Meet with the Porsche team copywriter and discuss it.

"Because 9 1 1 has Du ("poison ")!" Answer me, why do you have the first car? When Porsche 9 1 1 bought the second and third cars, Mr. Zhai, the president of China 9 1 1 Club, even overshadowed his diamond earrings. What kind of man is a real car lover? I think Mr Zhai is one of the representatives.

This silver 9 1 1 "classic car" is his third 9 1 1 and the oldest one. Due to the limited space, the other two 9 1 1 cannot be present for the time being, and will meet you by video. This silver 9 1 1 is not a temporary product at first glance, but the years have not left too many traces on this air-cooled 91/swan song model, which really makes me envy! The most rare thing is that this fourth-generation 9 1 1(993) has legal procedures and can be opened at any time. And more domestic 9 1 1 "classic cars" can only grow old in garages and various exhibition halls ... If this car is parked here, it will bring endless topics.

Q: Since when do you think you should own a Porsche 9 1 1?

Mr. Zhai: Although I like Porsche 9 1 1, my first car was not Porsche 9 1 1. I became attached to 9 1 1 as early as 2008, and I participated in a Porsche track activity. To say that Yan value is love at first sight, then after some experience on the track, I am deeply infatuated with TA! And I am very eager to have a 9 1 1! In 20 14, I got the first 9 1 1 in my life, which belonged to the latest generation model at that time (the seventh generation 99 1) and was my gift to my wife.

Q: After having the first Porsche 9 1 1, why did you have the second and third Porsche?

Mr. Zhai: Mr. Zhai's answer to this question is a bit unexpected. Instead of praising the three cars, he summed it up in one sentence, that is, "because 9 1 1 has Du ("poison ")!" This answer is ok! Is an irrefutable reason!

Since 1964 introduced the first generation of 9 1 1, Porsche 9 1 1 has developed into the eighth generation. Why did he choose these three 9 1 1? I'm curious.

Porsche 4th Generation 9 1 1(993)

Q: What are the characteristics of these three Porsche models 9 1 1?

Mr. Zhai: Before I chose to own these three Porsche 9 1 1, I also thoroughly studied the history of 9 1 1. My three 9 1 1 cars are very distinctive! Let's start with the silver 993, the third four-generation model I bought. This generation is the last generation of 9 1 1 air-cooled engine cars. It first appeared at the Frankfurt Motor Show on September 9, 1993, which is very rare in China. There are no two cars in the country that can legally drive normally. The former owner of my car was a resident of Hong Kong, Canada and an old overseas Chinese. This car was brought in from abroad on 1994, which is the first batch of models, although it is a Guangdong license plate. The former owner usually maintained it well without any modification. When I took over, the car only ran more than 30 thousand kilometers, and the interior was almost "0" worn.

The fifth generation model 996 is my second 9 1 1. This model is the first generation of 9 1 1 equipped with water-cooled engine, and it is also the most controversial 9 1 1. The controversial point is that it adopts the "tearful eye" headlight design, and it is the only model in 9 1 1 eighth generation that does not use round lights. But even though there was controversy, this generation of 996 finally produced more than 70,000 vehicles, which was better than the previous generation of 9 1 1! So this car is really a special generation of 9 1 1. I don't think it is special, because this model was not widely recognized by the public at that time. In fact, everyone agrees. This is the first time to use water cooling system, so this one is also revolutionary. I have a legendary one.

Compared with the seventh 9 1 1 (991), my first 91is the product of the new era. This model is the last generation naturally aspirated engine of 9 1 1 series, and it is also the first generation model that 9 1 1 began to move towards a new design. In terms of appearance, it feels wider and lower. The configuration is also very rich, and there are many electronic devices, which are becoming more and more scientific and technological. To sum up, my three models are very classic!

Q: What do you think is the soul of 9 1 1 after becoming the owner of three Porsche cars?

Mr. Zhai: I think 9 1 1 is one of the few models with inheritance since the first generation was officially listed in the 1960s. A copy written by Porsche officials summed it up very well, which moved me very much: it lasts forever! The seemingly simple four words are actually the soul of Porsche 9 1 1! I believe that whenever these four words are mentioned, they all apply to 9 1 1.

Q: Porsche 9 1 1 came all the way from the 1960s. What historical moments have impressed you most during its slow evolution?

Mr. Zhai: Many friends call Porsche 9 1 1 "Frog Prince", which is a classic design of "Frog Eye". Judging from the original models, there is a slip-back design and a rear-drive layout. The "five-ring instrument" is all said above: it will last forever! The essence of these four words is also a style that I personally appreciate and like.

Q: Then the question comes again. How to treat the appearance style of "eternity"? Suppose the next generation car is "reborn" and becomes something else, will you still love TA?

Mr. Zhai: For a 9 1 1 fan like me, the development of 9 1 1 for decades is actually not what you said. Always changing, just making reservations in the process of changing. Many people say that Porsche designers are the easiest. Actually, this statement is wrong. In fact, it is the most difficult to change under the condition of keeping the "frog eye", slip back design and rear drive layout unchanged. I think the designer of Porsche is also one of the greatest car designers in the world.

Q: How to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of the current Porsche 9 1 1(992)?

Mr. Zhai: If I were to judge, many advantages and disadvantages are caused by * * * *. The latest generation of models still retains the classic body shape, and the car is wider, bigger and better looking. However, unlike the original design intention of 9 1 1, many domestic senior players say that there is no 9 1 1 after 993. Better driving is convenient for a new generation of car owners, rear wheel steering improves safety, and the playability of rear-mounted rear drive is also reduced. More electronic devices make this generation of cars smarter, but they don't have the extreme sense of control of classic cars. So it's "gain and loss." If it is slotted, I personally think the biggest design shortcoming is the handle and the pick, which I don't like very much!

Q: How has life changed after owning these three Porsche 9 1 1?

Mr. Zhai: The biggest change is that the so-called happiness and satisfaction have improved. Just as children get their favorite toys, happiness becomes pure! Secondly, the "China 9 1 1 Owners Club" was established. I didn't think so much about fame and fortune. In fact, neither the members of the club nor I want to be an "internet celebrity". Everyone's topics and actions revolve around cars. Except for our club members, basically no one knows our car, and Porsche officials may not even know it. I just want to be a pure club with feelings, even a 9 1 1 club where children can become members in the future. Our two children booked my 9 1 1. Daughter likes 993 and son likes 996.

Q: Why was the 9 1 1 club established? What is the difference between it and other sports car clubs? What are the characteristics of the owner?

Mr. Zhai: Actually, auto clubs are not new. They originated in foreign countries where the automobile industry developed earlier. With the growth of domestic car ownership, various forms and scales of car clubs have risen rapidly, but overall, the forms are still somewhat similar. But our club is still a little different.

As early as 20 14, I played with several riders who were also 9 1 1 for more than a year. Then China 96438+05+02 was jointly launched by me, the French political commissar, Miliki, Hunter and Vito. Let's talk about the difference first. We are a single super-running club, which is different from other super-running clubs, but it is also a * * * similarity of other super-running club members, that is, super-running owners can't bypass a 9 1 1 all their lives! Our members are owners of many top-class cars, some of them are supercars, and they will be members of other supercars clubs, but everyone will have one thing, that is, they all have different models of Porsche 9 1 1!

Q: Are you ready to own the fourth Porsche 9 1 1? If so, which one will it be?

Mr. Zhai: There may be a fourth one! Because of addiction! In the fourth paragraph, older models will be considered first, that is, the third generation 9 1 1(964) is the next goal and also a sentimental idea. However, in China, such old cars are really rare. If there is no fate, the latest generation model, the eighth generation 9 1 1(992) will not be excluded. Are you more concerned about 992 traga or trubo? S, as for the gears and picks I don't like in this generation, I can only bear it!

Q: How difficult is it to buy a classic car in China? Can you give us some "practical experience"?

Mr Zhai: It's really difficult because of the fault of automobile culture in China. Many classic cars have only ten digits in China, and some have only single digits. Finding a girlfriend is more difficult than being single. Because the amount is too small, and it is basically impossible to meet on the road, everything can only rely on fate. There is also the word equality. It is hard to say whether it can meet the psychological expectations, so the mentality is very important!

Q: Where do you often drive one of them to spend money? Is there any special place to recommend?

Mr. Zhai: I am very busy. Generally, it doesn't cost money (a face-covering expression is needed here). I left it to my wife. At present, among my three 9 1 1 vehicles, the seventh generation 9 1 1(99 1) has the highest usage rate, because it is a local license plate in Shanghai and can be elevated. The other two models, 993 and 996, are rarely opened, and they are opened once a month or so to keep the car in good condition.

Q: Besides collecting Porsche 9 1 1, what other hobbies do you have?

Mr Zhai: Is it a hobby to take care of children (there should be applause here)? I am a family-oriented man. I like being with my family, traveling with my family and seeing the world together, but I can't go anywhere this year. I hope the epidemic situation will improve next year, and we can travel with the whole family.

Q: Can you talk about your career path?

Mr. Zhai: My understanding of the trajectory is: keep falling, get up after failure, continue to look for new projects worth investing, and continue to work together with a group of new entrepreneurs. If you are not satisfied with the status quo, you will always be rewarded in the end!

Q: Give some advice to small partners who are ready to start a business or struggle in your industry.

Mr. Zhai: A thousand words can be summed up in one sentence: Don't give up easily! Hold on a little longer! You must have the mentality of winning without arrogance and losing with grace, and you will have a chance to succeed!

Q: Besides 9 1 1, what other cars do you have? What is the reason for choosing? Can you share the advantages and disadvantages?

Mr Zhai: I used to like compact cars, but now I have changed. Besides three 9 1 1, I also have two 7-seat carts, Lincoln navigator and Buick GL8. These two 7-seater cars were selected from many 7-seater models after a year. The reason for choosing them is the large space and convenient travel for the whole family. These two cars are easy to drive and comfortable, which can give my family a good experience!

Q: Would you consider buying a Porsche brand other than 9 1 1?

Mr. Zhai: If I say there is no Porsche except 9 1 1, will someone hit me? The truth is that everyone likes it but has no money to buy it. If someone gives it, I want it (happy smile).

Q: What is the next "small goal" in life?

Mr. Zhai: I hope to retire early and drive my baby car 9 1 1 to see the world and taste delicious food!

Knot? Language: I am old and still open my beloved 9 1 1 ...

A story about old boys and his three 9 1 1 cars is actually much more than that. The process from meeting to liking to owning, and then to owning, choosing and owning is actually the best experience. For Porsche 99 1, after decades of development and eight generations of evolution, it still maintains its original styling style, and it is also the only car in the sports car industry that always adheres to its original appearance. This is the so-called "unchanging mind". You haven't changed much. You are getting more and more handsome! Mr. Zhai finally said, I have already thought about this picture: my hair is gray and I am still opening 9 1 1! Then his two children each drove a 9 1 1. What a beautiful and enviable picture ...
