Reborn: Billionaire in College

In the video age, information is spread much faster than in the text and image age.

This point is vividly experienced on Douyin, and even more vividly reflected in the launch of the new Jiuzhou S1 car.

Especially... with the help of algorithms.

Not to mention Tik Tok, even related entries on Weibo have dominated the charts.

It’s hard not to be popular.

The first batch of owners who got the cars showed off their videos and photos on Douyin, Weibo and even WeChat Moments, which was really enviable.

As a result, more and more people went to 4S stores to place orders!
It doesn’t matter if there is no 4S store in your local area, you can still shop online and have it delivered directly to your home!
In short... salespeople have the most tiring and hardest jobs, but they also make a lot of money.

…………

In the parking lot downstairs of NIO, a group of people gathered around the new Jiuzhou S1 car in front of them, looking left and right, or getting into the car to experience it.

Li Bin took a tape measure and measured everyone's size again and again, and then handed it to a special person to record it.

"Haha, I originally thought it would cost at least 100 million to buy it, but I didn't expect the other party to only offer 80. I guess they are short of money for turnover." The secretary said with a smile.

Li Bin patted the secretary's shoulder with satisfaction: "Well done, you helped us a lot."

Then he pointed to the executives on the scene and said: "The data is basically the same as the concept model that was previously leaked online. It is 5230mm long, 1999mm wide, 1800mm high, and has a wheelbase of 3110mm. The front suspension is McPherson, and the rear suspension is multi-link, which combines controllability and stability. In terms of appearance alone, we have to admit that it is a very good-looking car."

Someone beside him nodded and said, "We can get some non-core technologies and make them. Now the main ones are the smart cockpit including the voice system, the power system mainly based on three electrics, and the assisted driving system. It can be said that 180% of the selling points of Jiuzhou S are concentrated in these three areas. The other interior and exterior are just details!"

"I agree with Mr. Liang. We need to think long-term about how to overcome these technical challenges. We also need to consider whether to adopt pure electric or extended-range, and to what extent the functions can match the S1."

Li Bin: "I drove it this morning. To be honest, it is more advanced than the Model X from the inside out. The handling is similar, but the comfort is much better. It is really hard to imagine that Chen Pingjiang has made domestic cars to this level."

Lao Liang: "We still started too late, but it's good this way. With on-site homework, we can get on the road faster. And we can contact the supply chain of Jiuzhou S1 and let them supply us. In that case, we may not have to develop key technologies ourselves, and we can promote the pace of new car launch."

No one thought there was anything wrong with Lao Liang's words.

Can what writers do be called plagiarism? We call it learning and sharing.

Besides, the supply chain issue is not big news.

"I can contact them later. I don't know whether Jiuzhou has signed any exclusive agreement with them. But the hardware is easy to solve, but the software still needs to be developed by ourselves, especially the intelligent voice assistant and assisted driving system. If we can't do this when our new car is launched in the future, it will be difficult to compete with other brands." Li Bin said after thinking for a while.

Everyone has automatically ignored Kyushu S1 as an opponent.

This time, Wei, Xiao and Li both agreed to make the first model a sedan.

With the excellent performance of Jiuzhou S1, anyone who wants to make an SUV at this time would be like an old man eating arsenic.

The same thing happened to Ideal and Xiaopeng.

I am willing to spend a lot of money to buy Jiuzhou S1 everywhere.

These three companies all know that whoever can learn the master's skills will be the first to launch a new car, enter the Nasdaq earlier, and obtain more investment.

Thus surpassing the other two.

This is almost a matter of life and death, nothing is more important than this. What they have to do next is to dismantle the car part by part and learn the essence of other people's car manufacturing.

Chen Pingjiang knew very well about this kind of thing, but since he couldn't prevent it anyway, he simply didn't try to prevent it.

Hardware is basically purchased from all over the world, and anyone with money can buy it. But the software, especially the core technology involved, is a secret.

In fact, after several years, the hardware of new energy vehicles that everyone can come up with is basically the same. It’s just that the configuration is different due to the price.

By then, autonomous driving, safety and intelligence will be what everyone will compete on.

But in this area, Jiuzhou Automobile started very early, and with the support of Orange Technology and Pangu AI, it really welcomes all comers.

Others may take detours in the process of self-research, but Chen Pingjiang can use information asymmetry to prevent engineers from taking such detours.

This is much more powerful than just writing a few lines of code.

…………

"Mr. Chen, this car is really great!" Li Fu was delighted when he drove the new car for the first time. There were many high-tech features inside the car that he had never seen or even thought of before. He kept thinking, "I didn't know that a car could be like this."

"When I'm not around, you can run a few more laps to get familiar with it." Chen Pingjiang said with a smile: "But this is nothing. In a few years, when autonomous driving comes out, you will have it easy."

"Ah? Autonomous driving? You mean the car will drive itself?"

"Well, it can basically drive itself, but of course some complex environments and road conditions still require human intervention. But even autonomous driving requires someone to watch over it."

"Well, forget it. I'd better drive myself to avoid any problems. Besides, if I drive the car myself, I'll soon be unemployed." Li Fu felt a sense of crisis for the first time.

Chen Pingjiang's car is naturally not the original Jiuzhou S1 for sale.

Instead, it is customized and modified after leaving the factory, with great consideration given to safety and privacy.

There is only one of its kind in the world.

It is unacceptable that Chen Pingjiang does not support his own product.

In addition, he also equipped one for the old man in the family, Yan Yan and other people, but the delivery time still needs to wait.

Don't even say it...

Using the mobile phone I made myself and driving the car I made myself, the inner satisfaction and pride I feel are really indescribable.

It’s not a life lived in vain.

Chen Pingjiang obviously underestimated Chen Guangming's love for Jiuzhou S1, which reminded him of the old man's look when he first saw his Audi.

"I also watched the press conference yesterday, but I didn't understand a lot of the professional terms. I just knew it was very advanced and smart. Give me the car keys first, I'll turn around and experience it twice." After walking around twice, Chen Guangming sat directly in the driver's seat.

All I can say is that a man’s love for cars will never change no matter how old he is.

"Li Fu, take a rest first. I'll go sit in the passenger seat and introduce my dad to the car." After Chen Pingjiang took the key, he waved at Li Fu. (End of this chapter)
