Rebirth Starts From 2006 - Chapter 793
After Gao Lei finished speaking, Chen Yang nodded slowly,
Tesla has developed a set of systems for ten years before it can be used in mass-produced vehicles. If he does the same, the day lily will be cold, let alone become the leader of new energy vehicles.
Boss Jia is the most typical example. He insisted on developing his own power system, and finally the power solution developed by himself was recognized. There are really new energy vehicle companies looking for him to purchase.
But the future is gone,
Isn’t it stupid to sell cars, but you have to sell scientific research results to survive?
Chen Yang nodded lightly, agreed with Gao Lei’s words, and then smiled,
“Then, do you have a goal?”
“Have,”
Gao Lei said seriously, “Shangqi has a very good cooperative relationship with GM. I visit GM headquarters every year and know their technology very well.
In fact, in the past ten years from the 1990s to the present, electric vehicle technology has not been greatly improved, and many technologies at that time are not outdated now.
I think that GM’s technical reserves in electric systems still have a lot to offer.
The best way is to be able to buy all their related patents, and then we will conduct research and development on the basis of these patented technologies, which can save a lot of time and capital costs.
If they are really unwilling to sell, they have to get their patent authorization,
In this regard, I am confident. “
This is the benefit of finding a big cow in the industry,
The reason why big cows are good is not only their technology, but also their team, contacts, and even financial advantages.
Joining forces is to make a bigger cause,
If any boss regards Daniel as an ordinary worker, it is a big mistake.
Boss Chen is obviously not this kind of person.
Originally, he attached great importance to Gao Lei, but now that he is the driving force behind FF Auto, it is even more serious.
Not to mention being able to stand shoulder to shoulder with Huang Shan and Qin Yu, well, this is completely impossible, these two started their friendship from Wei Mo to cooperate with each other to make money, and it cannot be replaced by anyone else.
But it is also more important than Zhou Daoen, Dai Shouliang and others.
It can be counted as a partner level.
Chen Yang pondered for two seconds, then turned his head to Huang Shan and said, “Our people cooperate with Mr. Gao, can we directly buy their technical patents?”
Huang Shan frowned slightly, thought for a while, then turned to Qin Yu and smiled,
Although the company’s M&A team is under Huang Shan’s command, it is the United States, Miss Qin’s land,
Besides, Rainbow Investment Bank has related businesses, so of course this kind of good opportunity should be given to Ms. Qin.
Qin Yu gave her a vague look, took a sip from the teacup, and then said to Gao Lei, “When will the acquisition application be initiated?”
Gao Lei thought for a while and said, “I need to prepare some materials and manpower, and it will take time to register a company. The soonest, half a month later.”
He has a lot of dealings with GM, and a lot of information is backed up, just find it out and sort it out.
As for manpower,
Which big cow hasn’t had a group of subordinates follow him. Since he is leaving Shangqi, it is estimated that at least 80% of the subordinates in the original team will follow him. Those who don’t want to leave are either newcomers or those who are planning to retire of,
Anyone who is ambitious will not stay there. This is not a job. You used to work with Boss Gao. Now that another boss is on the stage, will he still use you?
Especially in a powerful enterprise like Shangqi, the most indispensable thing is people.
Qin Yu nodded and said,
“Half a month is fine. Anyway, the people on my side are not celebrating the Spring Festival. Later, you will be in charge of technology, and I will be in charge of public relations. It will be no problem to buy their electric drive system.”
Just over a month ago, the CEOs of the “Big Three” of the American auto industry, General Motors, Ford, and Chrysler, gathered in Congress to attend a hearing, with the aim of trying to get Congress to approve $25 billion in financial assistance.
Now they are really not ordinary short of money,
Well, especially bonuses for executives,
If the Rainbow Investment Bank represents the newly established automobile company and initiates an action to acquire the power system from GM, then, based on Qin Yu’s understanding of those executives who fly to the poor in private jets, they will not mind, and use a bunch of completely useless Use the backward technology that can only be left in the database to eat ashes, and go to build a relationship with the popular fried chicken Rainbow Group,
So, the final result is probably,
Automobile companies get the power system technology they want, and GM earns a little pocket money. At the same time, it discusses the possibility of in-depth cooperation with Rainbow Group, such as issuing a large amount of bonds, or privately issuing shares. Rainbow Investment Bank can also use this Develop a super big client.
According to Boss Chen’s economic development speculation, Qin Yu is not worried that GM will go bankrupt at all,
That being the case, when other peers are afraid of the “Big Three” like snakes and scorpions, it is reasonable for the Rainbow Group to take advantage of it!
Hey, so it seems that the dividends brought by the subprime mortgage crisis have not been exhausted yet.
While Qin Yu was daydreaming alone, Gao Lei looked at her calmly, smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, and stopped discussing this topic,
The president of the Rainbow Group of America has personally acted, so there should be no problem with this matter!
After pondering for two seconds, he looked at Boss Chen again, and said seriously,
“Chen Dong, since we have reached a cooperation intention, I would like to communicate with you about the company’s future development direction.”
“Um,”
Chen Yang nodded, and while pressing the button to add water to the teapot, he looked at him and said, “You say.”
Gao Lei pondered for a while, sorted out his thoughts, and then said,
“First, let me say the car itself,
In order to achieve automotive mobility, two technologies need to be used. First, you need automotive technology, which must be powered by electricity. “
Chen Yang leaned back, leaned on the back of the chair, nodded and said with a smile, “Of course, as you said just now, first purchase the battery system and electric drive system from outside, and the target has already been selected.
After completing the acquisition, we will conduct independent research and development on this basis, and strive to create a world-class, even the top electric drive system. “
“Yes,”
Gao Lei looked at Boss Chen and said sternly, “The cars we designed are aimed at the high-end market. Since we are going to be in the high-end market, we must use the highest-end technology so that our technology can be compared with any other company.”
After a pause, he emphasized again, emphasizing,
“What I’m talking about is not just a start-up, we’re going to go to a point in the future where we can compare it to Audi, or even BMW, Mercedes and Porsche,
These top car companies have unimaginable technical reserves. If one day they also release the electric drive system, I hope we can talk about power density and power range and tell the world that Faraday Future has the most advanced technology available. Technology,
This one, I hope can become the core goal of the company. “
Chen Yang thought for a while, then nodded slightly, looked at him and said, “Technology is paramount, I agree with this point, there is no problem.”
Gao Lei smiled. He was not surprised by Boss Chen’s answer.
After all, the examples of Damai and Zhanrui are there. It is impossible for him to be more stingy with the most important new energy vehicles.
Otherwise, it would not be possible to invest 10 billion U.S. dollars all at once.
What is the use of giving so much money?
There is no doubt that the biggest destination of this huge sum of money is to build a super car production base, and the rest must be invested in research and development.
Gao Lei is already imagining what this world-class super car research and development center will look like.
Or, it will be called the Wolf’s Castle of the East,
However, Gao Lei hopes that one day, it will surpass Wolfsburg and become a holy place in the hearts of car enthusiasts all over the world. He is willing to fight for this goal for life.
Taking a breath and calming down his slightly excited mood, Gao Lei took a sip from his teacup and continued,
“What we want to build is not only a new energy vehicle, but also a smart car. This smart car has various highly intelligent functions, especially the human-machine interconnection.
If we want to create such a connected car, if we want to create a specific Internet living space in this car, then we need connectivity in the car, that is, high-speed communication capabilities, screens, and operating systems. The need for a digital ecosystem,
and everything related. “
After a pause, Gao Lei looked at Boss Chen with a serious face, and had little energy to worry about the three people next to him.
he said,
“Many entrepreneurs, especially founders, hope that all the functions of their products will be developed by their own companies.
Everything that customers can touch is the company’s own products,”
Having said that, he suddenly paused, picked up his mobile phone on the table again, and said,
“For example, Damai’s mobile phone has its own operating system and hardware, and the chip is also independently developed by Zhanrui.
Even the software in the mobile phone has a large part of its own.
This will give customers a very deep impression, that is, Barley is omnipotent! “
Taking a breath, Gao Lei put down his phone, looked at the four people who were all staring at him, and said seriously,
“However, from a certain point of view, both the mobile phone itself and the software installed in it can be regarded as electronic and related products. I don’t know if there is any problem with this?”
“Well,”
Chen Yang thought for a while and smiled, “It’s a little problem, but it’s not important, you can just say what you think.”
He really wants to explain that Damai does not produce everything in its own mobile phone. For example, the lens of the camera in the mobile phone can only be purchased from outside.
But these are not important, he probably understands what Gao Lei means.
Hearing what Boss Chen said, Gao Lei smiled embarrassedly, but didn’t explain much, and continued,
“My idea is that the new car company should not do everything, just make cars, and leave the other links to professional people!”
Hearing this, Chen Yang nodded secretly in his heart, and it was as expected as he had guessed.
Then he picked up the teacup and took a sip, looked at him and said with a smile,
“Mr. Gao, you mean that the core business of this new car company should focus on the car itself, especially the key power drive system.
As for those human-computer interaction systems and various intelligent programs, will they be handed over to other professional companies? “
“Yes,”
Gao Lei nodded seriously and said,
“I generally divide cars into two attributes. One is the mechanical attribute, including various auxiliary systems and power systems, which are also classified under this attribute.
The other parts of human-computer interaction and vehicle intelligent system are attributed to electronic properties, and this part should belong to software and computer.”
He raised his hands and gestured, “Actually, this will divide the future automobile industry into two parts.
One is the car itself, which needs no further explanation.
The other, I think, will be a new type of company that will be a provider of mobile service systems for cars,
This type of supplier will provide a complete automotive ecosystem for the car, just like Damai’s Hongmeng system, which is intelligent, Internet-based, and social. Through an in-vehicle system, it is equipped with software that many car owners are interested in.
These software can be freely selected by them, and eventually become part of the car. “
Having said that, Gao Lei paused, looked at Boss Chen solemnly, and said,
“However, this part is not what I am good at,
So, if you think this part should also be included in the company, like Damai, to create a full ecological closed loop, then I need an expert in this field to be in charge of the entire vehicle intelligent system project,
Or, I suggest, just spin off this part, not included in the assets of this company,
Barley, a subsidiary of Rainbow Group, has the strength to undertake this project~www.mtlnovel.com~ I think this is the best choice. “
When his voice fell, Chen Yang put his hands down, looked at him, pondered for two seconds, and said,
“I see what you mean, your idea is that this car company, it’s better to focus on the car itself,
As for the part about the intelligent system, it will be handed over to a professional company. Whether it is barley or others, Faraday Future only needs to put forward the demand and then purchase it. “
“Yes,”
Gao Lei nodded, and said seriously, “I think this is the most efficient way,”
He turned his head and looked at Huang Shan, and said with a smile, “I don’t rule out that if one day, our Faraday Future achieves great success, the company has a large scale and perfect management,
At that time, maybe I will propose to buy this project back to make up for this shortcoming.
But for now, I think it’s for the best if we all want this car to hit the market as soon as possible. “
Chen Yang pursed his lips and nodded lightly, turned to look at Huang Shan, and said with a smile, “President Shan, what do you think?”
Huang Shan pondered for a while, raised her head and smiled,
“This is very simple. Rainbow Valley Capital and Damai Communications cooperate to invest in an automotive system company, specializing in building a super automotive electronics ecosystem.
Whether it is the current in-vehicle system, human-computer interaction, or future driverless driving, it is the research scope of this company.
Moreover, the developed products can not only be supplied to Faraday Future, but also to other car manufacturers, which serves multiple purposes! “
