Chapter 887 If you want to do it, achieve absolute monopoly (1)
The intersection test of Cangqiong Auto is actually very simple.
Any driver who can drive a car on the road, as long as his skills are not too bad, will step back a meter or two when encountering an intersection to let the car on the opposite side pass before passing through the blocked road section.
This is very simple for people.
But for the intelligent driving system of new energy vehicles, this requires more complex algorithms.
If intelligent driving technology backs up every time a car is parked in front of it, how can it be determined whether the other person is waiting in line to pass or is parked there?
This problem is a huge problem for any intelligent driving company and is very difficult to solve.
Cars are not supercomputers.
Many new energy vehicle companies and intelligent driving technology vehicle companies currently have no way to overcome the above problems.
Because according to the current mainstream silicon crystal chips on the market and conventional programming methods.
The operation logic of an emergency scenario will result in a huge amount of data and operation rules.
As for road traffic, there are too many uncertain and unpredictable factors.
This amount of calculations and data is unbearable for ordinary supercomputers, let alone the crude versions of chips and systems installed in cars.
It is for this reason that assisted driving technologies, including Tesla's, only support traffic conditions with very regular traffic signs and regular roads.
As for the alley intersection just now, for Tesla's L-level assisted driving, it is like an elementary school student solving high-level math problems.
This is something that even a fool can't figure out, so how can there be a solution?
As for Cangqiong Automobile, it completed such a test with ease.
This completely shows that Cangqiong Auto’s autonomous driving technology and on-board intelligence technology have already reached the top level.
The world's first generation of truly driverless technology is not from Tesla, nor from Google or Apple, but from Cangqiong Automobile, a subsidiary of Changtian Technology.
At the press conference, Chen Xiao said: "Cangqiong Auto's on-board intelligent system is comprehensive, so in addition to driverless technology, users can feel at home in the car."
In the demonstration video that follows, the driver and passengers in the car can control some functions of the car through voice control or through wearable devices they carry.
For example, opening and closing windows, closing doors, air conditioning, music, entertainment functions, etc.
On top of the demonstration video, there was also a very surprising scene of doing this.
When the autonomous driving mode is turned on, the entire cab's console shrinks.
The cab becomes a very comfortable and spacious seating position.
The driver can lie on the seat like a passenger and enjoy the journey.
These are not the most important.
Most importantly, users can control the car remotely.
During the introduction of the video, a short video was played.
Using wearable devices at home, users can be in virtual car scenes and drive Cangqiong cars.
Changtian Technology is currently discussing with relevant national departments on popularizing 5G communications.
But most areas at home and abroad still have 4G networks.
Coupled with the influence of digital and bandwidth or base stations in some areas, the network is not so stable.
Therefore, virtual driving technology is used in conjunction with intelligent driverless technology.
The purpose of this is to avoid unnecessary dangers caused by the user suddenly being unable to control the car due to network reasons and the car being disconnected in an emergency.
Used in conjunction with driverless technology, this ensures that the car can drive smoothly even when the user is disconnected.
I just listened to Chen Xiao’s introduction and watched the short video of the scene.
At the press conference, the audience was stunned.
They are quite doubtful whether they are living in 2017 or watching a car launch in 2017?
Because the technology of Changtian Technology is so advanced, the car does not feel like a product of this era in terms of energy, power or intelligence.
At today's press conference, Cangqiong Automobile used any technology to compare it with any automobile company in the world today. The other technical standards were completely superior to the other's.
Not only the audience at the scene felt this way, but also the netizens watching the live broadcast felt a little confused.
After a short silence.
The entire live broadcast room was boiling.
“It’s hard to believe that this is smart car technology in 2017!”
“I remember that not long ago, I saw a very strange test vehicle in Shanghai. At that time, I was wondering why there was no steering wheel and instrument panel in the cab. Now I know, it turned out to be Changtian Technology’s Cangqiong vehicle being tested.
!”
"No one will say that Changtian's technology is plagiarized now, right? Which car company or smart company in the world can have such advanced smart technology?"
"It's really shocking! When domestic car companies put a large tablet in the car and regard it as automotive intelligent technology, Changtian Technology has always left them behind."
"The integration of super-intelligent humans and vehicles may be the smart driving technology that represents the future!"
“I don’t know how much the Cangqiong car will cost, but I really hope to buy one!”
"This thing is simply an artifact! Anyway, the driving sales are energy blocks, and it doesn't cost much. When I go shopping in the future, I can drive there, and then let the Cangqiong Car go home automatically or find a cheap parking lot, park it myself, and wait for us
They were picking us up after shopping, which saved us a lot of parking time!”
"Wow, it seems to be true! I think this car is really useful for our unit! Every time we drive to a meeting or participate in project negotiations, there is no parking place. If we can drive intelligently, we can
It’s really great to send it over and then automatically return it to the unit!”
“Very attractive, I hope to buy one!”
“I don’t know what the price is! I look forward to Chen Xiao announcing the price!”
Netizens around the world who are watching the live broadcast of this conference have contributed countless influences.
At the press conference, Chen Xiao stood in the center of the stage.
He can feel a steady stream of influence.
This time the decision to convene Qianqiong Auto to release the rules was the right one.
As the technology tree becomes increasingly difficult to climb, it is important to accumulate more influence as quickly as possible.
After the video on the big screen was played, all the lights at the front desk of the press conference were turned on, and all the lights were focused on the Cang Qiong car.
Under the control of the background, all four doors of the Cangqiong car were opened, and the extremely luxurious and elegantly colored interior was presented to everyone.
Chen Xiao walked up to Cangqiong Automobile and said: "Currently, Cangqiong Automobile's driverless technology has obtained permission from relevant national departments."
“Autonomous driving can hit the road!”
The audience at the scene burst into applause.
"How much does this car cost?"
Someone in the audience yelled and asked.
This is actually the question that many people want to know right now.
Chen Xiao said with a smile: "As you wish, I will now announce the final selling price of Cangqiong Car."
At this time, Chen Xiao was still interacting with netizens watching the live broadcast online.
A price guessing pop-up window will pop up on the official live broadcast channel recognized by Changtian Technology and at the virtual conference site.
Users are invited to guess the price of the top trim of Cangqiong Auto.
If the guess is correct, and the guess is accurate to one digit, Changtian Technology will give away a set of Zemeng wearable devices. If the guess is accurate to 10 digits, Changtian Technology will give away a Hanhai 3 mobile phone.
As soon as this event came out, it attracted a large number of netizens to participate.
Changtian Technology’s official live broadcast room on Douyin attracted 30 million netizens in an instant, reaching its peak.
Such terrible data also makes many Internet celebrities or official accounts of other brands of cars envious.
Each user can guess the price once.
Of course the prices are all kinds of weird.
"With such advanced technology, such clean and cheap energy, the price must be not cheap! I guess 10 million!"
"Are you crazy upstairs? What car can be sold for 10 million? I think the price of the top model should be around 2 million."
“I agree, I guess it’s 2.18 million!”
"1.3 million! 1.3212 million, I hope I can get a Zemeng device."
At the press conference, many representatives of other brands of cars were already silently guessing the sales price of Cangqiong Car.
An ideal car, with four wheels, a chassis, and a big screen, could be sold for five to six hundred thousand yuan.
Representatives from Ideal believe that Cosmic New Energy Vehicle has such awesome high-tech and efficient clean energy. If Ideal had such technology, it would definitely sell for more than 3 million yuan.
Those who have the same idea include Xpeng’s new car manufacturing company in the future.
In fact, representatives of the future are even thinking that if you take any of the new energy technology of Changtian Technology or the intelligence of Cangqiong Automobile and give it to the future, future cars will be able to become the top-ranked cars in the world.
After thinking of this, the future representative silently sighed in his heart, Changtian Technology is really terrible.
If the price of Cangqiong Automobile is within a reasonable range, there will be no market for either lithium battery vehicles or fuel vehicles.
The representative shook his head. He was just a staff member, not the CEO of the car company.
So he doesn't need to think about such troublesome things.
The worst case scenario is that I will go bankrupt in the future and just find another job by myself.
How much does Cangqiong Car cost?
Chen Xiao, Gao Miao and others discussed the price of Cangqiong Automobile in detail.
Everyone classifies Cangqiong Automobile as an automobile product.
But Chen Xiao is not like that.
Chen Xiao classifies Cangqiong Auto as an electronic FMCG, the same as mobile phones and laptops.
The biggest advantage of this product is that it can be integrated into large-scale production.
As long as a product can be integrated and scaled, its production cost will be very low.
To the outside world, Cangqiong Auto's bio-battery and intelligent system must be quite valuable.
But as far as Changtian Technology is concerned, these two technologies happen to be the least valuable.
The intelligent system only needs to inject the corresponding sensors of the chip and the Yinghuo Automobile Edition operating system into the car.
Changtian Technology has passed the research and development stage. As long as products such as software and chips pass the research and development stage and enter the mass production stage, the cost will be ridiculously low.
Biobatteries cost less.
This is the most mature technology of Changtian Technology.
Therefore, through repeated calculations, if we only calculate the production cost, the production cost of a top-end Cangqiong car is less than 150,000 yuan.
Changtian Technology's cost of producing cars is calculated and used accurately and quantitatively.
In addition, Changtian Technology's powerful artificial intelligence sets up production units for the factory, so costs can be minimized.
Such production costs are far lower than Tesla, Ideal, Xpeng or even BYD’s new energy technologies.
Let’s not talk about Li Xpeng’s future cars. They actually lose money by selling a car.
The most fundamental reason is that the core technology is not in our own hands and we adopt the foundry production model.
The core technology and production are not in our own hands, we only rely on concepts and online marketing.
How can it be possible for this kind of car factory to reduce production costs?
The production cost of Changtian Technology Cangqiong Automobile is 150,000
The main costs are still human resource costs and some raw material costs.
Gao Miao used the supercomputer of Changtian Technology to conduct simulation calculations.
After the factories in Chengdu and Shanghai are completed and the scale of intensive production is expanded, the production cost can be reduced to less than 100,000 yuan, or even lower.
After the cost is fixed, it becomes a question of sales price.
Many car companies in Xia Guo have just been established, and they are shouting slogans that they will become the world's first-class car companies, produce luxury cars, and compete with Bentley, Rolls-Royce, etc.
This is actually very unrealistic.
An automobile company must first survive, then occupy the market, and finally establish its own luxury brand.
A company that has never produced a car is suddenly established, and then tells the world that it produces luxury cars. Will anyone pay for it?
Consumers will definitely not approve of it.
BBA, the luxury car group with the best sales volume in the world, started out as an ordinary family car, and it got to where it is today step by step.
Therefore, the pricing of Cangqiong Auto must not be outrageous, and it must not be too low.
Since Changtian Technology and Chen Xiao have decided to make cars, they definitely cannot just sell tens of thousands to 20,000 units a month.
Chen Xiao's goal is to achieve an absolute and complete monopoly on the automobile industry.
It is to completely defeat all the mainstream new energy vehicles and fuel vehicles currently on the market!
In the future, there will only be two groups in the entire automobile industry.
Occupy an absolute advantage and sales volume of Cangqiong Automobile and others.
And if the car price is set too low, it will do great harm to the brand.
Taking Wuling as an example, if the Wuling brand, which has always been mainly selling cheap cars, can enter the 300,000-yuan market, it is not impossible, but it will definitely cost Wuling a huge price and a long time.
Chen Xiao said at the press conference: "Cangqiong Automobile has fully considered the current domestic and foreign market conditions and the actual user experience of users, and launched three versions."
