Zhang Yifan saw through the chain reaction of capital behind this media storm at a glance.

This has never been a quality issue affecting a single vehicle model.

A high-end luxury car under the Chrysanthemum brand overturned.

Jiangwei Automobile, the collaborating R&D partner, was the first to be affected.

Followed by.

All related car companies in the entire Red Mobility intelligent mobility ecosystem.

The stock prices will all be dragged down by this wave of negative public opinion.

The capital market never distinguishes between individual cases and commonalities.

As long as a fatal security flaw exists within the system.

Investors' panic will directly affect the entire industry chain.

If this incident hadn't come to light...

Zhang Yifan had completely forgotten that he still held ten million shares of Chixing Motors stock.

The original purchase price was 2.12 yuan per share.

At that time, it was not yet known that Chixing Motors had a collaboration with Chrysanthemum.

This investment was considered a trial run at the time.

No one could have predicted it.

Subsequently, the Miaomiao M9 series became a hit.

It boosted the entire automotive sector of Hongmeng Zhixing.

Along with the stock price of Chixing Motors, which was at the bottom of the list, it rose steadily.

After several rounds of price increases...

The initial investment was ten million yuan.

It has now multiplied several times over, with the unrealized profits being extremely exaggerated.

From the perspective of ordinary people.

This is a huge sum of money, enough to achieve financial freedom.

But in the case of Zhang Yifan now...

This amount of profit is really not a lot of money.

His current industrial layout and cash flow reserves.

It has long transcended the level of ordinary capital accumulation.

But Zhang Yifan has never been the type to complain about having too much money.

His guiding principles have always been very simple.

Even the smallest mosquito leg is still meat.

There's no reason to give up profits that are already in hand.

more importantly.

Selling stocks now would be a win-win situation.

the first.

Secure all profits and turn paper money into real cash flow.

second.

He sold off his massive holdings, amounting to tens of millions of yuan, in one concentrated effort.

This will deal another heavy blow to the already volatile Chixing stock price.

This further exacerbated the capital market turmoil within the Hongmeng Smart Mobility system.

There's no need to miss out on a free way to annoy your rivals.

Zhang Yifan's vision is far more far-sighted than that of netizens who are just watching the spectacle online.

The issues revealed by the Zunmiao L900 are not simply assembly defects.

It is a fatal structural and batch-related safety flaw.

The braking system is a core life-saving component of a car.

A batch breakage problem has occurred.

This means that there are loopholes in the brand's quality control, design process, and supply chain system.

Consumers will panic.

Market trust will be wiped out completely.

Today's problem is with the Zunmiao L900.

Market panic is expected to spread tomorrow.

The Miaomiao M9 series, which is in the same system, will inevitably be questioned about its quality control.

The car model's reputation was going to collapse sooner or later.

Besides.

Zhang Yifan also possesses a crucial piece of information unknown to outsiders.

Rossi had long been considering cutting it off.

I've always wanted to completely kick Chixing Motors, which embarrassed him at the press conference, out of Hongmeng Zhixing's core system.

However, this is hampered by the group's overall strategy, shareholder opinions, and market dynamics.

There has been no official announcement yet.

But cutting is a done deal.

Once Chixing is completely separated from Hongmeng Zhixing.

They lost the endorsement of top brands, technical support, and channel resources.

Chixing Motors, which is inherently weak.

The stock price will only plummet.

Don't even talk about making money then.

The remaining positions he holds.

Even the initial ten million yuan principal is likely to be completely trapped, resulting in a total loss.

In the capital market, the worst things to do are to act on emotions and to take chances.

You can keep a low profile if you're rich.

But you absolutely cannot squander money recklessly.

Zhang Yifan made the final decision instantly.

just now.

It is the only and best ultimate cash-out window.

none of them.

As long as the stock market is open.

He would immediately liquidate all his Chixing shares.

They left nothing behind and ran away with everything.

To fully understand all the pros and cons.

Zhang Yifan remained calm and composed, without the slightest disturbance.

The outside world is rife with turmoil and capital instability.

It won't affect him for the time being.

He simply turned off the lights and rested.

Waiting patiently for the market to open and the profits to be made the next day.

Some people are sleeping peacefully.

Some people stayed up all night.

late at night.

Top-floor conference room of Chrysanthemum Group.

The area was brightly lit and completely enclosed.

A high-pressure, closed-door meeting has been going on for several hours.

Only two key figures attended the meeting.

Rossi.

And the top executive of Jiangwei Automobile who rushed over overnight.

No one interrupted the entire time.

No one dared to relax.

The long meeting came to an end.

The head of Jiangwei Automobile was the first to leave the conference room.

His whole face was filled with sorrow.

His steps were heavy, and his eyes were dim.

There is no hope of turning things around.

Rossi followed closely behind.

Their condition was even worse than the opponent's.

His face was ashen, and his whole body was tense.

The anger and irritability between his brows were almost overflowing.

Both of them knew it.

They've stumbled into a dead end with no solution.

There is no room for public relations maneuvering in this matter.

All attempts to whitewash one's image are suicidal.

The principle is simple and straightforward, and everyone can understand it.

The tests conducted by Dongchewang are genuine, with no hidden tricks or scripts.

Professional enclosed venue.

Standardize high-speed emergency braking conditions.

Three brand new, unreleased Zunmiao L900s.

The brake pedal broke in all three tests.

There is a 100% chance of it going wrong.

The entire process was recorded on video, the data was stored, and the footage was made public.

The evidence is irrefutable, leaving no room for fabrication.

Even more fatal is the publicly available measured data.

The force required to press the brake pedal when it breaks is only 1612 Newtons.

The static load standard is explicitly stipulated by the state.

It is 2000 cows.

The stark data gap is laid bare before netizens across the internet.

"Almost" is an error.

A difference of several hundred Newtons indicates a genuine failure to meet quality control and design standards.

They forcibly washed the floor, claiming that the test vehicle's excessive weight caused the pedals to break.

These words were spoken.

This directly confirms the shoddy workmanship and cost-cutting.

There are countless luxury cars on the market that are heavier and larger than the Zunmiao L900.

They can easily build the same working conditions as others.

Only your car can break the brake pedal.

If it's not shoddy workmanship, then what is it?

Several hours of closed-door discussions.

Two industry giants racked their brains.

They were unable to come up with a feasible plan to turn the tide.

They were forced into a corner with no way out.

Ultimately, the only viable option is the most conservative, ineffective, but feasible process.

The authorities have issued a statement and launched an investigation.

It was late at night.

The long-dormant official account of Jiangwei Auto.

The first public opinion response statement was issued.

The content is mediocre and the entire process is template-based.

In short, just a few words.

We have been paying close attention to this online public opinion event.

A special investigation team was established immediately.

A comprehensive retest and source tracing investigation will be conducted on the vehicle involved.

The investigation results will be released as soon as possible.

His attitude seemed to be upright.

In reality, it was all nonsense, with no substantive content whatsoever.

Less than three minutes.

The official Hongmeng Smart Mobility account also released a statement.

Compared to Jiang Wei's vague response.

Hongmeng Zhixing's statement was an attempt to forcefully stabilize the situation.

the first.

To date, the group has not received any feedback from car owners regarding brake pedal malfunctions in actual vehicle use scenarios.

second.

The braking systems of all models have been developed and verified in accordance with processes that exceed national and industry standards.

third.

This test was conducted under extreme conditions.

This type of problem does not occur with daily driving.

The group will optimize component design.

We offer free parts upgrades to all owners of vehicles that have already been delivered.

Two official statements went viral and trended on social media.

The official response was what they thought was a way to stop the bleeding.

After landing, the effect was completely the opposite.

Not only did they fail to stabilize public opinion.

Instead, it ignited a wave of ridicule across the internet.

Netizens have discerning eyes.

The data is dead, the facts are dead.

Any rhetoric seems utterly inadequate.

The comment section of Jiangwei Auto is the most surreal.

A large number of netizens gathered to make fun of the situation.

"Zunmiao is the car model that Chrysanthemum is the favorite son of."

The whole incident was endorsed and promoted by Chrysanthemum.

Now that things have gone wrong, is Jiang Wei going to take responsibility?

Is this an attempt to ride the wave of popularity, or is it being forced to take the blame?

"A truly unjust partner, getting no share of the profits but always taking the blame."

The vast majority of the artillery fire.

The focus is precisely on the comments section of Hongmeng Smart Mobility.

Netizens meticulously analyzed the official rhetoric, accurately debunking its claims.

"What constitutes an extreme driving condition for emergency braking at a normal speed of 100 km/h on a high-speed highway?"

"So, if I buy this million-dollar luxury car, I can only use it for slow-speed driving and getting around?"

"A component that breaks at 1612 Newtons has the nerve to claim it exceeds the national standard?"

"The national standard of 2000 Newtons is the minimum requirement, and you can't even get past the passing mark."

"Free upgrades sound nice, but why should car owners bear the risk due to your design flaws?"

"Who would dare drive it after the upgrade? This brand's safety reputation has been completely destroyed."

He was ridiculed across the internet, and no one tried to defend him.

A small amount of residual brand iron powder.

I was just about to start defending myself.

It was instantly flooded with a massive number of mocking comments.

In just one night.

The reputation of the Red Cute Smart Travel and the Zunmiao L900.

From the ceiling of domestic high-end products.

It plummeted to the bottom of the industry.

The real commercial backlash brought about by public opinion.

It came quickly and ruthlessly.

Unsubscription data is updated in real time in the background.

The total cancellation rate of the Zunmiao L900 across the entire network.

It directly broke through 80%.

This data.

They rendered all the top executives speechless.

Outsiders cannot understand its fatal nature.

Rossi knew better than anyone else.

The production model of Zunmiao L900.

This is the mainstream model for high-end luxury cars: order first, then production.

Users place an order and pay a deposit.

Only then will the factory schedule orders, prepare inventory, produce, and assemble.

There is no blind production inventory.

Eighty percent of the orders were cancelled.

This means all the previous R&D investment, production line construction, and supply chain reserves.

It's all a complete waste.

Vehicles that have already been scheduled for production.

No buyer took over.

This leads to a huge amount of dead inventory.

They can't sell them, and they're stuck with them.

Every single one of them resulted in a pure loss.

This is no longer a simple case of a reputation collapse or a public relations crisis.

It was a genuine business collapse worth tens of billions of dollars.

Group profits, brand valuation, and layout in the high-end market.

Everything collapsed overnight.

Rossi looked at the unsubscription report that refreshed in the backend.

A surge of emotion welled up in my chest.

I almost vomited blood on the spot.

I had been suppressing my emotions all night.

It is on the verge of completely spiraling out of control.

A perfectly good high-end flagship model that breaks new ground.

It was all because of a basic structural defect.

It led to a complete loss.

He stayed up all night.

They discussed it all night.

What we got was not a solution.

It's devastating cancellation data.

They were completely driven into a corner.

Mild public relations, low-key apology, and free upgrade.

All soft tactics failed.

Since no one listens to good advice.

Gentleness won't give you a chance to catch your breath.

Then let's switch to tougher measures.

Rossi's eyes were bloodshot, with blood vessels visible in the center.

The air pressure around him was extremely low.

He picked up the internal phone.

My fingertips turned white from applying so much pressure.

The group's highest priority internal dedicated line was dialed.

A cold and resolute voice.

The sound rang out in the deathly silent office.

"Connect me to the legal department!"
