Chapter 192: Business Talks
The next morning, Ye Hua went to the Deep Sky Hotel.
The invitees are all the giants of the global automotive industry, no one is idle, almost all of them are in business, but everything has a priority.
When Ye Hua sent out the invitation, they all postponed or temporarily shelved their existing itinerary or plans, and made time to come to the meeting.
To put it simply, everyone is very busy, and if there is something to talk about as soon as possible, they will go back to their homes and do their own things.
After a day of rest, I basically reversed the jet lag, and I also rushed to the Shenkeng Hotel one after another.
As the most famous hotel in Shangdu, Shenkeng Hotel has 370 hotel rooms with different styles, such as mine cave style, industrial style, and underwater suite, which are distributed on three floors above ground, 17 floors underground and one floor underwater.
In order to host this business party, Ye Hua asked the coastline company to charter the ninth to second floors of the basement and hold the business party in an industrial-style hotel lobby.
The major auto giants of the world's seven major countries have already arrived at the appointment location ten minutes in advance, and the Shenkeng Hotel has also become the focus of domestic and foreign media during this time.
There is no impermeable wall in the world, not to mention that reporters from all walks of life who began to try to dig up relevant news yesterday have already been eyed.
However, the shoreline company had already anticipated it, and chartered three entire floors to ensure that this informal business meeting was not disturbed by the outside world and the details were not known by the media.
After the incident, the outside world also speculated about it and talked about it, which directly stole the limelight of the 4th World Artificial Intelligence Conference, and the outside world was even more amazed by the strong appeal shown by Ye Hua and the coastline company.
In the automotive industry, which is completely unfamiliar to coastline companies, Ye Hua's arms were raised, and the global presidents of major auto giants actually responded.
It's really coming over!
There is no doubt that people have a new understanding of Ye Hua's influence.
But then again, in the world, these capitalists and giants are all unprofitable masters, so happy and happy to come all the way over, of course, for profit, otherwise how could these bigwigs ignore Ye Hua?
It is true that he already has a strong influence in the business and technology worlds that only a few people have, but the other bigwigs are also tempered masters, and they will never buy it if they have nothing to do with it.
It can only be said that the world is bustling, and it is all for profit; The world is crowded, all for profit.
Everyone doesn't want to see Tesla and Coastline play, and they are very aware of what kind of pattern changes the progress of artificial intelligence will bring about in the automotive industry in the future.
Elon Musk did think so, but he didn't have too much extravagant expectations for this unrealistic idea, and Tesla couldn't eat it, let alone eat it.
Besides, Ye Hua will not do this, just a Tesla Motors company, with annual sales of more than 10 billion US dollars, will not bring much commercial benefit to the shoreline company.
……
At 10:45 a.m., in a spacious industrial-style hotel lobby, all the major automobile giants had already arrived, including 20 or 30 domestic and foreign auto bigwigs from Daimler's global president and CEO, Ora Kellernius, Volkswagen Group CEO Herbert Diess, General Motors Chairman and CEO Mary Bora, and Ford Motor Company Executive Chairman Bill Ford.
By now, these bigwigs have basically predicted the purpose of Ye Hua's move.
"The ambition of this young Chinese man is really amazing, and I wonder if he can hold on to this scene."
"Bill, you're despising a person who is in charge of the future, don't forget that Brian suffered a big loss at his hands some time ago, don't plant it here!"
"Brian? What are you talking about...... Brian Roberts, CEO of Comcast Telecom? ”
"Who else will there be? Time Warner, Disney and even the entire Hollywood have all planted their heels, 30% of the box office market is shared, and the shoreline company can earn at least $20 billion from the entire film industry this year, God, this person is too ruthless, he has simply drained Hollywood, more than $20 billion, what a dazzling number. ”
"So the last person who despised him has paid a heavy price, this is a greedy and ruthless character, so don't be fooled by his young skin, behind that young face is a treacherous heart like you, Bill."
"Huh!"
"But today's party is also in line with his appetite, and this time he called all of us, presumably to develop a global standard plan, and I don't believe we bet $10."
"I'm happy to accompany you."
At this moment, Herbert Diess, the head of the Volkswagen Group, and Bill Ford, the executive chairman of the Ford Motor Group, whispered and talked happily, and the two sides really made a bet.
At 10:55, Ye Hua arrived on time, and when everyone saw the arrival of the host, they immediately stopped their private discussions.
Ye Hua came in a formal suit, looked around at everyone and said with a loud smile: "It seems that you have adapted to the jet lag in the Eastern Hemisphere, and everyone is in a good mood." ”
"Mr. Ye!"
"Mr. Ye!"
When they met for the first time, Ye Hua shook hands with a group of bigwigs in the automotive industry one by one, and introduced themselves to each other.
Speaking of which, Ye Hua basically faced sixty or seventy-year-old men in this business meeting or negotiation, but he was always calm and determined, which also made the giants of the automobile industry present secretly impressed, and the entire Hollywood such as the American telecommunications giant Comcast and Disney suffered a big loss in his hands, which shows that it is not an accident or luck.
Talent and self-confidence are really hard to say, relying on strong hard power to show calmness is called self-confidence, but if there is no real background and real power behind it, the calmness shown is conceited.
Obviously, Ye Hua belongs to the former.
At the end of the simple meeting, with a few polite words, Ye Hua, as the host, stretched out his hand to signal everyone, and the bigwigs present also sat down at a large round table.
Ye Hua came to his seat, and then looked around at everyone, the eyes of more than twenty or thirty pairs of bigwigs were focused on him, and he was calm and calm in the audience, sending and receiving freely.
Everyone is very busy, Ye Hua got straight to the point when he arrived, looked at it and said with a smile: "I feel honored that you can be invited to come to the meeting, everyone is here, so let's start directly." ”
When the bigwigs at the scene heard him say "all present", they all tacitly thought of Toyota, Honda, Nissan, the Japanese auto giants, especially Toyota, as the world's largest car sales, but absent here.
Toyota and other Japanese auto giants are excluded from the system, which means that their market share will be vacated, and as long as it is vacated, the major auto suppliers and distributors of the other seven major countries will be able to share it in minutes.
This is a gluttonous feast, even if the big guys present share it together, they can eat eight or nine points full, there is no way who makes Japanese car companies occupy a huge market share in the world, only Toyota is one of the world's four major automobile manufacturers, it can be seen how fat and how big this meat is.
Everyone silently said "astringent worship" to Akio Toyoda in advance, instead of expressing distress.
At this time, Ye Hua continued: "I invite you to come this time, I must have guessed the general idea, yes, artificial intelligence-driven unmanned autonomous driving is the future trend of the automotive industry, I, as a layman in the automotive industry, this bold proposal, discuss and discuss with you, and work together to develop a set of systematic developer standard solutions, which will inevitably benefit ......everyone."
While speaking, Ye Hua couldn't help but stop, and his eyes fell on the two foreigners on the left, who were the two global presidents of Volkswagen and Ford, and Bill Ford, who was speechless, took out $10 from his arms and gave it to Herbert Dees.
