#612 - Reduced configuration
But having acquired the skill, Qian Shouhai wasn't satisfied!
He knew that being an air conditioner repair technician for life would never make him rich!
Later, by chance, Qian Shouhai met his wife!
His wife was a saleswoman for a domestic air conditioner brand. Qian Shouhai had gone with his fellow villagers to attend the company's annual meeting, which is how they met!
Later, after unremitting efforts, Qian Shouhai finally succeeded in pursuing that girl and making her his wife!
After that, with his wife's help, Qian Shouhai became a small dealer for this brand in Hangzhou, a very small one!
When Qian Shouhai first started his business, he borrowed money everywhere and only managed to scrape together 500,000!
Later, the small shop was managed by the couple, and that small dealership!
After more than ten years of development, it has reached its current wealth!
Qian Shouhai used his own efforts to prove that as long as you persevere, you will succeed!
After having money, Qian Shouhai wanted to buy himself a better car!
Because the car he was currently driving had been driven for seven years and it was time to retire!
Moreover, in Daxia, a good car can often have a multiplier effect when negotiating business!
Especially when Qian Shouhai went out to discuss business with others, those big bosses drove either Audis or Benzes, while he was the only one driving a Volkswagen!
So, Qian Shouhai discussed it with his wife, and the two of them went to look at cars!
Regarding the car type, Qian Shouhai first excluded sedans!
Because he was tall and didn't really like sedans!
He wanted to buy an SUV that had status, face, and enough space!
"Wife, let's go to the Audi 4S store first!"
"Audi cars are our domestic enterprise, the quality is absolutely guaranteed!"
"The big bosses I've seen drive either Audi A6s or Audi A8s."
When going to see the car, Qian Shouhai wanted to go to see Audi cars first!
However, his wife wanted to go to the Benz 4S store first!
"Husband, let's go to the Benz 4S store first!"
"The Benz GLS I saw before has been redesigned and upgraded, and the interior is so beautiful!"
"We'll go see Audi cars later, and it's not like you don't know, Audi cars are all sedans now, there's no SUV you like!"
Qian Shouhai thought about it after hearing his wife's words, and it was true!
Although Audi cars were good, they didn't have any SUV models now, they were all sedans!
On the day the two of them went to see the car, it happened to be when Audi was holding a new car launch event in China!
So, the two of them didn't know that Audi was going to launch several new cars!
So, the two of them went to the Benz 4S store!
After the radical reform of Xin Ke Paul, the Benz 4S store!
Now, the Benz 4S store has achieved the same transparent pricing as Audi in terms of service and charging model!
Those messy service fees, price increase fees, and other things have all disappeared!
Now the Benz 4S store has a very good service attitude!
"Wife, look, the service at the Benz 4S store is so honest now!"
"If it weren't for Audi, these foreign car companies would still be cheating our domestic consumers now, right?"
Qian Shouhai said to his wife after seeing the service at the Benz 4S store during the car viewing process!
Qian Shouhai knew very well how bad the domestic car market was before Audi rose!
When he bought a Volkswagen imported car, he experienced all kinds of inexplicable mandatory consumption and price increases before finally getting the car!
What about now?
Since Audi's rise, which car company's 4S store dares to do this!
Audi's transparent pricing model and customer-first service standards!
Have been unanimously praised among consumers in Daxia!
Qian Shouhai and his wife test drove the new Benz GLS350, which is a full-size city SUV.
This car's face and space definitely meet Qian Haishou's expectations!
The price of 1.1 million is also a price that Qian Shouhai can accept!
However, in the end, Qian Shouhai was stuck on the configuration options!
Because he looked at the basic configuration of the Benz GLS350, and this configuration was simply too low!
"Damn, does everything have to be optional?"
"Just choosing a little configuration costs more than 200,000!"
Now Qian Shouhai is a little confused looking at the option list in his hand!
"Mr. Qian, our Benz GLS350 is a pure imported model!"
"So, in order to reduce the basic selling price, some configurations will be reduced!"
"In addition to retaining the basic required configurations, everything else needs to be optional!"
"Now imported cars are basically like this!"
The Benz car salesperson patiently explained to Qian Shouhai the reason why imported cars are expensive!
In general, it is because imported cars have high tariffs!
If you want to reduce the selling price, you need to reduce the various configurations on the car, so that the bare car's selling price can be reduced!
And if customers want these configurations, they need to choose them!
"Ahem... I need to consider it first!"
"After all, you also know that buying a car worth millions requires caution!"
Qian Shouhai also knew about this kind of thing for the first time!
"Mr. Qian, it doesn't matter!"
"After you have considered it, you can come directly to us to find me or call me!"
After some effort, the salesperson saw that Qian Shouhai didn't mean to order the car immediately, so he had to leave Qian Shouhai's contact information!
"Wife, if it doesn't work, let's go buy an Audi A8!"
"Although the Audi A8 is not an SUV, it only starts at 660,000, and the configuration is definitely high enough!"
The various configurations of the Benz GLS350 are simply too low!
Choosing a little bit will cost more than 200,000, which makes Qian Shouhai feel very uncomfortable!
"Husband, you decide, anyway, I only sit in the passenger seat!"
Qian Shouhai's wife also knew Qian Shouhai's temper very well, and she also felt that Benz cars were not worth the price!
"Let's go, let's go to the Audi 4S store and take a look!"
The two of them turned around and came to the Hangzhou Audi 4S store!
Originally, Qian Shouhai planned to buy an Audi A8 directly.
However, when he entered the Audi 4S store, he saw three SUS models, directly placed in the most conspicuous place!
"What's the situation, doesn't Audi have any SUV models?"
"When did Audi release three SUV models?"
Seeing this situation, Qian Shouhai was a little confused!
But the next second, he was attracted by these three cars!
He should have been attracted by one of them, a square and rugged SUV!
This square model is not another Audi car model, it is the Audi Q9 named by Lu Haifeng.
