In order to live in seclusion, I tricked my roommate into falling in love.

Chapter 316 Not Suitable for Children
Zi Xiaowei himself was surprised.

The last time I came here with Lao Chang, I didn’t feel this way. Maybe I didn’t know where the land was when I drove past here, so I never had such an “artificial bird’s-eye view”.

Now you can see the surroundings very clearly from the viaduct.

stunned.

After hearing Gao Tingting's voice, he came back to his senses and gestured to her: "That long and thin factory area that looks like an airport runway is Boss Chang's new factory. Only when you stand in front of such a super factory, you will realize how insignificant people are..."

Then he pointed to another piece of land a few kilometers away and said, "That's the car factory that's far ahead. Isn't it much smaller?"

Gao Tingting was holding Mei Duo and moaning, and the little aunt actually went to pull at the guardrail of the overpass.

Zi Xiaowei's ambition frightened him, and he reached out to hug her and moved away from the fence. "Look over there, the largest factory is Jiang'an Automobile, covering about four or five square kilometers. It's the largest in this area. We used to call Jiangzhou a "Ten-mile Steel City," but the actual factory area is actually smaller than here."

Gao Tingting also reached out to hold his arm, trying to look as far as possible, hoping to keep up with the thinking of her life mentor.

She is such a good student.

So Zi Xiaowei also taught him carefully: "Actually, these days, when I'm often squatting among the flowers and plants, I imagine that it's a big deal, just like ants burrowing in a pile of dirt. Look at the factories, roads, and vehicles in front of you. Don't they look like ants, plants, and vines in the dirt?"

The freshman girl covered her mouth in surprise, otherwise she would have screamed out.

It really is that magical.

Is this what we call vision and height?
He pointed to the sky with great spirit and said, "Above the human world, it seems there are also two gardeners' hands busy harvesting?"

Zi Xiaowei was satisfied with her thinking. "Jiang'an Automobile is a state-owned enterprise and has received the most support. You might not be aware that the big mouth from "Far Ahead" has been touting how amazing this super factory is that's just begun construction. But if you look at the area, it's probably less than one-tenth the size of Jiang'an's. Even the Pulse factory that will be producing our nanny cars in the future is several times larger than theirs."

Gao Tingting noted: "Jiangan Auto's Evita sales haven't been very good in the past two months since the Spring Festival."

Zi Xiaowei took it for granted: "State-owned enterprises are used to ensure direction. When it comes to market competition and operational efficiency, private enterprises are far superior in every way. This is why, after working with them once or twice, I no longer want to work with state-owned enterprises. They have too many non-market factors. So the real competition is in these far-leading automakers, which only have a fraction of the market share."

Holding Mei Duo, he returned to the car behind him and said, "Look at this car computer. Isn't it very similar to the mobile phones we use? I can sense the huge ambition here. It is definitely not just a mediocre car like the current one. With this car computer, it is far ahead of the others."

He reached out and beckoned the video crew's photographer over to discuss the matter. "I'd like to do a time-lapse of the entire construction site. They told me it takes about a year from the construction of the entire factory to the final production of the products. Could we create a fast-forward shot of the passage of time, day and night, spanning a year?"

The team members, who were actually still university students, nodded quickly. "We can definitely do it. Just choose a fixed camera position, shoot at a fixed time and location, and then connect the images together."

Then let’s go and look for the most suitable location around the construction site.

Gao Tingting naturally sat beside them holding Mei Duo, listening to Zi Xiaowei and the filming team finding the location, and also listened to their comments on this city SUV with a very ordinary chassis.

In the past six months, Zi Xiaowei and the video team have indeed tested and driven quite a few cars, and their feelings are really average.

This is where Zi Xiaowei's vigilance stems from: "I've seen several leading voices recently describing their Gigafactory, describing how smart and high-end it is. But after driving the car, do you think it's just that? Either they're bragging, or they're planning something big."

He pointed to the foldable phone lying on the wireless charger. "This is the most expensive mass-produced phone ever made in China. Despite the national pride suppressed by European and American blockades, it's selling incredibly well among the middle class, which has the strongest spending power. Tingting, do you remember? Everyone from teachers to parents at our training center rushed to buy it, regardless of the price. Of course, the phone's high-end features justify the price."

Gao Tingting could already catch up with his thoughts: "Do the new cars they have here deserve this kind of top grade?"

Zi Xiaowei nodded slowly. "This sense of national pride is their greatest advantage, and they've used it brilliantly. They've even easily surpassed the premium prices of high-end cars that Jiang'an Automobile desperately sought to surpass... This car, with a price tag of over 300,000 yuan, actually sold for significantly more than the Evita before our livestream. This is a real slap in the face to Jiang'an."

Gao Tingting was a little nervous. "Are you targeting Yaoyaoying? I heard you can't say anything bad about her or you'll get scolded to death, especially the anchor..."

Zi Xiaowei laughed. "Although this is a bit contradictory, it's certainly intentional. Market competition shouldn't be forced by moral constraints. I definitely hope that domestic new energy vehicles will excel overall, rather than one dominant player. Constantly suppressing others to grab market share isn't a good habit. Some of Lao Chang's lackeys love to bring up this kind of foolish move. New energy vehicles love to pull down others, but it's thanks to us that they've stopped it."

Just test the vehicle.

Huang Yongjian and his team got into the NIO driven by Zhizhi, inspected the construction site entrance, and then went in to do some preliminary measurements and soil collection.

Zi Xiaowei and the video team drove the Leading No. 7 on the hillside opposite the Pulse factory to try off-roading on an unpaved road, and also looked for a time-lapse shooting position.

Although this thing can capture the most stunning aerial photos, it cannot guarantee the precise positioning of the camera. As a result, as it climbed the rugged hillside with difficulty, this new energy vehicle still revealed its ordinary four-wheel drive system released in San Francisco in 2018.

Anyway, it made Zi Xiaowei, the marketing director who has been frequently testing the four-wheel drive systems of various high-end cars recently, laugh.

Compared with the new car manufacturers such as NIO, Lixiang, and HiPhi, they even seem plain and unpretentious.

At least these companies have never boasted about their off-road performance, and they all focus on elegant urban style.

The promotional methods of Leading No. 7 are just like their mobile phones, which must be far ahead in all aspects.

Therefore, the actual situation of the vehicle, which claims to have the best chassis quality in its class, is a bit confusing when compared with the technology of Changjiang Automobile, which has been developing off-road vehicles for 20 to 30 years.

It is really thanks to that simple sense of pride as a moat that all car companies are a little unsure how to evaluate this new entrant with all kinds of original slogans.

Words like "aspiring to be a million-dollar luxury car" and "the best chassis quality in its class" are all specious exaggerations.

It sounds awesome at first, but upon closer inspection, there are no specific indicators.

Several members of the video team and Zi Xiaowei are quite familiar with these recently popular car models and gimmicks, and they all have fun taking turns driving them.

Some people looked through the phone to find information and saw it. Once someone was serious about it, someone would come out to sympathize with the brother. Both the phone and the car were put under extreme conditions for testing and comparison.

But who told you to do this kind of publicity?

Do other brands and manufacturers deserve to be market losers?
Zi Xiaowei, who was trying to figure out how to strike the right tone in the live broadcast room, was speechless. No wonder Lao Chang's lackeys loved to bring this up so much recently.

When Gao Tingting heard Lao Chang, she remembered the purpose of her visit today.

After sending the photographers away to select the location, he leaned in close and whispered, "Hey, it seems like you've been thinking about these big things all day long, and you've been too embarrassed to think about your own little plans."

It turned out that her elder sister-in-law had given her the green light. The freshman girl was still shy when she spoke about it: "My elder sister said... hehehe, she asked me to arrange to decorate the villa over there so that we can live together as a family."

Zi Xiaowei, who was thinking about world affairs, curled up in the back seat.

They were all stunned: "What villa compound?"

Gao Tingting gestured, "Those villas we bought over there for executives. Seventeen of them were bought before the Spring Festival, six to a group. You instructed us to tear down the middle courtyard and turn it into a large compound."

Meadow was standing nearby, nodding seriously, as if she knew what it was too.

Zi Xiaowei laughed heartily. "Pregnancy makes a woman stupid for three years. She's full of random thoughts, and you're still fooled by them? What kind of compound do you live in? Are you a feudal landlord or an imperial concubine? You're a top internet celebrity of the new era, how can you still believe in these feudal dregs? Oh, my private life is a bit messy, but it's limited to one-night stands over meals and drinks. And I still consider myself to be quite self-disciplined and haven't had any affairs."

Look at Gao Tingting showing that stereotypical expression of "I see how you made it up."

Zi Xiaowei still cut it short: "Impossible. Without further ado, your parents live there, what are you doing... Oh, I don't mean to say just avoid them, but Sister Dai has a vicious plan for you. It's absolutely impossible. Eh... Is she testing your attitude?"

Gao Tingting suddenly realized, "That's possible! Doesn't she still know Maizi's true identity?"

Zi Xiaowei laughed out loud for no apparent reason. "It was completely unrelated. You brought Maizi back to film a video. She was very panicked at the time, and then you found out... Anyway, you know what kind of person I am. Don't join in the fun. I'm really focusing all my attention on my career right now."

The little leopard was really gentle: "Yes, I know you have completely found your own direction. This is due to my contribution and that of my sister. Now that my sister is like this, I can't completely leave her behind. Maizi... I noticed that when you talked about her, there was a different kind of doting in you. I'm jealous!"

Zi Xiaowei quickly distanced himself from the issue: "There's no such thing as spoiling. It's just like that. Don't let your child overthink it!"

Gao Tingting didn't care that the children were watching from the car, she rushed over and kissed him directly: "I shouldn't have been so polite to you when school started!"

And he's tearing off clothes!

Meadow was actually cheering and shouting beside them.

How can you do this in front of a child!
