Rebirth: Return to 1991 to be the richest man

Chapter 2190 A seed was planted

In 99, China's total population had reached 12 billion. This terrifying number was often reported by Western media. Handy also understood this. After all, this was a superpower that accounted for one-fifth of the world's population.

"Therefore, China's market will become extremely huge, and you don't need to question it."

Chen Jianghai said calmly and casually signaled to Luo Hao that he could continue.

Luo Hao also understood it and immediately said: "Mr. Handy, what I want to tell you is how fast China is developing. Can you imagine that in China ten years ago, there were not many cars on the road?"

In the 80s, China had just emerged from the turmoil, and a reform began to drive a huge torrent.

In that era, everyone was so poor that they could only have a meal of meat during the New Year and the holidays, let alone own a car.

Most cars are state-owned assets, and private cars are probably rare products.

But with the development of the times, cars are no longer a novel product on the streets in 99, and even some middle-class families already own first-tier luxury brand cars.

Luo Hao explained these situations carefully. Handy listened with a little more impatience on his face. He was not here to listen to others tell how China developed.

Although through these things, Handy did understand China's progress.

But does this have anything to do with his problem?
"Chen, I don't think these have much to do with our Volvo."

Handy said with a frown.

He looked at Chen Jianghai and skipped over Luo Hao. This move made Luo Hao feel very aggrieved and he swallowed back all the words he had just thought out.

Europeans have their own pride, and they don’t want to hear other people brag about how good other people’s countries are.

Chen Jianghai raised his eyebrows, Luo Hao used the wrong method.

Now we should have a direct showdown with Handy, grasp Handy's psychology, and make him recognize that the Chinese market cannot be told stories, but facts!
"Mr. Handy, do you know about China's automobile market?"

Chen Jianghai is not a passive person, he likes to take the initiative.He didn't want to answer Handy's question and wanted Handy to take the initiative to think about his purpose.

This European gentleman also has his own arrogance, but Chen Jianghai just wants him to bow his head.

“I don’t have any specific understanding of this.”

"Although we also sell Volvo in China, we are really not optimistic about China's automobile business."

Handy spread his hands and said, but Chen Jianghai followed closely: "Mitsubishi, Toyota, Nissan, these island-country cars, or some Korean cars have begun to target the Chinese market."

“Even Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Audi, which are currently the luxury brands that can overwhelm Volvo, and even some sports car brands, have set their sights on China.”

"I think their choice will be more convincing than mine."

Chen Jianghai's words are true. China's development has actually been anticipated for a long time.

Coupled with the huge population base, people have already started to take advantage of this big piece of cake. However, Volvo failed to clarify its goals, so it wanted to let it go.

"Now that your Volvo car brand has chosen to be sold to Ford, what do you think Ford will do then?"

Chen Jianghai continued to ask.

Handy took a deep breath. He could not deny what Chen Jianghai said. At the same time, he also understood that even Ford would set his sights on China. The first person to eat this piece of cake will always be the first to enjoy it.

"I guess Ford will also develop the Chinese market."

Handy smiled and shook his head, his tone less firm.

"Yes, so we came to the door. Our Qiuhai Group is confident in helping the Volvo Group expand sales in China. Even our Qiuhai Group wants to cooperate with Volvo to create some cross-generation cars." "The Volvo car brand is well-known. We at the Qiuhai Group don’t like to make up for the mistakes, only by joining forces can we have a bright future.”

Chen Jianghai said lightly, and then paused for a moment. He carefully observed Handy's facial expression.

From what he said just now, it can be seen that Handy was hesitant, and his thoughts began to waver.

Perhaps it was not the cooperation with Chen Jianghai, but the desire to sell Volvo cars to Ford.

As Chen Jianghai said, after Volvo Cars is sold to Ford, it will also take advantage of the momentum to enter the Chinese market. By then, this matter will have little to do with the Volvo Group headquarters. What can they do?

But if they take the initiative to enter the Chinese market, then the benefits will appear in the hands of the Volvo Group.

Wang Yadi and Luo Hao looked at each other and could see some joy in each other's eyes.

It was obvious that Handy was moved by Chen Jianghai's words. Chen Jianghai was not excited. He just planted a seed in Handy's heart.

As for whether this seed can take root and sprout, I'm afraid it still needs further watering.

"Chen, what did you mean when you said you wanted to build some cars that transcend the times?"

Handy did not continue the topic just now, but jumped to catch a word in Chen Jianghai's words.

"Mr. Handi, please allow me to introduce you to Mr. Wang Yadi."

Chen Jianghai laughed. He deliberately bought a bait and waited for Handi to take the bait. Sure enough, the fish bit the bait. Chen Jianghai introduced Wang Yadi out as a matter of course, "This President Wang is the president of China BYD Group." , is engaged in new energy business.”

"In terms of new energy?"

Handy was stunned, this was a bit tall.

It's just that new energy is divided into several areas. Who knows which field he is from? Chen Jianghai followed, "He is a professional in battery technology."

Wang Yadi was a little shy when he heard Chen Jianghai's introduction, but when facing Handi, he changed his previous nervousness and extended his hand in a friendly manner to shake Handy's hand.

"Chen, you always like to answer questions you don't know."

Handy said with a smile, but he seemed to have guessed something, batteries, and cars. This idea had appeared very early, but it was not an easy thing to realize.

At the same time, in the current environment, trams may not be accepted by the general public.

And the professional knowledge, after-sales, and more aspects involved are big problems. This is not something that can be done simply by hitting it off.

"Mr. Handy, I only talk about building some cross-generation cars. The purpose is actually very simple, that is, to build electric cars. This concept may have been made by major car companies, but due to various reasons, it is difficult to accomplish."

"Chen, you know a lot about the automotive field, even better than me." Handy nodded.

"I'm afraid the tram is not something that can be launched in a short time. It contains many key technical problems and some after-sales service issues."

"If we want to solve these problems, according to my inference, I'm afraid it won't be possible in less than 50 years."

Chen Jianghai disagreed with Handi's conclusion.

Can he still not know this situation?
Let alone 50 years, next year, or even at the end of this year, there will be an upsurge in the development of fuel cell vehicles!

Moreover, automobile manufacturers from all over the world have probably included new energy vehicles in their important plans for implementation. After all, Handy underestimated the automobile industry.
