Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant.

Chapter 534 Jinshan Fu Sheng

Qiancheng is a fuel vehicle, Geometry is a pure electric vehicle, sedans and falcon-wing door SUVs are medium and large vehicles, and the third model is a medium-sized SUV. The design requirement is dual-motor four-wheel drive, which is more powerful. Technically it is definitely not as good as the one seven or eight years later. ModelY, but it’s good enough.

"How about giving up on the falcon wing door design?"

"Why?" Qu Li

"You have to control R&D investment, staff size, and..." Zhang Qinan

"..." Qu Li was a little embarrassed

"We have spent a lot of money on the design of the falcon wing doors. Should we use rear drive or dual-motor all-wheel drive for this medium and large car? Have you calculated how many cars you need to sell to make back the money?" Zhang Qinan was quite excited: "I just said I am oblivious."

Well, Qu Li never cares about costs. Honor has a profit of 100 billion US dollars a year. Money is not a problem. The problem is that you can’t spend money randomly.

"Do you want to be a luxury car brand, BBA, or Volkswagen Toyota?"

"It can only be the latter." Qu Li knows that the logic of electric vehicles may be different from that of fuel vehicles, and it is unknown how many brands will exist in the end.In order to survive, he had no other option but to face the difficulties and expand the scale of production and sales.

"Then the falcon wing door is so cool and can enhance the brand image of the car, just give up?"

"I didn't say to give up, we can wait until our mid-size SUV is successful..."

"The cost of the dual-motor four-wheel drive solution can't be low, right?"

"There's still nothing we can do about it."

Qu Li doesn't want to become a BBA, but his strength doesn't allow it. He can only start from the high and play the low, and slowly transform from a high-end brand to a civilian brand.

"Since we are not developing a Falcon Wing Door SUV, we will make a plug-in hybrid as soon as possible." Qu Li will not let them idle, 996 is a must.After the acquisition of Saab, in order to make profits as soon as possible, the research and development of hybrid-specific engines was postponed and the existing engines were modified.

It is still a DMi idea, using a simple structure to realize complex functions, mainly using electricity and supplemented by oil. The feed fuel consumption is controlled at about 5L, and the comprehensive fuel consumption is 3L.

Don’t think this number is outrageous. The fuel consumption of the Honda Accord and Volvo XC90 plug-in hybrids is controlled at around 2L. Why was such “awesome” technology later dismissed by BYD DMi? I don’t know who was bragging.

“Can our plug-in hybrid come out next year?”

"..."

"What about the year after next?"

"possible."

"Hey!" Qu Li sighed. He remembered that after the Ukraine incident, oil prices plummeted, and the biggest advantage of plug-in hybrids, energy saving and fuel saving, could not be displayed, so the only choice was battery life.This is good, as it can resolve consumers’ biggest concerns about buying pure electric vehicles, and the direction will not be wrong.

When Qiancheng Geometry was doing engineering research and development, Qu Li was asked by Lei Jun to go to Kingsoft Software. Last year, the revenue was 16 billion and the loss was 1 million.However, revenue began to accelerate in the first quarter of this year. After all, Kingsoft has three aces, "Jiangxia", "LOL" and "Minecraft".

What opinions can Kingsoft’s shareholders have?It’s useless to have opinions, because no one will listen to them anyway.

Under the leadership of CEO Wu Shihong, corporate security business revenue has grown the fastest, office software has begun to reduce advertising, and users have increased, but revenue has not increased.

Qu Li didn't say anything at the shareholders' meeting. He was still satisfied with Kingsoft's current situation. The growth of WPS takes time, and it should be right to insist on making it a SaaS platform through subscription.Kingsoft Antivirus also needs to strengthen its security team and build credibility, and the fast disk will be renamed Kingsoft Cloud Disk...

"Now Jinshan finally has the same feeling as it did in the early years." After leaving Jinshan Company, Lei Jun and Qu Li recalled the past. Without Qu Li's involvement, they might have split various business segments of Jinshan into independent companies. Subsidiary companies are naturally different now.

In the past, Kingsoft had ideals but no direction, but now Kingsoft has direction and ideals. Although it focuses more on B-end customers, at least its goals are clear. I was originally worried about whether it could make money. Now three games have been accepted one after another, and the prospects are bright.The reaction to the capital market is that the stock price has risen and the market value has exceeded 100 billion. This is because Kingsoft is losing money.

"The arrival of Qu Li has injected room for imagination into Kingsoft." Some media commented on the reasons for the rise in Kingsoft's stock price. This was obviously unreasonable. He also adjusted the direction of business operations, improved the organizational structure of the game department, and promoted innovation vitality. .To put it simply, the game development department and the operation department are separated to reduce factors that interfere with creation, and a lot of game talents are poached from NetEase and Goose Factory.

Lei Jun, however, looks further. At least his already-formed "wind outlet" theory does not seem to have been mentioned in public. What he says most is: "Return to the essence of business and create products that touch people's hearts based on user needs!" "

The two of them were walking together. Lei Jun talked about Zhang Hongjiang of Microsoft. This man later became the CEO of Kingsoft. Unfortunately, those who are engaged in technology and management are always inferior.

"Then let him do cloud computing." Qu Li doesn't think that laymen can't lead experts. The key is ability, otherwise Ahri will not let the CFO be the CEO.

"Compete with Jumeiyun?" Lei Jun said

"Your courage is commendable!" Qu Li praised. Jumei and Ali have invested heavily in this field and are already ahead of their peers. Of course, this does not mean that there are no opportunities. A public cloud computing company established this year was later listed on the A-share market. Kingsoft Cloud also has a market value of US$10 billion.

"Then you can only choose OpenStack." Lei Jun seemed to have never heard of it. Jumei is really powerful and will take more and more initiative in the future.

OpenStack is an open source cloud computing infrastructure platform. Later, except for Alibaba, all domestic cloud computing companies built "self-developed" cloud computing on this platform. Chrysanthemum Factory was particularly outstanding. Encyclopedia shows that it started cloud computing in 2005 and is the "leader" in this industry. Ancestor".

Kingsoft still has advantages in cloud computing. It has many WPS users and was originally a good platform. Now it has transformed into a professional network security company. These advantages are not available to others.Kingsoft Cloud has not developed. It is most likely due to lack of money and investment. The development of WPS is a bit slow. Otherwise, it can completely follow the route of Microsoft Azure and office365.

Qu Li also briefly talked about some of the subsequent development directions and functions of WPS. Cloud computing includes not only public cloud IaaS, but also software as a service SaaS.

"WPS can be built by itself, or it can become an open platform to attract products from Kingdee UFIDA or other start-up companies that meet the standards." Qu Lizhen feels that WPS has great growth potential, but it is just a step ahead. In the future, collaborative offices, online video conferencing, etc. Yes, it can all be done through WPS.

Lei Jun didn't find it strange after hearing this. Qu Li seemed to particularly like openness. The acquisition of Canada's e-commerce website building platform Shopify opened it up to third parties, and Tongda Network was even more open.

"There is another person named Fu Sheng. He came from 365 and had some unpleasant troubles with Zhou Hongyi." Lei Jun talked about one of the people he invested in. He initially wanted to incorporate it into Jinshan's system, but Qu Li's influence on Jinshan was The change was too big, so it was delayed, and then Fu Sheng's entrepreneurial project was close to bankruptcy...

"You can be optimistic, but what we need is not security guards, but professional capabilities. The ability to protect the virus killing rate is the key..." Qu Li added

"I want him to be in charge of mobile tool apps." Lei Jun

"Oh, it's pretty good." Qu Li

"Do you want to meet me?" Lei Jun sent out an invitation, wanting Qu Li to check it. After all, this is one of the few client development geniuses in the country.

"Forget it, there's no need." Qu Li didn't like Fu Sheng very much: "By the way, we can develop an APP for sharing WiFi..."
