I really just want to make money

While Li Yu was busy making PPTs and President Luo of JAC was busy coordinating and reporting for instructions, the trend of the state to support the new energy automobile industry had already blown in the small circle.

In many cases, what determines whether an industry will explode is not whether there is demand in the market, but whether there is sufficient policy support.

As long as the policy support is strong enough, capital with a keen sense of smell will pour in frantically, and capital will bring attention and publicity.

The so-called demand is often artificially advertised...

Just like a diamond, isn't this thing just a transparent stone?

In the past, Chinese people had no interest in diamonds at all, but with the blessing of capital, advertisements were bombarded overwhelmingly.

"Diamonds are forever, one piece will last forever", "Diamonds have a price, but true love is priceless"

Literally equating a stone with love made the young man want to die.

At this time, in the domestic new energy industry, with the spread of policy trends, entrepreneurs and capital with a keen sense of smell have begun to move around.

But the first to take action is the leader in the field of Internet cars.

……

Bitauto Headquarters
Li Bin is the founder of Bitauto, but with the erosion of capital and the listing of Bitauto in the United States, his right to speak in the company has been declining, and has finally become a symbol.

Simply put, he was emptied.

It doesn't feel good to be ostracized. Do you want to stay in the company and fight for power?Or do you just leave in a cool way and look for a new career of your own?

This matter has always troubled him.

Just when he was in a dilemma, he suddenly heard the wind that the country would support the new energy automobile industry.

As an industry leader, he has a very deep research on the automotive industry.

For a person who has already achieved financial freedom, starting a business again, he will only do what he is interested in, and it must be challenging.

His hobby is cars. In this field, is there anything more challenging than making cars?
So, after hearing the news, he changed his mind. After careful analysis and research, Li Bin finally made a bold decision!

Build a car!

He wants to build a car!

However, car manufacturing is a capital-heavy and technology-heavy field, and he would definitely not be able to do it alone. After much deliberation, he finally decided to find a partner.

The first partner Li Bin thought of was none other than his old acquaintance and competitor, Li Xiang, the founder of Bitauto's competitor, Autohome.

Both of them are engaged in automobile Internet platforms, and both of them made the company listed in the United States, and then they were both emptied by capital.

It is precisely because of similar experiences that the two enemies have become good friends.

Take out your phone and make a call.

Li Bin: "Hey, Lao Li, have you heard the news?"

Li Xiang: "Hehe, I knew you called me because of this matter..."

Li Bin: "Hahaha, it seems that the two of us want to go together. How about it, come out and talk?"

Li Xiang: "Okay, you decide the location."

……

On January 1, the four ministries and commissions jointly issued the "Notice on Vigorously Promoting the Development of the New Energy Automobile Industry", which covered various policies required for the development of the new energy automobile industry, including subsidies for car companies, exemption from purchase tax, and new policies for the purchase of public vehicles. The proportion of energy vehicles, preferential charging prices, policy support for charging pile construction, etc.

Once the policy was released, it immediately caused a shock in the industry, but industry leaders with a keen sense of smell had already received the news and began to prepare quietly.

After a week of overtime beautification, Moyu Group's new energy vehicle project plan was freshly released. Li Yu held the plan and met Luo Zong and Li Shen again.

Seeing Li Yu's plan, the two industry leaders were also shocked.

"You young people, you really know how to play!" Mr. Luo really didn't know how to describe Li Yu's plan, so he could only bow down.

Among other things, simply not wanting dealers or 4S stores has subverted Mr. Luo's decades-old thinking.

Selling a car is such a big deal, but it can also be sold online?
Is it possible to sell houses online in the future?

In addition to cutting off dealers, Li Yu mentioned electric vehicle leasing and car leasing, oh, Li Yu's project plan is not written about "lease", but hard thinking, and found a new concept vocabulary from international cutting-edge business academic literature "shared".

Shared electric vehicles and shared cars...

Let’s not talk about sharing electric vehicles, and it has nothing to do with the cause itself.

In this car sharing, the new energy vehicles produced are sold to car rental companies. Users make online reservations for car rental through the app, pick up the car, and return it by themselves...

Will this work?

In today's car rental companies, the procedures for renting a car are really troublesome. It's as simple as Li Yu said, is it really feasible?

"Also, you separate the car from the battery, buy a car and rent a battery, is this really necessary?"

The car worth 5 to [-] yuan was sold and rented apart, anyway, Mr. Luo felt that it was a bit unnecessary.

Seeing Mr. Luo's expression that I am not short of money, Li Yu really wanted to say: You are divorced from the masses!
For most young people nowadays, it is good to save a dime.

In Li Yu's plan, the car and battery can be sold as a package, or they can be sold and rented together.

What happened to the rented battery? As long as I don't say it myself, who knows that I rented it?
Of course, Mr. Luo also has a lot of approval for this plan. For example, Li Yu said that building a comprehensive website for automobiles is very suitable for Mr. Luo.

In recent years, comprehensive automobile platforms such as Autohome and Bitauto.com have emerged in China, and their impact on the performance and reputation of various automobile manufacturers is increasing. JAC spends less money on advertising on these platforms every year...

Regarding Li Yu's project plan, Mr. Luo's overall feeling is that it is a bit exaggerated, but Li Yu also explained that it is all for the purpose of fooling investors, and now Mr. Luo has nothing to say.

Let the young people do the deceitful thing...

After convincing Mr. Luo, Li Shen has no objection. The final plan is roughly divided into three stages.

Phase [-]:

Jianghuai Automobile has a complete car R&D, design and production team.

Guoxuan Hi-Tech established a car battery research and development and production team.

Temporarily renting workshops and equipment from the two companies for preliminary research and development work, at the same time, the new energy vehicle company will acquire land and build its own production base.

Moyu Group invests in and operates car websites, electric car rental companies and car rental companies.

second stage:

Both teams must continue to recruit talents and improve their research and development capabilities.

Complete the construction of the production base, and the products will be put into the market after trial operation by the leasing company.

The third phase:

Integrate resources and inject car websites and car rental companies into new energy car companies.

At the same time, after the low-end products are mature and the technical level reaches the standard, new mid-to-high-end brands will be launched.

Li Shen is quite optimistic about Li Yu's plan, at least more optimistic than President Luo, a veteran state-owned enterprise cadre.

After the three discussed, in addition to the team and technology shares, Li Shen also promised to invest an additional 5 million cash shares.

On Li Yu's side, in addition to investing in operations management and marketing teams, he promised to invest 15 billion in advance.

Seeing that the two of them took out 20 billion funds with just one mouth, Mr. Luo almost drooled enviously.

Compared with the flexibility and efficiency of private enterprises, it is really difficult for state-owned enterprises to do something.

Even with the full support of the deputy mayor Lu Feng, Mr. Luo almost broke his leg because of the joint investment in new energy vehicles.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, the state issued a support policy, and Mr. Luo finally opened up all aspects of the relationship.

But just as he thought, technology and people can be provided, but cash is not available...

Without cash investment, just technology and personnel, JAC's shareholding will be much lower than the other two, which Mr. Luo is naturally unwilling to do.

Fortunately, Mr. Luo, who has been in a state-owned enterprise for many years, is also a small expert at dribbling. Since money is not enough, he can use fixed assets to invest in shares. Anyway, JAC has a lot of factories and equipment.

After several days of seesaw and bargaining, the three companies reached a final agreement.

Among the new companies, Moyu Group invested 15 billion and holds 60% of the shares. It is responsible for operations, marketing and investment, where investment is the most important.

In the agreement, Li Yu must raise at least 2 billion worth of investment for the company within 70 years, otherwise he will transfer 30% of the shares to the other two shareholders for free.

Jianghuai Automobile has a team, technology and plant equipment worth 5 million yuan, holding 20% ​​of the shares.

Guoxuan Hi-Tech contributed its team, technology and 5 million capital, holding 20% ​​of the shares.

The combination of the three, some people have the technology and the space, and the starting capital is 20 billion, which seems a lot, but it is just a drop in the bucket for car manufacturing.

Don't think that new energy vehicles are just replacing traditional car engines with batteries and motors. In places we can't see, the overall internal structure of the car will change.

In addition to the teams invested by JAC and Guoxuan Hi-Tech, the company will also recruit a large number of electric vehicle chip research and development, motor and powertrain, vehicle domain controller system, power and steering system, battery BMS, air conditioning control, energy management, mechanical And chassis suspension CDC control system and other fields of research and development professionals.

In addition to these basic functions, it is also necessary to lay out and develop smart cockpits, assisted driving and other technologies applied to mid-to-high-end cars in advance, otherwise you will stare blankly when you need it...

Recruiting professional talents is only the first step. After the talents come, they need to invest in the construction of the design institute. Various investments during the research and development period require a huge amount of funds.

Fortunately, Li Yu proposed to develop low-end models first. This kind of low-end models with a simple structure is relatively easy, and it will be available in a year.

If you directly launch a mid-to-high-end model, don't even think about it in three to five years...

……

The leader of a R&D team in the R&D Department of JAC said to a young man earnestly:
"Xiao Zhang, I know your technical level. You are definitely the best in our group. Your contribution to the company last year is also obvious to all."

"But, Lao Liu is an old employee after all. He has worked for the company for more than 20 years and will retire next year. You should understand that he is given this advanced quota."

"You are still young, there will be opportunities in the future, don't be in a hurry."

"You can work hard with peace of mind. At the end of this year, I will definitely get you an advanced position. When Lao Liu retires next year, there will be a vacancy for a senior engineer in the team. I will definitely push you up..."

The young man called Xiao Zhang by the team leader is a professional student who has been in the company for three years.

Unlike the previous engineers who relied on experience and qualifications, he is truly professional.

It's a pity that in an old state-owned enterprise like Jianghuai Automobile, you can't get promoted and raise your salary if you have skills.

If you want to be promoted, you must first have a job vacancy. Don’t expect others to resign. You can only wait until the old employees retire.

But do you think you will be able to take the position if there is a vacancy?
Think more!
Xiao Zhang was also very naive at the beginning. Last year, some old employees retired and vacated their positions. He thought that with his well-known excellent technology in the whole factory, and the previous leader said he was optimistic about himself, he would not be promoted in minutes. matter?

In the end, I waited and waited, and finally, an airborne soldier came and directly occupied the latrine...

What's more, this person is not a professional technician at all, but a clerk transferred from the office!
A clerk was directly transferred to the technology research and development department and robbed him of his title of senior engineer. This kind of thing directly tore Xiao Zhang's three views to pieces.

Damn, can you be a little more embarrassing!
Because of this matter, Xiao Zhang once clamored to resign, but in the end he was fooled by the team leader and came back.

In order to keep him, the team leader made big plans for him, such as advanced quotas, future job promotions, in short, as long as he stays, he has everything...

It turns out that it is good now, the advanced quota that was agreed upon was snatched away again!
Being robbed of his quota, and now being fed shit and poisonous chicken soup in front of his face by the team leader, Xiao Zhang was so angry that he really wanted to turn his back on him face to face.

But after the last blow, Xiao Zhang also grew up.

A biting dog doesn't bark, and people who really want to resign don't go around talking about it.

He has already made up his mind, he will find another house when he goes out, fish here for a few more days, get the year-end bonus and leave immediately!

People in Mahler Gobi know how to make big cakes all day long. There are many connections and old qualifications everywhere. No one with real skills and ability can get in. This kind of company is not worth mentioning!
With a decision in his heart, Xiao Zhang said a few perfunctory hmm and then left.

Seeing the back of Xiao Zhang leaving, the team leader chuckled and said to himself:
"Hey, young people nowadays are too impetuous. They don't even see a bottle of wine during the holidays. It's never your turn..."

People who have no background, who don't know how to flatter others, who don't know how to treat guests and give gifts, the more capable they are, the more tired they will be.

It is so realistic that the leader is the first to think of you when there is something, and the leader who is good is the first to forget you.

Xiao Zhang didn't know what the team leader was thinking, but even if he knew, it didn't matter, he was ready to quit anyway.

Go back to your seat, put aside the matter at hand, and pass the time by browsing the company website boringly.

At this time, a recruitment notice on the bulletin board of the website attracted his attention.

There are many departments in a large company, and each department often sends out internal recruitment notices, and anyone who is interested can sign up for the job.

However, this kind of thing is usually scheduled in advance, first there are radishes and then pits, one radish and one pit, it’s just a formality.

In the past, Xiao Zhang was definitely not interested in this kind of thing, but this time is different, because the recruitment is not a certain department, but a new energy vehicle company jointly established by the company and other companies. This recruitment is equivalent to changing jobs and changing companies!
Just as he was about to leave, there was a recruitment message in front of him, and the company took the initiative to recruit people. How could he miss such a good opportunity?
Click on the recruitment notice and read it carefully.

"Huizhou World New Energy Automobile Co., Ltd."

"Shareholders: Moyu Group 60%, Guoxuan Hi-Tech 20%, JAC 20%"

"The number of recruits is 100, of which..."

Xiao Zhang was also shocked after reading the long list of job openings.

First of all, it is the shareholder of this company. The major shareholder is not Jianghuai Automobile, but Moyu Group!

Moyu Group, that is the most famous company in Hefei City now!

The boss is rich, the company develops fast, the employee benefits are good, and the salary is high.

Moreover, since the start of financing at the end of last year, the company's valuation has been on the rise. It is said that when it goes public, all the executives of those companies will become billionaires...

If it is said that the high-end talents in Hefei most want to go, half of them will definitely choose Moyu Group.

But it is a pity that this is an Internet company, and it has been recruiting large-scale Internet professional and technical personnel. Even if Xiao Zhang had an idea, he couldn't help it...

"Hahaha, the opportunity is here!"

"Holding 60% of the shares, isn't that equivalent to entering the Moyu Group?"

Action is worse than excitement, Xiao Zhang wrote a resume on the spot without the slightest hesitation, and then sent it to the email address notified.

Just like Xiao Zhang, after seeing this recruitment notice, many young technicians who are confident in their technical level but are unwilling to stay in the company and wait to die are all moved.

100 recruitment positions, received more than 2 resumes in just 400 days.

The person in charge of the recruitment interview was several experts in the automotive field that Moyu Group had found. After three rounds of assessment and interviews, 100 technicians were successfully recruited, including Xiao Zhang.

"Several, what is the overall level of the 100 technicians we recruited in JAC this time?"

Ward New Energy Automobile Company and Moyu Group have invested a lot of money, and men seem to be naturally interested in cars, so Li Yu paid special attention to this recruitment.

Hearing Boss Li's question, several interviewing experts nodded in satisfaction.

"Very good, they are all young men with excellent professional skills and flexible and open thinking!"

"Well, I didn't expect that Jianghuai Automobile's technical strength is so strong, and the young technicians are really talented..."

Li Yu was also quite surprised to get such a high evaluation from these professional leaders who were specially invited here for consultation.

According to his thinking, Jianghuai Automobile can only be regarded as a second-tier domestic automobile brand. Although this kind of company has technical strength, it is also limited.

Under such circumstances, even if Mr. Luo promised to support 100 technicians, it is impossible not to keep a hand.

After all, Jianghuai Automobile only holds 20% of the shares of the new energy vehicle company, and it is impossible for Li Yu to give the best to others.

"Unexpectedly, I still underestimated Mr. Luo's mind..."

Li Yu couldn't help sighing, moved.

As expected, he is a boss of the older generation of the auto industry who cares about the country and the development of the industry.
