Chapter 321 Which car should be built first?
It has to be said that as the second-in-command of the province, Liu Qiwen still has some pomp and ceremony.
Motorcycles led the way and ended the race, with three BMWs in the middle. Of course, one was borrowed from Lao Yi.
But this is not important. What is important is that Lao Yi may be very fond of this car, so he insisted on coming along.
Of course this was just Fang Xiang's guess, because the car was so clean.
As for how Fang Xiang knew?
Is there any need to ask? He must be sitting inside.
If you don’t know, you might think it was a motorcycle leading the way, but if you know, you’d be scared to death when you see it was the provincial second son leading the way!
As for who owned the last BMW? It doesn't matter.
Soon, the small convoy arrived at the GAC base.
Of course, it’s not called that now. After all, the sign hasn’t been hung up yet, right?
When Fang wanted to take up his post at Factory 132, he was received by a deputy secretary.
This time when we arrived at GAC, we actually saved the trouble of having the first and second brothers to receive us together.
Several leaders who had already taken office in the factory were surprised by the sudden visit.
Everyone's waist is bent lower than anyone else.
After seeing this, Fang Xiang couldn't help but speak up for the Japanese devils.
"Professor Fang, the country has made a huge move this time and invested billions. We are counting on you."
The provincial governor’s surname is Fu, and Fang Xiang wondered if he would feel uncomfortable being called deputy secretary every day.
"Secretary Fu is too polite. This is what I should do."
Fang Xiang looked at the pot-bellied Secretary Fu and smiled reservedly.
Although he really wanted to interview Secretary Fu, he could only think about it. He still had to give face to Lao Yi, right?
"So will Professor Fang stay this time?
Have you arranged a place to live?"
Secretary Fu is very clear about Fang Xiang’s background, just as Fang Xiang is also very clear about Secretary Fu’s background.
But it's all just a face-saving measure and we still have to deal with it.
"It depends on the situation. Even I don't know yet."
Fang Xiang glanced in the small conference room and saw that everyone was sitting there, smiling dryly as they watched the two of them chatting.
When he noticed Fang Xiang's eyes looking at him, the smile that had just seemed forced immediately became sincere.
“I still really hope that Professor Fang can stay.
Such a big factory can be without anyone, but it cannot be without you, Professor Fang."
Secretary Fu's words sound very sophisticated, but in fact, they do not contain any substance.
But everyone present nodded, as if what Secretary Fu said was absolutely right.
“Secretary Fu is exaggerating.
The state has invested a lot of money in this factory, hoping to achieve some results.
All of you here are elites among the country's elites.
I hope you can cooperate sincerely and create a better future together. "
Seeing Secretary Fu's clichés one after another, Fang Xiang was beginning to get impatient.
Just get to the point in one sentence.
"It should, it should."
When everyone present heard this, they all spoke up to express their opinions.
“Well, the rest of the time will be left to Professor Fang.
If you need any help or assistance, please contact me and Governor Liu directly.
You guys chat, I have official business to attend to, so I won’t bother you any more.”
Secretary Fu is already in his sixties, but he is very experienced.
He could understand what Fang Xiang meant. He rolled his eyes and knew that he would become annoying if he stayed any longer.
He immediately and decisively said goodbye.
"Okay, I'll take you there."
Fang Xiang also stood up.
"Professor Fang, please stay. You are needed here more than I am.
When you are free, you can come and have tea with me more often. "
Secretary Fu took the initiative to extend his hand and expressed his goodwill.
"Then I will bother you more in the future."
Fang Xiang held Secretary Fu's hand and shook it up and down.
After watching Secretary Fu get into the car and disappear from sight, Fang Xiang shook his head.
Secretary Fu is not young anymore. If he doesn’t have a great opportunity, this term will basically be his last.
Just do the necessary things to save face, and as for the rest, forget it.
"Let's go take a look around the factory?"
Although Secretary Fu left, Liu Qiwen did not leave.
Looking at the endless factory area in front of him, he took the initiative to propose.
"Well, let's take a look."
Fang Xiang nodded.
This is also his first time here.
By the way, he also drew the design drawings of the factory, and he knew exactly what each location and each factory building was used for.
But after all, you haven’t seen it with your own eyes, right?
“This old Fu probably wants to stay for another term.
I want to take advantage of you so that I can get a raise when I retire."
After getting in the car, Liu Qiwen lowered his voice and said something.
“There’s actually no harm in staying one more term.
If you improve quickly, you will be able to take over his position in two terms."
As the car started, Fang Xiang lowered the window and looked at the newly built factory.
Although it is newly built, all the staff are here.
Even before work started, you could already see people in the factory.
“I guess it’s difficult. The guy behind him is also going to retreat.
This is a big peach, who wouldn’t want to rub it? "
Liu Qiwen shook his head. There were many people above him keeping an eye on this factory.
Not only do you not have to spend a penny, you don't have to worry about anything and you can get such a great political achievement.
No one is stupid.
Although the subsequent game cannot be seen, it is no less bloody.
If Liu's father's plan goes wrong, Liu Qiwen might not be able to keep his position after retirement.
Of course, this is a low probability event.
"What about you? Can you hold on?"
Fang wanted to stretch out a hand and feel the temperature outside.
Although it is winter now, the temperature in Guangzhou today is about 20 degrees.
It’s much more comfortable than Chengdu where the temperature is only 5 degrees.
At this time, the temperature in Luoyi was probably already below zero.
If the summer wasn't so hot, this would be a great place.
But it’s not a big problem, just install an air conditioner.
"Don't worry.
If you come over, how long will it take for the production to start?"
Liu Qiwen smiled confidently.
“It’ll take at least a month.
There are many things that cannot be moved here directly for use.
If you want to go faster, that’s not impossible, but I don’t think the model will be easy to sell.”
After hearing Liu Qiwen's words, Fang Xiang pondered for a moment before giving an answer.
“It’s better to hurry up. How do you know if it will sell well before the sale even starts?
On the contrary, the production is more important, what do you think? "
Liu Qiwen had no idea what Fang Xiang was thinking, and could only say that the butt determines the head.
As for him, he certainly hopes to see the actual car as soon as possible.
But Fang has a lot to consider.
“Things that can be made quickly may not sell well.
Products that sell well may not be produced so quickly.
This is a dilemma.
If I really listen to you, I will make it first, but then it won't sell well, who will take the responsibility?"
Fang wanted to laugh. He saw through Liu Qiwen's thoughts at a glance.
"So do you want to start high and end low, or do you want to start low and end high?"
But then Liu Qiwen expressed his different opinion.
I have to say, even Fang Xiang was speechless after hearing this.
There is nothing wrong with what Liu Qiwen said. Fang Xiang thinks it sells well. What if it is just what he thinks?
Who can guarantee that a car that sold well in later generations will still sell well now?
BMW's success is the result of combining all the necessary factors for success.
But what about mid- to low-end cars?
He didn't have time to do market research beforehand.
“Listen to me, it’s more important to start production first.
We have to get the factory going first.
Even if it's hard to sell for the time being, my dad and I can cover for you.
Besides, didn’t you say that you have nearly ten models in your plan?
The subsequent products will be released one by one slowly. There will always be some that sell well and some that don’t.
You are not a god, so you can't guarantee that all car models will be popular, right?"
Seeing that Fang Xiang remained silent, Liu Qiwen continued to persuade him.
