Chapter 889: Time Flies
February 13, 2007 is destined to be a day that will be remembered by history. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Just when people all over the world are carefully preparing and looking forward to the upcoming Valentine's Day, the American New Century Financial Corporation issued a profit warning for the fourth quarter of 2006.
HSBC Holdings, which has a great influence in the global economy, also announced its results on the same day, and increased its provisions for subprime housing credit in the United States by US$7 billion, totaling US$10.573 billion, an astonishing increase of 33.6%.
As soon as such a shocking news broke, it immediately caused an uproar, and the entire financial circle was no less than a 12-magnitude earthquake, and the stock market fell sharply on the same day, with the Hang Seng Index falling 777 points, or 4%.
Wall Street is shaking!
You know, these two companies are companies with huge influence in the United States, and their sudden actions have cast a faint shadow over the heads of almost all Americans.
The news was quickly transmitted to all corners of the world through various channels, and even CCTV news also reported it significantly.
As soon as the report was reported, the people immediately cheered, as if it was a very encouraging thing for them to see the economic setback in the United States.
However, there are many business people, but they faintly smell a bit of danger, even if the current impact only exists on the American side, but their hearts are beginning to carry a trace of unease.
Especially Ma Yun, when he saw the news from the news, he immediately remembered what Bai Ningyuan said to him at the lunch of the previous economic forum.
Although it was just an omen in front of him, Ma Yun felt that it seemed that what Bai Ningyuan said was gradually becoming a reality.
After sitting on the sofa and pondering for a while, Ma Yun picked up the phone and asked his secretary to inform the company's senior management to hold a meeting tomorrow.
The opportunity for Taobao to take off has come.
However, only a small number of business tycoons and companies engaged in import and export trade can be affected by these news, and most of the media do not pay too much attention to this matter, but are still paying attention to the dream plan launched on Leku's Weibo.
As Yan Yiyi continued to upload beautiful pictures of her photos in various scenic spots in Qinghai and Tibet to Weibo, and several other bloggers were once again selected as the lucky ones to realize their wishes, Bai Ningyuan's campaign suddenly overtook all competitors and became the most watched one, and Weibo has also become the preferred platform and social media for more and more young people.
Probably to see the great success of social media in the domestic network industry, especially the successful model of the alumni network and the development of penguin space, it is simply eye-catching, even the school intranet that was suppressed by these two, some time ago, it was also acquired by the ambitious Qianxiang Group, sounding the clarion call to challenge the two social network giants again, because of this, so the major portals can not sit still, and have launched their own blog services, focusing on the card of social networking, trying to expand their influence in this field。
The reason why we joined this battlefield is because with the rise of community networks, the influence of traditional portals is declining significantly, and profitability is also declining.
On January 10, the China Internet Society released the "2006 China Internet Survey Report", which showed that in the relative market share index of portal users, the share of salary waves was 19.6%, Netprofit was 18.11%, and Penguin was 16.95%, while the traditional Haoqiang Fox was far behind.
In the comprehensive ranking, Xinlang, Wangyi and Sohu are far behind the alumni network and penguin, which focus on social services, and the market recession has forced these portals to find new profit points.
It's just that the market of this social network is so big, there are already many companies in it to share the cake, including alumni network, penguin space and the new rise of Weibo and the school, 95% of the entire market, the remaining 5% is also dozens of social networking sites are grabbing, after the major portals join in, it is bound to be a new round of fierce competition.
Of course, Bai Ningyuan is not worried about these, in the early stage of development a long time ago, he has been laying out for the future, and now in this social field, Lexun li, alumni network, Weibo three popular products have joined forces, attracting hundreds of millions of users to be active in the social kingdom constructed by Bai Ningyuan, so that Leku Entertainment is enough to maintain the status of No.1 in the domestic social field, even if it is a portal that was once dominant, don't think about what products to follow the trend, to shake it.
Because he has such enough confidence, Bai Ningyuan did not meet all the things in the accident, but flew back to Langya with Liu Siying for the New Year.
At this time, Bai Ningyuan is no longer the obscure little guy back then, because of the name of the youngest billionaire in China, as well as various topics for so long, he has almost become a well-known figure in the entire Langya, almost since he went home, he has not been able to live in peace for a moment, and the people who come to visit can be said to be endless, from relatives and friends to subordinates of the company, from the secretary of the municipal party committee to classmates, the threshold of his house is almost broken, so Bai Ningyuan has no choice but to sneak back to the old house, and then hide quietly。
However, as the saying goes, if you can hide for a while, you can't hide for a lifetime, because of the special time of the New Year, there are many customs that cannot be avoided, starting from the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the New Year's greeting calls he received almost burst his mobile phone.
In short, the Chinese New Year seemed to him to have suddenly become an extremely painful thing.
After spending the fifteenth day of the first lunar month with his family, Bai Ningyuan couldn't wait to return to the capital and start his work and study life again in the new year.
After the start of the new year's work, there is a lot of work to be done, in addition to the financing of the Lepay system and the orchestra network, there is another thing, which also affects Bai Ningyuan's heart, that is, the Huhai International Auto Show that will come soon.
Last year, after a series of media reports, the domestic automobile industry has fully realized the strong rise of EMP, and it is also to prove to everyone that new energy vehicles do not only exist in theories and books, but also in the era of new energy vehicles, which has really come to people's lives.
Coupled with the crash test that shocked the global automotive industry, everyone in the domestic automobile industry is full of interest in this car, not only them, but also many netizens.
Since December last year, the preparations for the Huhai International Auto Show have been started within the EMP, and almost all the people in the marketing department are working overtime to make exhibition and performance plans, contact the production of exhibits, shoot advertisements, etc., and are almost busy with their feet on the ground.
At present, there is still more than a month before the Huhai International Auto Show, and the preparations have entered the final stage, and the workshop has begun to manufacture production displays.
In addition to meeting the needs of the Shanghai International Auto Show in a few days, there is a more important reason, that is, after reaching cooperation with Jili Group, EMP and local robot companies have invested one billion yuan to introduce and build a fully automatic electric vehicle production line, which has just been installed and debugged after the year, and after this production line, the daily output of electric vehicles of EMP will be able to reach 200 vehicles.
The introduction of the production line is to prepare for the mass production of subsequent production models, and now, after the formal finalization, EMP's electric vehicle R&D center has begun the mass production design of the model.
The current EMP is moving forward step by step according to the path designed by Bai Ningyuan.
The competitor on the other side of the ocean, Tesla, which was famous in the previous life, is about to face a concentrated outbreak of many problems because it has gone astray, such as changing the company's CEO, and the most serious is the gearbox problem.
As a supercar comparable to Porsche and Ferrari, the first model that Tesla is developing now has very high requirements for high-performance acceleration, and in this era, like the ordinary electric vehicles developed by other companies without a multi-stage gearbox, it is obvious that it cannot meet the needs of the Roadster, because the power output efficiency of the asynchronous motor is low at low speed, so Tesla has been planning to introduce a two-stage gearbox, and has been desperately developing in order to overcome this problem。
But the problem is that there is no precedent in the industry for how to systematically develop between the high-voltage and high-power electronic control system and the gearbox coordination.
What's more, for electric vehicles, the gearbox is not a necessary component, which has been verified in the previous life, so the current Tesla, the direction of research and development is wrong, which has led to this roadster, which has always been in a bottleneck.
This is definitely a very good opportunity for EMP who started late, so that they can seize the time, more to strengthen themselves, and obtain capital to compete with opponents, you know, in last year's Beijing Auto Show, the appearance, has attracted attention, and after the global safety test, the name of EMP is more concerned by many crooked nuts, looking forward to its performance, with a lot of fans.
EMP is in the midst of thousands of expectations, writing the legend of Chinese manufacturing......
