Automotive Black Technology Chapter 1588: : This is why I established this brand

After receiving a hero's reception at the Williams team headquarters, Li Fanyu had to delay another day. He is currently the largest shareholder of the team, and he still needs to win over the following team managers and those who hold employee shares.
After completing the post-race analysis of the two engines used in the British F1 Grand Prix the next day, Cheng Ke, who had been wandering for more than ten days, reluctantly took Alonso and Lou Lu with him. After they rushed to Italy, they immediately began to estimate that this little girl would be busy again at the next station.
Since then, Li Fanyu can finally take a break and devote his energy to the preparation of the dark horse brand. With an engineer like Wang Rui and a group of people drawn from the British branch of Zhengxin, he came to the dark horse factory near London.
The Black Horse Factory was converted from a temporary assembly plant of Rolls-Royce. The building it is located in is an arsenal built during World War II. At that time, the factory was dedicated to assembling Spitfire fighter jets for the Royal Air Force. It was later taken over by Rolls-Royce and turned into an assembly plant for Rolls-Royce cars.
The main reason why I chose this place is that Li Fanyu thinks this place is really cool!
Around the factory, you can still see the craters left by the Luftwaffe bombings. On both sides of the factory, there are still several Spitfire fighter jets that were hastily assembled but were destroyed in the bombing.
Although the hardware in the factory was extremely crude due to Rolls-Royce's previous manual work methods, before the start of the F1 British race, he had already had it renovated and urgently allocated equipment from the Chinese department. A batch of micro-series machine tools for precision machining.
At this time, the factory entrance has been renovated by Li Kai. The neat pressing road has been repaired for aesthetic reasons, and the rusty Spitfires and Seafires have also been renovated and turned into oversized sculptures, which are neatly displayed on both sides of the factory.
Inside the factory with the huge black prancing horse logo, Li Fanyu was quite satisfied when he saw the pure white soundproof decoration, the precision parts processing area, and the rows of manual workstations.
Li Kai, who was responsible for the preparations for the new factory, saw him nodding his head and immediately stepped forward to claim credit: "Hey, boss, is this a good job?"
Li Fanyu nodded, "Pretty good!"
Li Kai rubbed his hands and said, "Look, I'm going to settle things with Angelila next month. Can I give her a honeymoon vacation or something?"
Li Fanyu gave him a meaningful look, "Brother, marriage is the grave of love. Are you sure you want to get married?"
Li Kai nodded seriously.
Seeing that this guy didn't look like he was joking, Li Fanyu could only beat the mandarin duck. Now the group has fully launched its European market layout. As a bridgehead to enter Europe, British Zhengxin will soon have its biggest role since its establishment. Under these circumstances, a honeymoon is definitely out of the question, and a three-day trip to London is just fine.
Wang Rui on the side was not as excited as Li Fanyu when he arrived. As the person in charge of XCAR, he had stayed in Zhengxin's industrial base for a long time. He really couldn't stand a factory of this size.
Not only that, he deeply didn't understand Li Fanyu's decision to waste energy and insist on creating a new supercar brand when Zhengxin already had XCAR, a department specializing in the production of high-performance sports cars.
"Brother Fan, XCAR hasn't released a new car for a long time. If you really want to make a supercar, why don't you just leave this job to us? Why do you have to spend so much effort and money on this dark horse?"
Obviously, Wang Rui’s question reflects the sentiments of many Zhengxin engineers present.
In terms of the performance of supercars, XCAR currently ranks first in the entire sports car world, not to mention Chunjun, which has already broken the Guinness World Record for car prices, or the Jinye R, which shined on the Le Mans track. Or the Longbow, which is now regarded as a god-level street car by car fans. XCAR's product array has covered all aspects of the sports car segment.
Furthermore, according to Li Fanyu’s instructions, this dark horse brand is mainly based on F1 technology and modified for civilian use.
One thing you need to know is that the Fetype engine is currently being developed, and the XCAR part is also responsible for it. So in his opinion, if Li Fan foolishly creates a new brand, it will be a waste of money and people.
Everyone agreed with Wang Rui, and Li Fan smiled foolishly.
How could he not have considered these things?
But in his opinion, the dark horse, that is, Ferrari before its historical mileage has not changed, is completely necessary to exist at this time and at this location.
Reason?
At present, Zhengxin has used highly advanced electric solutions to greatly promote the development of the world's automotive industry. As far as Zhengxin's current products are concerned, except for Hongguang, which is aimed at the lowest-end market, most of the models have already launched electric versions on the market.
Take the Audi segment as an example. The current sales proportion of A4L, A6L, electric versions of urban commuter sedans, has increased from less than 5% to the current 17%.
With the continuous expansion and improvement of the Zhengxin charging base station network in China, and with the continuous expansion of Zhengxin Energy and Tangdian Group across the country, the coverage and utilization rate of stratospheric power stations is getting higher and higher, and the era of electric vehicles is about to begin. It's coming soon.
As a result, the era of internal combustion engines, which has been developed for decades, is coming to an end.
According to statistics compiled by Zhengxin Group, within the next five years, the Chinese automobile market is expected to have the new increase in electric vehicles equal to that of traditional internal combustion engine vehicles. In the next ten to fifteen years, the usage rate of internal combustion engine vehicles will drop back to 30%, which is called a complete unpopularity.
All of this indicates that the era of the internal combustion engine is coming to an end.
In this turbulent time of dynasties changing, Li Fanyu wants to bring a perfect end to internal combustion engine cars and present the era of gasoline and machinery...the final glory!
So at this time, when faced with Wang Rui's question, he gave his own answer: "XCAR is my dream. The purpose of creating this brand was to make the automotive industry become valuable because of the existence of this brand. It’s different. If you carefully observe the development of XCAR, you will find that every model is a breakthrough and an innovation. But what we want to do is not to innovate, but to maximize the existing internal combustion engine technology. And keep this style going. ”
Speaking of this, he looked at Wang Rui and others, and said solemnly: "What I want is that many, many years later, there will be no internal combustion engine cars on the roads of this world. If when people When it comes to purely internal combustion engine cars, the first thing that comes to mind is not Mercedes-Benz, Euroleague, or Switzerland, but... Zhengxin Dark Horse!
This is why I want to establish this brand. ”
