Chapter 686

The establishment of Weilai automobile, or the news that Huizhong wants to build a car, has been put into the domestic Internet industry and domestic automobile industry like a bomb.

On November 30, the last day of November, several venture capital fund leaders, including Yanjing International Convention Center, Fang Zhe, President Lei, Li Bin, Li Xiang, and Hillhouse capital, who jointly invested in the establishment of Weilai automobile, appeared at the press conference of Weilai's Establishment Ceremony.

The whole conference hall was filled with guests invited to attend the Establishment Ceremony of Weilai.

In addition to the media and journalists, there are also some guests, including senior executives and representatives from the supply chain of the automotive industry, including senior executives of Ningde era, a leading automotive battery enterprise, enterprise representatives of Fuyao Group, a famous Michelin tire company, etc. basically, they involve representatives of suppliers for the manufacture of an automobile, All appeared at the press conference.

At 10 a.m., the press conference officially began. After the host made a simple opening speech, several core sponsors of Weilai were invited to speak on the stage one by one.

The first person invited to play was Li Bin, the chairman of e-car.com and the CEO of Weilai automobile.

Although Huizhong is the largest shareholder of Weilai, Li Bin is the largest individual shareholder and the real first initiator of Weilai. After Li Bin came to power, he talked about his relationship with Huizhong and Weilai:

"More than ten years ago, since I founded the auto media website e-car.com, I quietly planted the seeds of wanting to build a car by myself. It's just how difficult and naive it is for an ordinary person like me who wants money and resources.

For more than ten years, although e-car.com has become bigger and even listed, I have realized financial freedom, but this money and resources are still a little insufficient for car making.

I was very confused at that time. Can't ordinary people like me be able to build cars in my life?

Later, I learned about Tesla and musk. To be honest, I think I am very similar to musk in some aspects. We all want to build cars, but we don't have enough money and resources, so what should we do?

Musk has given me a good demonstration and example. Tesla has hovered on the edge of bankruptcy countless times, but relying on Musk's persistence and fate everywhere, Tesla has finally achieved what it is now.

Although Tesla still hasn't turned losses into profits, I and many people in the industry believe that the spring of the intelligent electric vehicle industry represented by Tesla is coming, which is also the reason why we set up Weilai to make intelligent electric vehicles.

So later, like musk, I looked around for people who were interested in investing money and resources and cooperating with me to make cars. I met many friends in the auto industry. As soon as they heard that I wanted to make cars, they shook their heads and said that I was stupid. I wanted to make cars with my ability? I'm afraid I'll lose my underpants!

So many people directly refused to cooperate with me, and some expressed interest, but the premise is that I find enough resources, or to put it bluntly, the premise is that I find a rich financier who can pay for my car dream!

Money! Gold master! You can guess the next story. In terms of money and gold master, I'm afraid no one in the world can compare with Huizhong. Moreover, Huizhong also invested in Tesla a a few years ago, which shows that Huizhong is optimistic about the intelligent electric vehicle industry.

Therefore, with the introduction of my friends, I met President Fang.

The first time I met President Fang was at an exchange meeting in the Internet industry last autumn. At that time, president Fang took 20 minutes to meet me.

What I didn't expect is that this short 20 minutes decided the establishment of Weilai today.

I still remember when Fang always smiled and said to me, "do you want to build a car? I'll help you!"

It was this short sentence. I almost burst into tears at that time. I still remember it vividly. I'm afraid president Fang doesn't know how long I waited for this sentence.

In this way, I cooperated with president Fang and Huizhong. Later, with the participation of president Fang and Huizhong, other partners came one after another. Over the past year, we have prepared a lot of things for car building, or earlier. Since I wanted to build a car, we have prepared a lot of things for car building.

Including what car to build, how to build a car, from market positioning, user needs, to supply chain cooperation, the company's development planning, and even after-sales service, we have enough thinking and preparation. The time for a press conference is far from enough for us to show these things

Here you are, so let me pick a few key points to tell you.

First of all, why is Wei Lai called Wei Lai? A very common word of Wei is blue. Blue sky is a sentence we often describe the good weather. However, with the development of the times, industrial pollution, automobile emission pollution and other environmental pollution problems, the word Wei Lan is getting farther and farther away from us.

Therefore, the first meaning of Wei Lai is to hope that the blue sky will come again. The second comes from, both coming and coming. A common group word is the future.

The future is not yet happening, it is advanced. Therefore, the second meaning of Wei is to hope that Wei Lai can represent the advanced nature of future cars and become the representatives of future automobiles.

Meet Wei Lai and foresee the future!

We hope that the birth of Weilai will enable consumers to see the future. "

Li Bin on the stage talked freely. Today's Weilai establishment press conference, he is one of the absolute protagonists.

After Li Bin stepped down, today's second absolute protagonist came on stage. He is Fang Zhe, who has been long expected by many media and guests.

The media and guests present are not so much concerned about Li Bin and Wei Lai as they are more concerned about why Fang Zhe, the young world's richest man, participated in the establishment of Wei Lai and why Huizhong built a car?

As Li Bin said, who cares about Li Bin's dream of building a car if Fang Zhe and Huizhong didn't join, many partners and various multimedia and guests under the stage?

Fang zhe came to the stage with a faint smile. After a short opening speech enlivened the atmosphere, Fang zhe said:

"Just now, President Li has briefly introduced Xia Weilai to you. I have told you what to say and what not to say. I'm just here to give you a few words.

I think the media and guests on the scene must have many people wondering why Huizhong and I should personally participate in the car making. I am here today to respond and tell you that I make cars because I am optimistic about this industry and the future potential of intelligent electric vehicles. It's that simple.

In addition, I would also like to disclose to the media two very important time frames, one is two years and the other is four years.

Before today, two years later, that is, before November 30, 2016, Weilai must make the first sample vehicle. Before today, four years later, that is, before November 30, 2018, Weilai's commercial vehicles for consumers must achieve mass production! "

WOW!

The reporters at the scene were in an uproar!
