American Fortune Life

Xiaofei shoes have angrily existed in supporting new energy, especially with the innovation pioneer Tesla making notes, the slogan of 'Big Dreamer' Andy Smith's 'Asphyxiation for Dreams' becomes a special The starting point of the dream of Sla's trafficking, in the continuous marketing, a big bubble has blown ...

With the pursuit of a group of environmentalist allies, Tesla has become a good example to save the planet, and a group of Tesla's loyal fans are slowly being born.

Taking advantage of this upsurge, Tesla's official website posted a 10-minute video, which is a clip video of a Mercedes-Benz smart (elf) converted into an electric vehicle. The modification project includes the chassis, battery, motor and battery. Control system, and the whole process of testing.

Andy showed his face in this video, handsome looks, sunny smile, magnetic voice, calmly said: "Many people are telling us storytelling, bragging 13, buty. We have been bullying 13 ..."

In the picture, Andy raised an eyebrow, shrugged, and smiled confidently: "It's turning into reality!"

Then there is an animated demonstration of Andy's Internet self-driving car.

In the concept car of the models, the steering wheel of the vehicle is automatically folded and hidden under the front panel. When manual driving is needed, the steering wheel blooms like a flower petal ...

As this super-shock video was reprinted by major websites and TV stations, Tesla and Andy Smith once again became the leading edge of global innovative technology, which detonated the entire automotive industry and it industry for a while.

Internet driverless system?

Nyima, has Tesla already started to develop this high-tech burning technology?

In these two days, Tesla has become the world's most popular IT innovation company. The number of visits to Tesla's official website has skyrocketed. The most important thing is to make the sales of electric supercars that had fallen a little bit higher.

When the official order quantity came to 2,500 units, Tesla officially announced the closure of the order system for electric supercars. The electric supercars officially confirmed the decision to sell only 2,500 units in 28 countries and regions around the world.

As soon as this news came out, there was another uproar. Various speculations and statements were also made. The most talked about was Tesla's hungry sales.

No matter how the outside world guesses, after Tesla released this decision, it stopped responding to any questions. It seemed that it didn't care about the current popularity situation, and began to engage in production and R & D.

The reason for the limit of 2500 units is that the real reason is that Tesla's production capacity can't keep up. That's it. The time for the last unit to be delivered may also be in 2010.

No matter how big Andy's bubble is, there must be a realistic basis. In order to expand production capacity, it is undoubtedly necessary to build a new factory and recruit new workers. This is a great investment. Andy ca n’t go crazy. Continue Burn money into it.

He is waiting for the loan from the Ministry of Energy to be in place, waiting for the investors to send money to him and let Tesla burn!

That's right, Andy is about to call the hot iron, Tesla decided to start financing!

"Tell the representative of Daimler Benz, a $ 200 million 10% stake. This is my bottom line. If they want to, they can reach a deal. If they don't, I don't mind modifying one to impress BMW."

Andy told Tesla executives in the video that if it wasn't for Tesla's need to bring in partners for car construction, he wouldn't necessarily choose these traditional car companies. He would I want to cooperate with GM, but unfortunately, GM cannot guarantee it. If the US government does not save them, bankruptcy is only a matter of time.

The modification video of the Elven Car is to attract investors, and also achieved the goal as expected. Not only did Daimler Benz call the first time, even Toyota from the pedestal called to inquire about investment matters, and BMW naturally did not fall. .

Andy, who does not like the foot basin naturally, will not lead the wolf into the room. Although this time, Andy originally intended to open the lion and kill people, but for the huge return that Tesla's listing money may bring in the future, Andy is a bit Do not want to let the foot basin people take advantage of this.

The executives in the Tesla company meeting room heard the quote from the big boss. Although the expression on their faces remained the same, they were madly spitting in their hearts.

It's so dark!

This is to think about making money back from buying Tesla!

Nima, in just a few months, the big boss dared to shout a valuation of 2 billion, which is crazy!

However, if you calculate it, the valuation of 2 billion is not exaggerated. The sales of 2,500 units have reached more than 300 million US dollars, and the profit has more than 20 million. In addition, the 500 million low-interest loan from the Ministry of Energy, Sierra is not short of money. At this time, the introduction of Daimler was more about strategic cooperation needs.

"Okay, boss, we'll notify Daimler's negotiators later."

After Andy nodded, he looked at the executive in the third position on the left-hand side of the video and said, "John, how's the domain name going?"

The current Tesla Motors domain name is a bit lengthy. Since Tesla takes the Silicon Valley approach to everything from product development to sales, a genuine domain name is undoubtedly very critical.

As the director of Tesla's network division, John Bailey Hill reluctantly smiled bitterly: "Sorry, boss, there has been little progress. The domain name has been owned by Silicon Valley engineer Stug Grossman since 1992, and has been up to 16 It has not been used for many years, and the reason why he bought the domain name at that time was because of his close relationship with the inventor Nicholas Tesla. The domain name was purchased for his own use.

We have been trying to convince him to give up ownership of the domain name, but with little success ... "

The corner of Andy's mouth turned up, showing a sneer, and he waved his hand and interrupted the other party, saying, "I still don't have enough money! What price is it now?"

"$ 2 million ..."

"Add one million to talk about, and five million is the bottom line. If he is still greedy, give up. Although this is not perfect, I hate people who are greedy!" Andy said coldly.

"Understood, boss, we will find a way to get the domain name." Looking at the indifferent expression on the face of the young boss, John hurriedly expressed his heart.

"Next Monday, the 27th, the Ministry of Energy's loan will be credited. Although there is money, the R & D budget must be strictly controlled. We can afford failure, but we cannot accept useless failure and waste." Andy Major It was told to the chief engineer of Martin that this product was a bit overwhelming, and its ability to control costs was very bad. Andy had to equip him with a budget team to strictly control the research and development budget.

Martin shook his head with a helpless smile and did not feel angry or upset because of Andy's words. He had been kicked out of the game and returned to the company he founded. His mentality has changed a lot, and he can pay attention to this. It is very rare for the boss of R & D to work and give him a lot of freedom.

After the video conference, Andy didn't leave the study, but picked up the phone and called Arvitelle in New York.

"Al, I'll send you a fax in a few moments. Here are some of the domain names I need. You can have someone immediately apply for them all ..."

When talking about the Tesla domain name just now, Andy was thinking about squatting the domain name. It wasn't something he hadn't thought about before, but after he asked, it was a little depressed. For example, there are only four single-letter domain names in the world. The rest are all reserved by the registry, not to mention the domain names of English words such as diamonds, funds, etc., which have long been squatted out.

Andy is again interested this time, just thinking of robbing the future, for example, ...

Although the method of robbing Tianchao is a bit shameless, who knows what Andy knows best about Tianchao's emerging companies, and Tianchao's company is very concerned about the rectification of the name, and it will pay a large price to buy it. He will never miss the sale. 8)
