Chapter 1152

It was Sergei Shestakov who communicated with Huateng Industrial Group. After all, he was the one who communicated with Zhang Qihang at the beginning, but this time, Sergei Shestakov felt a little uncertain , did not dare to go to Zhang Qihang, but went to visit Jiang He first.

And Jiang He's reaction was not much better. Before Sergey Shestakov could finish his sentence, Jiang He exploded: "What? Hang your car logo? No way! This is absolutely not possible! What is this? ?”

"Mr. Jiang, please listen to my explanation." This matter is so significant to the Volga Automobile that Sergey Shestakov also said in a low voice: "I can fully understand your reaction, but to propose such a Our request, we also have difficulties...you listen to my explanation first..."

It took Jiang He a lot of effort to calm himself down. He took two deep breaths, looked at Sergey Shestakov and nodded: "Okay, you explain..."

He had already made up his mind that if Sergei Shestakov's explanation did not satisfy him, then he had to doubt the sincerity of the old man's cooperation.

Sergei Shestakov nodded again and again, and then said: "Okay...Mr. Jiang, the reason why we made such a request is actually helpless. You may not be very clear that your country's products are sold in Russia. In fact, the reputation of China is not particularly good, and these bad reputations are not just a matter of a day or two. As early as 10 years ago, in the early 90s, the down jackets and leather shoes sold to us by those poor men in your country were all It is a very poor quality product... Although the situation has improved a lot in recent years, there are still a lot of fake and shoddy products from your country..."

After hearing Sergei Shestakov's reasons, Jiang He didn't know what to say for a while.

Is what Sergei Shestakov said true?It’s really true, and Jiang He himself knows very well that in the years when the Soviet Union just disintegrated, the products shipped to Russia by the poor man cannot be said to be all counterfeit and shoddy products, but counterfeit and shoddy products do occupy a considerable proportion of them, "made In China"'s reputation has been tarnished since then.

Over the years, although the state has been vigorously cracking down on counterfeit and shoddy new products and companies and merchants that manufacture counterfeit products, how can we say this kind of thing? It can only be said that the reason why these companies can manufacture counterfeit products is that who has no local energy?Therefore, although compared with the early and mid-90s, there are many fewer counterfeit and shoddy products from China in the Russian market, but they have not been cut off.

"Good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles" is a good saying. The old men bought the high-quality products produced by Huaxia, and they would not say anything, because they took it for granted (the production of qualified products is originally a family. Enterprises should be divided), but if they buy fake and shoddy products produced by Huaxia, the old men will inevitably talk about it with the people around them when chatting. Most Chinese products are good, but "the quality of Chinese products is not very good" has become the consensus of most Russians.

So is Volga's concern justified?Indeed, Jianghe couldn't say that people's worries were unreasonable. Perhaps it would be more conducive to sales to replace the car with the Volga Automobile Company's own logo.

What should I do?
For a while, Jiang He also had a headache: Thinking about it this way, the request from the Volga Automobile does not seem to be particularly excessive. After all, they also considered the current market situation and made such a request from the perspective of facilitating sales.

Looking at the frowning and silent Jiang He, Sergei Shestakov hurriedly said: "Of course, considering the friendship between us, we have also carefully considered this matter, and the final thought is that if your The two parties agreed to export complete vehicles to my country in the form of an 'OEM', and all the vehicles exported to Russia will use the GAZ Golden Deer logo instead of the Lada logo."

Jiang He's brows twitched a little: "With the GAZ logo?"

Seeing that Jiang He's tone seemed loose, Sergei Shestakov breathed a sigh of relief, and explained: "Yes, it's the GAZ logo...Mr. Jiang, at your age, you should have seen GAZ cars Right? During the Soviet Union, our country exported a lot of GAZ-21 and GAZ-24 cars to your country.”

Jiang He nodded, and replied, "Yes, I have an impression."

As long as you know!
You know the GAZ car, the following words are easy to say.

Sergey Shestakov hurriedly said: "Then you should know that in the former Soviet Union the GAZ car was a representative of high-end cars, and only officials who had reached a certain level of administrative level were eligible to use it. Those GAZ-21 and GAZ-24 cars are also equipped for the use of leading cadres above the middle and senior levels, so you should be able to imagine that GAZ cars have a very high status in the hearts of our Russian people, roughly equivalent to your country’s Hongqi cars The position in the hearts of the people of your country, these Excelle and Tiggo cars exported to our Russia are hung with the GAZ Golden Deer logo, and are sold through our Volga sales channels, this is our greatest sincerity for cooperation."

Jiang He pondered.

He did not doubt Sergei Shestakov's words. Jianghe knew that the GAZ car was also a representative of mid-to-high-end cars in the former Soviet Union, second only to the Jill car that was exclusively used by the Soviet core. The Excelle and Tiggo exported to Russia hang the GAZ logo, which really reflects the great sincerity of the Volga Automobile Factory, but...

After thinking for a while, Jiang He finally made a decision: "Mr. Shestakov, I understand what you mean, and I will convey your meaning to Mr. Zhang as soon as possible."

Sergey Shestakov didn't expect Jiang He to agree to it straight away. If he didn't refuse and agreed to convey the matter to Zhang Qihang, Sergey Shestakov would be satisfied. Now that Jiang He agreed After he got down, Sergei Shestakov let out a sigh of relief, and thanked Jiang He in multiple voices.

....................................

After seeing off Sergey Shestakov, Jiang He thought for a moment, then got up and went to Zhang Qihang's office.

While Jiang He was talking, Zhang Qihang nodded. When Jiang He finished speaking, Zhang Qihang pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "Old Jiang, you have been fooled."

"I was fooled?"

Jiang He was taken aback when he heard this: What have I been fooled by?
Zhang Qihang asked back: "Let me ask you, when the old Maozi first contacted us, what was their purpose?"

"The purpose of the old man when he first contacted us? It was to introduce the Excelle car..." At this point, Jiang He was stunned for a moment, then his face changed, and he cursed angrily: "Fuck! I just said Shesta When Kove told me about this, I always vaguely felt that something was wrong, but I didn’t know what was wrong, and the root of the emotion lies here.”

Jiang He was very annoyed, feeling that he was being tricked by the old man.

"Besides, Shestakov actually exaggerated the bad reputation of our Chinese products in the Russian market," Zhang Qihang continued: "It is true that a considerable part of our country's products exported to Russia in the early years were of poor quality, but these In recent years, with the country's attention and the crackdown on counterfeit and shoddy products, it cannot be said that inferior Chinese products can no longer be seen in Russia, but it is not too much to say that 99% of the products are qualified, otherwise why there are so many Chinese products in Russia , there are quite a lot of electronic products such as TV sets, DVD players and even computers?"

Jiang He's face turned red instantly, and he turned around with a snort and was about to go out.

Zhang Qihang hurriedly grabbed him: "Lao Jiang, what are you doing?"

"I'm going to settle accounts with that bastard Shestakov! I was a little embarrassed to hear him fool around..."

Jiang He was furious. When Sergey Shestakov said those words to him, he still felt a little guilty. He felt sorry for those Russian people who were cheated by fake and shoddy businessmen. But now Hearing what Zhang Qihang said, Jiang He finally realized: Feelings were almost fooled by Shestakov?

"Hehe...it's not necessary, isn't it because you don't know much about the Russian market?" Zhang Qihang smiled and pushed him back on the sofa, and said, "Speaking of which, Lao Jiang, you don't have to be angry, you have to think so, our In fact, the purpose is to sell the car to Russia. As long as the car can be sold to the Russian market, as for the OEM, the introduction of the model, the export of the whole car, or other methods, we care about so many methods. Which method is the best? Use whichever."

Jiang He frowned: "You mean to agree to Lao Maozi's conditions?"

Zhang Qihang shook his head, then nodded again: "This old Maozi's proposal is worth considering, but whether to accept it or not, we have to think about it again, and see if there are other ways that are more beneficial to us and more feasible to implement."

Jiang He understood now: If the other methods are really difficult, then the old Maozi's condition may not be unacceptable, but then again, if there are other better methods, then Sergei Shesta The condition that Cove put forward before must not be agreed.

After thinking about it, Jiang He also felt that this was a good way. Just like Mr. Zhang said, the ultimate goal of Huateng Group is to sell the car to the Russian market. It is indeed a way to export cars to Russia through "OEM"... At the very least, the output has increased, money has been made, and related supporting facilities have been stimulated and developed. Isn't that good?

But Mr. Zhang is right, this is the last choice, after all, Huateng Group still wants to enter the "Huateng Automobile" into the Russian market.

Thinking of this, Jiang He asked, "Then what do you mean..."

"Let the old man give us a timetable, how long they plan to cooperate in this way, and when they plan to introduce our Excelle car," Zhang Qihang said: "I guess the reason why they will make such a small The abacus is also worried that Excelle will not be acclimatized after going to Russia, and wants to reduce the financial pressure in this way."

Jiang He nodded: "It seems to be the reason."

"In addition, the old Maozi has to express something," Zhang Qihang continued: "We need to let the old Maozi understand that we can understand their difficulties, but they also have to give us a time schedule. In addition, we have made such a big deal. What kind of compensation do they intend to give us for the concession?
We can’t let them take all this for granted, that they overwhelmed us in the negotiation, but let them understand that we took the initiative to take a step back to help them, and they must show sincerity, if they can’t give enough Sincerity, then we will doubt their sincerity in this cooperation. "

With Zhang Qihang's words, Jiang He's heart became clear, and he replied, "I know what to do."

Zhang Qihang nodded with a smile.

Looking at the red-eyed Jiang He, Zhang Qihang mourned for the Russians: Do you really think Lao Jiang is such a fool?

..............................

While Jiang He was talking with Sergey Shestakov and Valentin Matviyenko, Mr. Feng, who had arrived at Volkswagen headquarters, also called Zhang Qihang.

On the phone, Mr. Feng and Zhang Qihang talked about his communication with Volkswagen: "Mr. Zhang, Volkswagen's current idea is that they can transfer part of the chassis technology of the Audi A6L to our Fengya car, and even help us make it. Tuning, what do you think?"

"It's just the Audi A6L?" Zhang Qihang frowned: "It's not a little less sincerity, it's a lot less."

"Hehe, I also think so," Mr. Feng said with a smile: "But in the next contact, people from Volkswagen told me in private that if we feel dissatisfied, they can sell some of the Audi A8. Chassis technology is also used to make deals with us."

"Hey! Are you even willing to use the technology of the Audi A8?" Zhang Qihang was a little surprised: "Are they really willing?"

Surprise is not really surprise. The chassis technology of the Audi A8 sounds awesome, but can these technologies compare with the impact on them after the diesel exhaust cheating incident broke out?Volkswagen's approach is still stingy, and it is a bargaining chip that wants to exchange one dollar for 100 yuan in the hands of Huateng Group.

"Yeah, I'm also a little surprised," Mr. Feng nodded with a smile: "But I told them, I can feel the sincerity of their cooperation, but these are not enough, let them think about their cooperation after this incident broke out." The possible loss, now we give them a chance to make up for their omissions, and I ask them, 'You guys say, how much is this opportunity worth?'."

Hearing what Old Master Feng said, Zhang Qihang laughed loudly: "Haha...that's right, that's it, that guy's face must have been quite ugly at that time, right?"

"It's not just ugly." Mr. Feng also laughed, in a great mood: "That guy's face was ashen at the time, and he couldn't say a word."

"Hahaha……"

Zhang Qihang laughed again.
