Chapter 610: The Only Big Pancake in the World

In fact, Zi Xiaowei's classroom techniques are somewhat new to the workplace.

At least this opening is impressive enough.

Look at this young tall and thin guy, wearing a black and gray T-shirt, dark gray sweatpants, white sneakers and a winter coat on top.

If he were sent to any university, he would be the kind of feminine handsome guy that girls would subconsciously take a second look at. It's just that he doesn't take care of his hair and face. It's basically the result of the makeup artist carefully retouching his hair at his wedding with Gao Tingting and then letting it grow back carelessly.

But in a workplace like Shanghai, people might first look at the two ladies walking beside him.

Leaning quietly on the sofa in the reception area downstairs, Dai Anni looked like a country leopard. Now even Gao Tingting deliberately took off her glasses, and Dai Anni once again released her domineering and arrogant temperament.

It immediately makes people take a second look to confirm that everything on these three people is high-end.

The one with a plump figure is wearing all haute couture clothes, and it is obvious that she took off her coat to enter the air-conditioned environment. The petite one is wearing sports casual clothes. Wait, why do they look so familiar?
As for the seemingly low-key ordinary bread jacket on the young man, it is the kind of ordinary jacket with each down panel bulging like a slice of bread. It is a monk jacket that costs about 10,000 or 20,000 yuan. The same one can be bought for 100 yuan on Pinduoduo.

As long as you can recognize one thing, you will find that they are all this low-key and pretentious stuff.

Zi Xiaowei doesn't care about the clothes his family buys for him, he just wears whatever is given to him.

He stood there quite casually now. "I first discussed the possibility of acquiring and undertaking marketing with Mr. Zhang at the Shanghai Auto Show in May. My partners and I were looking for a distinctive sedan or coupe, hoping to tweak the packaging and launch it on a trial basis. We even test-drove the Gaohe coupe. The test driver was the chairman of Changjiang Automobile, which currently has a production capacity of 1.8 million units. Besides Mr. Zhang, the other people sitting in the back seat were the president of Jiang'an Automobile. My assessment of them was that this was a good car worth selling."

The group of listing experts, mostly foreigners, were crowded together, and those who were poor at Chinese couldn't help but lean closer to listen to the translation.

Other than that, there was complete silence.

All the arrogance and confidence are nothing in front of the top bosses of domestic car companies of this level.

But Zi Xiaowei wasn't just using this big shot to save face. "But Mr. Zhang declined my suggestion because he still had dreams of revitalizing the car company in other ways. Then the president of Jiang'an Automobile, who was sitting next to him, seized the opportunity and asked us to take over the packaging, adjustments, trial production, and launch of the Evita Coupe. What happened?"

The whole audience was filled with uncontrollable sighs, regrets, annoyances, and heartaches!
We are all colleagues in the automotive industry. It is impossible not to be envious when I see the top student finally get the top score in the country.

Even people as arrogant as these people originally didn't want to listen to this kind of heart-wrenching and high-scoring excitement.

Only mediocre people don't care about the grades of other top students.

They are all experts who have devoted many years of hard work to car bodies. They know every detail, every turn, every code, every inch of material, and every screw. They know at a glance why they do this. Why didn't I think of it this way at the time?

In short, I don’t know whether they have disassembled the Evita coupe during work, or whether they have driven it privately and touched it with their own hands.

Anyway, they must have been attracted by the pre-sale of more than 500,000 Evita Coupes in July, 260,000 of which were locked in before National Day, and a total of 370,000 orders after the holiday!
This result should have been theirs!

It’s like a top student who has studied hard for many years, but when you are about to take the exam, you are given a brush and told to grind the ink yourself and answer the paper.

It is really possible that someone with a sensitive mind would hold his head with his hands and scream in pain!

Maizi couldn't help but frown slightly and felt the same way.

As the epitome of industrial manufacturing, passenger cars are more easily influenced by the preferences of ordinary consumers than airplanes.

Aircraft orders are more influenced by factors such as safety considerations, industrial competition, and model matching.

Passenger cars must take into account the aesthetics, usage habits, and driving characteristics of ordinary consumers. The model positioning, style shaping, and appearance aesthetics are all closely related to the final results.

The aircraft industry is a major weapon of a great power, while automobile manufacturing is more like the return of all swords to their roots, with a considerable element of artistic aesthetics and delicate perception.

Zi Xiaowei has not received a complete training in artistic aesthetics, but he has a good sense of aesthetics starting from photography. More importantly, he grew up with a scumbag man, and his perception of care and concern is absolutely full.

Therefore, to be able to reach the expert level in the automotive design team, artistic talent, professional training, and life experience are all indispensable.

Sad, so sad.

It is the extreme pain of knowing that the child you have conceived, after spending all your efforts, is born dying.

Maybe it was already suppressed in the minds of these team members.

But now I heard that the neighboring child, who was born in the same year and is strong and popular, was raised in a super incubator that originally belonged to our family!

The kind where no one cares about their own children and they are left on the roadside to fend for themselves.

The biological parents will feel extremely torn apart.

The sound of crying started immediately and quickly spread like wildfire.

The IPO team's experts were astonished, with several tall, white men even leaning in to observe the emotional display. Some even approached Mr. Mai to question him.

Maizi turned around and explained the huge sales gap involved.

We also saw the prototype on display in May, but till now, the SUV that costs more than 300,000 yuan has not yet reached the test drive stage, which clearly shows that the R&D funds are almost exhausted.

The coupe that was barely launched on the market sold more than 180 units in the past six months!
There is no need to compare with the sales figures. There are more than 200 Evita coupes sent to commercial centers across the country for display.

Gaohe’s stores, which have basically shrunk, may still need to occupy some of the sample cars?

At this time, it was obvious that Zi Xiaowei's statement, which was first positive and then negative, really caused pain to the entire R&D team. When they looked up at him again, they would inevitably look at him as if he were God.

That’s right, Zi Xiaowei said that he originally wanted to give this opportunity to Gao He, but you didn’t accept it, so he gave it to Evita.

I wonder if this kind of pain, for which there is no medicine for regret, will make everyone present hate Mr. Zhang.

There was no doubt that Zi Xiaowei could turn stone into gold. Someone had already shouted, "Mr. Xiong, I hope you can give Gao Hehe a chance and let us try again!"

This person raised his hand and suddenly everyone raised their hands, and then everyone said in unison: "I hope you can give me another chance!"

“We can do our best!”

"I have confidence..."

"Let's try again!"

"Let's try again!"

Really, even Chang Yueling was talking about it on the way home. They were sitting in the VIP conference room on the second floor, haggling over every little thing, when suddenly they heard a chorus of shouts from upstairs that penetrated the floor!

It was vague at first, but later it became very clear.

It really shocked everyone sitting in the conference room.

Zi Xiaowei also stood there quietly, listening to the increasingly orderly and passionate cheers, without calling for a stop.

After at least ten shouts, he raised his hand to signal, and everyone immediately fell silent. The feeling that the students in the classroom were able to work together was inexplicably formed in these few shouts.

But the pretentiousness of anchor Xiong was just beginning to show. "Our team achieved hundreds of billions in sales last year, and I'm too lazy to brag about it anymore, because the data and performance can be seen everywhere online, and they are authentic, reliable and impeccable. I almost always wear a headgear and plush clothes when I go on the live broadcast room to speak publicly. There is no other reason. I hope that my daily life will not be disturbed by onlookers. Later, it became a deliberately created internal gimmick. There are always people speculating about topics such as anchor Xiong's true identity. Therefore, there is a tacit understanding within the company to try not to make me public, and I don't accept public filming. But before I walked into the building, there were also people who insisted on filming me, believing that it was their free right. So when we acquired Gaohe, the first thing we did was to terminate the contracts of all administrative and marketing departments..."

To his surprise, it was not that the young man who had just taken the photo was shocked and embarrassed, but that the R&D center suddenly erupted into applause from nowhere that swept the entire audience!
"it is good!"

"These guys should have been fired long ago!"

Damn, there are serious problems within the company.

Even the relationships between R&D, administration, and marketing are so incompatible?

Zi Xiaowei observed the expressions of all the "students" present. Alas, this was definitely the subconscious reaction of any excellent teacher. He noticed that there were a few who were embarrassed, standing further to the side and seemed to be dressed more upscale. Most of those who applauded looked like front-line R&D engineers.

He continued to observe, "Of course, all managers involved in the use of funds and approval authority will, like everyone else in the production system, hand over and clean up all accounts. Only after confirming that there has been no occupational crime will their contracts be terminated..."

There was another round of warm applause.

If we were begging Mr. Xiong to give us another chance just now, but now he has become a good boss, we will definitely follow him just for this reason!

Zi Xiaowei had to wait until the momentum died down before speaking. "This is my understanding of freedom. Hayek once said that freedom is obeying common abstract rules, while slavery is obeying common concrete goals. The demands that you develop and sell a certain number of cars and achieve a certain level of profitability are slavery... As for me, I will only lead everyone in our common endeavor to make new energy vehicles sweep the entire global market. This is the freedom I hope to experience with you all..."

Regardless of whether you know who Hayek is or not, you can easily understand the difference between these two realms.

Even Diane understood it, and her eyes were full of "WTF!", "Dad, you really are good at fooling people."

She is a veteran hardcore capitalist and certainly not easily fooled or deceived.

But everyone else at the scene, including the Chinese and foreign experts from the IPO team, couldn’t help but applaud and cheer along with all the R&D staff!
Brother Qiang and his friends who happened to be walking up the stairs also heard it, along with a group of big shareholders.

This young man!

Your family must own a Pizza Hut, so good at making big promises.
