66: Chapter 66 New Technologies

"Are you sure this is the vehicle data for the shadow t1?"

Zhang Huanli spoke with some uncertainty.

At this moment, he suddenly began to doubt his secretary's professionalism.

A low-end car, 280 horsepower, and a fuel consumption of 2.45 per 100 kilometers!

What kind of international joke is this!

Even for them at Toyota, it would be impossible to bring the price down to 120,000 while producing such a car!

Even if they could build such a car, the list price would be at least 300,000!

Otherwise, it wouldn't just be a loss; it would be a bloodbath!

Under Zhang Huanli's gaze, the secretary nodded with a bitter expression.

"What the hell!"

"How are we supposed to play this?"

Zhang Huanli cursed directly, his whole body trembling uncontrollably.

If Hongqi really possesses such technology, then there's no point in even talking about Toyota.

Every single car manufacturer out there might as well quit.

Such power, such fuel economy.

Selling it for 120,000?

They would lose their shirts.

After a long while, Zhang Huanli's expression finally calmed down.

"Go, notify all of Toyota's senior management."

"Tell them I am calling for an emergency board meeting at the highest level!"

If this continues, Toyota is finished!

Zhang Huanli seemed to have already foreseen the future scenario.

He must take this war seriously!

The new energy vehicles in the xiaolong s21 series were one thing.

But the shadow t1 directly threatened Toyota's true position!

Once the shadow t1 occupies the low-end market, where will that leave Toyota?

Pack up and withdraw from Xia Country?

Measures must be taken!

A ruthless glint flashed in Zhang Huanli's eyes.

Over the next few days, the xiaolong s21 and the shadow t1 shot up like a rocket.

Their sales figures soared to the sky.

The entire market's attention was almost entirely focused on Hongqi.

This situation continued until the fourth day.

Because starting tomorrow, the xiaolong s21 and shadow t1 would officially begin mass production!

During this period, to better sell these two cars, Old Jia gave it his all.

He even pulled hundreds of xiaolong s22 and shadow t1 units directly from Hongqi's production line and handed them all over to the dealers.

Everything was to ensure that these people could experience what these two cars had to offer.

It can be said that whether it was the xiaolong s22 or the shadow t1...

They completely crushed the entire car market in that price range!

The more this happened, the more it highlighted how awesome Hongqi automobiles were.

The more this happened, the more people bought them.

Four days, 130,000 units!

In just four days, Hongqi had created a miracle.

This achievement shocked countless people.

When these figures were released, countless media outlets went crazy.

Without exception, they published it on their own platforms, whether in newspapers or on short video apps.

"Hongqi, the pride of Xia Country, the face of the automotive industry!"

"Hongqi creates a miracle in four days!"

"A conscientious enterprise, the pride of the nation, the pride of the people!"

"Now, would you still choose foreign cars?"

Such reports appeared on the headlines of all self-media almost overnight.

Of course, quite a few of them had been paid for by Old Jia.

Things like this are necessary.

Anyway, Wang Xiuming wasn't engaging in false advertising; he just stated what needed to be stated.

The next day, Hongqi held a press conference.

This press conference was broadcast live throughout!

On that day, the number of active viewers in the live stream exceeded ten million!

This was the first time such an achievement had been reached in the development of low-end automobiles.

Such a number made everyone's jaws drop.

In his office, Wang Xiuming opened the system again.

Now, he had another chance to draw a prize.

Moreover, his system points had risen to 300,000.

All of this was thanks to the shadow t1.

For every unit sold, two points were added.

And the shadow t1 had contributed 200,000.

The rest were contributed by the xiaolong s22.

The familiar system roulette appeared before Wang Xiuming.

Without thinking, he pointed a finger at it.

He wondered what kind of thing would appear this time.

Wang Xiuming looked at the spinning wheel in front of him with anticipation.

Hongqi was currently like a bottomless pit; anything would do.

Cars, technology, or even people—anything was fine.

They lacked everything.

"It would be best if I got a fully automated production line!"

Wang Xiuming muttered to himself.

Undoubtedly, this was what Hongqi lacked the most right now.

A fully automated production line is something desperately needed by any manufacturing industry.

With such a production line, one could produce any vehicle model after simple modifications!

The most critical thing is that it can greatly improve efficiency and reduce costs!

Especially for car companies, the pursuit of this aspect is simply insane!

Toyota alone spends at least 50 billion a year on research into fully automated production lines!

Not to mention other car companies.

Even so, until now, only some theories have emerged.

They are still a long way from actually building one!

As for Hongqi, wanting to develop such a production line is simply a joke.

They didn't even have the theories.

If it were produced and used for the production of the shadow t1, it could save at least 10,000 in costs!

[Congratulations to the host, you have obtained fully automated production line manufacturing technology.]

"Holy sh*t!"

Wang Xiuming was stunned and rubbed his eyes.

He was certain it was fully automated production line manufacturing technology.

Not a fully automated production line!

"Hahaha..."

This is more than just standing up; this is taking off!

Fully automated technology!

This is not the same concept as fully automated in the traditional sense!

Because the system's "fully automated" is truly fully automated!

What does this mean? No human labor required!

And what is the most critical part?

High production volume!

A fully automated production line includes production, assembly, and parts installation.

It completely eliminates labor costs!

Furthermore, it can intelligently adjust to the vehicle models they need to produce at any time.

In other words, as long as the program is set, there is nothing it cannot build!

Next, Wang Xiuming wants to conquer the mid-range market, and this is definitely his trump card!

...

"President Wang, Toyota's new energy vehicles have started selling, but sales are miserable."

In the office, Old Jia spoke up.

Originally, he was extremely wary of Toyota entering the market.

After all, anyone would be afraid of such a behemoth.

Not to mention that the selling price was almost the same as the xiaolong s21.

Unfortunately, their new energy vehicles were like a small pebble dropped into the ocean; they were swallowed up without making a single splash.

There was no way around it; their new energy vehicles were in a completely different league compared to the xiaolong s22.

In other words.

It's like selling the most popular iPhone 4 from back in the day and the current Dami 11 for the same price.

Which one would you buy?

Even a fool would know how to choose!

They are not even in the same league; there is no comparison in any aspect.

A comprehensive crushing!

Wang Xiuming nodded, although Toyota would certainly not give up so easily.

However, Wang Xiuming was not worried at all.
