Chapter 1408 Already World-Class

After entering the room, Nakata Satoshi was still very polite and bowed to Gu Mingjun and Secretary Wang: "Hello, Gu Jun, you are here too, Wang Jun."

Gu Mingjun's face was solemn: "Mr. Nakata, we are really in big trouble."

"Oh?"

Satoshi Nakata raised his eyebrows: Didn’t I come here just to deal with trouble?

Gu Mingjun didn't beat around the bush with Nakata Satoshi and said directly: "Hua Teng Automobile has launched a high-performance version of Excelle, with acceleration from 5.9 to 4.9 km/h in seconds and seconds respectively."

"Nani??"

When Satoshi Nakata heard this, he was completely stunned.

Like Secretary Wang and Gu Mingjun, Satoshi Nakata also knew what this 100-kilometer acceleration meant.

"You heard it right, and I didn't say it wrong either," Gu Mingjun nodded affirmatively, pointing to the computer in front of him, "The 5.9-4.9km/h acceleration is seconds and seconds respectively. Sohu.com has already reported this...Mr. Nakata, you should know the relationship between Sohu.com and Huateng Group."

Sohu.com has reported it? Nakata Satoshi was anxious. He hurriedly said, "Do you mind if I take a look at it together?"

Satoshi Nakata has a very good Chinese reading ability, and surfing the Internet is even one of his personal hobbies.

"of course."

Seeing Gu Mingjun nod, Nakata Satoshi didn't care about being polite anymore and quickly walked to Gu Mingjun's computer. Looking at the page title that Gu Mingjun had specially moved to the top, his eyes suddenly went dark...

Gu Mingjun quickly supported him: "Mr. Nakata, are you okay?"

"I'm fine," Nakata Satoshi shook his head, trying to keep himself awake. When he finished reading the entire page, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Gu Mingjun: "Gu, how did they do it?"

At this moment, the expression on Nakata Satoshi's face was even confused.

"I don't know either," Gu Mingjun said with a wry smile. "Look at the comments from netizens below. Everyone thinks it's incredible and unbelievable. But from what I know about Zhang Qihang, this is most likely true."

Satoshi Nakata said nothing and nodded silently.

  He agreed with Gu Mingjun's statement, because he had the same answer in his heart: this thing is likely to be true. But it is precisely because of this that Nakata Satoshi is particularly puzzled: the acceleration of less than 5 seconds is roughly equivalent to the Porsche 928 GTS. With such strong technical strength of the Otter, the flagship sports car Supra Turbo, which is known as the "Bull Demon King", can only achieve a 4.6-second acceleration from 39900 to 4 kilometers in the hands of professional racers. In order to achieve this acceleration capability, the Supra Turbo is completely designed and manufactured according to the design concept of super sports cars. The price in the North American market is as high as 5 US dollars. So, how did Huateng Group make a Corolla-level car achieve -second and -second acceleration?

Can't figure it out!

Satoshi Nakata couldn't figure it out no matter what!

Nakata Satoshi, who was confused, subconsciously looked at Tani Mingjun.

Facing Nakata Satoshi's confused eyes, Gu Mingjun smiled bitterly and said, "Don't say you don't understand how Huateng Group did it. I don't understand either... Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in four or five seconds is incredible. I just don't know how much it will sell for."

Nakata Satoshi calmed down now and said, "It shouldn't be cheap, but it won't be that expensive either."

Secretary Xiao Wang didn't react for a moment: "Mr. Nakata, what do you mean?"

"You can tell if you look at similar performance cars from major brands," explained Nakata. "Our Corolla series has the Corolla GR, Honda's Civic series has the Civic Type-R, and Wolfsburg Golf has the Golf GTi and GTi-R32. These cars are much more expensive than the regular versions, but as long as the regular versions exist, there is an upper limit to how expensive these high-performance versions can be."

Secretary Xiao Wang thought about it and felt that this was indeed the case.

For domestic consumers at this time, the sports cars they buy are still at the entry-level level of major brands, such as the two-door sports cars like Audi TT, BMW Z4, and Mercedes-Benz CLK. Of course, there are some, but too few. Take 2008 as an example, Ferrari sold only 212 units in China, most of which were bought by car rental companies, and only a few were actually bought by individual users.

Nakata, who has gradually adjusted his state, continued: "The reason why we did not introduce small steel cannon models to your country is also due to your national conditions. Consumers are far less interested in this type of car than entry-level sports cars. Even convertible Beetles are more attractive.

But I believe Huateng Group has considered these issues, so the reason why they launched these two models... well, Excelle God of War Edition, should be to show their level of technological progress and attract enough topics, not to sell as many cars as possible, but from the perspective of attracting topics, they have indeed succeeded. "

Secretary Xiao Wang nodded repeatedly, thinking that what Satoshi Nakata said made sense: Indeed, the Huateng Group has also understood that the sales of these two Ares versions of Excelle will not be high, but if it is to attract topics... Tsk tsk, this is the first car made by a Chinese car company that can accelerate from 4 to km/h in seconds. The previous Beauty Leopard and Cool Bao also have the nerve to call themselves sports cars?

However, he did not notice that Nakata Satoshi's brows had actually never been relaxed.

In fact, Satoshi Nakata has always been worried about one question: How much does Zhang Qihang plan to sell the God of War version of the Excelle for?

With high-performance models such as Golf GTi-R32, Focus RS, Civic Type-R, Yaris GR and Corolla GR in the market, the price of the Ares version of Excelle should be around 1.2 times that of the regular version, which is between 25 and 30 yuan. But the question is, when has Huateng Group ever played by the rules?

  If Huateng Group does not play by the rules this time and sets the price of the Ares version of Excelle very low, how should the oil-stealing otter respond? In addition, I wonder if Gu Jun is aware of this problem?

Thinking of this, Satoshi Nakata subconsciously looked at Gu Mingjun, and saw that Gu Mingjun's brows were still tightly furrowed. Obviously, he had thought about this matter much more deeply than Secretary Wang. He knew that this was not just a high-performance Excelle, but it proved to Chinese consumers that our independent brand and car-making technology level have reached world-class standards, and we can produce high-performance small steel cannon models.

Feeling the gaze of Satoshi Nakata, Gu Mingjun sighed in his heart: In the past two years, the automobile industry has become increasingly difficult to survive in. In the past few years, tying a dog to your position could ensure that the company's operations would not have problems.

He whispered to Nakata Satoshi, "Anyway, Sohu.com will broadcast the 0-100km/h acceleration test of the Ares Excelle in three days. Anyway, let's wait for three days."

Nakata Satoshi nodded: "Then wait for three days."
