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

Chapter 284 Chapter 127-128: Sir, times have really changed! (Two chapters in total)
Hillhouse Song, this A-class car, not only shocked people in the industry, but also stunned governments and capital markets everywhere!
Behind the 4.5-unit Hillhouse Song hot sale is a secret war between local governments.

Most people may not be able to say that, but most people think that the core relationship between politics and business is that business is dependent on politics.

For example, the red-top businessman Hu Xueyan is a typical representative.

Cong supported Wang Youling and helped him enter officialdom. Finally, you have the capital to open a bank. Later, when he met Zuo Zongtang, the governor of Liangjiang, Hu Xueyan's business career was smoothened by the help of officialdom.

Finally became the richest man in the Qing Dynasty!

But luck will not always come. Ten years will be east of Hedong and ten years will be west of Hexi.

Zuo Zongtang, the governor of Liangjiang, regained XJ and became a popular figure in front of Cixi. Hu Xueyan made a lot of money by helping Zuo Zongtang prepare military pay and supplies.

However, due to the dispute between Li and Zuo, Zuo Zongtang was already old, and he was arrogant.

Zuo Zongtang was at a disadvantage in the dispute between Li and Zuo. Hu Xueyan was Zuo Zongtang's wing, so he naturally became the target of attack.

Hu Xueyan's bank was his primary target. In the end, Li Hongzhang joined forces with foreign forces to force Hu Xueyan to auction the silk.

In the end, even the principal of the silk worth tens of millions was not recovered, so the capital turnover was poor, the bank ran a run, and the pawn was blocked.

However, in modern society.

With the great development of modern industry and the deepening of the science and technology tree.

This relationship has undergone certain changes.

Big capital has become a hot target of local governments!
The core reason is that in this era, more than ever, the government needs money.

Building a subway costs money.

Salaries require money.

Building highways costs money.

Building a park costs money.

Doing all kinds of industrialization also requires money!

There are so many places that need money.

This makes large companies that can stably contribute a tax base become a scarce resource.

When you sell a piece of land, it's a one-time deal. Once it's sold, it's gone. The most you can do is collect the deed tax and individual tax on the second-hand house!

However, a second-hand house is only traded once every ten years on average, so there is basically no profit to be squeezed out of it.

Therefore, these large companies that can contribute to the tax base every year are becoming more and more popular!
Many people think that the company Hillhouse has created several hot products, but it is just a short-term traffic, which is the so-called fast-moving meteor.

However, now that Hillhouse Nova and Hillhouse Song have come out, it can be said that they have shocked everyone!
"You've been a little busy recently! You're a busy man! You should be the guests of leaders from all over the country!" Tang Ying, who was sitting aside, looked at the man in front of her with a smile.

In the coffee shop, he had just made a phone call with a leader as if nothing had happened.

It felt like chatting with an old friend, but who would have thought that the person behind the phone was the leader of Southern Guangdong Province!

"The guests here can't talk about it. I can only say that Hillhouse is worth using now!" Gao Huaijun smiled calmly, and then took a sip of the coffee in the cup.

Some people say that people often forget their identity because of their position. Many times, they even forget themselves because they get carried away.

Gao Huaijun has now reached a position where he cannot hide himself.

Now, unless he goes to a place like the Demon City or the Imperial City, he basically needs to report in advance when he goes to any other place.

Otherwise, if something unexpected happens after you arrive, the local government will really not be able to handle it!

It is not easy for him to drink a cup of coffee with friends like ordinary people.

So he actually wanted to do something normal and calibrate his position.

"The utilization value of Hillhouse? It's not low! After Hillhouse Song went public, which car company is not discussing Hillhouse? Now the investors of Meili Guovolt Company want to meet you for a drink and a casual meal. Are you willing?" A strange color flashed in Tang Ying's eyes.

"Have a casual meal? This investor of Volt Company is not just a simple casual meal, right?" Gao Huaijun instantly understood Tang Ying's thoughts and said with a smile.

Volt's global sales last year were 186 million vehicles, down from 10 million vehicles in 191. Although the share is not large, life will not be easy in the future.

As global oil prices rise, sales of Volt's flagship product, pickup trucks, are becoming increasingly difficult.

What's even more difficult is that the Volt Company is threatened by the guild in North America. Its labor costs, including only the North American part, are more than 50% higher than those of Fengtian Automobile, which does not have a guild!

Those low-yield mud brothers and old white people gave Volt a solid shot.

Coupled with the gradual release of production capacity of the two major automobile companies, Fengtian Automobile and Xiandai Automobile, there is now less and less time left for Volt.

But now the emergence of Hillhouse has given them a glimmer of other possibilities.

Even if it's just a trace, they naturally need to be in good contact with each other.

"Volt cars are not as bad as imagined! Now the election of the beautiful country, the Rusty Four Continents (which actually refers to a geographical area in the central and western parts of the beautiful country, these areas are called because of the decline of traditional industries. (Referred to as the "Rust Belt.") Among these major swing states (Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin, and Michigan), Volt's influence is very powerful, and they are too big to fail. It is actually quite easy for them to turn around now." Tang Ying shrugged and said.

"Volt Company is an elephant! Turning around is not easy!" Gao Huaijun shook his head.

However, Tang Ying secretly said something, although it was not what Tang Ying said: "Volt enters the new energy track." If this thing comes true, it will really reshape the pattern of the automobile industry for a hundred years.

The automobile industry has begun a violent reshuffle. Although this is Europe's traditional advantage area, it has begun to be hit by the dimensionality reduction of the new energy automobile industry in China and the United States.

The strong stay strong!
The world's industrial production capacity will gradually gather in China.

Sir, times have really changed!

In such a big wave that was gradually starting, Gao Huaijun felt a trembling feeling all over his body!

That numbing feeling cannot be replaced by any emotion.

Who doesn’t want to impact a big era!

And the figures who dominate the history books and change the pattern of the times often only have one or two sentences.

But who wouldn’t want to be the star of that sentence or two?

In the previous era, Gao Huaijun could be said to be a complete outsider. As a worker, he could only quietly watch the exciting ups and downs of the big shots.

But at this time, Hillhouse, relying on Hillhouse Technology and Hillhouse Vehicles, finally became one of the players in the game!

Although, he is only a marginal character so far. 【Chapter 128】

In this era, the development ideas of the third technological revolution are becoming increasingly clear.

It is such a composite track of new energy + strong artificial intelligence.

The appearance of new energy is pure electric energy output, but in fact the ultimate goal should be nuclear fusion.

The huge amount of energy generated by nuclear fusion can even directly advance human society to a second-level civilization.

This thing is not comparable to primary energy sources such as hydropower and coal power.

And strong artificial intelligence will become an important starting point to change the course of the world, and even change the entire human civilization.

Now, Hillhouse has become an important representative of new energy with Hillhouse vehicles.

Moreover, although the artificial intelligence BU established now is not flashy, it has already produced several transitional products based on Gao Huaijun’s previous life experience, which will greatly increase its confidence in the future!

“The capital market’s attitude toward new energy has become clear! Now BYD’s shares listed in Freeport, with Hillhouse Song’s beautiful performance, have soared by 35% in more than a month! "

"Byadi Company never dreamed that its own company's stock would skyrocket due to the performance of other companies!"

Tang Ying looked at Gao Huaijun with complicated eyes and seemed to be murmuring.

When she heard the news, she couldn't accept it.

Not to mention Wang Chuanfu!

Now, it's not just the boss of Morgan Stanley's Asia-Pacific headquarters who is hinting to her, either explicitly or implicitly, hoping that she can get acquainted with Gao Huaijun, the boss of Hillhouse.

Even the directors of Morgan Stanley's board of directors met with her in person when they came to inspect the branch in China!

As an ordinary associate and investment banker, how could she be qualified to meet with the directors of Morgan Stanley's board of directors in person?

Isn't this relying on Gao Huaijun's 'favor'?

"The development of new energy is not as simple as imagined, and there are still twists and turns. The core point is that the old money in Europe will be entangled. There are also high-quality fuel vehicle companies such as Line Generation and Fengtian. They have not been able to transform. So easy." Gao Huaijun replied after thinking for a moment.

The battery, electronic control, and motor industry chains are being reshaped with the hot sales of Hillhouse Song!
Obviously, Hillhouse, a new force in new energy vehicles, has also discovered the beauty of holding core components in its own hands. If this trend develops, in a few years, the companies that will survive the new force in new energy vehicles will not only be Hillhouse. .

These companies, such as BYD, Changan, Geely, etc., have mature products. Once these industrial chains mature, they can be exported and have a say in new energy vehicles.

But now Volt has seen the value of this industry chain and hopes to actively integrate into it.

Now, if Hillhouse Vehicles can give up some of its profits, it can start from the North American market and then return to the world.

"Are you going to embark on the path of external expansion?" Tang Ying suddenly opened her eyes and looked at Gao Huaijun, as if she didn't recognize him.

Only defending domestically, Gao Huaijun couldn't say what he just said!

Hillhouse is just a company that has been established for five years!

No matter where he is, he is a little brother-level existence.

Gao Huaijun, how dare he?
"Sooner or later we have to expand externally! It's just that now it's just an appetizer, not the real main course, and it's not yet ready to be served." Gao Huaijun's face changed a little, and he replied with a smile.

Many of Hillhouse’s current actions are actually good news!

To put it simply, after we have the core components in hand and have competitive products, we will build factories overseas in the future, just like the joint venture factories that appeared in China in the era of fuel vehicles.

The essential parts are in the hands of Chinese car companies, and foreign countries are responsible for the assembly.

To put it simply, it is the same as the BYD Company of Gao Huaijun’s later generations.

Whether it is the Uzi branch or the Taiguo branch, they purchase parts directly from China and only assemble them locally.

The standardization carried out by Hillhouse now is actually just to move in this direction.

Thirty years to Hedong, thirty years to Hexi!
The world is changing really fast!
Hillhouse is really going to skin Europe this time. Once the high-end part of the manufacturing industry is robbed, there will be fewer high-end jobs. People talk all day long on the Internet that Europe is not involved, and the Germans can live comfortably without going to university. So it is talked about from time to time, actually because there are only more than 8000 million people in Germany.

There are many high-end manufacturing jobs, and when the demand for jobs exceeds the number of talents or is equal, you can still get a well-paying job even if you don't work hard.

Although it is not enough to grab these high-end positions to fill the gap between teeth, it is better than nothing.

This was also the case in the past when the island country was in its heyday after 1990. A university graduate was scrambled by several well-known companies.

It is because the industry has become stronger that young people have opportunities. Otherwise, even if you write a paper that is popular, it will not work.

Now, whether we are engaged in Hillhouse Technology or Hillhouse Vehicles, they are actually serving this direction!
And the core point of all this is actually foreshadowing.

Now that Hillhouse is at the critical stage of listing, this so-called concept needs to be hyped up!
Regarding IPO, Gao Huaijun actually has his own set of corresponding rhythms.

At this stage, the number of users, product influence, and sales data of Hillhouse are all stable or even growing explosively.

No matter which angle a company is evaluated from, it actually has nothing to do with the lack of money that affects development.

However, the fundamental reason for listing is that it is already around 2013.

In this world, because of the emergence of Gao Huaijun, the development of the world is slightly ahead of schedule compared to the previous life.

The advantage of poor information will become weaker and weaker in the future.

Sacrificing part of the equity in exchange for the full release of the information gap, Gao Huaijun feels that this is a good deal!

"When is Hillhouse planning to go public now?" Tang Ying suddenly asked.

Gao Huaijun glanced at Tang Ying with a half-smile, "What? You want to coordinate the IPO of Hillhouse Technology? How about I take the lead and pilot it for you?"

"You want to die, don't you?" Tang Ying suddenly interrupted him and gave him a wink.

With the listing of Hillhouse Technology, the Eight Immortals are now crossing the sea to show their magical powers.

If this was a company with annual sales of only tens of millions, maybe Morgan Stanley would give her a chance to try it out, but a company with high potential like Hillhouse Technology.

It's simply impossible!
Now let’s not talk about the popular Hillhouse Song. Whether it is Hillhouse Nova or the mate series, there are many stories to tell.

Not to mention other products of Hillhouse Matrix, such as matepad, Hillhouse smart screen and other Hillhouse ecosystem.
