Sometimes it's like this, temporary success does not represent the future.
Even life is more dramatic than movies. Maybe most experts are wrong, and maybe the so-called scientific laws will soon be broken. Otherwise, how can there be this famous saying - the truth is often on the side of a few people
Woolen cloth?
Therefore, Li Yuan laughed off Mr. Lun Lang's attitude. There was nothing to be angry about. Reality would soon slap these people in the face anyway.
However, at this moment, a reporter finally recognized Li Yuan, and several people trying to grab the news stopped.
Just like Li Yuan said in a previous chat - among the current high-tech upstarts, Musk is nothing more than a minor celebrity.
Most of the public are actually not familiar with such minor celebrities, but in the circles of Silicon Valley and Wall Street, they are at least one of the heroes on the spectrum.
And Li Yuan belongs to that kind of big celebrity. He has some impression among the public, and his name often appears in the media. But is it really known to all women and children? That's not necessarily true. It's just someone who ranks high in the hero spectrum.
That kind of role.
As for the real superstars, that is the stage for Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Jerry Yang and others. Compared with these people, Li Yuan is still a level lower.
It won't cause that big a stir, but it's not inconsequential either.
Therefore, those reporters have a mentality of fighting for success. And they are also very strange, why does the Yuanzi from Parallel Line Technology appear at this exhibition?
"If I may excuse you, are you the Chinese Miracle Li?"
"Haha. If you are asking about the person on the parallel line, it should be me." Li Yuan was wondering, when did he become "Magic Li"?
"Are you also participating in this international auto show? Are you a spectator? Or...?"
Reporters are already a little confused about Li Yuan's identity. Judging from his position, he is obviously related to this electric car manufacturer, right?
Li Yuan smiled again and nodded: "You guessed it right, I am the founder and SEO of Qinglong Automobile. I have received joint investment from Goldman Sachs and several venture capital investors."
This surprised the reporters: "Okay! Li, is this your new investment project?"
"certainly."
"How was your performance at the exhibition?"
"Haha. Very bad!"
(⊙?⊙)(⊙?⊙)(⊙?⊙)……
The reporters were all stunned. Is this a normal question? Shouldn't we give a few normal answers?
Very bad? What does that mean? I don’t think electric cars like yours... seem to be really bad. Except for a few environmental extremists, there were only a few interested visitors.
"I'm sorry, what you said is bad, is it the kind of bad we understand?"
Li Yuan laughed: "You can understand it this way! Although we, Qinglong Motors, and several electric vehicle companies have made outstanding efforts, it seems that the industry does not give us the necessary respect."
"Oh? Can you give me an example?"
"Like the location of this exhibition, the promotion of the exhibition, etc."
"Huh? Are you questioning this exhibition?" The reporters were looking forward to it. They were obviously causing trouble.
"Of course." Li Yuan seemed undecided and fell into the trap decisively, "In fact, this international auto show can definitely promote the latest trends in the automobile market. But they are still stubbornly conservative and make fuel vehicles the focus of the exhibition. This
It was undoubtedly quite a failure.”
(⊙?⊙)(⊙?⊙)(⊙?⊙)……
The reporters were stunned again. This...should be the legendary map cannon, right? It not only targeted the organizing committee of this international auto show, but also targeted almost all major car brands.
"Excuse my presumption, interrupt me." A reporter squeezed at the front, "Li, why do you say that? Do you think electric vehicles should be the future development direction? They will definitely eliminate fuel vehicles.
?"
"Haha, gentlemen, this is common sense!"
"..." Okay! Let's listen. Is this sophistry? Or is it so-called common sense?
Seeing that the reporters were doubtful, Li Yuan smiled and said: "Because this is the direction of future development? Many civilian technologies generally originate from military technologies. One is the technical aspect, and the other is the cost. This was the case in the previous automobile industry.
, the technical level of fuel engine technology takes into account the two major aspects of cost and ease of use. However, with the development of the high-tech field in recent years, the latest technology has become the car central control system..."
Li Yuan gave a popular science lecture, but the reporters seemed to understand it.
Finally, some reporters could no longer hold themselves back. They were here to grab news, not to listen to the scientific report.
"Sorry to interrupt. Li, when you talk about the latest technology and trends, are you trying to cater to the latest environmental protection needs?"
To be fair, both the traditional fuel automobile industry and the petroleum industry have a subtle rejection of environmental protection.
Isn't that nonsense?
Everyone is going environmentally friendly and riding bicycles, so who will sell the cars to?
In addition, at the beginning of the 20th century, political correctness was not as obsessive as it would be in the future, and the power of traditional industry was still quite strong. Add biofuels or hybrid electric power, and that would be pretty much it, right?
You must know that this was achieved by those extreme environmental organizations in the past, using extreme actions such as bumper boats on the sea. It did not want to become deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and become a very special standard.
It’s true, in the final analysis, everything is business!
Social activities such as environmental protection later evolved into a business.
This is not to say that environmental protection is bad. But environmental protection in European and American countries is mainly to establish barriers and obtain higher benefits.
For example: new energy subsidies, carbon neutrality, carbon tax, etc.
The original purpose was to curb the development of a certain world factory and collect a huge amount of additional taxes. Otherwise, who would be so full that they would turn environmental protection into political correctness?
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! As for a certain world factory that breaks through the siege and occupies a leading position in the field of new energy? That is another matter.
There is even a joke circulating - maybe the country that first charges a carbon tax is the little white rabbit that was originally planned to be killed. (Laughing and crying)
After understanding this, I understood what this reporter meant.
One thing to say is that the European and American countries are currently disapproving of a certain big Eastern country. They don’t think it is the world’s factory or a threat at all, so where do they get the power for new energy and electric vehicles?
Therefore, the question is asked from the perspective of environmental protection. The hidden meaning is - are you hyping the concept? Is this flashy electric vehicle technology really needed?
Li Yuan can definitely understand the meaning of this. He smiled slightly: "There should be many professional explanations about environmental protection. But here I will introduce a few examples! At present, the latest military combat vehicles have begun to
Electric power design. Because a large amount of electronic equipment is required for complex data processing. Some advanced small combat ships have also begun to adopt all-electric power design. Since electronic equipment needs to be driven by electricity, should fossil energy be converted into electrical energy? Then
Isn’t it unnecessary? And it also makes the entire engineering system more complicated? Since the military is one step ahead, civilian products will definitely follow this trend in the future. This is the case with electric cars, and there will be electric ships and even electric aircraft in the future...
"
"Ah?" The reporters were shocked. Is this telling a science fiction story?
In fact, what Li Yuan said is exactly the correct technical route for the future. Don't think that these contents are very sci-fi. For example, BYD's latest off-road vehicle has the power to reach the level of a main battle tank. And the research on battery packs and engines of electric aircraft
, has also become a key project of research institutes in various countries.
Why is this so?
Just because of the widespread use of electronic equipment, the battery of a fuel vehicle cannot be driven? It is better to add a battery pack directly.
It's like the hybrid dilemma.
This is not to say that the technology of hybrid power is not advanced and the idea is not good. Hybrid power can indeed perfectly solve some of the shortcomings of fuel vehicles and electric vehicles. But those are two power systems? It is equivalent to one car and two engines?
So how to solve the cost problem? What about the more critical engineering compatibility issue?
So a fuel vehicle is used? In order to have more and more electronic equipment, you can't keep adding battery packs, right? And the more you add, the more you need another power generation system?
Isn’t that just getting more and more complicated?
So, if you reluctantly add a few more groups, the fuel vehicle can still do it. But if you keep adding it, I can't do it at all!
Obviously, fuel vehicles will definitely not be the choice of the future!
Unless you just don't use the most advanced electronic equipment and just like to drive a shell car?
In addition, of course there is the issue of cost.
There is no need to think about it at all. The cost of electricity is far lower than that of gasoline and diesel, and there is even half price for low-peak electricity at night. If you don’t think about the convenience of refueling, electric energy can almost beat fossil energy.
However, the interesting thing is that although what Li Yuan said here is true, everyone here can't understand it?
"Li, thank you for your introduction. But can we go back to your Qinglong car? From what you say, your Qinglong car seems to be the future?" The tone of these words already contained a hint of ridicule.
Although it is understandable that Mrs. Wang sells melons and boasts about herself. But we should also be more careful, right? You can't just brag nonsense?
Is this kind of electric car sitting in a corner with no one paying attention? Is it possible to subvert the booming gas-powered cars?
Unexpectedly, Li Yuan didn't even blink: "Of course it will be so. This is one of our goals at Qinglong Automobile. The protagonists of this exhibition, they are not our competitors. Our goal is to completely replace them,"
"ah?"
"Just...?" The reporters couldn't help being amused. Is this considered arrogance? Or is it ignorance?
"Sorry, Li, we appreciate your achievements in the Internet field. But in the automotive field, do you know what you just said?"
"Of course I know. This is the mission of our IT people. We will surely lead almost all traditional industries in the future, including the automotive industry."
"ah?"
"Okay!" Another reporter shook his head and smiled bitterly. Anyway, this Chinese Li has turned into a madman. But there is also breaking news, "Then who are your competitors? Haha. Could it be... that they are from the side?
Is this Tesla?”
"Hahaha!"
The reporters were all laughing. The reporter’s casual gesture also made Tesla’s booth speechless. Isn’t it? How come we can all be shot while lying down?
However, Li Yuan's expression remained unchanged. He smiled and shrugged: "Tesla? Competitor? What a good idea! Haha."
"Lee! How many photos can we take?"
"Of course you're welcome. Please do it."
"Li, can you take a photo with this Tesla?"
"Haha. Okay."
"Hahaha--!"
"..."
…
The media in Europe and the United States are relatively developed. Even this "worthless" tidbit has been published in a certain media page.
Of course, it didn't cause much trouble because no one was too lazy to argue against such boring views.
It’s just that there were some sarcastic remarks - that Chinese boy should just keep working on the Internet! As for crossing industries and entering the automobile industry? Forget it! This is not his area of expertise at all.
And such criticism has also caused some minor consequences - some investors who have invested in angel rounds and A rounds think that this project is very unreliable, especially the founder Li Yuan, so they want to
Transfer the equity in your hands as soon as possible.
This caused Goldman Sachs and other venture capital investors to complain, and even complained to Li Yuan.
Li Yuan is quite happy, don’t push him down!
Li Yuan followed the repurchase clause and repurchased part of the equity at a cash price. This just fulfilled his purpose of controlling the company and left Goldman Sachs and others speechless.
Having said that, whether it is cynicism or criticism, Li Yuan actually doesn't care about this yet. He is still building his own entire industry chain...
"Yuanzi, isn't the exhibition over? Why don't we go home yet?" Jiang Qingqing asked strangely.
"There are still a few things that need to be dealt with."
"Is there anything else? I seem to have heard that you didn't even sell a single car at this exhibition? Hehe, hehe!"
"Don't gloat about your misfortune? Otherwise, you won't have a chance to speak for yourself, right?"
"Hey! Rare!"
"Qingqing, this is still a concept car. Except for those true die-hard enthusiasts, no one will order it. Originally, our Qinglong Motors didn't have much reputation. Where did the die-hard fans come from?"
"Hehe, brother Yuan, do you have one? There are many, many in China, and they all like your... mopeds! Hahaha!"
"Little lady, do you like to argue?"
"Hey, this young man, how dare you, a little girl? I just want to tell the truth, no one wants your old car! Hahaha!"
"I understand, your skin is itchy. Hum."
"Wow! What do you want to do? I'm going to call someone! Hahaha——!"
