Shancheng City, Didi headquarters.
Zhang Feiyang, who used to be so energetic in the past, has been a little frustrated recently.
Not long after returning from the "Moto Show", rumors spread from Didi's headquarters that the top management was dissatisfied with him for supporting Phoenix at the auto show.
Zhang Feiyang originally didn't care when he heard the news, but in the past two months, he has noticed that he is slowly being marginalized.
In terms of work content, not only many meetings and matters that originally required his attendance were skipped directly by him.
Moreover, even the external export sales that he had been in charge of were replaced by another boss at the headquarters, Mr. Xu.
Zhang Feiyang looked outside the office, a little distracted.
"boss Zhang……"
"Last month's sales data are out, please take a look."
The secretary gently put the statistical report on her desk. She had heard rumors about the company for a long time, and it was widely spread that Mr. Zhang Feiyang was about to be transferred as the general manager of the Southwest Area.
"okay!"
Zhang Feiyang came back to his senses, picked up the report and looked down at it.
As he watched, the secretary said briskly:
"Mr. Zhang, our sales in the southwest region have increased steadily this month, and the data far exceeds that of other brands. This proves that your strategy is right!"
Zhang Feiyang smiled and said nothing.
After the launch of Phoenix "Rainbow", especially in the southwest region, all electric scooter brands were greatly impacted, and the market was crazily occupied by Phoenix.
Fortunately, after returning from the "Moto Show", Phoenix stopped selling the 1,988 yuan "Rainbow", which made various brands in the industry breathe a sigh of relief.
However, everyone knew that Phoenix would definitely launch new models, so they breathed a sigh of relief and began to launch their own sales strategies.
Didi's strategy for the southwest region was formulated by Zhang Feiyang, and so far, the results are good.
Not only has the share been stabilized, sales have also increased!
After reading the sales data in his hand, Zhang Feiyang couldn't help but smile.
He put down the report and happened to hear the secretary say something.
"By the way, Mr. Zhang..."
"Huh? What's wrong?"
The secretary hesitated to speak. After thinking for a moment, he finally spoke.
"I just secretly took a look at our foreign sales data for the last quarter, and the sales data for the last quarter actually hit a new high."
"That's it, the headquarters still transferred you..."
Zhang Feiyang had just heard half of what he was saying and interrupted with a smile.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. I stopped being in charge of external sales last week!"
The secretary sighed inwardly, a little aggrieved that someone as capable and charismatic as Mr. Zhang Feiyang would be marginalized by the headquarters.
Why!
Mr. Zhang just supported the Phoenix Factory abroad, but what about it?
The secretary felt it was a pity and suddenly thought of another incident at the Phoenix Factory.
She hesitated for a moment, then said it.
"Mr. Zhang, do you know that Phoenix Factory is preparing to enter shared electric vehicles?"
"They are recruiting people aggressively and have also established Phoenix Car Sharing Company. It is probably true!"
Phoenix car sharing?
Zhang Feiyang was a little surprised.
Recently, he has been busy with the company's affairs and has not paid too much attention to other things.
At this moment, he was surprised and sighed in his heart, the Phoenix Factory was really devastated!
How long has it been since I entered the electric motorcycle industry, and now I’m involved in new energy vehicles!
Zhang Feiyang sighed inwardly, took out his phone and was about to congratulate him, but hesitated after a moment.
He pondered for a moment and put the phone back again.
Nowadays, there are rumors about the company, so I would like to congratulate you in person if you have the opportunity!
…
Just when Zhang Feiyang was facing a career crisis, Hu Lai was making good progress.
The small production maintenance platform purchased from Yema Factory has been installed.
Hundreds of new energy vehicles have also been moved from the parking lot to the newly leased industrial park and are undergoing a new transformation by the New Energy Business Department.
Shancheng City deserves to be called the capital of automobiles and motorcycles.
When the news came out that 500 new energy vehicles were being retrofitted in Phoenix, a large number of auto parts suppliers came to visit.
Phoenix entered the automobile industry for the first time, and the interim manager Li Kenan was not familiar with these matters, so he was at a loss for a while.
The most troublesome thing is that because the output of Snail new energy vehicles is extremely small, most of the original parts have been discontinued and most parts have to be re-customized.
After Hu Lai personally took over the matter, it took him a few days to slowly straighten it out. Finally, he chose a company called "Hammer Auto Parts Company" to sign a purchase agreement.
Hammer Auto Parts Company is not large in scale, and the machinery processing factory only has about ten people.
Boss Wang Tiechui was a production worker at Bosch, the world's largest auto parts company, and later started his own business and founded Hammer Auto Parts Company.
Wang Tiechui's seriousness, persistence and responsibility moved Hu Lai, and after careful consideration, he decided to give him the spare parts production order for 500 new energy vehicles.
After finishing the matching order, Hu Lai did not feel relaxed.
Only after he really came into contact with the automobile industry did he realize that building a car is really not a simple matter.
There are so many technologies involved in vehicle production!
Even new energy vehicles require chassis technology, suspension adjustment, safety design, human-computer interaction, as well as motor and battery technologies.
Moreover, these are just the basics of building a car.
After having the foundation for building a car, the next step is to control the quality control and failure rate of mass-produced cars!
Each car is assembled from tens of thousands of parts. How to ensure that every new car reaches factory quality is a huge test!
I feel like I have a headache just thinking about it.
What Phoenix can currently offer is battery control technology!
Others are blank.
Although there is also Blue Sky motor control technology, Snail New Energy itself is only a T0-level car.
Just like an ordinary 1.0L displacement car, if you upgrade it to a 1.2 displacement, the actual use will not change much.
Phoenix's unique "future operating system" is also due to the "computing power platform" (primary level). After loading electronic control and motor technology, other intelligent configurations are completely unusable.
Hu Lai looked at the first phase of the investment report in front of him and found out that the New Energy Business Department had invested 100 million just by looking at it briefly.
"Don't rush to build a car!"
“Let’s rely on Phoenix Sharing Cars first and let the team of the New Energy Business Department grow up!”
He put down the report and already had a plan in mind.
Recruiting talents, building a team, and reserving technology are the top priorities of the New Energy Division!
After thinking about this clearly, Hu Lai's thoughts returned to "Rainbow".
Recently, there has been a lot of discussion on the Internet about Phoenix's delay in launching new models, and many netizens have been maliciously smearing Phoenix for export.
The road test of the new "Rainbow" has ended a few days ago, and the next step is to register and arrange production capacity.
It's time to launch!
Thinking of this, a smile suddenly appeared on Hu Lai's lips, and he thought of Zhang Feiyang.
Zhang Feiyang supported Phoenix at the auto show, and Hu Lai always remembered it.
I don’t know how Zhang Feiyang will respond after he launches the new Rainbow.
Hu Lai closed his eyes and couldn't help but think about it for a second. Suddenly, a familiar voice came from his mind:
"boss!"
It was Yi Yi's voice.
"It's been a long time since I heard Yi Yi's voice, and I actually had an auditory hallucination!"
Hu Lai smiled bitterly, but the moment he opened his eyes, Yi Yi was actually right in front of him.
"Yiyi!"
