Chapter 270: You think you can’t hang street lights, right?

“Selling to enterprises? Like BAIC and Jiangling helping Baidu manufacture their Carrot Run?” Lin Jia asked.

As one of Baidu’s core partners in the field of driverless driving, Lin Jia is very familiar with the situation of Carrot Run.

Including their operating costs, pressure from all aspects, conditions required for technology maturity, etc., including Lu Qi, the head of artificial intelligence of Guangjia Aerospace, from Baidu.

It can be said that Lu Qi is the founder of Baidu’s driverless driving. In 2017, Baidu integrated its resources and established an intelligent driving business group. It was Lu Qi who was the CEO of Baidu Group at the time. Also serves as the general manager of this business group.

Lin Jia is also very clear about Baidu's capabilities in driverless driving, how far it can go, and the key time points for its internal settings in the future.

Lin Qinghua said: "Yes, it is such a cooperation model. Of course I know that it is not easy to sell cars directly. The domestic new energy market is multi-volume, unless it has the technology, resources and market like your Space." .

When I was talking to them about building cars, they all teased me and said that instead of working with them, I should just go to your daughter and invest in Space directly. As for spending so much money, Are you thinking too much?" Lin Qinghua said jokingly.

Chen Yuanguang quickly made up for it: "Dad Lin, I can give you some investment shares, if you are interested."

Before Chen Yuanguang finished speaking, Lin Jia took a picture of him then looked at Lin Qinghua and said: "Dad, don't count on Space, there are so many people watching."

Lin Qinghua said quickly: "Of course, if I had this hope, I wouldn't be able to discuss cooperation with them in detail.

What I'm saying is that my daughter already has shares, so I won't get involved.

What Lao Ma said at that time was that we should learn from Huawei's approach. To develop driverless cars in China, we still have to pay attention to cost-effectiveness. Only the ultimate cost-effectiveness can win the market.

If it is based on 200,000 yuan. The cost of building a car is too high.

We have to reduce the cost to less than 100,000, focusing on the most comfortable autonomous driving at this price. >


Because when driving a car for others, you have to pay attention to the handling and chassis quality. There are many things to pay attention to.

For driverless cars, you don’t need to think so much. You only need to consider safety, cost, depreciation speed, and passenger experience.

So we are discussing that we should build cars specifically for driverless driving. Wuling has already asked Huawei to cooperate. Leapmotor is also a cost-effective new energy source, so we specially called Zhu Ming. We will contribute the money and he will contribute. , form a game.

Everyone is very interested, because Alibaba of Lao Ma is the demand side, and then we are the producer and put it on the market.

Lao Ma has this need. For him, Alibaba Cloud has such a big platform and so much computing power. It will be huge if all domestic travel is replaced by driverless cars. of a plate.

Ali cannot afford to fail in this competition.

So Lao Ma is very determined, which means that he will lead the investment, and then Zhu Ming will be responsible for building the car, and the other brothers of us will each invest some money. ”

Lin Jia finally understood. There are not many pitfalls in this game. It’s just that Jack Ma has taken a fancy to Lin Qinghua’s relationship. If the country wants to develop unmanned driving, it cannot be separated from the light armor aerospace. If it cannot be separated, it must be used. Launching satellites into space in large quantities at low cost

This is where Lin Qinghua’s role lies.

“I also think it’s a good start. I think there’s no problem in investing, and I can learn to build cars this time. If we invest, then maybe next time we will have the opportunity to build a factory ourselves to supply Alibaba.

I think the reason for looking for Zhu Ming this time is because none of us have ever built a car, and we need someone with experience to operate and manage it. He is also a Zhejiang businessman, and everyone is in the same circle and can be trusted.

But once Alibaba gains the leading position in the entire market, their needs cannot be met by one company.

Even if Baidu is only targeting the first- and second-tier markets now and has turned to Jiangling and BAIC, Alibaba will definitely look for other companies to enter the market in the future. Won’t my opportunity come?

After that meal, I met and chatted with Lao Ma when I returned to Hangzhou. I probed his tone, and it was indeed the same as I guessed.

He said that we two buddies can open another company in the future. We will start by recycling second-hand cars on the market, then transform them into new energy vehicles, and slowly expand this business.

These eliminated Didi drivers will definitely have to find other jobs as the online ride-hailing market continues to shrink. Many of them will choose to get rid of the online ride-hailing services. We will specifically collect these online ride-hailing services at ultra-low prices. Come back, then transform into a driverless car and run on the road.

After you become proficient in this business, you can then consider buying a car manufacturing license and start building cars.

Lao Ma is thoughtful about this issue. "After Lin Qinghua finished speaking, he sighed again and again.

Lin Jia was unable to complain. She just asked: "Dad, Lao Ma should have been hung from the street lights a long time ago. He is not afraid, and you are not afraid of being hung from the street lights. ? "

"The previous one, you want to build a car with them, I have no objection. I think this is a good project. Baidu needs to transform, and Alibaba also needs to transform. Artificial intelligence itself is also an area that Alibaba has been investing in."

Autonomous driving is equally important to Alibaba. There are buyers and manufacturers, and you can make money by entering.

It is nothing more than the difference between earning more and earning less.

The business that Jackma discussed with you later became a public opinion, and it was no different than seeking death.

Doesn’t this mean that you are eyeing someone’s corpse before the ride-hailing service is completely dead?

Jack Ma’s previous public opinion turmoil on the Bund has not completely passed. Now he has to focus on other people’s jobs. Artificial intelligence has smashed other people’s jobs. Jack Ma is dragging you with him to kill others. Pick up the broken rice bowl and put it together, and then go to the automation to find food.

When the time comes to wait and see the second fermentation of public opinion, why does he look for you instead of someone else? Don't think that when there is a risk of public opinion, you are Yuan Guang's father-in-law, and the superiors will turn a blind eye and help him suppress the risk of public opinion in this matter.

Don't do this next thing. If you do it, if something happens, I will ask Yuan Guang to go to the superiors and tell you how to handle it. Don't take care of you for his sake. ”

On hearing this, Lin Qinghua understood Lao Ma’s cunning intentions. He had not thought of this before, mainly because he was eager to transform and did not realize this.

Their situation There are very few entrepreneurs of this generation who understand new media, and their understanding of public opinion is very superficial.

They only see the benefits of doing so, but they are not aware of the risks of doing so.

"Dad, you are just waiting to be used as a punching bag by the unemployed online ride-hailing drivers. It has not been long since the reorganization of Tonghua Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. led to the death of the general manager, and this has offended far more people than the workers of Tonghua Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. .

Isn’t this just a case of seeking death? The risk is too great. If I can hide in Tokyo, do you dare to go to Tokyo?

As soon as you got off the plane, the Tokyo inspection team sent you to Hawaii to bask in the sun, think about it." Lin Jia was extremely speechless.

What she didn’t say is that for China, they don’t mind using this kind of corporate sacrificial flag to alleviate the grievances of the unemployed. They don’t know what to do. Isn’t this just a target? ?

Chen Yuanguang can save him in the official physical sense, but he will die socially, and Chen Yuanguang cannot save him from the unemployed online ride-hailing driver.

After returning to his room to rest, Lin Jia sighed: "I am getting older, and my mind is no longer clear.

My dad is the same, why are you always thinking about transformation?"

Chen Yuanguang said: "You are not Are his friends around him transforming? Everyone is doing this. If he doesn't do this, he will naturally feel nervous. Over the years, China's business has been ups and downs. No industry is always a sunrise industry, and everyone has to do it. Facing an existential crisis.

The downturn in real estate affects not only the real estate itself, but also the entire upstream and downstream industry chain.

White home appliances are also affected. Gree is making mobile phones and entering new energy. Isn't it also struggling? Midea first made small household appliances, and then acquired robotics companies to enter the robotics industry.

The leading real estate companies are also undergoing transformation. Evergrande is building cars, selling Evergrande Ice Spring, and running a financial management company. It has been struggling.

In such an environment, it is normal for your dad to want to transform.

He must also hope that we can provide him with some help, but after thinking about it, it is true that he is not suitable for the industries that light armor companies are involved in. ”

Lin Jia provided Lin Qinghua with information about the upstream and downstream potential enterprises of Guangjia Aerospace with Chen Yuanguang’s permission. Chen Yuanguang was not so selfless that he did not allow those around him to gain some benefits.

Even Chen Yuanguang is very willing to give some benefits to the people around him within the scope allowed by the rules.

Some relatives like Chen's mother who move around frequently hope that he can help find a job. He will not be placed in Guangjia Aerospace, but will also help find Chinese officials to arrange for a relatively good state-owned enterprise.

Of course, I have done my best by sending it in, and we will not provide any more convenience.

The same goes for Lin Qinghua. He doesn't help because he really doesn't expect the other party to be able to do commercial aerospace, photovoltaics, semiconductors, or new energy.

You don’t even have the talent accumulation in this area. Wouldn’t you be seeking death if you rush in?

"Well, I will advise him. Lao Ma is not a good person. He gave my father such a bad idea.

Making money is making money. I believe this business will definitely make money, but the more you make, the more you will be scolded. Ruthless.

There must be a lot of people watching this business across the country. You and Lao Ma have swallowed this piece of cake and are waiting to be fucked.

He. He can travel to Neon, Lion City, or any country in Southeast Asia, but my father can only stay in China. Wherever he goes, he will be taken away by Amerikan.

This is not pure poaching. A trap?" Lin Jia said angrily.

This is the reality. The giants of China are always unwilling to let go of any residue. Because China is too large and has too many people, even a little residue multiplied by a huge number is a big piece of cake.

There are 10 million online ride-hailing drivers in the country. After the entire job shrinks, taking a 20% ratio to calculate, 2 million online ride-hailing vehicles are facing disposal. It is unrealistic for drivers to have demand for driving after changing careers.

This 2 million online car-hailing deal, even if the recycling price of a single unit is 10,000 and the selling price is 20,000, this is a 20 billion business.

Not to mention, they are doing renovation, the renovation cost is 10,000, and after the renovation, selling for 50,000 is not too much?

This cake is very tempting, even a simple calculation is enough.

Not to mention, the car-making business derived from it.

Jack Ma is naturally very aware of the risks involved. The risk of public opinion is the biggest risk when eating this cake, not to mention that Alibaba is also doing self-driving, and Alibaba is also one of the giants that has taken away the jobs of online ride-hailing drivers. one.

The front step is to steal someone else's job, and the back step is to use a few coins to take away the job from the other party. If you don't die, who will die?

In order not to die, to minimize the impact and let the gods agree that he would eat this cake, what Lao Ma thought of was to ask Lin Qinghua to help endorse it. He happened to be in the Zhejiang Merchants Association. He heard more than once that Lin Qinghua was eager to transformation.

Within the Zhejiang Entrepreneurs Association, there are many people who are unhappy with Lin Qinghua. Everyone has been having such a hard time in the past few years. Why can you invest in three listed companies? With a 15% listing probability, among the remaining 17 companies, how many are likely to go public.

Isn't it because of your relationship with your daughter that you can know about these good projects in advance?

Lao Ma only needs to bring the topic to this aspect, and these people will naturally spit out everything they know about Lin Qinghua.

Lin Qinghua wanted to transform, and Lao Ma wanted to take the cake. The cooperation between the two hit it off.

Both parties naturally have a basis for cooperation.

In the villa in Hangzhou, Lao Ma looked at the excited Lin Qinghua and smiled happily. Without you, I would not dare to eat this cake.

Lin Qinghua thought it was Lao Ma who promoted him, but in fact it was him who created opportunities for Lao Ma.

"This is what the old fox is like." Chen Yuanguang said.

Lin Jia sighed, she also understood that she could not do anything about Ali, because they were not in the same field as Ali at all, and it was impossible to do e-commerce or online payment, "I will talk to my dad tomorrow.

Let him give up."

Chen Yuanguang said: "You have a better attitude. The old man didn't expect this to be normal."

Lin Jia said: "Don't I have a bad attitude?

If I really had any ideas, I should have encouraged the old man to send his illegitimate son to Maple Leaf Country and wait for the United States to extradite him back to America. After I came to China, I pretended to feel sorry for my half-brother in public.

Look at how the United States punished him.

I was kind enough and did not use this method. Deal with Lao Deng.”

That’s true. Lin Jia was aware of Amerikan’s targeting of them long before Room Temperature Superconductivity.

Since the establishment of Guangjia Aerospace, special persons have been able to find out something almost every month.

This group of people leaked information through various methods.

Afterwards, Guangjia Aerospace did not dare to recruit anyone who had immediate family members overseas, because it was worried that the probability of problems with such immediate family members being overseas was too high.

When they recruited astronauts in the second half of last year, the first thing they checked was whether they had overseas background, because they were afraid that you would come up and cause sabotage.
