Chapter 434 The New Big Three
Although the overall size of the African market is relatively small, especially compared to Europe, America and the domestic market, the entire African continent can bring little profit to Mercedes-Benz, and considering the environment in Africa, the cost will be even higher.

But no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat. The African continent has a large population base. If it is well developed, it will definitely bring Feichi to a higher level.

As long as the African market is captured, Feichi Company will basically be able to achieve full coverage of the global market. In this way, Feichi Company will become a real multinational company!

"By the way, what were the sales figures announced by the three giants Dafeng, Benma and Fortuna the year before last?" Zhou Fei suddenly asked curiously.

If Mercedes-Benz's sales exceeded 650 million last year, will Mercedes-Benz's sales historically enter the top three in the world?
After all, Zhou Fei remembers that the selection threshold for the Big Three seems to be around 600 million!
Especially in the past few years, as the sales of Feichi Company have increased year by year, the annual sales of the Big Three have also declined to varying degrees, and the threshold for the Big Three has become lower and lower. With his performance, maybe he can also enter the top three in the world and become one of the new Big Three!
"I'll search it right away!" Zhang Xiang also understood Zhou Fei's meaning at once, and quickly took out his mobile phone to search. Soon, Zhang Xiang raised his head again and said,

"The sales volume of Dafeng Automobile the year before last was 732 million, the sales volume of the second-ranked Benma Automobile was 694 million units, and the sales volume of the third-ranked Futong Automobile was only 652 million units!"

It ranked third in the world the year before last, with sales of only 652 million vehicles!

If, just if, the sales volume of Futong Motors does not increase, or does not increase much, then Mercedes-Benz will be the new No. [-] in the world!

Of course, the sales of Foton Motors may also increase significantly, but if considering the fact that the sales of Foton Motors have all been declining in the past three years, the probability of Mercedes-Benz becoming the new Big Three is even greater!
Although there is only one difference between No.4 and No.3, the concept is completely different. Feichi Company also needs a name like "Big Three" as a publicity gimmick to further enhance the company's overall value!
"The sales data of Dafeng Motors last year hasn't been announced yet, right?" Zhou Fei continued to ask.

"Nothing." Zhang Xiang quickly shook his head, "New Year's Day just ended, according to the previous rules, I estimate that these three companies should all announce within two weeks."

This is the closest time Feichi Company has come to the threshold of the Big Three. Anyone who changes the company will probably be very surprised!

"Okay, let's be the last one to announce the data this time, and we will announce it to the public after the announcement of the three companies of Dafeng is over!" Zhou Fei said quickly.

If it is really possible to rank among the Big Three, then Feichi Company will be a model of making a fortune silently!
"Also, send me your sales report as soon as possible. I want to study it more carefully." Zhou Fei immediately added.

"Understood, I will definitely send it to Mr. Zhou this afternoon." Zhang Xiang replied quickly.

At the same time, the headquarters of Consumer Reports in the United States.

Every year at this time, the magazine will select the list of the world's top ten automakers based on the sales data released by major automakers, and this year is no exception.

Exxon has been responsible for the selection of this list for many years. Although he has been promoted to the editor-in-chief of Consumer Reports, he will still participate in the selection of this list personally at this time of year.

"Haven't the sales data of companies like Dafeng, Futong, and Benma have been announced yet?" Looking at the statistical report sent by his assistant, Exxon asked curiously.

"Nothing, these three companies are usually the last to announce." The assistant quickly replied.

"I haven't seen the data of Feichi Company, did you miss it?" Exxon continued to ask. According to his memory, Feichi Company should be the first batch released.

"The Feichi company hasn't released it yet. I even called to find out and said that it will take a while." The assistant also replied with a puzzled expression.

A few years ago, as soon as New Year's Day ended, Feichi Company would announce last year's sales data, but this year was uncharacteristically unexpected.

"I see. If you have the data of these companies, send them to me as soon as possible." Exxon nodded without saying anything.

The sales volume of Mercedes-Benz Company in the year before last exceeded 500 million unprecedentedly, and successfully ranked fourth. Exxon has also been thinking, when will Mercedes-Benz Company's sales volume rank among the top three in the world?

To be honest, Exxon is also looking forward to this day. After all, at that time, the traditional Big Three will be replaced by the new Big Three. Exxon is naturally very excited to witness the change of dynasty.

"Is it possible that the sales volume of Mercedes-Benz this year will be able to surpass Futong Motors and successfully rank third?" Exon sat at his desk and muttered in a low voice.

But soon, Exxon denied this idea, "Impossible, the sales volume of Mercedes-Benz company just exceeded 500 million the year before last, how could it be possible to increase sales by more than 100 million last year, this year is definitely not possible, at least it will not be until next year! "

A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. No matter how much the sales of Futong Motors decline, they will not fall below 600 million. It is impossible for Mercedes-Benz to chase more than 100 million sales in a year.

In this way, the time passed day by day. As it entered the second half of January, Benma Automobile took the lead in announcing the sales data of last year. The cumulative sales volume reached 736 million, which was a slight increase compared to the previous year, but the increase was not large. .

Not long after Benma Motor announced its sales data, Dafeng Motor also announced its sales situation, but it still maintained a downward trend in sales. Last year's total sales were only 712 million, a cumulative decline of 30 vehicles!
With the announcement of the sales volume of these two companies, a shocking situation appeared: the sales volume of Dafeng Automobile was historically lower than that of Benma Automobile!

This also means that the global sales champion in the automotive industry is likely to change hands!
Benma Motors has been chasing after Dafeng for more than ten years, and finally surpassed Dafeng Motors last year, and its sales volume successfully surpassed Dafeng Motors!

Although Futong and Mercedes-Benz have not announced their sales data, the probability that the sales of these two companies will be higher than Mercedes-Benz is basically zero, so if there is no accident, Mercedes-Benz will become the new car. The global sales champion!
However, the shock brought to Exxon by the exchange of positions between Benma Motor and Dafeng Motor was far less shocking than the following news:
Futong and Feichi announced their sales figures for last year almost on the same day. Among them, Feichi's total sales reached 672 million units, while Futong only had 614 million units, lagging far behind Feichi!

In this way, the new Big Three in the automotive industry will be born!
