Chapter 233 Unimog arrives, modification begins!
Next, Li Younan's plan was undoubtedly to speed up the process of modifying his Unimog.

However, the first problem that needs to be solved right now is where to make the changes.

This issue isn't too difficult to resolve. The Unimog's chassis and body were legally imported, but to convert it into a roadworthy motorhome, it's necessary to use the qualifications of a motorhome company.

Given his current influence on the internet, it's believed that as long as the news is released, many manufacturers will be willing to take this opportunity to promote themselves.

During this process, Li Younan certainly didn't forget to film a video.

The upcoming 318 road trip and the previous car modifications are excellent video material. He plans to create a series of videos to record his modification process in detail.

Li Younan drove his Land Cruiser to pick up the car, which had been transported by a logistics company and placed in a logistics center near Chengdu.

On the way, Li Younan explained his plan in detail to the camera: "I will personally handle the entire modification of this car, so please stay tuned!"

It was a sunny day. Li Younan finally arrived at the logistics center and saw the Unimog imported directly from abroad.

The Unimog's length isn't actually that exaggerated; the vehicle is less than 6 meters long, only about 5.995 meters, which can be driven with a C license.

Its main feature is its height; the front of the vehicle is about 3.4 meters high, and with the box body, it can reach about 3.5 to 3.6 meters high!
At this time, the vehicle had not yet been fitted with the all-aluminum alloy body imported directly from the European headquarters; it only had a front end and chassis.

Li Younan examined it in detail.

With his current electrical and repair skills, he can tell at a glance whether there is a problem with the car.

After his inspection, he confirmed that the car was indeed brand new and flawless.

The Unimog is a high-end off-road vehicle under Mercedes-Benz, equipped with a 4-cylinder inline diesel engine, portal axle system, coil spring suspension, and central tire deflation system, making it fully equipped for off-road use.

Li Younan couldn't wait to get into the car and drive around for a bit.

At this time, there were only a dozen liters of fuel left in the carriage. Li Younan had just had his fill and was quite satisfied.

He had already begun to have a detailed modification plan in mind.

All of Li Younan's modifications were geared towards preparing for the upcoming 318 journey.

In fact, due to the fame of the 318 National Highway in the domestic long-distance travel sector over the years, the infrastructure along the route has been continuously improved, and those particularly difficult sections of the road are now very rare.

There are a few isolated areas where, due to environmental conditions, there are some bad roads or temporary collapses, but overall, they are not difficult to travel.

However, Li Younan's plan was not to completely follow the national highways. He wanted to visit many places along the way, and there were some scenic spots where he would need to deviate from the national highways. Therefore, the factor of taking bad roads had to be taken into account.

In terms of chassis, no additional modifications are needed. The Unimog's off-road capabilities are already strong enough. Just add a tool kit and two spare tires to the original chassis, and that should be enough to meet Li Younan's needs.

His main focus for the modification was the living area inside the enclosure.

Li Younan's goal is to build a top-of-the-line Unimog motorhome, so every detail must be taken into consideration.

As for how much money it would cost, Li Younan didn't care too much.

He spent nearly 200 million yuan to buy the chassis and body of this car and have it transported here.

But considering the cash he currently has, it's not much, and he wouldn't hesitate to spend another 200 million on renovations.

As expected, not long after Li Younan posted his first video, Liu Yu called to tell him that many brands had contacted him, wanting to sponsor the modification project.

Li Younan was also well aware that, without a doubt, this conversion of the Unimog RV and the subsequent trip would be an excellent promotional opportunity for many product brands.

The brands that contacted Liu Yu were mostly appliance brands, since a motorhome naturally needs to be equipped with a lot of electrical equipment.

However, Li Younan was not in a hurry. He was considering whether he should ask the brand to sponsor this modification.

The benefits of having these brands sponsor you are obvious: you can save a lot of money.

Furthermore, this process is essentially an advertisement.

Each manufacturer's offer reached seven figures. After all, given his current fan base, a few dozen seconds of advertising in a single video can fetch a six-figure price. And once he accepts their sponsorship, those brand devices will appear continuously in all subsequent videos, resulting in massive exposure.

A seven-figure price is very reasonable.

In other words, once you accept sponsorship, you not only don't need to spend money, but you can also make a fortune.

However, the corresponding impact is that after accepting their sponsorship, users will be subject to restrictions from the brand owner to some extent when using their products.

For example, if you later find that an appliance is not suitable and want to replace it, it will involve breach of contract; you also cannot complain about a device if you find it difficult to use.

After careful consideration, Li Younan decided not to accept the brand's sponsorship and to purchase all appliances independently based on his own needs.

Li Younan emphasizes this point in the video: he wants his trip to be pure. He's not short of money right now, and turning his trip into an advertisement for other brands is really unnecessary.

Li Younan now has a very relaxed attitude towards material things.

The system endowed him with too many powerful abilities. With these abilities, he would never have to worry about money. Even if he suddenly became a person with zero assets tomorrow, he could still create considerable wealth in no time by relying on those abilities.

For Li Younan, he will never lack money; it's just that the money is in other people's pockets. When he needs it, he can simply take it from other people's pockets.

His decision will undoubtedly win him the approval of his fans.

Of course, some conspiracy theorists will have their doubts, but Li Younan doesn't care. With his current fan base, he can no longer control the comments of certain people.

A few days later, Li Younan found the largest Unimog RV conversion brand in Southwest China and transported his RV chassis and body to the factory.

Then, led by a staff member, he went to the client meeting room.

The operations manager, accompanied by a designer, received Li Younan.

"Teacher Li, I still don't quite understand what you meant on the phone..."

"Uh, didn't I make it very clear on the phone? What I mean is that I need to use your qualifications, and if necessary, I also need to use your workers and equipment. However, I will personally handle the design of the entire vehicle and some details."

"Of course, you don't need to worry about the expenses."

The manager and designer exchanged a glance, hesitated for a moment, and then the manager said, "Let me introduce you to our top designer. Actually, you just need to tell us your needs, and we guarantee we can design a motorhome that will satisfy you. We have extensive experience..."

Li Younan said nonchalantly, "No need. I'll let you know if I need anything."

Seeing Li Younan's resolute attitude, the two exchanged a glance and decided not to say anything more.

After all, Li Younan is a top streamer with tens of millions of followers, so there's really no need for him to cause dissatisfaction over such a trivial matter.

After seeing Li Younan off, the designer couldn't help but complain, "This guy is too confident. Modifying a campervan is not as simple as he thinks. The sound insulation, heat preservation, internal structural layout, electrical facilities, and so on are all very complicated."

"Isn't he good at carpentry?"

"Manager, you underestimate the design profession. Yes, I admit he is indeed skilled in carpentry, and RVs do require carpentry work, and I have seen him work on things like electrical wiring. But designing an RV is not just about connecting a couple of wires and sawing a few pieces of wood."

The manager shrugged and said, "Alright, stop complaining. Let me tell you, serving such a big streamer isn't necessarily a good thing. What if something doesn't go his way? It could ruin your reputation. It's fine if he doesn't want our services; he's not short of our company's money anyway."

"However, you must publicize that he modified the car himself. We are only responsible for handling the legal matters, so as not to cause problems for us in the future."

The designer muttered to himself, "Yes, a lot of companies make money, but I won't be earning that commission."

He viewed Li Younan's self-modified RV with a sense of amusement.

If Li Younan confidently entrusts this order to him, not only will he be able to earn some money, but he might also be able to make a name for himself in the industry, making it much easier to take on RV orders from big bosses in the future.

The feeling of not achieving one's goal gradually turns into a negative emotion in one's heart.

First of all, there is a bit of jealousy, after all, Li Younan is much younger than him, yet he has achieved so much and can easily earn so much money.

If the converted RV overturns, that would be something to be happy about.

Of course, they wouldn't show these thoughts, after all, they're in sales.

Li Younan naturally sent the video to JK Long, asking her to edit it.

This time, he made a video compilation of Unimog 318s, and the first episode featured the Unimog chassis and body in place, with him telling the camera that he planned to independently modify this Unimog campervan.

After the video was posted, Li Younan thought it would receive unanimous praise, but things took an unexpected turn.

Many fans left comments in the video, suggesting that professionals should do professional things.

Everyone was advising Li Younan not to underestimate the difficulty of converting a campervan. Some even said, "It's true that a campervan you convert yourself will be more interesting, but you'll be going on a long trip. If you encounter any breakdowns along the way, it will be a loss."

Seeing these comments, Li Younan found it somewhat amusing.

Not long after, other Unimog RV manufacturers jumped on the bandwagon and released videos, analyzing the difficulty of modifying a Unimog from a seemingly professional perspective, arguing that Li Younan couldn't do it.

What Li Younan didn't expect was that his video didn't go viral, but another video produced by Unimog Motorhome Factory went viral.

Many people tagged him to watch the video.
