Let you build cars, and you will be happy to produce them?

imperial capital.

Audi headquarters.

When Lin Qingyu got Audi's vehicle sales data from the Imperial Capital Auto Show, her lips lit up with joy.

In just seven days of the auto show, Audi's sales reached 2 units at the auto show.

A large part of the reason for this is that with the impact of new energy vehicles, the prices of traditional fuel vehicles are all plummeting.

The same goes for Audi's cars. The prices of all series have plummeted. As long as they can be sold, they will be given ample discounts.

Many major hot-selling models have discounts of up to 20%.

New energy vehicles have a huge impact on traditional fuel vehicles.

In addition to these reasons, of course, competitors have stopped selling.

One's reputation collapsed, and the other's reputation was ruined.

Then out of nowhere, Audi got up.

"This...is really a good thing."

Isn't that a good thing? In the field of luxury cars, Audi has always been suppressed by BMW and Mercedes-Benz.

Although Audi also had a period of glory, it was only for a period of time.

At other times, it has always ranked third in terms of sales. Even for all Audi models, it has always given huge discounts, while Mercedes-Benz and BMW not only did not reduce prices, but also increased prices.

In this case, Audi's sales cannot beat the first two.

It’s not that Audi doesn’t work hard enough, it really can’t compete.

Now the surprise came too suddenly, how could Lin Qingyu be unhappy.

"If we can keep up with the publicity and brand image in the future, maybe the sales volume set by the headquarters and FAW this year can be completed ahead of schedule."

Lin Qingyu was in a happy mood, sitting at her desk, tapping her fingers on the table, looking at documents, and drinking coffee.

"Whisper, whisper..."

At this moment, the office door opened, and a woman with blond hair, over 7 meters tall, and a figure that made people want to commit a crime opened the door and walked in.

After she came in, she started to complain: "Dear, I'm so angry. I was just discussing Audi's transition to new energy with the engineers at the headquarters."

"As a result, not only the headquarters was opposed, but FAW also reacted fiercely."

Her name is Hannah, and she is the vice president of Audi domestic company.

Hannah is only 28 years old this year and can become Audi's vice president.

Besides her abilities, the most important thing is her last name.

Her name is Hannah Porsche.

Hearing her words, Lin Qingyu chuckled: "Hannah, I know you want to achieve results, but you can't rush the transformation of a brand. The head office has already started planning."

"But you know, when it comes to new energy vehicles, our Volkswagen Group is really not strong enough, not even as good as Mercedes-Benz."

Whether it's Audi, Volkswagen, Porsche, or Bentley.

All belong to the Volkswagen Group.

All Volkswagen brands have basically the same technology.

In the field of fuel vehicles, Volkswagen Group's R&D strength is definitely the first in the world.

But when it comes to new energy vehicles, it’s just so-so.

Nowadays, new energy vehicles are the future trend. Not only domestic car manufacturers are working hard to develop new technologies, but they are willing to roll up the volume.

Major international manufacturers also want to transform.

But some things cannot be transferred if you want to.

When it comes to buying cars in China, there is a saying that if you want to buy a new energy vehicle, you have to buy Tesla and domestic new energy vehicles. Other than that, they are all miscellaneous brands.

The most important thing for Hannah when she came to China was to promote Audi's transformation from fuel vehicles to new energy vehicles.

But transformation is never that simple. If you want to transform, you must have the skills.

Audi has a shit now, it has nothing.

Hannah knew this too.

"Qingyu, I'm thinking that the most important thing about new energy now is batteries. I've done some research. Tesla and BYD's batteries are for their own use and will not be used by other brands."

"Although Ningde's batteries are supplied to the world, there are too many conditions. I sent someone to negotiate, and the other party's conditions were very harsh."

"What the R&D center means is that as long as we can solve the battery problem, the R&D center will be able to produce Audi's first pure electric vehicle in the shortest possible time."

"But it's not like you don't know those old men in the R&D center. They look down on the bad ones, but they don't look down on the good ones."

“Where can we find a suitable battery partner?”

Hannah is helpless. Now Audi lacks a strong partner who can not only provide battery supply, but more importantly, can provide technical support for pure electric vehicles.

"Hannah, actually I have an idea, but I don't know if it will work."

Lin Qingyu also knew what Hannah was thinking. She was eager to make achievements and gain recognition from her family.

"what idea?"

"Well, do you still remember what I told you about Wuling Motors that day?" Lin Qingyu looked at Hannah.

"Remember, I just read the report. Wuling Motors sold 23 new cars in the seven days of the Imperial Auto Show."

Hannah nodded. Wuling was so famous recently, how could he not know about it.

"That's right." Lin Qingyu said, "Have you noticed the solid-state battery released by Wuling Motors?"

“Have they released the batteries?”

Hannah was confused. Although she knew about Wuling, that was all she knew. She didn't pay any attention to what technologies Wuling had released.

Because she just arrived in China not long ago.

"It was released. I didn't care about it before, but then I accidentally studied the data of this solid-state battery. Really..."

"The data of this battery is so amazing. It is even much better than the battery data of Tesla and BYD."

If it weren't for the past two days, Lin Qingyu would have studied Wuling's solid-state batteries.

I probably wouldn't pay attention to this, mainly because Lin Qingyu was present at the Wuling press conference that day, so I was deeply impressed by this solid-state battery.

I have been researching it again in the past few days and feel that if this battery technology is real, it would be amazing.

"Is it such an exaggeration?"

Hannah doesn’t believe that compared to Didi and Tesla, battery technology is the best in the world.

It is estimated that even Ningde can be more powerful than these two companies.

Can Wuling do it?

"I'm not sure now. Just looking at the data, Wuling's solid-state batteries are very powerful. Of course... I guess it's just the data on paper."

Lin Qingyu chuckled, and then said: "But aren't you looking for a reliable partner? Why don't we wait for Wuling's new cars to be delivered to users, and then buy two and come back to study them."

"If their solid-state batteries are really that strong, we can definitely cooperate with Wuling."

"I don't think they will say no."
