Rebirth of the American Super Boss Road

"10 computers... okay." After hearing Li Hongfei say that he would purchase 10 TRS-80s in his store even if the cooperation could not be achieved, and had already purchased two from him before, Scott's glasses suddenly His attitude suddenly changed: "Sir, Frank just told me that you are engaged in computer training. Can I go and have a look?"

Scott was not stupid. If the other party was really engaged in computer technical training and could purchase so many computers at one time, of course he would hug this big thick leg hard.

Looking at the cooperation between the teaching aid industry and the book industry, you will know how much it can boost the sales of your store if you can connect with a computer training institution;

As for other benefits, such as improving the status of Tandy/RadioShack in the hearts of students through a subtle influence on them, this is not something that a small store manager like me should care about. I only care about sales.

There is really nothing better than showing off your strength first. Li Hongfei smiled, nodded happily and said, "Of course it's no problem, I can do it at any time."

Scott asked tentatively: "How about now?"

If you go now, the other party will have no defense, right?

Li Hongfei said with a smile: "Of course, you are welcome."

........................

When he came to the parking lot and saw Li Hongfei's Ford Escort, Frank's eyelids couldn't help but trembled twice: Are you going to drive this thing?

Scott also didn't expect that Li Hongfei would drive such a small car. Look at his 5.4-meter-long, 2-meter-wide Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme two-door, four-seat COUPE sedan, and then look at Li Hongfei's car, which is only about Scott smacked his lips at the Ford Escort, which was just over 4 meters tall. He suddenly had doubts about Li Hongfei's strength - if Li Hongfei hadn't made it clear, he would have purchased 10 TRS-80s regardless of whether the cooperation between the two parties could be achieved. Scott was ready to give up on the trip.

Scott didn't know what to say for a moment, and finally choked out: "Daniel, it's time for you to change your car."

This is the second time in the past few days that someone has told me that it’s time to change cars...

Li Hongfei nodded: "Thank you, I think so too. This car does not fit the image of a start-up company. I have been looking at the car these days."

"Oh?"

Hearing Li Hongfei say that he was looking at cars recently, Scott's interest arose and he asked enthusiastically: "What car are you going to buy? A sports car?"

"I buy a car to win the trust of my partners and students, so sports cars are better," Li Hongfei shook his head and said, "Maybe I will buy a sports car for fun in the future, but for now, it is still a classic one that is more suitable for business." The image-like sedan is more in line with my usage requirements..."

Speaking of this, Li Hongfei glanced at Scott's Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme and said, "I think GM's cars are good. Whether it's your Oldsmobile, Buick or Pontiac, they all suit me very well." This kind of start-up enterprise will neither appear too showy and leave a bad impression on customers when it goes out to discuss business, nor will it be looked down upon by others because it is too low-key. It will also be calm enough to impress customers. Enough trust.”

Li Hongfei's words made Scott's favorable impression of Li Hongfei improve a lot. He nodded: "Yes, since you plan to do business, you should really choose a car with a more business image. Buick or Chevrolet are both good, so do I." Prepare to change to a Chevrolet Malibu (Malibu/Maibu)..."

After 2015, the Chevrolet brand was ruined by General Motors in China and became the last among GM's three major brands: Chevrolet, Buick and Cadillac. However, in the United States now, the Chevrolet brand is actually a serious brand. It is a mid-range and upper-class brand, and the Chevrolet Malibu sedan, which has a long history and is named after the famous Malibu beach in the United States, has become the first choice for many high-income middle-class families in the United States. Scott is planning to convert his Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Switching to the Chevrolet Malibu is almost the epitome of the replacement of American middle-class family cars throughout the 70s.

"Then you have to start as soon as possible," Li Hongfei said with a smile: "The newspaper said that because of the oil shortage and the Energy Policy and Energy Conservation Act, automobile manufacturers must increase fuel efficiency to 18 miles this year. /gallon (about 13 liters/100 kilometers), now General Motors, Ford and Chrysler are all preparing to update their models and comprehensively reduce body size and engine displacement,"

Speaking of this, Li Hongfei glanced at Scott's Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme again, and then said: "I read in the newspaper that the new cars that the three major automobile groups will launch soon will have an overall reduction in body size, basically from now on. The 5.5 to 5.9 meters have been reduced to just over 5 meters, and the engine has to be replaced with a small-displacement V6 engine.

Although I have not seen reports about the new generation Chevrolet Malibu, I think the body size will be greatly reduced.so……"

Speaking of this, Li Hongfei looked at Scott and said with a smile: "Mr. Scott, if you plan to change your car, you'd better change it as soon as possible... If the body size is not large enough, what is the difference between Malibu and RB cars?" ?”

Although Scott had read similar reports in newspapers before, he had never thought about the relationship. Now when he heard Li Hongfei say this, his expression became serious: "Daniel, are you telling the truth? Will the body size of the new generation Chevrolet Malibu really be significantly reduced? Will the engine also use a V6?"

Although the American engines of this period had huge displacements and high fuel consumption, their power characteristics were very similar to those of Harley-Davidson motorcycle engines or diesel engines. The horsepower was not large, but the torque was relatively high, and the torque platform came relatively early. Take the widely used 3.8-liter V6 naturally aspirated engine of General Motors as an example. With a displacement of up to 3.8 liters, it finally exploded into a maximum power of 112 horsepower. You read that right, and the author wrote it right, too. That's 112 horsepower.

相对于通用集团自家的那台最大功率162马力、最大扭矩488牛米的7.5升V8发动机而言，这台3.8升V6发动机确实只能称之为“小排量”了。

Scott also agreed with Li Hongfei's statement. He thought about it and nodded seriously: "Daniel, you are right. We really can't wait for new models. The 5-meter car is really useless... Well, let's not talk about it for now. Let's set off. Bar."
