Ordinary Road 2010

Now Lin Yi sounded like a rich man with a decent amount of money, and there was really no need to be too cautious with an amount of this order of magnitude.

Don't give money at all, and don't care about what you say.

The perfect patron.

Li Bing is not a long-winded person, nor does he make any decisions on the spot on his own initiative, nor is he deeply involved in the management of Mobike.

"Thank you, Lin Yi. I will bring your support to Hu Weiwei and Wang Xiaofeng. I believe your attitude will give them great encouragement. My trip today is not in vain."

After finishing talking about the business, he left without turning around, and the two of them started chatting about gossip.

"The round of the small yellow car was led by Goose Factory. I heard that their negotiation did not go well, and Goose Factory is already considering other options."

"But Little Yellow Che's attitude suddenly changed. He was very concerned about the goose factory, so he kept this important investment."

The entry of Goose Factory is also expected. There is also a guy Lin Yi is familiar with in the investment lineup this time, and the king star of each group has been involved in his personal capacity.

Lin Yi chuckled, no one knew better than him why Dai Wei suddenly greeted Goose Factory with a smile.

Obviously, he found himself harder to serve.

"The Goose Factory is certainly a good boss with a good reputation, but he has to be able to handle things by himself. I'm afraid the little yellow car will let him down."

It's normal for Lin to look down on the little yellow car, because he is now an investor in Mobike, but Li Bing always feels that he seems to have something else.

The reason is not hard to guess.

"Have you met any of them?"

Lin Yi has nothing to hide: "Before I negotiated with Mobike, it was Xiao Huang Che and his investors who took the initiative to find me."

"The conditions I gave are the same as yours. Unfortunately, Dai Wei of the little yellow car was born as a young master. He thought I was too harsh, so he rejected me."

After hearing this, Li Bing smiled and said, "Dai Wei is my junior in P University. Although I have never met him before, I always thought he was a very good young man."

"From this point of view, we still have to thank him, otherwise Mobike and we will probably miss this fate with Wanli Travel."

Lin Yiyi's understanding of the person in front of him is limited, and he just found out that he also graduated from P University.

"Dai Wei's angel investor is a senior from P University. The first step for the little yellow car to make a fortune was to cause a sensation through P University's campus marketing and successfully get out of the circle."

"It seems that even without Mobike, you would have had the opportunity to invest in a yellow car."

Of course, this is just casually. P University has a very wide circle, and it is impossible for everyone to play together. Li Robin from Xiongchang is still a P University.

The smaller the circle, the easier it is to unite.

Li Bing said with a smile: "If that's the case, there may not be a chance for me to invest. To be honest, the bike sharing matter is unintentional."

"At the beginning, Hu Weiwei suggested to me that the concept of shared bicycles could be done, but I didn't think the potential was very big, so I didn't care much about investing some money in her."

"To be honest, the current development of shared bicycles has far exceeded my expectations. The main reason is that the capital is too hungry, and this topic has been fired to a position that does not belong to it."

"Mobike is now riding a tiger, and it is involuntary to follow the trend."

"Hey, I want to make a statement. This is just my personal communication, and it doesn't represent Hu Weiwei and Wang Xiaofeng's thoughts, nor does it represent Mobike."

Of course Lin Yi expressed that he didn't mind, but he felt a little strange in his heart.

Li Bing is an old Jianghu, so it is not surprising that he has such a judgment, but as the chairman of Mobike, it is a bit strange to come to talk to Lin Yi about this.

What's more, the two had no friendship before, and this was the first time they met.

He's certainly not the kind of person to talk lightly.

"Lin Yi, I can see that you don't spend too much energy on Mobike because you respect their management rights, but because you are not optimistic about the development of shared bicycles."

"Of course you are different from me. You are not investing a small amount of money to try the water. I can understand the considerations of Wanli Travel in terms of industry layout."

"But I think, in the field you are really optimistic about and interested in, maybe it is us, the place where the two of us can cooperate deeply."

Lin didn't understand until he heard this, and Li Bing finally wanted to see him.

"I heard you want to build a car?"

Chapter 569 A Future Worth Investing in

When Lin Yi wanted to build a car, he only discussed it with Li Moyan, Liu Jianni and Wang Kai, and the three of them would definitely not let it out.

However, Wanli Travel has specially conducted research and demonstrations on the new energy vehicle industry for this purpose, and it is impossible to completely hide this rumor.

Serious and in-depth research is not just about reading papers and flipping through materials in the office. It is necessary to conduct on-the-spot investigations, and the upstream and downstream of the industry must not be missed.

Li Bing was by no means the only one who got wind of it.

Well-informed investors have already asked whether the company intends to get involved in car manufacturing, and the unified reply given by Wanli Travel is not yet conclusive.

There is no need for Lin Yi to deny it.

"It's just a superficial idea. I know Mr. Li has deep insights into the automobile industry, and he is also the earliest predecessor in the country to build cars. I just want to hear your suggestion."

This is not a compliment. Li Bing is indeed the earliest start among the so-called new car-making forces. Judging from the later progress, it can be regarded as reliable, at least he really handed over the real car.

It is more reliable than some "returning to China next week".

"Lin Yi, you may know that I have my own new energy vehicle brand, which was established two years ago, called Future."

"I am very pleased that you are optimistic about the new energy vehicle industry. There are multiple advantages that prove that electrification will be the development trend of the automotive industry."

"I think you should not build a car on a whim, but to seek to establish some kind of advantage that is insurmountable for thousands of miles of travel."

"As far as I know, neither you nor your team members have experience in the automotive industry. This will be a shortcoming of yours, so you did a large-scale research so carefully."

"And I think that happens to be the strongest foundation for our cooperation."

"You can become a strategic investor in the future, avoiding the many difficulties you need to overcome in building a car yourself, tell me your needs, and I will help you realize your ideas."

It was unexpected that Li Bing would come to the door, but it was also reasonable.

He's not bad for money.

But as a giant in the travel field, such a cooperation has many benefits for a new brand with no foundation. Even Lin Yi can think of selling a car, and Li Bing will only have more ways to make full use of this relationship.

Lin Yi didn't comment on this proposal: "I know the future, but how can I believe that it will be a better choice to cooperate with you?"

Li Bing talked eloquently: "Since you're interested, I'll tell you more about the future. Originally, these should not be released until the end of this year."

"Future now has a complete R&D and engineering team, and our first electric supercar will be unveiled soon."

"This car will apply the latest research results in the future, focusing on extreme performance and driving technology. We will prove that it is the fastest electric car in the world."

"I know that there are many people who are bluffing with the concept of electric cars, but I am different from those people. If you think my statement is watery, you are welcome to visit our company and test drive our actual car."

"We plan to produce six cars in the first batch. Besides myself, the car owners include Xiao Ma from Goose Factory, Lei Jun from Rice, Dong Ge from Dog Factory, Zhang Lei from Gaoling Capital, and Li Xiang from Autohome. "

"Most of these are our investors."

"Lin Yi, if you also become an important shareholder in the future, then you will be the seventh owner of this electric supercar."

The name Li Bing revealed was not simply showing off his circle of friends. Why was he so clear about the goose factory just now?

Because the goose factory is also his boss.

The longer Lin Yizhen hangs around, the more he understands why it is called two mountains.

The mountains are there, and there is no way to ignore them.

Li Bing focused on introducing the electric supercar he is about to release, probably because he thought that Lin Yi would like this kind of "crazy and cool" thing that is suitable for blowing up the road.

In fact, Lin Yiyi is not very interested in such expensive toys, let alone he can't drive.

However, there are still many people who eat this set. The endorsement of these bigwigs is indispensable for the rapid development of this new brand's popularity in the early stage.

As soon as Lin knew about Li Bing and his future, his greatest achievement was successfully entering the domestic luxury car market for the first time.

Not one car or two, but continuous shipments.

Even if the electric car is a trick, at least it will make consumers feel that domestic cars are worth the price.

In terms of sales alone, it has not widened the gap with other new players, but its future brand building and marketing methods are unique.

Lin Yi was not tempted by this.

"Mr. Li, I think you do practical things. I don't doubt your integrity and achievements, but it's better to do it yourself than to do it yourself. In fact, I want to try it myself."

Li Bing was not surprised. At Lin Yi's age, he already owned such an industry as traveling thousands of miles. It would be strange if he didn't have a bit of arrogance in his heart.

"Lin Yi, what I just introduced is just one aspect. In fact, I have some other information that I can give you."

"In the future, it took a total of two years from its establishment to the launch of this electric supercar. We have done three rounds of financing, with a total amount of more than 6 million US dollars."

"I know that Wanli Travel is very rich in funds in its account now, and 6 million US dollars is nothing at all."

"But building a car is a hard job. It really requires investment, time, patience, and intensive cultivation."

"If the threshold for electric vehicles is so low, then I will not engage in new energy sources against the daunting traditional giants of Toyota."

"It's different from the online game such as online car-hailing. It's not like spending tens of billions of dollars and breaking a new world in three years."

"If you start from scratch and everything goes well, in three years your car will only be on the road."

"I said this not to threaten, nor to look down on your ability, but simply to remind you that this may not be the best choice for you."

"Even if you have enough patience and sincerity yourself, whether your investors will allow it, and how it will help Wanli travel are all issues worth considering."

What Li Bing said was not unreasonable.

Since he mentioned investors, Lin Yi also gave him a reminder.

"In the board of directors of Wanli Travel, there is Cai Chongxin from Factory A."

Now Li Bing understood in seconds. It turned out that what Lin Yi was worried about was the conflict between Factory A and Goose Factory, and this matter was not something he could solve.

When the topic came to a dead end here, Li Bing left quickly, but left a message saying that if Lin Yi changed his mind, he could go to him at any time.

After sending Li Bing away, Lin told his partners about it.

The senior sister could tell at a glance: "Aside from factory A, you should have other reasons for rejecting him, right?"

Of course, traveling thousands of miles requires a good relationship with major shareholders, but the most dangerous time has passed, and there is no need to be restrained by Ma Jack.

Lin Yi can tell everything at this time: "The future product planning is going to Tesla, from high to low, and the force is full."

"His car may be a good car, but it was only intended to serve a certain number of people from the start."

"I said building online car-hailing cars is not to make us look LOW. In fact, durable, cheap and easy-to-drive cars are the bigger market, whether it is an ordinary family car or used for online car-hailing cars. "

"We don't lack a car that can sell tens of millions, what we lack is the kind of car that can sell tens of millions all over the world."

Chapter 570 An Jia

In November, a big event happened in the United States on the other side of the ocean. An old man with blond hair who likes to sign an OK with his left hand and No. 11 with his right hand unexpectedly won an election.

It was really unexpected. It is said that he himself found it unbelievable when he knew the result.

In the next four years, this old man will continue to contribute countless jokes for free to the melon-eaters all over the world.

Lin felt more and more familiar with this world.

"Dangdang, what do you think?"

Right now, Lin Yi is accompanying Gu Caiwei to visit her new residence in the capital. It took several months to settle on this idea since the beginning of the year.

This is a detached villa with five floors, and the garage is larger than the total area of ​​ordinary people's houses.

The house is being renovated, and Ms. Gu Changge handles all these things. Gu Caiwei is just at her disposal, and Lin Yi is here for the first time.

"pretty good."

In fact, Lin Yi, who had never bought a property before, was really reluctant to evaluate an empty rough house.

The only thing he knew was that the house was worth nine figures.

Oh, by the way, another advantage is that the privacy of this place is very guaranteed, so Lin Yi and Gu Caiwei can hang out together in a fair manner.

"Mom asked me if I had any requirements or ideas. I don't know how to decorate, so I brought you over to have a look."

Lin Yi smiled and said: "Then you really overestimate me, and I don't know anything about it."

Gu Caiwei doesn't mind either, she just finds a reason to come out with Lin Yi, what to do is not the most important thing.

While wandering around the house, she muttered as if she wanted to write down something: "There must be a large enough cloakroom, no, two..."

"It's better to have a recording studio inside the house, so you don't have to go outside..."
