The car-making outlet is still there, but it can't be messed up.
A few days ago, the ideal Li wanted to spray people again. In fact, in the past, Li Xiang's unguarded mouth was much unpleasant. However, in the matter of the group car, everyone seems to be on the side of Li Xiang.
An external team of more than 100 people can undertake product planning, modeling design, engineering development, systematic integration programs, production support, supplier management and almost all car-making links and tasks; up to 20 million yuan, down to less than 50,000 yuan of cars, can do; a car production only needs 50 million US dollars...
The "bold words" released by Wen Wei, CEO of Tuanche, is estimated that even Jia Yueting will be ashamed to hear it. Netizens have joked that "PPT-made cars" are now obsolete, and only one mouth can be used. In the face of such an inexplicably confident group car, Li Xiang, who has always been "straight", was very unaccustomed to it, so he sprayed.
It is true that the threshold for building cars in the new energy era does look a little lower than in the fuel era, but it is far less simple than many people think.
When Lei Jun announced his entry into the automotive industry with the first batch of 10 billion, industry insiders commented that this was far from enough. Even the "Wei Xiaoli", which is currently at the tip of the pyramid, has released the third quarter of 2021 financial report, showing that they are still in a state of loss.
I have to say that car building is an extremely expensive business, which requires a steady stream of huge amounts of money to continue to supply. Those car companies that were drowned in the dust of history in the early days were not in the minority who were dragged down by funds. Even if we believe that the group car can come up with a production car for $50 million, what about the follow-up?
In addition to funding, people are also crucial factors. "What is the most important thing in the twenty-first century? talent! In reality today, this classic line in "No Thief in the World" is still reasonable.
The rapid development of new energy vehicles has made the demand for automobile practitioners soar, and it has become a routine operation to dig into each other's walls. As you will see, many of the key figures of the new car companies come from traditional car companies.
The group car to form a team is bound to take this road. However, in the case of a large personnel gap in the entire industry, in the face of those new and old car companies that have become famous, Tuanche does not have the advantage of competing with talents. When "Wei Xiaoli" and the offer of the group car are placed in front of them at the same time, I think any auto practitioner will give a refreshing and neat answer.
Coupled with Wen Wei's exaggerated description of the team's almost omnipotence, it is really difficult to convince.
Of course, objectively speaking, the group car is not useless. How to say that Tuanche is also a listed enterprise, and has experience in auto trading service platforms. However, these are far from enough to support the beautiful blueprint depicted by Wen Wei.
In the final analysis, behind the high profile of the group car, it is more to get enough attention. And with attention, there is the possibility of getting a chance, just like the super savior That Lee wants to say. However, in the end, it is difficult to say whether it is a successful car or a successful circle of money.
Having said that, it needs to be admitted that some of Wen Wei's words are still reasonable, such as the time window for building cars is still there.
Wei Xiaoli, Nezha, Weima, etc. from the first batch of new energy adventure team to break out of the siege, the current pattern seems to be preliminary, but if you look at the long term, the current development of new energy can still be regarded as the early stage, the opportunity is still there.
You know, even if the penetration rate of new energy vehicles continues to rise, as of 2021, the number of new energy vehicles is only more than 7.8 million, accounting for only 2.6%, and there is still huge room for development.
For investors, they are also looking forward to the emergence of the next "Wei Xiaoli". Many cities are also fantasizing about becoming the next Hefei and becoming the capital of new energy vehicles. Xiaomi, Mavericks and other new players continue to pour into the car track, and it is precisely to see these.
For those new players who sincerely want to add luster to the new energy market, the market will hold a welcoming attitude; but if it is just to take advantage of the opportunity to circle money and waste social resources, the market will also give a profound lesson.
