Seeing that Mr. Chu Heng, a mysterious wizard, was willing to understand his affairs, the man could not help but feel happy, and he immediately poured out the whole story like beans from a bamboo tube.
"You should also know that the mainstream models of Citi and even the European and American automobile industries are muscle cars. They pursue large displacement, high horsepower, and exaggerated styling. These cars are full of useless designs and do not consider comfort at all.
and practicality.”
"But my design concept focuses on energy saving, economy, comfort, etc. This is exactly the opposite of the mainstream concept, and it is not recognized by the company's board of directors, so I was kicked out."
The man shrugged, with a look of helplessness on his face: "Not only does the board of directors not agree with my concept, but the investors are also not optimistic about it. As you can see, I have visited many people, but no one is willing to invest in me."
"Sorry, forgive me for being unreasonable." After hearing his words, a middle-aged man standing next to Chu Heng interjected with some surprise: "I understand your pursuit of comfort and economy, but why should you pay attention to energy conservation?
?Although I am a layman, I can roughly understand that if you choose to save energy, you will lose power. Now that oil is not that expensive, who would be willing to buy such a slow car just to save some negligible oil money?
"
Men have heard too many questions about this kind of question. After all, the mainstream of European and American cars now is to work hard to create miracles.
Energy saving?
Same joke.
Who would consider this issue when faced with oil, which is only slightly more expensive than water.
"Yes, sir, it seems that considering energy saving is indeed a design that is not suitable for the public at present." Faced with the doubt, the man replied calmly: "But what I am looking at is not now, the market I am targeting is in the future."
"I don't know if you have paid attention to the current international situation. Now the oil-producing countries are very dissatisfied with the extremely low price of US$80 per barrel, which is only half the price of coal, and have been asking for price increases. But the oil companies have not
are willing to make concessions to the demand for price increases. At present, the contradiction between the two parties has become increasingly acute. In my opinion, this contradiction is irresolvable, so conflicts will definitely break out in the future, and the price of oil will definitely rise. By that time, the automobile market will
We will definitely favor energy-saving and economical cars.”
"conflict?"
The rich people around Chu Heng, including Chrissy, seemed to have heard some fantasy at this time, and their faces showed the arrogance and pride of being citizens of the most powerful country.
"Do those guys who can't even put on shoes have the guts to challenge us?"
"Pfft... Please forgive me, I just can't bear it anymore. Haha, your joke is really funny."
"You remind me of a Chinese fable called... Well, unfounded worries, is this one, Chu?"
Everyone found the man's prediction ridiculous.
Where are most of the major oil-producing countries in the world now?
Desert!
How dare those small ant-like countries dare to provoke Citigroup? Dare they provoke the Five Eyes Alliance?
dissatisfied?
I am also holding back my dissatisfaction!
This is the confidence that comes from the most powerful country.
Facing these people's sarcastic words, the man was not angry. He had long been used to it. He smiled helplessly and had no intention of arguing with them anymore.
Because it makes no sense.
On the side, Chu Heng did not smile. He looked at the man in front of him in surprise, and looked at him carefully again.
Chu Heng comes from a generation after the information explosion. Although he has no special knowledge of the history of this period, he occasionally picks up some information when he occasionally browses Douyin and watches movies.
??????55.??????
Therefore, he vaguely remembered that an oil crisis would break out in about seven years, which would have a profound impact on the global economy, politics, and culture.
Among these impacts, one must mention the automobile industry, which is very dependent on oil. Many ostentatious luxury cars disappeared due to the oil crisis, and a new generation of cars that are more practical and compact gradually occupied the market.
In order to save gas, the Citizen government even implemented a nationwide speed limit!
It can be seen from this that the impact of this oil crisis is huge.
At this moment, Chu Heng stared at the man with his eyes. He was surprised by the man's foresight and ability to predict the oil crisis several years in advance.
Immediately, he said calmly: "Ah, look at me, I have been talking for so long and I still don't know your name. It's really rude."
"It's me who's rude. I didn't tell my name. My name is Benino Rey. You can call me Benino, Mr. Chu. My friends all call me that." The man said quickly.
Benigno Rey?
Chu Heng's eyes showed a trace of undetectable doubts.
He was very sure that Benigno Rey had no reputation in the automotive field in later generations.
So, he didn’t succeed in starting a business in the end? Or did he not get investment?
Thinking of this, Chu Heng, who originally had the idea of investing in the man, hesitated.
He didn't know why this person would fail in the future, and he was worried that his investment would be in vain, but he didn't want to miss such an excellent opportunity to get involved in the automobile industry.
After hesitating for a moment, Chu Heng decided to take a gamble.
Anyway, the money in his hands is easy to come by, and if he loses it, he will lose it, and there will be plenty of opportunities to make money in the future.
Ever since, the corners of Chu Heng's mouth slowly raised, and he stepped forward to take Benino's arm warmly and cordially: "I quite agree with what you said, can you tell me about your business plan? If you can
If you impress me, I will persuade the company's shareholders to invest some money in you."
Benigno, who was about to find an excuse to leave and continue to solicit investment, raised his head in surprise: "Of course, of course."
"Oh, God."
Krissy's eyes widened when he heard this, and he hurriedly advised: "No way, Chu, you actually believed what he said? I think you might as well invest your money in our new movie."
"I also think this is a bad investment plan. I advise you to be more cautious." The old man with whom he had a pleasant conversation also advised.
"Thank you for your kindness, but isn't investing just a gamble?" Chu Heng said with a smile: "The future described by Mr. Rey is very tempting, so I want to take a bet. If I win, this will definitely be ten thousand dollars."
A hundredfold return.”
"Sorry, I'll excuse you for a moment." He bowed apologetically to these people, then walked towards the quiet rest area with Benigno.
"He is simply crazy." Chrissy looked at the backs of the two men and shook his head.
The others looked at each other with mocking expressions on their faces.
"This Mr. Chu...hehe."
"What a bold investment."
"Come on, I think it's stupid to be persuaded so easily. I originally wanted to cooperate with him, but now it seems that I have to reconsider."
No one thought highly of Benino, and Chu Heng was called a fool because of this.
