The Pioneer of the Rebirth Era
Chapter 1146 Auction Part 1
Yang Dongxu didn't reply to Matthew immediately, because there are too many things involved in this proposal report, especially the funding for research and development.
Don't look at it as just a battery problem, but it's just such a battery. The research and development expenses invested may be higher than the current research and development expenses that BMW invests in corporate engines.
But what I have to say is that this proposal is correct. If BMW can really solve the battery aging and battery life problems of gasoline-electric hybrid vehicles, it will indeed have a trump card that can expand and even seize the market.
Unlike Chinese people's car buying habits, many foreigners can't understand the car buying habits of Chinese people. After all, it is common for people all over the world to slap a swollen face and pretend to be fat for the sake of face. But there are few in the world who can do as extreme as the Chinese people.
In other words, there are more people who pay attention to practicality in foreign countries. After considering the economic pressure, they will choose cars that they can afford.
But in Huaxia, when someone in your village buys an Audi or a Mercedes-Benz, even if they have no money in their pockets. Everyone is also rushing to luxury cars, not to mention domestic cars, joint venture cars are not good.
So in the true sense, whether it is a gasoline-electric hybrid vehicle or a pure electric vehicle. In fact, there are more markets abroad than at home. There are two reasons for this phenomenon.
One is the environmental protection issues in the European Union, especially in Germany and Switzerland. People say that environmental protection is true, and everything is in line with environmental protection. Therefore, for gasoline-electric hybrid vehicles with lower emissions, as long as the battery problem is solved, even if the battery life problem cannot be solved, they can bear it for the sake of environmental protection.
As for the United States, although it talks about environmental protection, Europe is really environmentally friendly, and the United States is only talking about environmental protection. Because this country is the most wasteful and least environmentally friendly in the world. Therefore, the real reason why gasoline-electric hybrid vehicles can open up the US market is not environmental protection but saving.
Yankees like high-horsepower cars. Yes, men are either Harleys or Hummers. But the premise of playing high-powered cars is that you have money. Americans are rich, but only a small part of them are rich. Most of them are actually ordinary office workers and salary earners.
So for most ordinary families, they are actually willing to drive some light cars in order to save money. This is also the main reason why Japanese cars can occupy the US auto market. Economic saving is an issue that almost every ordinary family will consider when choosing a car.
Now that the success of Japanese cars has proved the correctness of this point, once the gasoline-electric hybrid car is successfully developed. Naturally, it can easily break the barriers established by the European and American markets for BMW cars, thereby occupying the market share of European and American cars.
In fact, although BMW is a luxury car in China, the situation abroad is actually a bit embarrassing. For example, compared with Volkswagen and BMW in Germany, Masati has no advantage at all, or even a disadvantage.
Let's take the route of Japan's energy-saving and environmentally friendly light vehicles. Japan is going to the extreme in this regard, and it is not something you can chase after you want to. Maserati is most proud of sports cars, neither Porsche nor Ferrari can compare.
In short, in all aspects, BMW Motor Company really has nothing special to show for it. The only thing worthy of praise is that the official cooperative relationship with Huaxia has always been good, so it occupies the booming market of Huaxia and can make a lot of money every year.
Therefore, with the development step by step, there is almost no hope of surpassing other international auto giants. Therefore, corner overtaking is the key to victory. This is also the reason why the country continues to promote the development of new energy vehicles in the next few years.
Compared with these foreign auto industries, the domestic auto industry started too late. If you don't want to be an auto parts processor for a lifetime and work for others, then you have to overtake on a curve, otherwise God knows when you will catch up with them. After all, while you are developing, people are not lying still, they are also developing.
In fact, the Spencer family is only the best solution among Yang Dongxu's partners. In addition to the influence of this family in Europe and the United States, the automobile technology in the UK is also one of the important factors to measure whether to cooperate.
Don't look at the fact that the UK sells all the car brands that are almost available, but this country has excellent genes for car research and development.
Some small car brands may not be looked down upon, but their self-developed engine technology, gearbox technology, or other parts of the car often produce some eye-catching products.
Many people are very puzzled why Volkswagen and German BMW won such a big brand as Rolls-Royce Bentley. Sometimes it will spend huge sums of money to acquire a small, seemingly inconspicuous British car research and development company.
The car company itself is naturally not taken seriously by Volkswagen and German BMW, but the technology that makes people shine. Not only they want it, Japanese car dealers, American car dealers, and even car dealers all over the world are very greedy, it is a hot commodity.
Therefore, after cooperating with the Spencer family, once some technological progress in this area is discovered. When Yang Dongxu wants to win, he undoubtedly has the advantage.
In a manor in the northern suburbs of London. Yang Dongxu and Toy who got out of the car gave a big hug.
It is said that the manor is actually a big farm, but rich people live in the farm, and this farm is called the manor, which is called life with sentimentality.
Farms are called farms only when poor people farm. Of course, farmers who can afford farms are not poor. It's just that compared with those elites in big cities, the founders of the company obviously don't look so glamorous on the surface.
"You should have informed me before you came, and I will pick you up at the airport as soon as possible. Instead of hearing from others that you have come to London." Toy said with a reproachful tone.
Because of Ivan's funeral, the two people who were originally friends undoubtedly took another step forward in their concern. Although it has not reached the point where life and death can be entrusted, it has surpassed ordinary friends.
"I thought you were flying in the United States. I didn't know you came to the UK. After all, this place is not suitable for this season, whether it is food or climate." Yang Dongxu said half-jokingly.
But this is also true, he did not expect Toy to be in the UK before coming to the UK. After all, although two people occasionally talk on the phone, if the men are close to each other, they will often drink and have sex together. There are really not many phone calls separating the two places, and there are not so many feelings that need to be poured out on the phone, everything is in the wine.
"No one knows what the British are thinking. If I have to choose this time to hold the auction, I can only come and take a look." Toy shrugged helplessly.
The auction that Toy said is the auction of David David's superstar auction house, one of the top ten auction houses in the world. The holding of David's auction has attracted the attention of rich people from all over the world.
What's more, some of Toy's things are stored in David's Auction House, and this time they are going to be auctioned off together. So I had to come to the UK myself. I just didn't expect that Yang Dongxu happened to be in London too.
"Are there any collections you like?" Yang Dongxu asked with a smile.
Buy antiques, or exchange them with others, or even sell antiques that you don't like very much. It is one of the things that rich people often do. Of course, there are also collectors who belong to Pixiu.
But Toy obviously doesn't belong to this category, he also plays collectibles. But he has his own clear behavior preferences. For example, he likes things from the European Renaissance, and feels that the art of that time was avant-garde and bold. So I often use some collections in my hands to exchange these things back.
"There is a string of ruby necklaces from the French royal family. It is said that it belongs to Marie Antoinette. I am more interested." Toy said a little excitedly. And introduce the origin of this necklace to Yang Dongxu.
Speaking of Marie Antoinette, many people may be unfamiliar, but if it is about Louis XVI. Everyone must be very familiar with it. Even if you don't know what this guy does, you have heard of this name.
And Marie Antoinette was the wife of Louis XVI. Three kings were executed in European history. Louis XVI was one of them. He was executed during the French Revolution.
Marie Antoine was also executed at that time. But in addition to being the wife of Louis XVI, Marie also had a nickname - a petite but perfectly healthy Grand Duchess.
There is obviously a very big cognitive difference between women in power in Europe, America and Asia. Although they are all the subjects of the world, they have revolved around patriarchy from ancient times to the present.
But from time to time one or two amazing women appear, which will make many men yearn for and be inexplicably excited.
While many European and American men respect powerful women, they also seem to have an inexplicable urge to bow down. Therefore, things related to women such as SLRs can often be sold at very high prices.
So she was no longer surprised by the obvious little excitement on Troy's face. Perhaps every man has a woman's side in his heart, and it is not necessarily the desire to be conquered by a powerful woman.
In fact, if you were a Chinese person, you might not be so interested in this thing. Because Mary was executed, according to the concept of Chinese people, this is an ominous thing.
In the face of ominous things, it is natural to stay away from them. But Europeans and Americans don't seem to have this concept. They feel that they can suppress this ominousness and turn it into their own lucky thing.
So when they find something that will bring them trouble, Chinese people will choose to bypass it. And the Europeans and Americans will think about giving him two punches in the past.
Therefore, after a few years, the Internet began to develop, and it is easy to explain why you can always see some videos of foreigners committing suicide. They are not born adventurous, but as if they were born with ADHD, they always want to tease some dangers that would otherwise not happen.
Then I will even buy Karma after teasing out a big trouble that I can't solve!
If you tease something cool but dangerous, start taking photos and videos to show that you are a brave man.
