Chapter 154 Prototype Press Conference

Li Yunfei looked at Zhao Ye, and although he didn't want to admit it, he still nodded.

The carbon fiber produced by the fishing gear factory is indeed unsalable.

If I could replace the tricycle with a full carbon body, it would be a double blessing for me.

The two went to the fishing tackle factory together and retrieved the carbon fiber body.

The design of the new tricycle has been kept highly confidential because it has attracted attention from the entire network.

Only Li Yunfei and the prototype car design engineers and workers knew about it. Even the general manager Zhao Ye only knew a little bit.

When the full carbon body was retrieved and the prototype was assembled, Zhao Ye looked at the prototype and was stunned.

The tricycle in front of me doesn't look like the agricultural tricycle produced by our family at all.

The appearance is sci-fi and cool, and the overall style is between a sports car and a racing car, a bit like Batman's chariot.

"Director, are you sure this is a tricycle?"

Li Yunfei smiled and nodded, and said confidently: "Three wheels, what else can it be but a tricycle?"

The aerodynamic layout of this tricycle was designed by a top domestic sports car designer.

Not only that, after the design was completed, it was blown in the wind tunnel of the Equipment Design Bureau for a whole month.

The drag coefficient of this tricycle has been reduced to the lowest level, only 0.1Cd.

Rather than calling it a three-wheeled vehicle, it is more like a redesigned three-wheeled sports car with a sci-fi feel.

The most important thing is that this is an electric car that fully complies with the environmental protection standards touted by Europe and the United States, and can accelerate from 2.3 to km/h in just seconds.

"Director, what is the name of this tricycle of ours?"

"Let's call it Desert Storm." Li Yunfei said as he looked at the three-wheeled vehicle speeding like a phantom on the test field.

Zhao also listened and nodded excitedly.

With this name, this appearance, and this price, it would be strange if those wealthy Middle Eastern buyers could resist buying it.

At this moment, he wanted to go up and race a few laps to experience it for himself.

This Desert Storm completely subverts the stereotype of three-wheeled vehicles as agricultural and low-end.

The most important thing is that the current test data of this car fully meets the requirements of prototype design expenditure.

If we hold a prototype car launch conference now, it will definitely shock a large number of people.

"Director, what's a suitable price for our car?" Zhao couldn't help but ask.

Although this car is mainly supplied to Sarab, it would be a good thing if it could open up the domestic market due to its excellent performance and achieve success both domestically and overseas.

Li Yunfei looked at Zhao Ye and said, "Old Zhao, don't think too much."

"Which of my all-carbon body, super motor V9s, silicon carbide high-voltage system, intelligent chassis, intelligent driving system, and intelligent coupling braking system is not a top-level configuration?"

"Our car is not focused on cost-effectiveness. We will go for the high-end market and have the same price both domestically and overseas."

"Two hundred thousand dollars, no price reduction, equal treatment for all, unified configuration."

"Go contact the media, and we'll hold a prototype car launch event tomorrow."

"Without a prototype, even if the government supports it, the bank will still be reluctant to provide loans."

"Those banks have been ignoring us for a while now. After tomorrow's press conference, we will make it so that they can no longer afford us!"

Zhao Ye listened to Li Yunfei's words and nodded.

To be honest, if this car is sold abroad for $200,000 just for the sake of my reputation as the factory director, it's not expensive at all.

In the Middle East, the factory manager is almost deified, and the tricycle beating up the hexagram is also almost deified.

Such a cool tricycle can definitely capture the wallets of those big dog owners in an instant.

You know, I am Saladin. If we are brothers, let’s fight the Crusaders together and make those big guys recharge like crazy.

This is the real-life version of I am Saladin. If we are brothers, we can drive a tricycle together to blow up the hexagram.

Driving a tricycle is almost becoming a fashion trend in the local area.

"Director, what is the gross profit of our car?"

Li Yunfei looked at Zhao Ye, he touched his chin, estimated it in his mind, and then stretched out five fingers. "Hiss, fifty thousand US dollars?"

"Twenty-five percent profit. Can you call that a luxury car?"

"Our car is made in China, and the full carbon body is our own product. How can those top foreign sports cars compare with mine?"

"What I meant is, the cost is 50,000 US dollars, and the gross profit is 150,000 US dollars." Li Yunfei said disdainfully.

When Zhao Ye heard this, his heart skipped a beat and he subconsciously covered his chest.

With a gross profit of 300%, one vehicle can earn 150,000 US dollars. How many tricycles must be sold to make the profit back?

When it comes to huge profits, we have to look at high-end industries. No wonder Europe and the United States have been deindustrializing but have been holding on to high-end industries.

The launch of the prototype of the US$200,000 three-wheeled vehicle attracted the attention of the entire network as soon as a little news was leaked.

Li Yunfei was also pushed to the forefront by a large number of netizens.

In the promotional video released by the Warwick factory, the entire prototype car was covered with black cloth, giving people the feeling that it was like the H-20, with its face half covered.

The comment section of the promotional video is full of netizens whose appetites have been whetted.

"I can't even imagine what Mr. Li's $200,000 tricycle will look like."

"How can there be a tricycle that costs $200,000? It feels like a plus version of a regular tricycle."

"Mr. Li, can we give domestic netizens a discount and lower the price of the sample car?"

"That's right. They sold for 200,000 US dollars overseas. I don't ask for much. I just want them to sell for 20,000 RMB domestically."

"Twenty thousand? If Mr. Li dares to sell it for twenty thousand, I will build a temple for him!"

The next morning.

Mayor Song and his team came to personally attend the launch of the Desert Storm prototype vehicle.

He was also quite curious about this prototype car.

After all, Li Yunfei had always kept secret what the car looked like. Even when the mayor asked in person, he just said it was beyond imagination and evaded the question.

"Xiao Li, the press conference is about to start, can you let me see the prototype now?" Mayor Song was a little anxious.

He was the one who made this car possible, so if it fails, he will have to take part of the responsibility.

Now to be honest, even when he was promoted to mayor, he was not so anxious.

Li Yunfei smiled, then took out his mobile phone and opened the Desert Storm test drive video shot yesterday.

Mayor Song took the phone from Li Yunfei and was stunned after just one look at it.

"Xiao Li, are you serious?"

"of course."

“This car, can it be a three-wheeler?”

"Three wheels, what else could it be if not a tricycle?" Li Yunfei answered confidently.

"Okay, okay, this car is worth two hundred thousand US dollars. It is definitely worth the price." Mayor Song turned off his phone and handed it to Li Yunfei.

His comment aroused the curiosity of those around him, and they felt as if dozens of caterpillars were crawling on their hearts.

But due to the identities of the two people, no one dared to step forward to ask, let alone get close to take a look.

We can only find out what this car looks like after the prototype launch conference is officially launched.

When the audience and news media were all present, Li Yunfei, as the factory director and today's host, took a deep breath, smiled and quickly walked to the front desk.

He looked at the dark crowd in front of him, held the microphone, and said: "Dear audience, dear media friends, on behalf of the Warwick Agricultural Vehicle Factory, I would like to welcome everyone to attend our prototype vehicle launch conference."

"I am Li Yunfei, the factory manager who is going to build a tricycle worth US$200,000."

"We are all here today for one thing, which is to see what this tricycle worth two hundred thousand dollars looks like."

"I'm just going to say one thing here: our competitors are idiots!"

"Huawei Agricultural Vehicle Factory, which is trying to enter the million-dollar luxury car market, is also an idiot. Who would buy a three-wheeled vehicle worth two hundred thousand US dollars?"
