Rebirth of the Evil Life

Chapter 1,399 Contra!

Schumacher was stunned! Lin Feng actually invited him to be the overseas image spokesperson of "Dragon Motors". (Read novel) It is not unusual for Schumacher to serve as an advertising spokesperson. For example, he has been signing contracts with Omega, the world's most famous watch brand, for ten years.

But the car brand is a first for Schumacher. He has never endorsed a car brand. And so far, no car brand has approached him for endorsement. This is not to say that he is not famous enough, but that the traces of Ferrari on Schumacher are too heavy. Anyone who sees Schumacher will think of Ferrari. This naturally makes other car brands shy away from Schumacher. Because they were worried that after hiring Schumacher, sales would not be very good. Moreover, Schumacher's net worth is too high.

Today, he is the highest-paid racing driver in F1. After the salary increase, his annual salary has exceeded US$40 million. If the advertising endorsement contract is too small, Schumacher will not endorse it at all. This is self-depreciation. But if the endorsement fee is too much, it is not cost-effective.

Therefore, so far, although many car brands have taken Schumacher's idea, no car brand has yet taken action. What's more, Schumacher himself tried to avoid car advertising contracts. Now, Lin Feng's invitation naturally made Schumacher a little surprised.

"Mr. Lin, are you really sure you want to invite me to be the spokesperson for your Shenlong Motors?" Schumacher asked in surprise.

Lin Feng nodded.

"Mr. Schumacher, this is a contract I drafted. Please take a look at it." Lin Feng smiled and took out a contract from the side. This was prepared by Lin Feng before he came to the banquet. For Lin Feng today, the first goal is to invite Schumacher to join the "Dragon Racing Team", but this goal is not so easy to achieve, and Lin Feng has long been prepared for failure. Inviting Schumacher to serve as the overseas spokesperson of "Dragon Motors" is Lin Feng's second goal.

Lin Zhiying is undoubtedly the best candidate for the domestic advertising spokesperson of "Dragon Racing Team". With his status as an idol, and now as a driver of the "Dragon Racing Team" and a quasi-F1 driver, his popularity in the hearts of domestic fans is unparalleled. Overseas, Jimmy Lin's reputation is too small, too small. Therefore, inviting Schumacher to serve as the overseas spokesperson of "Dragon Motors" is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate. Although the Ferrari smell on him is a bit too strong, Lin Feng firmly believes that as long as he adopts reasonable product strategies and pricing measures, he can offset the influence of Ferrari on him.

Schumacher took a look at the contract and was slightly surprised. The price of this contract is quite generous. Lin Feng gave a price of 7 million euros a year, which is the most generous advertising contract endorsed by Schumacher. Moreover, the contract is for five years once signed, which means that in the next five years, no matter what happens to the "Dragon Racing Team", Schumacher will receive a total of 35 million euros in remuneration.

Is this "Shenlong Racing Team" so rich? ——Schumacher was secretly stunned.

Although his annual salary far exceeds this amount, you must know that it can only be earned by working hard in every game, while in advertisements, you only need to place a few scenes and waste a few hours to earn a lot of money. In terms of money-making efficiency per unit of time, advertising far outperforms racing.

"Tsk, tsk, this advertising contract is really lucrative. Master, why don't you do such a cost-effective thing? Sign it quickly." Allegra was stunned when he saw the contract amount.

Schumacher thought for a moment and nodded.

"Mr. Lin, I will ask my agent to discuss it with you in detail tomorrow. If there are no other questions, I am willing to serve as the global spokesperson of Shenlong Motors." Schumacher said seriously.

"Well, I'll see you tomorrow!" Lin Feng chuckled. Although Schumacher did not agree to join the "Dragon Racing Team" today, with the help of Allegra, he earned a promise from Schumacher that was not a promise, and also won Schumacher's advertising endorsement contract, which was quite rewarding. Rich.

As for why Schumacher was offered such a high remuneration this time, firstly, he wanted to show his sincerity to Schumacher, and secondly, he also wanted to tell Schumacher that "Dragon Motors" is definitely capable, and "Dragon Racing Team" is definitely not the outside world. So incompetent as imagined.

"Okay, it's time to cut the cake. Let's go!" Seeing that the two had reached a verbal agreement, Allegra smiled and pulled the two of them to the center of the field.

Later, after Allegra made her birthday wish and cut the cake, the party ended. Lin Feng and his party will stay directly in Allegra's manor tonight. Allegra celebrates her birthday today and will officially take over Versace. Her future life will be synonymous with busyness, and she will not have much time to get together with best friends like Li Zhiyou. So Allegra is going to have a blast tonight.

As for Lin Feng, he was naturally excluded from this female team. After all, men are men, and when a woman talks, no man, no matter how close the relationship is, can get involved.

Speechless all night. The next day, when the girls were still sleeping soundly, Lin Feng took Lin Chiling (Lin Chiling did not have a good relationship with Allegra, so she was excluded from this small group) to meet Schumacher and its agent. After a short negotiation, both parties happily signed the agreement.

"Happy cooperation! Michael, I hope we can continue to cooperate in the team next year." Lin Feng said with a smile.

"Haha, happy cooperation. I hope so!" Schumacher did not take Lin Feng's words to heart. Although Allegra deceived him, within a year, the "Dragon Racing Team" wanted to improve the team's strength to Schumacher's satisfaction, which was an almost impossible task. After all, this is a technical thing, but it cannot be mixed with any falsehood.

Lin Feng smiled slightly. I don't care about Schumacher's perfunctory behavior. Some things are useless to say with words, they have to be proven with actions. After staying in Europe for another two days, Lin Feng returned to Shanghai with Li Zhiyou, Lin Zhihui, Huang Meixi, and Lin Chiling. As for Avril Lavigne and Jessica, they returned to the United States. Avril Lavigne has to manage "Second Entertainment", and Jessica has already taken over the filming of the "Fantastic Four" blockbuster filmed by the "film company" under "Second Entertainment" and is about to start filming. As a heroine, she is naturally I can’t run around anymore.

After arriving in Shanghai, after sending Li Zhiyou, Lin Zhihui and Huang Meixi home, Lin Feng flew directly to Changchun, Jilin. You know, starting from June 19 the day before yesterday, the three series of energy-saving and environmentally friendly cars owned by "Dragon Automobile" have been officially put on sale. Lin Feng really wants to know their sales. This is a bet with Little Japan, you can’t lose!

"Zheng Jie, how are the sales of the three-series sedans now?" Lin Feng asked with concern.

"Dr. Lin, the sales volume is quite good. Among the current three-series sedans: 'Nuwa' (with a displacement of less than 1.0 liters, known as 'Athena' overseas) sold a total of 3,000 units in three days, while 'Xingtian' (1.0 -14 liters, called 'Ares' overseas) sold 7,000 units, while 'Houyi' (1.4-1.6 liters, called 'Apollo' in the West) sold 12,000 units!) Zheng Jie said excitedly.

Although this sales number is not too bragging, domestically produced cars have sold a total of 22,000 units in just three days, which is already a very amazing result. Such good results can be achieved not only because low-carbon environmental protection is being advocated internationally, but more importantly because of its low price. This is undoubtedly good news for the vast number of Chinese people who are eager to own their own cars. Moreover, although its price is "energy-saving and environmentally friendly", its appearance and performance are not "energy-saving and environmentally friendly", which naturally makes many car fans happy and therefore willing to pay for it.

Of course, its publicity strategy is also very important. Lin Zhiying's endorsement can be said to have made the sales of "Dragon Car" the icing on the cake. Although Jimmy Lin has not been too popular in the past two years, unlike Jay Chou and Tao Zhe, it can be said that Lin Zhiying is almost forgotten. But this time he endorsed "Dragon Motors", and the attention he aroused was beyond imagination. No one thought that Jimmy Lin would be so popular among car fans.

But think about it, Lin Zhiying's handsome appearance, charming smile, good driving skills, and his status as a quasi F1 racing driver naturally make Jimmy Lin very popular. The "Dragon Sedan" he endorses is naturally also loved by car fans.

Lin Feng nodded, a stone hanging in his heart finally relieved. In order to promote the Shenlong sedan, Lin Feng tried every means, including hiring spokespersons, selling online, and setting up his own "Dingdang.com" repair stations in major cities across the country to use the liquidity of "Dingdang.com" (500 million yuan) consumes half of it. Although this amount of money is just a drop in the bucket for Lin Feng, from the company's perspective, it is extremely risky.

Now that I heard that the sales volume is so gratifying, my heart naturally dropped. In this way, not only can we hope to win the bet with Little Japan, but we can also help "Dragon Motors" rise. Of course, more importantly, our own "Dingdong.com" can also make a lot of money through this, and at the same time create a new era of online car sales. First of all, this is undoubtedly something worth celebrating.

"Director Lin, although car sales are good now, domestic car after-sales has always been a problem. Now the company's after-sales is handled by 'Dingdang.com'. I hope 'Dingdang.com' can be powerful enough in this regard and not hold the company back." For a long time, Chinese people have chosen foreign brand cars not only because of their popularity and advanced technology, but more importantly because of their good after-sales service. On the contrary, when selling domestic cars, everything is good. But once it's sold, if something goes wrong, it could be a problem. Its troublesome after-sales service can be said to have tortured many car buyers. Over time, Chinese people have naturally become daunted by domestic car brands.

Therefore, Zheng Jie never hopes that Shenlong Motors will make the same mistakes in this area!

"Don't worry! In this regard, 'Dingdang.com' will never be lenient. The foundation of 'Dingdang.com' is after-sales service. You can definitely rest assured about this." Lin Feng nodded. Regarding this point, Lin Feng told Liu Yingying a long time ago that she must ensure that the attitude of maintenance workers at all repair stations must be amiable and must ensure that all car owners receive the best after-sales service. You know, credibility is built up bit by bit.

The so-called word-of-mouth, word-of-mouth, isn’t just word of mouth!

Zheng Jie breathed a sigh of relief. If this problem can be solved, the future of Shenlong Motors will be half bright. The other half is its scientific research.

"Director Lin, Solo and others don't seem to want to continue working in the company, and their research is a bit nonsensical, which is not good for the company. I wonder if we should change a group of researchers. After all, forceful melons are not sweet. !" Zheng Jie reminded cautiously.

It is now known that Solo and others are also serving Lin Feng personally. For example, the "magnetic aggravation" technology is patented by Lin Feng. Many people in the company are quite critical of this. After all, he was receiving a salary from the company but helping Lin Feng personally, which naturally made many people dissatisfied. Although the topics Solo and others are actually researching at "Shenlong Automobile" and "Lin Feng Research Institute" are different, they are always suspected of being a bit of a loser. Therefore, in Zheng Jie's opinion, it is better to hire another group of people to solve the problem. This is an embarrassing thing. To avoid greater riots in the future.

Lin Feng nodded.

"I don't think it's better to hire talents from Germany. Currently, Germany and Japan are the most advanced manufacturing industries in the world. And based on the relationship between China and Japan, it is obvious that we can only choose Germany. As for whether we can hire talents I think as long as we can afford the price, there will still be many people who are willing to come. If those authoritative experts are not willing to come, we will directly recruit talents who have just graduated from the German Institute of Technology." Lin Feng thought for a while. explain.

Zheng Jie nodded. He also meant the same thing, poaching people directly from Germany. If you can't recruit technically mature talents, then you can recruit graduates. In short, in this world of gold and yuan, I don’t believe that you can’t hire people if you have money! In this way, you may not be able to buy direct technology, but you can create your own technology.

After chatting for a few more words, Lin Feng said goodbye to Zheng Jie and then made an appointment with Solo and others.

"Solo, in a few days, when the company invites talents from Germany, you can leave the company and concentrate on research at my 'Lin Feng Research Institute'. By the way, the current research on 'magnetic aggravation' technology is What's going on?" Lin Feng asked.

"According to the notes, the progress is going smoothly, but we always feel that there is something wrong in the middle, and we are intensifying our research." Zoro said with a frown.

"It's okay, research, research, always take your time, don't rush. By the way, what notes? Is this 'magnetic emphasis' technology designed based on whose notes? Are there any copyright issues?" Lin Feng asked nervously.

The "magnetic weighting" technology is a technology that Lin Feng particularly relies on. If there are any copyright issues, it will be troublesome.

"Well, boss, this is based on the notes of one of our great seniors. However, this senior has passed away, so there is no copyright issue. Boss, please rest assured." Solo said with admiration.

Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief.

"By the way, who is this senior?" Lin Feng asked curiously.

"Well, this senior is one of our seniors at Harvard. But he's not very famous, and the outside world doesn't know about it." Solo hesitated to speak.

Lin Feng is now a mature person, so he can naturally see at a glance that Solo is hesitant to speak, but Lin Feng doesn't like to get to the bottom of things like this. After all, everyone has their own secrets, as long as they study them carefully.

"Okay, have you chosen the address of the research institute in New York? Last time you said you picked the address yourself. If you choose it, give it to me and I will help you build the research institute quickly." Lin Feng asked.

"Boss, this is the address we want." Solo handed Lin Feng a piece of paper with an address written on it.

Lin Feng looked at it and accepted it.

"Okay, I'll leave first. Remember to call my secretary if you have any requests. We are open 24 hours a day." Lin Feng gave the final instruction.

"I got it, boss!" Solo and others respectfully sent Lin Feng off.

After Lin Feng left.

"Solo, why didn't you tell your boss? Don't you want to rehabilitate this senior?" shouted one of Solo's classmates.

"Mitch, the outside world has always had an unfair view of him. How do we know that the boss will agree with him? What if the boss is like the common people outside?" Solo asked.

Mickey was speechless for a while.

"Okay, let's not talk about this matter. Let's overcome the 'magnetic aggravation' technology quickly. The magnetic field of the ball inside is always unstable. If this is not solved, it will cause big trouble." Suo Luo ordered.

Everyone nodded, then put aside their disputes and continued to devote themselves to their research.

At this time, in Japan.

"Mr. Toyota, now the three series of 'Shenlong Sedan' have been launched. 'Nuwa', 'Xingtian', and 'Houyi' have all achieved good sales. This is beyond our expectations! Also, do you know why their cars are so popular?" Can you drive that fast?" Honda Hiroshi frowned.

"Yes, it stands to reason that such an energy-saving and environmentally friendly car with such a small displacement cannot run so fast." Mitsubishi Heavy Industries President Kazuo Tsukuda looked solemn.

Originally, they were not worried about Shenlong Automobile at all. This kind of energy-saving and environmentally friendly car cannot be compared with Japanese cars at all, and because it is too "energy-saving and environmentally friendly" in nature, it will definitely lose a lot of points in terms of car performance that car fans are most concerned about.

But the result is that after the car was launched, after evaluation, due to its small displacement, the instant acceleration was indeed inferior to those of conventional cars, but the top speed was not much inferior, which undoubtedly exceeded the expectations of all car manufacturers. And it is precisely because of its outstanding top speed and its extremely low price advantage that it has achieved such good results. Japanese car manufacturers are naturally deeply worried about this result.

"Don't worry, my people have already entered the Shenlong Automobile, and there will be a secret message in return soon. Don't worry!" Tatsuro Toyoda said confidently.

If "Dragon Automobile" really has any amazing technology this time, then they will definitely plagiarize it. Japan's automobile industry must definitely lead the world, but China must not allow its heavy industry to develop.

"Well, Mr. Toyota, this time is related to the reputation of our entire Japanese automobile industry. If you have any difficulties, just tell us. This time we work together to defeat Lin Feng and Shenlong Motors, as well as the hopes of China's automobile manufacturing industry. !" Honda Hiroshi said with a fist.

"Yes, it defeated the hope of China's automobile manufacturing industry in one fell swoop!" Mitsubishi Heavy Industries President Kazuo Tsukuda also stood up.

"Well, don't worry, we will definitely not fail this time!" Tatsuro Toyoda said firmly.

At this time, Lin Feng had already returned to Shanghai on his own special plane. Looking at the time, it was already night. After thinking about it, I didn’t contact Wu Zhaopu to find out how the ‘nostalgia game’ was progressing. I’d rather wait until tomorrow to discuss this matter. For now, it’s better to go home. It's been a long time since I've eaten home food, but Lin Feng's mouth is watering just thinking about it.

"Hey, little Youxi, come on, call daddy!" As soon as Lin Feng returned home, he saw everyone teasing Lin Youxi. Seeing Lin Youxi, who was over one year old, learning to talk and toddle, Lin Feng felt warm in his heart and went over to hug Lin Youxi.

"Dad!" Lin Youxi suddenly shouted.

Lin Feng was shocked! Looking at the lovely Lin Youxi, he looked surprised.

"What did I hear just now?" Lin Feng shouted with incredible surprise.

"Idiot, of course Xiao Youxi called you daddy!" Lin Zhizhi rolled his eyes at Lin Feng with disdain.

"Little Youxi, call me daddy again." Lin Feng hugged Lin Youxi excitedly.

"Dad!" Lin Youxi shouted more fluently this time.

"Haha, my little Youxi can call me daddy now!" Lin Feng hugged Lin Youxi and kept spinning in circles.

You know, although Lin Feng looks 24 years old at the moment, he is actually 34 years old (30 years old before his rebirth, 4 years after his rebirth). Although he is not that old in his heart, he still feels that he is still He is very young, but he still has a very strange feeling about being a father. At this moment, hearing Lin Youxi call him daddy, a feeling of happiness instantly filled my heart.

At this moment, Lin Feng felt far happier than making billions of dollars.

"Okay, you are such an adult and you still act like a child. If your employees see this, you will be surprised if they don't laugh at you!" Father Lin came over and criticized him angrily.

At this moment, for Lin Feng, no criticism could affect his good mood. Therefore, he didn't care about Father Lin's criticism.

"Okay, let's eat quickly. If we continue to make trouble, the food will be cold." Mother Lin also came over.

"Okay, little Youxi, let's eat. Can daddy feed you today?" Lin Feng hugged Lin Youxi lovingly and couldn't bear to let go.

"You love children so much, why not have a few more. This way we can have more grandchildren!" Mother Lin asked expectantly.

The girls naturally blushed.

"Okay, no problem, we'll start tonight." Lin Feng was happy at the moment and immediately nodded in agreement. But how could he say this so loudly? It naturally made Li Zhiyou and Huang Meixi blush even more, right down to their ears. However, the two of them were happy in their hearts. You know, they have been looking forward to this for a long time.

That night was naturally a program not suitable for children. After a night of romance, Lin Feng came to the company in high spirits the next day.

"Boss, do you know what game copyright we got?" Wu Zhaopu mysteriously took out a very familiar game cartridge - "Contra"!
