Volume 3: Taking Roots 2016 Chapter 569 New Energy is the Future
If we ask what the end of the universe is, I believe many people can express some insights on this. After all, this is an empty topic that will not have an answer in the short term, and it is enough to accommodate all kinds of strange opinions.
However, the end of Internet entrepreneurship has pointed to the same answer for a period of time, that is, building cars!
The natural threshold for car manufacturing is there, and only the top bosses are destined to be qualified to get involved. After all, it is a project that starts with tens of billions of dollars, and no matter from which aspect, it is very likely to be a bottomless pit with a distant return.
Hundreds of billions may just be enough to meet the starting needs. God knows how much capital is needed to realize this great dream?
From this point of view, the big guys who dare to fire the first shot in car manufacturing and take the lead in stepping into this blue ocean of car manufacturing can definitely be called well-deserved heroes.
Of course, they could also be scammers, such as Leshi, which announced the launch of its supercar plan in 2014, firing the first shot in the "suffocation for dreams" campaign.
It directly won the title of the world's first Internet company to announce that it would build cars, and it was the talk of the town for a while. The super car project also became a hot topic in the investment circle.
Not only does it gather some old-established capital institutions with strong capital, but there is also the participation of some celebrity capitals that have been famous for many years. Among them, the most dazzling ones may be Zhang Yimou, Huang Xiaoming and others.
Now, nearly two years have passed, and Leshi Supercar has announced quite a few pieces of news, each one more important than the last, making investors feel as if they have seen the entire process of a car being created from scratch.
However, the thunder is much ado about nothing. Although the announced news is more promising than the last, the real stuff has not been released yet . It’s just that many people have not noticed this problem yet.
No matter how beautiful the bubble is, there will always be a moment when it bursts, and once the bubble bursts, everything in the past will become a dream bubble and disappear with the wind...
When Li Bin asked Zhou Dongsheng about his views on the future of new energy, the identity of the middle-aged man in front of him naturally became clear.
Because Leshi is the first Internet company in the world to announce its plan to build cars, and with the added bonus of being the first and being famous, the public naturally perceives Leshi as the first to take the plunge.
In fact, at the same time, another brand was established, which was almost one of the two carriages running side by side with Lux.
It’s just that it’s obvious that when it comes to sensationalism, Suffocation is even better, so much so that even though they were established at the same time, their momentum is completely not on the same level as the former.
This brand is naturally Weilai, and the person sitting in front of Zhou Dongsheng is naturally the founder Li Bin.
Compared with the series of marketing tactics of Suffocating Company that made a lot of noise but little results, Li Bin is obviously a more pragmatic boss who has been steadily advancing the research and development of Weilai electric vehicles.
At this time, Zhou Dongsheng suddenly had an epiphany: Isn't this the model of Mobike? Or to be more precise, as an angel investor of Mobike, his way of doing things also influenced Hu Weiwei to a certain extent.
Although those who can build cars are not necessarily big shots and may also be liars, the one sitting in front of Zhou Dongsheng is obviously a well-deserved big shot.
When he realized this, Zhou Dongsheng's mind became active, and a word closely related to the development of new energy suddenly burst out from his mind.
"Carbon neutrality"!
This problem at the national level is precisely the crucial driving force for the development of new energy. Whether it is policy encouragement or resource allocation, it has promoted the prosperity of new energy to some extent.
In other words, Suffocating Prince's operation was too advanced. If he had been able to catch this wave of spring breeze a few years later, he probably would not have ended up returning to China next week.
There is no doubt that new energy is a trend that has not yet taken off and is in the stage of accumulating strength. Moreover, this trend is so great that it is even enough to affect the game at the national level...
Zhou Dongsheng's mind was full of thoughts, but Li Bin was not in a hurry. He looked at Zhou Dongsheng with interest, looking forward to the answer from this young man.
"Since Mr. Li asked, let me talk about it briefly. Mr. Li asked me what I think about the future of new energy. My opinion is that new energy is the future!" Zhou Dongsheng said something like a wheel.
At first glance, this sounds like nonsense literature, but Li Bin didn't react at all.
Instead, he acted as if he wanted to hear more details and motioned for Zhou Dongsheng to continue.
"The future of new energy is, in a small sense, energy conservation and emission reduction, low-carbon emission reduction, and a direction that serves green travel..."
"Of course, this is just a high-sounding statement on the surface. The purpose can basically be summed up in three words: carbon neutrality!"
Li Bin's eyes lit up slightly. Being able to say these three words at least proved that Zhou Dongsheng had indeed paid attention to the development of the new energy industry.
This term was first mentioned abroad, and some developed countries were the first to use this concept, and only promoted it after it was effective.
It’s just that when the behavioral standards required of developed countries are extended to developing countries, they become a moral weapon to restrict the development of the latter.
At present, the concept of carbon neutrality is only circulated in a small circle and has not yet risen to the national policy level. It will take a few years before it becomes a key word.
Otherwise, the Suffocating Prince would not have run away, so Li Bin was a little surprised that Zhou Dongsheng knew this word.
"Although the concept of carbon neutrality is not new internationally, it will most likely become the international mainstream in the next few years. After all, foreigners are really good at being strict with others and lenient with themselves."
Zhou Dongsheng said in a teasing tone. Li Bin laughed dumbly and said casually: "Now I think Mr. Zhou looks a bit young."
Zhou Dongsheng chuckled and changed the subject to add a little bit of his own understanding.
"Even so, the most important reason why I believe that new energy can become the future is the right to speak!"
As soon as Zhou Dongsheng finished speaking, Li Bin couldn't help but perk up, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Zhou Dongsheng changed subtly.
"Oh? Tell me more about it."
Zhou Dongsheng couldn't help but feel moved when he noticed Li Bin's subtle changes. It seemed that his understanding made some sense.
If it was Zhou Dongsheng before his rebirth, he might have only had a vague understanding of the general trend of the times that was happening and being experienced. Ordinary people often have the opportunity to know something about the game involved only when the dust settles.
More likely, ordinary people don’t even have the qualifications to understand.
Now that Zhou Dongsheng has returned to his own world, he can clearly feel the trend of the times. Going with the trend can not only help him accumulate a certain amount of capital...
Zhou Dongsheng's vision and pattern have also been quietly improved, and a sense of self-confidence has been brewing in his mind.
By analogy, Zhou Dongsheng suddenly understood why the shared bicycle project was so popular, and why it remained strong even after a mess, and he took advantage of the situation to join the ranks of shared electric vehicles.
From this perspective, there may be reasons for strong policy encouragement and support.
After all, to adapt to the trend of the times, isn't that, to a certain extent, adapting to the trend of the country?
