How can I justify myself as a Magnate if I don't indulge myself? Chapter 317 - 153: The Wealthy Mini-Class Begins
As an A-level car show, it is a large-scale international exhibition...
Although it does not compare to the Geneva Auto Show, it still brings together major car brands from around the world...
This car show was divided into five exhibition halls...
There were new car launches by regular brands, as well as new product unveilings by high-end brands...
Hall 5 was the most attention-grabbing exhibition hall at the Capital International Auto Show...
It gathered supercar dealers from all over the world.
Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Bentley, Aston Martin, Koenigsegg, among other luxury car models, were all available here...
Fu Songyang, as Koenigsegg’s general agent in Hua Country and a top tycoon in the dostic auto industry, was currently acting as the temporary spokesperson for Koenigsegg, facing the barrage of dia reporters, introducing Koenigsegg’s first supercar to be launched in Hua Country in 2024, the Koenigsegg Gera.
"This supercar is nad Gera, which originates from two Swedish words and was nad by the founder’s mother of Koenigsegg.
Considering the car’s power, configuration, and space, its na can be extended to an: whatever you want, I can give you. Our agency translates this car as Koenigsegg Ruya."
As his words fell, whether it were the onlooking reporters or the exhibitors, all burst into applause.
As for Gu Heng...
He stood in the crowd, unmoved...
He wasn’t interested in the na of the supercar; to him, the nas ant nothing unless it was the only one of its kind.
Looking at the supercar in front of him, which was similar in color to the first Bentley Flying Spur he had bought, Gu Heng was already feeling envious...
Almost every supercar dealer’s vehicle has a particularly strong recognizability...
Even without a car emblem, anyone with a slight understanding of supercars can tell the differences between Ferrari, Lamborghini, and Koenigsegg at a glance...
As the applause stopped, Fu Songyang continued to speak, "I believe many people already know the specs of this Koenigsegg Gera beforehand, so I will focus on its controversial point.
This supercar, in Europe, many dia outlets have given it a derogatory label.
’Three-cylinder supercar.’
Although Gu Heng liked supercars, his affection was always superficial...
He liked the cool exterior of supercars, whereas performance and speed were secondary to him...
So he generally didn’t understand much about supercar configurations.
Fu Songyang kept his eyes on Gu Heng while talking, as if this introduction was ant for him alone...
"Let us compare the specs. As everyone knows, the Porsche 918 has a V12 engine, 4.6L displacent, and its maximum engine power is 447km. However, the Koenigsegg Gera right in front of everyone here, with an L3 engine and 2.0L displacent, reaches a maximum engine power of 450km.
I believe everyone has now made their comparison.
Although Gera’s three cylinders lack a sense of dignity compared to the three big legendary cars, it triumphs with its high power output. Just 1L of displacent can deliver 225kW of power, literally breaking through the sky, doing the work of 12 cylinders with just three.
The reason is that Gera applied the Freevalve technology that Koenigsegg is proud of for the first ti, which uses a complex structure of electromagnetic and pneumatic systems to freely control the opening and closing of engine valves without needing a camshaft; the valves open whenever needed, close when wanted, and are 100% controllable, further tapping into the potential of the internal combustion engine."
Fu Songyang beca more enthusiastic as he spoke...
Gu Heng on the other hand, was completely foggy...
When it ca to the press’ question ti, finally soone asked, "Could Fu Song reveal the release price of this Koenigsegg Gera in Hua Country?"
"Since its official announcent at the Geneva Auto Show in 2023, the Koenigsegg Gera has received orders from over 150 top tycoons worldwide, but it should be ntioned that this is a limited edition supercar.
Only 300 units globally.
Approximately 200 units have already been sold.
As for the price, let put it this way, on the secondary market in Europe, the price of the Koenigsegg Gera has already reached nearly four million US dollars. However, Koenigsegg is not a used car dealer; we will only sell at the suggested retail price.
The price of this car is set at 19.8 million yuan in Hua Country."
After announcing the price, Fu Songyang imdiately shifted his questioning gaze toward Gu Heng...
The aning was simple...
I’ve introduced the car and told you the price...
Now whether to buy or not is up to you.
Gu Heng instantly understood his implication and, under the gaze of nurous reporters, moved forward a few steps and directly asked, "Are you selling the display car?"
Upon hearing this, Fu Songyang imdiately burst into laughter.
About Gu Heng wanting to buy the display car, he had already discussed it with Koenigsegg Company beforehand, and they were willing to give this face to the general agent directly agreeing...
Thinking of this, Fu Songyang quickly signaled to a staff mber nearby, who then placed a ’Sold’ sign on Gerema’s roof, smiling and saying, "Of course for sale, congratulations to Gu Heng for becoming the first owner of the Koenigsegg Gera in Hua Country."
Reporter: "???"
Onlooking crowd: "???"
What’s going on here?
The car show had just begun, and a supercar worth 20 million was sold just like that?
Journalists, who were distressed over the lack of topics, started frantically taking photos of Gu Heng...
They had already planned the headline for the upcoming news...
"Sold in seconds! Mysterious young tycoon from Hua Country splashes 19.8 million, becos the first Koenigsegg Gera owner in the country!"
Just then, Koenigsegg’s product manager, after briefly communicating with Fu Songyang, approached Gu Heng, extended his right hand, and started speaking in a language that Gu Heng totally couldn’t understand...
