85: Ten years of rust prevention? You're kidding!

Chapter 85 Ten Years Rust-Proof? What the Heck Are You Bragging About?!

Bai Xiaoying pointed her camera at the exhibition stand: “Fans, do you see those red cloths? The new vehicle is covered underneath them.”

“Xiao Ying, where are the family members of the fan group?”

“Them? A bunch of heartless people, they already went to look around on their own.”

“Speaking of Julong Steel putting on such a big show, if the new vehicle launch event fails, that would be a huge joke.”

“The person upstairs must be dreaming, right? It’s just an agricultural vehicle, flipping over? Impossible.”

“I heard that Longying Drones can be ordered on site. Can Xiao Ying help me bring one?”

“There’s such a good thing? How come I didn’t know.”

“Invited guests have a special privilege: all attending audience members can purchase a Longying Drone at its original price and receive a Julong Steel Pipe as a gift.”

“Damn it? I’ll pay a high price for a ticket.”

“Too late, yesterday tickets were already resold for 3,000 each, and those were still for the back rows with no seats.”

“Damn it! Why didn’t anyone tell me about such a good thing?”

“Don’t you look at the seafood market? The scalpers have gone crazy!”

Unlike the fans in Bai Xiaoying’s live stream, the military enthusiasts in Brother Qi’s and A Ding’s live streams requested the streamers to film the Julong Steel Pipe and the Longying Drone Type 01 up close.

Brother Qi introduced: “The craftsmanship of this thing isn’t complicated; it’s just extremely high quality, high-temperature resistant, and corrosion-proof.”

“It’s truly a bazooka prototype; I’ll collect one if I get the chance.”

“The Heavenly Soldiers were tormented to death by this thing. Julong Steel is awesome!”

“The Heavenly Soldiers are completely alienation (alienated). Were there mass graves a few days ago? They killed all the old, weak, women, and children.”

“This kind of trash flowing for a thousand years is light; pray for the Desert Camel’s ultimate victory.”

“Is that Lu Shenwei walking on stage? He looks so young.”

“His surname is Lu, young and promising, so he’s called Lu Shenwei?”

“I burst out laughing. Director Lu’s name definitely means to be cautious in speech and action, not to refrain from doing good even if it’s small. With you, it’s completely changed.”

“Please introduce me to someone. I heard Director Lu doesn’t have a girlfriend yet.”

“Do you see the female streamer with the bun on the opposite side? Bai Xiaoying, Director Lu’s rumored girlfriend.”

“Don’t joke around. How could Xiao Ying, who single-handedly captured the Eight Qi Great Serpent, be paired with Director Lu? You’re randomly matchmaking.”

Amidst everyone’s chatter, the longmao agricultural vehicle new vehicle launch event officially began.

Lu Shenwei ascended the stage amidst cheers and explained: “Friends from all walks of life, I am now honored to solemnly introduce Julong Steel’s flagship product – the new longmao agricultural vehicle!”

“He’s handsome, even in a work uniform, he looks good.”

“That’s with the money filter applied. He’s worth hundreds of millions, you’re joking.”

“The new generation longmao agricultural vehicle incorporates the excellent design language of the previous generation, still adhering to a minimalist industrial style. The longmao agricultural vehicle Type 02 improved model is equipped with Julong Steel’s self-developed Liuguang anti-rust technology, guaranteeing ten years of rust protection.”

“What the heck? Ten years of rust protection? Is that fake?”

“That’s a big boast. Chang’an Ford has the best rust protection, and they only dare to say eight years of rust protection.”

“One hundred years of Ford, ruined by Chang’an. Joint venture Ford is out. If we’re comparing, it should be parallel imports.”

“If it’s not bragging, Julong Steel has already won this round with just ten years of rust protection.”

In District Chief’s and Lord Lian’s live streams, various car enthusiasts were also commenting.

“District Chief, what do you think? Is ten years of rust protection bragging?”

“Exactly, ten years of rust protection for an agricultural vehicle is too exaggerated.”

“Let me state in advance, I don’t have any inside information, but judging from Julong Steel’s past promotions, it’s most likely true,” District Chief said loudly.

After receiving the commercial order, District Chief carefully researched Julong Steel’s rise to prominence. An enterprise repeatedly sanctioned by the Eagle Sauce Defense Department, it not only did not collapse but grew stronger and stronger.

To say they have shady dealings or false advertising, District Chief wouldn’t believe a single word.

However, from his years of experience accepting money for car reviews, ten years of rust protection is indeed difficult.

“District Chief used to collect money one by one; this time, he’s probably collecting it in bundles.”

“Ten years of rust protection, I don’t think it’s reliable. It would be amazing if it could even compare to the Eagle Country’s century-old car companies.”

“Brothers, are you forgetting something? This is an agricultural vehicle, not a passenger car.”

The same situation was brewing in Lord Lian’s live stream, but Lord Lian, being witty and humorous, quickly defused the awkwardness.

“What if ten years of rust protection can’t be achieved? Let’s not talk about that for now! Any Dragon Xia car company that dares to shout out a slogan is a good one.”

Before Lord Lian finished speaking, a car enthusiast corrected him, stating that Julong Steel is a legitimate steel enterprise.

“Julong Steel isn’t a car company? Let’s not talk about that for now. Julong Steel’s past products are exquisitely made, and Julong Steel Pipe and Longying Drone are sold overseas!”

But no sooner had he spoken than another car enthusiast immediately retorted.

“The first generation longmao agricultural vehicle was poorly made, with rust on the chassis and drive shaft, and severe quality issues?”

Lord Lian frowned deeply. How am I supposed to “clean” this?

“Let’s not talk about that for now. Julong Steel has already announced a recall of all problematic vehicles for complete replacement.”

Now you can’t refute me, right? Hehe.

Lord Lian was secretly pleased, but was instantly slapped in the face.

“What did you say? Not many first-generation longmao agricultural vehicles were sold in total, and they all had problems.”

“Uh… this, everyone, don’t always dwell on past issues. Let’s watch the press conference, watch the press conference,” Lord Lian said awkwardly.

“It’s not that the streamer isn’t trying hard, but it’s just too hard to clean up.”

“I admit that Julong Steel’s other products are very good, but let’s just forget about the longmao agricultural vehicle.”

“Even the streamer can’t clean it up, haven’t you seen?”

Various streamers were desperately live-streaming, and fans were throwing rotten eggs at each other, mostly with a mind to watch the longmao agricultural vehicle launch event for the spectacle.

On stage, Lu Shenwei spoke passionately, completely unaffected by the boos from below.

“In addition to being equipped with Liuguang anti-rust technology, we have also comprehensively upgraded the performance of the longmao agricultural vehicle. With a full tank of gas, on paved roads, 30 liters of gasoline can travel 400 kilometers, with a maximum speed of 100 kilometers per hour, and the wheels have been fully upgraded.”

“The rear compartment dimensions have been fully expanded to 120cm, making it more convenient for farmers to transport goods.”

“The overall vehicle length has been upgraded to 4.2 meters, with a curb weight of 2 tons, a rated load capacity of 900 kilograms, equipped with a 1.5 T gasoline engine, front and rear double-row seats, allowing a maximum of four people to ride.”

“Isn’t this just a small pickup truck? It sounds somewhat decent.”

“The curb weight is a bit exaggerated, but the load capacity is decent.”

“It can carry small items. If the price isn’t over 40,000, I might consider buying one to play around with.”

“A gasoline engine isn’t suitable, is it? Cheaper diesel is more suitable for rural use.”

“Hurry up and announce the final price. If it’s over 30,000, farmers probably won’t consider it.”

Seeing that the atmosphere was well-built, Lu Shenwei immediately announced loudly: “Improved quality, no price increase! The final price of the longmao agricultural vehicle Type 02 improved model is — 19,800! At the same time, you can also enjoy a 1,500 agricultural machinery subsidy!”

19,800? And a 1,500 agricultural machinery subsidy?

Holy cow! Is Julong Steel crazy? Selling at a loss?
