■ Interview Dialogue with Global CEO Ge Weihua “It is easy to realize the experience center model is the advantage of our latecomers”
Reporter: Ford proposed to spend 5 billion yuan to make the Lincoln brand in the next five years. How is this 5 billion used? It is said that in the past two years, the Lincoln brand has spent 2 billion in China. What kind of money is it used for?
Ge Weihua: Ford is reviving the Lincoln brand and spares no effort in terms of capital and resources. These investments include investment in products, and there is a large amount of investment in manufacturing, brand marketing, network construction and training. Of course, we can't discuss every expenditure one by one, but Ford's global management is full of confidence and full support for revitalizing the Lincoln brand.
Reporter: When Lincoln introduced the product into China, he made a lot of special designs for Chinese consumers. Will he launch exclusive models in the Chinese market in the future? Is there a plan, such as Lincoln’s annual sales of tens of thousands of vehicles in China?
Ge Weihua: We don't comment on future products, but what I can say is that we are constantly researching each market, looking for more opportunities, and meeting the needs of consumers, designing models that consumers like.
In addition, for Chinese consumers, the interior space is very important, and in our future model design, it will also improve the spaciousness of the interior.
At present, we do not have a domestic plan. Now all Lincoln models are imported into China by import.
Reporter: As a relatively late brand entering the Chinese market, what opportunities will Lincoln have at this time?
Ge Weihua: We believe that Lincoln is now the best time to enter China. In the past two years, Lincoln has carefully studied competitors and learned some lessons from the luxury brands already on the market, including their public relations information, network construction, product strategy, etc., which are valuable to us. Reference.
In the Chinese market, there are already many old luxury car brands that have existed for many years. It is very difficult to realize the transition from transaction-centric to experience-centered mode, because their networks have been widely spread and the number is already very large. It is very difficult to make such fundamental changes. This is the advantage of our latecomers.
