Automotive Black Technology Chapter 513: : There is no African tank?

After thinking for a while, Li Fanyu asked tentatively: "Chris, just tell me how big the pickup truck market is in Africa."

"Definitely not less than 700,000 vehicles! Mr. Li, the number I mentioned is except for the civilian market!"

Seven hundred thousand vehicles?

Not counting the statistics on the civilian market...

When Chris said this, Li Fanyu seemed to understand a little bit what he was referring to...

"Chris, the part of the market you're talking about doesn't mean those... illegal militants, right? If that's the case, this business is too sensitive?"

"No, no, no! It's not sensitive at all. This part of the market is just something the official can't count. But this doesn't mean it's illegal. We sell cars and meet market demand. Mr. Li, you Let's be clear. Cars...are not weapons."

I wipe...

What you said makes sense, Lao Tie, and I am speechless!

This layer of window paper was pierced by Li Fanyu, but Chris didn't have any worries at all. I began to analyze this business opportunity hidden under the civilian market for him in detail.

Because the economy in Africa is generally underdeveloped, out of consideration for transportation, which can promote economic development, and the intentional policy relaxations of various governments, there is no mandatory scrapping of cars in Africa.

In other words, after buying a car, consumers can drive it until it stops driving!

This policy has two main effects;

First, because of the long elimination cycle, the number of cars in Africa can rise steadily.

Secondly, the sales market for second-hand cars is growing slowly because of the long elimination cycle.

So, with a total of nearly 1.2 billion people in Africa and nearly 300 million people with the ability to buy cars, the African car market is still the one with the slowest growth rate compared to the global car market.

But!

The market that Chris mentioned is different.

Why?

Because of the chaos...

Africa can be said to be the most politically unstable region in the world, with various civil strife and wars occurring frequently. Under this chaos, various local warlord armed forces and illegal armed forces emerged.

Correspondingly, pacification operations in various countries have also continued. Even some countries with interests in Africa have sent military forces to intervene. The military force mentioned here includes two types; one is regular small-scale troops and the other is mercenaries.

The above forces are really complex.

Under this complexity, on the land of Africa, a low-end version or even a nonsensical front-page version of "Warring States" is staged on the African land, starring black uncles with poor equipment, poor military skills, and poor strategic awareness. .

But no matter what, fighting requires troops, military power, and transportation capabilities!

So, in the African version of the Warring States Period, all kinds of thin-skinned, cheap and durable things can become the No. 1 props on the battlefield.

For example, AK47, such as...pickup truck,

It is different from the civilian market; if you maintain a car on time and take good care of it, even if the car is junk, you can repair it and drive it for ten or eight years without any problem.

But it's different on the battlefield.

On the battlefield, a vehicle can die in 800 different ways; including being maimed by AK47 strafing, being maimed by .50 machine gun strafing, being directly obliterated by missiles, and being detonated by low driving skills. The black uncle driver crashed it, including the one that was never scrapped due to careful maintenance...

Anyway, cars on the battlefield are miserable. It just doesn’t last as long as its brothers in the civilian market.

Here, the car obsolescence rate is higher than in any other country!

Even in some areas with fierce wars, cars and condoms are the same thing - they are both disposable consumer goods.

So in the African market, there will be many large-volume car purchase orders. Moreover, this type of sponsor never asks for invoices, after-sales service and three guarantees...

You are stupid, you have a lot of money, you have a large order quantity, and you buy very frequently.

This is simply the most ideal customer in the world!

After listening to what Chris said, Li Fanyu’s saliva was left in his mouth,

But after saying this, Chris' tone became obviously lower, "It's a pity... If the F150 can be sold in Africa, and furthermore, if it can be produced in Africa, it will definitely bring huge profits! Alas... ...."

After hanging up the phone, Li Fanyu hurriedly contacted the OEM.

Li Fanyu didn’t know whether the data Chris mentioned was accurate, but he could understand the business opportunities contained in this change with just a little thought!

If you ignore such a huge market, how can you do business?

But the reply from the OEM made Li Fan furious.

When Chris told him this just now, Li Fanyu actually didn't intend to believe it all. Because in any case, there is no cooperation with DME on F150 agency sales rights. If it were Li Fanyu himself, he would definitely have to reserve what he said.

He has fully experienced this Western way of speaking and doing things where interests are not vested and information is not disclosed.

After the OEM explained it, Li Fanyu realized that things were not that simple!

The market described by Chris is absolutely real.

But what he didn’t say is that if you want to do business with the armed forces of all parties in Africa, you must have strength and connections!

The banking business under DME is specially designed for these forces! That's right, in addition to car loans and other businesses, the most important business of DME's bank is to provide funding services for these forces.

To put it bluntly, it is to provide these armed forces with a legal external funding channel to purchase materials, weapons and the like!

By controlling this channel, DME is able to make money from these forces through various methods...

In other words, the car purchasing needs of these forces are completely prohibited by DME.

Even if the OEM can overcome the current sanctions imposed by African countries on American capital and enter the market, it can still get this business!

It was precisely because of this support that Chris told Li Fanyu about this market without any concealment.

In the end, Chris still refused to give up. Throwing out this big piece of cake that Li Fanyu can see and cannot eat is also to put more pressure on the OEM side.

This is so annoying.

The OEM side currently holds the product and cannot enter the market.

DME is just grasping the market and wants a powerful automotive product.

The difficult thing is that because of competition and interests, it is impossible for the two parties to team up to do this business.

Li Fanyu was caught in the middle, feeling so aggrieved...

Huh?

Bridge bean sack!

Now Hongguang's sales are not as unrestrained as expected, and Huaicheng's production line can fully meet the production tasks. In this case, why doesn't Nima develop a car specifically for the African market? !

Thinking of this, he quickly turned on his phone and searched for information on the African pickup truck market. After the course of automobile history changed, as a less developed African market, the various models were so chaotic that even an insider like Li Fanyu was dizzy.

But as he watched, this guy suddenly slapped his thigh - he discovered something amazing.

Rub!

In this time and space, there are no African tanks? !
