Rebirth 2004: I can make money by writing.

Night came,

Hao Qiang returned to the Ersha Island villa and had dinner with Qiu Yuqing and Han Qingying.

After dinner, the three of them drank tea and chatted on the sofa.

Qiu Yuqing noticed that Hao Qiang and Han Qingying were in a good mood, and asked with a smile: "Brother Qiang, how are the new car reservations today?"

Hao Qiang replied with a smile: "Currently, online reservations have exceeded 4,000 vehicles, which is a good result. We just have to wait and see how the data from the direct-operated stores is."

"Wow, a directly-operated store must be even better. After all, it's in a first-tier city. So, the total bookings must have exceeded 10,000!" Qiu Yuqing said in surprise, "Doesn't that mean sales are around 40 to 50 billion yuan?"

Hao Qiang nodded happily: "Well, if the pre-order reaches 10,000 vehicles, it will far exceed the target of 8,000 vehicles."

Seeing the two ladies' happy expressions, he thought for a moment and added, "Pre-orders are only an initial success. Next, we need to stabilize sales and ensure that users do not encounter accidents due to vehicle quality issues.

Only when the total sales volume reaches more than 100,000 vehicles can the investment cost be recovered.

This is quite difficult. Last year, Mercedes-Benz only sold 3.87 vehicles in the country."

Qiu Yuqing said with relief: "Brother Qiang, no matter what, our country finally has a self-developed mid-to-high-end car brand."

"Well, it's indeed worth celebrating." Hao Qiang smiled and kissed Qiu Yuqing lightly, then turned his head and kissed Han Qingying.

This made the two girls very happy.

The night deepens and the autumn air becomes clear and crisp.

Hao Qiang was lying at the head of the bed, hugging Qiu Yuqing on his left and Han Qingying on his right.

The three of them are very close and enjoy a rare warm moment.

Today Hao Qiang was in great spirits and could not bear it any longer, so he started doing the ninth set of radio gymnastics.

The two women blushed.

This was their second experience and it was so embarrassing.

Last time I was confused, this time, huh, this bad guy is really bad.

However, thinking that Hao Qiang had worked hard during this period, the two women agreed to his request.

Afterwards, Hao Qiang lay there listlessly, chatting with the two ladies.

“I’m thinking of buying a yacht and mooring it at Pengcheng Wharf so I can enjoy the sea breeze whenever I have free time.

It's about 70 or 80 kilometers from the Yuecheng factory. If the yacht is fast enough, it might be more convenient than driving." Hao Qiang suddenly had an idea.

Qiu Yuqing immediately agreed: "Brother Qiang, this is a good idea. You really should learn to enjoy life properly."

Han Qingying also echoed softly: "Yes, don't exhaust yourself, you need to have a balance between work and life."

"That's right, I'm exhausted from all the torment you two have done tonight."

"Hmph, blame us. It's all your fault." Qiu Yuqing patted Hao Qiang's chest.

"That's right, messing around." Han Qingying said, "Once he got started, this bad guy couldn't stop."

When Hao Qiang was criticized by the two women, he just smiled and did not refute.

The next day,

Hao Qiang took a car to the company.

In the car, his secretary, Pan Lewei, reported yesterday's performance to him: "Chairman, yesterday's online reservations for 4615 cars, and 12085 cars were reserved by 100 directly-operated stores, for a total of 16700 cars. The standard future ES6 accounted for about 80%."

Hao Qiang was slightly surprised: "Oh, a lot more than I expected."

He thought about it for a moment and calculated the sales volume.

78.156 million yuan.

If we include the small number of people who choose personalized configuration, the estimated amount is 78.5 billion yuan.

"Yes, after our company made the booking data public, many media outlets reported on it. I guess our peers were shocked." Seeing the chairman's rare smile, Pan Lewei also showed a hearty smile.

Hao Qiang smiled easily and said, "This is just the beginning. I'll keep an eye on the sales and feedback from car owners in the coming months."

"Okay." Pan Lewei replied respectfully, "Chairman, are you going to the Pengcheng factory today?"

"I'm not going today. I have some work to do in the EDA software lab." Hao Qiang shook his head and then asked, "How is the wafer fab construction going?"

"I visited the site the day before yesterday and discussed it with the project manager. After four months of construction, the main building is about 40% complete."

"Well, this road is not easy to walk on." Hao Qiang nodded and sighed.

Wafers are semi-processed products made by cutting the raw material single crystal rod.

The wafer manufacturing process is not complicated, but it is not simple either, and the requirements are very strict.

The manufacturing process is generally as follows: sand (deoxidized sand) → silicon dioxide → silicon purification → polysilicon melting → rotation and stretching out single crystal silicon → single crystal silicon rod → silicon material grinding and polishing (machining) → cutting into wafers (machining)

Wafer purity requirement: above 99.999%

In news reports, we often hear several 9s, which refer to the purity of the wafer.

The required equipment mainly includes: arc furnace, quartz crucible, graphite heater, single crystal furnace (key), filtering device, water conveying equipment, slicer, etc.

In fact, the core is the single crystal furnace.

As for the rest, Future Technology Group has the ability to develop them and they are not complicated.

Pan Lewei saw the chairman sigh and fell silent, not wanting to disturb him.

The man in front of me, who is younger than me, bears too much pressure.

That's the semiconductor industry that even the country is afraid of.

Maybe you invest hundreds of billions of yuan and spend more than ten years, but there may not be any response.

However, there are too many miraculous things that happened to Hao Qiang.

Maybe he can really create a miracle.

……

Pengcheng, Biyadi headquarters.

Wang Chuanfu received the pre-sale report of Future Auto yesterday early in the morning.

"16700 cars, that's fucking awesome, that's Mercedes-Benz's sales for half a year!" Even the usually gentle Wang Chuanfu couldn't help but swear.

Think about your company’s pure electric vehicles, which can’t be sold!

Oh, that’s such a huge blow.

The price has dropped below 300,000 yuan, but it still can't be sold.

However, after seeing the future ES6 car, Wang Chuanfu realized that there was a huge gap between his own electric car and future cars.

The appearance is not comparable, there are many levels behind.

Intelligent, but feels like a country bumpkin.

Damn, can we call that smart technology?

Driving comfort is also incomparable.

Wang Chuanfu stared at the data "16700 vehicles" for nearly half an hour.

I fell silent and fell into self-doubt.

He sighed and quickly convened a high-level meeting.

At the meeting, the senior executives saw that Wang Chuanfu had a heavy face and roughly knew what was going on.

Wang Chuanfu put down the cup in his hand heavily on the conference table, and then sat down heavily on the chair like a weak person.

"Yesterday, the pre-sale results for Future Auto were released: 16700 vehicles!" Wang Chuanfu said earnestly. "For the new energy vehicle industry, this is good news. It shows that this path is viable and we are not on the wrong track.

But compared with our own situation, it is not optimistic.

Well, this result makes everyone more sober.

I feel that there is really no comparison between our F3DM and the e6."

His words left the on-site management speechless.

The e6's initial product positioning was mainly for the taxi and official vehicle markets, rather than individual consumers.

After all, the price of e6 is relatively too high, 300,000 yuan, which directly limits market demand.

Apart from the government buying some symbolic amounts, no one else is buying!

Competing car companies all disdain it and are too lazy to research it.

In addition to the above factors, the severe shortage of public charging facilities has also affected the popularization of electric vehicles.

But senior executives believe that the main factor is that the price is too high.

No, the car is too ugly.

The other configurations are not very good.

Look at the future ES6. It has a higher price, but its sales are good. The main reason is not the pricing, but other factors.

Before the ES6 is released in the future, everyone feels that their own e6 is pretty good.

But after seeing the future ES6,

Damn, there's a world of difference.

Wang Chuanfu saw that everyone was silent and patted the table: "Everyone, let's think about how we will proceed in the future.

The new energy vehicle market is huge. If Future Technology Group can go for it, there is no reason why we can't.

Everyone should speak freely, don't just use nice words, talk about the problem, and have a solution."

Next, everyone took turns discussing.

More than an hour later, Wang Chuanfu looked at the time and it was almost eleven o'clock.

After thinking about it for a moment, I called Hao Qiang to celebrate with him.

"Mr. Hao, congratulations! The new car is a big hit."

"It's okay. It's worth celebrating only when the investment capital comes back." Hao Qiang's voice soon came from the other end of the phone.

"Mr. Hao is too modest. We really need to ask for your experience." Wang Chuanfu said with a forced smile on his face, but he was actually in pain inside.

"Mr. Wang, let's communicate with each other. We are still new here."

Wang Chuanfu took a deep breath and decided to get straight to the point: "Mr. Hao, your company has made outstanding achievements in advanced driver assistance system sensors and independently developed vehicle systems, which is precisely our shortcoming.

I wonder if there is any opportunity to cooperate with your company?"

"Of course no problem. We can discuss it in detail when we meet. I also plan to discuss with you the standard of charging port." Hao Qiang replied. As long as the money is enough, everything can be discussed.

When Wang Chuanfu heard Hao Qiang agreed, he said happily, "Okay, let's make an appointment."

After chatting for a while, he hung up the phone.

He wants to cooperate, but he has to be prepared to bleed heavily.
