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

Chapter 317 Chapter 192-193: Hillhouse Dolphin is about to be developed! (Two chapters in total)
The Hillhouse chip manufacturing plant is a very important but not urgent matter for Gao Huaijun.

However, we cannot delay taking action on such a matter.

Therefore, after Gao Huaijun took the time to make a start, he gave Ningyuan full authority over some of the execution matters needed to build the chip farm!
Although Ning Yuan is far inferior to Min Weiguo and others in terms of knowledge reserve and understanding of affairs, he is loyal!

And Ning Yuan also knew that apart from his loyalty, the current Gao Huaijun, even Gao Ling, would not think highly of him.

Therefore, whether it is the implementation and promotion of affairs, there are also follow-up matters that Gao Huaijun pays close attention to.

Ning Yuan is now actively advancing, acting as the white glove behind Gao Huaijun's shadow.

Gao Huaijun felt relieved when he left the matter to Ning Yuan. He responded to everything and settled everything.

Isn’t that what management is all about?
Employ people based on their strengths, not their weaknesses.

You can't be too fairy-like as a human being, and you can't want something all at once.

If a person can make good use of one of his strengths, he is considered a qualified manager.

Gao Huaijun looked at the unpainted steel beast in front of him, with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.

But although Gao Huaijun knew that this was nothing to be afraid of, he did not dare to neglect it.

However, the current achievements and the highly cost-effective model of Hillhouse Dolphin still make Gao Huaijun not afraid of the challenges of line-generation cars.

Because of the sales of Hillhouse vehicles, it has been suppressed by large foreign car manufacturers since its establishment five years ago.

What Gao Huaijun wants to do now is to attack with all his strength!

Although this is due to the fact that Hillhouse Vehicle has just been established, has a weak foundation and immature technology accumulation. In addition, foreign big brands have been established for decades. Foreign consumers highly recognize international big brand cars and have low-end domestic car brands. , there are certain reasons why the stereotype of poor quality exists.

Therefore, after handing over the majority of the Hillhouse chip manufacturing plant to Ningyuan, Gao Huaijun began to pay attention to the development of new new energy vehicles for line-generation automobiles, an unexpected event.

This is why the solidification of the fuel vehicle industry has been formed. Several major automobile giants have basically divided up the market. It can be said that it is deeply rooted. If other peers want to be at the forefront, they must find another way and start from other fields. Come and achieve overtaking in corners!
Not to mention that in 2013, even in later generations, neither BYA, nor the top three new forces, nor the cross-domain attack monsters like Wenjie were able to kill fuel vehicles and vehicles. In fact, they were still a kind of Evenly matched situation.

Therefore, a targeted offensive strategy should be implemented based on the actions made by line-generation cars.

That would be too difficult!

Therefore, Hillhouse is now truly at a golden opportunity for development.

With the asymmetrical forces of both sides concentrated together, Hillhouse can rely on its crushing advantage to attack with all its strength and accomplish its success in one battle!
He just wants the world's automobile giants to see what the mysterious Eastern power is!
At this moment, Hillhouse Vehicle's Hillhouse Dolphin car has reached the final stage of research and development. It will soon be ready for mass production and delivery to the Huaguo Automobile Testing Center for final testing of the vehicle.

It can even be said that their challenge made Gao Huaijun's aggressiveness explode in an instant!
For line-generation vehicles, this is a very mature fuel vehicle platform, although they have very mature and complete technologies on top of the three major components of fuel vehicles.

Because the automobile production field is a super large industry that needs to be deeply rooted in the industrial chain.

If at this time, the moat of Hillhouse vehicles cannot be built deep before the big brand manufacturers of fuel vehicles fully react and even move their R&D centers to China, then these big brands will not be able to build a deep moat in the future. If you want to turn around and deal with Hillhouse, the methods that Hillhouse can use will be extremely difficult!

Once a car brand company takes root in this field, and it takes decades, it will naturally create an authoritative, professional, and high-end brand image for consumers.

It can even be said that there is no power to fight back!

If everyone is rolling in the fuel vehicle track and developing cars of different styles and styles along the established track, and the cars of all grades are similar and there is not much difference, then Hillhouse Vehicles must become it and surpass it. , kill it, and completely defeat it in a place where it has worked hard for many years and has very rich professional barriers.

What he wants to do now is to pull out the main force like the Cheorwon Blockade and force the line generation to fight an asymmetrical war in an area that he is not familiar with.

Hillhouse's research and development, under his pressure, has now been practiced!

Such a company's R&D capabilities are not comparable to those of ordinary automobile companies.

"How is your testing going on the most critical autonomous vehicle technology, L1?" Gao Huaijun asked Ng Enda standing aside.

"Autonomous driving technology is, after all, a new thing that has not been developed in China, or even in the whole world. Although what we are doing now is just a beggar's version of a beggar's version, it can barely be considered an L1. But it’s not something ordinary companies can do,” Ng Enda replied honestly.

Gao Huaijun frowned. These Hillhouse dolphins need to be mass-produced. At this most critical moment, Hillhouse's artificial intelligence department is very weak!

"What's the main problem now?" Gao Huaijun asked.

"The core is still the adaptive cruise system!"

"The adaptive cruise system requires a lidar on the top of the car (in order to save costs, it is changed to a core lidar) to conduct real-time indiscriminate scanning of the vehicle ahead on the terrain, and this kind of scanning requires algorithm support."

"Now we have completed the algorithm foundation, but there are still big problems during the scanning process."

"That is, if the car in front is too dirty or the underground line is too blurry, there may be errors in judgment!"

"And this kind of judgment error is basically unsolvable when there are too few laser radars and the quality of photo cameras cannot be improved!"

Ng Enda scratched his head and said rather embarrassedly.

In the eyes of science and engineering straight men like them, one is one, and two is two.

If it works, it works. If it doesn't, it doesn't work.

Under Hillhouse's current conditions, if Hillhouse Dolphin crashes and kills people due to driverless driving, the blow to Hillhouse's vehicles will be fatal.

The Hillhouse Artificial Intelligence Department is naturally very concerned about such things.

Because they know Hillhouse cannot afford to gamble!

If such an accident occurs once, Hillhouse will probably recall the entire series of vehicles.

Then Hillhouse vehicles will be finished because of this!

Gao Huaijun felt a big stone fall in his heart at this moment!
He knows that the concerns of Hillhouse's artificial intelligence department will actually occur at both the L2 and L3 levels.

Today’s L1 is just a child’s play. As he said, "Don't worry too much!"

"Today's artificial intelligence is nothing more than pediatrics. Compared with the more mature L5, the current L1 is just an infant compared to a strong and powerful man."

"So, for the research and development of L1, you don't need to pursue perfection too much. This is unnecessary and unnecessary, because the delay in the entire research and development period is likely to cost tens of millions or even more due to delays in the artificial intelligence department. The loss of billions of dollars in research and development expenses.”

Thinking of this, Gao Huaijun couldn't help but feel a little heartbroken.

The current research and development of L1 has so far consumed more than million of Hillhouse's research and development funds!
Gao Huaijun also didn’t expect that Hillhouse’s artificial intelligence department would spend so much money!

You know, the Hillhouse Dolphin model is not expensive. He is not sure whether it can make back the money.

No wonder those large automobile companies have the attitude of simplifying and reducing the configuration of such products with high volume and low total price. It seems that they want to control the direct cost of this model to the lowest before giving up. .

If Hillhouse Dolphin uses L1, the production capacity will not be substantially improved compared to the high-level Dolphin Songlai, then a model like Hillhouse Dolphin will basically lose money!
It's funny to think that a popular product is likely to lose money.

"Ah... But such an immature product can easily cause losses to the market and the company after it is launched on the market!" After hearing this, Andrew Ng felt a little anxious and couldn't help but shout out.

"That won't happen!" Gao Huaijun raised his voice and continued, "Mr. Wang, when you and the artificial intelligence department are engaged in intelligent driving, you need to design a small function, that is, the driver cannot take his hands off the steering wheel! "

"You can't take your hands off the steering wheel?" All the executives on the side couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, wondering what Gao Huaijun meant.

"That's right! You can't take your hands off the steering wheel!"

"One very important point is that customers are very prone to fatigue when driving long distances, especially when driving on highways. The inertia of long distances can easily make people tired."

"The situation that Mr. Ng Enda mentioned just now can actually easily occur when driving on the highway."

"At this time, if something goes wrong, will the car be destroyed and everyone killed, and the whole family will have to eat?"

After Gao Huaijun finished speaking, he looked around at the bosses, and they all nodded involuntarily.

Indeed, most people will not use the L1 auxiliary system on unstable rural roads or towns, but will only try it out on highways or sparsely populated situations.

After all, no one would not regard his or her life as destiny!
"So, what do we need to do at this time?" Gao Huaijun looked at the group of bosses around him.

They all looked at each other at this time, not knowing how to answer Gao Huaijun.

The unmanned driving system is an absolutely new thing now. They have never heard of it, not to mention seeing it.

Under such circumstances, if you ask them to answer how to play, wouldn't that be making things difficult for them?

Gao Huaijun did not continue to embarrass them, but continued on his own, "Now, Director Iger, come and jointly develop a small program with the artificial intelligence department. What small program is it? That is how customers turn on the artificial intelligence assistance system. You can’t take your hands off the steering wheel!”

"Once the customer's hands leave the steering wheel for three seconds, it will be determined that the condition for use of the artificial intelligence assistance system is not met, and the driver will be forced to switch to manual driving."

"In this case, customers will avoid most of the problems that Mr. Wu just mentioned, such as unclear lines, misjudgments caused by dirty vehicles ahead, etc., and a series of problems."

"Doesn't it make sense to do it this way? And it avoids the core issue?"

Everyone present couldn't help but trembled after hearing this!
There must be hands on the steering wheel.

This thing sounds very confusing and unnecessary, but after listening carefully, I feel that this idea is very good!

If you take your hands off the steering wheel, it can be judged that you are driving dangerously.

Then I will forcefully strip off the driver assistance system and not take the blame!

Let’s see if you still dare to play around!

When the driver's attention begins to be highly concentrated, a series of potential problems that may exist can be eliminated silently.

This is a very important thing for Hillhouse.

This means that a lot of research and development expenses can be directly saved.

To all the executives present, the more you taste, the better it tastes.

Gao Huaijun's move seemed unnecessary, but it was more of an antelope-style flying fairy from heaven!

An inconspicuous trick like this is probably an accidental trick used by an ordinary automobile company inadvertently, but it is unexpectedly very consistent with the development trend of intelligent driving when the waves are rushing.

But this trick is the skill of thousands of engineers.

The executives present, even if they break their heads, may not know how to play next!

Therefore, they looked at Gao Huaijun as if they were looking at a god of management.

Boss Gao knows everything. He is really awesome.

After hearing this, Iger couldn't help but suddenly realized. He patted his head and said with a smile, "How come I didn't expect this move from Mr. Gao! It's really amazing! I'll go prepare it right away. If nothing else happens, I'll do it next time." In one month, our car can be sent to the China Automobile Commission for approval!”

Gao Huaijun couldn't help but feel overjoyed when he heard this!
Hillhouse Dolphin carries the core transformation of Hillhouse vehicle artificial intelligence driving from 0 to 1. It can even be said that this humble hatchback carries the process of a company transforming from a chrysalis into a butterfly.

The basic point of this process is the unmanned driving system L1!

And now, the product that carries Hillhouse Vehicles’ dream of becoming a world auto giant, Hillhouse Dolphin, is about to be launched!

How could this make Gao Huaijun not excited!
Although he was very excited, after Gao Huaijun reviewed the situation in his mind and sorted out the entire strategy, he suddenly realized it.

The listing of Hillhouse Dolphin is a good opportunity for Hillhouse to sound the charge.
