My autobiography cannot be a tragedy

Chapter 436 Press Conference

Do earth-shattering things and become an anonymous celebrity!
The "National Defense Seven", its true strength, perhaps only it itself, and the Hexagon Building know...

Compared with the "Mixed-race Houyi" statue in Shuimu Academy of Fine Arts, this "incognito" statue of Xigong University may not have the so-called "multicultural integration" and "international aesthetics" that keep pace with the times.

However, the "family and country feelings" that are more of the essence of China's thousands of years of cultural inheritance immediately resonated with the two present.

Mr. Ren and Mr. Yu know the elegant meaning after hearing the stringed songs.

"My way is not alone..." Mr. Ren sighed with his hands behind his back.

"But Mr. Ren, if the other party doesn't show up, we are afraid that we will be roasted on the fire..." Mr. Yu smiled wryly.

After calming down, he has also realized that this technology in his hand not only means opportunities, but also means huge risks.

Especially in the current international situation...

"Aren't we being roasted on the fire now?"

This rhetorical question left Mr. Yu speechless.

"But once the news leaks... Do you need to pay attention to security?"

Mr. Ren naturally understood what Mr. Yu meant by "security".

However, after a long silence, he unexpectedly shook his head.

"There is only a thousand days to be a thief, how can there be a reason to guard against a thief for a thousand days? Even if it is not someone, it is likely to be someone else... Do we want to be terrified all the time, and all trees are soldiers?"

"But……"

"Needless to say, I was a little hesitant about this matter, but with this technology, we are not without chips.

What's more...since there are national soldiers who hide their names, there must also be warriors who charge forward..."

President Yu: "..."

"I understand, since this is the case, we will make all preparations and plans to minimize the risk as much as possible."

"Well! Reciprocate, the other party gave us such a big gift, we have to express it..." Elder Ren said again.

Of course, Gao Yuan is not without conditions, such as 51% of Sihai, worth hundreds of billions of shares.

However, compared to this level of disruptive technology, if you set up a company to brag about it, even if it is just a start-up company, the market value can easily exceed 1000 billion, and the unit of denomination is still US dollars.

Not to mention that it also solved the imminent dilemma of Juchang.

In Mr. Ren's view, he made a lot of money from this deal.

"Mr. Ren, do you mean to tilt our order towards Bai Yeji as much as possible?"

As a domestic private enterprise, with the size of the chrysanthemum factory, a little flow out from the fingers is a huge order for any small business.

"Well... of course this is what it should be. Since the other party has taken a fancy to our accumulation in the industry, the final goal should be to reach an in-depth cooperation with us.

You can never go wrong with building a relationship ahead of time.

As long as it is what the other party needs, and what we have, we can try our best to get in touch with each other through cooperation... You should pay more attention to this matter. "

President Yu thought about it.

"You reminded me. When I went to Su City, that Young Master Hu enthusiastically recommended an investment project to me.

It's just that this project is not in line with our current strategy, so I didn't agree. "

"Oh? What project?" Elder Ren asked curiously.

"It's called Aidou New Energy, and it's a car-making project!"

"New energy vehicles...it's a cutting-edge technology track, good vision!"

Mr. Yu nodded with a strange expression on his face.

"Hmm... the track is quite cutting-edge, but I seem to have heard recently that this company should be closing down..."

"Uh……"

……

And at this moment, the Aidou new energy vehicle manufacturing base that Mr. Yu said was about to close down...

In a fully enclosed workshop, Mr. Bao and several engineers are surrounding an improved idol D3 that has just rolled off the production line, each with their eyes wide open, as if they have seen a ghost.

I saw that the driver's seat of the car was empty, but the steering wheel was spinning on its own, and then it stopped steadily into the marked parking space...

……

Few people know what happened in that workshop at that time.

Not long after, the official website of Idol released an announcement.

The Idol D3 new product launch conference, which has been skipped twice, will be held as scheduled. We sincerely invite all journalists and colleagues to attend the conference!

This caused a small commotion in the circle of local journalists.

Today, the dilemma faced by Idol New Energy has gradually become known to the public.

Suppliers blocked the door, employees' wages were in arrears, the boss was about to run away... In short, all kinds of gossip were flying around.

All the news point to a conclusion...

Idol is basically a grasshopper after autumn, and it won't be long before it jumps.

As an established new energy car company that has been gradually eliminated by subsidies, it has naturally attracted the attention of many practitioners in the industry.

So the next day, many journalists and colleagues came to the conference site, and the venue of Nuoda University was actually full.

"I thought today's press conference would be skipped again, but I didn't expect it to be held as scheduled?"

"It's probably because Mr. Bao knew he couldn't drag it on anymore. This has already been skipped twice. After all, the ugly daughter-in-law wants to see her in-laws!"

"There's no point in procrastinating any longer, who in the industry doesn't know about the current idol situation?

With the subsidy downhill, the most important cost-effectiveness of idols, an artifact of accountancy, is gone. I heard that all manufacturers are cutting orders.

With the product power of "Old Man Music", how can it be sold without subsidies.

In my opinion, this press conference is basically a farewell party. "

"Who says it's not? If the original price is maintained, you will lose one car if you build one. Now let's see how bold Mr. Bao is to lower the price.

If the price drops by [-] to [-]%, and fills in the gap of subsidy decline, maybe a few cars can be sold. "

The reporters were discussing in twos and threes in their seats.

Rather than saying that they came to participate in the new product launch event, it is better to say that they came to interview a bankrupt company.

Many reporters have already started writing their manuscripts, preparing for a while to ask about the "bankruptcy process" of Idol Auto after the boring press conference is over...

At this moment in the front row, there were also three men discussing in low voices.

"Hey! Boss Bao can be regarded as the veteran of new energy vehicles. I didn't expect that he would end up like this now."

"Yeah, the future will always be a world where technology is king, and it is wrong for the other party to choose the route of making profits first and then researching and developing!
The low-end model of the A00 class was selected, and the market recognition was inherently limited, so it was destined not to be able to impact high-end brands.

What's even more failed is that the technology has not yet matured and rushed to mass production, and now it just swells into a mess.

If the country gives him a few more years, maybe he can turn the tables and make some achievements, it's too late to say anything now..."

"Yes, there is no one who does not burn money to engage in new energy vehicles. I have scheduled the profit time until after 2023. Profitability is secondary to us entrepreneurs."

"In fact, this is also a good thing for us. Bad coins are expelled and good coins can be circulated.

The old car-making forces of new energy have withdrawn from the market. Next, it is time for our three new car-making forces to enter the stage of history. "

"The two presidents are right. The market and technology are indispensable. Relatively speaking, technology is the core of the core compared to the market.

In my opinion, our future opponent is only Tesla..."

"Hehe! Xiaopeng, you are the most technically savvy of the three of us. Tell me, won't there be any refreshing highlights in Mr. Bao's new car conference this time?"

"The highlight? I think the price may be the highlight..."

"Uh...hahaha!"

"Hahaha!"

Just as the three of them were pointing Jiang Shan, lashing out at Fang Qiu, chatting and laughing, and waiting to see "the end of the old era", the lights in the venue suddenly dimmed!

"Crack!" Immediately, the big screen in front of everyone suddenly lit up.

However, to everyone's surprise, the above is not the expected ppt, but a video.

To be precise, it is a live video recorded in high definition without any rendering and processing.

Looking at the background, it seems to be an empty workshop, and there is only a petite red mini model parked in the field.

In all fairness, the exterior design of this car is not outstanding, it is better than those old men, but its strength is limited, and it doesn't give people any sense of high-level "beautiful".

Everyone was stunned.

Without any ceremony such as opening the curtain, the new car of the idol company, the idol D3, is just so big, and it is directly displayed in front of everyone...

"Uh...Is this Bao always playing badly? Doesn't he even care about the basic sense of ritual?"

The previous three were immediately speechless.

The three entrepreneurs who had been expecting a little bit about this press conference were suddenly disappointed.

however……

The car on the video started to move.

"Uh...this is...backing into the garage?" Everyone was dumbfounded again.

Good guy, they also show videos at their new car launch conferences, but they are artistically processed "artistic videos" that use a streamlined body to show a beautiful figure in various mountains, rivers and lakes, and increase consumers' desire to buy.

Are you showing us the ass of the car it reversed into the garage?

To be honest, there is no beauty!

And...it actually stopped crookedly!
The first time I entered the warehouse, the line was so tight that the entire body almost turned sideways and parked in the parking space.

Immediately there was boos at the scene.

"I'll take a taxi and let me watch this?" "Refund!" "Be serious, please?"

"Anyone come out and explain?"

"Isn't the money even enough to hire an old driver?"

Various discussions sounded, but this is not over yet.

It seemed that it was parked crookedly, and the car started to reverse into the garage for the second time...

This time, the line was still pressed, and the car body was tilted by 30° and parked in the parking space.

Someone at the scene frowned.

The third time, the car parked right into the parking space, but this time it hit the bottom line again.

Some people began to gnash their teeth at the scene, as if they wanted to go up and help park the car.

For the fourth time, it went into the warehouse smoothly, but it was slightly bumped to the corner, which was not considered a success.

For the fifth time, it was successfully put into the warehouse again. The body was sideways by a few centimeters, but fortunately, it was put into the warehouse successfully.

The sixth time, the perfect storage, this time, the car and the parking space are almost symmetrical.

Many obsessive-compulsives present at the scene finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However... the next step is actually side parking, non-marked parking, obstacle parking, extreme parking...

There seem to be more than a dozen cameras around, faithfully recording the movements of the body from all angles and showing them to everyone...

"What is this? A novice driving school video? What's the point of showing us this?"

"protest!"

"Did you miss the video?"

The discussion was getting louder, however, no staff came out to explain.

"What do you think Mr. Bao is doing? Even if there is no hope, a good press conference shouldn't be such a joke, right?"

The other two were also frowning, not sure what kind of medicine this Boss Bao was selling in the gourd.

until……

The camera zooms out suddenly!

For the first time, the whole figure of the new car, together with the dozen or so cameras around it, was finally fully reflected in the lens!
The noisy audience instantly fell silent.

The three people in the front row widened their eyes even more, with disbelief on their faces.

"This……"

The action was still the same action, almost replaying the previous video, but everyone clearly saw it...

The rookie they imagined sitting in the driver's seat... doesn't exist at all!

The steering wheel is so windless and automatic...

"This...is this automatic parking?!"

The technically skilled student directly broke the defense, opening his mouth in disbelief.

hallucinations?
My family's Xiaopeng Automobile has more than 400 R&D personnel, and introduced the person in charge of the machine learning algorithm of the automatic driving function Autopilot from Tesla. This has just realized the primary automatic parking on the cutting-edge car...

Your A00-class miniature car, the cost of the whole car is not enough for me to have a lidar...

Now you tell me, have you realized automatic parking? !

The other two also looked at each other and swallowed.

The scene was eerily quiet, except for exclamations from time to time, and a series of flashing lights one after another.

It wasn't until the parking video they thought was boring was played from beginning to end again that the lights slowly came on.

At some point, Mr. Bao was already standing beside a car covered by a curtain with a smile on his face.

"Everyone, welcome to the launch event of our idol's new car.

Just now I heard that many people are cursing their mothers, so let’s stop talking nonsense, and now let me introduce to you the latest model of this year that our company has painstakingly developed..."

"Wow~" The red curtain was slowly lifted by two beautiful ladies of ceremonies, revealing the true face of Lushan.

It is the same red car in the video just now.

No suspense, naturally no surprises!
However, everyone has been overwhelmed by this wave of manipulation by the idol company!

Fuck! A00-level automatic parking...how is it done?
This car is simply going against the sky!
Boss Bao looked at the audience with a happy face.

"The product of this time is the idol D3 model, including the 2018 basic model 'Dou Niu Shi'.

And an upgrade...'Santa Beans'!
And the theme of our press conference today is - 'Talking Car'! "
