My Years As a Car Dealer

Chapter 0227: Don't take us for fools, you boy

After FAW Toyota successfully took down the crown, none of the luxury models under the Toyota Niu Tau brand could be beaten. The anxious Japanese finally put the fifth-generation Asian Dragon made by the Japanese brand, the Bald Eagle Country, in 2019. In March, it was introduced into China.

The Asian Dragon, who is in the same situation as the Toyota Runner, is not recorded in the expert-level used car sales skills of car dealers. Of course Zhang Chen doesn't know it.

Going to the main driver's door, Zhang Chen found that as a business luxury B-class car, in addition to its flamboyant appearance, the overall size and wheelbase of the Asian Dragon are basically the same as those of the Lexus ES, because they come from the same platform.

The length, width and height reach 497518501450mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2870mm.

When the main driver's door is opened, Asia Dragon adopts a two-color design on the interior, using a lot of soft materials to cover and wrap, plus the mutual embellishment of wood grain trim and chrome trim, it makes its interior grade texture improved a lot. It highlights the prudent and luxurious business atmosphere.

The most striking thing is the alternative shape of the central control. Different from the central control of the Camry and other models, the central control is biased towards the main driver. The Asia Dragon has chosen a symmetrical long and narrow shape. Compared with the current trend of inclined design of the central control, the operation of the Asia Dragon The experience is very unfriendly to the owner.

The 9-inch multimedia touch screen is covered with chrome buttons on both sides, and the layering is highlighted by the combination of various materials and the use of colors, which is a bit similar to the feeling of Lexus es.

The multi-function steering wheel is wrapped in leather, the instrument panel has traditional pointer design on both sides, the center is equipped with a 7-inch hud head-up display, and the rear of the gear is the button for changing the driving mode and the electronic handbrake.

Zhang Chen sat on the main driver's leather seat and shook his body. He felt that the seat was very comfortable and the space was good.

I have to admire the Japanese OEMs. Under the same level and wheelbase, the Japanese cars can always create the most space.

It is spacious, luxurious and comfortable, and has a strong technological texture. At least in terms of interior and exterior, Zhang Chen believes that the Asia Dragon is very suitable as a business vehicle.

In terms of power, Asia Dragon now has two versions of fuel and hybrid, with three driving modes: energy saving mode, normal mode and sports mode.

The Asian Dragon brought by the mouse is the 2019 2.5ltouring Premium Edition.

Equipped with a 2.5l self-priming engine, coupled with the combination of an 8at gearbox, it can burst out the power of 209ps and 250nm.

The hybrid version is even worse. In addition to being more powerful, the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is only about 4.3 liters. It can travel 1,200 kilometers on full fuel. It is a super model tailored for Didi’s business.

The consistent impression of Yue-series cars to Huaxia people is that they are fuel-efficient and durable, with low maintenance costs, and models with hundreds of thousands of kilometers of mileage that have not been driven by the engine are very popular.

On the other hand, the skin is thin and unsafe, the technology is old and the configuration is low, the chassis is loose and there is no driving pleasure at all. 'Foot softness'.

According to the information given by the car dealer system, Asia Dragon completely subverted Zhang Chen's view of Japanese cars.

In 2018, the Asian Dragon received the highest safety rating from the Bald Eagle National Highway Safety Insurance Association, so it should be trusted in terms of safety. New 81 Chinese website updates the fastest computer: https://

In terms of technical configuration, in addition to tire pressure monitoring, child seats, abs anti-lock braking, parallel assist, lane departure warning system, adaptive cruise, engine start-stop, automatic parking, hill assist and other functions commonly equipped in luxury cars , also comes with features such as a rear cross-traffic emergency braking system, a panoramic parking camera with alert function and "smart clearance sonar".

As well as Toyota's entune3.0plus infotainment system, remote control connection technology, navigation applications, wireless smartphone chargers and other system technologies.

At the same time, Amazon Alexa has also become part of the car's remote connection system.

In order to create a more advanced driving texture, another highlight of Asia Dragon is the addition of the avs adaptive variable suspension system.

No matter sitting in the front row or the rear row, all passengers will not sway left or right when driving intensely, which can effectively improve ride comfort and driving stability.

The steering force is moderate, and even when switched to Sport mode, the steering force is not too heavy.

The directivity is very precise, the control feeling when cornering is strong and it is easy to route the line, and the action of the entire body is more like a whole.

The performance of the entire chassis is very solid, especially when cornering, the inclination of the whole vehicle is very small, which can give the owner a strong confidence, and it is not inferior to the luxury brands of the same level.

In Zhang Chen's view, the overall performance of the Asian Dragon is quite good. There are bright spots in terms of fuel economy, durability and configuration. It is more like a combination of the advantages of Japanese and American cars.

Of course, Asian dragons are not perfect, there are common faults and shortcomings.

For example, there is a sense of frustration at low speed, odor, abnormal noise, shock absorber noise, and poor sound insulation. The internal configuration is a bit backward. The vehicle has only one USB interface, and the resolution of the central control screen in the car is low and does not match the positioning of the car.

As long as these faults can be accepted, then Asia Dragon is the perfect goddess in the hearts of car owners.

"Old Wang, you have found a great deal." The mouse was a little excited, spitting up to Wang Keqiang, "I just picked up a fine new car yesterday, and the mileage is only 100 kilometers..."

"New car? The mileage is 100 kilometers?" Zhang Chen, who was sitting in the main driver's heart, groaned inexplicably. He looked at the LCD dashboard, and the mileage on it really showed the data that the mouse said.

Zhang Chen is a little confused. According to the mouse, this is a new car. How could it be in the hands of the mouse and become a used car business?

Wang Keqiang was also full of disbelief, and asked curiously, "How much?"

"Give you Pharaoh's face, wipe off the fraction, and give it 240,000." The mouse happily said the price.

Zhang Chen now has a clear picture of the configuration price of the Asia Dragon. According to the actual situation of the new car, the price of the mouse is really not expensive, and even erasing a fraction of it is enough to give Wang Keqiang face.

"Okay, let Zhang Chen test it, and I'll pay immediately if there is nothing wrong." Zhang Yuxiang seemed to be satisfied with the price and the condition of the car.

"Okay." Zhang Chen got out of the car, slightly distanced himself from Asia Dragon, and immediately activated his master-level used car appraisal skills.

With a red light streaking from the front of the Asian Dragon to the rear of the car, Zhang Chen's mind came up with the overall condition of the car.

The result is that this Asian Dragon has complete procedures and no clock adjustment. It is indeed a new car with a mileage of only 100 kilometers, and there are no blisters and fires or accidents. There are no issues with the gearbox, etc.

The only problem is that there are collisions on the paint surface of the rear of the car, but the area is small and the repair is perfect. It is impossible to see it with the human eye without careful testing with equipment such as a paint film meter.

The answer given by the master-level used car appraisal skills is that there is a high probability of a slight collision during transportation or when the car is moved, but it is only a problem of the cover and does not affect the normal use of the vehicle. The price given by the appraisal skills is two. Thirteen thousand. starter

Zhang Chen understands that the value preservation rate of series cars has always been high, and now it is difficult to find a car. Even if it is a few thousand dollars more expensive and a little repaired, Zhang Chen thinks that Zhang Yuxiang is still quite cost-effective.

But I can't tell you everything now. Zhang Chen pretended to go through the appraisal process of Zhenghong Used Car Inspection Center. When inspecting the paint surface of the sheet metal at the rear, he paid special attention to it, and he really couldn't see any faults. , so he didn't tell Zhang Yuxiang.

It's not that Zhang Chen doesn't want to say it, but he feels that now is not the time.

"There's nothing wrong with this car, it's the same as what the mouse said." Zhang Chen smiled and let Zhang Yuxiang pay the money with confidence.

"Thank you, thank you." Zhang Yuxiang was very satisfied and immediately said that he would transfer the money immediately.

Zhang Yuxiang and Mice went to go through the formalities together, and watching Yalong leave the Four Seas Car Shop, Zhang Chen suddenly said to Wang Keqiang: "Uncle Wang, I have an idea, now that the car source is so hard to find, can we let a car bug like the mouse give me the We provide car sources, even if you pay more for tea!"

"That's a good idea." Wang Keqiang nodded in admiration for Zhang Chen's idea. For a long time, more than 90% of the car sources of Sihai Auto Depot are supplied by the group headquarters, but Wang Keqiang also has business dealings with car bugs like rats, rats and the others. Helped to contact the car source, Wang Keqiang gave them tea money, and the two sides cooperated very well.

However, Wang Keqiang knows the temperament of the car bugs too well. They only have money in their eyes. The sources of cars they find are very complicated. What kind of cars are soaked in water, fire cars, back door cars, mortgage cars, rolling cars, etc. Buyers are a little inattentive. will be deceived and pitted,

Therefore, Wang Keqiang is very worried that the mouse will do the same for himself. When he is deceived, the loss of money will be a small matter, but it will affect the credibility of the four seas.

Zhang Chen nodded, Wang Keqiang's concerns were right, from the situation of the mice selling cars just now, you can understand what kind of people the car bugs are, and you can't help but be wary of them.

"There is a lack of car sources now, so we can only do it." As the store manager of the Four Seas Motor Co., Ltd., Wang Keqiang agreed with Zhang Chen's suggestion, "Tomorrow I will find a mouse to discuss this matter in detail."

Early the next morning, Wang Keqiang called the rat to the Four Seas Motor Co., Ltd.

After Zhang Chen, Wang Keqiang and the mouse sat together in the office, Wang Keqiang didn't write any ink, and immediately said to the point that he wanted the mouse to help find the car source, and reassured the mouse that he had enough tea and would not treat him badly.

"Okay." The mouse was of course happy when a business came to the door. He believed in Wang Keqiang's reputation, and immediately agreed, just waiting to discuss how the tea money would be given.

Zhang Chen didn't speak, but Wang Keqiang came forward to pay the mouse: "The money for tea is easy to talk about, but you have to ensure the quality of the car source, and you can't fool us."

"Of course, as far as our relationship is concerned, who's with whom? I can't fool anyone, but I can't fool you, Old Wang." The mouse slapped Yue Hung's chest in the sky.

Wang Keqiang, who was flattering the mouse, was very comfortable. He stretched out the palm of his right hand and faced the mouse: "I'll give you this number for tea."

"No, no, too few." The mouse made a gesture, and at the same time his little head shook like a rattle, firmly rejecting, "Not enough to declare."

"You're content, you kid, tell me, which car dealership has the high tea I gave?" Wang Ke was furious, knowing that this kid was taking the opportunity to drive up the price, and his heart was too dark.

"This time and the other." Now Wang Keqiang is begging for himself, and the mouse is overjoyed and hangs up the book bag and drags the text, "There are many car dealers in the market looking for me, I am looking at your old Wang's face, and I agree. The one who cooperates with your four-sea auto dealer is like Lai Wu, and I will not dump him."

The mouse and Wang Keqiang were fighting over the money for the tea, with a blushing neck and a thick neck, and neither of them would give in.

In the end, Wang Keqiang's old face was ashen. He was angered by the rat's sky-high asking price, and shouted at him: "You can't be too dark, you earn all the profits, let's drink the northwest wind?"

"Pharaoh, you are wrong about this, this Zhang Chen in your shop is too good, a Zhenghong used car inspection center is doing good business and seems to be stealing money, that wild bar is also full every day, I was yesterday I went to drink at five o'clock, and there was no seat. I stood there for half an hour, and I was exhausted. You are all so rich, do you still care about this tea?" The mouse looked at Zhang Chen, who had not spoken, his face full The envy, jealousy and hatred of the car, "Furthermore, I can guarantee that the car is as big as the Asian Dragon yesterday, the procedures and the condition of the car are very rough, and it is all a work of water."

"Asian Dragon?" Zhang Chen stared at the mouse, unhappy, "Rat, don't take us for fools~www.readwn.com~ What happened to the Asian dragon, when we don't know? We didn't expose you, no It means we didn't see it."

"Ah, did you see it yesterday?" The mouse exclaimed for a while, and his expression with his mouth wide open and his eyes widened was like he was not asking himself.

Zhang Chen looked at the mouse coldly, and the mouse has long since lost the arrogance and pride that he had when negotiating with Wang Keqiang just now.

Why is the rat wilted?

What kind of riddle?

Wang Keqiang asked Zhang Chen curiously, "What's going on?"

"Yesterday's Asia Dragon was a 'front-mounted version'." Zhang Chen explained to Wang Keqiang, "I think it's just a problem with the rear of the car, the car is in good condition, and the price is similar, so I didn't expose the rat."

"Zhang Chen, oh no, Brother Zhang, I really didn't know that the Asia Dragon had sheet metal on the rear." The mouse looked aggrieved, as if he had been wronged, and kept trying to prove his innocence.

"Yo, the mouse can already predict the prophet?" Zhang Chen's mouth smiled with sarcasm, "I just told Uncle Wang that there was something wrong, when did I say sheet metal?"

"Ah?" The mouse screamed in surprise, knowing that he had fallen into a pit.

The mouse glanced at Zhang Chen sadly, feeling that he was too difficult to deal with, and he got caught if he was not careful.

"Okay, okay, okay, I admit it." The rat knew that the combination of Zhang Chen and Wang Keqiang could not be beaten, so he had to surrender and admit defeat, "Just at the price of Lao Wang."
