My Age of Investment

  Chapter 411 Because this is capital (seeking monthly pass)

  The information passed by Xia Jingxing to his father was passed on by his father to his old classmates, and the parent official passed on to Yin Mingshan.

  So Yin Mingshan had a friendly call with Tesla’s management.

  Yin Mingshan is nearly seventy years old, but his English level is not bad, and he is able to speak fluently with two foreigners, Eberhard and Tarpening.

  Xia Jingxing did not ask the old man whether he learned English in college?

  Because this touched the other party’s sadness again, when he was about to enter university, 23-year-old Yin Mingshan was imprisoned for nearly 20 years because of composition problems.

  In prison, Yin Mingshan began to read a lot to relieve his loneliness.

  With his little introductory English in high school, Yin Mingshan began to study higher-level English books by himself, and achieved the level of translating foreign books.

Yin Mingshan, who was in his early forties after his release from prison, became an English teacher at the Shancheng Design Institute by virtue of his excellent English. Later he became an editor and deputy director of a publishing house. Later, the establishment of Hongda Vehicle Parts Institute (the predecessor of Lifan Group) laid a solid foundation.

  This can be said to be the most inspirational case in which knowledge changes destiny!

  I was in jail in my twenties and was released in his early forties. This experience can drive ordinary people crazy, let alone self-study English.

  It is precisely because of being hardened by life and by the times to have such a temper and perseverance, Yin Mingshan can turn a bad life card into a king bomb.

  Flowers do not have a hundred days of red, and people do not have a thousand days to be good. Although Lifan later declined, Yin Mingshan at this time is definitely a model of inspiration.

  "Mr. Xia, Mr. Eberhard, and Mr. Tarpening, we Lifan absolutely have no other malice. We just want to compete on the same stage with a "tech sports car" company like Tesla!

  Although we are likely to lose, as a newcomer who has just stepped into the automotive industry, we have this consciousness. "

  The old man is very talkative, and he invented a new vocabulary-"technological sports car" when he came up. The high hat was directly put on Tesla.

  Eberhard responded: "Mr. Yin, we heard Darren introduce your legendary experience and admire you as an inspirational entrepreneur.

  However, Lifan Motors suddenly came out to disrupt the situation and caused us a lot of losses. "

  Yin Mingshan on the other end of the phone did not evade this topic, and said sincerely: "I'm very sorry, our recklessness caused a lot of trouble to Tesla.

  But I declare that we are really unintentional.

  In order to express our apologies, Lifan is willing to order a Tesla founder series.

  Although this little money is far from enough to offset Tesla’s losses, this is a way for us to express our apologies and hope that Tesla will be considerate. "

  Tapenning frowned, and after a long time of tossing, he bought a car as compensation for Tesla?

  Eberhard looked at Xia Jingxing and negotiated with Lifan. It was the latter who proposed it, and the latter arranged the call today.

  As a result, if such a result is communicated, it is better not to communicate.

  Xia Jingxing made a gesture to signal the two of them to be safe and restless. He himself took over the leadership and started a dialogue with Yin Mingshan.

   "Mr. Yin, it's me, Xia Jingxing."

   "Mr. Xia, please tell me."

   "If Lifan and Tesla want to compete, I have a suggestion. We can unite and contribute a wonderful match to the audience."

  Yin Mingshan is puzzled. The reason why he stayed up tonight to make overseas calls with Xia Jingxing was to communicate a few words with Tesla’s management and important shareholders to resolve some misunderstandings.

  Xia Jingxing's proposal of "cooperation" at this moment made him a little confused.

   "I heard that Lifan Group has acquired several domestic football clubs. You should be familiar with the rules of football, right?"

  Yin Mingshan frowned, what does this mean? Let yourself play match-fixing, or call a match-fixing car?

  The old man was very cautious and began to pretend to be confused: "Mr. Xia, do you mean that each side will send eleven cars to the race?"

  This answer is truly amazing!

  Xia Jingxing knows that dealing with such old rivers and lakes requires patience, because these people will not easily confide their true thoughts.

   "If Tesla refuses to compete with Lifan Motors, Lifan will not be able to get any advertising effects."

  Yin Mingshan thought for a while, Xia Jingxing’s words are not all right, Lifan has already caught the heat. Even if Tesla does not compete with them in the end, no one will challenge Lifan, but the advertising effect has not been maximized.

  The old man did not express his opinions easily, and continued to patiently listen to Xia Jingxing's speech.

  "And if our two sides cooperate, we can make the competition here beautifully and build momentum.

  Lifan motorcycles have been based in the Chinese market for many years and have long become a famous brand in China.

  But Lifan Motors has no reputation at all.

  Tesla, like you, has no reputation in the industry.

  We want to attract the attention of as many people as possible like two masters. Propaganda work is indispensable.

  The publicity work of this game in the Chinese market can be handed over to Lifan. The publicity work for the global market is handed over to Tesla.

  I invested in a video website in China called Tudou. They can cooperate with Lifan to promote the Chinese market.

  At the same time, Lifan also needs to seek the support of some traditional media forces, such as TV stations, newspapers, magazines and so on.

  Lifan, to become a brand that makes the nation proud, how can it be done without competing on the international circuit?

  Through our survey of Chinese Internet public opinion, we found that many young people have become fans of Lifan. "

   Yin Mingshan chuckled, "What about Tesla? What specific work do you do?"

   "I also have a YouTube video website with nearly 100 million users worldwide. Social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter can also help with publicity."

  Xia Jingxing smiled and said: "In short, you can rest assured that Tesla will not spare any effort in publicity.

  If we carry out the division of labor and cooperation as I said, I believe that our two participating car companies can increase their reputation. "

  Yin Mingshan repeatedly thought about Xia Jingxing’s words, and seemed to be able to pick it up.

  But he firmly believes that Tesla is the biggest winner of this cooperation, because the high probability of the game is that they will lose.

  The audience remembered the winner, who remembers the loser.

   However, Lifan loses and loses, as long as it is packaged properly, it can still move closer to the first national automobile brand.

   "Mr. Xia, what did you mean by football?"

  Yin Mingshan has not forgotten this, so he took it out and asked.

  "We were in a friendly match. Although Lifan lost, it was a very glorious loss and it was bloody!"

   Yin Mingshan continued: "Please make it clear!"

  Xia Jingxing briefly talked about his plan, and Yin Mingshan frowned.

  He had heard that foreign capitalists have no lower limit. Today, he has learned.

  Eberhard and Tarpening are also a little dumbfounded on the side, can they still play like this?

   "I need to think about it!"

  Yin Mingshan did not rashly agree to the plan, because the promise was too easy and it was not conducive to the subsequent bargaining.

"certainly!"

  Xia Jingxing said with a relaxed expression: "Just don't let us wait too long, because the spring is not far away."

   Yin Mingshan knew that the other party was reminding himself, because Lifan 520 was launched in the spring.

  The old man replied: "Don't worry, you won't delay business."

"That's good!"

   said a few more words, Xia Jingxing hung up the phone.

   "Darren, you Easterners are so scheming, you can come up with such wonderful tricks."

  As soon as he hung up, Eberhard smiled and gave Xia Jingxing a thumbs up.

   "What did I come up with?"

  Xia Jingxing glanced at the two of them, "This is what the three of us came up with, and the execution is carried out by the two of you."

  Eberhard opened his mouth, wanted to refuse, but felt inappropriate, so he nodded, expressing his willingness to take risks together and share the responsibility.

  Tappenning sighed: "There is no fair competition, it's bullshit, this is a business, a business from beginning to end."

  Xia Jingxing doesn’t have so much insight, because this is capital!
