On the day the silver G55 arrived in Yanjing, Li Mugang and Zhao Kang took Chen Wan to the airport together.
On the way back from the airport, Li Mu received a call from Fatty Wang, saying that the car had arrived and was parked in a warehouse on the East Fourth Ring Road. The relevant procedures had been completed, and Li Mu could drive directly to get the license plate.
Li Mu was also very excited when he received the call. Although he occasionally reflected on himself that he shouldn't be too inflated, but to be honest, he really had enough of driving this GL8!
The control is average, the comfort is average, the power is average, the appearance is average, everything is average. It was quite enjoyable to drive at first, but now it can no longer meet Li Mu's needs.
Zhao Kang had already heard about Li Mu’s car ordering. Most people in China still don’t know much about the Mercedes-Benz G series. Only people who have a thorough knowledge of cars know about the existence of the Mercedes-Benz G series. He also searched for it online. It took me a long time to figure out what the origin of the Mercedes-Benz G Series is.
However, Zhao Kang and Li Mu have different car aesthetics. He doesn't really like the boxy shape of the G55. He actually doesn't like off-roading. He likes luxury cars, such as the BMW 7 Series and Mercedes-Benz S-Class.
When talking about his favorite car model, Li Mu said: "Why don't you just buy a 7 Series BMW? The handling, power and comfort are all very good."
Zhao Kang scratched his head: "To be honest, I haven't decided whether to buy a car. Didn't I just buy one for my dad during the Chinese New Year? Wouldn't it seem a bit wasteful to buy it again?"
Li Mu glared at him and said, "Are you scolding me?"
Zhao Kang waved his hands hurriedly: "I don't. You are worth so much now. Let alone a car worth three million, you can even afford a private jet."
Li Mu said: "You are also a shareholder of Makino Technology, and your worth is not low. Now you still have income from plug-ins. You have also opened an Internet cafe, and your capital is very strong."
Zhao Kang laughed and said, "What you said makes sense. I'm so lucky now that I'm worth over 100 million..." After saying that, Zhao Kang tilted his head and looked at Li Mu, and said with a nonchalant smile: "How about I Also a whole car?”
Li Mu nodded and encouraged, "Let's build one. Making money is for enjoyment."
Zhao Kang slapped his thigh and said excitedly: "Yes, that's right! Is the 7 Series BMW sold in China?"
Li Mu said: "It should be there, let's go to the 4S store and have a look."
"Okay!" Zhao Kang said eagerly, "When you say that, I feel itchy. I will accompany you to pick up the car first, and then you will accompany me to the 4S store."
…
When Fatty Wang heard that the car had arrived, he ran to Cai Zhengmao's warehouse in Yanjing early to see the car. Cai Zhengmao happened to come over to see the condition of the new batch of cars. When he saw Fatty Wang coming over, he asked where the car was and how it was in condition. He couldn't help but be surprised. asked him: "Fat Wang, who wants that Mercedes-Benz? Why are you so interested in it?"
Fatty Wang smiled and said: "I am a good buddy. If someone asks me to do something, I will definitely take care of him."
Cai Zhengmao curled his lips: "Why don't you do it? I don't know you? Last time your friend picked up the Bentley, you didn't care so much. It seemed like your friend picked up the car himself. , I searched around the factory for more than half an hour but couldn't find a place. When I saw him, he complained to me, saying that you didn't explain it clearly to him."
Fatty Wang smiled awkwardly and said, "It's different. I wasn't familiar with that guy last time. This time he's my brother."
Cai Zhengmao asked him: "Who is it? Do I know him?"
Fatty Wang said, "You probably don't know the people on Lao Chen's line."
Cai Zhengmao nodded slightly and said thoughtfully: "It seems that the people on Lao Chen's line are all shareholders of your bar, right?"
Fatty Wang said: "Yes, the guy who picked up the car is also one of the shareholders of my store."
Cai Zhengmao smiled and said: "You are very lucky this time. That G55 was specially customized by a wealthy man from the Middle East for Mercedes-Benz. The ex-factory price is nearly three million yuan, which is more expensive than a Rolls-Royce. But the car hasn't arrived yet." I didn’t like it anymore, so I found someone to get a military version of the Hummer H1 from the United States, and I sold the car cheaply.”
Fatty Wang smiled and said, "According to what you say, this car can be sold at the same price as a Rolls-Royce in China."
Cai Zhengmao said: "I think there is no point in selling special customized cars of brands like Mercedes-Benz and BMW to other people except to sell them at a higher price to the customizer. If a modified G55 has the same price as a Rolls-Royce, you Would you buy a G55? Unless your brain is kicked by a donkey."
Fatty Wang nodded: "That's right." Then he couldn't help but ask him: "I've been talking about it for a long time. Where is the car? Let me take a look."
Cai Zhengmao waved his hand: "This batch of cars are all lined up inside for washing and waxing. It rained in Tianjin two days ago, and the cars waiting for customs clearance were all covered in mud."
After entering the factory, Fatty Wang saw the more than 20 cars that had arrived this time. They were lined up in a straight line waiting to be cleaned and waxed. Although Li Mu's G55 was covered with a layer of dust, it was still easy to identify. Among the first batch of cars arriving, this was the only off-road one.
Seeing that Li Mu's car was at the back of the queue, Fatty Wang couldn't help but said, "Oh, my buddy will be here soon. Hurry up and wash his car out first."
Cai Zhengmao rolled his eyes at him and said, "Your buddy wants to pick up the car, and my buddy wants to pick up the car too. The cars in front are all Changan Club members' cars, and they will all be here soon."
Fatty Wang took out an exquisite cigarette case, took out a thin handmade cigar from it, handed it to Cai Zhengmao, and said: "Lao Cai, Brother Cai, in our relationship, is such a trivial matter still a big deal? Anyway, the people from the Chang'an Club you mentioned are not here yet. Now you have my friend's car washed. Later, my buddy will come, and the car is waiting here, clean and shiny. I look at it in my heart. It’s comfortable, isn’t it?”
Cai Zhengmao took the cigar and said with a smile: "Fat Wang, you are so attentive, I really want to see who is the person who brought this G55..."
Fatty Wang said, "I'll be here soon. I'll introduce you to him then."
Cai Zhengmao nodded and said to the technicians who were waxing a Ferrari: "You guys, drive the Ferrari to the side first, and drive the G55 behind to wash it first."
When several mechanics saw the boss's personal instructions, they immediately stopped what they were doing. One started the Ferrari and drove to the side. The other ran to drive the G55 over. The remaining people got the car washing equipment and waited. As soon as the car arrived Start cleaning as soon as you stop.
Fatty Wang yelled at the side: "Brothers, please clean yourself up. I will pay for everyone to have dinner at noon, two hundred per person!"
With that said, Fatty Wang took out his handbag from his armpit, took out a thousand yuan, handed it to a young man next to him who was registering vehicle information, and said, "Please give it to the guys at the car wash."
Cai Zhengmao looked at Fatty Wang. He didn't say anything, but he kept muttering in his heart, what's wrong with Fatty Wang? Who are you serving, so caring
In fact, for Fatty Wang himself, he now feels that Li Mu is too capable of making money. Judging from the fact that Xu Jiaming invested 800 million in Muye Technology, he initially invested 80 million in Li Mu and took 10 million from Muye Technology. % of the shares, the current market value has reached at least 500 million. It has increased more than six times in about half a year. The potential for future appreciation is too great to imagine. Even if you worship the God of Wealth, you may not be able to worship it. Come to this kind of good fortune!
For Fatty Wang himself, although his family also has a certain amount of strength, the only thing he can get is a Sugar Club. He also wants to make a lot of money, so naturally he hopes to join forces with Li Mu If you get into some, you may have some investment opportunities in the future, and you may be able to make a fortune like Xu Jiaming.
…
Li Mu drove to the place designated by Fatty Wang, which was a small industrial zone outside the Fourth Ring Road. Cai Zhengmao had a row of warehouses here, covering a total area of about five to six thousand square meters. Cars disembarking from Tianjin City would be cleared first after customs clearance. Shipped here.
Li Mu drove his GL8 into the factory area and found Cai Zhengmao's row of factory buildings. As soon as he stopped the car outside the door, Fatty Wang ran out of it. As soon as Li Mu got out of the car, Fatty Wang walked up and waved to him. Said: "The car is ready, just waiting for you to pick it up. I checked it for you. From top to bottom, from inside to outside, there is not even a single scratch. It has just been waxed and is very beautiful." Got it!"
When Fatty Wang said this, Li Mu felt a little impatient. He waved to Zhao Kang, and the two of them quickly walked into the factory door with Fatty Wang. As soon as they entered, Li Mu was startled by the sight in front of him. This wide arch. There are dozens of luxury cars of all kinds parked in the factory. There are simply too many to count. From Ferrari to Lamborghini to Bentley and Rolls-Royce, dozens of luxury cars are parked here. The market price alone is at least two dollars. 100 million, and the lighting in the factory is very good, so every car looks more dazzling when viewed here.
Li Mu also found out today that there was already such a large-scale luxury car importer in China in 2002. According to Fatty Wang, this Cai Zhengmao didn’t even bother to open a shop or do any advertising, but he didn’t worry about selling the car at all. If he doesn't go out, people have to queue up every time he orders a car. If the car is ordinary or the unit price is low, he won't even bother to deal with it.
The G55 that Li Mu ordered this time is a relatively ordinary transaction for Cai Zhengmao. He rarely does all Mercedes-Benz cars, except for the AMG series, which he occasionally does. The reason is very simple. In his eyes, Mercedes-Benz It is a relatively low-end brand. All it makes are sports cars or ultra-luxury cars. Mercedes-Benz's AMG has barely touched the threshold of ultra-luxury cars.
After a brief moment of surprise, Li Mu discovered his silver G55 among the dazzling array of luxury cars. The silver G55 had a strong metallic texture. It had just been waxed and matched with the lighting facilities in the factory, making the car simply dazzling. Eye-catching.
The G55 is inherently larger than other sports cars and ultra-luxury cars, and its retro shape is also very recognizable. The square shape, domineering front face and Mercedes-Benz logo are simply a piece of art in Li Mu's eyes. Taste.
Although this car has become relatively common in China in later generations, it has never reached the level of a Land Rover Range Rover. This has always been one of Li Mu's favorite Dream-Cars, and now it is parked quietly in front of him. Waiting for your own control, this feeling is quite wonderful.
Li Mu opened the extra thick door of the G55 and could see that the car glass was much thicker than that of ordinary cars. Only then did Li Mu remember that this car was actually a modified bulletproof car. Not only the windows, but also the entire car should have It has been reinforced and modified.
Sitting in the cab of this G55, the high body of the off-road vehicle gave him an unusually high field of vision. It felt a lot wider at once. The interior was simple and in line with Li Mu's personal aesthetic standards.
The car key was inserted into the keyhole. Li Mu lowered the window and shouted to Fatty Wang: "Old Wang, is it okay if I drive out and give it a try?"
Fatty Wang said: "I'll go, you can drive away in your own car, no problem!"
Li Mu smiled and said: "That's alright, let me try it out first." After saying that, Li Mu waved to Zhao Kang again: "Kangzi, come up and feel it!"
As soon as Zhao Kang came in and saw the car, he was very excited. As soon as Li Mu greeted him, he immediately ran to the passenger seat excitedly, opened the door and got in. After sitting in, he started looking and touching. , a look of surprise.
Cai Zhengmao came to Fatty Wang at this time and asked him in a low voice: "Is that guy in the driver's seat the buddy you mentioned?"
Fatty Wang nodded.
Cai Zhengmao frowned slightly and thought to himself, it doesn't look like he is very awesome. Instead, he looks impatient when he sees the G55. He seems a bit inexperienced in the world. However, for such a young boy to be able to afford a G55, his family must be quite powerful. Could he be the second generation of a big family in Yanjing
So, Cai Zhengmao asked Fatty Wang: "Who is this guy from? Which family is he from?"
Fatty Wang shook his head and said, "No, he is not a second-generation person. He has opened several companies of his own."
Cai Zhengmao was even more surprised: "Start a company? Start your own business?"
"Well, starting from scratch."
Cai Zhengmao looked at Li Mu who had started the G55 and slowly drove out of the factory, and said to Fatty Wang: "Okay, it's interesting to start from scratch at such a young age and still be able to afford a car worth more than three million yuan."
Fatty Wang nodded and praised to himself: "It's more than a little interesting."
At this time, Cai Zhengmao held his chin with one hand and asked, "How long has this guy been starting a business?"
Fatty Wang thought about it and said, "It should be less than a year."
"It's not even a year yet?" Cai Zhengmao frowned: "How much money can you make if you start from scratch in Yanjing and die in less than a year? You dare to spend more than three million on a car. Isn't it a bit too much? ?”
Fatty Wang chuckled and said, "Is he pretending too much? To be honest, he may be the most low-key billionaire I have ever seen."
"Billionaire?" Cai Zhengmao asked in surprise: "What industry is he in? What is the name of the company?"
Fatty Wang said: "There are several companies doing the Internet. I can't tell you which ones they are, but I remember one."
"what is it call?"
"Makino Technology."
"Makino Technology? It sounds familiar."
"It's just the happy farm thing, you didn't play it?"
"I'm so stupid..."
