Chapter 229 The conspiracy has no solution
Originally, there were only a few old companies in the automobile industry that shared the cake, and they did not interfere with each other on the surface.

They all made a lot of money happily.

But Tesla suddenly emerged two years ago and took away a big piece of the pie with its new energy vehicles.

It is difficult to kick this newcomer out because they are a super company overseas. We can only make some small moves in public opinion.

But this year, a "geek" suddenly appeared and came to share the cake again.

How can the old manufacturers sit still?

Cutting off someone's source of income is like killing their parents, let alone these capitalists who eat people without leaving any bones.

In particular, the price of "Geek" is between 100,000 and 300,000 yuan, which is a civilian car. This directly puts it in opposition to some manufacturers who also make civilian cars.

Plus, since this is a new business, naturally some people want to strangle them in the cradle.

But it is not easy. Firstly, there is the support of Ye Zichen, a wealthy sponsor, behind the scenes. Secondly, Lin Yi is well aware of these people's tricks.

There are only a few types that come and go.

After learning that the first batch of orders had been delivered, Lin Yi stood up and called Luo Ye
"Come on, you accompany me to meet someone, and it won't be long before these opinions disappear naturally."

"Oh."

Luo Ye originally thought that Lin Yi was going to take him to meet some important figure in order to dispel these public opinions.

But I didn't expect that the person I met this time was a young programmer who lived in an ordinary apartment.

"Why does this person look so familiar?"

Luo Ye looked at a man wearing glasses walking towards him and felt like he had seen him somewhere.

"The Guangtian car whose brakes failed and almost hit Luo Qinghan and me was his."

"Oh! No wonder I felt like I've seen it somewhere before."

Luo Ye suddenly realized, but at the same time he was confused: "But what is he doing? Is he some hidden god?"

"What great god? Do you think I'm Sun Wukong? Can anyone be a god?"

Lin Yi glanced at Luo Ye, then did not explain, but walked towards the car owner Chen Lei who was still looking for someone.

Chen Lei was still looking for Lin Yi's figure in his heart.

It was not until he saw Lin Yi coming that he realized that he was a little excited at first, but then he immediately calmed himself down and tidied his appearance.

Then he greeted Lin Yi: "Hello, Mr. Lin, I didn't expect to meet you at that time."

Lin Yi looked at his nervous look and couldn't help but smile: "Don't be nervous, it's not your problem, it's the problem of your car at that time."

"I really didn't expect that you are such a big boss at such a young age."

Chen Lei is already in his thirties and his child is already in elementary school, but Lin Yi, who is ten years younger than him, is actually the boss of a large company.

This made him feel like he was living the life of a dog.

Lin Yi and Chen Lei chatted for a while, mainly to let the other party not be nervous anymore.

After entering the geek 4S store, Lin Yi said to Chen Lei: "This black Geek is the top configuration. It just so happens that you haven't bought a new car yet. We are destined to be together. Let's consider it as a New Year's gift to you."

Although Lin Yi had already told Chen Lei about this matter in advance, allowing him to be mentally prepared.

But now when I see it with my own eyes and get the car keys, I still can't believe it.

This car worth more than 200,000 yuan was really given to him for free.

Luo Ye raised his eyebrows and opened his eyes for a moment, not knowing what Lin Yi was doing.

But he knew that Lin Yi must have his reasons.

Before picking up the car, Lin Yi asked Gu Mucheng, who was already working here, to take a photo of Chen Lei and him, and recorded a video speech of picking up the car.

Lin Yi was not given to Chen Lei for nothing, he had a condition. He wanted Chen Lei to say that the person he met at the scene of the car accident was Lin Yi, and that he tried his best to control the direction of the out-of-control car to prevent it from hitting Lin Yi.

Thus the two of them got to know each other, and Lin Yi gave a gift as a token of his gratitude.

Of course, this statement was half true and half false. Chen Lei was already panicking at the time and was not calm enough to control himself.

Lin Yi’s gift was not free of charge.

But it's not a big deal. Chen Lei is a man with a wife and children. Now that his car has broken down, he has received compensation from the insurance company.

But it's only tens of thousands of dollars. If I buy a new car, it will definitely cost a lot of money.

Now that Lin Yi had given him one and asked him only to record a few videos and say a few nice words about geeks, he naturally would not refuse.

Lin Yi also borrowed money for a car and made a good advertisement.

Before the New Year, Lin Yi made a big fuss about Chen Lei's Guangtian car losing control, which became a hot topic on the entire Internet. Almost few netizens did not know about it.

Chen Lei also gained a certain amount of attention as a result.

At the same time, various versions of rumors are circulating about the quarrel between Guangtian and Geek.

At this time, Lin Yi gave Chen Lei a car, which was implicitly saying that Geek is better than you Guangtian.

Not only does your car have problems, but someone else got into an accident with your car and you didn't give any compensation. Your geek boss only knows how to compensate.

Most people don’t care what your deeper meaning is, they only look at the surface.

Later on, Lin Yi would ask Chen Lei to record a video and driving experience every once in a while, intending to make full use of Chen Lei's traffic.

After returning to the office, Lin Yi told Luo Ye his entire plan.

"Wonderful! You are truly amazing!"

After hearing this, Luo Ye exclaimed, "In order to make a big fuss about Chen Lei's car accident, we spent a lot of money to buy traffic and publicity. Now you use a car to directly utilize this wave of traffic again."

"Fuck! I suddenly realized that ordinary capitalists have to call you Master when they see you."

The money that was originally meant for one thing was used by Lin Yi to do two things.

Luo Ye really admires Lin Yi for not forgetting to save money while making money.

"This is called a strategy, do you understand? Business is like a battlefield, and capital is the military force. However, having a large number of troops alone does not necessarily lead to victory. The strategy of a military advisor is to defeat the larger force with a smaller one."

Lin Yi raised his eyebrows.

Luo Ye would definitely not be able to think of this method, and this is an open conspiracy. The main part of the incident really happened, and the other party has no way to deal with it.

Sure enough, after Chen Lei posted the video using his personal account, it soon became a hot topic.

Chen Lei never thought that he could make a lot of money by posting a video.

But this worries Guangtian's sales department, as they are stepping on their heads to climb up.

It is not a good idea to continue to confront the geeks, as I am afraid that the more I argue, the more I lose.

It is probably impossible to turn the situation around, as they are already at a disadvantage in public opinion.

I had to give up for the time being and try to find a way to gradually calm the matter down.

Half a month later, Chen Lei's enthusiasm seemed to have been suddenly extinguished, and there was no improvement.

He also became an ordinary programmer again.

But Lin Yi knew that someone was behind this matter.

However, since the other party was just trying to suppress the popularity, he gave up. At least now Geek has secured the initial market.

By the end of the month, Luo Qinghan followed Lin Yi back to the city to start working.
