Chapter 1081: Reverse thinking, price increase by 50%! ! ! ! !
When it comes to following a trend, as long as someone takes the lead, others will follow suit.
Many people posted comments one after another.
[Wow, this French radio host of "Daily Auto" is so brave, he actually confronted someone when he was introducing a car. ]
【Foreigners still dare to speak the truth! Awesome! 】
[Look at our Chinese car reviewers, no one said anything. ]
[Haha, all the car reviewers in China are paid to review cars. They are all silent now, and I don’t know how much BYT paid them for PR! ]
[Foreigners are objective and upright! Does it matter if the car goes sideways or sideways? The most important thing about the car is just mentioned briefly. Useless configurations are mentioned in great detail. Chinese car companies are really rotten! ]
[Mr. Li of BYD Group should really learn from Linear Generation Group. When they release IC5, they talk about data and the real performance of the car. No one would introduce the car in the way of monkeys in a circus.]
......
South Korea, Linear Generation Group Building.
Lu Shengli, chairman of the Linear Generation Group, and a group of senior executives of the Linear Generation Group sat in front of the big screen.
Watching the BYD Group press conference held at the Kyoto Bird's Nest Stadium.
When Lu Shengli saw the Upward-Looking V7 debut, he pointed at the TV screen and said, "Haha, BYD has run out of ideas. Apart from the Upward-Looking V8's little tricks of moving sideways and turning around on the spot, they don't have any newer technology. I thought they had new technology to release, but it turns out to be new wine in old bottles."
Lu Shengli is very familiar with the process of car companies' press conferences.
Almost all car companies will show off their unique skills when their cars are launched.
So that everyone knows how powerful this car is.
The way Yangshi V7 debuted today was exactly the same as when Yangshi V8 was launched.
Lu Shengli knew that BYT Group would definitely not be able to come up with new technologies.
So, he showed a relieved expression.
The sales director of Xiandai Group said to Lu Shengli, "President, just after BYD Group announced the Yangshi V7, our Xiandai IC5 received more than 100 orders in the global market."
Lu Shengli narrowed his eyes and nodded. "It seems that consumers all over the world are paying attention to BYD Group's press conference today. But their press conference is lackluster and has no new ideas."
The director of the PR department of Xiandai Group said, "The president is right. Looking up at the V7, it looks ordinary and has no special features. It can't shake the position of our Xiandai IC5 at all."
Lu Shengli held his chin with one hand, thought for a moment and said.
"Hey, you can't be so arbitrary. You can't easily think that you have won. Have you forgotten the failure of Sanxin Mobile a while ago?"
The incident of Sanxin mobile phone versus Huawei NEW1 mobile phone a few days ago is still fresh in everyone’s mind.
Afterwards, Xiandai Group also held an internal meeting to discuss the incident.
Everyone agreed that although Sanxin Group lost to Huawei Technology in terms of product strength.
But that's not the main reason.
The most important thing is that Sanxin Group’s navy is not strong enough.
The people they invited are all random people. They are simply incapable of confusing right and wrong and of gaining an advantage in public opinion.
In the war of public opinion, of course we need to invite some heavyweight guests!
You must be the leading figure in the industry!
After Lu Shengli's words were spoken, all the senior executives of the Line Generation Group were silent.
Their chairman is one of the top ten chaebols in South Korea.
While other chaebols act erratically, Lu Shengli is shrewd and calculating.
He has always been cautious in his approach.
But in the process of seeking stability, he was extremely fierce.
Often in silence, he delivers a fatal blow to his opponent.
Sure enough, Lu Shengli looked at the posts and comments from netizens on the TV screen and spoke.
"Sales Department, spread the word immediately. Due to the rise in international raw material prices, the price of IC5 produced by Linear Group in China will increase by 50% tomorrow!"
When Lu Shengli said this, all the senior executives of the group were shocked.
You know, the IC5 of Xiandai Group is a luxury car that costs 100 million Chinese yuan in China!
"President...are we only raising prices in China? What about other countries?"
"President, isn't a 50% increase too much? 50 Chinese Yuan is not a small amount in China."
"President, with your price increase, our IC5 will definitely be more expensive than BYD's V7. This..."
Lu Shengli looked at everyone's doubtful eyes, smiled coldly and explained.
"Haha, the fact that you can ask these questions shows that you don't know much about the Chinese people!"
No one dared to speak and could only respond to Lu Shengli by lowering their heads and avoiding his gaze.
"Chinese people, especially those who can afford a luxury car worth 100 million Chinese yuan, do they care about the 50% increase? I tell you, they don't care at all!"
"The Chinese care about their face! Our Xiandai Group is their face! Driving our Korean cars is giving them face!"
"The reason why I raised the price is to tell the Chinese people a point of view. BYD Group's new car Yangshi V7 is a piece of rubbish! It is not worthy of being compared with our Xiandai Group's IC5 built with semi-solid batteries!"
"When we were looking up to V7, announcing the price increase was a way of showing contempt and looking down on it. It was to tell the world that our IC5 is the best and no one can come and try to rip it off!"
As he spoke, Lu Shengli took a sip of water and said sinisterly.
"One more thing, when you make the announcement, add a sentence saying that the price of IC5 will increase tomorrow. If you place an order today, the current price will be maintained!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone instantly understood what their president meant.
"President, you are going to slap BYD in the face at BYD Group's press conference!"
"As a competitor, we dared to openly propose a 50% price increase when BYD released its new car. This is a provocation and contempt!"
"President, your words 'if you place an order now, we will maintain the original price' are a stroke of genius!"
"Then once the news is announced, countless orders will come pouring in to grab the spot that has not been raised in price."
"President, this wave of price increases has really earned you a lot of face and money!"
All the executives at the scene gave Lu Shengli a thumbs up.
"The president is awesome!"
"The president is brilliant!"
"The president is great!"
Listening to the compliments from everyone present, Lu Shengli just smiled faintly.
As for the reason for the 5% price increase of IC10, he did not fully explain the reason.
Another reason is that price increases can increase profits for the linear generation group.
Today, the group must expand its ability to make money.
In addition, suppressing BYT's new products can increase the stock price of Xiandai Group, which is also one of the reasons!
All kinds of compliments echoed in Lu Shengli's ears, but he did not lose himself because of them.
In a joyful atmosphere, he winked at the director of the group's public relations department.
The other party understood, took out his phone, and started contacting people...
