Chapter 883 National Image: Next
Ahmed Husseini, the special representative of Persia to the United Nations, paid special attention to the arrival of Fang's representative, and even waited in person to greet him at the gate of the representative office to show respect.

But what surprised Ahmed Husseini was that when his estimated time was almost up, what he saw was not the familiar Lincoln City represented by Fang, but a car he had never seen before. The car slowly stopped at the gate of the Persian Representative Office to the United Nations.

If it weren't for the Chinese flag hanging on the small flagpole at the front of the car, Ahmed Husseini would have signaled the guards to drive this "unrelated vehicle" away, but since the Chinese flag was hanging on the flagpole at the front of the car...

Ahmed Husseini's heart skipped a beat: Could it be that the representative Fang changed his car?

Well……

If this is the case, then it is understandable, but which country is this car produced in?It looks very beautiful and atmospheric, but the brand logo is something I have never seen before. Could it be a small European brand?But it's unlikely, right?With Huaxia's international status and influence, it should be unlikely that they will use a certain niche car brand as their car...

Just when Ahmed Husseini was guessing which country the car represented by Fang was from, the door was opened from the inside, and Representative Fang stepped out from the right back seat energetically, tidying up a little Immediately, he smiled and extended his hand to Ahmed Husseini: "Mr. Husseini, my friend, it's a pleasure to meet you."

"Fang, I'm glad to meet you too." Ahmed Husseini also extended his hand and shook hands with Representative Fang, then curiously asked Representative Fang: "Fang, your car... "

Representative Fang is thinking about how to show his new car to Ahmed Husseini. This "show" is not a childish show off, but Representative Fang wants to take this opportunity to show Ahmed Housseini Saini showed off China's great progress in the automobile industry. Unexpectedly, Ahmed Husseini took the initiative to ask before he had opened his mouth. This is really... exactly what the representative of Hefang wanted!
Before Ahmed Husseini could finish speaking, Representative Fang asked with a smile, "What do you think of this car?"

"Very good, very atmospheric, very beautiful," Ahmed Husseini nodded repeatedly: "I have never seen this brand before. Which country is this product from?"

Representative Fang's face was full of pride: "Of course it was produced by our country."

what? ?
If representative Fang's face is proud, then Ahmed Husseini's face is shocked: "Is this car produced in your country?"

"Yes."

"Uh...is it produced by Volkswagen in your country?" Ahmed Husseini asked: "As far as I know, it seems that Volkswagen has a joint venture factory in your country, or it is Audi..."

In Ahmed Husseini's view, this very beautiful car is probably a rebadged Audi model, because in Ahmed Husseini's perception, except for world-class cars such as Volkswagen or Audi Apart from the willingness of auto manufacturers to OEM for Huaxia, Huaxia's auto companies simply cannot produce such beautiful cars.

"No, no, no," Representative Fang shook his head again and again: "Hosseini, you are wrong, this car is produced by our country's own company, this company is a 100% Chinese company, and we own 100% of this car. % of intellectual property rights and patents.”

The company that produces this car is 100% a Huaxia enterprise, and Huaxia owns 100% of the intellectual property rights and patents for this car? !
Hearing what Representative Fang said, Ahmed Husseini was shocked and speechless: How is this possible?Is this still the Huaxia in my memory, or in my impression?

Seeing Ahmed Husseini's expression, Representative Fang knew exactly what the other party was thinking. He did not deny some of China's situation before, and said frankly: "In the past, China's technology in the automobile industry was really good. It is relatively backward, but Husseini, you know that our country has been adhering to reform and opening up, insisting on technology introduction and self-reliance over the years, and has achieved great results in the field of economic construction and technology. A horizontal car is the inevitable result of success...Mr. Husseini, I'm afraid you won't believe it, this car is equipped with a 4.8-liter V8 engine with a power of nearly 300 horsepower, and this engine is also independently developed and produced by our country of."

"Pearls are here..."

Ahmed Husseini was stunned by the words of representative Fang. Although he is a diplomat, as the special affairs representative of Persia to the United Nations, Ahmed Husseini is actually very concerned about all aspects of a country. We all know what a V300 engine with a maximum power of nearly 8 horsepower means to a country's automobile industry.

Thinking of this, he hesitated for a moment, and tentatively asked Representative Fang: "Fang, I'm a little curious about your car after hearing what you said. May I have a look at your new car?"

On the one hand, Ahmed Hosseini hoped to use this method to shorten the distance between him and Representative Fang. On the other hand, he was indeed curious and fond of such a beautiful car.

"Of course no problem," Representative Fang nodded with a smile. This is what he wanted: "This car is produced by a Huaxia company called Huateng Industrial Group. This company is still well-known in the Middle East. Their Three-wheeled motorcycles are selling well in Syria..."

When the representative mentioned Huateng Industrial Group and three-wheeled motorcycles, a three-wheeled motorcycle with a cargo box appeared in Ahmed Hosseini's mind instantly, and he nodded immediately: "The company that produces A three-wheeled motorcycle company? When you say that, I have some impression..."

During this period of time, Huateng Industrial Group's three-wheeled motorcycles are based in Syria and have been running around the Middle East. Even the countries in the Middle East have seen these small, strange-looking motorcycles that are very suitable for the roads in the Middle East. The three-wheeled motorcycle in the traffic situation, Ahmed Hosseini is no exception. When he returned to his country to report on his work a few days ago, he saw this kind of weird but magical three-wheeled motorcycle on the streets of Tehran. Out of curiosity, Ahmed Husseini also deliberately asked people about this kind of three-wheeled motorcycles. He was quite surprised when he learned that the manufacturer of these three-wheeled motorcycles was a product of a Chinese company. At that time, Huaxia enterprises can already export such high-tech mechanical products to the Middle East?

But now looking at the elegant car in front of him, Ahmed Husseini was even more surprised: It is really unexpected that this Chinese company can not only produce this kind of three-wheeler that is especially suitable for the road conditions in the Middle East. Two-wheeled motorcycles can still produce such advanced cars.

For a while, Ahmed Husseini became more and more curious: this company that can produce motorcycles, what kind of cars does it produce?
"Huateng Industrial Group is still very strong in automobiles," Representative Fang said to Ahmed Husseini, "Mr. Is it a daily official car? That car is also produced by Huateng Group."

"That car is also produced by Huateng Group?" Ahmed Husseini was surprised at first, then nodded repeatedly, with a look of relief on his face: "That's not surprising at all."

Ahmed Husseini is no stranger to the daily official vehicles purchased by the Huaxia Embassy, ​​the Huaxia Representative Office to the United Nations, and the Huaxia Embassy in New York last year. According to normal logic This kind of thing doesn't seem to attract the attention of a diplomatic official of the level of Ahmed Husseini, but if the Chinese personnel catch someone as a propaganda, that's another matter.

Representative Fang continued enthusiastically: "In addition to using a 4.8-liter V8 engine as power, this car also has humanized considerations in many places, such as this seat...Come on, Husseini, you You can try it, this seat is super comfortable..."

When two people have a good chat about a certain matter, the rest will follow suit.

When talking about this matter in private, Representative Fang jokingly called it "automotive diplomacy", saying that the Fengya Teana sedan produced by Huateng Group played a significant role in promoting the XXX proposal. The matter was passed on as a good talk for a while.

------------

As governments at all levels, especially Huaxia's major embassies and consulates abroad, and Huaxia's representative offices in the United Nations have adopted Fengya Teana as the official vehicle of the main leaders, the brand image of Fengya has also been successfully established. Everyone agrees that Fengya is China's own luxury car brand, and as the first car under the Fengya brand, Teana is a real mid-to-large luxury car.

When this kind of understanding became a widespread consensus, the sales volume of Fengya Teana sedan ushered in a blowout. The sales volume increased from more than 10 in October to more than 100, and it suddenly increased to more than 300 in December. , the number of orders accumulated in the hands has exceeded 12 vehicles. Although this data is due to the addition of the peak consumption season at the end of the year, by this time, the management of the entire Huateng Industrial Group can be sure of one thing, that is, Fengya. Huaxia's own luxury car brand has gained a firm foothold in the market.

It was also at this time that Zhang Qihang's office welcomed a special guest: Tan Xuguang, who had just been appointed as the general manager of Weichai for less than half a year...

Putting a cup of tea in front of Tan Xuguang, Zhang Qihang said with a smile: "Brother Tan, I heard that after you took office, you focused on production, quality, and internal reorganization. It was very lively."

"Ha ha……"

Comrade Old Tan was somewhat embarrassed: "All the news of our factory has been heard by you, a busy man?"

Zhang Qihang smiled and said: "In the first month of taking office, you directly killed 4 deputy factory directors and the director of a kindergarten affiliated to a group. No one knows your name 'Tan Yidao' in the industrial system of Lu Province. ?”

"Hi!"

Hearing what Zhang Qihang said, Comrade Tan waved his hands again and again, and said with an embarrassed face: "Isn't this all forced, as long as there is a way, I won't be so unreasonable, but what is that bastard doing?" thing?

At that time, I was on a business trip in Guangdong Province. Because he was dissatisfied with the new incentive policy introduced by the group, that bastard announced the collective strike of the entire kindergarten staff. My God!The children of more than 1000 cadres and workers in the entire factory have nowhere to be released, which directly leads to chaos in production, and the workers are not in the mood to work..."

"Your backyard is on fire."

In Zhang Qihang's tone, there was a bit of schadenfreude when he saw his friend being unlucky and hurting his friend.

"Is it the fire in the backyard?" Comrade Tan nodded, and said, "I was in the unit when the policy was introduced, okay, you don't ask me to respond or give opinions during the policy consultation period after the policy is issued, wait for me to go You made such a move for me on a business trip, which directly caused the production of the factory to be disrupted, what does this bastard mean? What do you want? Take the emperor to order the princes?"

Speaking of this, Comrade Tan picked up the teacup and downed half a cup in one sip, and then continued: "At that time, I couldn't even take care of the work in Guangdong Province, and I came back to deal with it in a hurry. I thought that no matter what, this comrade These years can be regarded as making a lot of contributions to the stability and unity of the group, and it is enough to let him go through the internal retreat procedure, but I did not expect this bastard to dare to make a scene in the factory department..."

Hearing this, Zhang Qihang couldn't help but said: "This guy is miserable, it's fine to discuss it with you, but this guy dares to play hard with you...Your old Tan won't take this kind of trick."

"That's right, of course I don't like this!" Comrade Tan got excited and slapped the table hard: "I called a meeting of the factory leadership that night and made a decision directly in the name of the collective. To expel this bastard who dared to "take the emperor to order the princes" out of the company, retirement benefits? Don't even think about it!"

"Hehe... have fun!" Zhang Qihang nodded with a smile, and then asked: "Tell me, what trouble did you encounter when you came to find my brother this time? How much does it cost?"

Zhang Qihang knows the pace of Weichai’s development. Now Tan Xuguang has only been in office for half a year. Apart from asking himself for help, he probably has nothing else to do. However, Tan Xuguang came to ask himself for help. Zhang Qihang didn't mind: Who else knows Weichai's future development pace and prospects better than himself?

Now that he knows the direction of history, Zhang Qihang certainly doesn't mind selling Tan Xuguang a favor.

"I'm indeed here to ask you for help today, brother, but it's not to borrow money, but to repay the money along the way," Comrade Tan said, taking out a check from his bag and pushing it in front of Zhang Qihang: "When I took office, The 2000 million that you lent me, brother, I will pay you back 300 million today, and I promise to pay off the remaining 1700 million within one year... I came to you, brother, to ask you to do me a favor."
