I asked you to save a bankrupt factory and you became the richest man in the world.

Chapter 181 Chapter 23-25: New car research and development, it is actually a B-class car! (three chapters in total)
Nowadays, Hillhouse Group’s development scale can be said to be expanding rapidly.

After Hillhouse Technology fully leased the original Huaguang Building, it was far from enough. It even rented two more office buildings next to it.

Lingxiao Technology does not show weakness either. Except for the Yinhui Skyscraper 360 Building where it is currently located, the original motor factory was changed into a vehicle testing center a month ago, while the original machinery factory was completely demolished and rebuilt. It is expected to be completed in 4 months. , became a new type of automobile production plant, called Lingxiao Second Factory.

After determining the most important branch base of Hillhouse Group in the future, Gao Huaijun and Leader Zhao had dinner together and rushed back to Xicheng overnight.

Early the next morning, he arrived at the Lingxiao Technology headquarters building.

"Yayan, please inform all the executives of Lingxiao Technology that we will have a meeting in the conference room in 10 minutes!" Gao Huaijun looked at the Vacheron Constantin in his hand and ordered.

"I already made an agreement with all the executives on our way here, and they are already waiting for us in the conference room." Shang Yayan looked at the small notebook in her hand and replied.

Gao Huaijun nodded.

It's now 09.

If an ordinary person has grown from a small electric fan factory on the verge of bankruptcy to its current level in five years, it is expected to become a high-tech group worth over 09 billion yuan in 100.

That can basically be said to be the chosen one.

But for Gao Huaijun, the information gaps he already had were getting smaller and smaller, which was not a pleasant thing.

So he needs to speed up the development of new products!
"I heard that President Gao went to Magic City to get a piece of land and prepare to build a new R&D base!"

"That's incredible! Why didn't any of our people get there?"

"Hey! Who said there is no such thing? Wang Fengying always followed us. There is no other way. As Hillhouse Technology's eldest son, he will definitely receive more advantages!"

"There is no way. Lingxiao Technology is a junior in front of Hillhouse Technology. It only has the 'Xia' model, and its sales volume cannot match it. There is no way."

As soon as they arrived at the conference room, the group of people started talking there.

In order to better develop Lingxiao Technology, Gao Huaijun separated the two teams and each took care of his own business.

Naturally, each family has its own calculations.

They were very excited that Gao Huaijun could come here today.

His existence represents resources, and the blessing of resources represents the development of Lingxiao Technology!
The Hillhouse technology sector has now become systematic. I heard that it is expected to be listed. How can they not be jealous?

If you have the conditions, who wants to be a salted fish with two broken coins?

"I haven't paid attention to Lingxiao Technology for a while. Mr. Wang, tell me how we completed our annual tasks last year?" Gao Huaijun took a sip of tea and asked slowly.

"Ahem! Let me tell you the specific situation!"

"So far, the 'Xia' model, including the number of offline orders, has sold 5 units. Within six months, we completed the sales task of 25 billion! It is 12 months away from the original target Within a natural month, we will sell 30 billion yuan, which is only 5 million yuan short. We should be able to successfully complete the original sales task and create a new high!"

"At the same time, the sales of Lingxiao's two-wheeled electric vehicles were pretty good in 2008. We have successfully completed the task of 5 two-wheeled electric vehicles assigned to us by President Gao. We actually sold 6 of these two-wheeled electric vehicles. Two-wheeled electric vehicles, sales reached 1.5 million!”

"Taking the two together, Lingxiao Technology's sales in 08 alone reached 22 billion! This is a very different and good start!"

Wang Fengying was well prepared, and she spoke calmly at the meeting.

Everyone present knew that the 'Xia' model was selling well, but they didn't expect the sales to be so good!

What Wang Fengying said.

First there was a moment of confusion.

However, the loss of consciousness was only for a moment.

In an instant, everyone's expressions turned enthusiastic, and they cheered and clapped.

They knew that Gao Huaijun was now preparing to reward him based on his merits.

A small amount of money was given out!

This is not a small sum of tens of thousands of dollars.

For these senior executives, Gao Huaijun will distribute bonuses of hundreds of thousands according to each person's merit if they complete annual major tasks.

This current result can definitely be regarded as a high starting point for Lingxiao Technology.

After all, 'Xia' is a hatchback, which is a little better than Laotoule.

The Lingxiao brand two-wheeled electric vehicle is nothing more than an experimental gadget that cannot be put on the market.

Gao Huaijun couldn't help but feel overjoyed after hearing what Wang Fengying said!
He had not paid much attention to Lingxiao Technology for so long, but Wang Fengying, a strong lady, had raised the airs of Lingxiao Technology.

This annual salary of one million is well spent!
After everyone calmed down, Gao Huaijun said, "Today we have a rare meeting together to announce something. We are going to develop Lingxiao Technology. The second car, Lingxiao Technology, will be the same as Hillhouse Technology. Form your own product ecological matrix!"

ecology?
matrix?

The second car!
The executives present were shocked after hearing this.

'Xia' has been in production for some time. R&D director Iger also provided some prototype designs, but Gao Huaijun was not particularly satisfied and felt that these products did not meet the basic requirements for a hit product in his mind.

So he has not yet made up his mind to build a new car.

Wang Fengying nodded aside and said curiously, "I wonder which types of cars you are more interested in? Ordinary compact cars? Or urban SUVs? Both of these products have good sales in the market!"

"With this new car, I don't plan to make a compact sedan or urban SUV. Now that Lingxiao Technology has entered the automotive field, I hope that the second car will be a high-end B-class car!" Gao Huaijun shook his head and said .

High-end B-class car!

The other executives present except Wang Fengying were shocked when they heard what Gao Huaijun said, with faces showing how this is possible!
Now in China, most local car companies are making civilian cars.

After all, civilian cars can still travel in volume.

In China's automobile field, these two price ranges are below 10 and between 10 and 20. These two price ranges add up to about 60% of sales!

Now Gao Huaijun wants to build a luxury car, what does that mean?
Do we, Lingxiao Technology, have this kind of technical accumulation?

Isn’t this difficulty a bit too high?
Do you want to be a leek if you have too much money?

Before these executives could think clearly, a design was immediately displayed on the big screen in the conference room.

【Chapter 24】

"The name I chose for a car like this is 'Han'. Anyone who offends me as a strong Han will be punished no matter how far away they are!" Gao Huaijun said with a firm tone.

When everyone saw the design drawing of this car for the first time, everyone present was shocked by the elegant and luxurious aura of this car's post-modernist style.

This is not a car, it is simply a luxury item!

This is the rough sketch that Gao Huaijun drew using BYD's 2020 'Han' as the design prototype.

Although it is still a design drawing, it has completely shocked everyone present.

This car has a very unique exterior design, full of modernity and technology.Its streamlined body and dynamic front face design are unforgettable.The body lines are smooth, running smoothly from the front to the rear, giving people a strong visual impact.

At the same time, compared with other Hyundai Europa car brands, its details are handled better. Whether it is the lights, air intakes, or body lines, they are all handled very delicately.Especially the design of the car lights, like a bolt of lightning, illuminates the entire car body, leaving a deep impression on people.

This car is a very classic for later generations. It adopts the design language of BYD dragon face. The front face has changed from the traditional "big mouth style" to a slender style that is more in line with Chinese aesthetics. The iconic "dragon beard" is still retained. , and we can see that the new car adopts a brand-new LOGO. The left half of the ancient "Han" character is taken from the seal script "Han" of the early Han Dynasty, and the right half of the design blends modern simplified Chinese characters with the seal script font of the early Han Dynasty.

This makes this car a perfect combination of science fiction and classics!
Gao Huaijun turned down page after page, and everyone unconsciously let out a "wow" sound.

"China's first prosperous 'Han', President Gao has great intentions for this car."

"Damn it! This car looks very luxurious! Nowadays, Fengtian, medium and large brand cars on the market are like garbage compared to the appearance of this car!"

"To be honest, putting aside everything else, I was attracted by the appearance of this car. With the income provided by our company, it should be easy to buy this car!"

“Really or not, this car is a bit too sci-fi and has the feel of a coupe, but the ancient Chinese characters in the logo bring us back again. It’s hard to imagine that a car can be designed with Chinese style! "

"Oh my god! I never thought that cars would be associated with high technology before, but after reading this thing, I really feel that everything related to technology in the world has the same goal. The stronger the thing, the more powerful it is. The better it looks! This is the so-called truth!"

Hey!
Gao Huaijun is really good at designing cars.

This car really looks perfect!
No matter what consumers think after seeing it, all the executives present had only one thought in their minds.

That is.

If they have the chance, they must buy such a car.

Driving on the road, it will definitely be very popular.

Simultaneously.

All the executives present were extremely shocked.

You said that the 'Xia' car is a test of the waters. Although it looks good, it is still reasonable.

However, 'Han' is far more stunning than 'Xia'!
Oh no!

This car can even be described as shocking with four seats.

Iger, who was sitting aside, took a deep breath and looked again at Gao Huaijun, who was sitting there quietly.

Generally speaking, foreigners who come to China are a little arrogant.

Egger has designed the Audi A8 and is the chief designer of Lamborghini.

He is a great guy himself.

There is even more arrogance at the level of a powerful person.

However, the shock he received today was far no less than that of other executives.

Unlike Wang Fengying and others, he is a designer and can fully understand and design a good-looking product.

Even if it’s a good-looking concept car.

How difficult it is!

There are hundreds of exterior designers working day and night for a year.

You may not be able to create a car that everyone thinks looks good.

The 'Wenjie M7' in Gao Huaijun's later generations is an example.

Many people agree that the high-tech performance of this car is very powerful, but they choose not to consider it because they think the car is too ugly.

If this car has the appearance level of BYD Tang, everyone will buy it.

In the Appearance section.All foreign car companies have their own classic car design language.

For example, Ford's design language is based on the three major design attributes of "clear, bright, and powerful."

Infiniti's unique design language, from the iconic LED eye-shaped headlights, double arched grille, to the crescent-shaped C-pillar and body contour curves, every gesture reflects Infiniti's unique aesthetics.

For Audi, each model uses simple lines and flat curved surfaces to reflect its sense of technology and sportiness. "Flatter and more dynamic" means flat and dynamic, which is the design language that Audi designers inject into Audi.

But what is the core design language of this model?
"Car design is very difficult, and it is even more difficult to build a car brand's family design features. Integrating oriental elements and Chinese elements into the car family design language is the most difficult."

"This car, the Egg, needs to be combined with local Chinese elements to outline the "Dragon Face" design language."

"Integrating this car and Chinese culture into traditional design shows the modern beauty of the East. Simple lines are outlined, and the free flow of light and shadow perfectly combines aesthetics and performance."

"I hope that these minimalist design elements will be linked with the Mate series phones in the future, so that the two products will not look different!"

Gao Huaijun saw Ige's hesitation and said lightly from the side.

To be honest, it makes him feel happy that a senior designer like Iger can feel the pressure.

Seeing the horrified and incredulous looks of everyone in the audience, Gao Huaijun smiled.

Then he used the control pen in his hand to switch the drawing from body design to interior design.

The interior design of 'Han' is also very outstanding, full of technology and modernity.

The design of the center console and instrument panel is simple and clear, making it easy to operate.

The seats are comfortable and the space is spacious, making people feel very comfortable just looking at it.

Such a product interior that is very different from conventional B-class cars is displayed in front of everyone.

【Chapter 25】

"This is..."

Zhang Sanyun, director of the interior design and R&D department, looked at such an interior and let out a cry of horror.

Having been engaged in interior design for more than ten years, he has never seen such an exquisite interior design.

The last car, 'Xia', was built to save costs.

Minimalism is extremely simple, but basically it’s so simple that it’s gone.

The interior of this 'Han' completely subverts his philosophy of constructing B-class car interiors!
This is simply a perfect combination of technology and modernity.

There are three main differences in the design of the interior of this car.

One is a wrap-around design.

Han's interior adopts an enveloping design, centered on the driver and passengers, creating a feeling of being embraced.This design can effectively reduce driving stress and make the driver more relaxed and comfortable.

This kind of design philosophy that implies human dynamics is rarely seen in arrogant foreign brands.

Most people only see: Reduce allocation, reduce allocation, reduce allocation!
The two are curves and surfaces.

Han's interior design uses a large number of curves and surface elements, such as the center console, seats and doors.The design of these curves and curved surfaces makes the entire interior space more fluid and soft, giving people a comfortable and warm feeling.

Three are material and color.

Han's interior materials and colors are also very sophisticated.A large number of soft leather coverings are used, such as seats, center consoles and doors, making the entire interior space more luxurious and comfortable.At the same time, Han also uses silver decorative strips and white cork solid wood decoration in terms of details, which enhances the class and quality of the entire interior.

Four are Chinese aesthetics.

Han's interior design also retains the unique charm of Chinese culture.For example, the audio speakers at the ends of both sides of the front panel show craftsmanship in every detail. The circular "ripple" shape from the caisson of an ancient palace not only highlights the beauty of sculpture, but also makes its functional performance more prominent, making the classical design with great charm Better demonstrated in modern applications.

Five have a strong sense of technology.

Han's interior design also incorporates a large number of technological elements.For example, the central control screen and the intelligent interactive D-type sports steering wheel all reflect Han's pursuit and innovation in technology.

This car is completely different from the 'Xia' that relies entirely on memory to piece together haphazardly.

'Han' is Gao Huaijun's favorite car that he used frequently for more than three years in his previous life, so he is very familiar with every detail of this car!
This is also the core reason why he wants to use the ID of Dynasty Series!
He knows a lot of details!
The details are unclear. Anyway, Lingxiao Technology has so much research and development, it will not have much impact.

Such a real and sci-fi interior amazed the executives below.

"This interior is so beautiful. Compared to my Maserati, it's really ugly. It looks like a product from the last century."

"That's right, my Porsche used to look pretty good, but compared to this B-class car, it's completely downgraded."

"Oh my God! This is actually a B-class car. It looks more luxurious than a luxury car. I can't imagine what it would be like if Lingxiao Technology built a luxury car."

"The perfect combination of technology and art is modern and luxurious without losing the unique charm of Chinese culture. How did Mr. Gao do it?"

"What kind of genius can design such a product?"

"This is simply a dimensionality reduction blow to other car companies!"

For a time, all kinds of sounds came from the entire conference room.

In this world, gasoline cars still dominate, and the configuration of all three major components is the core.

The mutual induction function between electronic technology and automobiles is still in a blank state.

Therefore, most manufacturers are still in a blank state when it comes to interior design.

I tinkered with the three major parts for another three years, making slight adjustments every year, and it was just another new car.

In the second-hand car market, they are all value-preservers.

Why should I take the thankless risk of building a new car that is completely untested by the market?

Those small Karamis in China can only make a living in the car market below 10 yuan.

Wouldn't it be nice to convert this money into cash and share it with your investors in the stock market?
The foreign securities market is not a big A that always has over-issuance of stocks. If you don't pay dividends, the stock will fall.

Now that the situation has been stabilized, I can freely distribute dividends!

A car!

Just open it!
What do you want with such a nice interior?
That's what luxury cars are for.

B-class cars and A-class cars are not worthy of each other!

Plastic bags would be just fine!
Just like a Hanguo car.

In 09, a weak country like China could only use low-end and reduced-spec cars!
However, the emergence of 'Han' subverted their understanding of cars.

At this time, the interior design appeared in front of them.

It’s so subversive of common sense!

"This car will be our second and most important car at Lingxiao Technology."

"B-class cars are known as the crown of the automobile industry, so we must win such a key market at all costs."

"If we win the B-class car market and the A-class car market, we will be able to capture it!"

"Now, all the data is in the drawings, and there are still some details that require you to do a lot of work."

"Director Egg, you can start operating immediately."

"I hope to see the preliminary overall drawings you have perfected within two months and the mass-produced prototype you have made in six months!"

After everyone gradually digested the information of this shocking drawing, Gao Huaijun handed the PPT control pen to Shang Yayan and spoke.

As the chief design engineer, Iger held the USB flash drive containing Gao Huaijun's PPT master file in his hand, which felt heavy.

He felt that although the USB flash drive was small, it was bigger than Wang Ganju's, oh no, his Egg's head!
Then he nodded solemnly and said, "Mr. Gao, I will definitely live up to expectations."

His burden is heavy enough!
In China, B-class cars easily cost more than 20, and the main products are between 23 and 27.

China's domestically produced cars, not to mention the main range, are difficult to produce even cars priced at 10-20 yuan.

Everyone present felt extremely stressed!

Seeing the 'Alexander' expressions on the others' faces, Gao Huaijun knew that he had to revise their thoughts.

"Everyone, what we are going to do now is not just an ordinary new car."

"It is also to change China's backward automobile industry!"

"I believe you are all full of fighting spirit, but your hearts are also full of worries!"

"No company in China can produce B-class cars!"

"Even if it is produced, it will not be easy to sell!"

"China did not even have an automobile industry before 1950."

"The basics are so backward!"

"And our Lingxiao Technology is even worse!"

"A company like ours that has only produced hatchbacks, how can you deserve it?"

"I tell you clearly and truly today that Chinese companies can produce high-end cars!"

"As long as I can stand, I can earn this money!"

"The miracles that I, Gao Huaijun, have achieved with Hillhouse Technology can also be achieved with Lingxiao Technology!"

"Let me ask everyone, do you have confidence?"

At the end of the sentence, Gao Huaijun said it loudly.

"Have confidence!"

"Have confidence!"

"Have confidence!"

At the end, all the executives stood up with excitement and shouted!

Hillhouse Technology will definitely win!
China will definitely win!
