Chapter 304 The Horror Sales of Electric Cars
After the premiere of the "Three-Body Problem" movie, Lu Yang and Zhu Xiaotong were interviewed, and the couple praised the effect of the movie as extraordinary, which was regarded as an advertisement for the movie. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Regarding the children's questions that the outside world is most concerned about, the two looked at each other and smiled, avoiding answering, which made the reporter scratch his ears and cheeks in a hurry.
Lu Yang and Zhu Xiaotong have considered that they are not the kind of conservative parents who will not hinder their children's contact with the outside world. They know that by being born into such a family, children must learn to face the media. At least not now, though.
Back at home, Lu Yuhan mentioned something to Lu Yang.
"Brother, yesterday I received an invitation from JD.com to hold a general meeting of shareholders to discuss JD.com's listing." When Lu Yuhan graduated, he accepted 30% of JD.com's shares as a gift from his brother. After the dilution of JD.com's other financing in recent years, the current stake has dropped to 24.5%, but Lu Yuhan is still JD.com's largest individual shareholder.
"Going public? This is a good thing, according to the current development of JD.com, after listing, the market value should exceed 30 billion US dollars. "Lu Yang was too busy before and didn't pay attention to Jingdong's affairs, but Jingdong is also the second largest online shopping platform in China, and the valuation of the outside world will never be low. Now it seems that the thing that Lao Liu said about investing a hundred times to make a profit is about to come true.
Lu Yuhan asked, "Brother, what do you think of JD.com's development prospects?" ”
"What do you think?" Lu Yang asked rhetorically.
Lu Yuhan hesitated: "I see that the outside world is very optimistic about JD.com, thinking that it will be the next Internet giant in Huaxia, but, according to my understanding in the past two years, until now, JD.com has been losing money, and its development is just to reduce losses." ”
"So, you're not optimistic about it?"
Lu Yuhan nodded: "I don't know much about Internet business, but I think that if a company keeps losing money, no matter how good the prospect is, there will be problems." JD.com's model may be very good, but the cost of self-operation is too large, and if it continues like this, there is no possibility of making a profit......"
"So, you're not optimistic about JD.com's development prospects and want to sell your shares?"
"I asked someone to analyze it, JD.com is listed, in the short term, the market is still good, but if it continues to lose money after that, the value of the stock will definitely fall. So, I'm going to take a slow time with these shares within two years of its listing. Lu Yuhan said.
Lu Yang said: "You can decide these things yourself, the stock has been given to you." Besides, I don't know much about the stock market. Also, before selling, talk to Lao Liu, if he is willing to buy it back, it is best, even if the price is a little lower, after all, the friendship is here......"
Lu Yang still thanked Lao Liu in his heart, although he said that the cooperation at the beginning was mutually beneficial, and in the end, they all benefited. Although Lu Yang no longer holds shares in JD.com, the companies under Tianxin Group and JD.com still have a lot of cooperation, but they are not as close as they were at the beginning. In the past, some of Tianxin Group's products were exclusively authorized by JD.com, but now they are not available, and they can be purchased on major websites.
It has been half a year since the construction of the deuterium refining plant, and in this half year, Lu Yang went to Shate twice to bring the refined deuterium back to Fuhai. Of course, he didn't take the usual path, but flew as a mecha. Of course, the raw materials for refining cannot be kept at home, so he built an underground warehouse dedicated to storing deuterium at the Tianxin planting base.
With plenty of energy, Lu Yang flew more and more time, going back and forth to the sky almost every other week, as if building a space station, dividing the predetermined satellite platform into modules, sending them into space, and then manually assembling them. There are Xingtian mechas, and space operations should not be too simple.
In the past six months or so, Lu Yang's space-based weapons deployment plan has been completed by 60 percent, communications satellites have been deployed long ago, satellite platforms have been completed halfway, and metal rods have been secretly processed, but there is still a lack of power equipment. Now, he only waits for next year's quota increase, and then buys the technology of miniaturized fuel engines, and attaches it to metal rods, so that space-based weapons will have actual combat functions.
After leaving the capital, Zhu Xiaotong did not return to Fuhai with Lu Yang, but went to the northwest. Her always wish is to devote herself to public welfare and charity like Tang Qiuli, and now after giving birth, her family no longer restricts her. Lu Yang originally wanted to go with her, but there was something temporary.
"Wife, I see that you will run around the country in the future, it must be very hard, why don't we buy a private jet." When sending Zhu Xiaotong on the plane, Lu Yang couldn't help but say.
Zhu Xiaotong shook his head resolutely: "This is not good, I am going to do public welfare and charity, take a private jet, what does it look like?" This is not good for the image of our foundation, and it must not be done. ”
Lu Yang thought about it and felt that what she said was reasonable, there was too much contrast between private jets and public charity.
"And when are you coming back? The baby is waiting for you to breastfeed. ”
Zhu Xiaotong gave him a blank look: "I know ......"
After the husband and wife separated, Lu Yang went to Pengcheng, where the headquarters of Tianxin Automobile is located.
After nearly two years of digestion and research, Wang Chuanfu led the team to thoroughly understand the technology provided by Lu Yang, and at the same time ranked first in the world in the patent application for electric vehicles, and the number of patents that have been authorized is also in the forefront of the world.
In the past two years, Tianxin Automobile has launched a total of three high-end electric vehicles, including Galaxy sports car, Huanyu SUV, arc light commercial sedan, in addition, Wang Chuanfu They have also upgraded the technology of the original Pia Di and launched two mid-range electric vehicles. So far, the Galaxy sports car has sold 1 million units worldwide in two years, which is really amazing. With its outstanding performance, innovative design and reliable safety, this electric sports car was named No. 1 in the top 10 best cars in the world in 2012 by the United States Consumer Reports.
One thing to say is that the ban on Tianxin Group by the United States is concentrated in the field of intelligent electronics, mainly the products of Tianxin Electronics, as well as Tianxin chips, other products such as drones, cars and batteries, and the LCD screen has not been greatly affected.
Galaxy sports cars sell 1 million a year, allowing more people to see the amazing potential of electric vehicles, and Tesla, an old rival of Tianxin Automobile, has also begun to accelerate research and development, and may launch their new models in the next two months. Although it is a competitor, Tesla has also benefited from the Galaxy Roadster, and the number of pre-orders for models has increased significantly after the Galaxy Roadster sales were announced.
The Huanyu SUV is a model created by Wang Chuanfu for the Chinese market, which was first unveiled at last year's Beijing Auto Show. Compared with the Galaxy sports car, the price of this car is not so high, 450,000 yuan for the standard version and 750,000 yuan for the luxury version, and the main focus is still on safety and energy. The Universal SUV uses graphene battery technology, which greatly reduces the charging time, only half an hour to be fully charged, and can range 800 kilometers on a single charge.
As soon as this SUV was released, it was immediately sought after by the media, and it won the recognition of consumers with its humanized design and intelligent operation, and once launched, it sold more than 40,000 units in the month and more than 500,000 annual sales worldwide. Because of the best-selling of the Universal SUV, its potential rival, Toyota's Lexus sales have been greatly affected, not only did not increase, but fell by 5% in the same period, which made Toyota hate Tianxin cars even more, and at the same time stepped up the development of its own electric vehicles.
The arc light commercial sedan is developed by Wang Chuanfu's team for the European and American markets, and the design of the vehicle has invited the world's best car design company, which is very atmospheric and has a large interior space, which is very in line with the characteristics of Europeans. In the new car crash test, the arc also got a five-star evaluation, and successfully passed the European Union tests, landed in the European market in half a year, the response was very good, and then landed in the American market. Up to now, the sales volume of the arc light car has exceeded 200,000 units, and it has achieved success beyond everyone's expectations.
Not to mention the mid-range electric car of Biardi, in the fight with Geely, Great Wall and other brands, the share continues to increase. According to the report of the Huaxia Automobile Association, Tianxin Automobile quickly became the leader of domestic automobile brands last year, with annual sales exceeding 1.1 million, of which 300,000 were exported, becoming the most influential automobile brand in Huaxia.
For these achievements, Lu Yang affirmed. However, he is not the kind of person who only looks at sales, compared to this, Lu Yang attaches more importance to team building.
Wang Chuanfu introduced to Lu Yang: "Over the past year, our R&D team has tripled, and we are leading the world in terms of technology patents related to electric vehicles. In the first two quarters of this year, the total sales of automobiles reached 700,000, the sales revenue was 380 billion, and the annual sales are expected to exceed 1.5 million. ”
Lu Yang is still very satisfied with the development of Tianxin Automobile, compared with two years ago, when there was only one model of Galaxy Sports Car. In just two years, Wang Chuanfu and the team of Tianxin Automobile have successively launched two high-end cars and two mid-range cars.
"You have done a very good job, at the end of this year, Tianxin Automobile's year-end bonus will be doubled!" Lu Yang is a person with clear rewards and punishments, and he also knows what kind of reward can stimulate everyone's motivation, and immediately said to Wang Chuanfu.
The doubling of the year-end bonus is not a small reward for the employees of Tianxin Automobile. In terms of treatment, Tianxin Automobile is also the top in China, especially for technical personnel, and the salary level is 50% higher than the domestic average. There's a reason for that, because most of their technical team is poached from other companies.
"Lao Wang, how is the research on the next generation of car batteries going now?" Lu Yang asked.
Bidi originally started as a battery, and the founder Wang Chuanfu is an expert in the field of batteries. After Luyang acquired Biardi, its battery R&D department was still retained, in order to design car batteries. (To be continued.) )
