#426 - Chapter 426: The son is the chairman of Han Teng? New car model auction! Parents show up!
2001.
There were no short video social apps.
There were no smartphones.
With nearly 1.3 billion people in China, there were only a mere 30 million internet users. Unless it was broadcast on CCTV News, news spread slowly.
Crucially,
The Tsinghua and Jiaotong University debate did not invite media.
Relying on word-of-mouth from participants, how fast could the speed be?
Where did Deng Xianjin get the news from?
His son told him!
Deng Xiaoyan had been helping his brother hide it, and after hearing about the debate through Zhao Yunjie and learning that Chen Hao had completely revealed his identity, he no longer needed to hide it—he mentioned it to his parents during a phone call today.
Initially,
Deng Xianjin refused to believe it, and Deng Xiaoyan, in a fit of anger...
...transferred 100 million to his father's account.
Telling him to spend it as he pleased.
He also claimed that he was a shareholder in the Legend game, and the largest shareholder was Chen Hao!
Deng Xianjin still didn't believe it.
He was forced by his son to check his bank account.
Upon checking,
He was almost scared to pee!
"It's true!"
Deng Xianjin grabbed Chen Fuhai: "I didn't believe it at first either, Xiaoyan transferred 100 million to me... Old Chen, what's our relationship? Would I lie to you?"
"Are you so poor that you're hallucinating? 100 million... I only earn ten thousand a month as a provincial general agent."
Chen Fuhai's voice was particularly loud, afraid others wouldn't hear him.
So,
Deng Xianjin secretly unfolded the passbook with the printed balance in front of him.
Damn!
In the next moment,
Chen Fuhai's eyeballs almost popped out.
Of course, he knew the real income of the agents.
Deng Xianjin was the city-level agent for Chuangshiji products in Jinling and was not qualified to be an agent for Shenzhou Motors.
The income wasn't low.
But to say 100 million...
Chen Fuhai hadn't even earned that much!
"You're not lying to me?!" Chen Fuhai asked blankly.
"Have you ever thought about..."
Deng Xianjin said with a bitter face: "Why did they give you the general agency rights in Su Province? Why you? Also! Why is their head of the East China region so respectful to you, an agent? Think about it!"
Chen Fuhai was dumbfounded.
That's right!
Now, combining the news brought by his old brother and thinking back on all the details...
It was too unreasonable!
Back then, Chuangshiji took the initiative to find him and asked him to be an SP4 agent, offering to deliver the goods first and pay after selling them.
Who had ever heard of such cooperation?
If it was said that initially, Chuangshiji didn't have much reputation, so they gave generous franchise conditions.
How to explain it later?
Chuangshiji's reputation grew bigger and bigger.
Countless people took their passbooks wanting to be agents.
At that time...
Still deliver the goods first and pay later?
Still begging you to be an agent?
"Wife!"
Chen Fuhai rushed to the cashier: "Let's go! To Shanghai!"
"Are you crazy?"
Li Lan shook him off, her voice equally loud: "We lost so much money before when there were no cars in stock. Now that there are cars in stock, you're not doing business and going to Shanghai? Chen Fuhai, are you drunk?!"
"Wife!"
Chen Fuhai whispered in his wife's ear: "Our son... is the chairman of Hanteng Capital!"
"Are you really drunk?" Li Lan was surprised.
Old thing!
Secretly drinking during the day?
...
The first four models of Shenzhou Motors' vehicles had their technical data auctioned off by Toyota, Volkswagen, and General Motors respectively.
How many large car companies are there in the world?
Honda.
Ford.
Hyundai.
Anyway, there are many!
The previous auction of the four models had caused serious cash flow consumption for the three major companies.
This time, other car companies saw the opportunity.
MPVs and luxury SUVs have a relatively smaller audience, but they are better than nothing.
The most important point!
Once there is technical data, reverse engineering can be done.
In the near future, many technologies can be applied to models other than these two.
In short!
After Toyota, Volkswagen, and General Motors were unlikely to participate in the auction, other car companies were eyeing it covetously.
The day after Chen Hao issued the instructions.
The Su Province 4S stores, which were in Jinling with Shenzhou Motors headquarters, were the first to start selling cars in stock.
The third day.
Shanghai, Hefei, and Hangzhou 4S stores started selling.
Transportation takes time.
The closer to Shenzhou Motors headquarters, the sooner you can get the cars in stock.
Representatives of various car companies in China bought the cars in stock as soon as possible and began performance testing.
Third day evening.
Calls were successively made to Hanteng Capital headquarters.
Chen Hao didn't want to wait even a minute.
Fourth day.
Morning.
Enter the auction process!
This time, Chen Hao came to the scene in person.
"Hyundai Kia Group, bid 10.3 billion US dollars!"
"Is there a higher price?"
The model has a relatively small audience. The starting price of this MPV is only a mere 6 billion US dollars.
Neither the price increase nor the final transaction price can be too high.
Toyota, Volkswagen, and General Motors also sent representatives.
It's just...
They didn't bid throughout the whole process.
They were purely worried whether these two models would pose a threat.
Toyota Akio had less hatred for Chen Hao.
As Chen Hao said last time, compared with the models Toyota had bought, there was almost no overlap in the audience, so there was no need to worry too much.
Suddenly!
Xia Qingyan walked to Chen Hao's side: "Liu Zhi is here."
"Oh?"
Chen Hao grinned: "Does he look very happy?"
"He looks mocking." Xia Qingmo pouted.
"Then let him leave with despair."
Although he came to the auction site, he was not responsible for the auction.
It's the same whether he's here or not.
"Congratulations to Renault Nissan for winning the 1PV model!"
"The auction of the two new cars is over. Please go to Renault Nissan and Ford to sign the contract and pay."
"This way, please!"
This was the last sentence Chen Hao heard before leaving.
The auction officially ended.
The two cars totaled 22.7 billion US dollars.
Obviously.
It was much worse than last time.
Last time, the price of the entry-level sedan alone was as high as 37 billion US dollars!
The larger the audience, the higher the price.
It is rare to win 22.7 billion US dollars for MPVs and high-end SUVs.
After all...
The R\u0026D cost is negligible.
Just change the shell.
...
Chen Hao and Xia Qingyan went straight to the reception room.
Liu Zhi must be very proud, right?
Soon.
He won't be able to be proud!
"Chairman Chen!"
Before reaching the reception room, Lu Qingshan ran over quickly, with a flustered expression: "That... your parents are here."
Chen Hao was stunned.
Being forced to reveal his identity at the debate meant that his parents would know sooner or later.
It's just...
I didn't expect it to be so fast.
I thought that with the current speed of news dissemination, it might take ten days or half a month—I would go back to Jinling after finishing these few days and explain it by the way.
Ten minutes later.
Chen Fuhai and Li Lan appeared in front of him.
When I saw Xia Qingyan...
Seeing her standing next to her son...
Need I say more?
"Is it... all true?" Chen Fuhai asked.
"Yes." Chen Hao smiled sheepishly.
"You bastard!"
Chen Fuhai suddenly exploded: "How dare you lie to me..."
"You lied to me and said that an SP4 earned ten yuan." Chen Hao pouted.
"No..." Chen Fuhai was dumbfounded.
"You also lied to me and said that you only earned two yuan for supplying goods to lower-level agents."
"I..."
"Mom."
Chen Hao turned the spearhead again: "How much dividend did you give me from that million-dollar bonus?"
