Rebirth 2008: I Can Make Money Reading

Vol 2 Chapter 347: All car companies and Tesla Musk are panicking

The completion of the new car launch does not mean that the media reporters let Mu Yang go.

In particular, some overseas media reporters were shocked when they saw such a cool car, gathered in Muyang, and then interviewed.

Muyang didn't want to give more interviews, but in order to promote his car, he didn't care about making a high profile.

In fact, there are already specific parameters of the Hummer EV on the screen. Mu Yang does not answer the questions of the media reporters alone, but summarizes them in general:

"Friends from the media, our Hummer EV has too many disruptive innovations, breaking the boundaries of the five major technical fields of the Internet, AI and autonomous driving, IT, automobiles, and electric systems, achieving breakthrough innovation, ecological anti-revolution, and reconstructing the car. The core value of the future car will no longer be reflected by Lisheng!

Instead, it is measured in kilowatt-hours, hertz, GB and the degree of connecting people, vehicles and roads. The core value of future cars will be reconstructed into computing power, AI and autonomous driving systems, Internet, cloud and electric power systems, Xinghai Group's Hummer EV It will create a new category of cross-border integration, using preliminary cloud technology..."

Mu Yang talked a lot about the concept of future cars, and answered these overseas reporters in skilled and accurate English. In fact, he was suspected of plagiarism in this sentence, but these media reporters must not know.

Domestic media reporters all have a certain foundation in English, but they sound familiar with the words, but after connecting them together, they can't understand them.

"Brother, do you know what Mu Yang said?" a reporter with a good command of English asked his colleague.

"Probably, maybe, that's what he meant. Mr. Mu said too many esoteric things, and it's hard to understand." This Net One reporter's English level is very poor.

"Well, I also think it's ignorant! The thinking of mathematicians is different from ours, and most people can't understand it." This reporter is relatively good in English, but he can't understand the content.

"In this way, the Hummer EV is the product of the future, but Xinghai Group created it ahead of time, and it's better."

"Yes, that's what it means. In fact, we don't need to understand what Mr. Mu said. Look at those foreigners, they were conquered by him."

In twos and threes, domestic media reporters chatted about Mu Yang's words in private, and those who did not understand English nodded frequently;

Those who barely understand English frown;

Those who understand English, but don't understand the meaning, feel more painful.

In fact, these overseas reporters were also stunned. At the beginning, they understood a little bit. The further back they went, the deeper Mu Yang spoke. He felt that he was listening to a science fiction paper, and his IQ couldn't keep up, but his peers were here. , had to bite the bullet and listen.

The concept Mu Yang mentioned was proposed in 2012, and it does sound very novel. It inexplicably plated the Hummer EV with a layer of "mysterious sci-fi" elements.

He originally wanted to see car models in other exhibition areas, no, it should be to study the cars of his peers.

However, there were too many journalists and fans who wanted to block him, especially those female fans who wanted to rub him. Muyang saw so many murder weapons, so he had to leave the exhibition area, go back to the hotel, and come back another day. Only one day.

When the media reporters saw Mu Yang, surrounded by bodyguards, leave, they sighed and discussed:

"Mr. Mu seems to be a very busy person, and he has to go back to do future research."

"Yes, scientists are really different. I just saw Mr. Mu looking at the car in the Zheli car next door, and he was fascinated by it. He even ignored the Zhai Ling car model next to him. He has already built a car as good as the Hummer EV. But Mr. Mu is still very humble to learn from his peers, hoping to learn their strengths from domestic cars."

"Scientists are worthy of respect, even such a cute car model can be ignored, admire!"

Mu Yang left the exhibition area temporarily, but the exhibition area of ​​Xinghai Group became more and more lively.

In just two or three hours, Xinghai Group's Hummer set off a hot wind of sci-fi off-road, which caused a stir among major car companies.

Domestic brand car companies such as Zheli Automobile, Changan, and Chery feel that they have nothing to do with them, because Xinghai Group's Hummer EV will not have no competition with them.

The most influential domestic car companies may be Yadi, mainly Xinghai Group's ternary lithium battery and their flagship lithium iron phosphate.

Wang Chuanfu, chairman of Yadi, is still very panicked. Xinghai Group's ternary lithium battery is so powerful?

He used to look down on Xinghai Group's ternary lithium battery and thought it was unsafe, but now they have solved the problem that he can't solve. Regarding the electric capacity per unit mass of the battery, directly smashing their company's lithium iron phosphate is their two times!

The same one hundred kilograms of electricity will be several hundred kilograms heavier than other people's cars.

Can't play!

Xinghai Group did not play with them either.

In addition, the charging technology they are proud of is also much worse than that of Xinghai Group, only one-half of others'.

Wang Chuanfu and a senior executive came to see the battery data looped on the Xinghai Group's screen. After reading it, they were shocked.

"Mr. Wang, how do you feel?"

Zheli Group Chairman Li Shufu saw Wang Chuanfu standing in the distance and watched for a long time, then walked over to say hello.

"It feels very bad. Their data is too exaggerated." Wang Chuanfu smiled bitterly.

Some time ago, he also publicly said that he was not optimistic about Xinghai Group's research on ternary lithium batteries.

At the beginning, he didn't believe it either. He happened to be at the auto show, and the employee told him something important. He quickly came over after reading other people's media reports.

"Yeah, if these data are true, the car is going to change, and the global auto pattern may really change. Xinghai Group has made this move and will directly control all car companies." Li Shufu felt a little lucky, but more Saw the future of the car situation.

Regardless of whether the Hummer EV can be mass-produced or not, if their technology is applied to mid-to-low-end vehicles, competing products at the same price will not be able to beat Xinghai Group at all.

A company singled out all car companies, just like Xinghai Group singled out all overseas manufacturers of second-guaranteed welding machines.

This, will not be the case again?

"Xinghai Group won't make any false data, most of it is true, Mr. Li, let's talk about it when you have time, there are still some things in our company." At this time, Wang Chuanfu was in a complicated mood. He believed in the data of Xinghai Group. It is not an ordinary technology company, and it is the world's first in any technology.

No. 2 in the world, people don't bother to do it.

He now wants to go back and study countermeasures. If Xinghai Group engages in low-end and mid-range electric vehicles, they will definitely be unable to beat them.

Wang Chuanfu believes that his lithium battery is the first in China and first-class in the world.

But now, he doesn't think so. Xinghai Group has developed a ternary lithium battery and directly beat them.

It should also directly beat the international counterparts, Mu Yang said that the world's first, there is no bragging.

Not only Wang Chuanfu, but also Xinghai Group's new car launch conference. After the executives of various car companies knew the information of Xinghai Group, they also came to watch and understand at the auto show.

Chen Xiang, the Chinese president of Mercedes-Benz Huaguo, was very uneasy after seeing the data of the three-motor Hummer EV.

Their Mercedes-Benz 10 G500 is a little brother in front of the Hummer EV. The official guide price is 1.698 million yuan, and the three-motor Hummer EV is up to 1.5 million yuan;

In terms of brands, Mercedes-Benz is of course a first-tier luxury brand, but Hummer is world-famous in the off-road industry, and its reputation is no worse than that of Mercedes-Benz.

Therefore, in terms of car brand influence, Mercedes-Benz is definitely stronger, but in the field of off-road vehicles, it is not necessarily. Military, Mercedes-Benz is civilian, civilian Hummer is still a fork.

The length of the G500 is 4668mm, the width is 1774mm, the others are 5500mm, and the width is 2200mm. The size is three or four grades away.

G500 100 km acceleration is 6.1 seconds, others are 3.2 seconds, sports car level;

G500 has five seats, others have seven seats;

The G500 is a big gas-guzzling monster. Others use electricity, so there is no comparison at all;

In terms of tire specifications, their tire width is much narrower than that of the Hummer EV. The rim is 19 inches, and others are exaggerated 23 inches. If you don't know the car or the grade of the same car, just look at the tires.

In terms of technology, the G500 loses completely. The Hummer EV has an automatic driving system and preliminary cloud technology that he does not understand.

In terms of other interiors, the Hummer EV is very stylish, but not lacking in stability.

No matter which aspect is compared, it is really not a grade, and it is unfair to compare only in terms of size.

"TMD, it's not too much to sell a few million yuan for a car of this level! Why don't you just sell it for more than one million yuan?" The Chinese president of Mercedes-Benz Huaguo couldn't help but complain.

Maybe ordinary people think it is expensive to sell for a million, not to mention a million, even 300,000 to 400,000 will feel expensive, because ordinary people still can't afford it.

But to the rich, the Hummer EV is worth several million dollars.

It can be said that customers who can afford a million-level car will add the Hummer EV to the comparison.

The Hummer EV is not a gasoline car. It is so large in size and has a grand appearance. It has no competitors.

Maybe someone who originally planned to buy a Mercedes-Benz S-Class would change his mind and buy a Hummer EV.

Generally speaking, those who plan to buy a sedan will not consider an SUV; similarly, those who plan to buy an SUV will not consider a sedan.

Maybe people who buy sedans don't look at SUVs, but Hummer EV directly subverts the concept of politeness. There are many Mercedes-Benz S-class cars on the street, which may change their car buying ideas.

Unless the Mercedes-Benz S-Class is bought for face or commercial use, the Hummer EV will never be considered.

As for those who plan to buy a million-level SUV, it is estimated that most customers will turn their attention to the Hummer EV, unless they really don't like electric vehicles.

Dimensions, starting speed, space, noise, etc., the Mercedes-Benz G500 was directly beaten by the Hummer EV.

Chen Xiang, the Chinese president of Mercedes-Benz Huaguo, saw his counterpart, Jerome, the vice president of Tesla's operations.

However, the two were not familiar with each other. Chen Xiang saw Jerome standing in front of the screen, and he was also lost in thought for a long time.

Half an hour ago, Jerome had told the CEO of the Xinghai Group, Musk, about the situation of the Xinghai Group, saying that there was a big movement in the electric car.

Musk is an arrogant figure, and he was equally shocked when he saw the parameters of the Hummer EV.

It's not that Tesla doesn't make off-road vehicles and does not compete with Xinghai Group.

What he saw was the ternary lithium battery, motor, automatic driving system, etc. adopted by the Hummer EV, all of which surpassed Tesla.

Tesla's battery is purchased from LG and Panasonic, the motor is also purchased from outside, and the electronic control system and automatic driving system are self-developed.

What Musk sees is another level. If Xinghai Group is also engaged in electric cars and compact SUVs, can Tesla beat Xinghai Group?

Now, Musk has no confidence.

Why, the ternary lithium batteries and motors are self-developed, and the cost is much lower than their outsourcing cost.

The same battery cost, their battery life is 400KM, others' battery life is 600KM, the same price, the same configuration, if the appearance of the car is not considered, who will customers choose?

Now, Musk panicked.

They haven't made any money from electric cars yet and are currently losing money.

What's so special, a stirrer came, which not only made Tesla uneasy, but it is estimated that many car companies were also panicked.

No, because Xinghai Group's three-electric technology has subverted the automotive industry.

It's not that the Hummer EV is selling well and everyone panics.

No, if it's just this big picture, these car companies are almost close to bankruptcy.

What they see is what kind of changes will Xinghai Group's three-electric technology bring to electric vehicles, and what kind of impact will it bring to gasoline vehicles.

These car companies can see the disadvantages of electric vehicles and also see the advantages.

Now, Xinghai Group has solved some key problems of electric vehicles. Electric vehicles and gasoline vehicles will inevitably conflict. Consumers will only choose one of the two types of vehicles, which must cause sales impact to other types of vehicles.

Jerome watched for a long time, filmed the scene, and sent the live video to Musk at night.

The exhibition area of ​​Xinghai Group is very crowded, there are many layers of audience inside and outside, the media and car companies are peers.

At the booth, many local tyrants asked the staff of Xinghai Group to inquire about car reservations. After they verified their identity certificates and had the ability to purchase and register, they could enter the venue to touch the car.

Among them, there is a local tyrant with a hat, his name is Qin Fen, standing in front of the top-end Hummer EV in the middle, looking at it, he said to himself: "Wh, the speed from 100 kilometers is 3.2 seconds, which is average. Supercars are not that fast, 5.5 meters in length, 2.2 meters in width, 800 kilometers of battery life, anti-vibration performance over the buffer belt, super-large and ultra-wide tires, L2 autopilot system, really incredible, invincible , super invincible car, I love it! I must buy it!"

The local tyrant Qin Fen asked the staff: "What? No car! Isn't this a car?"

"I'm sorry, the show car can't be sold. Our chairman explained that we can't sell it for any amount of money. Don't embarrass us, this brother. You are not the first to ask, there are no less than 20 people." The staff Replied politely, it's really tiring to explain.

"I understand, I didn't say to pick up the car now. I can wait until the exhibition is over and then pick up the car. It's three million. Can I sell it? I can just cash it!" What do you know if Xinghai Group can mass-produce cars normally?

Moreover, the country does not know when it will be mass-produced.

With this car, friends gather and directly slap their sports cars. No Bentley, Rolls-Royce, or Ferrari can pull the wind out of this car.

"I'm really sorry, I can't decide this matter and must report it to the chairman."

"Okay, I can wait, where to register, do you want a deposit?"

The staff was stunned all of a sudden. The mass-produced car cost only one hundred and several hundred thousand dollars. In order to pick up the car a few months earlier, they would rather spend one or two million more. What a local tyrant.

He was about to answer when another local tyrant came up: "Brother, don't say three million, if you can pick up the car, I'll buy it for five million, and I'm not short of money."

"Who are you, there must be a first come, first come, do you understand the rules?"

"It's none of your business. This car doesn't belong to you. Whoever has more money can buy it. What's wrong with me paying five million! It doesn't mean that you came first. I've come a long time ago." Wang Cong has no stage fright.

"It's as if someone is short of five million, I give six million!"

"Six million and sixty thousand!"

"It seems like an extra 60,000 is a big deal." Qin Fen took out the key in his pocket and scratched it directly on the door. He wanted to scrape off a layer of paint, but he was so hard that it only scratched a little. The marks did not hurt the paint surface, "I have some marks on this car, it is mine, 6.66 million, I am out."

"You are the best!" Wang Sicong gave him a thumbs up, not expecting to meet a ruthless man.

Qin Fen's coquettish operation also shocked the on-site media and audience, as well as the on-site staff.

Of course it scratched the paint!

Qin Fen didn't leave, and raised his hand directly: "I scratched this car. I admit that I am willing to accept the amount of compensation. 6.66 million, I will buy this car."

This time, the surrounding crowd was even more shocked. In order to buy a car, this trick is ruthless enough.

The staff of Xinghai Group were also confused, and they found the person in charge of the exhibition area.

The person in charge of the Hummer exhibition area is Dong Yuan, deputy general manager of sales of Xinghai Group.

"Little brother, you are a little impulsive. You have already caused us trouble. Fortunately, the paint was not damaged. Otherwise, it is not just as simple as 6.66 million yuan. You will have a very bad impact on us and destroy our operations. Work." Dong Yuan waved his hand and told the security guard not to subdue the local tyrant.

"I apologize to you. I know I was a little impulsive just now, but I really want to buy this car. I like it very much. I can pay 6.66 million yuan. I can pay the full amount now and wait until the auto show to pick up the car." Qin Fen is young, but he still understands what he should understand. He also felt a little impulsive just now, and glared at Wang Sicong who was arguing with him just now.

"Uh..." Dong Yuan was in trouble now, and after thinking about it, he could actually make this decision directly.

What he saw was not the 6.66 million yuan, but the creation of this hot topic. If he wants the Hummer EV to continue to be hot news tomorrow, it will not only be worth 6.66 million yuan.

"Okay, you can pay 6.66 million yuan first, register it, leave your name and phone number, as well as the ID number, whether it can be sold to you in the end, I need to apply to the chairman, I hope you understand."

"Okay, no problem." Qin Fen readily agreed.

Dong Yuan was also afraid that other local tyrants would do the same thing as Qin Fen, so he stopped letting the audience get close to the car and asked the security guard to maintain it on the spot.
