"Master Yang, help me contact these companies and buy a batch of products. I'll get a few cars to try.”
Li Qi handed the purchase order to Yang Xuewen.
Yang Xuewen took the purchase order and nodded slightly. He looked a little emotional."Just now, your dad told me that he's going to retire…Now it seems that CEO Li is going to do something big?”
"This is something that even your father doesn't dare to do. The investment is too big, and the competition is too big.”
"I can only try my best to help you!"
Little Panda Technology Co., Ltd.
It was the name of Li Qi's family's company.
It used to be called the Little Panda motorcycle factory or something like that…but it changed its name later.
The logo was a black and white panda hugging a bamboo.
Li Qi had heard from his father that someone had wanted to buy the company's logo for 50 million.
Li Qi's family's company was not only worth some money, but the company's logo was also worth some money.
Yang Xuewen had followed Li Jianan for more than ten years and was very familiar with the company's situation. Naturally, he knew that Li Jianan also wanted to make cars back then.
In the early years, the car manufacturing license was applied for.
Unfortunately, the market was ever-changing. The ban on motorcycles and the increasing popularity of motorcycle manufacturing had put a lot of pressure on the competition.
The car market had become a sea of red, with major car companies fighting each other.
The Red Panda Company entered, but it was not enough to fill the gaps between his teeth. In the end, Li Jianan gave up his dream of making cars and became a salted fish.
Li Qi wanted to build a car now…It was even more difficult than before.
However, new energy vehicles were indeed a breakthrough.
In the past two years, new energy vehicles had been very popular. There was no need to accumulate knowledge in traditional vehicle engine technology.
The core of a new energy vehicle was the battery, motor, and electronic control system.
Compared to traditional fuel vehicles, new energy vehicles did have the possibility of overtaking at corners.
"I'll help you contact the manufacturer to get the goods!”
Yang Xuewen received the purchase order from Li Qi and went to contact the manufacturer to order a batch of goods.
Li Qi returned to his studio.
In front of the computer, the three Transformers were studying seriously.
Li Qi brought a laptop over.
Number One was teaching Number Two, Little Heng, and Number Three, Little Donkey.
At the same time, Li Qi collected information on all kinds of cars on the market.
A new car had to go through the process of project establishment, research, styling, regulations, configuration, marketing, pricing, sales volume, investment, cost, product characteristics, development cycle, profit ability, and so on.
They all needed a large amount of data to support them.
For example, a popular car model?
What model did the market need?
What price would the market accept?
What configuration, what price, and what expected sales? How long would it take to recoup costs and realize profits?
All of these needed to be researched before the new car was developed.
Car companies developed new cars to accurately target a certain market.
Number One had helped Li Qi sort out the data.
The best-selling models were undoubtedly models that cost more than 200,000 yuan.
For new energy vehicles, it was really difficult to buy high-quality new energy vehicles in this price range.
The price of new energy vehicles was basically 400 - 600 thousand yuan.
"However, with the official subsidy…we can try to set the price at a relatively cheap level.”
"The initial profit requirement is not high. As long as you don't lose money, it's fine.”
Li Qi looked at the popular models and pricing ranges on the market.
'One' had already pulled out the 3D modeling software. The exterior design, interior design, chassis data, and various parts data of each model.
One by one, they were displayed in front of Li Qi!
To put it bluntly, no matter which car company they found to develop a new car!
It would take several months just to collect the market data.
The design of the exterior, the design of the chassis, the design of the components, the modeling, the mold opening, the manufacturing, and the testing…all of these required several months or even longer.
On the other hand, Number One used the idle computing power of the supercomputers on the market.
After hundreds of millions, billions, and billions of simulations and tests, the appearance of the model was finalized.
In the future, when driving a vehicle, whether it was windy, rainy, snowy, cold, hot, uphill, downhill, etc., it could ensure that the body design, the chassis design, and various components would not have problems.
Of course, this was just a simulation test.
When the car was manufactured, it still needed to be sent to the national testing agency for various tests.
'Number One' had directly passed all aspects of the supercomputer simulation test, as well as the harsh environment simulation test. The materials used for the parts in the car were all the best.
The only troublesome thing was!
Li Qi had to make these parts himself.
It was not appropriate to use parts from other companies in the market.
This was not difficult for Li Qi.
" Buy a machine tool and let 'Number One' control the parts…"
"When the hovercars and electric scooters make money, I'll directly buy the production line, open the mold myself, and manufacture the parts myself.”
This was not difficult.
In the future, when he wanted to develop more car models, he would definitely use these parts to make them universal and reduce costs.
It could also greatly reduce the vehicle development cycle.
It was equivalent to a platform!
Why did some foreign companies develop new cars so quickly and with good quality?
Because they had their own platform.
It was equivalent to having a framework, and all kinds of parts were universal.
When large car companies developed new cars, they had to design a reasonable appearance and so on.
With the framework and components being universal, the development speed was naturally fast.
"I have a cheat too!"
This was Li Qi's confidence and confidence.
In the field of car manufacturing, new energy vehicles did not need to accumulate engine technology.
This was an opportunity to overtake at the bend.
Li Qi already had the best electronic control technology. He only needed to solve the motor and battery technology!
Even if they used the same excellent electric motor and battery on the market, coupled with the electronic control technology and software technology of One, the new energy car developed by Li Qi was the best.
Of course, the Red Panda Factory had machine tools.
Number One had already gotten the data of the various components.
Li Qi let Number One take over the software of the machine tool and control the machine tool to process the parts.
With Number One's control, the precision of the processing was much better than the original manufacturer's intelligent control system.
Of course, the parts produced would be even better.
It could be said that a car was assembled from a few parts.
The only troublesome part for Li Qi was the car frame and the chassis.
Number One had also given him the territory data. However, the Red Panda Factory did not produce cars, so the chassis and frame were a little troublesome.
But this was not a problem for Li Qi.
He just needed to find someone to help with the manufacturing.
It was the simplest and most convenient, even more convenient than Li Qi slowly doing it in the factory.
Li Qi did it himself. He had to manufacture the parts one by one and then perform welding.
If the manufacturing process was good, they could directly press and manufacture them.
Of course, the one-piece stamping was better than the welding.
Li Qi was a graduate student at Great Xia University of Science and Technology. A few of his classmates were in some big companies outside, so he could entrust them with the job.
The school also had related laboratories and related equipment…They could entrust students who were studying for their PhD to help with the processing.
With the detailed data, Li Qi sought help from his PhD student at the University of Science and Technology.
His classmate said that it would be done in three days.
However, it would take some time to transport them.
It should be delivered to Li Qi in five days!
Of course, Li Qi had paid for it.
The cost price and the material cost were not cheap.
Li Qi had also received news from Yang Xuewen that the batteries purchased by Mingde Energy, as well as the motor parts purchased by other companies, would be sent over in two days.
In a week, Li Qi could assemble the car!
Many parts from other companies might be used, but this was normal. Many companies used products from other companies when producing cars. It was impossible to make everything themselves.
Anyway, this speed... was considered light speed, right?!
