Don't give me black technology

Chapter 298

When the pre-sale of Bluestar Motors started, there were 1 Bluestar E2643 pre-orders and 2 Bluestar ES551 pre-orders on the first day!
You know, this is not a mobile phone worth thousands of dollars, but a car worth hundreds of thousands!The cheapest standard configuration of Bluestar E1 starts at 30 yuan, and if you want to add configurations, it will be even more expensive!

The Blue Star ES2 belongs to the high-end coupe type, and the price starts at 80.

But even at such a price, there are still a large number of consumers who choose to make a reservation!
When the first day's reservation data came out, the entire China, and even the world's auto industry were shocked!
Before Blue Star, Tesla was the best-selling new energy vehicle, but in the quarter with the highest sales last year, it sold 11.2 vehicles, an average of 3.3 vehicles per month, and an average of about 1100 vehicles per day. .

And behind this data is the word of mouth and market that Tesla has worked hard for several years. Now, the pre-sale of Bluestar Motors exceeds [-] units on the first day!

If this continues, wouldn't the monthly sales be [-] units?This will directly occupy a place on the sales ranking edition!

Moreover, this is only the sales of two models. If it is in the sales list of a single model, this data is even more exaggerated.

However, what made colleagues feel the most pressure was that the second day of the pre-sale of Blue Star cars, the number of reservations climbed again.In contrast, the sales of other models in the same price range during the same period can be described as plummeting.

This is not a comparison of models, but a technical crush.Just a driverless car is enough to attract a large number of people who can't drive but need a car to pay for it.

Now, colleagues only hope that Blue Star Motors is not as good as advertised, and there will be various problems in the later stage.

But their ideas are estimated to be difficult to realize.

……

The island nation, the Association of Automobile Manufacturers, and representatives from automobile companies such as Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Mitsubishi, and Mazda gathered together.

These people are not only representatives of car companies, but also representatives of the six major consortiums in the island country behind them.

"Everyone, once Bluestar Motors was launched in China, its sales hit new highs repeatedly. On the contrary, as far as I know, the sales of our companies in China have declined to varying degrees. I think we must take stronger measures Already!" Takahashi Kengo said seriously.

"Deep Space Technology is different from any opponent in the world." A representative from Mitsubishi Motors said, "As far as I know, they have paralyzed Suoni's most proud video game business in less than half a year! Your Mitsui consortium The loss is heavy!"

Takahashi Kengo said with a dark face: "This is a technological war, and no one can stand by. Now OICA refuses to recognize the fully automatic driving technology of Deep Space Technology, and will not allow Bluestar Motors to enter the international market for the time being. But we must act as soon as possible , Contain them before they develop!"

"At the moment, we should gather everyone's strength and give them the greatest restrictions from the industrial chain."

……

At the same time, Germany, one of the four major economies in Europe, is also one of the most industrially developed countries in the world.Here, there are the most powerful automobile manufacturing enterprises and the most powerful auto parts suppliers in the world.

The matter of Bluestar Motors has always been highly valued by German car companies.

After Bluestar's unmanned driving defeated the human car king, German car companies quickly allocated funds to add to the field of unmanned driving.

In the past few days, Bluestar Motors, a car company, has forced new energy vehicles all over the world, and even the stock prices of traditional car companies have fallen, which has made the German auto giants unable to sit still.

The monopoly on high-end manufacturing for so many years cannot be broken like this!

The German Automobile Industry Association also held a secret meeting, and the participants were all representatives from the giants of the automobile industry.

They discussed for a long time, and after going back, the business of each company has been adjusted to a certain extent.

……

Ten days later, the island nation's metal industry suddenly announced that due to various factors, it would increase the prices of several metal materials and restrict exports.

And these materials, coincidentally, are the raw materials purchased by Blue Star Automobile.

The metal smelting and material manufacturing in the island country are better than some suppliers in China, so Bluestar Motors purchased their products. Now the sudden price increase of materials has led to a direct increase in the manufacturing cost of Bluestar Motors.

However, Bluestar Motors or Deep Space Technology is facing more than one suppression. German parts suppliers have also adopted some restrictions, which prevent Bluestar Motors from buying some important parts normally.

Either you need to increase the price, or you can only choose lower-level products from your own country or other countries.

The U.S. auto industry has also made some efforts to suppress Blue Star Motors.

Behind the soaring sales of Blue Star Automobiles is the rapid increase in manufacturing costs and the difficulty in supplying parts.

"The price of our cars is already very high. If the price increases, I'm afraid sales will be greatly reduced." Said the director of the marketing department at the Bluestar Automobile Super Factory.

"This is a difficult task!" Guan Yang analyzed, "For example, in terms of raw materials, let's talk about alloy steel and special steel! Although China is a big steel country, it is not a steel powerhouse."

"The steel output of the island country is only [-]% of that of our country, but the profits are overwhelming. Their high-quality steel prices are a little cheaper than those in Europe. Our domestic steel plates for vehicles are basically joint ventures."

"There are other raw materials, which are similar."

"As for parts, we can only produce motors and other parts by ourselves at present. It is impossible to produce all other parts by ourselves. We still have to import products from Germany, island countries and the United States. This is not our problem, but our local industry. The reason why the overall level of manufacturing technology is not enough."

"It's really difficult!" Meng Xiaobai said with emotion, the motor and energy are not enough.Once the core interests of those developed countries are violated, even if they lose some short-term profits, they will suppress deep space technology.

"That is to say, we have to undertake high-cost operations for a period of time. And solve the problems of raw materials and parts as soon as possible."

"That being said, these two issues have not lasted ten or twenty years, so it may be very difficult." Guan Yang sighed.

This is not only to improve the technical level of Bluestar Motors, but also to improve the industrial manufacturing level of the entire country. It is difficult to reach the sky!

"Don't worry, take your time." Meng Xiaobai smiled, "We still have something to play!"

The development of Bluestar Motors in the next one or two years will definitely be restricted due to these factors, but Meng Xiaobai will naturally not give up so easily.

"Improve the entire industry, the industrial level of the entire country? Is it really impossible?" Meng Xiaobai suddenly felt full of fighting spirit again, "The higher the difficulty, the more interesting it is to do!"
