Chapter 34
Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control,
Lu Yan could only lead a group of emotional media back to the exhibition hall.
The deserted exhibition hall where Hongqi was originally located was now crowded with people.
Not only that, but many passers-by who didn’t know why were rushing here to join in the fun.
At the same time, other exhibition halls were also affected.
Mercedes-Benz exhibition hall, BMW exhibition hall, Audi Volkswagen Porsche exhibition hall, Japanese exhibition hall, etc.
Many official employees looked at the crowd that kept gathering in one direction with a confused look.
Some of them were sitting inside the exhibition hall and didn’t notice the lively movement of the track outside.
“???”
“What is going on? ?”
“Hiss… that seems to be a showroom of a domestic car company?!”
“Is there something wrong with this? Why are domestic cars so attractive?”
“I want to know what’s going on, too.”
……
In addition to the crowd at the auto show, the number of viewers in the live broadcast room is also increasing.
The test performance beats Tesla in the face, and the appearance is so domineering and perfect. It is simply the dream car of many people at first sight!!
“This car is really beautiful!”
“Not only the outside, but also the inside!”
“A range of 2,000 kilometers, this should be the world’s first hybrid system, right? How did Hongqi come up with this? ?”
“Anyone know how much this car will sell for?”
“I don’t know, it should be expensive, it looks very high-end!!”
……
After seeing the car, these people were quite satisfied.
But being satisfied was useless, as Hongqi had not yet announced the price.
They were eager to know the price of the car and could not wait any longer.
“Mr. Lu, how much does this car cost?”
“Can you please announce the price soon? We can’t wait!!”
“”Yes, yes, announce the price quickly!” someone shouted.
Lu Yan looked at the excited crowd and said calmly:
“Everyone, please be patient.”
“Next, I would like to introduce our body material technology and the unique filtration system installed on it.……”
But below, they couldn’t wait any longer.
Someone immediately took over.
“Don’t introduce it yet, let’s announce the price first, and then we can listen to it slowly after the price is announced!!”
“Yes, I’m really curious about how much this car costs.”
“Announce it first, and then we will listen slowly after it is announced!!”
……
Lu Yan was a little confused.
What to say.
Why so anxious?
He really hadn’t finished the introduction.
But the auto show was different from the press conference, and there was no fixed process.
Faced with these people’s requests and the excitement of the crowd, Lu Yan could only sigh slightly and satisfy the public’s curiosity first, otherwise it would be difficult to continue with such a noise.
“Well, I can announce the price of this car first, but you must be mentally prepared.
Frankly speaking, the cost of the Hongqi S9 is still a bit high, but it is definitely worth the money.
Lu Yan himself believes that among cars of the same price, even if the price is doubled, there is no rival.
When Lu Yan spoke, the audience couldn’t help but hold their breath and waited quietly for the announcement.
“The price of the Hongqi S9 is one million.”
Lu Yan said.
This sentence made the whole audience silent!
Then, after a second or two, there was a huge uproar!
Although they were curious about the price, they didn’t expect that Hongqi would be priced so high!
This was unexpected.
“hiss……”
“one million?!”
“?”
“It’s too floating!”
“This car is so big and its exterior design is so powerful. It is normal to sell it for 500,000 or 800,000 yuan, but for one million yuan, isn’t Hongqi a bit confident? This is a domestically produced car!”
“One million, isn’t that the same price as the MODELX just mentioned? ?”
“this……!”
“This car is good, but one million is really too much. What’s the difference between Hongqi doing this and selling luxury goods?”
……
People who heard the price couldn’t help but question it in their hearts.
Although there are many imported luxury cars that cost one million or even several million.
Many people think it’s normal for Porsche and Mercedes to sell for one million.
But when this price is compared with domestic cars, they subconsciously think it’s not worth it. Can domestic cars really afford such a price?
Lu Yan saw the change in everyone’s face at the first time, and he immediately said:
“Regarding this selling price, please understand that this is really our cost price. To be honest, at this price, we can’t make much money by selling a car.……”
Lu Yan explained immediately.
He also knew.
The attitude of the Chinese people towards domestic cars can be seen from the materials used in this car, those aviation special steels and aviation special aluminum materials, and polymer glass.
The cost alone has already accounted for a huge cost. Their profit for a car is only a dozen percent, and they are also responsible for after-sales service.
Unlike other imported luxury cars, a million-level car can easily make 60% profit. Lu Yan’s tone was very sincere, but it was not the case when heard by everyone present. Not only did all the media on the scene look weird. Even the entire live broadcast room exploded!
“???”
“What? What did he say? ? A car priced at one million is still sold at cost price? Still not making much money? ?”
“Damn! That’s so damn funny!!”
“To be honest, is this red flag really flying? How can we support it with this pricing? It’s too heartless!”
“Yes, even if this car is a mysterious test car and its performance is better than Tesla’s flagship car, the price is really outrageous.……”
“If this car costs 500,000 or 600,000 yuan, I will definitely buy one, but at a price of one million yuan, I would rather buy a Mercedes-Benz or a Porsche!!”
