v2 Chapter 310： Let the doubts come louder

Xinghai Group, an old company.

Office building lobby.

An outsourcing factory owner stood in front of the welding eagle as tall as one person, unable to move his footsteps, stroked the even fish scale welding, and praised:

"Mr. Huo, where did you buy this welding eagle? It's so beautiful. I want to buy one too."

Huo Ming, the business director of Xinghai Group, smiled and said to the middle-aged man with a beer belly, "Mr. Wang, you can't buy this."

When Mr. Wang heard the words, he didn't take it seriously, and said proudly: "It's okay, two or three hundred thousand can still be bought. This eagle is very beautiful, it has not been washed white, and the color distribution is very good, which shows that this welder is very skilled in welding. Look at this craft, the fish scales are evenly distributed, just like robot welding, it's a master work, there's nothing wrong with it, I haven't polished it, I've never seen this bull fork, it's worth the money."

"It's really beautiful, and many bosses want to buy it after seeing it." Huo Ming smiled, "However, this is not a matter of money, our chairman welded it himself, and it's always here.

I don't know much about welding, but people who know welding say that it is definitely a masterpiece in the world. Otherwise, our chairman would not be here, which shows that he is very confident in his own work. "

"Yeah, why is your boss free to weld this thing? Well, when I didn't say it, it's really not something you can buy with money. I just remembered that your boss will weld too. This world is really strange." President Wang smiled awkwardly. He smiled, extended his thumb and praised, "When you see this eagle, you know your company's welding technology level, it is indeed the industry's first."

"That is, in terms of welding equipment, we are indeed No. 1 in the industry, and No. 1 in the world. This is not what I said, but what my peers said. Our secondary welding machines and handheld laser welding equipment have been selling well, and they are also very popular. Limited sale."

"I heard you moved to the new headquarters?"

"Well, the welding business is still here. If there were frequent traffic jams on the surrounding roads, I'll take you to the welding workshop." Huo Ming sighed with emotion, the company has changed a lot.

He is the first batch of employees of the company. He used to be a salesman. Two and a half years later, he has been promoted to business director.

The speed of promotion is not bad, but it has also been promoted to the end. Now the backward employees are all highly educated. They are undergraduates and graduate students of famous universities. He has several famous university students under him.

If he joins the company a few months later, it is estimated that he will not be able to take the position of director.

Fortunately, there are three supervisors in the business department, as long as they do better than their peers.

In the personnel appointment announced by the group company yesterday, he found that the fastest promotion was Jiang Jun, the director of the group office, and now he is directly promoted to the deputy general manager of the group, responsible for overseas business, and the management level jumped from M2 to M4. It's good to be next to the boss.

Although Jiang Jun still has a half-year inspection period, as long as he does not make a big mistake, he will basically rise steadily.

At present, there are about 4,000 employees in the headquarters of the group. If you add the employees of subsidiaries and branches, the total number of employees must be 8,000. He is not sure how many. New employees join the company every day.

Half an hour later, Huo Ming took Boss Wang to visit the welding workshop.

"Mr. Huo, is it convenient to go to your headquarters base? I'm curious."

When Boss Wang asked this, Huo Ming became more alert and shook his head: "You can't enter, even me, you can't enter the laboratory building, and you can't enter some production areas. If you want to see Xinghai Building, you can only go to the Look outside."

Not only him, but every employee of Xinghai Group has to undergo many confidential trainings and exams.

"Oh, that's fine, I didn't expect you to keep secrets so strictly."

Huo Ming smiled and didn't explain more. He didn't know some things about the company, but he could guess it, and the company's confidentiality training was also mentioned.

Their company has many of the world's first technologies, which are definitely coveted by their peers.

He didn't know what the purpose of this boss Wang was, but it was not necessary, Huo Ming made trouble for himself.

…

September 6

At ten o'clock in the morning, Xinghai Group held a new product launch conference.

The goal of holding a new product launch conference is to publicize the products to the outside world, so that the outside world can start paying attention to the new products of Xinghai Group, and it will be a bit late when the products come out.

If it is a small company, it is useless to hold a new product launch conference. If there are no media reporters to go, the coverage will not be able to get hot news, and the reporters will not be able to make much money. It's another matter to give them some money to write soft articles.

Muyang is really building cars, not like some new energy car companies, listing to make money and making money from state subsidies.

A few years later, there are not many new energy vehicle companies that really want to make money by selling cars.

For capitalists, making money by listing is the fastest way to make money.

If the product doesn't sell well or the stock plummets, the risk to consumers is very high, and those promises of lifetime battery warranties are empty words.

The new product launch conference was placed in front of an experimental building in the headquarters base of Xinghai Group, with the background of Xinghai Building behind it.

Now the construction height of Xinghai Building is 400 to 500 meters. It is estimated that the main body can be done well during the National Day, and it will start to enter the decoration stage, which is a bit faster than expected.

Before the new product launch conference, more than 20 media came today, with long guns and short guns on the edge of the stage.

Behind the stage is a very long blue background image with six big characters "New Journey, New Blueprint" and a line of English "New Journey" under the Chinese characters.

Today, only Mu Yang was the host, and he was the only one to answer questions from media reporters.

There are staff and security guards at the scene to maintain the scene. These media reporters can't mess around. If they want to ask a question for a while, they have to raise their hand first, and the staff will give him the microphone only after obtaining permission.

On the morning of September, the weather was slightly cold today. Mu Yang was wearing a casual suit. It was almost time. He walked onto the stage and sat on the stage.

The photographer quickly gave the lens to Mu Yang and gave him a few close-ups.

Mu Yang does not walk in the entertainment industry, but some boys and girls print out his pictures and paste them on the walls or books at home. Some unscrupulous traders even made specific pictures of Muyang to sell. The Legal Department knew that Xiang Muyang had raised this issue. Muyang told them to do it, as long as it was not a product promotional picture, especially those who sold medicines and health products.

There is a company that sells health care products, using Muyang's pictures, claiming that "if you want your child to be smart, drink XX treasure!"

For this kind of company, the Legal Department sees one prosecution of the other, especially Luo Xiang, who hates this kind of unscrupulous company the most.

At this moment, Mu Yang picked up the microphone and started to speak:

"I see that everyone has a heated discussion, and I'm also very curious. That's right, Xinghai Group is preparing to build a car for this new product launch today."

After Mu Yang just finished speaking, seeing that many reporters raised their hands, he calmly said, "Wait for me to finish first, don't rush to ask questions, there will be enough time for everyone to ask questions."

When he said this, the media reporters paused to ask questions and became quiet.

Muyang continued: "If it's a new product launch, everyone will definitely ask me if I have a concept car.

No!

When I decide to do something, I intend to do it to the end, and it will be successful.

Our automobile research institute has just been established, and it will take a long time for new products to come out, but I already have a different car in my mind, which will be a disruptive product. "

"Xinghai Group has the determination to build the car well, not by slogans or bragging, but by strength and by the good reputation of our previous products. We already have a number of world firsts. I think we should try to be in the automotive field..."

"My dream car should no longer be afraid of frequent and constant safety issues such as high-speed collisions, overturns, rear-end collisions, etc. In addition to safety, it should also have functions such as comfort, quietness, greenness, intelligence, and strong passability..."

Mu Yang talked in a eloquent manner, describing some of his ideas about cars.

After he finished speaking, he asked reporters to ask questions in order of seats.

The first reporter asked: "I heard Mr. Mu's dream car, which is really exciting. Safety is indeed the biggest problem, and it is also a problem that all car factories have been studying for many years, but there has not been much improvement. I hope Mr. Mu can solve this problem. question.

Imagine Chinese Network

Mr. Mu's dream is very good. You said that the cruising range of new energy vehicles in the future can reach 1,000 kilometers. As far as I know, the current new energy vehicles with the longest cruising range are actually less than 500 kilometers long. Is this span a bit? long? How long does it take to charge? "

Without hesitation, Mu Yang replied directly: "Well, this beautiful reporter asked a good question and was very polite.

The current situation you mentioned is indeed the case. What I said about the battery life of 1,000 kilometers is not to increase the battery capacity without limit, but to improve the energy density and optimize the structure of the battery. Xinghai Group has established a battery project team to try to solve this problem.

In my mind, there is already a mature plan. It is not my impulse to build a car. In concept, it can reach a mileage of 1,000 kilometers.

If a 2.3-ton large-size SUV wants to drive for 1,000 kilometers, the battery capacity needs to reach more than 170 kWh;

If it is a small car, it is easy to run a thousand kilometers on 170 kWh.

As for the charging time, the battery power is below 80%, and the charging time of 170 kWh is controlled within 1 hour.

Of course, I said these may not be believed by everyone, so stay tuned.

Next person! "

The little beauty reporter who asked the question was praised. Seeing that everyone looked at her one more time, she smiled, and then brushed the hair around her ears. It is a very proud thing to be praised as beautiful by the public in Muyang.

Most of the reporters at the scene were female reporters. When they heard that the first female reporter was praised by Mu Yang, some people who thought they were good looking were not convinced.

The second reporter raised his hand, took the microphone from the staff and asked, "Excuse me, Mr. Mu, what is the price range of Xinghai Group's cars? Who are the consumers?"

"It hasn't been decided yet, but it's definitely the top price, the next one." Muyang doesn't plan to announce it for the time being, so let the media and netizens guess.

Moreover, the car has not yet been built, the price is too early.

"Mr. Mu, why do you have the confidence to build a car? It should be a matter of the car factory." A third reporter questioned.

Mu Yang smiled, but didn't get angry, took a sip of his tea and said, "I won't answer you the slogans of daring to think, daring, daring to do!

Why can't Xinghai Group build a car?

Internet companies can build cars, why can't a machinery company, a company in the field of machinery with many of the world's first technologies, build cars?

We have the world's first aluminum alloy automotive plate, laser welding, and secondary welding machines, the world's advanced production equipment and advanced non-standard production line manufacturing experience. R&D.

Therefore, your concern is on our Xinghai Group,

does not exist at all! "

The next reporter asked: "Mr. Mu, the question raised by reporter Li just now makes sense to me. Maybe the aluminum alloy automotive plates you mentioned are really powerful, but in the field of new energy vehicles, everyone likes to say that you can master the three electric vehicles. Core technology, battery, motor and electronic control, does Xinghai Group have this technology?"

Muyang said truthfully: "At present, Xinghai Group is preparing to develop batteries and motors. We plan to initially invest 20 billion yuan in automobile research and development projects. There are 15 professional research institutes under the General Automobile Research Institute, covering all core technology research and development of the whole vehicle. of the whole process.

As for the electronic control system, in fact, I have already said that the technical level of our fully automated production line is the first in the world. The technical difficulty is more complicated than that of vehicle electronic control. It's not difficult at all, and that's my forte. "

The 20 billion yuan that Mu Yang advocated was actually a 50% discount. He included all assets such as aluminum alloy automotive panels, machining plants, and automated laboratory buildings.

However, there is still a total investment of 10 billion yuan, mainly in battery research and production lines.

The cars he builds won't be mass-produced, and a lot of the investment isn't just for car-building projects, but also in other places.

Otherwise, just building a production line with an annual output of 50,000 vehicles will not be less than one billion yuan.

Mu Yang answered a round of questions from reporters, and the product launch took more than an hour to end.

Not long after the press conference, the news that Xinghai Group was going to build a car almost exploded the circle of friends in the media industry.

News reports quickly appeared on various portals, and netizens were surprised to find that Xinghai Group was going to build a car.

Mu Yang also made an announcement on his Weibo account. So far, his Weibo account has 15 million fans. He has just sent the news and immediately got the support of the fans.

"Professor Mu builds a car. Although I have no money, I must support it!"

"The domestic car is about to rise, I believe in Professor Mu! Xinghai Group is the world's first in everything!"

"Mr. Mu, hurry up and get out the concept car for everyone to appreciate."

Xinghai Group's car-building storm soon swept the auto industry, but most of them were skeptical.

Doubters believe that building a car is never easy, and it is even more difficult for the crossover Xinghai Group.

This is indeed the case. When Xinghai Group first entered the automotive field, it had neither car-making experience nor core technology, so it must have been "one-poor and two-white".

As for the electronic control mentioned by Muyang, the doubters said, don't brag about it, do it first.

Based on such stereotypes, the voices of doubts and speculations on the Internet are becoming more and more harsh. For example, is Xinghai Group making a car for Muyang to amuse himself?

Can Xinghai Group build a real car? Or a toy car?

Or get one or two concept cars, whether they can run, it is estimated that it is pushed by humans.

Or simply PPT to build a car, haha.

"A company that has never made a car, wants to build a car before the product comes out. It's a bit wishful thinking, and the propaganda is so loud, it's a bit grandstanding. Muyang is amazing, but if it's not that easy to build a car, I'm not interested in Xinghai. The group's car manufacturing is not optimistic at all."

"I'm also not optimistic about Xinghai Group's car-making, maybe one or two concept cars, but it can't be mass-produced. This is the case with many new-power car-making companies, and they finally blow it up."

"I'm also not optimistic about Xinghai Group's car manufacturing. Of course, if Boss Mu is rich, it's not a problem to lose hundreds of millions, just play it."

The best way to respond to doubts is naturally to speak with facts and let the rumors be self-defeating.

But for Muyang, he likes more skeptics, and it's boring to always support him and follow him!

He prefers to slap in the face,

Moreover, the more voices of doubt, the more intense the discussion of Xinghai Group's car manufacturing, and the better the publicity effect.

grandstanding?

Mu Yang felt that it was similar, as long as the publicity effect was achieved.

Only when the car is built, there are no doubts and no black fans, that is the key.

No matter how dark it is now, it does not affect the reputation of the car.

The car has not come out, it doesn't matter how dark it is, enough gimmicks have been created.

Let the voice of doubt come more fierce!

However, Mu Yang felt that it didn't matter, but many people cared about him.

The car partner, the chairman of Zheli Group, Li Shufu, called Mu Yang and asked, "Mr. Mu, do you really plan to build a car? Now there is a lot of publicity on the Internet."

"Haha, yes, it surprised you unexpectedly."

"It's a bit of a surprise. Are you planning to build a top model? Not an ordinary model, or a smoke bomb?"

"I didn't fool you. I really didn't plan to make ordinary models. Could it be that this will put you under pressure."

"If you Xinghai Group really entered the auto industry, maybe others would not believe it, but I believe you can do it. I have seen the fully automatic production line you developed and produced yourself, which is much more difficult than building a car. For you It's really not difficult to build a car. If it's a model below 200,000 yuan, we do have one more competitor, and of course I'm under pressure."

"Mr. Li, don't worry, I'm not interested in mid-to-low-end cars."

"Well, Mr. Mu does have the confidence. I'm looking forward to you making it. I'll buy one when the time comes."

"This is what you said My car is not cheap. I guess you are reluctant to spend money, but it is definitely worth having."

"Millions are nothing, do you want to sell tens of millions?"

"That's exactly what I meant. I didn't plan to sell it. Let's play it yourself. If you want it, I'll give you a toy car at the cost price."

"Tsk tsk, when you say that, I'm looking forward to it."

"Haha, it's not so fast to build a car, you have to wait a long time."

"It's okay, I can wait two or three years."

"Maybe, it won't take that long, you'd better prepare your pockets."

After Mu Yang and Li Shufu finished the phone call, many bosses called him to chat, and they also claimed to be willing to buy one if it was cheap.

Mu Yang reminded that the price of the car is not cheap, while promoting it.

There are also more than a dozen bosses who book cars verbally.

But there are only a few who have the strength to buy it. When the real car price is seen, it is estimated that some bosses will be scared off.

Mu Yang is right, it's definitely worth having, safety comes first, and the cars he builds cost very little to use and maintain, which is different from planes. Some bosses can afford planes, but they can't afford them.

He doesn't plan to buy any planes, and he doesn't plan to go abroad, just stay in the country honestly.
