Chapter 2190 A seed was planted

In 1999, China's total population had reached 1.2 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 also 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 1980s, 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 1999, 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 frowned and said.

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 directly have a 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 anything 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 able to overwhelm Volvo, are luxury brands, 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 predicted for a long time.

Coupled with its huge population base, some people have long been interested in 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 no longer so firm.

"Yes, so we came to the door. Our Qiuhai Group is confident to help Volvo Group expand sales in China. We even want to cooperate with Volvo to create some transcendent cars."

"The Volvo Cars brand is well-known by everyone. We at Qiuhai Group don't like to make good use of others. Only by joining forces can we have a bright future."

Chen Jianghai said lightly, then paused for a moment, carefully observing 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 his cooperation with Chen Jianghai, but his decision to sell Volvo to Ford.

As Chen Jianghai said, after Volvo Cars is sold to Ford, it will also take advantage of the opportunity 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 germinate, 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 naturally introduced Wang Yadi, "This is Mr. Wang, the president of China BYD Group."

, we are 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 already 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.

Moreover, 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, the only reason I talk about building some transcendental cars is actually the purpose is very simple, that is, I want to build electric cars.

This concept may have been envisioned by major automobile companies, but due to various reasons, it is difficult to realize."

"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."

"According to my inference, if we want to solve these problems, we may not be able to do it within fifty years."

Chen Jianghai disagreed with Handi's conclusion.

Can he still not know this situation?

Let alone fifty years, next year, or even at the end of this year, there will be an upsurge in the development of fuel cell vehicles!
