Chapter 103: free advertising

Qin Tian has always attached great importance to the automobile industry. Because this can not only bring huge profits, but also further promote the development of industrialization and enhance the country's overall strength.

Qin Tian clearly remembered that since the first Ford Model T car was born on September 27, 1908, a total of 15 million Model T cars had been produced. This is undoubtedly an extremely large number. If Daimler can sell so many cars, even surpassing Ford's Model T, this will undoubtedly make Daimler overwhelm other car companies and become a real giant in the automotive field.

"Then let's arrange it like this. On January 1st, the B-class car, A-class car and C-class car will be launched first. After they are developed, they will be introduced to the market at an appropriate time. Whether Daimler can become a legend depends on this time." That's right. Especially the C-class car, we must speed up the progress of research and development. It is best to put it on the market in the first half of next year." Qin Tian urged.

Qin Tian hoped that Daimler would be able to launch the C-class car before Ford launched the Model T, so that the model car would block Ford. In this case, even if Ford cannot be suppressed in the North American market, at least it can seize the European market. You know, the current European market is much larger than the US market. Only by occupying the European market can we be able to rule the roost in this industry.

"Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince." William Maybach nodded heavily. Although, he didn't know why Qin Tian had such a strict requirement on time. But he knew that Qin Tian always had his reasons for making such a request.

"Has our truck been developed yet?" Qin Tian asked.

Although cars are very important, Qin Tian also attaches great importance to trucks. Qin Tian hoped that the German Army would become the first army in the world to completely replace mules and horses with cars.

"Your Highness, the research and development has been completed and a prototype has been produced. Please move on, Your Highness." William Maybach said.

Qin Tian followed William Maybach to the place where the truck was parked. I have to admit that the truck developed by Daimler looks very crude. However, it has also possessed most of the characteristics of later generations of trucks. Of course, in terms of performance, it may not be able to compare with the trucks of later generations. This is because there is still a big gap between the current technological conditions and the future generations.

"Your Highness, this is the truck we designed. It can carry cargo weighing up to 1.5 tons, and its maximum speed can reach 40 kilometers per hour." William Maybach said.

Qin Tian nodded, although in Qin Tian's eyes, such a truck is nothing but rubbish. However, in the current situation, such performance is already very good.

"How's the reliability?" Qin Tian asked.

Qin Tian intends to promote this truck to the military. If the reliability is not good, the military will definitely not accept it. The military doesn't want these cars transporting supplies to the front line to lose their chains after the outbreak of the war. In that case, it will seriously affect the front line warfare.

"Your Highness, we have already conducted a reliability test. Basically, there will be no major problems. However, minor problems will inevitably occur. However, as long as there are accessories and specially trained personnel, it will be easy to solve. No It has too much impact on the use." William Daimler said.

"Hmm!" Qin Tian knew that under the constraints of technical conditions, such problems were inevitable. But at least the problem of having or not has been solved. In another time and space, the reliability of German tanks in World War II was also not good? But the German army still achieved amazing results with such weapons.

"The reliability of the truck should be improved as much as possible. After all, our main customer will be the army." Qin Tian said.

"Yes, Your Royal Highness. The research and development department will conduct further research on this issue, and strive to further improve reliability." William Maybach said.

"Is this truck named?" Qin Tian asked. 𝐟𝙧ee𝔀e𝐛𝓃𝐨𝚟𝑒𝗹.c𝗼𝚖

"not yet."

"Then let's name this truck a Maybach truck!" Qin Tian said.

"Yes, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Paul Daimler nodded.

William Maybach beside him, his old face has turned into a chrysanthemum with a smile. As the original founder of Daimler, it is also a very high honor for him to make his name the name of a car.

Qin Tian didn't stay long in Stuttgart, and left the next afternoon. However, he left with him, as well as one hundred Daimler B-class cars produced in advance by Daimler Motor Company. Qin Tian planned to give away these cars. Of course, this is also an advertisement for Daimler. The people Qin Tian wanted to send were all big figures in the empire, including the emperor, important members of the royal family, government prime ministers and other ministers, as well as senior officials of the navy and army, and other important entrepreneurs.

Once their cars are replaced by Daimler B-class cars, this is undoubtedly a free advertisement. Once the Daimler B-class car is actually on the market, it will definitely cause hot sales.

"Father, this is a car produced by my car company. It was specially given to Father as a means of transportation. Father can take a test ride. How is the comfort compared to the car produced by the Mercedes-Benz company before?" Qin Tian With a smile on his face, he said to William II. 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚

King William II looked at the Daimler B-class car parked in front of him with a look of surprise. Compared with his previous cars, the Daimler B-class car undoubtedly has a crushing advantage in terms of appearance and performance.

Afterwards, William II got into the car and took a circle in the palace. Comfortable seats, excellent shock absorption system and sound insulation facilities make the ride experience in the car very good.

"Oscar, a very good car. It's unbelievable that your car company can produce such an excellent car, which is very good." William II naturally praised Qin Tian greatly.

"Thank you, Father, I will work harder." Qin Tian replied.

Qin Tian believed that once Wilhelm II and other important imperial ministers replaced their cars with Daimler B-class cars, this car from Daimler would definitely become popular before it went on sale.

Although, one hundred Daimler B-class cars are worth as much as one million marks. But the advertising effect formed is definitely not something that one million marks can achieve. Qin Tian is tantamount to letting these big shots in the empire advertise his products for free.
