Hearing Chen Shuang's words.
Li Ming suddenly remembered.
This meeting was very important to the company.
Because of the rise in oil prices, there were even fewer people buying cars.
The remaining users.
They were also extremely concerned about displacement and fuel consumption.
Engine technology happened to be the leading point for foreign joint venture car companies.
As for the Kunlun company that Li Ming was running, the previously released models were selling with high power among the same class.
Originally, high fuel consumption was just a trivial shortcoming.
Oil prices were skyrocketing.
Instead, it became the biggest pain point!
The consumers took a detour.
……
Twenty minutes later.
" President Li, we have to change the engine for our next generation. The original engine consumes a lot of fuel. It's already been posted online, saying that our domestic cars have such high maintenance costs..."
"Last month's sales fell by 50%. It's urgent to change the model!”
" The country just issued an energy policy last month, limiting the 2.0T vehicle's exhaust. It also encouraged the implementation of low-power and low-exhaust vehicles. You can even get points for responding to the policy..."
" In my opinion, if we don't reform, our market will probably be occupied by Japanese fuel-efficient cars…"
In the company's meeting room.
Several executives took turns to comment.
It received the approval of many people in the company.
Now that commutes were so expensive, people were crazy about fuel consumption.
The third aunt's status soared overnight.
In the past.
When the oil price was three to five yuan.
No one had ever said that they didn't dare to drive fast because of fuel consumption.
It was not a problem to fill up a tank of gas.
And now.
Even for these corporate executives, a full box of 95 was still a pain.
Not to mention the ordinary people.
Therefore…
Everyone agreed!
For a car like theirs that was mainly priced at the average price.
He had to reduce fuel consumption!
Otherwise, it would be over.
……
Li Ming looked at them and did not express his opinion.
On the contrary, there was a smile on his face.
It was as if he was not in a hurry at all.
When the other executives and employees noticed this, they were also stunned.
The sales volume kept dropping, but why didn't the boss look panicked at all?
"Boss, what do you think?"
"We've selected a few foreign suppliers to replace the engine. Do you want to take a look first?”
"Should we respond to the policy? There are many policy subsidies for companies to reduce their pollution, but the displacement is small. The price of the supply chain for well-tuned engines is also very high, and the profits are lower than expected..."
Liu Cheng, the marketing manager, asked.
A group of people looked over.
Li Ming smiled and said.
"Of course, we have to respond to the policy. Now that the whole world is using the banner of environmental protection and energy conservation, as a domestic company, we, Kunlun, have to make the most fuel-efficient and environmental friendly car model!!”
"So you mean we'll cooperate with foreign companies to install imported engines into new models?" asked Zhang Li.”
The other technical backbones of the company also became nervous.
Many domestic car companies cooperated with overseas companies and even used imported engines as publicity.
Of course, there were benefits to doing so.
However, the disadvantages were also obvious.
The profits were too low.
Moreover, the lifeline of building cars in the future was still in the hands of others.
"No, who said we want to import engines? Since we want to respond to the policy, then we will respond vigorously. Our Kunlun Corporation wants to create the most fuel-efficient car in the world!”
Ming Li said decisively!
Everyone was stunned.
The most fuel-efficient car in the world?
What did he mean?
At present, the most fuel-efficient car on the market was undoubtedly a Japanese car. There were also some particularly fuel-efficient domestic cars that undoubtedly referred to the lightweight design of the Japanese car.
Liming's decision to get into the world's most fuel-efficient car shocked everyone!
" Boss, forgive me for being blunt. Apart from controlling the engine's exhaust and improving efficiency, we also have to do a lightweight design. The entire project is too big, and Japanese cars have been in production for so many years. It's difficult for us to be first…"
Chen Zhou, the chief engineer of research and development, reminded him.
" Yeah, in terms of lightness, it's hard for us to beat the Japanese…"
" The launch of the new car is imminent. We don't have that much time and energy to develop it…"
"I'm afraid it's too late to compete with other car companies now.”
"What a joke…"
A group of people argued.
This involved the lifeline of the company's development, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Li Ming shook his head and chuckled.
"Who said I'm going to get involved with them? Actually, I think gasoline cars are completely outdated now. At least, with such high oil prices, they're not suitable for ordinary people.”
As soon as he said this.
Everyone in the conference room was stunned.
They were unfamiliar with this term.
He had no idea at all.
Everyone knew about petrol cars.
What was a streetcar?
Could it be that he only needed to charge it? Wasn't that too absurd?？
"Pure streetcar? A car driven purely by electricity?"
Suddenly.
The chief R D engineer, Chen Zhou, was shocked!
He asked in disbelief.
"Yes, a pure electric car, a car that discards the engine and does not need to burn oil at all, is naturally the most fuel-efficient car in the world.”
Li Ming smiled and nodded.
" Not only that, even if it runs for a few hundred kilometers, it will only cost a few dozen yuan to fully charge. Compared to the price of a tank of gas, which is 700 to 800 yuan, it will be ten times cheaper!”
Instantly.
Everyone was silent.
Everyone's eyes were filled with absurdity and disbelief.
It was as if they thought the boss was crazy!
They couldn't be blamed for thinking that way.
Based on the current level of development in this world.
Electric cars were still at the level of toy cars.
After all, on the original Earth, even the TTL, the pioneer of electric cars, only started mass production of electric cars ten years ago.
Moreover, the development of electricity in this world was a hundred years behind.
"Wait…Boss, the pure electric car you mentioned, as far as I know, has a similar concept in foreign research institutes. It was proposed by a doctor who researched the development of electric energy, but this concept is still in the laboratory stage and has not been realized at all…"
" According to the research institute's production, they might be able to produce a test vehicle that can be used on the road within five years. That's just an estimate…"
Chen Zhou said in disbelief.
The concept that Ming Li proposed was a little crazy!
In the top research institutes abroad, they were not confident that they could build an experimental vehicle within five years.
With their company's strength, how could they build a pure electric car all of a sudden?？
After hearing this, the executives present.
He nodded repeatedly.
It was a good idea.
But that was impossible.
However…
The information that Ming Li threw out next made the entire meeting room go crazy.
