As the saying goes, one who does not think far ahead will inevitably have worries near at hand. Now that there had been an appearance of an enemy who could appear at any time, Hong Dali naturally didn?t dare to be too relaxed about it.

But he wasn?t really scared of this. He was an unmatched lucky star by himself, and the other party was an angel of misfortune. Even if they tied one to one with each other, he himself had quite a lot of other advantages.

I?ll see about it by then!

Anyway, he definitely couldn?t give up on Chuyin. He definitely couldn?t abandon her after finally letting her smile.

?This Vincent Iverson is truly powerful.? Hong Dali scratched his head. ?But it doesn?t matter, I?m used to it. I won?t think too much, heh heh. Oh right, Chuyin, what are we going to play later??

?Mm,? Lin Chuyin didn?t have any feelings towards Vincent Iverson, and in fact, apart from Hong Dali, she didn?t have any feelings towards others. ?I heard that you?ve bought a toy factory. I think that it?s more suitable for me to reform machines.?

En, since she had a plan already, then everything else was easy. Hong Dali pulled Lin Chuyin?s hand. ?Then, after we stay here for a while more, we?ll go to the factory. Today there?s a person who said that he wanted me to be a shareholder of his company and play around with cars. That car of yours is quite good, why don?t we properly design a new car??

This was a good idea. Hong Dali had not the slightest doubt about Lin Chuyin?s skills. That super cool sports car of hers was not just ordinarily awesome.

Aye, speaking of which, if the car company were to make high-end cars, for instance, at a Bugatti Veyron?s price…

With Chuyin?s skills, that would be something really spectacular!

?Mm, OK.? Anyway, as long as she followed by Hong Dali?s side, Lin Chuyin didn?t care. Thus, she completely accepted Hong Dali?s suggestion. ?Then let?s go back now. These amusement activities are quite boring.?

Thus, after the Ferris Wheel had finished making one round, Hong Dali and Lin Chuyin instantly came down. Very soon, everyone gathered. Hong Dali smiled and said, ?Let?s go. we?ll go back and study cars! Today?s really a good day, I?ll make this place free of charge for three days hence! Hahaha!?

Ling Xiaoyi and the others sighed. Young Master Dali?s spending is really no joke.

Tang Muxin excitedly ran forward and hugged Lin Chuyin?s arm. ?Sister Chuyin, in the future, you must come out often to play. It?s not good to always stay cooped up in the laboratory.?

?Oh…? Lin Chuyin?s hand was still tugging at the edge of Hong Dali?s clothes. ?OK, I know.?

Very soon, they returned to the laboratory on the fourth floor of Chenhui Building. Though they had only been gone for a little more that one hour, everyone?s mood had already undergone an obvious change. To everyone, Lin Chuyin being able to smile made them even happier than earning a few million yuan.

?Come come come, let?s look at the blueprint first!? Hong Dali took the laptop and put it on the table. After it was switched on, it displayed the sci-fi style sports car Granzon that had been previously designed by the toy factory?s designer. He said, ?Chuyin, what do you think about this car? Is it very cool??

Upon hearing that there was a blueprint of a sci-fi style sports car, the vice CEO of Tianying Car Company, Li Daguo, squeezed forward and carefully looked at that concept car with a super cool design, Granzon. He nodded and said, ?En, looks good, this car looks good!?

?Of course!? Hong Dali gleefully said, ?I?m most satisfied with this car type.? As he spoke, he suddenly recalled that he still didn?t know how the cars produced by Tianying Car Company looked like. Thus, he hurriedly asked, ?Director Li, what do our Tianying cars look like? Let me take a look.?

?Sure!? Li Daguo took the laptop, opened the webpage and entered the website address. Very soon, the official website of Tianying Car Company appeared. Li Daguo pointed at the cars on the screen and said, ?They?re all here. Young Master, take a look.?

Those cars that were displayed on the website were all ordinary, without much flaws and of course, not many striking points as well…

They didn?t feel much towards it, but Hong Dali couldn?t stand it!

?Director Li, are our Tianying cars this tacky?? Hong Dali pointed at the picture of the car on the website. ?Are there any striking features? Any attractive aspects? If you don?t mind me saying, serves you right that this company of yours cannot compete against Toyoda?s cars. Look at these damn cars, the desire to buy them doesn?t even twitch when I look at them!?

?Uh…? Li Daguo was at a loss for words, as he stared in bewilderment and said, ?Young Master, these are all low-end cars that cost 200,000 to 300,000. The slightly better ones are only around 500,000. Are your expectations too high…?

Everyone around nodded in agreement.

It had to be admitted that with regards to these low-end cars that cost 200,000 to 300,000, the cars by Tianying Car Company were still praiseworthy.

But obviously, Hong Dali didn?t think that way. ?Look at this icon, what is this? A circle, a line turning and two more lines at the bottom, and that?s the Tianying logo? Is this an eagle?s wing??

?Y… yes?? Li Daguo despondently said, ?This is just the simplification of an eagle?s wing, what?s bad about that??

?It?s not only bad! It?s horrible!? Hong Dali raged. ?The icon represents the image of the company! Whether a car is a high end depends on its logo at first sight! Even if your cars are low end, at least you can make the logo look prettier. Then it?ll then look like it?s worth a lot of money, right?! Let me ask you. If those few Prayer Angels of mine are to adopt this car logo of yours and the rest of its aspects remain unchanged, how much money do you think each of them can be sold for??

?This…? This time, Li Daguo was truly at a loss for words.

Actually, thinking about it carefully, it was really the case. If you changed the car logos of all the Rolls Royce in the world to the logos of other low-end cars, then it would definitely not be able to be sold for such a high price. This thing was like a woman?s face?no matter how good her figure was, if she was ugly, she wouldn?t be of much value!

Everyone around was also engaged in their own discussions. Though Hong Dali?s words seemed simple, they were actually rather reasonable.

If those few Prayer Angels really adopted Tianying?s logo, then probably whoever saw them would definitely not say that they were top-quality luxury cars…

?Young Master is right!? After thinking about it for a while, Li Daguo fiercely nodded. ?Then, Young Master, what kind of car logo do you think will be better? I?ll ask the design team to redesign the logo right away!?

?Simple, for the high-end ones, make a simplified eagle and directly mount it onto the hood of the car!? Hong Dali instantly decided. ?For the low-end ones, make an eagle head, it must be cool and impressive enough! Whether or not the cars are high-end or low-end, at least its outer appearance must look good!?

?Yes yes yes,? Li Daguo was soaked with sweat. ?I?ll tell that side to redesign it. What about the style of the car??

?It must be changed!? Hong Dali pointed at the car on the screen. ?Look at these cars! If you can?t win in other aspects, at least the style of your cars must look better, right? If you want to compete against others, you must have the ability to do so. Look at these cars, how do they deserve to compete against Toyoda?s cars? With an eggplant-like style? People won?t even have the urge to buy them after seeing them! Look at our Granzon!?

Hong Dali clicked on the picture of the Granzon, and as he became more excited, he spat his saliva all around. ?One look at it and you can tell it?s an awesome luxury car! If we can?t compete against others with our quality, we can compete based on outer appearances! You?ve previously been troubled about the technical skills not being as advanced as that of others, and even your cars? outer appearances don?t have an advantage over the other party! Think about it. If you look at just the outer appearance of this Granzon, how much do you think it can be sold for??

?This… This…? Li Daguo carefully looked at the outer appearance of the Granzon, and it did look better the more he looked at it. Thus, he said with a little uncertainty, ?I reckon it should be sold for at least one million or so…?

?One million or so?!? Hong Dali huffed and puffed as he said, ?That?s small change!?

?Yes yes yes,? Li Daguo was soaked with sweat. ?At least 3 to 4 million!?

Speaking up to this point, everyone around couldn?t help but giggle. Hong Dali continued to huff and puff. ?Guess again, it?s still small change!?

?Ah?!? Li Daguo was truly stunned this time. ?It couldn?t be… 10 million, right??

?You?re really hopeless.? Hong Dali mumbled. ?I?ve already said that it?s small change. It?s just a full-scale toy car, so its price would be a small change of one million or so, so it?ll be 30,000 to 40,000!?

After Hong Dali had said that, everyone collapsed in laughter.

This Hong Dali was just too good at playing around with others. Isn?t it obvious that you?re misleading him?

?…? Li Daguo was initially still a little angry. How could you fool someone like that? I?m, after all, already over 40 years old, do you know how to respect the old? But after he thought about it, what Hong Dali said made sense!

Just a toy car alone, because of its good outer appearance, looks like it?s worth a lot! Not to mention 30,000 to 40,000, probably even if it was 100,000 to 200,000, there?d definitely be people buying it too!

This could be said to really have enlightened him. Li Daguo instantly understood and hurriedly smiled sheepishly and said, ?Young Master is right. What Young Master says is reasonable! If the style of the car is good, it?ll instantly give off a feeling that it?s of a higher end! Young Master, is this what you?re trying to say?? Li Daguo pointed at the Granzon on the screen and said, ?Even if I change the spare parts in this car to the quality of 30,000 to 40,000 yuan ones, even if it?s not sold at hundreds of thousands of yuan, at least it can be sold for a few thousand yuan more without a problem, right??

?Almost there.? Hong Dali nodded. ?Even if it doesn?t increase so steeply, at least it?s competitiveness would increase by quite a lot. Think about it. With the same configurations and level of performance as other cars, of course, I?ll buy the one that looks good. Isn?t it obvious.?

This could be easily understood. When buying cars, with the same price level and the same configurations, why wouldn?t I buy one that looks better?

Everyone around nodded their heads. If the appearance of the Prayer Angels were so tacky, no matter how luxurious the functions, features, and performance, I won?t drive them too!

?So that?s why. Sometimes, it?s more important to put in effort in making the outer appearances look good!? Hong Dali concluded. ?The outer appearance of your cars definitely need to be redesigned!?

?OK OK OK, no problem. When I get back I?ll ask the design department to start working on it! Oh right, that… Young Master,? Li Daguo was now rather in agreement with what Hong Dali said, thus he was quite interested in this sci-fi style sedan car, Granzon. ?Then, this Granzon, what kind of car do you want to make it into??
