as ethics are concerned, each of these people is a lever, but it is limited by the restrictions of the times and vision, coupled with some institutional factors, the development of cars is more of a political task, a great project that needs to do a good job in long-term planning and short-term development goals, but it must be completed in the name of political tasks, and the results can be imagined.
"Let's take a look at the car you brought," Lin Hongfei didn't want to stimulate Old Man Wang anymore, really if he was angry with himself, he would definitely not be able to eat and walk around, "Anyway, let's finish this step first." ”
"Yes, yes, let's go see the car first." Old Man Wang nodded hurriedly.
…………………………………………
In order to ask Lin Hongfei for "guidance", Mr. Wang specially brought two cars this time, both of which are the proud works of the old man: a Hongqi CA770D-3E and a Hongqi CA7650.
When he saw the Hongqi CA770D-3E at the head, Lin Hongfei almost fell on his head: I know that the Hongqi car is an imitation of the American sedan from the very beginning, and the first-generation Hongqi CA72 is a product that combines the "advantages" of Cadillac fleetwood and Lincoln continental, plus some "independent innovation", but it is still Cadillac and Lincoln in the bones.
However, the first-generation Hongqi CA72 looks not so Cadillac and Lincoln in appearance, but this CA770D-3E is a bit excessive, from the appearance, this product is a simplified version of the Cadillac fleetwood and Lincoln towncar hybrid, especially the iconic front face, except for the different logos, it is no different from Lincoln towncar!
As for the CA7650 next to it, it has the style of the old Hongqi CA770, but the more Boss Lin looks at it, the more annoyed he is in his heart: Old Wangtou, your CA7650 is the one I designed for you FAW Car before, right? It's one thing for me to respect you, but it's a bit too unauthentic for you to take what I designed, not to change it at all, and say that it was designed by you, right? …… At this time, of course, Boss Lin would not remember that he was also "pirated" of the Red Flag inspection car at the military parade in 99.
Old man Wang is not stupid, seeing Lin Hongfei's eyes that almost want to breathe fire when he looked at the Hongqi CA7650, his old face suddenly turned red: It's not a problem to steal food, but when you steal food, you will take the stolen things to show off in front of the stolen bitter master, which is a bit excessive...... Not the usual excess.
Never mind! Seeing the ashamed eyes of Old Man Wang, Lin Hongfei was full of resentment, but he couldn't say a word at the moment, what else could he say to such a respectable old man?
But...... Help? At this moment, not beating or scolding others has already made Lin Hongfei feel that he is very self-contained, and he still helps?! And, how to help? The Hongqi sedan has become a symbol and symbol, and its development can be counted by itself?
Since he couldn't help, Lin Hongfei simply told the truth to Mr. Wang Boyu, "Old man, I'll tell you the truth, your request makes me very embarrassed, just now you told me that you want to build Hongqi car into the Mercedes-Benz of the Republic, for your ambition, I admire it, boy, but our company also produces high-end cars, and there are Hongqi cars with a large overlapping plate, how can you let me help with this favor?" Don't say that one mountain can't tolerate two tigers, just say that I want to help, but my idea, do you FAW leaders dare to listen? ”
Lin Hongfei's words can really be said to be heart-wrenching, hearing Lin Hongfei say this, Wang Boyu was suddenly dumbfounded, "Yes, I just thought about asking Lin Hongfei to help revitalize Hongqi car, but I forgot that Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd. also has its own luxury car, and I don't care about my own car brand, so I worry about other people's cars, how can there be such a reason in this world?
Thinking about this, the next moment, the old man was like a few decades of time in an instant, and he suddenly aged at least twenty years old.
"Could it be...... Is there no other way? Looking at the two cars, the old man muttered to himself in despair, and his tone was only desolate, which made people cry when they heard it.
The dream that I have placed in my heart for a lifetime is now about to be shattered, and no one can stand it.
"......" Lin Hongfei smiled bitterly and didn't speak, what did he say?
Cutting meat to feed eagles? Boss Lin never thought that his consciousness could be as high as this. (To be continued......)
