Recently, there have been rumors on the domestic network about Tesla's acquisition of Zotye Automobile, which has been in trouble, and the news that Tesla's global vice president Tao Lin has officially announced is false.
Because Tesla's production results in the Shanghai factory are very significant, Tesla has always wanted to expand its manufacturing capacity by actively building new factories and expanding existing factories, especially the location information about Tesla is choosing to build a second factory in China has become the focus of many people's attention, due to the extreme opacity of Tesla's news, coupled with Tesla's some cases will indeed make some counterintuitive operations, naturally it has caused many people to care. Such information about site selection continues to ferment on the Internet, and it is difficult to distinguish between true and false.
The recent rumors of the acquisition of Zotye Automobile are more like a different way to show that Tesla's development in China will not stop at the Shanghai factory, and this time the information is even supported by a document that can see the signatures and seals of Tesla's management, although Tao Lin has later proved that these signatures and seals are forged.
Although this information proved to be false, Tao Lin also specifically wrote: "In view of the current situation, Tesla will report the case to the public security organs and call on netizens to ** false rumors on the Internet." ”
