Reborn: Billionaire in College

"The most powerful concept car in history, well deserved!"

"Jiuzhou S1, the booking data is amazing!"

"With Chen Pingjiang's appeal, the concept car with 0 parameters announced made 13 billion just based on the founder's words!"

"According to insiders, Jiuzhou S1 will be released as early as the first half of 2016."

"Kyushu S1 customers who place large orders will hopefully get their cars in the second half of 2015."

"Many automakers are considering countermeasures for the sales of Jiuzhou S1 at this auto show."

……

When the sales data of Jiuzhou S1 was released on the official Weibo account, it really shocked everyone.

I knew you would be strong, but you didn’t tell me you were so strong?
For others, selling a few hundred cars at a car show is considered a very good result. How come you sold more than 50,000 of this concept car?

"It's a good car, but there's no reason to exaggerate like that. Is it because Jiuzhou Auto has suffered a huge loss in internal data?"

"Has Chen Pingjiang started to rip off his fans? He wants a 10 yuan deposit for a large order. If the functions are cut after the product is launched, consumers will suffer a huge loss."

"This car has more marketing than real power. It's overhyped. It's an iron shell without the three major components. It really is just a refrigerator, a TV and a sofa."

"Whether the car can be built or not is not the point. Anyway, the subsidy has been earned."

“It’s so easy to make money from Chinese people, haha!”

"My conclusion is that it is not as good as Tesla model S!"

……

There are voices of mockery and pessimism!
There is no shortage of special groups in this world who deliberately sing against the tide to show that "everyone else is drunk but I am sober", and there is no shortage of jealousy!

Amid the controversy between the two sides, Jiuzhou S1 has completely opened up its voice.

It is just like the grand occasion when "Wenjie" and "Xiaomi" were listed several years ago, or even better.

After the booking data spread to the other side of the ocean on the Internet, Musk was so depressed that he couldn't sleep all night.

"Damn it, is it so easy to make money from the Chinese? Or are they too rich? 5 units have been pre-ordered for a concept version that hasn't even been launched yet!"

The Destiny Child became angrier the more he thought about it!

Oh shit!

Tesla's global sales in 2013 totaled only 2.23!
As a result, they made more than 5 sales at a single auto show, which is more than twice Tesla’s total sales last year.

Although Musk had a high opinion of Chen Pingjiang, he still felt that he was not as good as himself, but now the numbers are slapping him in the face.

What made Musk even angrier was that netizens who often liked to compare him with Chen Pingjiang flooded his Twitter comment section with comments like a tsunami, with most of their words expressing gloating.

Musk, holding his breath, almost unfollowed Chen Pingjiang on Twitter. The next day, he made a weird comment under a post about "Jiuzhou S1 reservation data": "I read the relevant reports and have to say this is a good thing if it can eventually be launched and mass-produced smoothly."

During a Fox News interview that evening, the host asked Musk the same question live.

Musk replied: "There is no doubt that my vision is as good as ever. I always say that Chen Pingjiang is the only one in the world who is as unique as me and really wants to change the world. I am very happy to see that he is following my entrepreneurial path again, which I did ten years ago."

"For example, aerospace, electric vehicles!" "Are you asking me if I'm worried about Tesla being surpassed? Oh, no, no. I think your worry is unnecessary. Tesla is very popular in the global market. What restricts our sales is not user demand, but the production capacity of our Tesla factory. If the production capacity is sufficient to keep up, Tesla's sales in 2015 can reach or even more."

"Besides, the quality and high-tech content of Model S have been proven in many markets, which is far beyond the reach of an electric car that will not be available for another two or three years. I never make assumptions about things that are impossible to happen."

……

That evening, the video of the interview was seen by Chen Pingjiang, who just smiled knowingly.

Musk has the right to speak for himself. He has made a lot of money by shorting Tesla this time. Can't he let people have some say?

Yes!

While Chen Pingjiang was struggling in China, he did not forget to ask Muddy Waters to contact other capitals to short Tesla and make a fortune.

Musk has had a hard time since the beginning of 2014. Tesla's sales have fallen short of expectations, it has incurred huge losses, its stock price has been hitting rock bottom, and there has been personnel turmoil in Greater China. It seems that it took only one night for the technology upstart Tesla to go from being the center of attention to being the center of public disapproval.

This time, the explosion of Jiuzhou S1 dealt another blow to Musk.

Compared with the outstanding booking data of Jiuzhou S1, Tesla's sales in China in January this year were only 1 vehicles.

What is even more heartbreaking is that Tesla’s previous remarks were brought out and used to criticize him.

"With huge losses, a falling stock price and personnel turmoil in Greater China, it seems that it took only one night for the tech upstart Tesla to go from being the center of attention to being the center of attention."

Obviously, this argument has now been refuted.

The next day!

Chen Pingjiang mentioned in an interview with a financial columnist: "Tesla's contribution to the Chinese electric vehicle market is self-evident. It has accelerated the popularization of electric vehicles in China and the construction of charging pile infrastructure; it has repeatedly challenged the thinking limits and ways of thinking about cars of local manufacturers; it has repeatedly told consumers that the best products are not about the present, but about the promising future..."

"The reason why our data is much higher than Tesla is largely because the Jiuzhou S1 is an extended-range model, not a pure electric model. On the other hand, reservations are refundable after all, and users have one year to regret it, which means that as long as the reservation is before the vehicle production schedule, it can be canceled without any penalty."

After seeing Chen Pingjiang’s response on Twitter, Musk almost vomited blood.

It was like I punched cotton!
It makes people feel even more ridiculous after watching it, the contrast between the two sides is too obvious.

"Musk, I used to regard you as my idol, but this time I only saw arrogance and conceit in you. On the contrary, I saw the unique humility of the Chinese in Chen."

This highly praised comment was ranked first!
Chen Pingjiang has nothing to be angry about Musk's sarcasm. Sooner or later, this guy will be able to figure things out and digest them clearly.

Besides, at least this guy's methods are fair and he's not a bad person.

We may be business competitors, but this is definitely not a dispute over reputation. There is no need to get into a big fight because of a momentary impulse.

What's more, Chen Pingjiang had his own little plan in mind. This person would be Minister Ma in the future, so it would not be worth it to have a falling out now.

Not only must we not make things awkward, but we must also try to make use of Musk as much as possible.

This does not mean that Chen Pingjiang is afraid of Musk. After all, his products will not be able to enter the American market sooner or later, and there is not much interest involved between the two parties.

Just don't worry about it...
