Chapter 584 Building a Platform
The three of them talked for nearly two hours in the office, discussing everything from the launch of the model to the specific operation behind it.

"The two hours of chatting with Mr. Zhou really opened my eyes. I thought sharing was just a simple car rental. I didn't expect there to be so much knowledge in it." Ma Huafu couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"This is only the first stage of shared development. By the second stage, the scope of business will only be wider." Zhou Fei replied with a smile.

"I'm particularly curious about what the second stage of sharing refers to. How can it be possible to share the idle vehicles of the whole society?" Jiang Yang said curiously.

"I also really want to know, why don't Mr. Zhou tell us more? It's just 10:30, and there's still some time left for lunch." Ma Huafu also said.

But Zhou Fei shook his head, "I'll keep it a secret for now, and I'll tell you when the time comes."

Seeing this, the two could only suppress their inner curiosity.

"Let's go take a rest first. After talking for a long time, I'm also a little tired. After lunch, let's discuss the specific implementation plan of the speeding trip." Zhou Fei stood up and twisted habitually neck.

Sitting in the office for a long time, Zhou Fei always felt that there was something wrong with his back.

Lunch was settled in the small cafeteria of the car home, and there was no one else. Just Zhou Fei, Jiang Yang, and Ma Huafu ordered a few dishes of fried rice and had a delicious meal.

After resting for more than half an hour, the three of them came to the office again, and continued to talk about the topics they hadn't finished talking about in the morning.

"The launch plan of the vehicles will be carried out according to what was said in the morning. Tomorrow morning, Dayang, you will organize a high-level meeting of Autohome, and you will arrange this work at the meeting. As for matters related to other companies, I will Will say hello to them."

Zhou Fei took a sip of tea and continued, "The most important task now is to build the platform first. This platform includes both the online system platform and the offline hardware platform. Let's talk about the offline platform first. Let’s download the hardware platform.”

The offline platform is mainly about the launch of shared cars. First of all, the launch of cars must be supported by the local government. At least the government must agree to the company’s setting up of car drop-off points and parking spots in areas such as gas stations and parks.

In addition, the launch of gasoline vehicles requires cooperation with the companies behind the gas stations such as Sanbarrel Oil, and the launch of electric vehicles involves the assembly of charging stations. These are all platform conditions that must be met offline.

"Oil trucks are in charge of you, Dayang. As for the platform related to electric vehicles, you, Ma, are in charge of arranging them. Anyway, you are familiar with the charging station. As for the local government, I will come forward to negotiate. "Zhou Fei quickly arranged part of the work.

"Then where does Mr. Zhou plan to put the shared car in the cities this time?" Ma Huafu asked.

"Let's try it in Shencheng and Jinling first. The facilities in these two places are relatively complete. After the pilot is successful, it will be extended to other places." Zhou Fei replied directly.

Taking Shanghai and Jinling as the pilot cities was Zhou Fei's long-awaited plan.

"The offline platform is finished, let's talk about the online platform construction. These are all the work of Dayang. Autohome is currently the only company in the group with independent software development capabilities." Zhou Fei looked at Jiang Yang continued.

Regarding the development of the online platform, it is mainly necessary to clarify the specific functions of the platform. As discussed by the three people in the morning, the online platform must be able to detect the dynamics and performance status of each vehicle in real time. Be the first to sound the alarm.

At the same time, the online platform must also have billing and other additional functions, and it is best to be able to connect to the transportation departments of various places to facilitate subsequent supervision.

"The functions that Brother Fei mentioned should not be a problem to develop. We have rich experience in developing mobile client and web client. As for real-time monitoring of the specific location of each vehicle, Gaoteng Map can send It will come in handy, and when the platform is developed, I will let Gao Teng participate in it."

Jiang Yang replied thoughtfully while listening.

"That's all the current work. I will also attend the high-level meeting of Autohome tomorrow. I will announce this matter first, so that everyone has an idea. As for the specific work arrangement, you Just distribute it according to the actual situation.”

"In addition, once the platform is built and the vehicle is launched, Lao Ma must be well connected with Dayang. The Tesla used for launch needs to be equipped with special positioning and operating systems, and cannot be compared with normal sales vehicles. Mixed up." Zhou Fei looked at Ma Huafu and added.

The next morning, Zhou Fei and Ma Huafu attended the high-level meeting of Autohome. At the meeting, Jiang Yang officially announced the news that the group will hand over the shared business to Autohome, and also gave a general introduction Let’s talk about the specific connotation of sharing and the development plan of Mercedes-Benz travel.

"Sharing is another key development direction of the group after electrification and intelligence, so I hope that everyone can fully fulfill the mission entrusted to us by the group and live up to Mr. Zhou's expectations of us."

Immediately after announcing this decision, Jiang Yang allocated the next work to each department, and asked each department to pay attention to information exchange and cooperation between departments while doing their own work well.

After the meeting, the sharing strategy of Mercedes-Benz Group will be officially launched. There is no doubt that Mercedes-Benz will be the first to eat crabs on the road of sharing.

"In the afternoon, we will divide into three teams to do their respective work well, and strive to build the offline platform in March this year. As for the online platform, I hope that at least June can be completed. There are two rounds of internal testing, and trial operation will start in July. Of course, these are just my estimated time points, and the specific arrangements will depend on the progress of your work."

After coming out of the meeting room, Zhou Fei said while walking.

"We will try our best to complete various tasks according to the time point Fei Ge said, and we will definitely be able to carry out trial operation in August at the latest." Jiang Yang promised.

The main part of the platform construction work is on Autohome's side. As long as Jiang Yang can control the time, the whole project will be fine.

"Okay, I won't say the unnecessary words, communicate well at any time, and I will come again after a while." Zhou Fei nodded.

In the afternoon of that day, Zhou Fei and Ma Huafu returned to Shencheng together, and began to rush around for the development of sharing.
