Rebirth 2008: I Can Make Money Reading
Vol 2 Chapter 359: Hummer EV pre-sale announced
Shencheng, Tianmashan Circuit.
It is located in Tianma Town on the edge of Sheshan, a suburb of Shencheng.
Of course, this Tianma Circuit is not as good as the official Shencheng International Circuit, but it is also the second largest circuit in Shencheng. The rental fee is relatively easy to accept for some rich second generation, and it is not illegal to race here.
If you are racing in the block, it is easy to lose your life.
On June 1st, three members of the Shanghai HCA top sports car club rented the circuit for three days for drag racing.
This club was founded by the exclusive agent of Koenigsegg brand in mainland China. Each member of the club has a family wealth of more than one billion yuan. For example, Jiang Xin, the son of Jiang Quanlong, owns four luxury cars with a price of 30 million; star Lin Zhiying , needless to say about his luxury car; Li Qi, the eldest young master of Li-Ning Group...
There are at least 4,000 invisible rich people in China. These cannot be exposed. If they are exposed, the tax bureau will come to the door. Of course, there are also reasons for some people to keep a low profile.
In fact, it is a top circle, using the car as a bridge to meet friends and network.
At three o'clock this afternoon, hundreds of people gathered at the Tianma Circuit. There were dozens of luxury cars, such as tens of millions of Bugattis, 30 million Pagani Zonda, 40 million Pagani, and 15 million Pagani. Ferrari Enzo and so on, and one big guy: the Hummer EV.
This Hummer EV is the first Hummer EV on the road in China.
It was the car that Qin Fen spent 6.66 million yuan on at the Shencheng International Auto Show, and it was also on the hot news for a while, making it a big show. Media reporters have been paying attention to the use of this car.
Today's theme is that Qin Fen will use the Hummer EV to challenge various luxury brand sports cars, and friends from all walks of life will bring paparazzi to join in the fun.
In addition, they also notified a media and two car platforms to join in the fun. It was a small test. There were a lot of cameras on the scene. There are not many competition topics like this, which can attract the attention of riders.
Since the end of the auto show, Xinghai Hummer Company notified Qin Fen to go through the formalities and pick up the car.
After Qin Fen got the car, he couldn't help taking a high-speed test drive that day.
The first test drive experience, with a cool word can't express his cool feeling, it really subverts his experience.
The car is heavy, but the steering wheel is very light, the steering is very nimble, the body is long and the wheelbase is large, but the steering radius is no different from the general compact SUV;
The speed of the sports car is fast. Sitting on it, it feels like your **** is rubbing against the ground. There is an unsafe feeling, but on the Hummer EV, the speed of 100 kilometers is 3.5 seconds, which is faster than ordinary sports cars. It feels like A flying tank is not afraid of collision at all;
Needless to say, the leather seats are perforated, heated, ventilated and massaged. Generally, the seats of luxury cars may be equipped with leather, but there are no perforations and no massage function, and the wrapping of the seats is poor.
The lumbar support, leg support and headrest of the Hummer EV seat can be adjusted. The functions are very small and can be adjusted to your favorite appearance. The seat is large and feels similar to sitting on a sofa.
Most luxury cars are basically equipped with a navigation function, but these days, cars really do not have voice navigation, or they are relatively slow. For Hummer EV, Qinfen only needs to shout "navigate to the XX club", and the car responds "OK", about half Seconds of sluggishness, and then showing the route for him to choose, reacting faster than most.
What surprised Qin Fen is that the Hummer EV has a head-up display function, which is to project important driving information such as speed and navigation on the driver's front windshield, so that the driver can look at it without looking down or turning his head. driving information.
The HUD head-up display function was originally derived from military fighter jets, mainly to enable the pilots in the fighter jets to obtain the important information they need directly through the glass cockpit cover, so as to achieve the realm of "integration of man and machine" in the ever-changing battle.
At this time, there is this head-up display function on the Hummer EV, which is a black technology.
Maybe ten years later, the domestic car of more than 200,000 yuan will be equipped with this function, but at this time, it is really not equipped on the luxury car.
The car is very big, but it is equipped with air suspension, which makes the car more stable and has good filtering effect, and the windows are double-glazed.
Due to the large size of the car, it is also equipped with a 360-degree panoramic image. When turning or reversing, you can clearly see the surrounding environment of the car when you are in the car, and you don't need to get off the car to observe. If this function is installed on the large truck, there is no need to worry about blind spots.
Coupled with the automatic parking function, for those who are new to driving, there is no need to worry about such a big car not being able to park at all. Besides, there is a four-wheel steering system. is the problem.
Needless to say, there are functions such as active parking and full-speed self-cruising system. Other luxury cars have some, but the Hummer EV is sure, and the Hummer EV has it, but other cars may not have it.
On the runway, the Hummer EV sits side by side with a Bugatti Veyron, ready to compete.
The Bugatti Veyron is just like its younger brother next to the Hummer EV, and it looks half the height of the Hummer EV.
There are dozens of sports cars on the scene, not as attractive as a big one.
It was Jiang Xin who drove the Bugatti Veyron, and the two laughed and shook hands.
"Qinfen, how do you compare? Do you want to finish a lap first?"
"Okay, as long as you finish the race first, if you lose, you Bugatti Veyron will play for me for a week."
"Don't talk about losing, you big man, I heard that the starting speed is very fast, 3.5 seconds per 100 kilometers, but no matter how fast, it is comparable to the 2.5 seconds of my car? Besides, it is much more stable in cornering than your car, Faster, your car is going through the curve fast, it's so big, it's not surprising that it doesn't roll over, I suggest you wear a helmet."
"Don't worry, my car won't roll over. Even if it rolls over, the car is strong enough, but the helmet should still be worn. The same goes for you. I don't want your old man to trouble me after an accident."
The two beckoned, and soon a paparazzi brought them two helmets.
Wearing helmets in racing cars is nothing new. These rich second-generation people are playing, but they still pay attention to safety. They are not the nouveau riche who are racing to death.
The two put on their helmets, sat in the main cab, started the car, stepped on the brake with one foot, and stepped on the accelerator with one foot.
The surrounding paparazzi pulled off fireworks, the referee waved his hand, Qin Fen and Jiang Xin Panasonic braked, and the two cars ejected and flew out.
The cheers and cheers were louder than ever.
The speed of the car was getting faster and faster, and it flew towards the end of the straight two or three hundred meters.
The starting speed is thirty or forty meters, and the two cars go hand in hand, and it is impossible to see the victory or defeat.
When approaching 50 meters, the Bugatti Veyron is still slightly better, getting faster and faster than the Hummer EV, and the Hummer EV is chasing behind like a ramming tank, wanting to crush the Bugatti Veyron.
The hundreds of onlookers shouted, this scene was too shocking.
Approaching the corner, the sports car had to slow down, throw a body, and skid the turn. Although the Hummer EV was a few beats slower, it turned smoothly and didn't tip over.
However, no matter how powerful the Hummer is, the acceleration in the second half is still inferior to that of the Bugatti Veyron.
Everyone saw that the Bugatti Veyron left the Hummer EV behind, and they felt that victory was not a problem.
However, after running half the distance, Qin Fen directly drove the Hummer EV, using the car's high chassis and exaggerated off-road performance to directly cross the lawn to take a shortcut instead of running on hard roads.
This time, no matter how fast the Bugatti Veyron runs, it can't compare to the Hummer EV taking a shortcut. The problem is that the Bugatti Veyron has a low chassis and it is impossible to take a shortcut. The strength does not allow it!
This scene made hundreds of spectators stunned!
Does this work too?
Isn't this cheating?
However, when the two competed, it was not clear which way they could not win, as long as they reached the finish line as soon as possible.
There is no doubt that in the end, the Hummer EV crossed the finish line first.
"Fuck! Cheating!"
Jiang Xin, who drove the Bugatti Veyron, saw that the Hummer EV took a shortcut and couldn't help but scolded.
After reaching the finish line, turn off the engine and walk to Qin Fen: "You are cheating! It doesn't count, you lend me this car for a week."
Qin Fen laughed: "Damn, you have the ability to drive a Bugatti Veyron to take a short cut. Just find a car on the scene. If the short cut is faster than my car, I will lose."
"It's not fair!"
"What's fair, you take tens of millions of sports cars to compare the speed with a big guy like me drifting, just kidding, hey, if you lose, you lose, and you will find out the rules next time."
"Okay, hemp, you win this game."
Jiang Xin was unhappy, but he had to admire Qin Fen's big car, the speed of the pockmark was really fast, especially when it crossed the lawn, it was too exaggerated.
His sports car had to be careful when going over the speed bump, which was very unpleasant.
No, he has to buy a Hummer EV too.
He took Qin Fen's shoulder: "Qin Fen, you can't sell this car, 8 million."
"Sell your wool, this is Muyang's signature edition. It's a global limited edition. Do you know what a limited edition is! You can't buy it with money. Do you think I'm short of this money?"
"Of course you're not short of money, well, let's not talk about money, do you have any channels to buy more cars, money is easy to say."
Qin Fen sneered, too lazy to answer such a question.
The car hasn't been listed yet, and he doesn't know Mu Yang. If the other party is a Shencheng company, there may be a way to get acquainted.
"What do you mean? Is there any way?" Jiang Xin wanted to beat him up when he saw his ghostly smile.
"You should wait for the Hummer EV to be launched. I heard that it will be launched overseas."
"It's been too long, and it's too troublesome to import. I thought you knew the insiders of Xinghai Group and could buy one."
"I don't know, do you think Mu Yang, who is engaged in scientific research, is playing with people like us?" Qin Fen told the truth.
Jiang Xin shook his head, Mu Yang had a higher level than his old man, let alone a rich second-generation like him.
With a sigh, he threw the Bugatti Veyron's car key to Qin Fen, admitting defeat.
…
The video of the game between Bugatti Veyron and Hummer EV was uploaded to online media, which quickly aroused heated discussions among netizens.
Of course, Qin Fen and Jiang Xin were coded.
This video soon spread abroad, causing foreigners to have a new level of understanding of the Hummer EV.
Especially in the beautiful countries of North America and Canada, many local tyrants who love off-road, instantly fell in love with the Hummer EV.
The Xinghai Hummer Company is preparing for pre-sale recently, and the publicity is overwhelming in North American countries.
Hummer opened direct stores in important cities, and did not cooperate with dealers or open agents.
This is Mu Yang's suggestion. He thinks that the Hummer EV will definitely sell well. The operating cost of the direct sales method will be higher, but the profit will also be higher. The terminal price can be controlled. .
Of course, this method also has drawbacks. If the sales are not good, the operating cost will be greatly increased, and the channel will be worse.
This method of Muyang is the same as that of new forces such as Weilai. For example, Weilai, they rent stores in large shopping malls with many people as operating venues. 4S stores can't buy cars at preferential prices from manufacturers.
The cost of renting a store is higher, but the publicity effect is very good. Large shopping malls directly face potential customers and can see the car on the spot without going to a remote car sales store.
Many customers who did not intend to buy a car changed their minds and planned to change their car after seeing the current car.
There are two pre-sale methods, one is on-site reservation, and the other is official website reservation. The official website recommends customers to book on-site ~www.readwn.com~ The time has passed quietly, and it will be June 10th.
The pre-sale price of the Hummer EV has been announced. There are two versions in total, which are not different from the previous announcement.
600km version: The pre-sale price is $144,800! Equivalent to 984,600 RMB.
800km version: The pre-sale price is $188,800! Equivalent to 1.2838 million RMB.
There are also some optional packages, such as car refrigerator, audio brand, number of speakers, tire size, etc., all require extra money.
When the price was announced, it caused a sensation in the auto industry and was reported by foreign media, as well as domestic media.
But it’s not surprising. After all, the material is real. Many auto industry and customers have seen the real car. Some people think that the low-spec version will reach 170,000 US dollars, and the high-spec version will reach 210,000 US dollars.
The overseas price was announced, and domestic car enthusiasts also asked Xinghai Group to set up a car factory in China, hoping to buy domestic cars.
However, Xinghai Group did not respond.
On June 15th, Muyang posted a message on Weibo: "Domestic riders, don't worry, after the overseas pre-sale on July 1, we will decide whether to build a factory in China based on the results of the pre-sale. Maybe overseas Pre-sale is not directly related to domestic pre-sale, but building a factory is not buying Chinese cabbage, I hope everyone understands.”
After this piece of information was announced, Muyang received support from fans.
There are millions of cars that ordinary people can't afford, but they want to see the rise of domestic cars to beat imported cars and joint venture cars.
If the overseas pre-sale results are not satisfactory, then Chinese people can only buy imported cars when buying Hummer EVs, and the price will definitely be much more expensive.
Maybe the domestic sales are very good, and it is certain that the domestic factory will be built again.
If the domestic sales are average, there is no need to build a factory in the country, and only import.
