"Reveal the base bids? Absolutely not. I can guarantee that you will win two bids, and that is the best I can do. You had contributed to CCTV for the past two years. I will not reveal the base bids for the other auctions to you. "Station Chief Jia shook his head.
Feng Yu was disappointed. This Station Chief Jia does not know how to be flexible. He was helping the CCTV to save money. The advertising fees were high, and they still need to hand it over to the higher-ups.
After Feng Yu left, Station Chief Jia brought the brochure to report to his leader. He was also leaning towards Songjiang Motors. The only pity was that Bing City Machinery Company was not a state-owned enterprise. It was not a state-owned enterprise like FAW or SAIC Motor. If not, he would not hesitate.
… …
"Old Jia, why do you want to buy these cars? I had heard of this brand before. They had advertised on CCTV before. I think it was Baldy Chen and Zhu Simao. But this is only a motorcycle factory. Do you dare to sit in their cars? " The Station Chief shook his head. He knew Deputy Chief Jia and Feng Yu were close, but this does not mean that he can take care of everything.
"But there is a national level test report in the back of the brochure. All the indicators are compared with the vehicles we are familiar with. Also, the higher-ups had told us to save money. The Publicity Department had approved our purchase of this batch of government vehicles a long time ago, and the quantity is not enough to meet our needs. If we can get cheap and good quality vehicles, we can buy a few more. "
The Station Chief frowned. This was a problem. The total amount of money was fixed. If they were to buy cheap vehicles, they can buy a few more. If they were to buy expensive vehicles, they will have to buy fewer.
The Station Chief had also seen the pictures on the brochure. This car was not bad. The exterior was grand and spacious. It should be comfortable to sit in. The brochure also stated that the shock absorption and noise control were good. But there was no price tag on the brochure.
"We had discussed before. Aren't we going to buy Audi 200, Audi 100, and Santana? How about the quality of this Songjiang Motors? Who knows if it is as good as the brochure says? " The Station Chief was a little worried. If they saved money but bought some old cars, it would be a big problem.
Feng Yu had already thought about this. He had sent a batch of sample cars from Bing City to Beijing and parked them outside the New Year's Eve Gala's recording studio.
Even if CCTV does not buy his car this time, he still wants to let those bosses and leaders who were attending the ceremony see his Songjiang Motors. At the same time, the reporters can also take pictures of him.
"The cost of this car is less than a hundred thousand. Let the driver test drive it. It's definitely better than the Santana."
An engineer from the Machinery Company was introducing all sorts of parameters with an arrogant look on his face. Songjiang Motors was named Olympic, and the cost of the lowest configuration was less than 90,000 RMB. But General Manager Feng told Feng Yu that it was less than 100,000 RMB.
The driver looked at the leader and went up to test drive the car. When he returned, he nodded at the leader excitedly. This car was really good to drive, and the shock absorption and noise control were better than the Santana. Furthermore, the exterior of the car was majestic.
"The cost of this car is about 200,000 RMB. It is a dual-purpose car. The advantages of this car are that the interior is spacious, and the rear seats are spacious. It is very comfortable to sit inside … …"
This time, Station Chief Jia was also sitting in the front seat. He wanted to experience how comfortable this Songjiang – Red Star car was.
Feng Yu also followed and demonstrated to Station Chief Jia how to adjust the angle of the seats. There was also a board in front of the seat, just like the dining table on an airplane.
Before Station Chief Jia could experience all the features of the car, the driver told him that they had completed one lap.
So fast? There were no bumps, and it was very quiet inside. There was a layer of film on both sides of the windows. The people inside could see outside, and the people outside could only see through the windows.
"This is Songjiang – Off-Road. It is a suburban multi-purpose car. This car uses a diesel engine, and it is more powerful. It can adapt to different road conditions. This car is very useful for interviews in the villages … …"
Songjiang – Olympic cars had 3 models, Songjiang – Red Star, and Songjiang – Off-Road which has diesel and petrol models. Feng Yu had introduced all 6 models to Station Chief Jia. The team leader and the rest of the drivers nodded at Station Chief Jia.
Some of the drivers were there to drive the leaders, and some were there to visit the mines. All of them felt that Songjiang Motors cars were as good as what Feng Yu had introduced them.
Also, the prices were cheaper than Volkswagen Santana and Audi. Just the Songjiang Olympic luxury model was quoted by CCTV at 350,000 RMB per unit. The performance was comparable to the imported Audi 200, and it was even better. The imported Audi 200 cost about 500,000 RMB per unit.
Songjiang – Olympic luxury model was priced at 200,000 RMB per unit. Its performance was much better than Audi 100. Audi 100 was priced at 350,000 RMB, and it was still a domestic joint venture car!
Songjiang – Olympic economy model was priced at 100,000 RMB per unit. It was lower than Santana's lowest price of 120,000 RMB. The exterior, interior, performance, and price were all superior. The only thing that Songjiang lacked was the brand.
Feng Yu was speechless. Songjiang Motors was the worst automobile brand in China. It could not be compared to those joint venture car brands, and it could not be compared to the domestic Shanghai and Hongqi brands.
But now, the production of Shanghai and Hongqi cars had stopped. Shanghai was mainly producing Santana. The front of the car had the Volkswagen logo, and the back of the car had the words "Shanghai – Santana". Hongqi's production line was changed to Audi 100's production line. Now, they could sell whatever they produced. Almost all the government vehicles were Audi 100.
It was until the beginning of this year, when Audi 200 was imported into China, that Audi 100 was sold to individuals. In the past, individuals could not buy new Audi 100 even if they wanted to.
Feng Yu looked at Station Chief Jia and said loudly: "Our Songjiang Motors is a new brand, but it is China's only national automobile brand. Which aspect of our quality, price, and appearance are worse than those joint venture cars? Just because our brand is not well known, you all want to buy Audi and Santana? Do you all know how much money we will let those foreigners make from us? "
Station Chief Jia waved his hand: "General Manager Feng, don't be too agitated. I have not decided yet. I need to go back and discuss with the rest. Let's talk about this after we come to a decision. "
Anyway, even if they want to buy cars, they can only buy them after they get the advertising funds. The Publicity Department will not give CCTV the funds to buy cars. The Ministry of Public Security does not have enough cars.
After Station Chief Jia and the rest left, the agitated look on Feng Yu's face had disappeared. He could still control this bit of emotion. What he said earlier was not an act. It was because he was upset. Automobile joint venture was a solution to quench thirst with poison!
"Engineer Wang, take a taxi back to the hotel. You had done well today. I had specially prepared a pager for you. Make sure it is switched on 24 hours." Feng Yu gave Engineer Wang two banknotes.
"Ok. General Manager Feng, I will go back first." Feng Yu will not take a taxi. Taking the public transport was more economical. Anyway, the money he saved will go into his pocket.
Deputy Station Chief Jia should be convinced by Feng Yu. Now, it was up to Master Lu to publish that article. With that article, there was an 80% chance that CCTV will purchase Songjiang Motors cars. This will be the first step for Songjiang Motors cars to enter the government vehicle market!
