Chapter 385

Chen Feng smiled but said nothing. If you have to choose one in the new energy field, your suggestion is Ideal Auto.

NIO is not bad, but its biggest shortcoming is its traffic, which is not as good as Autohome, which has been deeply rooted in for 20 years. This is also impossible.

"Hey, spontaneous combustion seems to have become a curse that new car-making forces cannot escape." Bao Fan poured Chen Feng with red wine and sighed: "As the younger generation in the car-making industry, after experiencing a failed attempt, Li Xiang was indeed very cautious in the selection of tracks and product positioning. He actually took the lead and made a "fuel-burning power generation" extended-distance car?"

Chen Feng nodded. He and Ideal Auto have never lacked doubts after five years of building cars. It may not be fatal enough to burn by chance, but for him who only has one chance to play cards, there must be more fire pits waiting for him to fill in due to quality issues.

If you don’t burst out in silence, you will perish in silence!

As the most famous entrepreneurial star born in the 1980s, he was one of the people he admired back then.

"If you want to say that Ideal Auto's life is really not going well, all kinds of unlucky things are everywhere, and Li Xiang has started selling cars live."

Bao Fan said helplessly: "When people sit at home, they come from the sky. Luckin Coffee revealed that its financial fraud was a victim. At the beginning of this year, it secretly applied to go to the US IPO and raised at least $500 million."

"Later everyone knows that Chinese stocks listed in the United States have lost the trust of investors, and Ideal IPO plans to follow Luckin to be buried with me..."

Chen Feng laughed, so Li Xiang, who has always been low-key, forwarded Lu Zhengyao's apology on Weibo, and called him a name and scolded him...

sha     bi,

Scammer!

"This is not the end. The subsequent new energy vehicle subsidy policy once again puts Ideal in embarrassment: the 300,000 subsidy threshold will just turn the Ideal One card, which costs 328,000 yuan, out of the online outline!"

"Although Li Xiang posted on Weibo as soon as possible after the policy was released, remarking about the upcoming catastrophe of domestic pure electric vehicles, this guy must be unhappy about his lack of subsidies."

"It seems that only Tesla dares to make trouble with the price. In order to get subsidies, even ignores the feelings of the old car owners, they first raise prices and then lower prices, and the abacus is a joke."

"But Ideal One dares not be so arrogant. From the perspective of new users, it is naturally a good thing to reduce the price, but old car owners will definitely not buy it, right?"

"Last year, Xiaopeng caused old car owners to protect their rights due to the price reduction and the battery life of the new car. In desperation, He Xiaopeng could only propose a new compensation plan. At this critical moment, what can we do with the ideal of losing one billion yuan?"

Chen Feng and Bao Fan clinked a cup and smiled and said, "Actually, what I am better about is him."

"If there was no spontaneous combustion this time, Ideal One's performance was actually remarkable. At least among the new car-making forces, it was the smoothest."

"Whether it is cost control, battery fire prevention, price adjustment, or in the production system and capital operation... he has learned a lot from Xiaopeng and NIO, and has successfully avoided some pitfalls."

"Others don't know the inside story, but you don't know the trick between the three of them?"

Bao Fan laughed. In fact, these three companies have a close relationship with each other. From the perspective of product matrix, equity, founder friendship, etc., a nominal alliance relationship has long been formed.

Last month, Li Xiang also publicly stated: If the new forces can survive three companies, I hope that their comrades will be NIO and Xiaopeng.

Facing an unknown area full of life and death challenges,

Isn’t it a wise choice to get together?

"But Ideal One is a range-extended car after all. The core hardware of the range-extended device is pure electric comrades without a lesson in the past. Even traditional fuel car manufacturers do not have much experience to learn from."

Bao Fan said seriously: "This is his own choice, and it is also the price he has to pay for taking a wrong approach!"

Chen Feng waved his hand, which was actually the reason why he respected him.

The reason why I chose the extended-trip car track is not only the helplessness of a latecomer, but also the persistence of a car fan.

At the age of 18, he dropped out of school and started his business and founded Poppao.com and Autohome. He was the myth of Internet entrepreneurship for post-80s.

The successful experience and thinking mode of the Internet have made him different from other new car manufacturers from the beginning, positioning urban intelligent transportation service providers, launching Sev projects with small and low-speed electric vehicles as solutions, and ambitiously exploring the shared travel market.

Unfortunately, this seemingly beautiful project made him taste the taste of failure and was forced to transform and find a market segment that was not only not playing with the Internet concept, but also in Tesla, Xiaopeng, NIO, and WM.

Helpless!

Thinking of this, Chen Feng said: "I prefer that he is a car fan and understands cars and users. The reason I chose the extended-range route is because the world does not need a new fuel car, nor does it have to explain to users why the mileage of electric cars is so low?"

"Finally targeting the fuel car of the Highlander level and positioning the Ideal One as a dad car that meets the needs of three generations of family members, I have to say it's a very smart choice."

"It's just that it's difficult to make pure electric cars, and it's even harder to make extended-trip cars. Because the extended-trip software is very complicated and cannot be done according to the management methods of traditional car manufacturers."

"What OTA, software algorithm, system architecture, cloud services, autonomous driving..."

"The money is burning across the river by feeling the stones, walking a path that others don't want to go or dare not take!"

Bao Fan was also silent. He must maintain respect for entrepreneurs who are brave enough to try, no matter what the results are.

Of course, everyone is not optimistic about Laoma's Alibaba. Even the Internet has not yet been popularized. Do you actually want to play e-commerce?

The result is now...

To be honest, Chen Feng is not optimistic about new energy. All fools know that this is the general trend in the future.

But now is not the best time to enter, and technology cannot be solved by burning money.

Look at the failure and long research and development of the ideal sev project, miss the most precious window period for new energy and directly enter a cruel reshuffle period.

Next year, Tesla model y will be produced in China, and pure electric and hybrid models from traditional car companies such as Volkswagen and Toyota will also be launched on a large scale. This month, even Porsche will launch new cars...

There is definitely not much time left for your ideals.

Specializes in profession,

Do you really think that the engineers who have accumulated a hundred years of Mercedes-Benz and BMW are just making a living?

Bao Fan has already got the answer he wants. This guy is not optimistic, at least he is not very interested now.

It can also be understood that the Internet can only be considered icing on the cake for traditional manufacturing. If you make it well, you will sell more. In the final analysis, it will only focus on technology and supply chain.

This is also the confidence of traditional automobile wealthy families to be unhurried and unhappy.

Just do whatever you want and spend money to educate the market well?

I will come in again to cut leeks!

But after all, I am playing venture capital. Is Mercedes-Benz and BMW apart from money?

Like Li Xiang, you must go astray and not seek to dominate the world, but you also have to compete for a well-known name, right?
