City: I, A World Car Overlord

For Ford's little thought, Lin Fan can guess one or two things.

At the time, Toyota Motor’s granddaughter Toyota Hooko offered more than a hundred times more favourable conditions than Ford, and Lin Fan ignored her.

Ford wants to acquire Baolong's electric technology for a mere $500 million. It can no longer be described as wishful thinking.

However, the arrogant Philip was still talking about it: "Dong Lin, I don't think there is anything wrong with this letter of intent. You have to know that Ford's pickup trucks occupy 39% of the North American market.

And I am proud to tell you that the global sales of Ford’s pickup trucks have exceeded 8% for five consecutive years. With such a good momentum, we are still expanding and enriching our product line.

Although it is undeniable that Baolong electric cars have some reputation in the celestial dynasty, but in the free country, except for two sports cars, the sales of Q8 2007 and Q9 are not very good, and you dare not bring other models to the free country. Sell.

This shows what? Let me tell you, Lin Dong, because the models you develop are not liked by consumers in free countries. Under this circumstance, it is really not a wise move for you to develop and produce electric pickup trucks.

If the Baolong Group wants to expand its business in the North American market or even other parts of the world, it can only take advantage of Ford's R&D strength and brand influence to give full play to your advantages.

Therefore, today you accept our 500 million US dollars of shares and establish a joint venture company to jointly develop and produce electric pickup trucks. Only then can Baolong gain long-term development in the pickup truck market and obtain huge benefits..."

And talking about Philip's good self and talk, Lin Fan interrupted him rudely and said: "Mr. Philip, I think I must pull you back from imagination to reality.

First of all, I admit that in addition to the two sports cars you just mentioned, the sales of Q7 and Q9 in the free country are not very good, and the other models of Baolong are not sold in the free country market.

But you have to understand that the free country branch of the Powerlong Group has only been established for more than two months, and the first Baolong M2 developed in the free country leads the sales of all supercar brands in the free country.

And I believe that the Baolong pickup can also replicate the legend of the Baolong M2 and share a large piece of pickup cake. Moreover, we are also fond of the No. 1 sales of Ford F series.

Therefore, I think you should not worry about the sales of Baolong pickup trucks, but should worry about how much market share Ford F series pickup trucks will lose and how much Ford’s stock will kick in.

As for you, there is also this letter of intent for share replacement and a proposal for the establishment of a joint venture company. When I am in a good mood, I quickly disappeared before I became a shareholder. "

With that said, Lin Fan unceremoniously threw the letter of intent in front of Philip.

Philip was irritated by Lin Fan's words and rude behavior: "Dong Lin, you will regret it. When your electric pickup is not selling in the free country, you will regret what you said today."

Lin Fan spread his hands: "You don't need to worry about this, because this kind of thing won't happen."

Seeing Lin Fan's arrogant appearance and rushing gesture, Philip snorted coldly, patted the table and got up and left.

Seeing Philip's back, Simmons, who was also present at the meeting, smiled happily: "Boss, you know what, you did something that made me very relieved today."

Lin Fan didn't know why, so he let out a cry.

Simmons continued: "When my father just passed away, this guy wanted to buy my company for $300 million and take over the sports car project my father was designing and developing."

Lin Fan was taken aback for a moment: "It's really a shameless guy."

However, Lin Fan calmed down and thought about it. How does Ford say it is also a giant among auto companies, especially the 39% sales throne in the pickup market that should not be underestimated.

So he called Wang Jun over and told him what happened today.

Lin Fan is of course confident in the pickup truck model taken out of the system.

But a successful marketing plan is also the key to the hot sales of Baolong V-series pickup trucks.

This requires Wang Jun to come up with an eye-catching marketing plan.

Lin Fan is very generous in advertising for Baolong pickups this time.

As long as Wang Jun's marketing plan is excellent, he doesn't mind taking tens of millions of dollars to advertise.

Anyway, in a word, the hot sales of Baolong V series pickup trucks are bound to win this time, and there is no room for mistakes.

Wang Jun immediately patted his chest. Definitely complete the task, it seems confident.

The next work was intense and busy, and Lin Fan once again participated in the development of the V-series pickup truck.

In addition to coordinating the normal affairs of the branch company, Simmons also needs to be responsible for the transformation and personnel training of the second plant, as well as the various testing and patent applications of the V-series pickup...

Free country’s vehicle inspection standards are different from those of the Tianchao side. In addition to providing a complete vehicle catalog and final vehicle submission for review, the quality and environmental protection requirements of the complete vehicle components are also very strict.

Lin Fan is confident, made by Baolong, and is not afraid of any inspection standards.

A month and a half later, in the shocked eyes of Lao Wai, the Baolong V-series pickup truck is completing the development and test drive with a magical progress.

With the completion of the test part and the production of small batches of test cars, the calculation of various data of the Baolong V series pickup truck and the cost of the whole vehicle has also been completed at the same time.

Finally, on the test track behind the first factory, three pickup trucks of different sizes and shapes appeared in front of everyone.

The basic version of V2, powered by a single plasma engine, has a maximum output of 355KW and a torque of 430NM. Even if the rear axle is changed to high-strength steel, the body weight is only 2 tons.

It is this weight that makes the V2 accelerate to 100 kilometers in about 8 seconds.

The rear axle of high-strength steel, the rear axle with variable transmission ratio, if the drive accelerator is optional, the theoretical load can reach an astonishing 1.5 tons.

The V4 and V6 are driven by dual plasma engines. With the increase in engine power and suspension, the theoretical load has reached 2 tons and 2.5 tons, respectively.

And this is only theoretical data. Everyone knows that all theoretical truck loads are mandatory absolute safety loads.

In practical applications, these theoretical data are just numbers, and no one will load them strictly according to the theoretical data.

Otherwise, at the military parade of the Three Kingdoms, there would not be a case of a motorcycle carrying seven or eight people or even more.

For this reason, Zhang Kai Nahuo deliberately did an overload test in order to test the actual load capacity under overload conditions.

He put 5 rolls of steel required for production on the V2, each roll of 500 kg.

In this case, V2 can still travel freely.

It's only slightly eaten when I put 6 rolls on it.

At this time, the shock absorption has not yet reached the end.

I still want to load a roll, but I ran out of space.

The amazing load capacity directly stunned the foreigners like Simmons. .
