Chapter 539 - 239: The Cost of Business Warfare
Huang Zhilong suddenly felt a bit sorry for Ning Hao, but he quickly tossed the thought aside.
Feeling sorry is bullshit. In this world, it’s survival of the fittest.
The people he can sleep with for six hundred bucks, others might need tens of thousands to marry, it’s normal.
Perhaps one day he’ll fall for a woman, but she’s already been played out by others.
He might not feel entirely comfortable with this car, but it’s definitely profitable.
Currently, the speculation about shares in Wanliu Capital’s closed fund is intense, a portion worth three hundred and fifty thousand, people are even willing to pay two hundred thousand.
However... the Extreme Shadow Cars app points can’t be transferred, they aren’t tradable, so most of it is just talk online.
Maybe Ning Hao’s parents never thought that buying a car could not only avoid losing money but also make money.
During the meal, the matchmaker said a lot of good words in between, and the girl basically agreed. Since the family can provide this opportunity, they will definitely not miss it.
To them, the view is limited, their future thoughts are marrying a wife, having kids, sending them to school, then betting again in college.
They wouldn’t think about starting a business, even though Ning Hao already has the capital.
That capital is meant to get a wife.
Any leftover money is meant for future expenses.
Put in the bank is the only financial management they understand.
When someone is willing to pay for this car, they don’t immediately think that if it can earn so much, wouldn’t it mean keeping it could earn more?
Instead, due to their inherent perception, they think it’s luck to meet a sucker.
Ning Hao’s mom nudged his arm, telling him to hurry up and sell.
But Ning Hao felt annoyed.
At tonight’s dinner, everyone’s talking about what he should do, whatever the girl says is what goes.
He is indeed a bit ordinary, and his job isn’t easily accepted by others.
But why, even at this moment, does everyone still think he bought the wrong car?
Not selling is the biggest mistake.
"I’m not selling! This is my car, no one gets it!"
...
...
In the car world, they’ve always viewed the affairs of Extreme Shadow Cars as spectators.
Li Yang’s internet car-making is similar to Boss Jia.
But Boss Jia’s "return to the country next week" slogan has been shouted for half a year, and all they’ve got is a car badge; they haven’t even seen the wheels.
How could someone like him make cars? Without foundation, trying to rashly enter an industry with such a high degree of industrial integration?
Even at Extreme Shadow Cars’ press conference, not many attended.
Extreme Shadow Cars didn’t pay media, nor invited them over to cover; very few media personnel attended.
However, due to Li Yang’s influence, a lot watched the online conference, as many as three or four million.
Once Li Yang announced the price of 349999, most felt the fun was over.
What’s left to see?
Li Yang indeed made cars, but he surely couldn’t sell them.
Tesla can sell for forty, fifty thousand, but it’s an import.
How could you, a domestic car, sell at such a price?
And what did Li Yang babble about at the press conference?
All blabbering about using some domestic company’s parts with the world’s most amazing technology.
Pretending to be fools?
Commercially, you can’t say you have domestic stuff at all.
Look at President Lei, every time he does a press conference, he first says his product uses the latest Qualcomm chip, camera from some foreign company, some foreign technology...
Domestic and the best don’t link up at all.
The domestic manufacturers Li Yang mentioned, if not lacking choices, who’d use them?
All sorts of unknown brands are sourcing them, because costs are low.
Yet, looking at Li Yang’s disclosed car cost, it isn’t low.
Extreme Shadow Cars managed to gather all the elements of commercial failure into one.
Domestic, expensive!
However, these thoughts were all yesterday.
Early today, discovering Extreme Shadow Cars’ orders exceeded four thousand, everyone was dumbfounded.
This thing can get four thousand orders?
With all the effort to import parts, buy technology, and make our cars, why can’t they sell?
They sell even less expensively.
Not until they figured out the truth.
"Damn it, playing like this, isn’t it obvious giving money to users?"
"Coach, Extreme Shadow Cars are pulling tricks, they violated rules!"
"How can they provide users financial management limits? Isn’t it a violation?"
"Report! Report!"
...
In finance, there are indeed many rules.
For example, public funds can never promise users principal or earnings at any time.
However... public funds’ sources are restricted less than private ones.
It isn’t without marketing linked to finance, like Alipay’s numerous promotions, offering financial quotas, discounts, even waiving management fees.
But people don’t trust it.
Being fooled once buying your product, should they buy your financial plan to be fooled again?
Wanliu Capital is different, it has accumulated a reputation, it’s the trust after one hundred and twenty thousand users made money.
A few thousand buying cars among one hundred and twenty thousand users is normal, isn’t it?
Li Yang didn’t mention finance at the conference, Extreme Shadow Cars’ purchase points can be exchanged not only for finance limits but for other things.
...
Huichuan Power is a four hundred billion market cap company on the A-shares, neither too big nor too small.
