Reborn Brazil as a Plutocrat

Chapter 476 The truth

But Ivar Beard, the person involved, was a little confused. He looked at the people being escorted out and just stood there, not knowing how to react for a while.

Especially after meeting Homero Wenger's gaze, he felt even more confused.

Fang Lang on the side didn't give him much chance to react and continued walking to the third floor in the direction he pointed. When Ivar Beard saw this, he didn't think much and quickly got up and followed Fang Lang's footsteps.

In this way, the two of them, escorted by several guards, arrived at the general manager's office on the third floor smoothly.

The area of ​​this office is not small, covering nearly twenty square meters. It can be seen that Homero Wenger put a lot of effort into decorating this office.

In front of the large desk, there was also a set of European-style sofas. Fang Lang found a seat and sat down without caring, and glanced at Iva Beard, who was standing beside him, somewhat at a loss.

He smiled and said:

"Let's see what we can drink here, preferably black tea."

Ivar Beard was obviously a little confused by today's situation, and he was in a state of confusion at the moment, but he was not a fool, and he vaguely guessed that this might be an opportunity for him.

After hearing Fang Lang's instructions, he quickly began to search in the tea cabinet on the wall near the door of the office. After searching for a long time, he could not find the tea. He could only turn to Fang Lang and said:

"Boss, there is no tea here, only coffee, is that okay?"

Model research and development is not the work of one person, but the result of the joint efforts of a team.

Our relationship fell to a freezing point again, but with the general manager here, we could barely maintain it. But later, after the general manager resigned, I was directly transferred to the warehouse as a warehouse keeper."

“Of course, the R&D department of our Brazilian Porsche factory now concentrates almost all the essence of the Porsche company.

"Oh! Is that all there is?"

Fang Lang didn't care about Ivar Beard's psychological activities. He leaned on the sofa and carefully thought about whether there were any loopholes in his plan to swallow the Porsche.

"It can also be said that the company's product research and development work was indeed completed under the leadership of Mr. Porsche.

But I am just a company employee, but the other person has become a family member of the company owner. This gap in status is incomparable to me.

Ivar Beard nodded without hesitation and said:

"Yes, the Tiger tank was first developed by Mr. Porsche, but later the government did not fully adopt our design for production, but combined it with Rheinmetall's design.

However, I am not particularly clear about the specific situation, but our factory was indeed involved in the manufacturing of Tiger tanks during the war."

Fang Lang asked him to sit down, but he only dared to sit half-assed on the sofa. But as soon as he sat down, Fang Lang's first question caught him off guard.

Fang Lang didn't expect that the other party would give such an answer. He glanced at this guy who looked more like a worker than a manager with a deep look.

Hearing this, Fang Lang frowned and said dissatisfied:

Although Ivar Beard spoke very tactfully on some issues, Fang Lang still clearly understood what he meant. This made him laugh a little.

"A guy who doesn't even drink tea is really not worthy of trust.

He even thought about tricking himself into bailing out Mr. Porsche and asking him to come to Brazil Porsche to take charge of the overall situation.

This situation was somewhat beyond Fang Lang's expectation, but when he thought about it, he thought it was very normal. The design of a car does require genius inspiration, but in the final analysis, a car is a systematic project.

But he had secretly made up his mind that he would learn to drink tea in the future, otherwise he might not be able to gain the trust of his boss.

"Your former subordinate has become the general manager of the company, but you are still serving as the workshop director. Aren't you dissatisfied?"

They are fully capable of developing new models."

Fang Lang looked at Iva Beard expectantly.

Many of them were also involved in the development of the Tiger tank.

After picking up the coffee cup and taking a sip, Fang Lang looked at Ivar Beard who seemed to be breaking the jar, and felt a little funny and continued to ask:

"I heard that your Porsche factory also developed the Tiger tank during the war. Do you know this?"

This made our relationship very bad for a while. Later, it was said that Mr. Porsche gradually let me go after having a conversation with him alone. After I came to Brazil, he was the deputy general manager and I was still the workshop director.

Iva Beard touched the back of his head, thought for a while and then said:

"I think I know them quite well! After all, I have been working in the company for nearly ten years, and our production department needs to frequently communicate with the R&D department. I have dealt with everyone in the R&D department."

Of course, Fang Lang would not just accept Ivar Beard's words directly. Later, he would definitely have to find out from the side whether what the other party said was true.

It seems that the relationship between the two people has been at odds for a long time! If what Ivar Beard said is true, it can only mean that Mr. Homero Wenger is a real bastard who relied on nepotism to rise to the top.

people.

"Then do you know about the company's R&D department?"

At least this explanation seems more reasonable to Fang Lang.

He patted the sofa next to him and said:

"Sit down and chat! I heard that you used to be the company's workshop director. Why were you transferred to be a warehouse keeper?"

"Then do you think our current R&D department has the ability to independently develop new models?"

Coming from a later generation, I have a lot of future car model concepts in my mind, and just a few of them are enough to develop several very successful new models.

It wasn't until Ivar Beard brought the coffee in front of Fang Lang that Fang Lang raised his eyes and glanced at Ivar Beard who looked cautious in front of him.

After some psychological struggle, Ivar Beard thought of the strong white man who was shot down directly, and decided to tell the truth without hiding anything.

Ivar Beard nodded quickly and started to make coffee for Fang Lang. At the same time, he deeply imprinted Fang Lang's words in his mind. What do you mean by a guy who doesn't even drink tea? He is not worthy of trust. He was obviously talking about Homer.

Lo Wenger.

Fang Lang would not believe that things would be so simple. If it were so simple, Fang Lang would wonder if this was a double act between the two.

But this does not mean that the company's research and development will not work without Mr. Porsche.

Hearing Fang Lang's question, Ivar Beard hesitated a little, as if he didn't know whether the next words were appropriate. But seeing Fang Lang's eyes looking at him, he could only grit his teeth and continue:

No wonder when I tested Homero Wenger and said that someone told me that he had squeezed out the original general manager, the other party's first reaction was that Ivar Beard had falsely accused him.

Judging from the situation of the other party being taken away, it is obvious that the general manager of the company is going to be replaced. I just don’t know what happened and why such a big change happened suddenly.

Perhaps because he felt that he had said everything that should be said and should not be said, and there was nothing else to hide, Ivar Beard was no longer entangled, and admitted Fang Lang's question very frankly:

After all, if Homero Wenger hadn't had such a nepotistic relationship with Mr. Porsche, he probably wouldn't have served the Porsche family so wholeheartedly.

It is impossible that without one of them, it will be completely paralyzed. The most likely problem is that it lacks sufficient innovation capabilities, but it does not mean that it cannot design a qualified new model.

He was a little hesitant, whether it was appropriate to confess this kind of thing to his boss, or whether it would give the other party the feeling of snitching.

"It is impossible to say that there is no dissatisfaction. After all, the other party did not get to his current position because of his personal ability.

Even if you are dissatisfied in your heart, you can only accept it silently."

"But I heard that Mr. Porsche is the core of the company's research and development, right?

All the company's model research and development work is completed under the auspices of Mr. Porsche. Is that true?"

"Why don't you make yourself a cup of coffee."

Now as long as I can retain these people in the company, even if I lose the support of Porsche in Germany, the company will definitely be able to develop rapidly.

Maybe my communication method was not appropriate and made Mr. Wenger very annoyed, so..."

Later, after he married Mr. Porsche's niece and was transferred from the production department to the management department, he would often put obstacles in my work.

As for Mr. Wenger, he deliberately targeted Ivar Beard, probably in retaliation for his frequent criticism of his behavior when he first joined the company.

Ivar Beard didn't dare to really trust him, and he was still a little anxious in his heart! So many things happened at this time today, and he still can't react.

At the same time, he was able to gain the trust of Mr. Porsche and was responsible for keeping the research data on the Tiger tank, which also showed that the other party belonged to Mr. Porsche in his mind.

Forget it, let’s make a cup of coffee! Less sugar.”

It is said that Mr. Porsche has not given up the original plan and has been conducting relevant research.

He waved his hand nonchalantly and motioned for the other person to sit down. When he saw that the other person only made himself a cup of coffee, but he had nothing, he couldn't help but say:

"Mr. Wenger has been working under me when he first started working at Porsche. But he didn't take things seriously and often made mistakes. At that time, I would often criticize him.

"Because I think the company's production line is fully capable of mass-producing cars, and the production capacity should not be left idle. I have approached Mr. Wenger for coordination many times, but he has always refused.

Fang Lang was not in a hurry when he saw this, he just took the coffee to his mouth and took a sip, as if he was savoring the taste of the coffee.

These people all have rich experience in automobile design. The Beetles we currently produce and the bucket-type off-road vehicles equipped by the German army are all independently developed by our company's R&D department.

Ivar Beard was stunned when he heard this. He didn't know if he was still thinking that the boss only trusted tea drinkers, so he blurted out:

"I like tea, not coffee."

Fang Lang is very satisfied with Ivar Beard's attitude. Apparently this guy is very candid now.

Even boss, you only need to put forward your requirements for the new model and list detailed performance indicators, and then appoint one of them as the chief designer to be responsible for the overall coordination, and the R&D department can start to operate automatically."

"Ah! This"

But intuitively, Fang Lang felt that Ivar Beard should be telling the truth.

This time Ivar Beard did not answer directly, but looked up at Fang Lang, and then slowly said:

Fang Lang smiled and shook his head and continued to ask:

Fang Lang, who wanted to understand this, was still a little worried, but gradually calmed down.

What's more, he can obtain the Beetle's production authorization through negotiations with Porsche. Judging from the success of the Beetle in the market, it is really easy to support a car company.

More importantly, it was only then that Fang Lang unexpectedly discovered that the three car brands he introduced in Brazil were all future luxury models.

However, none of them is a brand that focuses on civilians. This is obviously an unreasonable industrial structure. Several companies under its own group even face direct competition and cannot form differentiation at all.

The Beetle produced by Porsche happens to be a very cheap civilian car. After I fully control the factory, I will simply let it take the Volkswagen route. Maybe in the future this company will be my most profitable car company.

uncertain.
