Door-to-door dragon son-in-law

An Kaifeng's speech made the world aware of Changying Automobile's ambitions, and the two families' decision to name the car brand after Ye Changying also showed everyone through practical actions that in this battle, the An and Ye families were betting not only their lifelong glory and honor, but also Ye Changying's.

Then, He Yuanjiang and Han Meiqing took the stage one after another.

As the CEO and CLO, or chief legal officer, of Changying Automobile, the two elaborated on their views and determination on the future development of Changying Automobile from their own professional perspectives.

The appearance of Han Meiqing made everyone realize Changying Automobile's determination.

Because no automobile company would focus on recruiting a former top lawyer to be the chief legal officer at the beginning of its business. Many companies do not even take legal affairs seriously. They always feel that such positions are not needed when nothing goes wrong and are useless when something goes wrong. As a result, many companies only truly realize the importance of legal affairs after continuously paying huge amounts of money and suffering losses.

The automotive industry, like the Internet industry, is a disaster area for commercial legal disputes. Without the support of an absolutely strong legal team, you will definitely run into pitfalls everywhere. Not only are patent-related intellectual property issues very tricky, but even car models may trigger trademark and patent disputes. Today you are developing a car in China and the model is named 123. Tomorrow you plan to sell this car to the United States. Suddenly, a local American car company may come with a bunch of documents and tell you, sorry, I have the rights to 123 in car naming and you must change the name.

Therefore, Changying Automobile placed the chief legal officer in a position second only to the chief executive officer right from the start, which showed that it was well prepared.

However, in stark contrast to Han Meiqing who received a lot of praise, He Yuanjiang, who has a strong bookish air and looks very gentle and elegant, has become the target of public suspicion.

Before the press conference ended, many people on the Internet began to criticize Changying Automobile's CEO selection as a failure.

Since He Yuanjiang had been working on Wall Street at the time, he was not well-known in China.

In the eyes of many Chinese people, he is just an amateur who appeared out of nowhere. In addition, he taught at Jinling University of Finance and Economics in the past few years and seemed to have nothing to do with the new energy industry. This made everyone somewhat worried that there might be some problems with Changying Automobile's selection of a leader.

Even after his resume was released via PPT at the press conference, there was no sign that this person's career had any connection with the automotive industry.

He worked in finance-related jobs on Wall Street, and became a finance professor in Jinling. It seems that the only thing about this person related to the automotive industry is that he probably has a driver's license.

As a result, some keyboard strategists and keyboard financiers immediately jumped out to criticize the company, saying that the two big families gambled everything for Changying Automobile, and finally pushed a novice to the table to complete the gamble for them, which was destined to be difficult to succeed;

Some people also use the Titanic as an example, saying that the ship was awesome and the people on board were awesome, except that the captain was an ambitious and idiotic person, but the destruction of this giant ship was caused by him.

However, only the parties involved know that He Yuanjiang's understanding of new energy vehicles cannot be judged simply by a professional perspective.

Even Xiao Churan couldn't help but say to Ye Chen after watching the press conference: "Husband, that Professor He is a university professor. The An family and the Ye family asked him to be in charge of a $40 billion project. Can he really do it? I just took a look at the comments online, and it seems that everyone is skeptical about him..."

Chen Yining on the side also said seriously: "I think it's hanging. Sometimes doing things is not about how much money you invest, but whether you use the right method. Otherwise, even if you have more money, you may not be able to do it well. The An family and the Ye family are indeed a bit hasty in selecting coaches. In my opinion, you must recruit people from the industry, and you must recruit the best people. Go to Tesla, Toyota, and the three new energy brothers. Take money and throw a group of top talents in various fields over. How can this thing be done?"

At this point, Chen Yining added: "If the company's series of decisions and investments go down the drain due to a mistake in selecting a head coach, then what will be left for Jinling may not be a $40 billion enterprise, but a $40 billion mess. The people of Jinling may be looking forward to Changying Automobile to boost the economic development of Jinling, but after a lot of trouble, they turn around and leave after discovering that it didn't work."

Ye Chen did not comment on Chen Yining's point of view. He knew that everyone has their own basic logic for judging things, and Chen Yining's judgment logic is the same as that of most people. They need to see more positive factors before they believe in the future of a project. If they do not see enough positive factors, or only see some key negative factors, they will feel that this matter has no future.

So, Ye Chen smiled slightly and said firmly: "I personally think that people who understand cars may not be able to make good cars, and people who can make good cars may not be able to sell good cars. So sometimes, to do something, you don't necessarily have to get some people who look very professional. Look at the most popular car reviewers on the Internet today. Which one has studied car manufacturing? Which one has worked in a car company? Many of them don't even seem to have been to college, but it doesn't stop them from making tens of millions or even more a year by talking about cars."

At this point, Ye Chen paused and continued: "From this we can see that in this world, once any academic discipline is separated from the academic itself and rises to the business field, it is definitely no longer a simple professional issue, because professionalism has no upper limit. If the world's top technology is concentrated on a car, not many people may be able to afford it. Instead, it deviates from the basic logic of business itself. It's like growing vegetables. We all know that organic and pollution-free agricultural products are the best, but if the whole world only grows organic and pollution-free agricultural products, more than half of the world's people will starve to death."

Chen Yining frowned and said, "Although what you said makes sense, I just paid attention to the public opinion on the Internet. It seems that everyone is full of doubts about Professor He's selection as CEO. This may mean that although professionals may not be able to do business well, it will be even more difficult for non-professionals to do this business well."

Ye Chen smiled and said, "This is just my personal opinion. I think if the opinions of netizens on the Internet represent the probability of business success, then the business model of this world would have collapsed long ago. On the Internet today, no less than one million people mock the thin skin and large fillings of ordinary Japanese family cars every day, but it did not prevent Toyota from selling more than 11 million cars worldwide in the past year. If a person can never figure out why Toyota can make so much money, then he will never be able to do well in the automotive industry. Being a spectator may be the best choice;"

After that, Ye Chen continued, "There are still many brainless boasters who always think that Boss Jia's Faraday Future is the originator of new energy vehicles and hope that he can make a comeback. However, this title of originator has been used for a full ten years. Today, ten years later, the total number of cars delivered by Faraday Future seems to be only twelve, and it is said that all of them were recalled due to certain problems. If these boasters were to make cars, they might not be as good as Boss Jia."

At this point, Ye Chen recalled the hot topic on the Internet some time ago, and said with a smile: "By the way, because the boss of Remi Automobile did not announce the price when he released the car, many friendly companies also reduced their prices at that time to sabotage him. At that time, the whole network was badmouthing Boss Lei, to the point that even the dogs at the village head wanted to shout "Jun'er". At that time, most people thought that he would fight this time, and he would fight a big one. Unexpectedly, the annual production of the car was sold in one day. Those who called him "Jun'er" before immediately swallowed the name and continued to call him President Lei or even Lei Busi with a shameless face, as if the word "Jun'er" had never come out of his mouth in his life."

"So, just from this point alone, we can be sure that a person or thing that everyone is pessimistic about may not necessarily be doomed to fail."

"Because in this world, the truth is always in the hands of only a few people."

“If you want to do something and people around you, whether you know them or not, say that it is impossible, don’t be discouraged. If you give it your all, you may be able to achieve something.”

“But if everyone says you can do something, then you must be very careful and think again and again, because if even the dogs in the village say you can definitely make money by doing this, then it is highly likely that you will not be the one to make the money.”

Ye Chen's humor made Chen Yining couldn't help laughing out loud. While laughing, she looked at Xiao Churan and said seriously: "Churan, your husband is really humorous."

After that, she asked Ye Chen: "Mr. Ye, I just happened to be writing a report when I go back. Can I quote some of your views just now?"

Ye Chen nodded and said casually, "You can use it as you like, and you can also do secondary creation and processing, but don't reveal my personal information. I am also an online troll who can only talk but not do anything. Don't let people know that I said this, otherwise those netizens will definitely criticize me, thinking that I, a loser who has never studied or worked in the automotive industry, am not qualified to talk and speak nonsense about the automotive industry."

Chen Yining smiled and said, "You've brought Chu Ran and I into this. If we use your point of view just now to judge, we are questioning Professor He simply because he has never worked in the automotive industry. It's a bit like a troll."

Ye Chen waved his hand: "You are different from those real trolls. As for the situation of Changying Automobile and Professor He, whether online or offline, everyone has the right to comment and express their own opinions. Whether it is pessimistic or optimistic, as long as it is simply expressing one's own opinions, there is no problem. However, trolls not only express their own opinions, but also attack all those who disagree with their opinions. Explanation and attack are the real trolls."

After that, Ye Chen continued: "But these don't really matter. For Changying Automobile, doubts are a good thing. On the one hand, it can spur the team to work harder, and on the other hand, it can rely on doubts to maintain enough popularity. The Internet is like this. If everyone praises you, you can be popular for three days; if everyone scolds you, you can be popular for three years; if some people praise you and some scold you, and the two sides have to fight from time to time, then you can't be popular for a lifetime!"
