Chapter 406 The unstoppable global wave, pilot 001 road test shocked friends
“It can’t be disabled, it can’t be stopped, my God, this is simply a disaster, what on earth is TikTok?”
>
U.S. Information and Communications Administration.
Director Fritz Nunn never thought that one day he, Baley Group and Vanguard Group would not be able to block a single piece of software.
TikTok is becoming popular throughout the United States at an unimaginable speed.
For example, the number of account registrations for students from MIT, Harvard, and Stanford has been completely out of control. It is conservatively estimated that the number of registrations per day reaches 100,000.
Even if number registration is restricted, there are service providers that provide virtual number registration.
With the mentality of giving it a try, Fritz Nunn downloaded TikTok and wanted to use a critical attitude to see what magic it has, but only half an hour later, he also fell into it.
The Loli lady, with her black and white silk stockings, is dazzling, and the beauty creators from all over the world have completely caught his eye.
Video 15.
Video 20.
Video 30.
Can't stop at all.
Fritz Nunn did not notice that time was passing quickly. After his first taste was analyzed by the TikTok algorithm library, other types of videos were gradually pushed.
If they are all videos of beautiful women, aesthetic fatigue will definitely occur. TikTok’s algorithm library must analyze the types of interest in his second and third tastes.
For example, someone likes to read marginal content, but he also likes to read about pets and travel guides.
The first taste video is about beauties, the second taste is about pets, and the third taste is about travel guides. According to the algorithm, the mixed push will make diversified recommendations.
“Dong dong dong——”
It wasn’t until there was a knock on the door frame of his office that Fritz Nunn finally realized that he had been watching short videos for almost three hours.
Can you blame him?
Of course not, because there are only a few things that drive human nature.
Those who can completely refuse temptation are not ordinary people at all, but saints. Only saints can control the dark side of their hearts.
“What’s the matter?”
Fritz Nunn turned off the screen of his phone and looked at the secretary at the door.
"A large number of foreign IP networks have appeared in our country, and the number is still increasing. The bureau plans to hold a meeting to discuss this matter." The secretary said while handing over the document.
When she glanced accidentally, she found that her boss seemed to be "camping".
Watching movies secretly in the office?
Do you want to be so bohemian?
“Ahem.”
Fritz Nunn coughed twice and leaned forward, trying to cover up his embarrassment, but his actions were undoubtedly the most embarrassing. One hundred taels confirmed that the secretary was right.
"I understand. This matter does need to be discussed in a meeting. Let's go out first and we will hold an internal meeting later."
"Okay."
After the secretary responded, he immediately leave.
After the office door closed, Fritz Nunn breathed a sigh of relief, quickly adjusted his position, and then cursed secretly: "The essence of TikTok is here, no wonder young people are willing to play this "
As a country where parties last for three days and one party for seven days, partying is the favorite thing for every American student. They also especially like to make friends and invite them to parties. .
TikTok not only allows them to show themselves, but also to find handsome guys and beauties. It’s no wonder that they want to climb over the wall to play. It turns out that their instinct is driving them.
“I’m afraid this cannot be forbidden.” Fritz Nunn came up with the answer.
The mobile phones produced by Longxing Group allowed TikTok to complete its initial user accumulation. Later, TikTok brought back a large number of users to the four flagship mobile phones of Longxing Group. The two are already closed loops and there is no way to ban them.
As Renato Marotta learned the news, he fell completely silent.
Not only him, but also Lyle Valles, Pascal, Robert Seavey, and Davitch, the future successor of the Federal Reserve Bank of America, were silent.
Perhaps the Jewish consortium never imagined that it was not the Onsa consortium that broke their information cocoon, but a consortium, or group, from the East.
As the saying goes, "The one who knocks you down may not be your colleagues." No one would have thought that the person who banned firecrackers would be a balloon manufacturer that could not hit eight poles.
Since TikTok and the Longxing Group’s mobile phones were smuggled into the country, the United States really has nothing to do with them this time.
The most annoying thing is that they clearly know that a large number of Longxing Group mobile phones are smuggled into the United States, but they cannot shut down their networks.
Why is this happening?
Very simple.
The signal base station is in the sky.
Launching missiles to hit satellites?
That’s even worse.
According to the International Convention on Outer Space, any military action against satellites is regarded as a declaration of war against countries around the world.
Modern warfare is not the mechanical torrent played in the past.
Accuracy, lethality, and efficiency are what modern military forces seek.
If you want to achieve these three points, you cannot do without the assistance of satellites in the sky.
Just imagine, before a fight, someone wants to blind you, how can you counterattack accurately, fatally and efficiently?
It is precisely because of this that the International Convention on Outer Space specifically states that anyone who dares to attack satellites is declaring war on the whole world.
......
While the Jewish consortium is struggling with the "smuggling" problem, most people in the big Eastern countries have no idea that their focus is not on their mobile phones, but on their screens. On the pilot car.
Weibo information platform.
The hot search term "Encounter with Pilot 001" has been dominating the list for a full week and has basically not fallen out of the top ten.
Clicking on the hot search terms, the first thing that caught your eye was a 1 minute and 17 second video. The subject of the shooting was Pilot 001 waiting for the traffic light. The title was "Encountering Mr. Chen's Pilot 001 at the traffic light. He started very well." quick".
In the video, as the traffic light of more than 40 seconds ended, Pilot 001 ejected into the car at lightning speed. The exaggerated starting speed shocked many car reviewers.
As the first-generation car internet celebrity, Fat Brother Yang Li directly commented in the comment area and commented sharply: "The ejection start of this car is no less than that of a Porsche and a coupe. It accelerates from 0 to 100 mph, I estimate it is within eight seconds. It’s really unexpected.”
Yang Li’s fate immediately caused a sensation in the automotive industry.
Who is Yang Li?
As the first-generation automobile Internet celebrity, he not only dared to criticize the world, but even Lifan Motors was criticized by him for declining sales and going bankrupt and reorganized.
He is equivalent to Lin Xiaolong in the industry. A casual word may have a decisive effect.
Yang Li’s fate also caused the fate of well-known car critics such as Xia Xin, Chen Zhen, and Wang Gen to analyze the performance of Pilot 001.
[Xia Xin]: "Judging from the video alone, I think Linghang 001 should have an ejection starting mode. It can be preliminarily judged that it is a coupe worth more than 400,000 yuan."
[Chen Zhen]: "The car in the video is a Mercedes-Benz C-Class. As a BBA model, its starting speed is already fast enough, but in less than 2 seconds, it was thrown away by a parking space. I I think its performance range should be compared to a coupe priced at over 700,000 yuan, or even over 1 million yuan.”
[Wang Gen]: “Although it is impossible to know the specific time of its zero-hundred acceleration, through the video. It can be inferred that it has a certain degree of driving pleasure, and the appearance lines are very sporty. I personally think that it is positioned as a coupe for young people. A more detailed analysis requires more videos to support it. ”
More and more car reviewers have been killed one after another, which has also led to a wave of "capturing" pilot 001. A large number of netizens who met by chance posted their videos online and @famous car reviewers.
Urban roads.
Highway.
Long distance national highway.
National Highway 318.
A large number of videos of Linghang 001 were posted on the Weibo information platform, as well as videos of charging at charging piles.
Some users who were too busy to panic ran with Linghang 001 for a whole day, and finally found that they were out of gas, and they were still running.
The starting speed is confusing.
Zero hundred acceleration is a mystery.
Battery life is still a mystery.
This made BYD boss Wang Fuchou very upset. The performance of Pilot 001 far exceeded his imagination.
Originally, what he was thinking was, how could the three laymen of Longxing Group, Kunpeng Company, and Rice Company compare with traditional car companies?
But now!
He found that he was wrong.
Electric vehicles are not as technologically advanced as fuel vehicles, or in other words, they are not as complex as fuel vehicles.
According to Chen Xing’s original live broadcast description and BYD’s own research, Wang Fu understands the structure and principles of electric vehicles.
Simple, indeed simple. After all, it is an enlarged version of the toy car used in childhood.
It can be said to be complicated. It is really complicated. Not only does it require lithium battery technology, but also the motor, electronic control and mechanical structure need to be redesigned and overcome.
However, compared with the complexity of fuel vehicles, the "return to nature" of electric vehicles still has great advantages.
“I don’t know what age this Mercedes-Benz C-Class is, but according to previous years, it can accelerate from 100 meters to 100 meters in nine seconds. In other words, Pilot 001’s acceleration from 0 to 100 meters must be within nine seconds, or even It may reach eight seconds, or even seven seconds." After Wang Fu analyzed it himself, he picked up the phone on his desk and called his chief engineer.
Not a moment.
The call is connected.
“Boss, are you looking for me?”
“How many seconds can our tram accelerate from zero to 100?” Wang Fu asked straight to the point.
“No problem within nine seconds.”
“What about the battery life?”
“Six hundred kilometers.”
“Is it a real watch?”< br>
“The actual price is around four hundred and four.”
“Next time, let’s tell the actual price.” Wang Fu’s tone was warm and angry. He was not a consumer, so why bother talking to him? game?
"I know, boss." The chief engineer responded and changed the subject: "By the way, boss, our Qin series should be almost ready. When will you conduct a road test?"
"Oh?"
Wang Fu was stunned for half a second, obviously not expecting it to be so fast, and asked: "Did all the internal road tests pass?"
"All passed."
"Data How about it? ”
“The performance on gravel roads, bumpy roads, uphill and downhill slopes, and cornering is very good, but there is still a gap compared to Tesla, after all, we are a gasoline-electric hybrid.”
"Understood." Wang Fu silently wrote down the data, then nodded in agreement: "Contact the vice president and tell me that BYD Qin DM is ready for road testing."
"Okay The boss."
As the phone hung up, Wang Fu took out the BYD Qin DM parameters from the drawer, his face full of worry.
50-liter fuel tank, 27-kilowatt-hour battery, 154 maximum horsepower, 5200 maximum motor speed, 240 maximum torque, and acceleration from 0 to 100 rpm in 9 seconds 37.
At first glance, these parameter data are too ordinary, but no one expected that this is the brilliance of Wang Fu.
He keenly judged that Longxing Group and Tesla were going to have a big battle.
According to the models currently announced by Tesla and the road test data of Pilot 001, the two companies will compete in the range of around 300,000.
As the saying goes, when gods fight, mortals suffer.
Knowing that BYD does not have a technological advantage in the field of electric vehicles, but still rushing in, it is undoubtedly hitting an egg with an egg and hitting a stone with a stone, and it is very likely to be forced to sacrifice.
Furthermore, with the fate of Tesla and Longxing Group, the electric vehicle market has shown huge market potential. Why is Wang Fu willing not to take a bite?
After much thought, he decided to avoid the battle.
BYD Qin DM does not engage in pure electric vehicles, but a hybrid of gasoline and electricity, giving car owners room for transition, or room for acceptance.
Furthermore, he plans to price it below 150,000, avoid the mid-to-high-end market as much as possible, and focus on daily grocery shopping carts.
Exploiting strengths and avoiding weaknesses, taking share first, and then slowly deploying the business, this is Wang Fu's business philosophy, and he is also very good at making steady progress.
Contrary to Wang Fu, Chen Hong, the CEO of SAIC, watched the video that broke the news on the Internet. Not only did he not intend to avoid the fight, he also asked his engineers to pile up materials hard, and he must be "way ahead" "performance.
Not only SAIC, but also other car companies have not set their sights on the low-end model market below 150,000 yuan. They are all mid- to high-end markets.
They actually also understand that how the first electric car is priced may determine the future label of the brand.
Just like the rice company, even if it launched the Redmi sub-brand and wanted to cut off from the low-end, it still couldn't get rid of the evaluation of low-end models, which also gave Rebus a headache.
There are examples in front of us. Car companies that think they are powerful are piling up performance data, hoping to beat Tesla, step on the Longxing Group, and win the sales of electric vehicles.
……
And on the other side.
Tesla Gigafactory in Shanghai.
Masik was sitting in the office. His face looked very haggard, and his eyes showed fatigue that was visible to the naked eye.
Obviously.
He hasn't slept well in the past few days.
The reason why he didn't sleep well is very simple, that is, he seriously underestimated Longxing Group and Linghang 001 Automobile.
According to the feedback from the employees sent by Masik to follow the road test of Pilot 001, not only does the car have an actual range of more than 500 kilometers, but it can also accelerate from 100 kilometers to 100 kilometers in 7 seconds. These two points are very scary.
The actual range of 500 kilometers, you must know that it is autumn now, the weather is gradually getting cooler, and it can even be said that it is already winter temperature in the northern region.
It can still run 500 kilometers in winter. How advanced is this lithium battery?
The most outrageous thing is that the testers of Linghang 001 will not charge until the battery is completely exhausted. They may charge at 30% or 20% to ensure the battery life of the vehicle.
This means that the real battery life may reach 600 or even 700 kilometers.
Assuming a battery life of 700 kilometers, coupled with the low temperature weather, and according to the manufacturer’s promotional thinking, Linghang 001 will not be allowed to post a battery life data of 1,000 kilometers?
With a battery life of 1,000 kilometers, how can Tesla still play?
In addition to battery life, acceleration from 100 meters within 7 seconds can also reflect the overall performance of the car. At least the motor is far ahead.
The revelations on the Internet may be attributed to Tu Yile by others, but in the eyes of car company CEOs such as Wang Fu, Chen Hong, and Masike, they are no less than the Longxing Group who has shown its sword time and time again.
“How about delaying the launch?”
Masik muttered to himself.
Tesla has also been conducting road tests recently, and they have reached the final stage, and all the data are in line with his expectations.
But Chen Xing brought Pilot 001 to disrupt the situation, so he had to be cautious.
Having been in Long Country for so long, he also figured out that Chen Xing likes to strike from behind, stepping on the corpse of his opponent to stand taller.
There are only two paths before Masik, either to strike first and seize market share first, or to strike later and adjust its strategy according to the opponent's moves.
If Tesla chooses to strike preemptively, Tesla must be fast, accurate and ruthless to win over the first batch of electric vehicle users. It must also be wary of sneak attacks and targeting by its peers and competitors.
If Tesla chooses to strike later, Tesla can avoid disputes by pricing based on the performance of its peers.
For example, the Pilot 001 is priced at 400,000, and Masik feels that there is no hope of competing, so he can price his Tesla at 200,000 to avoid the opponent's offensive.
The market is the same as the class, but both have their own fixed users.
For example, for people with a monthly income of 5,000 yuan, he gritted his teeth and accepted vehicles of less than 100,000 yuan at most, and might not even be able to afford the car loan after that.
With a monthly income of 10,000 yuan, this type of person can consider a car worth around 200,000 to 300,000 yuan, but the premise is that the income is stable.
If it is an elite group with a monthly income of 100,000 yuan, it is impossible for them to drive a car worth 100,000 yuan. The money must be spent, and there is a high probability that they will choose a car with a price of more than 600,000 yuan. to show one's identity.
Each price range has corresponding market users. If car companies price the same, the two companies will have no choice but to fight each other. Only those who survive are worthy of eating the corresponding users.
So car pricing is actually about selecting target users, which is also a science.
After careful consideration, Masik decided to postpone the listing. He wanted to see what Chen Xing would do.
If he can't afford to provoke him, he can always hide, right?
……
Chen Xing, who had just arrived in the imperial capital, didn't know yet that as netizens exposed the video of the Pilot 001 road test, the bosses of various car companies were on alert, piling up materials and avoiding them, showing off their talents.
“Mr. Chen.”
In the pick-up hall, Zhang Ming shouted enthusiastically.
Since it was already December and the temperature in the imperial capital was only 6 degrees, he was also dressed very thickly. He wore a black cotton jacket and fleece pants, which looked a bit rustic.
His voice also attracted the attention of many people.
But the next second, they all looked back and started sharing their complaints with their friends.
"Both old haters, Mr. Chen is also having sex, it's so weird, haha."
"You're a kid, just playing house."
"Hey baby , Guess what, I just met two interesting people at the airport, dressed in street clothes, just playing house."
Neither Chen Xing nor Zhang Ming wanted to be too showy, they were both dressed in the same style. Wearing a black down jacket and black pants, Chen Xing also wore a hat and a mask. In order to avoid being recognized, he deliberately hunched over and thought about leaving the airport.
But he never expected that Zhang Ming's eyes could accurately identify things like clairvoyance.
"How did you recognize me?"
Chen Xing asked.
Zhang Ming smiled faintly and joked: "If I said it was intuition, would you believe it?"
"No."
Chen Xing shook his head.
"I guess you don't believe it." Zhang Ming smiled again and explained: "Being able to leave the station first means traveling in first class, plus a man with a height of 1.78 meters, just now Not many."
As soon as he finished speaking, he concluded: "To put it bluntly, the rich are not as good as you, and the poor have not yet got off the plane."
"As expected. The short video algorithm is really accurate in recognition." Chen Xing gave a thumbs up.
“That’s right.”
Zhang Ming suddenly changed the subject and asked: "Mr. Chen came to the imperial capital this time, he didn't just come to see me, right?"
"Let's talk in the car."
Chen Xing He glanced at the passengers around him.
People may not pay attention to their conversation, but if it falls into the ears of others, who can guarantee that nothing will happen?
Acting cautiously has always been Chen Xing's style of doing things.
“Follow me.”
Zhang Ming made a gesture of invitation.
"Yes." Chen Xing nodded slightly, and the two of them walked to the door side by side.
But before he took two steps, another deep and magnetic voice came.
“Is it Mr. Chen?”
The two stopped and Chen Xing looked sideways. It was Qin Long, the dean of the Academy of Dragon Science, accompanied by a guard.
“Dean Qin.”
Chen Xing responded.
The moment he heard Chen Xing's voice, Qin Long's eyes lit up and he smiled and said: "It is indeed you. I didn't dare to recognize it just now, but I dared to confirm it after seeing Zhang Ming."
"This..."
Zhang Ming was a little flattered.
Qin Long actually knows himself?
Who is Qin Long?
The president of the Imperial Dragon Academy, an absolute master in the field of scientific research!
It is no exaggeration to say that if he wants to see this old man, he will probably have to make an appointment for a few years, and he may not be able to meet him.
Qin Long knew him. Zhang Ming glanced at Chen Xing and estimated that it was probably him.
Just as Zhang Ming expected, the reason why Qin Long knew Zhang Ming was because of the "smuggling incident" currently taking place in the United States.
According to an in-depth investigation by the Long Intelligence Bureau, there are two driving forces behind the global smuggling wave. One is supplying a large number of mobile phones to the Longxing Group in Europe, that is, Chen Xing, and the other is spending money to transport mobile phones like crazy. YouTube videos, and ByteDance, which spends heavily to recruit creators to provide operations for TikTok.
The two combined forces to make the United States anxious. With Qin Long’s connections, it was impossible not to know about such a happy thing. He also took the opportunity to learn about Zhang Ming.
Chen Xing glanced at the confused Zhang Ming, then looked at Qin Long, and joked to himself: "It seems that my disguise needs to be upgraded."
"That's right. "
As soon as he finished speaking, he continued: "I thought I would go to the Academy of Dragon Science after talking to Zhang Ming, but now it seems that my schedule has changed. "
Qin. Longdu personally picked him up at the airport, so it was impossible for him to go back and wait first. This seemed to be a bit low on emotional intelligence.
Before Qin Long spoke, Zhang Ming reacted and quickly said: "You are busy, you are busy. Mr. Chen, you finish your work first. I just have something to do. I will be at the Wang Mansion tonight. Book a table and we’ll talk later.”
“Don’t bother.” Qin Long waved his hand and glanced around to make sure no one was close to eavesdrop, then said in a low voice:< br>
"Both of you are multinational enterprises and have the ability to earn foreign exchange. Today is the exchange settlement day agreed with Mao Xiong. It is just a good time to learn from experience and witness this historic moment."
