But in the end, after weighing the pros and cons, Kuang Xuejin still chose the old partner Mantech Group from Europe. Moreover, Mantech Group had developed a new energy battery this ti, and technologically, it was nothing short of a revolutionary breakthrough.
"That’s also true."
Hearing this, Chen Xueming gave a slight nod.
"Manager Dong, since Dami Technology Group released the Dami 1 series, how many have been pre-sold to date?"
Kuang Xuejin suddenly asked another person in the office.
That was none other than the general manager of Penguin Auto Group, Dong Yan.
"Mr. Kuang, the Dami 1 series by Dami Technology Group has pre-sold over 17,000 units," Dong Yan answered.
"It seems the presales aren’t bad."
Upon hearing this, Chen Xueming couldn’t help but remark, "It’s only been a week since the launch event, and already over 17,000 units have been pre-sold. Wouldn’t that an the monthly sales will easily reach twenty to thirty thousand units?"
Achieving monthly sales of twenty to thirty thousand units is already quite impressive dostically.
"It’s all about having a large fanbase."
Kuang Xuejin remarked with a sense of admiration.
The Dami 1 series of new energy vehicles from Dami Technology Group wouldn’t pose a threat to Penguin Group’s 6 series, so Kuang Xuejin wasn’t worried at all.
His current concern was that the new energy vehicle produced in collaboration between Huawei Technology Group and Red Flag might pose so threat if it featured an excessive amount of black technology.
As for Dami Technology Group, the presales figures were rely the result of fans showing their support.
If Kuang Xuejin’s prediction was correct, the first month’s presales might be higher but would decline each month thereafter, becoming more and more dismal.
"Kuang, Chang’an Group’s press conference has started," Chen Xueming suddenly reminded him.
Far away in Mist City.
At the National Expo Center, Chang’an Group’s new energy vehicle, Chang’an · Nova, officially launched its press conference.
The person responsible for the live broadcast of the press conference was Liu Pei, the general manager of Chang’an Group.
Although Ding Yue had co to the scene, he was there only to watch Chang’an Group’s press event, and the entire conference proceeded normally.
However!
The car model showcased at Chang’an Group’s press conference today didn’t look good to Ding Yue.
"What’s going on with Chang’an Group’s car designers this ti? Isn’t this style too radical, too deford?"
Upon seeing the Chang’an · Nova, Ding Yue muttered to himself.
"Fuck! Indeed, it doesn’t look smooth, and it’s not attractive at all," Huang Youjie also offered his critique.
This car’s exterior design indeed polarized opinions severely. If soone liked it, they might really love it.
But for most people, when it cos to aesthetic preferences for car exteriors, this design wouldn’t be easily accepted.
Like Ding Yue and Huang Youjie, for example.
Even Ding Yue’s secretary, Wen Ruohan, shook her head and said, "This car doesn’t look very good."
"This exterior could have a negative effect."
Ding Yue analyzed and comnted.
"Yue, with an exterior like this, I definitely wouldn’t buy it," Xu Bin said from the side. "What are the designers and senior managent at Chang’an Group thinking?"
"However, luckily this Chang’an · Nova is equipped with our graphene battery, so the performance should certainly be strong. With that, it might compensate for so of the disadvantages," Huang Youjie analyzed as well.
Ding Yue felt Huang was right. It seed Chang’an Group’s Chang’an · Nova could only rely on the graphene battery from Feiyue Group to make up for so lost ground.
Originally,
Ding Yue felt the exterior of Chang’an Group’s Chang’an · Nova was outrageous, but to his utter surprise, the interior was even more absurd.
Even a normal interior would be better than what they had now, right?
This ti, Chang’an Group, in an effort to stand out, ended up with sothing that was eccentric and inappropriate. Furthermore, regarding the vehicle’s operating system, Chang’an Group actually used their own self-developed system, which seed quite ordinary and lacked any highlights.
This fell short when compared to Dami Technology Group’s Dami Operating System, not to ntion the later competition with Huawei Technology Group’s Red Alliance Operating System and Penguin Auto Group’s Penguin Cloud Smart Operating System.
"What... What was the leadership at Chang’an Group thinking?"
Ding Yue was already close to being dumbfounded.
It seems that the leadership of Chang’an Group really has limited ability, or perhaps they never seriously considered making new energy vehicles well.
Because this ti, the Mist City Governnt had a significant subsidy for Chang’an Group, could it be that Chang’an Group was rely trying to swindle the subsidies for new energy vehicles?
But looking at how serious Chang’an Group seed this ti, it didn’t quite fit that mold!
In short, this ti Chang’an Group’s Chang’an · Nova seed like a new energy vehicle that was seriously built, but the result turned out to be neither fish nor fowl, without any highlights.
Of course, except for the graphene battery.
There you have it.
It finally ca ti to introduce the new energy part of Chang’an · Nova.
Liu Pei did indeed spend a lot of ti, especially highlighting the graphene battery used in Chang’an · Nova, and ntioned Feiyue Group nurous tis.
When the range capability data of Chang’an · Nova’s graphene battery was released, the audience instantly gasped!
"Fuck! A range exceeding two thousand kiloters? Full-load range over 1200 kiloters? Fuck, is this for real?"
"The vehicle’s range is that impressive?"
"Feiyue Group’s graphene battery is that amazing?"
"Damn, this range is aweso!"
"Such a strong range, huh? Fast charging too!"
"I’m sowhat tempted now; I want to buy, but the exterior and interior designs are really off-putting."
"After looking at Chang’an Group’s Chang’an · Nova, fuck, except for the battery life, it seems like every other aspect is really subpar!"
"Apart from the battery, this car really has nothing going for it."
"Indeed, the battery is a bit aweso, this graphene battery from Feiyue Group is really impressive."
"I had heard about the graphene battery from Mist City Arts and Science University before, and now it seems there really is sothing to it."
The viewers onsite at the National Expo Center, as well as the netizens, could say that their evaluations of Chang’an Group’s Chang’an · Nova are quite on point.
The polarization is severe.
The battery of Chang’an · Nova received high praise and was even hailed as aweso.
But for the other aspects of the Chang’an · Nova, they really couldn’t garner any interest from consurs.
Over at Penguin Auto Group headquarters.
Kuang Xuejin’s eyes widened upon seeing the range and charging speed of Chang’an Group’s Chang’an · Nova: "Does it really et the performance trics given?"
"Kuang, this graphene battery is really powerful indeed."
Chen Xueming knew that for the revolutionary new battery models of new energy vehicles soon to hit the market, like the Penguin 6 series and Tesla’s latest models, full-load range would be impossible to exceed one thousand kiloters.
Yet Chang’an Group’s Chang’an · Nova claims it can achieve a full-load range of over 1200 kiloters?
"What a pity, such a good battery paired with such a car? Chang’an Group has really made a fool of itself this ti, hahaha."
Kuang Xuejin couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
Although the battery range and charging speed of Chang’an Group’s Chang’an · Nova do seem pretty impressive.
But apart from the battery, the Chang’an · Nova model seems to have no other rits.
At this mont, Ding Yue’s thoughts were the sa as Kuang Xuejin’s.
Not only that, deep down, Ding Yue felt a sense of disappointnt that Chang’an Group, which was cooperating with his own Feiyue Group, was so underwhelming.
"Sigh."
Ding Yue couldn’t help but sigh: "This Chang’an Group."
"Yue, it’s such a waste using our graphene battery for Chang’an Group’s Chang’an · Nova. It would be better off in the Dami 1 series."
Huang Youjie also said helplessly.
If even Ding Yue and his buddies were not optimistic about Chang’an Group’s new energy vehicle launch, what more could be said about the new energy vehicle consurs?
"So disappointing, but it’s okay, since Chang’an Group isn’t performing well, we have even more reason to build our own new energy vehicles."
Ding Yue shook his head and said, then his eyes flashed with determination.
