Chapter 295 Successful Bidding
Do some public relations?

Zhang Xiang looked at Zhou Fei with some doubts. Obviously, he didn't understand what Zhou Fei meant.

"It is to gain the support of the public opinion, so that those who are in charge of purchasing the official vehicles understand what it means that public opinion cannot be violated." Seeing Zhang Xiang's puzzled expression, Zhou Fei explained with a smile.

This point is essentially different from what Zhang Xiang said about managing the relationship. As long as Audi can gain support from the public, the relevant departments will not dare to have a very obvious bias.

"So that's what it means. Mr. Zhou is going to announce the news of our participation in the bidding?" Zhang Xiang suddenly realized and nodded.

"Well, it will be announced sooner or later anyway. Announcing it before the bidding can also win us a relatively loose public opinion environment." Zhou Fei nodded.

"Then I know, I will perfect this plan again."

On April 4th, there are only five days left before the deadline for bidding proposal submission, and Mercedes-Benz also officially announced on this day that the Audi A25 under the Mercedes-Benz Company will participate in the government's high-end official car competition. bidding.

And just as Zhou Fei expected, this news soon aroused strong reactions in the society. From the media to the public, they basically supported the selection of the Audi A4.

"Audi A4 participates in the official car competition, and the opportunity for domestic luxury cars to turn around has come!"

"Audi A4 VS Lufeng H4: A duel between feelings and strength, this time, who will have the last laugh?"

"The era of nationalization of official vehicles is coming?"

In addition to the media, many netizens also expressed their views.

"Of course I support the Audi A4. Why should the official vehicles of our government be given over to foreign brands?"

"Audi A4 is the best choice for the government in terms of emotion and reason!"

"As long as there are no tricks, the final bid will definitely be the Audi A4!"

"If the government chooses the Lufeng H4 instead of the Audi A4 this time, we will be disappointed!"

"The Lufeng H4 is about to be turned into scum in seconds. How can it be compared with the Audi A4?"

And in a poll launched online, Audi A4 was voted by netizens as "the most suitable model for high-end official vehicles" with a support rate of more than 90.00%!
It can be said that in terms of public opinion, Mercedes-Benz has completely won at the starting line. From the perspective of feelings, Audi is a national luxury car brand, and Huaxia should support it. From the perspective of price and performance, Audi is even better than Lufeng. In this regard, the government It should be supported even more.

So no matter from which aspect, there is no reason not to choose the Audi A4!
Zhou Fei's move caught Falcao off guard. He never expected that Zhou Fei would use the method of "kidnapping public opinion" to increase his chances of winning the bid!
But for Chunqi Group, Zhu Zhijun has made it clear that he will not "go any further", so now Falcao can only hope that the brand Lufeng can impress the relevant departments.

As for Feichi Company, after announcing the news, it did not take any further action. It was just concentrating on preparing the bidding plan. After the joint efforts of all staff, Feichi Company finally submitted its bid on the 29th. bidding scheme.

Next, it depends on how the government is elected.

As one of the heads of the Office of the Leading Group of Official Vehicles, Xu Bohua is really entangled now, and even feels like riding a tiger. In the procurement of official vehicles, the most important thing is the high-end official vehicles used by high-ranking officials. Before this year, this purchase was actually the easiest, because there was only Lufeng H4 as an option.

But this year, Cheng Yaojin suddenly came out, and the just-released Audi A4 suddenly announced that he would participate in the bidding, which brought difficulties to Xu Bohua.

Some time ago, Zhu Zhijun from Chunqi Group called him. Although he didn’t speak directly, Xu Bohua could hear the meaning, so he gave some promises verbally. At that time, he was still curious and didn’t understand why Zhu Zhijun would Call yourself suddenly.

Now Xu Bohua understood completely. It turned out that Chunqi had already noticed that Mercedes-Benz would also participate in the bidding.

"This Zhu Zhijun will really give me problems." Xu Bohua looked at the bidding proposal submitted by Feichi Company, and said to himself helplessly.

From the perspective of personal preference, Xu Bohua naturally thinks that Audi A4 is a better choice, but Lufeng H4 is a product of Chunqi Dafeng.

With a national brand on the one hand and a state-owned enterprise on the other, coupled with the comments on the Internet, Xu Bohua is really very difficult to do now.

"Old Xu, what's the trouble with this? Since it's an open bidding, follow the normal process. Whoever offers the lowest bid will win the bid. Why do you care about the rest?"

Wang Zhou, who is also one of the heads of the procurement team, said from the side.

"If it was as simple as you said, it would be fine. If I choose Feichi, and say that I don't support state-owned enterprises, choose Chunqi Dafeng, and say that I don't support national brands, it's really uncomfortable to be caught in the middle. Xu Bohua replied with a wry smile.

"I'll just say you're overthinking. Follow the procedure and don't worry about the rest. As long as the process is legal and reasonable, and the result is fair and just, you don't care what others say. Besides, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Audi A4 is the best. The best choice, don’t put a good state-owned luxury car, why choose Lufeng, is it true that the moon in foreign countries is rounder?”

Wang Zhou said angrily.

"It is true that Chunqi Dafeng is a state-owned enterprise, but Chunqi Group only holds 60% of the shares, and it is not a 100% state-owned enterprise. You don't hope that one day, all the cars running on the roads of our country are national brand cars. ? Forgot how foreign countries laughed at us, but did IWC take off its hat?"

Seeing that Xu Bohua was silent, Wang Zhou continued.

The name "Wanguo Automobile" is definitely the biggest pain point of the older generation of automakers. This is the phenomenon that the West ridiculed the backwardness of China's auto industry and drove all the auto brands from all over the world.

"Then you mean to choose the Audi A4?" Xu Bohua asked.

"I didn't say that, I just said, according to the procedure, in a fair and just competition, whoever should be!" Wang Zhou waved his hands quickly.

"Then you are the same as taking off your pants and farting. If the bidding is fair and just, there will be nothing to do with Lu Feng. Audi must be selected!"

"Then it's over, what are you still struggling with?" Wang Zhou gave him a blank look and said angrily.

Xu Bohua gritted his teeth, "Okay, then I don't care about other things, just follow the procedure, I'm tired of seeing Lufeng H4 wandering around in the department all the time, it's time to change to another car!"
