85: Chapter 85 Online Face-Slapping Collection

"What! This is impossible! A 10-millimeter Super Chip—even the veteran chip manufacturer Central Control Heim couldn't achieve that. How on earth did they do it?"

"Hongqi has been silent all this time, only to unleash such a massive ultimate move. No wonder they weren't worried; they even returned 100,000 chips!"

"Just look at this; it's obvious they already have the Super Chip. Who cares about those outdated products anymore?"

"This really is a total face-slap. Wait, no—think about it: if even the chips are domestically produced, then all future Hongqi cars will be entirely domestically manufactured. This is practically setting a new precedent!"

"Mom, the order I just canceled—I'll tell them it was a mistake on my part. Can you forgive me?"

"Ahem, why did you mess around with your phone and cancel the order, you child?"

An Ruoyun took a deep breath and glanced toward the backstage area.

The two sisters, Zhou Linyue and Zhou Xiyue, drove their new new-energy vehicle onto the display stage.

Like An Ruoyun, these two young women were also wearing work uniforms.

Although all three young women were dressed in work attire rather than evening gowns or professional office wear, they were still a stunning sight to behold; they were simply too beautiful.

And the moment their new-energy vehicle appeared on the stage, the stage transformed, and a large archway appeared before everyone's eyes.

This sudden change made everyone widen their eyes in pure curiosity.

"Next up is our new car launch ceremony!"

"This electric sedan is equipped with traditional battery modules and a Power System. With the optimization of the Power System, it can achieve a range of 500 kilometers!"

"Furthermore, we have transferred all the functions from the A3 to our new car. Beyond the integrated wraparound central control console, we have also installed a 3D projection device on the windshield, which can monitor vehicle information and route changes in real-time!"

"Not only that, but we have also equipped it with an Autonomous Driving System. This technology is fully mature and leads the new-energy vehicle industry giant, Tesla!"

After the three sisters had introduced all the advantages and merits of the new car one by one, it was time for the highlight of their presentation.

As Zhou Linyue drove the car into the archway, two mechanical arms instantly emerged from the archway.

Coordinating with hydraulic plates, they lifted the car to a height of about two meters.

Immediately after, the two mechanical arms removed the battery module from the bottom of the car and replaced it with a brand-new battery.

The entire process took less than a minute, and the car had finished recharging.

The whole process was incredibly smooth.

This completely stunned the viewers in the livestream.

"This is the battery replacement technology we wanted to highlight!"

"The time it takes to refuel a traditional gasoline car is no more than 5 minutes, and the biggest problem with new-energy vehicles is charging. Our brand-new technology can shorten the charging time!"

"We will complete full coverage across 661 cities nationwide within one month, fully resolving the issue of recharging for our new cars!"

"We will install 2,000 car battery replacement platforms in 661 cities nationwide!"

When An Ruoyun finished saying this, not a single comment was posted in the livestream for a moment.

Compared to the previous mockery and joking, this time, all the viewers were stunned.

Compared to traditional internal combustion engine sedans, the advantage of new-energy sedans lies in their lower price, and they also benefit significantly from national policy subsidies.

With current gasoline prices soaring to nearly 7 yuan, filling a tank costs about 350 yuan and covers nearly 500 kilometers.

Whereas the electricity cost to fully charge a new-energy sedan is only a few dozen yuan.

By comparison, new-energy vehicles have a huge advantage.

However, the reason new-energy vehicles haven't been able to break into the market is because their charging time is too long.

Typical experienced drivers are simply unwilling to wait for such a long time.

Now, Hongqi has introduced a new charging mode.

This immediately left many people stunned.

It even made some experienced drivers tempted.

Hongqi also plans to achieve full coverage in 661 cities.

This caused many people to flock to it.

They were even willing to buy such a new-energy vehicle as their first experience.

Plus, the price is satisfactory; generally speaking, the retail price of cars in the terminal market ranges from 150,000 to 500,000.

The price of this new-energy vehicle launched by Hongqi is just over 200,000.

Even with the top-tier configuration, it costs no more than 300,000.

It was truly eye-opening for everyone, and as the launch event concluded, Hongqi listed the Snapdragon E1 on its official website.

For a time, there was an endless stream of consumers wanting to book.

Real-time data was displayed on the backstage computer.

In less than 10 short minutes, it had already soared to over 1,000 vehicles.

This didn't even include the Snapdragon E1 units purchased by their distributors.

Including everything, the order volume had now increased by over 5,000 units.

This instantly wiped out the previous deficit.

Furthermore, the Hongqi A3 also saw a significant increase in purchase volume this time.

The orders that were previously canceled were now being re-ordered one after another.

For a time, the entire Hongqi company had returned to its former bustling state.

"I told you this wasn't a big problem at all. Old Jia, you're just narrow-minded, thinking our company was going to go bankrupt, so you incited the employees not to work properly. You must be stunned now, right!"

Wang Xiuming said to Old Jia with a bit of mockery.

Old Jia felt ashamed and could only laugh awkwardly.

"Don't ever ask me to do this again. I really don't want to stand on stage and introduce so many things to them, and now they're all calling me the 'Factory Belle'!"

An Ruoyun felt a bit aggrieved.

She was so pretty, yet people insisted on calling her the 'Factory Belle'.

Although they had given her the title of Chief Engineer, it still felt a bit awkward to her.

"You shouldn't feel awkward at all. You need to accept the audience's love for you with a heart full of gratitude; that is the only way you can improve!"
