The Grandmother in the Siheyuan

As soon as Tesla posted its job ad, many people applied. However, they were overthinking it. Tesla pays high salaries and has high requirements. It's not like Tesla will accept just anyone who applies.

Tesla's high standards and strict requirements have also relieved surrounding companies, because according to Tesla's standards, even if they poach key personnel from their company, they won't be able to poach many.

At this point, some bosses might feel smug, because the biggest threat to their company has been eliminated.

Some business owners are asking themselves: How big is the gap between us and Tesla? Our company's core technical personnel are not even valued by Tesla. The gap is too big. If we produce the same type of products as Tesla in the future, how will we compete?
Clearly, the second type of person will go further than the first type.

Looking at the electric vehicle industry as a whole, it is actually Chinese companies that hold more patents. Liu Hua thinks that Ma Jianjun is unlikely to announce any patent sharing like he did in his previous life.

Who knows, extraordinary people must have extraordinary abilities. Liu Hua couldn't figure out how Ma Jianjun's thought process worked.

After returning to the United States, this guy remained silent for a month before suddenly announcing that he would release his 400 electric vehicle patents for free.

At the time, it shocked the world, especially those who didn't know the industry, including some people in our country. Although BYD's electric cars were already on the road, these people who didn't know the industry still thought that Tesla was the future of electric cars because Tesla had a bigger reputation.

Ma Jianjun shared so many electric vehicle patents at once, and these people believe that Ma Jianjun's actions show boundless love and compassion.

Immediately, newspapers interviewed Wang Chuanfu, with reporters sounding like they were enjoying the drama: "Mr. Wang, what are your thoughts on Ma Jianjun sharing 400 electric vehicle patents? After sharing these 400 electric vehicle patents, will your company's electric vehicles benefit from this and experience a rapid technological advancement?"

These words disgusted Wang Chuanfu; it was like he was happily munching on a spicy duck neck when suddenly he found a rat's head inside.

Wang Chuanfu said irritably, "Do I need him to share patents? I have more patents than him, and they are better than his. When he published them, we conducted a patent search. Of these four hundred patents, which one do we not have a substitute for, and which one do we not have a better solution for?"

Wang Chuanfu's answer surprised the reporter, so he continued to ask, "Since you have more advanced technology, do you have any plans to share your patents?"

Wang Chuanfu felt like he was about to vomit. He glared at the reporter and said, "Why should I share? Tesla has more advanced technology, so why doesn't it share its most advanced technology? If you have advanced technology, you should share it. The Americans have a lot of advanced technology in gasoline cars, why don't they share it?"

Unable to obtain any explosive news from Wang Chuanfu, the reporter embellished the story, basically claiming that Wang Chuanfu lacked strategic vision and humanitarian spirit.

There are all sorts of comments praising Tesla online, but nobody believes that Wang Chuanfu has more advanced technology. They think his words are just a matter of saving face and suffering for it.

Some people bother Liu Hua because he works in the battery industry.

Liu Hua was also getting impatient. He had two important tasks: controlled nuclear fusion and spacecraft. Especially since they were still in the initial stages, and everything was difficult at the beginning, he didn't have time to waste.

Liu Hua only replied with one sentence: "Tesla, like BYD, purchased patent licenses from Taiyi New Energy. Tesla paid twice as much. In addition, Tesla's batteries are also from Taiyi New Energy."

"So, you think our country's new energy vehicle technology is more advanced than America's?" Liu Hua chuckled. "Electric vehicles are different from gasoline vehicles. Whether it's the US, Europe, or us, we've all just started researching them. We're all on the same starting line. What makes you think we can't be more advanced than the US?"

This statement has gained widespread recognition online, but some people disagree, arguing that the United States is the world's leading technological power and its new energy industry is certainly more advanced than ours.

Since the boss wouldn't come out to explain, Taiyi New Energy couldn't just let people speculate like that, so they directly sent a document to the media.

It turns out that the US has been purchasing new energy equipment and batteries from Taiyi New Energy for about ten years, including mobile phone batteries, laptop batteries, and even larger vehicle batteries.

The sheepdog could hardly believe its eyes. This was the United States, the world's technological superpower! How could they possibly be using new energy equipment produced in China?

Taiyi New Energy Battery's response was very encouraging, and the patriots online were extremely arrogant, launching a barrage of attacks that left the sheepdog breathless.

So the sheepdogs had to change the battlefield and start saying that we don't have fifth-generation fighters, aircraft carriers, or overseas military bases.

Some people wanted to say that we couldn't manufacture some simple industrial products, but unfortunately, they were silenced.

As we all know, sheepdogs are organized, and some people are trying to spread rumors that our company cannot produce lighter gaskets or heating elements for rice cookers.

Unfortunately, their proposal was immediately stopped by his superiors. Just because these sheepdogs have no memory doesn't mean their superiors don't. The last person to spread such rumors was about ballpoint pen refills and steel balls, which angered Liu Hua, who almost bankrupted all companies of that type worldwide.

The Agency for International Development (AID) remembers this incident very clearly. Although they were not the ones who suffered the loss, they still felt the pressure and complaints from the two countries that were the first to complain.

If things go wrong again, it could seriously affect their funding.

For the big boss behind the scenes, smearing and spreading rumors is just a means to an end; the real goal is funding.

So, under the guidance of the mastermind behind the scenes, the sheepdog actually found a weakness: the chip.

What do you mean the 21st century is the 21st century of computers? Our country can't even manufacture the soul chip of a computer.

Some people say we are short-sighted. Computers are the foundation of future society, yet we don't pay attention to them, falling behind from the very beginning and never catching up with the leading level.

Although the rumors circulated online more than once, their widespread dissemination inevitably affected morale. Therefore, the propaganda department invited Liu Hua to be interviewed by CCTV to dispel the rumors.

Since Liu Hua is the founder of our modern semiconductor industry, it's most fitting that this legend be interviewed. (End of Chapter)
