Spring City Automobile Group has hundreds of thousands of employees.
If you include the various enterprises and institutions that rely on Spring City Automobile Group, this number will at least double.
If you include the families of these employees, the number reaches millions.
As Zhu Zhengfeng of Spring City Automobile Group, he naturally has a lot to do.
However, when Cao Yang came to Zhu Zhengfeng with the design drawings of the "Big Red Flag", he must have time.
Not only did he have time, he also set aside half a day to prepare to call the research institute and the person in charge of the Hongqi brand over to see it together and give their opinions after reading it.
"Mr. Cao, you really keep your promise and act vigorously and resolutely. You are a role model for our generation."
Zhu Zhengfeng met with Cao Yang alone in his office.
"This is something that Mr. Zhu personally asked me to do. I have to put aside all other things and devote all my energy to designing the appearance of the big red flag."
Just a polite word.
Cao Yang can also say a lot casually.
Although it feels like we have entered garbage time, the effect of polite words is sometimes very good.
Zhu Zhengfeng was very happy when he heard Cao Yang say that.
As for what actually happened, it's actually not that important.
"The performance of Hongqi Cars in recent years is indeed unsatisfactory, and the leaders are also very dissatisfied."
"I'm also under a lot of pressure, so I have to ask Mr. Cao for help."
Zhu Zhengfeng showed weakness appropriately.
There is no way, within this year, he really needs Nanshan Group to cooperate with him to bring out the big red flag.
Otherwise, his position may not be so stable.
"Mr. Zhu, I have prepared the renderings and exterior design drawings of Dahongqi."
"You can first see if you are satisfied with it and see if there is anything that needs to be adjusted."
Cao Yang knew that Zhu Zhengfeng really wanted to see the design of the big red flag, so he didn't bother with it anymore.
He took out a stack of papers directly from his handbag and unfolded them in front of Zhu Zhengfeng.
"Mr. Zhu, the Dahongqi I designed uses a silver split ratio of 1:1.414 to make the front face more solemn and in line with the Hongqi brand positioning."
“In terms of the appearance of the model, the front grille of this Dahongqi adopts a straight waterfall-style grille shape, and uses a split headlight design. The headlights will also use LED headlights like the Ziweixing. "
“Dahongqi also uses LED light strips on the outer edge of the center grille and the red flag logo in the middle, and integrates them with the LED light groups on both sides, making this car a dignified and steady oriental beauty. The feeling has increased significantly.”
“In terms of body shape, Dahongqi is also unique in taking stability and fashion into consideration.”
"From the side, the roof line of this car is very smooth, and it adopts a fastback body design. This is somewhat similar to the design language of Ziweixing."
“In addition, the chrome trim extending from the bottom of the front fender continues to the rear of the car, and is matched with large multi-spoke wheels and hidden door handles, giving Dahongqi a very luxurious feel, in line with its high-end luxury flagship car. positioning.”
"The rear part of this car is the first in the world to adopt a through-type taillight design, which stretches the lateral visual width of the vehicle and also echoes the front of the car, improving the recognition of the new car."
"This will definitely be a good selling point for Dahongqi in the future."
As soon as Cao Yang's drawings were taken out, Zhu Zhengfeng's attention was attracted.
Along with Cao Yang's eloquent explanation, Zhu Zhengfeng's expression became more and more exciting.
He is not the kind of person who has no abilities.
Otherwise, no matter how powerful the family is, they will not be able to sit in this position.
On the contrary, he is one of the earliest batch of overseas students in China, and he is definitely a highly educated person.
Whether the big red flag designed by Cao Yang is good or not can definitely be felt at a glance.
In other words, Cao Yang's level can tell you whether he is good or bad at a glance.
There is no doubt that the Dahongqi in front of you will definitely be a very classic model.
Even the current Audi A8 or Audi AL cannot compare with it.
Even the BMW 7 Series or Mercedes-Benz S-Class are not as dignified and majestic as they come.
The most important thing is that while this car looks stylish and agile, it is not at all dignified.
This is not easy.
For example, Xingchen Automobile's own Ziweixing, although its appearance is very fashionable, is slightly less dignified and solemn.
As a business car, it is somewhat not perfect.
While Cao Yang was speaking, various thoughts quickly flashed through Zhu Zhengfeng's mind.
"This Dahongqi also uses the exhaust shape of bilateral exhaust pipe decorations, which makes people fully feel the charm of its 3.0T twin-turbocharged engine."
"Of course, I know that Mr. Zhu must be very concerned about the size of this car."
"According to my opinion, since this car is the flagship model of Hongqi Sedan and the most high-end model of Spring City Motors, the size must naturally conform to its positioning."
"The length, width and height of this car are recommended to be set around 5200/1900/1500mm, which can have a slight fluctuation, and the particularly critical wheelbase must be more than 3 meters."
Although it can be seen with the naked eye, with the designer Cao Yang explaining it, the feeling must be very different.
Zhu Zhengfeng stared at the drawings for more than ten minutes. From the renderings to the more formal appearance drawings, he carefully read every picture.
During this period, he didn't say a single unnecessary word.
This attitude is definitely very correct.
"call!"
After reading all the drawings, Zhu Zhengfeng let out a sigh of relief.
Then he leaned back on the seat, and the expression on his face relaxed a lot.
"Mr. Cao is indeed the most powerful car designer in China."
"I think China TV's evaluation is completely worthy of its reputation."
Although there was an element of politeness in his words, Zhu Zhengfeng, who had finished watching The Big Red Flag, said it with great sincerity.
Spring City Automobile Group also has its own car designers, but Zhu Zhengfeng still knows what level they are and what level Cao Yang is.
Although the designers of other domestic automobile groups have their own styles, compared with the designers of Spring City Automobile Group, they are just the same.
Looking at it this way, there is really no problem at all in saying that Cao Yang is the most powerful car designer in China.
Zhu Zhengfeng even thought about whether he should cooperate with the Nanshan Group and promote the name of Cao Yang, the most powerful car designer in China.
After all, Cao Yang designed the Big Red Flag.
If Cao Yang's popularity is increased, it will definitely be beneficial to Dahongqi.
"Mr. Zhu, thank you. I'm afraid you won't like this car."
"If some people still look down upon this big red flag designed by Mr. Cao, then there won't be any car in the world that is worth looking at."
Zhu Zhengfeng took a deep breath and made a decision in his mind, "Mr. Cao, I am very satisfied with the appearance of this Dahongqi. No changes are needed. I can arrange for someone to make a clay model immediately and officially start the development of Dahongqi. "
"But besides the exterior design, do you have any suggestions for the interior?"
Cao Yang only provided pictures of the exterior. As for the interior, Zhu Zhengfeng didn't mention it before, so he naturally didn't bother with it.
"Considering the special positioning of Dahongqi, I think in addition to the standard 5-seater model, there will also be a 4-seater model for consumers to choose from."
"In addition, I think the rear seats are its top priority, so they must be chosen carefully."
“I suggest using a design with high backrest + wide shoulder extension + thick armrests, so that after passengers sit in, they can feel a wide range of support from feet to legs, to waist and shoulders. The soft and hard design should also be adjusted. It’s just right.”
"As for the central control, Nanshan Auto Parts has recently studied a 7-inch full LCD instrument panel and a 7-inch central control multimedia touch screen."
"The instrument panel and central control of this size are definitely the best among all mass-produced models."
"As for motivation, I don't need to say more."
"After equipped with Nanshan Group's 3.0T and 8AT, there is no need to frequently squeeze the power by slamming on the accelerator and raising the speed. This makes it easier to drive the car smoothly and smoothly."
“It is definitely in line with Dahongqi’s model positioning.”
Cao Yang expressed his opinions in one breath.
Zhu Zhengfeng was naturally very satisfied with this.
Soon, he called Chang Lei, director of the research institute, Xu Fei, head of the Hongqi brand, Tao Wen, director of the brand public relations department, and others to the office to admire the appearance of the big red flag.
Needless to say, everyone's reaction would only be more exaggerated than Zhu Zhengfeng's.
"Mr. Zhu, I also have a win-win publicity plan. Are you interested?"
Seeing that the atmosphere of the exchange between the two parties was very good, and the eyes of several senior officials of Spring City Automobile Group were full of goodwill when they looked at Cao Yang, Cao Yang naturally would not miss this opportunity.
"Mr. Cao, we have always admired Xingchen Motors' publicity."
"What suggestions do you have, we are all ears."
Zhu Zhengfeng is in a very good mood now. Seeing that Cao Yang has new suggestions, he is naturally willing to listen to them.
"In the past few days, an Internet company called Weibo has emerged, causing quite a shock in the IT circle."
"To be honest, this company has some relationship with our Nanshan Group, and our group also has investments in it."
"I believe that in the future Weibo will become a platform more suitable for each company's products than the four major portals."
"The renderings of Dahongqi have been released. We can use this platform to make Dahongqi become a hot news on Weibo."
"By then, Dahongqi will become popular before it is even launched, and the Weibo platform will also be able to take advantage of this opportunity to gain an additional group of customers."
When Cao Yang said this, Tao Wen beside him couldn't help but interjected: "Mr. Cao, is this Weibo also funded by Nanshan Investment?"
Obviously, Zhu Zhengfeng and others may not have any feelings about Weibo, or even heard about it.
But Tao Wen is different. She must have noticed the existence of Weibo.
"Our group company has a company that is responsible for investing in some Internet projects. It can barely be regarded as a venture capital institution."
"Weibo is a project that we are quite optimistic about, so we have invested in it."
Weibo’s ownership structure is relatively complex.
Cao Yang had people register a bunch of offshore companies to hold holdings.
Therefore, it is clearly stated that Nanshan Investment only holds 20% of the shares, and Fang Sisi holds 10%. The rest are offshore companies whose shareholders cannot be identified.
So at this time, there is no need to speak so clearly.
"Mr. Cao, since Weibo is good for our big red flag publicity, then of course I fully support it."
"Tao Bu, please draft a notice later. All subsidiaries and affiliated companies of the group must register for Weibo online."
“Then we will release the rendering of the big red flag and let everyone repost it on Weibo.”
"We must make our big red flag news become hot news on Weibo."
Zhu Zhengfeng is a smart man.
Cao Yang's proposal is indeed a win-win solution.
Weibo leveraged the power of Spring City Automobile Group to quickly expand its user base to hundreds of thousands or even millions.
Dahongqi also used Weibo as a platform to achieve certain publicity purposes.
Although he still doesn't know exactly how effective the publicity will be in the end.
However, even if there is no effect, Zhu Zhengfeng will still let people do it.
Cao Yang provided such an excellent red flag to Spring City Automobile Group, and Spring City Automobile will naturally reciprocate.
However, this reward was more intense than Cao Yang imagined.
Directly issue a notice requiring employees of subordinate companies to register and forward it.
In his previous life, Cao Yang would have hated this kind of thing.
But when he was paralyzed on himself, he felt it smelled good.
It seems that we can ask several other major customers of Nanshan Group to help promote it?
The automobile industry is a pillar industry in China. If people in the entire industry circle are using Weibo, it will definitely be very beneficial for Weibo to occupy a leading position in the industry.
Of course, the best thing is to let other OEMs experience the power of Weibo.
Let them feel the benefits of publicizing on Weibo, so as to maximize everyone's enthusiasm.
Otherwise, it would be like asking for help.
The effect will naturally be much worse.
"Mr. Zhu, thank you Spring City Auto Group for supporting Weibo. I believe Dahongqi will definitely become a classic product in the history of China Automobile."
"I think Spring City Automobile Group can also enter Weibo, and the registration and certification belong to Spring City Automobile Group's official Weibo."
"In the future, if you have any news that needs to be released, or if there is anything that needs to be dealt with externally, you can do it through this official Weibo."
"At the same time, some users can also leave messages on Weibo, allowing your company to hear the voices of some consumers as quickly as possible."
"I think this will also be a highlight of Spring City Automobile Group in the field of publicity in the future."
Cao Yang knows very well what these large state-owned enterprises care about.
It mainly allows them to achieve more results in reporting to their superiors, and their enthusiasm is definitely very high.
Sure enough, after Zhu Zhengfeng heard this, he agreed without any hesitation.
He even said that he would personally register a real-name account and express some of his views on the automobile industry.
This can be considered an unexpected surprise.
After all, if Zhu Zhengfeng registered such a real-name account, other industry leaders would probably follow suit.
Although they cannot compare with celebrities in terms of attracting ordinary Internet names.
But in the automotive industry, or for netizens who are interested in cars, following their Weibo accounts is definitely a routine operation.
