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

Chapter 612: Hiding the details in every detail
But in fact, Zi Xiaowei still gave specific change indicators, an incredible selling point.

"The biggest feature of the two first-released models of Gaohe is the door design. Both cars adopt a double-door design. This gimmick is good, but it was cancelled in the third car. We should dig deeper into this selling point. For example, our coupe should move towards a single-door design..."

The design team was a little noisy, but they held themselves back and thought it was more polite to listen before speaking.

Because the single-door model undoubtedly has the flavor of a sports car, this type of car is basically not available in the country at present.

Although the CEOs of all private car companies have this dream in their hearts, they all know that it is impossible to achieve it.

There is basically no sports car culture in China. Those who clamor for the development of domestic sports cars are almost all keyboard warriors who will not pay for such cars.

The practicality of buying a car with only two front seats is unimaginably low, and it is almost rejected by the vast majority of consumers. How can we talk about market acceptance and sales?
Even overseas brands that have two or three models that take the single-door, civilian route all fail miserably in the domestic market.

As expected, Zi Xiaowei had a good plan: "It's precisely our double doors that can be disguised as a single door. The rear door can take up only one-quarter of the area, while the front door takes up three-quarters. Normally, the rear door is invisible, but when opened, the full side entry and exit space is absolutely no less than that of a regular double-door. This way, young consumers can enjoy the unique feeling of this car being a sports car most of the time, but transforming into a sedan when necessary."

As he spoke, he gestured at the mecha-style coupe.

It seems that if you just cut the rear door in half vertically to give it to the front door, and then flatten the rear door and hide it in the rear of the car, it will become a low-lying and domineering sports car, and that "supercar flavor" will come out.

The audience froze for a moment, then quickly split into two camps: "Interesting. While there's some overlap in price, there's further differentiation in user preferences. It's a compromise for sports cars entering the consumer market..."

"The Toyota FJ Cruiser has this design, it's great!"

"Let me remind you that FJ Cruiser sales aren't great."

Zi Xiaowei joined the discussion with a smile: "Before we joined the marketing, Ella Auto's cute cat was also a rather unusual small car with a good appearance, and it didn't sell well. But remember the sales method of online live streaming. It is to extract and screen out those niche consumers through the infinite breadth of the mobile internet. This is a brand-new approach that no other marketing model can achieve. It is not difficult to find tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of niche consumers among tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of consumers."

Some designers and developers are already impatiently touching the things at hand to record their ideas.

The other group immediately asked, "What about the B-pillar? If you move the doors back, will the B-pillar also move back? How small will the rear door be? If it doesn't move back, getting in and out will be affected. If you remove the B-pillar, how can safety be guaranteed?"

The diagonal pillar next to the windshield is called the A-pillar, the vertical pillar between the front and rear rows is the B-pillar, and the one at the rear of the car is called the C. In theory, these three metal pillars support the spatial safety of the entire roof frame.

Although they are almost useless when sliding under a truck or being crushed by heavy objects, these three pillars certainly protect lives in most cases and are the focus of testing for various vehicle safety standards.

Very few cars have the B-pillar removed.

That means the roof arch is entirely supported by the AC, and if it is pressed or overturned in the middle, the space inside the car will be squeezed out, which can be very life-threatening.

So even the Cullinan at home with front and rear doors has a middle B-pillar for support.

And the simplest logic is that when this pair of doors is opened and closed, there must be a rooted lock hanging point.

But Zi Xiaowei didn't even need to explain at this point, as other design and development teams had already argued: "We can build the B-pillar reinforcement ribs into the front edge of the rear door. When the door is opened, it must be in park, so it doesn't matter whether there is a B-pillar or not. Sports cars don't have B-pillars. But when the door is closed, the rear door becomes the B-pillar, which actually strengthens it!"

As for the door locks, they can be rooted in the heaven and earth, just like many anti-theft doors and safe door designs. In the eyes of designers, this is not a problem.

In fact, automobiles have been developed for hundreds of years, and various forms have been proposed long ago. At present, they are highly similar, just like smartphones are all the same.

Quite boring.

These strange and bizarre models were also everywhere decades ago, and the experience of predecessors was readily available.

Many people became excited and couldn't wait to start designing.

Those people around who were not in the automotive industry could all see the waves rolling like boiling water, and they all whispered to each other, saying that this young man was quite something, and it looked like Gaohe Automobile would indeed have a new look.

Brother Qiang nodded slowly and proudly: "Jingxi Industry will fully support these fantastic ideas. This is innovation, an industrial selling point that can rise in China and then sweep the world!"

Mr. Zhang, who has become the mascot of the emperor, was a little absent-minded. He looked at the young person in charge, and then at the generally young design and development team. It seemed as if he saw the figure of the powerful liar again, who was always full of energy and vitality and showed his youthfulness.

That's all pretense. This is where the real youthfulness comes from.

With the calm and relaxed demeanor of a lecturer, he said, "This is your job. Remember, pure electric vehicles have changed many ways of playing. Many ideas that were once rejected can be re-imagined with a new perspective. I hope this is a car I can brag about as a young person's first sports car, a dad's car, their first love car, and their first car for traveling the world..."

It is overflowing with the youthful madness that makes young designers scream!

When a niche becomes mainstream, one has to compromise and become neither fish nor fowl.

But Zi Xiaowei offered another approach, even magnifying the key features while using other cunning methods to compensate. A team leader is someone who can point out this abstract direction, leaving the rest to the specifics.

This feeling is the most enlightening.

Several veteran Shanghai Automotive Group executives, as well as relevant state-owned enterprise leaders in Shanghai, could not help but nod their heads: "Young people leading a young brand is indeed very energetic!"

Mr. Zhang also added: "The key is unquestionable strength!"

That's right, as a former Bachelor of Arts in Chinese, now a Bachelor of Landscape Architecture and Horticulture, and a Postgraduate of Social Science and Public Administration, Zi Xiaowei can make decisions in engineering because of his outstanding achievements.

Even when he met Lao Chang for the first time, he dared to boast that he would guarantee the production of 10,000 vehicles. Wasn't it because he had the financial strength from selling underwear?

Only when you have money can you afford to make mistakes.

So when Zi Xiaowei's finger finally landed on the six-seater SUV that his family also owned, he felt incredibly familiar with it. "Later, the entire design and development team will adjust their grouping. They can either form two working groups based on the two cars, or cross-group the various parts into R&D groups. Whoever will be responsible for leadership and assignments can submit their proposals to me in the group. Each member can also privately report any R&D ideas they have. But please don't bother me about personnel authority management. I won't waste my precious energy on bullshit office politics. Anyone who plays that game in front of me can get out immediately. Now, let's talk about this car..."

Although the presence of this bear anchor is nowhere to be seen in terms of equity and position.

But from this moment on, he has established indisputable command authority.

Well, it does resemble the sense of authority a teacher can establish in the classroom.

Chang Yueling whispered in Dai Anni's ear: "Sister, I believe that his growth to this point must be due to your contribution."

Unexpectedly, Plastic Flower didn't take credit for it: "It's hard to say. The most I can say is that I forced him not to hide in the pile of books. Congratulations on gaining the pillar of the family business."

Chang Yueling hesitated but finally gave in. She wasn't a strong person to begin with. "Actually, do you see how much he cares about that family business? It's better to say he's a bit idealistic. I think it would be better if everyone in the family worked together to hold him back. Otherwise, there would be so many car companies tempting him to explore. Who knows, one of them might even bring in someone of the right age and marriageable age?"

Dai Anni chuckled: "You have come to this day, how is the second princess now?"

Susanna said angrily: "I heard she left the crew. Didn't you join the group to guide her internet celebrity videos? It seems that they haven't added WeChat and are in contact."

Dai Anni was even more amused: "Hey, who said before that we shouldn't add WeChat?"

Ruth had no choice but to put her arm around him and beg for mercy: "Alright, alright, my flag of being honest and upright has failed. Please come to the wedding and help me check my pulse."

Dai Anni was also a go-getter, humming and not actually resisting. "In the end, Ting Baobao sneaked in and beat them to the punch. I think we can hold a wedding somewhere during the Spring Festival, just with the whole family together."

Chang Yueling quickly said: "We are also helping you gain experience."

Diane was completely amused: "If the vixen has a wedding in the end, will we all be considered as foreshadowing?"

Chang Yueling suddenly had the urge to trade the vixen away.

The bourgeoisie is so hypocritical and heartless.

But in the end, I felt that doing these things before my wedding would cause too many variables, and the key was to rely on the two big sisters to restrain them, so I endured it.

Qiang's wife was on the other side of her the whole time, secretly watching the affectionate sisters over here, and the even more intimate and harmonious internet celebrity duo in the distance. It was hard to imagine the atmosphere of this family.

Who paid attention to Zi Xiaowei's clear and concise comments on the R&D team from front to back, from outside to inside.

It is precisely because he has driven a large number of luxury cars and almost all high-quality new energy vehicles that he has a deep impression of these earliest new energy vehicles in the family.

Especially the regret for Gaohe, which was once the top luxury mass-produced car in China.

It can be said that this is the first domestically produced luxury car that has truly gained market recognition. Selling thousands of units at a price of 600,000 yuan is actually very impressive.

Even though it is on the verge of bankruptcy, there has never been any bad reviews of this car itself in the market. It was cobbled together and produced all over the place, and objectively there have been no major mistakes. The evaluation from all parties is that the car is indeed capable.

This is the biggest reason why Zi Xiaowei is willing to stand here.

Even if he and Brother Qiang have to invest more than billions of dollars to promote Nirvana and rebirth.
