Chapter 450 Tengfei P6
Tengfei New Energy's first car is positioned as an extended-range vehicle.
The main reason for this is the current battery technology has some obvious flaws.
Take a car for example, just the cost of the battery accounts for more than half.
Drive it for two or three years, and this battery will continually degrade.
Consequently reducing the driving range if you wanted to replace it, the cost of the battery alone could account for 50% of the entire vehicle's cost.
Clearly, this does not align with the current consumer expectations.
What's more crucial is that there's still a lot of skepticism about pure electric vehicle technology domestically.
Hence, Tengfei New Energy has taken a different approach to invent extended-range vehicles.
In simple terms, such cars can be driven on both fuel and electricity, perfect for long-distance travel.
The fuel in the tank generates electricity through a range extender, converting it to electric power to drive the vehicle.
The combined driving range can reach approximately 600 kilometers.
And at this time, the cost per kilometer for electricity consumption is just under 0.1 yuan.
If calculated based on driving ten thousand kilometers a year, this could save a considerable amount of money over the year.
Additionally, a digital smart cockpit has been created for the entire vehicle.
Equipped with a 15.7-inch LCD dual-screen, along with a cockpit chip.
With just one click, the car owner can activate various functional settings.
Millisecond response time, supporting HUD digital heads-up display, 256-color ambient lighting, independent air conditioning with automatic temperature control, negative ion air purifiers, and powerful noise reduction functions, among others.
All of these were achieved through the collaborative efforts of tens of thousands of engineers over two years.
He also spent ten billion to purchase full vehicle technology from abroad, it can be said that.
Once Tengfei P6 is launched, it will have an epoch-making impact on the entire domestic new energy sector.
Of course, the premise is that it must pass professional technical tests.
Ensuring this car can run five thousand kilometers without a single fault.
And such testing is not just for one vehicle; at least a hundred units must start synchronously.
If one vehicle has an issue, all work must come to a halt.
Then analyze and improve.
The reason for this complexity is mainly because cars represent not just a mode of transit.
But more importantly, the life safety of the vehicle owners.
Tengfei P6 is positioned as a family SUV, the price is yet to be determined.
Specific details will have to wait until the tests are over, the actual vehicle will soon be ready.
It's tentatively scheduled to officially undergo comprehensive testing at the end of May, which will include a series of technical tests such as mileage and low-temperature resistance, anti-collision, etc.
A total of one hundred units, all of which must be completed and confirmed to have no issues.
Then they will start to hit the market.
Chen Pingsheng had been listening to reports for five hours on this side, from the brand-new extended-range technology.
To AI intelligent driving assistance and the creation of digital smart cockpits.
He listened to detailed explanations for every small detail.
As early as this year's World Cup began, Tengfei P6 had already launched global advertising and marketing.
Domestically, there hasn't been a large-scale advertisement push yet.
Chen Pingsheng himself is very satisfied with this Tengfei P6.
This vehicle isn't just assembled; it's entirely completed by their own ecological chain.
Such integrated production ensures very strict quality control.
The common problem of minor issues with domestic cars can also be resolved once and for all.
There's roughly half a year's time left before the Tengfei P6 officially goes on sale.
By then, this will also be Tengying Group's truly first technology product.
This marks the traditional entertainment industry boss officially transitioning into the technology industry.
Achieving the group's strategic goals over many years and naturally joining the country's secondary industrial transformation.
As he was listening to the reports here, on the outside, Luo Shihao and Chu Ting had been sitting from noon until night.
Their stomachs were growling, but they didn't dare leave for an instant.
Only when Chen Pingsheng came out, Luo Shihao confusingly asked a question.
"Why are you still here?"
Luo Shihao was at a loss for words. He very much wanted to say it wasn't your secretary who asked me to come here, right?
But of course, he definitely couldn't say that at this moment.
It seems to him that the secretary didn't report to Big Boss inside.
Which is understandable, as he's a newcomer after all, and the Big Boss was inside attending a high-level meeting.
How could he pay attention to him?
"I've been waiting for you on purpose."
"Oh, I see, haven't you had dinner yet? Want to join us?"
Luo Shihao hadn't had the chance to reply when Chu Ting gave him a hard pinch on the side.
Hurry up and agree, hurry up.
Somewhat embarrassed, he nodded his head; his stomach was growling – of course, he'd want to go eat.
Chen Pingsheng took them both along, casually asking about how his job application went.
Luo Shihao replied that he was waiting for news.
That probably wasn't too bad; if it were a no, they would've rejected him outright.
Wouldn't make someone wait for days for nothing.
There are not a few restaurants outside the Science and Technology City, but he didn't dine there; instead, he drove them to the Peace Hotel.
After all, they'd waited for him for hours unintentionally, so he had to treat them to a good meal.
The Peace Hotel was very famous during the Republican Era, allegedly owned by Du Yuesheng.
No matter how much trouble you caused outside, once you step into the Peace Hotel, not a single person dares to catch you.
That's how impressive it is.
The Peace Hotel was established in 1929, situated along the Huangpu River.
Located at the intersection between The Bund and Nanjing Road, it's a well-known landmark in Magic City.
Those who can dine in such a place, they all have a bit of elegance.
Because the average cost per person was at least in the thousands.
When opening that menu, better let them order for themselves.
Luo Shihao claimed he couldn't quite understand it. Enjoy more content from My Virtual Library Empire
And the Lin Qiunan he found particularly attractive was obviously the Big Boss's secretary.
With such a woman being a secretary, her work must be full of passion every day.
If there's work, the secretary works; if there's no work – well…
Tsk… That would truly be the peak of life.
No wonder Luo Shihao kept thinking this way, mainly because Lin Qiunan was indeed beautiful.
Most boys or young men barely have any resistance against her.
Those who are shy or have low self-esteem wouldn't even dare to look up more than a few times.
"Old Chen, when your P6 is officially released, I want to order one first."
"Why, didn't you just get a Mercedes-Benz S-Class?"
"That won't do, I really want one after listening to your presentation today."
Jiang Hong wanted to buy P6, one reason was she indeed had the purchasing power.
Her home didn't lack those hundreds of thousands, and another reason was to support her husband Yao Shan's career development.
Just think, when your company's cars are ready, and even the employees aren't willing to proactively buy, or even don't want to at all.
At that time, how can you expect potential customers outside to spend?
Chen Pingsheng certainly wouldn't be like a certain air-conditioning giant, who after releasing a phone, actually used a personal portrait as the boot-up screen.
If such a phone could sell well, it would absolutely be suspicious.
P6 wants to sell well; it has to rely on genuine customer experiences and truly good driving performance.
Nonetheless, internally within the group, there'll definitely still be a large group of people who will reserve it first.
Sales aren't something to worry about.
"Sure, when P6 comes out, I'll have Little Yao buy one for you," Chen Pingsheng said casually.
"Cut it out… as if you didn't say that at all." Little Yao's money is still her money.
Jiang Hong occasionally comes to the Peace Hotel too, only two or three times a year.
In this kind of place, if you're not extremely wealthy, you hesitate to even order from the menu.
