Monster Factory Chapter 642: The intersection of fate.

Chapter 642: The intersection of fate.

Looking at the rows of eyes waiting below, Ye Qing took a deep breath, suppressing the excitement in his heart. He had a plan that had been brewing for a long time in his mind, and today he will finally announce the second major event to the world when he launches his new product which is none other than the s.h.i.+ Lei car.

This plan has been itching in his mind ever since Monster Factory was promoted to Stage Six, and Ye Qing got the Power Tower and Plasma Battery.

At first, Ye Qing had preliminary ideas and had reviewed them several times and summoned company staff to discuss them several times in order to evaluate and improve this plan.

Now...

"Before I announce this important question, I would like to ask you two questions," Ye Qing stood still for a few seconds and smiled, "The s.h.i.+ Lei car, in fact, is the first real model launched by our Huge Industrial Monster. It is the staple product of our industry."

"Cars are also called the crown of the industry. Anyone can think of cars as very ordinary. Even in the countryside, you can see them. But if you look closely, you will find cars in all the streets, and according to the latest statistics, they are focused on the types of cars and that according to the brands chosen by the countries."

"Automobiles are the products with the highest industry standards and the most comprehensive types of industries in our lives. They include all of the industry categories in a country and involve approximately 30,000 different industrial parts."

"It is until today that our Huge Industrial Monster show dared to launch the first automotive product. It also marks that our Huge Industrial Monster has entered a new chapter of the show."

"So, I want everyone to predict. How many units of our s.h.i.+ Lei car will be sold next month?"

As soon as the problem arose, guests and the media were puzzled.

Although they don't know how Ye Qing's problem relates to the major events that will be announced later. But that didn't stop them from imagining that if the technology of the s.h.i.+ Lei car is really as good as that presented at the conference... No, even if it is only half of that presented at the conference. The s.h.i.+ Lei car will become a little horse in the Chinese car market, a little dark horse.

I'm afraid the only thing limiting the sales of s.h.i.+ Lei cars is the downside of pure electric power.

It is unnecessary to list the faults of electric vehicles, but if the plasma battery of s.h.i.+ Lei cars has three times the energy density, this fault will also be greatly alleviated, but these a.s.sumptions are based on the fact that if really s.h.i.+ Lei had this kind of technology.

A reporter from Sohu Entertainment took the initiative to respond. The bespectacled journalist thought it over: "Tesla is a star in the electric vehicle industry. It is highly regarded in European and American countries. But Tesla's sales in the Chinese market are not too high."

"I think for the s.h.i.+ Lei car, next month, sales can reach 5,000 units. When the reputation of the s.h.i.+ Lei car gradually spreads, sales will gradually breakthrough and reach ten thousand units."

Another man raised his hand to give another answer it was a car dealers.h.i.+p and gave a more professional answer. He said: "Wuling Zhiguang and Haval H 6 are the best-selling cars in China. Combined sales of cars of both brands for all-electric vehicles are less than 1% of all cars produced by Wuling Zhiguang, so I believe the best s.h.i.+ Lei car sales volume should be the sum of all vehicles pure electricity from the country. However, if you want to change people's car-buying habits and switch them from fuel-powered vehicles to pure electric vehicles, I think the s.h.i.+ Lei car still has a long way to go," for this answer Ye Qing winked at the man.

In terms of brand awareness, there is a huge gap between the s.h.i.+ Lei car and the Tesla car. But sales of Tesla cars in China are less than 5,000 units per year. In European and American countries, sales of Tesla cars are quite good, but together they still have not reached 1% of sales of Wuling Zhiguang's fuel car sales.

Although Tesla is very profitable, he could not get into the families of ordinary people, right now he may just be a toy for the rich.

The pricing of the standard version of s.h.i.+ Lei appears to be the biggest pie targeting mid-range cars in the Chinese auto market which is the private land of foreign joint venture cars. Can we count on an electric car to destabilize this market?

"The second question, why are sales of electric vehicles slow?" Ye Qing continued.

"We have carried out a special investigation on this matter. On the one hand, the actual mileage of pure electric vehicles can only reach half of the norm. On the other hand, the charging of pure electric vehicles is too heavy, and the community has to build special charging batteries. This considerably limits that. The freedom of pure electric vehicles can only be parked in fixed parking s.p.a.ces every time. However, in most communities across the country, parking s.p.a.ces are free and can be parked casually."

"There are still electric cars that have been around for two or three years, and they need to replace the battery. By calculation, it's not cheaper than a gasoline car."

This answer is sharp, the pure electric car seems to be energy efficient, and it can run as long as it is charged, but everyone knows that the longer the battery runs, the lower the endurance. After two years of operation, the mileage is only half the start, and after three years it will drop to a third. Are you biting your teeth to change the battery? But the money you need to change the battery is enough to buy a domestic fuel car. Isn't this a scam?

"Everyone understands the flaws of pure electric vehicles. These flaws are also obstacles to the pure electric car show."

Ye Qing waited for tens of seconds. When the scene was completely silent, he said calmly: "So our Huge Industrial Monster decided to solve this stumbling block in front of the electric car…"

"…Our huge industrial monster has decided to build 5,000 seats across the country over the next two years. We want to build a nationwide battery charging network so that all users of s.h.i.+ Lei cars can enjoy and power their cars and have the same treatment as those who have gasoline cars."

"In the energy service area, a s.h.i.+ Lei vehicle can be fully recharged with electricity in half an hour. If a person is traveling long distances, the time it takes to charge their car a full charge at the charging station is just enough to rest and eat; it only takes tens of minutes to get a mileage of over 300 kilometers."

Watching the double d.a.m.n eyes of the live double below, Ye Qing continued to smile: "Maybe everyone thinks this is a fifth-dimensional fairy tale. The cost of building a gas station in a city is several tens of millions, and to cover an area with gas stations on the highway costs more than 100 million Yuan. At Huge Industrial Monster, we have the capacity to invest in the construction of 5,000 energy service stations."

Who dares to answer this question?

Tesla initially promised to build several charging stations in China, but it took five or six years to build less than fifty charging stations, which still aren't much bigger than a car platform. All of them are concentrated in first-tier cities, where sales of Tesla cars are good.

It is estimated that the cost of these charging stations added up did not cost the price of a service station as it should be.

How much does an energy service area cost?

If you are on the main road, even if you build a thatched-roof hut, but to build two entrances and exits connecting it with the main roads, it will cost over 100 million Yuan.

Listening to the meaning of Huge Industrial Monster, it looks like they not only wanted to build an energy service area at the top but need to build more as well.

"We have the strength to build them," Ye Qing clenched his fists and answered the question rolling in everyone's heads with an unmistakable tone.

"The energy service area we want to build not only includes extremely charged batteries, but also provides a recreational place for communication and relaxation for every s.h.i.+ Lei car owner, and any car service imaginable."

"This energy service area will also become a calling card of our Huge Industrial Monster. A contribution from our Huge Industrial Monster, to the whole Chinese nation, for the belief that science and technology change lives."

"..."

It was a shock!

"Any technology, any product produced before," to the declaration of the young president of Huge Industrial Monster, they all turned into poor performances.

What spirit is it?

Five thousand gas stations, even with the most conservative estimate require an investment of 300 billion Yuan. Three hundred billion is maybe the sum of Huge Industrial Monster's fixed a.s.sets and cash, or more. This investment may even be accompanied by a cold reception of the s.h.i.+ Lei car in the market, and it will lose all its money.

But this young president didn't care. In a tone full of confidence, he announced this event which will determine the fate of the whole company.
