According to the Securities Times, after becoming the first batch of owners of ZEEKR 009 Glory not long ago, on June 1, at the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Auto Show, Zhou Hongyi became the latest owner of the Red Wenjie M9, and Yu Chengdong, chairman of Huawei Intelligent Vehicle Solution BU, accompanied to pick up the car, and the two also launched a brief conversation in the car, and the whole process was broadcast live online.
Wenjie M9 was once known as "the best SUV within 10 million" by Yu Chengdong, at the new M7 renewal conference held on May 31, Yu Chengdong also said that the flagship SUV model M9 was launched for 5 months to exceed 90,000 units, and the sales volume surpassed all luxury brands, becoming the first sales volume of more than 500,000 prices regardless of model and energy form.
"When Mr. Yu shouted the phrase that M9 is a luxury car within 10 million before, I thought it was Yu Chengdong boasting, but after real experience, I found that Yu Chengdong was redefining luxury cars, that is, safety + intelligence, and he was changing the pattern of the luxury car market." At the delivery ceremony, Zhou Hongyi said.

The Jimu News reporter noticed that on June 1, Zhou Hongyi updated a short video on his personal social platform, wishing the majority of netizens a happy June Day, saying that he was going to Shenzhen to pick up a new M9 that day, and Huawei also provided him with an M9 to go to the airport. The day before departure, like a primary school student who was going on a spring outing, he was so excited that he didn't go to bed until 3 o'clock in the morning when he thought of the next day's trip, and got up at 5 o'clock in the morning to catch the earliest flight to Shenzhen, and slept on the plane all the way. In the afternoon of the same day, he will participate in the Future Automobile Pioneer Conference, and will also deliver a keynote speech, and prepare three topics, but only 15 minutes of speech time, hoping that netizens will give advice, which topic he chooses.
According to the Daily Economic News, on June 1, at the second Future Automobile Pioneer Conference, Zhou Hongyi, founder of 360 Group, said that he would pick up the M9 that afternoon, and Yu Chengdong, chairman of Huawei Intelligent Vehicle Solution BU, would personally deliver the car keys for him. Prior to this, Zhou Hongyi had already mentioned the Extreme Krypton 009 Glorious Edition. He once revealed that he will buy 7 different domestic new energy vehicles, from Monday to Sunday, and replace one every day to enjoy a different riding experience.
At the conference site, Zhou Hongyi gave his own insights on the current phenomenon of car circle bosses going down to do live broadcasts. He believes that now the most volatile rim is the roll boss, and the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers has become how many bosses are "consumed" per 100 kilometers. "It is said that it is 'volume boss', but in fact, it is the entrepreneur's personal IP."
In Zhou Hongyi's view, in this era of information explosion, the brand image of entrepreneurs has increasingly become an important aspect of enterprise competitiveness. Establishing a more direct connection with consumers through live streaming and other means can not only enhance brand affinity, but also establish a unique personal image in the market.
Zhou Hongyi laughed at himself, he is not a professional in the car circle, and he doesn't even have a driver's license, but he said that he is willing to become the "atmosphere group" of domestic new energy vehicles and shout for the development of the industry.
Regarding his previous sale of Maybach, Zhou Hongyi responded that the money was donated, fortunately, it was donated, some people said it was a farce, but the result was to let consumers know the development of domestic new energy vehicles, and may have accidentally hurt some friends.
The Jimu News reporter noticed that on the morning of June 1, "Chairman Chu", who had spent 9.9 million yuan to take pictures of Zhou Hongyi's second-hand Maybach, also updated the video of himself and Zhou Hongyi taking the same plane to Shenzhen on social platforms. President Chu and Zhou Hongyi made a video together, saying that the two old comrades went to Children's Day together to deliver big gifts. Zhou Hongyi said: "President Chu accompanied me to pick up the car, my second car, Huawei Wenjie M9, Lao Yu came to hand over the car keys to me." At the pick-up scene that day, President Chu also took a video and posted it on social platforms.
