Technology company, I will become the light of China!

"Ah? 7 minutes? It only takes 7 minutes to fully charge 200 kWh?"

"No, what's the concept of 200 kWh? I am a single male and I only use more than 200 kWh of electricity a month. It can fully charge a 200 kWh lithium battery in 7 minutes?"

"Let's be honest. Even if a fuel car is going to refuel for 1,600 kilometers, it will take nearly three or four minutes. New energy vehicles have no shortcomings at all!"

"What do you say in those four words?"

"Far ahead!"

"Far ahead!"

When Chen Xing said the charging time of the "Thor Battery", not only the audience was boiling, but also tens of millions of viewers who watched the live broadcast online shouted "Wow".

The most criticized points of new energy vehicles have always been two points, slow charging time and safety.

Now that the charging time is only 7 minutes, who dares to say that charging is slow?

Looking at the deep red LED screen with the eye-catching Arabic number 7, Masick and other foreign car company CEOs were completely silent.

7 minutes of charging, 1,600 kilometers of running, solid-state batteries can really do whatever they want!

Chen Hong, the CEO of SAIC Group, finally couldn't hold it anymore and said in a lost voice: "1,600 kilometers in 7 minutes, Chen Xing is not impacting the automobile market, but digging the roots of the automobile market!"

When he said this, other CEOs nodded in agreement.

Do you think he is here to grab market share?

No!

He is here to dig roots!

Based on the parameters and functions currently displayed, no car company in the world can come up with it alone.

Toyota Group and BMW Group dare to say that they can come up with a 2000 MPa body structure, but they dare not say that they can come up with an L3 unmanned intelligent driving system and solid-state batteries. This is the foundation of patented technology.

"Far ahead!"

"Far ahead!"

"Far ahead!"

The audience at the press conference was loud and uniform, and collectively shouted the slogan of Longxing Group that has become popular all over the Internet and is also the most classic slogan.

After 30 seconds, when the audience had almost vented their emotions, Chen Xing pressed his hand and continued: "In addition to the fast charging time, our Thor battery is also extremely safe, reaching an unprecedented level. I rate this level as X."

As soon as he finished speaking, he continued: "In order to let everyone see its safety more intuitively, we prepared a field test."

"Another field test? Chen Xing, what else are you going to do???"

At this moment, Masike's breathing was almost stagnant. Now he just wanted Chen Xing to end the press conference quickly and not bring them any more "scares".

Under the gaze of everyone, an excavator with the words Longguo Infrastructure Group written on the body and equipped with a split rock wall slowly drove over.

"Fuck! Pangolin excavator!"

"Not simple, not simple, the moment this excavator appeared, I knew that man was going to make trouble again!"

"You are not going to tear open the Linghang 001, right? No, give it to me, Mr. Chen, we will not question your battery!"

"Too real, brother, this is Chen Xing's press conference, walking the way of the black man, leaving the black man with no way to go, four words, far ahead!"

"Mr. Chen is awesome, far ahead!!!"

The front wall of the split rock wall excavator is no longer a funnel, but a huge "steel needle" that can efficiently break the rock wall. It is a special engineering machinery.

Its sudden appearance made all the guests in the stands exclaim. BYD CEO Wang Fu was stunned for a few seconds, then looked at Lei Jun and said, "Don't tell me, just test the safety of the battery on the spot?"

"Yes." Lei Jun did not deny it, and smiled and said, "It is our responsibility to dispel the concerns of car owners about new energy vehicles."

Since the concept of new energy vehicles has just become popular and there are no related vehicles in China, the concerns about lithium batteries on the Internet have never stopped.

In order to dispel the concerns of car owners, Linghang 001, as the first new energy vehicle listed in Longguo, naturally has to set a good example.

"The split rock wall excavator, its appearance must have made everyone guess what we are going to do. That's right, it is to do steel needle puncture of the whole vehicle, simulating the situation of our vehicle being hit and highly damaged!"

"Wow——"

As soon as Chen Xing finished speaking, there was an uproar at the scene.

Although they all guessed what was going to be done, everyone was shocked when they really heard Chen Xing say it.

In other companies' press conferences, they would hide it if possible, and try to trick users into placing orders first.

But Chen Xing's press conference is not a game of tricks. The advantages and disadvantages of the products and actual performance tests are all brought to the table for you to make. This is because he has extremely high confidence in his own products. Other companies can't imitate it.

Facing the surprise, Chen Xing reminded: "Again, this test is dangerous and is carried out in a closed area. Don't imitate it."

As soon as he finished speaking, he looked at the excavator of the split rock wall that had arrived and the fire brigade responsible for extinguishing the fire, and said in a deep voice: "All departments, get ready. I will count down to ten and start testing the polymer semi-solid battery first."

"Ten!"

"Nine!"

"Eight!"

Chen Xing's countdown sounded throughout the venue.

The excavator of the split rock wall lifted the front wall, and the thick steel needle was placed on the roof of the standard version of the pilot 001.

"Click, click, click--"

The reporters pressed the shutter frantically, trying to capture the most exciting moment.

"Everyone, step back a little, step back a little." The security team shouted at the reporters and photographers who were pushing forward.

Who said that both batteries had been tested for safety, but that was done in an internal field, and no one knew whether they would explode.

"Three!"

"Two!"

"One!"

Chen Xing finally raised his voice, and everyone stopped breathing and their hearts rose to their throats when he said "one".

If this "violent test" passes, then the Pilot 001 will no longer have any shortcomings, because the safety is maximized.

"Clang--"

The front wall of the excavator touched the roof, and the top skylight glass shattered directly.

The huge steel needle did not stop at all, and continued to extend into the car. It penetrated the chassis steel of the vehicle and went straight to the battery pack.

"Why hasn't the director cut the screen yet? I don't dare to watch it anymore!"

"I've squinted my eyes."

"It won't explode, right? With such a big thing stuck in it, I don't think even fuel vehicles can withstand it. New energy vehicles are powered by lithium batteries!"

"I finally understand why the police officers in bomb disposal TV shows sweat. My palms are sweating even when I watch from a distance."

The close-up images provided by several cameras in the car not only make the audience feel like they are in the scene, but also make them sweat.

If it exploded directly, everyone would probably be shocked.

"The lithium battery module is the one that penetrated the protection of the alloy steel plate." Chen Xing continued to look at the real-time picture on the LED screen.

The next second.

"Bang--"

The steel needle penetrated the alloy steel plate and pierced the battery module fiercely.

"Zizizi--"

The thick smoke visible to the naked eye came out.

But what no one expected was that the polymer lithium battery only smoked and did not spontaneously combust.

"Increase the force."

Chen Xing directed the excavator master.

The mechanical arm swung forward, leaving a 1-shaped mark on the battery pack, and thick smoke entered the car through the gap, instantly filling the entire interior space.

"It didn't spontaneously combust?" Zeng Yu, the CEO of CATL, couldn't hold it anymore and stood up.

He tolerated the all-solid-state battery, but this semi-solid-state battery can actually not spontaneously combust. Isn't this too outrageous?

BYD CEO Wang Fu, SAIC Group CEO Chen Hong, GAC Group CEO Zeng Hong, as well as BMW Group CEO Nagel, Mercedes-Benz Group CEO Olaf Wright, and Audi Group CEO Dusma were all silent.

Lithium batteries are not safe?

People directly conduct hardcore tests.

The steel needles of the split rock wall excavator did not spontaneously combust and explode, so who dares to say that new energy vehicles are unsafe?

"Perfect, impeccable!"

Luo Hao has decided that the Pilot 001 will be his means of transportation in the future. Rolls-Royce and Maybach are weak. The Pilot 001 is the real god.

Duan Yongping, who was standing beside him, looked amazed and touched his chin, saying, "It is indeed impeccable and basically meets my car-buying conditions, but this car should not be cheap."

Safety, endurance, and appearance are all full. In his opinion, coupes of this level all start at the million-level, and can be compared with BMW's M4.

"No, it's very cheap."

Ren Guofei suddenly spoke.

"Very cheap?" BYD CEO Wang Fu couldn't hold it anymore and asked quickly, "CEO Ren, please don't tell me it's less than 500,000. Isn't that a bit too exaggerated?"

The parameters and configurations displayed by the current Linghang 001 are already the configurations of a million-level fuel vehicle. If the price is less than 500,000, it will really overturn the table.

"Do we think it's cheap, or do ordinary people think it's cheap?" CATL CEO Zeng Yu also wanted to know the answer in advance and asked quickly.

For entrepreneurs like them, who doesn't have tens of billions of cash in their pockets? There are many people with tens of billions.

Let alone a 1 million yuan car, even a 10 million yuan car is just a "sprinkle of water" for top corporate CEOs like Ren Guofei, Lei Jun, and Wang Fu.

Now Zeng Yu wants to know which group this cheap price corresponds to.

Luo Hao and Duan Yongping are also curious. They don't want the Linghang 001 to be cheap from the bottom of their hearts, because cheap means that there are many users who buy it, which will not reflect their status.

Why do rich people like luxury goods?

Let's not talk about whether it is good or not, what people pursue is a sense of superiority.

"Maybe you don't believe it, the cheap price I'm talking about is for ordinary people, you will know it later."

Ren Guofei still chose to keep it a secret.

"That's right." At this time, Lei Jun smiled and echoed: "When the price is announced, I will apologize to all friendly companies on behalf of Chen Xing. We have no intention of fighting a price war with you, but we have reasons to fight."

Wang Fu: "..."

Zeng Hong: "..."

Chen Hong: "..."

Are you kidding us?

I have no intention of starting a price war. I think you are here to make trouble on purpose!

The CEOs of the rival companies were all very confused. The information revealed by Lei Jun and Ren Guofei had already shown that the price of Linghang 001 would not be too high. It might be a price that ordinary people could afford with a little effort.

"It's on fire!"

Suddenly, someone shouted.

The CEOs who were still immersed in the price speculation raised their heads and looked at Linghang 001 in the distance. The original white smoke had turned into black smoke, and flames began to emerge.

Chen Xing on the podium was not surprised by this, but explained: "Lithium batteries are severely impacted, deformation, damage and spontaneous combustion are inevitable. This is because the energy stored in the battery needs to be released, and the instability of lithium ions themselves makes combustion almost 100%."

"However!" Chen Xing changed the subject and looked at the burning vehicle and said: "Our new barrier material can effectively prolong the time of spontaneous combustion, buying time for passengers and drivers in the car to escape."

"According to our internal tests, if ordinary lithium batteries experience a major accident, causing the battery pack to be severely deformed, it only takes 30 seconds to engulf the entire car, while our polymer semi-solid lithium battery, it takes 5 minutes from extrusion deformation to complete spontaneous combustion."

"It is worth noting here that if you want the battery pack of Linghang 001 to be severely deformed, it is as difficult as being sandwiched by two semi-trailers, because the strength of our body steel structure is 2000 MPa, please rest assured."

When Chen Xing was talking, the Linghang 001 car was already engulfed in flames.

"Pa Pa Pa——"

The applause at the scene was thunderous and continuous.

The audience in the live broadcast room looked at the burning vehicle and not only did not feel the danger, but also had their own opinions.

"Five minutes of escape time is not short. The key is that Mr. Chen also said that there are few car accidents that can penetrate lithium battery packs."

"Although I don't understand lithium batteries, I understand the concept of 2000 MPa body steel structure. Just buy it and it's done!"

"Semi-solid batteries are so awesome, I don't know what the full solid-state battery is like."

"I will buy it directly within 1 million. I'm not bragging. The main reason is that I like unmanned automatic driving. I'm tired enough at work, and I don't want to drive after work."

"It turns out that heroes think alike. It takes 30 minutes from my home to the company, and it takes 1 hour to go back and forth to and from get off work. If someone drives for me, I can do other things in the free time."

As the press conference progressed in an orderly manner, the voices of black fans have become smaller and smaller, and the owners of fuel vehicles have gradually become silent.

They originally thought that new energy vehicles would charge very slowly, but it turned out to be 20 minutes, and the fastest even took only 7 minutes.

They also thought that new energy vehicles were unsafe and that lithium batteries would spontaneously combust and explode in a car accident. As a result, they not only upgraded the structural strength of the vehicle, but also upgraded the lithium battery, leaving a full 5 minutes of escape time.

It can save money, it can be safe, and the key is that it is very smart, which makes the "conservative" fuel car owners waver and think about whether to buy a new energy car.

As the "behind-the-scenes pusher" for buying volume, Yao Nana immediately communicated with Weibo operations again when the Internet trend changed.

After a while.

The entry "Hardcore Test of Lithium Battery of Pilot 001" was on the hot search list, and a large number of marketing accounts immediately followed up.

Under the overwhelming publicity, the group of online car-hailing drivers was the first to waver.

…

Guangfu Tianhe.

A free parking lot.

Full-time Didi driver Lin Jiafeng and several full-time drivers watched the live broadcast of "Pilot 001 Press Conference" and talked to each other.

"Fuck you, it didn't explode even in this test. How can I afford such high-quality materials?"

"Wow! I can't stand it. If I use this car to run online ride-hailing, won't I make a fortune?"

"850 kilometers, 72 yuan for fuel. If I use this car to run online ride-hailing, I can only say that it's better than Azhen in Tianshang Renjian!"

As a new profession in recent years, online ride-hailing drivers are in an upward period. Didi and other taxi apps are subsidizing users crazily.

For online ride-hailing drivers, there is no need to talk about cars. As long as they save money, that is the biggest temptation.

"What do you say, brother Lin? Do you want to bite your teeth and play with the whole new energy car?"

Lin Jiafeng pinched out the cigarette butt, smiled and asked back: "850 kilometers, 72 yuan, how can you let me refuse?"

For the group who live by cars, they know cars better than those who play with cars.

But they also have concerns, that is the pricing of Linghang 001. If it is less than 400,000, it is okay, but if it is more than 400,000, it will be a bit difficult to get.

At first, it was the online taxi drivers, followed by ordinary drivers who were commuting and buying groceries. They all began to gradually accept new energy vehicles.

The second-hand car dealers watched the live broadcast and began to waver.

The shortcomings that were originally thought to be solved by Linghang 001 were basically solved, but the advantages that existed were really hard to refuse.

…

Shencheng International Racing Circuit.

After burning for a while, the team responsible for extinguishing the fire came forward to put out the fire.

When the open flames were extinguished, the vehicle had become charred, and the whole audience could smell a pungent burning smell.

It burned for so long, which was also deliberately done by Chen Xing in order to let the audience see the specific burning time of the vehicle.

"The standard version of Linghang 001 has been tested. This data should be qualified, right?" Chen Xing spoke again and continued: "The following is the exclusive version of Linghang 001, which is equipped with sulfide Thor batteries."

As soon as the voice fell.

A Linghang 001 drove into the test area.

Correspondingly, the charred Linghang 001 was loaded and towed away.

As the charred Pilot 001 was towed away, Chen Xing continued to explain: "Although we are going to destroy two cars today, environmentalists please rest assured that we will not waste any resources. The main aluminum alloy structure of the vehicle can be melted and recycled, and then integrated into a die-casting to make a new car."

For ordinary people, scrap iron may be just a piece of scrap metal.

But for recycling companies, this is a business of buying low and selling high.

For example, rusted scrap iron is no longer useful, but when it is given to recycling companies, they have equipment to melt it, and the original scrap iron will be brand new and double its value.

This is why many garbage recycling stations and recycling companies make a lot of money by reselling.

After towing away the charred Linghang 001, the staff also drove the exclusive version of Linghang 001 to the original test area, and then quickly set up the camera and got out of the car.

Chen Xing on the podium pressed the remote control and switched the PPT page while explaining: "Because the Thor battery is all solid, there is no electrolyte inside, there is no electrolyte leakage, and spontaneous combustion, explosion and other phenomena will naturally not occur."

"Words are not enough."

"We practice the truth."

The voice fell.

The excavator excavated the split rock wall.

It still broke the skylight and went straight through the entire body of the car, but this time there was no reaction at all, not even white smoke.

Just like last time, the excavator master pushed forward, and the front wall left a deep groove in the shape of a letter "1" on the body of the premium version of the pilot 001.

"Really no spontaneous combustion?"

"No way, is it so safe?"

"Doesn't that mean that the premium version of new energy vehicles is safer than fuel vehicles?"

"It's really far ahead!"

Applause and cheers rang out again at the scene. No one expected that solid-state batteries were so outrageous. Not only was the energy density high, but the key was that they didn't have electrolytes, so they wouldn't leak and cause spontaneous combustion.

Facing the cheers, Chen Xing spoke again: "For safety, our new energy vehicles have an advantage, that is, the whole body sealing is far better than fuel vehicles. You don't have to worry about leakage. When wading, we have more advantages!"

"Awesome!!!"

"Mr. Chen is awesome!!!"

"This is a car, damn!!!"

"Far ahead!!!"

The cheers at the scene were deafening. Chen Xing's words "more advantages" tore off the last fig leaf of the fuel vehicle.

Save more money than you.

Safer than you.

Smarter than you.

How can fuel vehicles compete?

"I think we need to make changes while we still have brand advantages." BMW Group CEO Nagel said in a deep voice.

He did not mention the technical advantages, but mentioned the brand advantages.

This sentence has already shown his idea, that is, he thinks that the BMW Group can no longer beat Longxing Group in terms of technology, and must make a brand premium.

For example, some time ago, the online comments on Linghang Automobile said:

I drive a BMW, BMW will speak for me, you drive a Linghang car, you need to speak for Linghang Automobile.

There is no doubt that this sentence reflects the brand value.

The so-called brand value is actually a premium, just like luxury goods, what you buy is face, not the configuration of the car.

"I think I know why Longguo allowed Japanese car companies to leave. It turns out that they want to vigorously develop new energy vehicles." Mercedes-Benz Group CEO Olaf Leiter said in a deep voice.

"If we don't change, we may be eliminated." Audi Group CEO Dusmai had a very complicated look in his eyes and issued a final reminder to the friendly business beside him.

There is no enduring enterprise in this world. Even the former British Empire can only be inferior to others now.

If you don't change, you will die!

Listening to the reminders of several car company CEOs, Honda Group President Otaki Ikki looked at Toyota Group President Saikawa Takahiro. The latter was originally staring at the pilot 001 in the distance. After noticing something strange, he looked in the direction and the two made eye contact.

Worry.

Fear.

Helplessness.

No one expected that in just a few decades, Longguo's heavy industry would develop so rapidly. Not only did they build cars by themselves, but they also built cars that they couldn't find fault with.

If Otaki Ikki and Saikawa Takahiro were worried, frightened and helpless, then Renato Marotta on the other side of the ocean showed a look of fear in his eyes.

As we all know, Longguo is the only country in the world that covers all industrial types. What does it mean specifically?

Let's just say that high-end products may not work, but Longguo can be completely self-sufficient in mid- and low-end industrial products.

For example, the ballpoint pen refill steel balls that the public intellectuals boasted about at the time, saying that only the island country in the world could produce them, and that they were high-end technology products.

As a result, the engineers of Taigang Group looked at the design drawings and thought they were not complicated, so they tried to make a furnace. This test not only brought down the price of ballpoint pens, but also caused the island country's ballpoint pen refill steel ball companies to go bankrupt.

"Alas!"

Renato Marotta sighed.

He could no longer describe his feelings at the moment. If time could be turned back, he would definitely use all means to target Longxing Group when it was still in its infancy!

Compared with Renato Marotta's regret, Clayton, the patriarch of the Rothschild family, who wanted to use finance to blow up Longguo, was even more worried.

He looked at Chen Xing in the live broadcast screen and sighed, "What should we do if Longguo's industry is made high-end?"
