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

Chapter 241 Chapter 031-033: The influence of ‘Ming’! (three chapters in total)

Although she still feels a little dreamy, even like she is in a hallucination.

But she truly felt that Hillhouse, like a dragon lurking in the abyss, was going to cross the border and give the automobile industry a deep blow, and it could even be said to be subversion!

She jumped to Hillhouse from Changchun.

In the beginning, it was indeed because Gao Huaijun could give her a higher degree of freedom, room for performance, and a salary that was enough to give her financial freedom.

But now she simply feels that she wants to know how far this company can go!

Hillhouse spans a large dimension from electronic technology to the automobile manufacturing industry. It can be said that the two are unrelated and have no relationship at all.

Hillhouse Technology empowers Hillhouse vehicles beyond just placing orders.

There are also all-round improvements and stabilization from quality control to technology.

The core thing is the establishment of values.

In Wang Fengying's own words, just like long-range automobiles, many companies in the traditional automobile industry, even major foreign automobile companies, are not aware of it.

It is terrifying how much power Hillhouse has hidden under the water.

It can be said that as long as this company is given enough room for development, most companies will have no way to resist it.

In terms of competition and even concepts, it can be said to be a dimensionality reduction attack.

Crush ordinary existence.

Among the more than ten indicators of cutting-edge automobile manufacturing, Hillhouse vehicles have actually slowly transformed from the ultimate pursuit of power indicators to an intelligent driving experience.

Although the degree of this intelligence is still very shallow, the foundation is not deep.

But it has already recognized the importance of this and begun to put it into practice.

Intelligent driving happens to be the shortcoming of the traditional automobile industry.

If you ask Chang Cheng Lao Wei, a mantra of TMD, RNN, a private entrepreneur who has not graduated from a technical secondary school, to realize the importance of this thing, it is tantamount to talking about it!

In Hillhouse's view, the gimmicks of other companies engaging in intelligent automobiles are just children's play, not worth mentioning, and a pure waste of time.

Hidden behind this company alone are dozens of doctoral graduates from Hillhouse Artificial Intelligence BU, which is not something that ordinary companies have the courage to do.

That thing is really, really, really expensive!

This is especially true abroad.

Now China's domestic automobile companies are still consciously aware of the impact the rise of Hillhouse Vehicles will have on China's automobile industry.

And began to consciously imitate Hillhouse's vehicles of all levels in all aspects.

To put it bluntly, the automobile industry has begun to involute a few years earlier than in Gao Huaijun's previous life. However, this involution is not as exaggerated as the later generations with small facelifts once a year and iterations once every three years.

However, foreign automobile companies completely look down on the competitive pressure of Hillhouse Vehicles, a small potato from the south!

I think Hillhouse is just a company that makes a few mobile phone icons and makes the casing more beautiful.

As for the internal stuff, it is completely uncompetitive!

Wang Fengying was chatting with a few friends some time ago. Several of her friends also said that the Chinese executives of Fengtian Automobile are still belittling Hillhouse, saying that Hillhouse's so-called new energy vehicles have no technology at all!

And he won't take that back!

It shows how backward the concepts of this group of people are!

Weakness and ignorance are not obstacles to survival, arrogance is!

One can imagine how arrogant such a group of people are!

Wang Fengying is already deeply aware of Hillhouse's experimental model "Ming".

In the future, cars will become smart travel devices.

Automobile companies must realize that automakers are no longer a giant platform, but a provider of equipment to survive.

Hillhouse is likely to spin off its smart manufacturing factories in the future.

Smart manufacturing factories will be responsible for travel, and Hillhouse will be responsible for intelligence.

This concept is the core moat of an automobile company!

As for equipment, vehicle equipment is only a small part of smart travel.

It is not at the top of the tier 0 pyramid!

The company's development speed in vehicle manufacturing has been far faster than she imagined.

She has begun to believe what Gao Huaijun joked with her when she first started in the industry.

That is - in any industry, the one who defeats the traditional overlord is never its peers!

For example, Hillhouse is currently recruiting people at its assembly factory in Xicheng, and the salary is 2000 yuan per month upon entry. If they are willing to work overtime, there are many people who can get to yuan.

If you can make progress and become a small supervisor, you can even get five to six thousand yuan.

For ordinary people in the city of Xicheng, in this era, it is already a very happy thing.

In fact, many people cannot find good jobs. Behind a factory with tens of thousands of people is the well-being of tens of thousands of families.

Most of this group of people came to Xicheng from Hui'an Province or northern Jiangsu, with the purpose of living a better life.

Hillhouse gave them these things!

Not talking about the feelings of family and country, not talking about China's industrial upgrading, but just talking about the people's livelihood issues happening around them, these people should be grateful to Hillhouse, this emerging company!

While Wang Fengying was distracted, Gao Huaijun had already read all the contents of the plan.

He nodded with satisfaction.

"What is the total sales volume of more than 800 units of 'Ming'?" Gao Huaijun asked Zhou Zhou, who was standing aside.

"The result we calculated is almost 9 million!"

"But fortunately, most customers don't choose the basic model, they basically have add-ons!"

Zhou Zhou, who was standing aside, said, but he added, "In other words, if we can complete the sales volume of 2000 units this year, we can make back the research and development costs we invested within three years!"

He was also sighing in his heart.

Being able to recoup the research and development expenses within three years is definitely beyond expectations, and this car is not as bad as he expected!

In the world, all the top luxury models are basically money-losing products.

There is no other reason.

The sales volume of top luxury models is too small, and the market is too niche.

Cars are the art of industrial mass production. Without quantification, the cost will be ridiculously high, and they can only be built by hand.

If it were made by hand, the cost would be extremely high.

If it weren't for Hillhouse's factories, where workers' wages are much lower than those of foreign investors, this model would have suffered significant losses.

If a few hundred units are sold within a year, then the research and development of this car is destined to suffer losses.

However, this car is originally a money-losing product, and it is for brand adjustment. It is very good to be able to achieve this level.

"Luxury car sales must be sold all over the world and the costs are shared to have a chance to make a profit! Although the Chinese market is already good, it is still very small compared to the global market, so it is still a success to achieve this result. Not bad." Iger added from the side.

【Chapter 32】

"Building a foreign sales network is not such an easy task. The core reason is that foreign countries need to build our own overseas factories! When we are not strong enough, this kind of heavy-asset establishment is full of uncertainty. Sexual.”

Zhou Zhou on the side explained further.

"I will not consider such an option for overseas manufacturing bases for the time being. Now Hillhouse Vehicles cannot reach the top 10 in China. The so-called overseas strategy has no meaning. It will only waste Hillhouse Vehicles' energy to build pipelines. Not cost-effective!" Gao Huaijun shook his head and directly denied it.

Now this is what Iger said.

It's not aimless.

The core is to explore Gao Huaijun's background and see if he can accelerate the establishment of a major overseas channel for Hillhouse's products!

However, Gao Huaijun had doubts.

Because after leaving the familiar big market of China, we have to re-familiarize ourselves with foreign game rules. In fact, it is not that simple.

It costs money, time, and energy.

I am not even considered to be the strongest group in China. If I force myself to get on board in a foreign country, I am very likely to become Xiaomi's second.

It’s too late to cry by then!

"However, although we cannot take the initiative to go abroad now, it does not prevent foreign parallel car importers from selling our cars! As long as foreign companies can use their sales channels to sell our products, they must first establish a certain reputation in the external market!" Gao Huaijun After thinking about it, he warned Ning Yuan who was standing aside.

Ning Yuan nodded aside.

He understood what Gao Huaijun meant.

Whether it is Hillhouse Technology or Hillhouse Vehicles, they actually do not have the capital to expand significantly abroad.

Eat as much food as you have the ability to do.

When I took a big step, there was a clicking sound, and I pulled the egg!

Zhou Zhou on the side is also full of joy!

He has long wanted to contact foreign markets, especially the parallel import and export markets!

Now some foreign-funded channel dealers have learned about Hillhouse’s products through some domestic channels.

There are not as many foreign consumers as there are in China, and the focus on foreign brands is mainly based on product strength.

Although purely exported products will lead to a substantial increase in sales price, for example, a Han product worth over 20 yuan is likely to be sold for 40 or even 60 yuan, greatly weakening the competitiveness of the product.

But three melons and two dates are also good, and they will taste very delicious!

After all, this is a purely incremental market.

"When contacted, the North American market gave up directly. We don't need to be involved with the North American market, and we can't enter! The focus is on the Southeast Asian market and the European market. The price we give them can be as favorable as possible! Let's do this , for all parallel imported cars, we can give them the price of A-level channel dealers! At the same time, in terms of customs clearance, we must also set up a special department to deal with it, and don't be a hands-off shopkeeper!" Gao Huaijun finally added.

Everyone present could not help but look shocked when they heard Gao Huaijun tell the prices of A-level distributors. You must know that there are basically only 1-2 A-level distributors in each province, or even none at all!

This support is very strong!

But then they felt relieved.

Hillhouse's overseas channels are now almost zero. Even if it starts to be established now, it will not be very effective in the next few years. Therefore, it doesn't matter if you give an A-level channel dealer a price. Just treat it as a local channel dealer to help. Channels are established.

"Okay!" All the executives present nodded.

"One more thing is that the leader of Xicheng wants to meet with you to see if he can build a large Hillhouse industrial park in Xicheng." Having said this, Ning Yuan couldn't help but smile.

The leaders of Xicheng want Hillhouse to expand its investment in Xicheng, not just once or twice.

This time after the blooming of 'Ming', this was particularly explicit.

In the past, Hillhouse basically took the initiative to meet with Xicheng leaders, but now it's the other way around.

Hillhouse has become the No. 1 large enterprise in Xicheng in the true sense. Even the leaders of Xicheng have taken the initiative to ask to see him!

"I have been quite busy recently. Just tell the leader of Xicheng that I have been on a business trip and have not come back. When it is convenient for me, I will visit the leader of Xicheng." Gao Huaijun thought for a moment and said to Ning Yuan .

Now he is a little afraid of the leader of Xicheng.

They are so enthusiastic!

However, Gao Huaijun has not yet thought about Hillhouse's future development, so he has not yet figured out how to communicate with the leaders of Xicheng.

So it's better to avoid it now.

Later, several senior executives also took the opportunity to report several urgent tasks to Gao Huaijun. After receiving Gao Huaijun's instructions, they left Gao Huaijun's office.

. . . . . .

"What? Hillhouse Vehicles' tomorrow's sales volume has reached 800 units! Is this news confirmed? TMD, how is this possible!" Old Wei's face no longer had the original leisurely look, and he shouted.

Let’s talk about the company he dislikes most about Hua Guo.

Hillhouse vehicles ranked second, and none of them ranked first.

From the time Wang Fengying was poached to Qin directly riding on Harvard's face to focus on output, he always felt that Hillhouse's actions were all aimed at him.

We are all Chinese enterprises. Can you have some business ethics and business bottom line?

Now that I heard that the sales volume of this car called Ming actually exceeded 800 units, which is in the same level as luxury cars like Ferrari and Lamborghini, I couldn't help but feel inexplicable anger.

"This news is indeed true. We also got the news from their internal sources. They will announce it in the next two days!" the long-distance sales director standing aside replied with a wry smile.

In fact, he was not as angry as Lao Wei.

In this world, those who are jealous are often those whose level is one level higher than you. But when his level is as high as the sky, all that is left at this time is deep envy.

Now Hillhouse Vehicles, as a shining star in China, has received a lot of attention.

The employees inside have naturally become the targets of major automobile companies.

【Chapter 33】

Supervisors are promoted to managers, managers are promoted to directors, these are all basic operations, and some people leave their jobs and become Hillhouse's supply partners.

Basically, those who can go to Hillhouse and step into a higher social class are a sure thing.

So he himself really wanted to go to Hillhouse, even if he had to go down a level!

Otherwise, this company is really great!

"Lao Li, do you think we have a chance to build a sports car?" After snorting, Lao Wei turned to ask Li Lai, the long-range R&D director standing aside.

"Mr. Wei, be careful!"

"It takes thousands of R&D personnel to develop a sports car!"

"Even if the cost per person is 5 yuan, it still costs 5000 million yuan!"

"The key is that once this car is developed, it will be difficult to compete with big brands like Ferrari and Lamborghini."

Li Lai smiled bitterly and rejected it directly.

Although the company is owned by Lao Wei, developing a sports car requires at least tens of millions of funds.

In addition, this kind of car cannot be put into large-scale production lines, and the production cost is extremely high. When the research and development funds are squandered, how can he upgrade his beloved Haval series?

Long-term R&D funding is already tight enough!

He has to save some flowers!

"It's not that complicated. Just copy a better-looking shape and match it with our three classic parts. Just change the shell. Use your brain! You are all top students who graduated from prestigious universities. These things are all Do you need me to say something? Just change Haval!" Lao Wei said to Li Lai very dissatisfied.

"Mr. Wei, Haval and sports cars are two completely different types of cars. Sports cars have particularly high requirements for power output, which also has particularly high requirements for the three major parts of the car. This is not something that can be solved by modifying Haval. ." Li Lai persuaded softly from the side with a wry smile.

Sometimes you may find it ridiculous, but this situation is real and often happens in the long run.

The whims of the boss and the hard work of the employees below have always been the main theme of this internally strenuous company. This trend reached its peak until the arrival of Wei Jiangnu in later generations, such as Wei brand, latte, mocha, big dog, etc. Forgive me that green and the like have come out, but this is really not something that an ordinary person can imagine.

For this company’s Russian project, the employees in Russia had a hot pot together and were notified and punished for not having an AA system. It is hard to imagine that this kind of thing would happen in a normal company.

Most of China's private enterprises are like this, one is more stretched than the other.

It's not as fast and direct as Gao Huaijun's correct guidance.

There is no way. The upper and lower limits of a company's development depend on the vision and insight of the boss. This thing cannot be taught.

"That's all, let's do this for now! Tomorrow I will personally listen to the research and development summary report of the new Haval H5 product." Old Wei's eyes were as cold as ice cubes, and he left directly after saying a few words.

. . . . . .

Hillhouse's "Ming" product not only caused shock in the industry, but also caused deep shock in the eyes of the people who eat melons.

When the initial news about Hillhouse sports car development was leaked.

Most people feel that the person in charge of Hillhouse is really out of his mind. How can a company that has only been established for a few years develop a sports car?

Even if you want to improve the brand value, you have to wait at least ten years until Hillhouse's sales reach a certain level before you can implement it!

However, the production of this product by Hillhouse can be said to have deeply slapped most people in the face, and also shocked the people who support the famous industry!

When Hillhouse Vehicles announced, the sales volume of Hillhouse’s ‘Ming’ model in the first month actually exceeded 853 units.

This news immediately ranked ninth on Weibo’s hot search list!

A car has been on the hot search list four times in a row, which is not unprecedented, but it can definitely be said to be unprecedented!

This actually shows how important the sports car, the crown of the automobile industry, is in the hearts of the masses!

A large car company that cannot even produce large sports cars can only be regarded as a second-rate car company!

After this message received 100 million clicks and 13 retweets, it also received 2 comments.

[I firmly believe that the products Hillhouse is involved in must be the first-class products in the world! 】

[What is a sports car? Small case! What I am fighting is the elite! 】

【Only play high-end games! 】

[This car costs 100 million, which is not expensive at all. . . Nice car. . . 】

However, there is no shortage of trolls in this world, especially Hillhouse’s PDST trolls.

[I will buy a Ferrari at this price. Isn’t a Lamborghini bad? You will only buy a domestically produced car if your brain is in trouble! 】

[Any car company in the world that dares not claim to be a top sports car company, such as Ferrari, Lamborghini, and Rolls-Royce, can build an electric car in 3 seconds in a week at most if it is willing. On the other hand, let me see if all the domestic car companies' technologies can be combined to build a fuel vehicle within 5 seconds. 】

However, someone soon fought back.

This is China's first million-level supercar!

[What you bought upstairs is a car badge, but what others are buying is a real car! 】

[What you said above is very simple. If these companies turn to new energy, even if they can make a car that accelerates in one second. Do you know what this means? It means that the advantages he has accumulated over the past century are gone! Even if the electric cars made by these companies accelerate in just one second, domestic cars need 3+ seconds. That's only a little more than two seconds away. But if you switch to a fuel vehicle, the gap between domestically produced vehicles will be thousands of miles. This kind of change is something traditional companies like them don’t want to see at all! 】

[Those who can afford it won’t talk, those who can’t afford it will only yell! 】

[You who haven’t figured out how to ride a two-wheeled electric vehicle upstairs are also at your highlight moment! 】

[I’ve been confused recently. My monthly salary is less than 2000 yuan, but I’m actually starting to look at cars worth 100 million yuan. 】

[There is no need to feel inferior upstairs, you are the future car owner! 】

[I like to hear this. You are also the future owner of more than one million cars! 】

[This car is currently the ceiling of domestically produced cars. Thinking about it makes me excited, and I feel like I am witnessing history! 】

[When I saw this car, I felt that Huaguo Automobile was really at an opportunity to rise. My mother asked me why I was kneeling to read the news! 】

[It’s over, it’s over, I feel like I have to work hard to make money. If I don’t work hard, I will probably only be able to buy a car from BBA (dog head) in the future. 】

【Fuck! Maybe the future is real! The news about ‘Ming’ during this period made me feel so excited that I really knelt down! 】

【Witness history, suddenly witness history! 】

[In the words of our magic city, Hillhouse, you are the model! 】
