Chapter 396 Mango Car shines all over the world, Zhang Shuo reaches the pinnacle of life!
May 30, Thursday, Shanghai.
After Zhang Shuo checked into the hotel, he was busy meeting with all parties before he had time to rest.
The most important one is of course the talks with the Shanghai Municipal Government. In addition to communicating about the construction status of the Mango Automobile Super Factory, they also conducted substantive negotiations on the construction of Mango charging piles in Shanghai.
Shanghai obviously strongly supports the development of new energy vehicles.
Especially seeing the rapid development of Mango Auto, with a concept car launched in just one year, it has built a lot of confidence in Mango Auto, and its support is getting stronger and stronger.
Like the construction of charging piles, without official endorsement, Mango Group alone cannot handle it.
And if there are no perfect and convenient charging piles, the development of new energy vehicles will be a castle in the air and will not work at all.
Fortunately, China has always been crazy about infrastructure construction. If we really make up our mind to do it, we can advance very quickly.
Enough to keep up with the sales progress of Mango Cars.
………
The next morning.
Accompanied by Tang Xiang, President of Mango Group, Zhang Shuo enthusiastically visited the Mango Automobile Super Factory under construction. The factory covers an area of nearly a thousand acres and is now quite large-scale.
"If everything goes well, it will be put into trial operation in mid-October," Tang Xiang said with a smile.
Before the super factory was officially put into production, a small number of concept cars in the early stage were assembled and produced in factories rented by Mango Group. The efficiency was low, but it could barely meet the requirements.
“I’m looking forward to Mango Cars shining!”
Today is destined to be a very memorable day. The much-anticipated Mango m1 will be unveiled tonight, showing the world its budding ambitions in the field of new energy vehicles.
For the birth of Mango m1.
In just over a year, Sprout has invested more than 20 billion in funds, and Mango Group has more than 10,000 R&D personnel all over the world.
The manggo development team for the assisted driving system that Chen Ping personally chairs has more than 2,000 people.
It will continue to increase in the future.
The purpose is to create a stunning work.
Due to the previous warm-up, the launch of Mango m1 has also attracted attention from all parties, and Germination is also very popular. Pangda Live will broadcast the entire process online to record this historic moment.
In order to attract the most attention, the conference time is set at 8 pm.
The location was chosen at the Shanghai International Convention Center.
At 6:30 in the afternoon, the International Convention Center opened its entrance channels to the outside world, and media reporters, car experts, budding fans, groups of relatives and friends, guests, etc. who received invitations began to enter the venue one after another.
Among the guests were not only the official personnel of the Magic City, but also many business tycoons.
For example, Zeng Qun, chairman of Linde New Energy.
Another example is Wang Fu, chairman of BYAT, and Li Hu, chairman of Geely Automobile.
They are all seniors in the automotive industry.
Of course, compared to last year's Maili x1 launch conference, because there are not many peers in the new energy vehicle industry in China, the stars in today's launch conference are far less bright than before.
But Zhang Shuo's existence itself is already the biggest draw card.
Germination has also passed the stage of needing to be supported by peers. It can advance rapidly by relying solely on itself.
The lone brave man belongs to yes.
Amid the commotion, the time soon came and the stage lights suddenly went out.
A countdown appears on the big screen——
"10,9,8,7..."
The budding fans in the audience were very cooperative and consciously shouted along with the countdown.
The atmosphere immediately rose.
"3,2,1!"
As the countdown ended, a beam of light lit up in the center of the stage. What appeared was not Zhang Shuo, but a silver-white car with a sci-fi style, which instantly became the focus of the audience.
"Wow!!!!"
Whether it is a live audience or an online audience, the first feeling is amazing.
It's really amazing.
Simple and crisp lines, avant-garde front, body design, cool logo, and exquisite paint all highlight the extraordinary nature of this car.
"Just because of this good looks, I have the urge to buy!!"
"The rich guy upstairs!"
"You can always trust Bu Ya's aesthetics, there is really no one else."
The most incredible thing is that the outside world originally thought that this press conference of the Mango Group was, at most, a concept car promotion to the outside world, and it was still in the stage of building momentum.
Unexpectedly, the finished car was displayed right away, which is so nice!
Use facts to respond to outside doubts——
"Mainya is serious about building cars!"
Amidst the commotion, the car door suddenly opened, and Zhang Shuo walked out of the car, extending his hand to the audience to greet him.
"Cute King! Cute King! Cute King!!"
Whether it was the budding fans at the scene or the netizens watching the live broadcast, they were immediately excited. The barrage in the live broadcast room was like a machine gun, covering the entire screen in an instant.
It can be seen that Zhang Shuo is very popular.
"Good evening, welcome to the Mango m1 press conference. I am Zhang Shuo." Along with the minimalist opening remarks, the ppt behind Zhang Shuo popped up with the theme word of this press conference——
Mango m1, redefines cars.
"Hey, why do these words look familiar?"
"Doesn't it look familiar? Isn't this the original advertising slogan of Maili x1?"
"Cry me to death, Mo Ya is still as bold as ever."
"People are determined to be disruptors. First they will subvert the mobile phone industry, and then they will subvert the automobile industry."
"You're full of anticipation at once, aren't you?"
Wang Fu, Li Hu and other industry seniors sitting in the audience just smiled and applauded.
"Why do you want to build a car?"
On the stage, Zhang Shuo started his performance, "Because electric vehicles represent the future development direction, fuel vehicles are neither sustainable development nor conducive to environmental protection."
This is also the biggest advantage of electric vehicles.
"Why does Sprout build a car?" Zhang Shuo continued to ask.
ppt gave the answer quickly.
Including the establishment of the Mango Automobile R&D team, the research and development of assisted driving systems, the construction of the super factory, etc., the efforts of the Mango Group in the past year were demonstrated to online and offline audiences.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Don’t just stop at the ppt.
"Okay, no wonder it's so hard to come up with the finished product so quickly!"
"This is real money dropped."
“When it comes to research and development, you can always trust Sprout!”
"I used to think that Moya was professional in the Internet business. But now, shouldn't it be the manufacturing industry that Moya is most professional in? It can subvert the entire industry every time."
"We still have to look at the specific performance parameters of the Mango car, right?"
As if responding to the audience's appeal, Zhang Shuo on the stage was not at all irritated and directly began to introduce in detail the first concept car of Mango Group - Mango m1!
"What does an electric car look like in your imagination? Complex to operate, short in battery life, and ugly in appearance?"
"Hahaha!!"
The audience laughed kindly. Many people who have never been exposed to electric cars will indeed think so.
“What about actual electric cars?”
"Mango m1 is equipped with a self-developed vehicle-mounted assisted driving system - mango2.0, which can realize assisted driving, assisted parking, and automatic driving when necessary."
"Wow, are you so awesome?"
Even though the audience had raised their expectations for the Mango m1, they were still taken aback.
"Sure enough, Mo Ya still has the Internet gene in his bones, so he knows that a company that started on the Internet cannot make a car without integrating and upgrading information technology."
"This is so cool!"
"It is said that Qiandu has been engaged in research and development of autonomous driving technology, but so far, it seems that there have been no results. Instead, it was Sprout who took the lead in coming up with the finished product."
"Qiandu: I'm telling you a story, do you believe it?"
"I heard from King Meng that this mango system was developed five years ago. It was only after it was acquired by Mango Group that version 2.0 was developed."
“Full of absolute sincerity!”
"I, I, I have the urge to buy again!"
"Not only the assisted driving system, but also the on-board chip of the Mango m1 was specially developed by Zhulong Technology, a subsidiary of Sprout, which is very impressive."
Mango Auto’s exclusive chip is named Red Rabbit series.
The Chitu C1 chip has also completed the design work. Because it does not require too advanced manufacturing technology, it has been handed over to its budding partner, Lijing Group, for foundry.
Subsequent production and manufacturing will be handed over to Weijing Semiconductor.
As for the packaging and testing of the chips, they are handed over to Licheng Technology, a subsidiary of Daosui Group.
A closed loop is formed.
After that, Zhang Shuo showed off the interior of the Mango m1. Since there is no fuel engine, the Mango m1 has larger activity space and storage space with the same body size.
Bringing a more comfortable driving experience.
Whether it is the operation interface or the interior, the minimalist style has been chosen.
It is very in line with the aesthetics of young people.
“Just for this good looks, you can’t help but love it!!!”
"For car enthusiasts who pursue large space, electric vehicles are simply good news."
"The question is, how far can this thing drive without running out of battery halfway? That's the end of it."
…
"Some people may be worried that the Mango m1 has insufficient battery life and cannot take a quick trip? In fact, the Mango m1 has a range of up to 250 kilometers on a single charge."
Here, Zhang Shuo also specifically mentioned the battery developed in cooperation with Linde New Energy.
"Two hundred and fifty kilometers? You can drive it in the city."
“It’s okay in the suburbs too (dog head)!”
"It's okay. If there is a charging place at the expressway service station, it can still be used."
“But I still feel it’s not as convenient as a fuel vehicle.”
…
"In order to provide the highest quality service to the majority of car owners, Mango Group has reached a strategic cooperation with Magic City and will build no less than 100 super charging stations in Shanghai for the use of Mango car owners."
“The first offline experience center under Mango Group is also located in Shanghai.”
In a word.
The first batch of people who can experience Mango Auto in person are basically Magic City users.
"But don't worry..."
In the next year, Mango Group will spend billions to deploy charging stations and experience centers in major first- and second-tier cities in China, and quickly launch the Mango m1 to the market.
As for production capacity...
Zhang Shuo showed photos of the construction site of the Mango Super Factory, as well as the final renderings. After it is put into operation, only the first phase of the project will achieve an annual production capacity of 500,000 vehicles.
Sufficient to meet market demand.
"This factory looks so big. It's like a sprout. It's such a big deal."
"It's also very high-end, most of them are automated production lines."
"In the automotive industry, automated production has become a general trend, but it's nothing to worry about."
“But it still feels awesome!”
"What I'm most concerned about now is when Mango cars will go on sale and what the price will be!"
After reading the introduction, many people were moved.
Especially for young people, such an electric car is really attractive.
In addition, in places like Shanghai and Beijing, new energy vehicles can not only enjoy car purchase subsidies, but the key is that they can get a green license without having to try their luck in a lottery.
This alone is enough to be lethal.
Zhang Shuo also complied with public opinion and announced the delivery time and pricing of Mango m1. "The starting price of Mango m1 is 248,000, and the first batch of deliveries is expected to be completed in late November at the earliest."
Before the press conference, the Mango Group's official website has opened a pre-order channel. Users who book within 24 hours of the press conference can enjoy an additional 8,000 discount.
"Wow, more than two hundred thousand, I can't afford it, I can't afford it."
"At this price, wouldn't it be delicious to buy Highlander?"
"Are you crazy about money? The price is on par with mid-range cars."
“I can’t afford it even if I don’t eat or drink for a year.”
"Those people upstairs don't understand the true value of electric cars at first glance. With the appearance and configuration of the Mango M1, can an ordinary mid-range fuel-powered car compare with it?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "One more thing, the Mango car is rechargeable, so you can save a lot of money on gas."
Everyone who drives knows this.
To maintain a car, in addition to the money to buy the car, the subsequent fuel consumption and maintenance also take up a large part.
In this area, electric vehicles have an absolute advantage. Otherwise, the new car-making forces in the original space and time often produce electric vehicles worth more than 300,000 yuan, and they would not sell so well.
Existence is reasonable!
And as a concept model, Mango M1, to be honest, the pricing of Mango M1 is definitely on the low side based only on the initial R&D investment and production and operation investment.
Basically -
Every time a Mango M1 is sold, one car's money is lost.
Only after the Mango Super Factory is fully put into production and the total sales of Mango m1 exceeds 100,000 units and a certain scale effect is achieved can profitability be truly realized.
And it's only a small profit.
Compared with the money grabbing of Maili mobile phone, it is really far behind.
Since there was only one new product released, the entire conference ended in less than half an hour.
It’s so willful!!!
At the end of the press conference, Zhang Shuo stepped down from the stage and greeted his colleagues such as Zeng Qun, Wang Fu, and Li Hu. He thanked them for coming to the event today and chatted a few words by the way.
“It’s amazing!”
As the earliest pioneer to enter the field of new energy vehicles, Wang Fu, Chairman of BYAT, had an imperceptible solemnity in his eyes, obviously feeling the pressure from Mango Auto.
In comparison.
Li Hu, chairman of Geely Automobile, was more curious and said to Zhang Shuo with a smile: "Mr. Zhang, if there is a plan, Mango Automobile and Geely Automobile can start cooperation and exchanges."
"sure!"
Zhang Shuo also responded positively.
For a company like Geely Automobile, which has overcome many obstacles all the way, there is really a lot worth learning.
"Mr. Zhang, congratulations!"
Zeng Qun was the last one to step forward to shake hands with Zhang Shuo, his face full of excitement.
He still remembers that two years ago, when Mo Ya and Zhang Shuo were still relatively unknown, they suddenly came to him and offered to invest in the new company he was preparing to build.
I originally thought it was just a budding speculation.
Looking back now, I am afraid that at that time, the young man Zhang Shuo had already had the idea of building a car in his mind, right?
It's really incredible.
In the past year, Linde New Energy and Mango Automobile have formed a strategic cooperation. The cooperation between the two parties on vehicle batteries is also accelerating the development of Linde New Energy.
It can be said that they promote each other.
Today, Zeng Qun of course pays more attention to the strategic partner of Sprout.
"Mr. Zeng, we are so happy!" Zhang Shuo smiled.
"Yes, congratulations!"
The smile on Zeng Qun's face became brighter and brighter, and he became more optimistic about the prospects of Linde New Energy.
While Zhang Shuo was chatting with the big guys, the audience who came to attend the press conference did not leave because the press conference was over. Instead, they came to the stage to see the physical Mango M1 car.
On Nuoda's booth, four Mango M1s were lined up at the moment.
In addition to the original silver model (Lu Bai), there are also red rabbit red, flying yellow and black black.
It is also the current mainstream color matching of Mango cars.
Under the light, the four Mango cars look like four horses traveling through time and space, mysterious and dazzling.
Become the center of attention.
People kept raising their mobile phones to take pictures, and then eagerly posted them on WeChat Moments.
There are still words in his mouth.
"So beautiful, so beautiful!"
After watching it up close, you can feel the real charm of Mango Car. There are exaggerated male figures who touch the car body as if they are touching something, with a face full of intoxication.
It gave others goosebumps all over the place.
For those who can’t wait, they have logged into the official app of Mango Group and started booking directly.
One word - trench!!!
………
After the press conference, the big discussion about Mango m1 has just begun to ferment. If there are hot searches, then these keywords are expected to be on the list soon.
Autopilot...
Self-developed chip…
Super high pricing…
Super good looks...
Mango m1 itself is full of topics, and with the blessing of Zhang Shuo, the traffic king, it is impossible not to be discussed. It is bound to set off a wave of public opinion around mango m1.
At the same time, Mango m1’s advertising and marketing planning will gradually reach its peak.
TV advertisements, online advertisements, promotional soft articles, etc., are all online under the joint planning of the Puya Group Operations Center and the Mango Group.
It is bound to set off a new round of "god-making movement".
Not only netizens were talking about it, but all major media, whether financial or automotive, also joined in the fun and reported on the grand event of the press conference from different angles.
The titles are also more talented than the last.
"Mango car made a stunning appearance, the quality is beyond imagination!!!!"
"Mr. Ya: We are serious about building cars!!!"
"Zhang Shuo once again became the focus of the entire network and was praised by netizens as the founder who knows the most about technology!!!"
"Sprouting Group has added another weapon, its valuation has skyrocketed, and it is expected to exceed one trillion yuan, and Dream Fund will become the biggest winner!"
"The rise of new energy vehicles is imminent, and the dawn has arrived!!!"
If the next day had not been a weekend, it is estimated that the stock prices of listed companies related to new energy would have experienced a surge due to the impact of the Mango Car conference.
This is no joke.
As the photos and videos taken by offline viewers were posted to Moments, and then moved to major forums, websites, scarves, and online netizens were almost going crazy with excitement.
"Oh my god, I never thought cars could be so cool!!"
"What kind of car is this? It's simply a work of art. The budding design level really makes me cry to death."
"Yes, rich people have another toy."
Because the popularity is so high, even Internet celebrities like Shi Cong have come forward to join in the fun, posting screenshots of successful orders for Mango M1 on the official website, and then posting them on their neck scarves.
And I ordered four of them at once, one of each color.
"I cried to death. I couldn't resist the temptation of the mango car even if I tore off the onions."
"Is this the life of rich people? Buying a mango car is just like us buying mango fruit."
"It's so funny. Four cars put together are not as powerful as one sports car. It's really just a joke."
You can imagine.
In the coming period, Mango cars will usher in a new fashion.
This is not only because the Mango m1 itself is excellent, but more importantly, it is a mid-to-high-end car independently developed and produced by a local Chinese company, and its meaning is completely different.
It is completely different from those joint venture brands.
Of course, netizens were extremely excited, and they were very excited.
Just like witnessing the birth of Maili x1.
No.
In a sense, the birth of Mango m1 is even more significant than Maili x1.
First thing.
As one of the representative works of heavy industry, automobiles have always been a big concern for Chinese people.
Secondly, before the birth of Maili x1, many domestic and foreign manufacturers such as Samsung, Pingguo, Nokia, and even H Factory had already achieved success in this area.
In the field of electric vehicles, Mango Auto has only one competitor -
Teshila, who was not very famous in China at this time.
This made the Chinese people's pride surge instantly. They believed that in the new heavy industry field of electric vehicles, Mango Motors had single-handedly carved out a new territory and was expected to reshape the new pattern of the global automobile industry and truly complete its overseas expansion.
Car brand overtaking in corners.
Can you not be excited?
It’s no wonder that Zhang Shuo is considered a god by netizens.
Because it was so shocking, relevant news, including the live replay of the press conference, spread on the global Internet overnight and became one of the hot topics among netizens around the world.
The first reaction of many overseas netizens was that it was incredible.
"How is it possible? How is it possible? A Chinese company is the first to make a breakthrough in the field of electric vehicles?"
Then when I saw it was a budding line, I seemed to feel a lot relieved.
after all.
After the previous conflict between Moya and Sanxing, Moya is not an ordinary person in the hearts of netizens around the world.
But I still couldn't hide my shock.
Especially netizens from the beautiful country, one after another @老马: "Wake up, Teshila is in danger!!!"
Yes.
Teshila on the other side of the ocean finally ushered in the strongest competitor.
