After divorce, I can hear the voice of the future

Chapter 690 Did you think I ate grass?
Meanwhile, the press conference continued.

Taylor looked delighted, like a little fangirl. Even though she was wearing high heels, she still ran forward and enthusiastically opened the car door for Lu Liang.

She stomped her feet excitedly, her eyes narrowing into crescent moons: "Lu, I never expected you to make your appearance like this."

Actually, she saw Lu Liang last night and wanted to say hello, but one was rehearsing and the other was familiarizing himself with the process, so they didn't see each other and left separately.

"Miss Taylor, you're still wearing high heels. Watch your step, don't trip." Lu Liang shivered, suddenly feeling tens of thousands of murderous gazes.

"Then you can just support me."

Taylor smiled and extended her hand. At 1.8 meters tall, she was wearing high heels and was a head taller than Lu Liang, who was 181 meters tall.

"It is my honor."

Lu Liang smiled bitterly and could only accept the palm, but he felt that the tens of thousands of killing rays of light had become even more fierce.

Flannery was also completely bewildered, and could only smile and try to smooth things over: "Miss Taylor, you really like Mr. Lu?"

His intention was to remind Taylor that with so many people watching and it being a live broadcast, they should tone it down and not overdo it, lest they embarrass Lu Liang and they would all suffer the consequences.

Taylor seemed oblivious to the implied meaning, nodding excitedly like a chicken pecking at rice: "I've been following Mr. Lu for years, he's really amazing."

She does indeed support the Democratic Party, which is mainly backed by financial capital aristocrats represented by Wall Street.

But her support doesn't mean she likes the party; it just means she's been tightly bound to it since childhood.

However, in recent years, Lu Liang has risen to prominence, repeatedly humiliating Wall Street's financial elites and giving the Kuomintang bigwigs headaches. This has given her a sense of satisfaction in revenge, and naturally, she has developed a strong interest in Lu Liang because of her affection for him.

"Miss Taylor, your praise makes me a little embarrassed."

Lu Liang smiled, but didn't forget his mission. He patted the car body and asked, "Do you like this 'Sunset Purple' color?"

Taylor opened her big, innocent eyes, like a pure young girl. Seeing is believing, and Lu Liang seemed quite interesting. He was completely different from the person she had heard about.

She smiled and asked, "Can I drive it around?"

“Of course.” Lu Liang nodded.

Taylor then said in a coquettish tone, "Lu, this is my first time driving a tram, I don't have much experience. Could you help me with some instructions?"

A legendary man renowned on Wall Street was repeatedly defeated by her, and she seemed to have fallen in love with the feeling.

"no problem."

The two then acted as if they were going over a script.

As Lu Liang explained the functions to Taylor, all the configurations and parameters appeared on the large screen.

Owners of the Tian Shu car, or prospective owners, who stayed up all night in China, breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the almost identical configuration of the domestic version.

They weren't treated differently; now they're just waiting for the final price to be announced. If the price exceeds $4.3 (30 RMB), they'll be completely satisfied.

The higher the price, the better.

After all, comparison is what gives people a sense of superiority, and they don't care whether it's due to tariffs or not.

"Mr. Lu, I haven't driven by myself in a long time. You really trust my driving skills that much?"

Taylor sat in the driver's seat, stroking the steering wheel, and suddenly looked at Lu Liang, winking playfully like a female pervert who always wanted to tease him.

"If even the beautiful Miss Taylor cannot be trusted, then who in the world can be trusted?"

Lu Liang narrowed his eyes. In the past, he was the one who flirted with girls; he had never been flirted with by a girl before.

Outside the car, on the stage, countless eyes and cameras were watching.

However, inside the car, there are only three cameras, all of which are pointed at their upper bodies and the center console.

If Lu Liang doesn't take some countermeasures, people will really think he's a pushover. One hand quietly landed on Taylor's thigh and gradually got to know him better.

Thongs!
No hair?

Taylor was taken aback, not expecting Lu Liang to be so bold. He instinctively resisted, but forgot that his foot was still on the accelerator.

Screams suddenly erupted inside the venue.

The purple radiance of the celestial pivot, like an arrow released from a bow, suddenly shot out with a whoosh.

In an instant, the speedometer on the center console soared to 80, about to break 100, and the car was about to fly off the stage.

Just as people were wide-eyed, thinking that the worst live broadcast accident in history was about to happen.

A red exclamation mark flashed rapidly on the center console, and the vehicle suddenly braked, stopping the front wheels steadily just 30 centimeters from the edge of the stage.

In that instant, everyone broke out in a cold sweat, even Lu Liang in the passenger seat felt his back get a little wet.

He withdrew his hand and chuckled dryly, "I didn't expect Miss Taylor to have so much confidence in our driver assistance features."

Taylor's eyes widened, still shaken, but her years in the entertainment industry allowed her to react immediately.

With a sweet smile on her face, she spoke into the microphone, "Sorry to have worried everyone. I just wanted to test the Tianxing's driver assistance features. Actually, I had one foot on the brake the whole time, and it turns out that the Tianxing's driver assistance is indeed very impressive." A deafening cheer erupted in the hall. Their Taylor Swift was so brave; no wonder she was the girl they admired.

"Tch, a bunch of ignorant foreigners who've never seen the world. Tianxing's emergency braking function has been tested to death on TikTok."

"It still requires millimeter-scale ultrasonic sensors, LiDAR, and vision technology. Tesla is far from being able to compete with the three-in-one solution just by relying on vision technology."

"Stop praising one and belittling the other. Vision technology is definitely the most advanced technology. What's so difficult about adding millimeter ultrasonic and LiDAR? Tesla just doesn't want to, not that it can't do the three-in-one."

"It's too simple. The gear shift has already been simplified. You'll be happy when they simplify the mechanical brakes and airbags as well."

"I really can't have a conversation with you little pinks, but please remember one thing: the role of technology should be to simplify, not complicate."

"Another brainwashed idiot. Space rockets are awesome, right? They're high-value, right? But they still need a mechanical button. Relying solely on electronics is like handing your life over to someone else. Does Tesla dare to guarantee that if there's an accident involving AI-powered vehicles, they'll be fully responsible? If they don't dare, they should shut up."

What should have been a good press conference turned into a public feud between Tianxing and Tesla owners when it was broadcast in China.

Netizens were not surprised, after all, Tesla's autonomous driving system used to be unrivaled, and its fans made enemies everywhere. Owners of other car brands had long suffered from Tesla fans.

However, after the emergence of Tianxing Intelligent Driving's three-in-one system, it gained the ability to compete with Tesla.

As a result, fans of various brands started to impersonate Tesla fans and enjoy teasing them on a daily basis.

As the verbal battle between the two sides escalated,
The launch event for the American version of Tian Shu is also nearing its end.

Taylor drove Tian Shu, carrying Lu Liang, around the venue three times before returning to the stage.

"Taylor, how's the driving experience?" Flannery looked at Lu Liang, a smile in his eyes.

The people who saw that groping hand were not only the two people in the car, but also him standing next to the car, at a higher position.

He was also startled by Lu Liang's behavior, but fortunately the two of them were safe and sound, which was a stroke of luck amidst misfortune.

"It's very quiet and smooth, I like it very much."

Taylor kept glancing at Lu Liang, intentionally or unintentionally; his previous admiration had been replaced by a hint of resentment.

She was wrong, but Lu Liang still wouldn't let her go.

It took about five minutes to walk around the venue three times, during which Lu Liang kept making small movements.

"Lu, after keeping us in suspense for so long, I'm sure our fans are getting impatient. It's time to reveal the final price."

Flannery was exhausted. Standing between the two of them, he felt like a giant third wheel.

"Let's go together." Lu Liang smiled at Taylor, and the three of them counted down from three to reveal the price.

The large screen exhibits explosive characteristics.
The final figure is $5.39 and up!

"Any interested consumers can check and place an order on our official website."

Flannery felt a huge weight lifted off his shoulders; his work was finally coming to an end.

Working with Lu Liang, especially in public, is incredibly exhausting, more so than attending meetings that last for days and nights.

"The first 5,000 customers who pre-ordered the car will receive a new car gift package worth $4800."

Lu Liang smiled and picked up the conversation, and Flannery continued, "For more car purchase discounts, please visit the official website of GM Tianxing."

His subordinates have already reached an agreement with Harris.

With a 30% down payment and a 70% loan, the total interest rate for two years is only 5.8%, resulting in a total interest of $2188.

If we take the market's general two-year total interest rate of 13.5% as a benchmark, it is equivalent to a price reduction of $2900.

If we only consider profit and loss in this collaboration, then Delime is destined to lose money because its interest rate is lower than that of US Treasury bonds.

However, from a macro perspective, they can acquire a group of top-quality customers at minimal cost.

Whether it's a profit or a loss

We'll have to wait and see how Delime performs in the future.

However, their price reductions and discounts are genuine, and they haven't been dragged into a price war by Tesla.

The impact of this unconventional price reduction is their third card, which is expected to take effect soon.

Finally, Lu Liang smiled and bowed in three directions: "The stage is now in the hands of the beautiful Miss Taylor, so that she may end today's press conference with a final song."

The intro to Taylor's hit song started playing again, and Lu Liang and Flannery quietly left the stage.

The moment the price was announced, Ma Xiaohui's live stream chat was filled with comments like "So satisfying!"

After all, $5.39 is more than 37 RMB, which is more expensive than in China, so they feel superior.
