We are all reborn, who wants to be the richest man?
Chapter 413 Recognized Piech and GPU (page 12)
"Don't you care?"
The day after Piëch arrived in Spring City, Welch and Luo Niazhong got the news and the specific contents of the negotiations.
Welch didn't know what to say about Piëch's somewhat opportunistic and loophole-taking behavior.
In terms of ability, he recognized Piëch.
Regardless of the Spring City incident, Audi should have no problem doubling its turnover this year as long as it works harder. Welch admires this.
Piëch seized the large platform of the Far East and formulated the strategy of exchanging price for sales volume which was very successful.
Although it may not look like copying homework, you must be able to copy it, know where the homework is, and make consumers accept it.
There are hundreds of thousands of employees in the Far East Department. Some do not want to buy a car, some do not want to change their car. How many of them actually have the idea to change their car or plan to buy a car?
How can you guarantee that when someone changes their car, they will switch to an Audi? Even though it is cheap, Audi is a mid-to-high-end car after all, and not everyone can afford it.
So Piëch provided training for all Audi 4S store salesmen. Welch was most optimistic about this person's ability because he had experienced it personally.
Two months ago, Audi issued a letter to all employees within the Far East Department.
The content is very colorful, but in summary it means one thing, that is, Audi has brought benefits to employees within the group, and they can buy cars at a discount.
It doesn’t matter whether you buy it or not, you can go and have a look, or you can let your family members go and have a look. Then you will receive a small gift, and you can also participate in the lottery for free, and the grand prize is Audi 100.
This is very attractive to people of this generation. Even if many people don’t want to go, when they get home, will their family members go?
Welch didn't know about other places, but the three 4S stores on Hong Kong Island were packed with long queues on the first day of the event, and they all made the news on Hong Kong Island.
At that time, Welch was not interested in Luo Nianzhong's choice as the future head of Far East Automobile Group, so he also went there to see what other tricks the other party had up his sleeve.
"Hello sir".
As soon as he entered the store, something happened inside Welch.
Everyone who goes to buy a car knows that the first thing a salesperson says is usually "Hello, sir, are you here to buy a car?"
You don't think there's a problem when everyone says this, but when someone makes a change, there's a problem.
Do I have to buy a car when I enter a 4S store? Let’s see if it doesn’t work, right?
In sales terms, this was forcing an order. It was nothing before. Looking at the little girl who said nothing after asking the question and just stood aside and looked at him, Welch instantly felt the comfort in the tone and the curiosity in his heart.
"What are you looking at?"
"No sir, I just think that you must be a glamorous big boss with your clothes, right?"
"No, I am also working for others, just like you."
The little girl smiled, and her eyes revealed a feeling of admiration and yearning. This kind of look would generally be enjoyed by men.
"Sir, you are joking. Even if you work part-time, you are different from us. If you don't suggest it, may I ask you a few questions?"
"OK". Welch became increasingly interested.
"Sir, you came by car, you have a driver."
"Why? Can't I drive by myself?"
"Sir, please stop making trouble. Although I don't know the price of what you are wearing, it is definitely beyond imagination. How can such a person drive by himself?"
Welch smiled and nodded in recognition.
"Then for a successful person like you, the car you drive must be a Rolls-Royce Bentley, right?"
"You guessed it right."
"It seems that sir, you need an affordable car for you, just for your daily convenience and low profile."
If Welch hadn't come here specifically for inspection, people like him would probably come to Audi just to buy a low-key mobility scooter.
Unfortunately, the other party had just slightly forced the order, and before Welch could respond, the 4S store manager saw and recognized Welch.
It was disappointing to be interrupted, but Welch felt it was enough, which also made Welch change his view of Piëch a lot.
In just a few months, it was not easy for Piech to not only master the right to speak at Audi, but also figure out Nissan's routine in the Far East. What's more, he also made an upgrade, which Welch appreciated.
But Welch didn't like his eagerness to show off and give up interests to highlight his abilities.
It is true that Welch also knew how much impact Audi's becoming an official car would have on Audi's future, but Welch was not satisfied with the way Piëch did things, because he was taking away Audi's wealth.
Far Eastern OEMs are located all over the country, but they have never shared the most advanced and core technologies with others. They are all wholly-owned factories.
For example, the latest Far East chip and lithography machine technology are like this. This is Far East’s long-standing strategy.
"You underestimate Piech too much. He can't let go of Audi's real core technologies, such as quattro four-wheel drive.
Look, even if we bring out the Audi 100 and cooperate with Spring City, many things cannot be manufactured in Spring City."
To be honest, with FAW's current technology, it can't even make many things for it, and the equipment is not good enough.
European and American companies would not sell the most advanced industrial equipment even if they could.
What they sell is technology that is one generation behind, which is still good. Some even use completely obsolete products to sell to rabbits.
On the road of technology introduction, Rabbit often pays for simplicity, not to mention that some equipment is introduced and cannot be used but can only be eaten as decoration, and there are serious scams and abductions.
"Okay, let Piëch handle Audi's affairs by himself. My consistent style is to employ people without doubting others, and to reward those who have merit and punish those who have failed.
Now let’s talk about ATI, I am more interested in this company than Audi.”
ATI is the second largest GPU company after NVIDIA, but it was later acquired by AMD, the second largest CPU company, so many people may not have seen this name.
Few people know that the founder of this GPU giant in the 1980s who brought graphics cards into the VGA era is actually Ho Kwok-yuan, a native of Hong Kong Island.
Historically, because the future of Hong Kong Island was unclear, he went to Canada in 1984, where he met two other Hong Kong Islanders and embarked on the road of developing GPUs.
It’s different now. Hong Kong Island has a pivotal position in the world’s semiconductor industry because of the Far East, and He Guoyuan has not left Hong Kong Island.
But he still followed the same path as in his previous life, and the 3D graphics card era arrived three years in advance, so Luo Nianzhong was looking forward to meeting the company ATI.
"Chairman, Mr. He Guoyuan has arrived and is in the lounge now."
"I know, bring it to my office".
Seeing Ji Mingyue twisting her tight plump body without hesitation, Welch laughed like a man.
"It seems that some people in the company are a little happy now, but you'd better be careful and beware of surprise inspections by the boss lady."
