Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant

Chapter 680 Preparation for the Future

Geometry GF 01 can quickly open up the US market. To say that it is within the expectations of Qiancheng Geometry’s executives would be an overestimation of them. Fortunately, this car follows the same standard at home and abroad, with only a few details adjusted.

Geometry GF 01 is Qiancheng CS6 plus. The domestic price starts from 129,800 to 180,000; the price of CS6 starts from 99,800 to 150,000; the price of CS8 starts from 149,800 to 200,000;

Through these two or four models of SUVs, Qiancheng Geometry covers the price range of 100,000 to 200,000 yuan, and continues to maintain the title of SUV sales champion. Statistically, CS6 and CS6 plus are divided into one series, and sales in July exceeded 30,000 ; Qiancheng CS8 series, sales in July actually exceeded 10,000 units.

This is still under the circumstances that foreign sales are not large. The transformation of the export version of Qiancheng CS8 plus is basically completed, and exports can be arranged in the second half of the year. The foreign name of this domestically-made SUV with a price of 33,000 to 40,000 US dollars is Geometry GF 03. In the future, the SUV will use odd numbers. Even numbers are used for cars, and I don’t know if this extended version can be as popular as CS6 plus.

The hot sale of GF 01 naturally needs to be told to domestic consumers, including the details that the two cars adopt the same standard, and to let potential consumers know that Qiancheng Geometry does not discriminate against domestic consumers, but instead gives the biggest discount.

Overseas sales have in turn boosted domestic sales. Some self-media have said in vertical media (Autohome) that Qiancheng CS 6plus is the most cost-effective domestic SUV.

The most affected by Qiancheng sales should be Beijin Hyundai IX35. The price is close, and the configuration performance is inferior in all aspects. However, the appearance, interior and Qiancheng are not the same. The fierce competition has caused its monthly sales to be less than 10,000.

Other joint venture vehicles, including Volkswagen Tiguan and Honda CRV, have steadily exceeded 10,000 monthly sales, and the Haval H6 has become the top 5 domestic SUV sales in the first half of the year. Others such as Hyundai IX35, Ford Maverick, and Toyota RAV4 all rank around 10,000 in monthly sales.

Qiancheng Geometry must be on the hook. Now it can be said that the brand influence is greater than its strength. Even the monthly sales of Qiancheng CS8 are almost over 10,000. Great Wall Haval H6 can compete with Qiancheng CS6 in all aspects, but the sales volume is less than half of that of Qiancheng CS6. Who can you blame?

Domestic self-owned brands have more and more advantages in the subdivision of SUVs. Changan UN35 sometimes sells more than 10,000 vehicles per month. BYD S6 also has a good performance. Chery’s Tiggo 3 seems to be very popular, and its sales are growing rapidly...

The success of Qiancheng Geometry in the SUV field did not attract too much attention from traditional car manufacturers at the beginning, because the total sales volume of domestic SUV cars last year was only 3.1 million, accounting for more than 10% has reached the limit, can it exceed 20%? impossible. However, this year, the sales of Qiancheng Geometry fuel vehicles still maintained a very high growth rate, which drove the overall domestic SUV sales to rise.

The sales volume of Qiancheng fuel vehicles in the first half of the year was 220,000, which is not a small number. Fortunately, the contracts signed with major suppliers such as Aisin are relatively strong, and there is no such thing as a gearbox supply cut-off. Of course, this has something to do with Toyota's inability to do well in the SUV segment. Qianchengtian Motors without cars is just "" niche brands".

In the five years from 2009 to 2014, no car was produced. What is it not a niche car brand? There are also A-share investors who believe that Future Geometry is relying on the concept of electric vehicles to flicker up the stock price.

Qu Li was wronged, with his worth, why would he do such a shameless thing? They also have a reason. Qu Li promised to donate all the shares in Jumei and Glory, but not including Future Geometry. This is his "private money".

There is almost no explanation for such a reason. It is impossible for Qu Li to promise to donate all his wealth again. If he really wants to do this, his influence will not increase, and it will make people feel that there is something wrong with his mind. Zuckerberg wants to avoid taxes, how does Qu Li avoid taxes in China?

However, starting from the reality of Qiancheng Motors, Qu Li was worried that the car could not be made well, and he was also worried that the car would be too good. Qiancheng Motors is now inseparable from Aisin, ZF's 6AT gearbox. Later, Aisin cheated GAC Trumpchi. If it is really necessary to cut off the gearbox for him, Qiancheng can only stop production, so he can only wait for the 7-speed wet DCT The gearbox has been successfully developed, and only with choices can we have the courage to compete.

Originally, it was not difficult to develop this gearbox in cooperation with Getrag, but to match the CMA architecture, not to mention redevelopment, there must be a lot of adjustments, including the steel chain CVT gearbox developed in cooperation with Chery, Aisin or ZF's AT gearbox.

From the engine, gearbox to the chassis of the car, Qiancheng does not want to be "autonomous and controllable", but to protect the safety and controllability of the supply chain. The purpose is different, and the means and methods are different. The engine and gearbox are all developed jointly, and only the chassis suspension is independently designed.

Qu Li's request is that the gearbox and engine must be mass-produced in 2015, and the first-generation product of the CMA architecture will be launched, which is the planned Lantu (Eight Horse) coupe.

"I knew it would be difficult, so I increased the investment and asked them to arrange more R\u0026D teams." Qu Li held a meeting in Xingsha to understand the situation.

2015 is the year when the Geometry technology will explode in the planning. Not only the Geometry Y9 will be launched, but also the CMA architecture will be implemented, and there will also be a car capable of driving gasoline vehicles.

The implementation of the CMA architecture is not only a technological advancement, but the proportion of common components will increase to more than 80%, and the R\u0026D cost is more than 20% lower than that of traditional platforms (CS6/CS8).

Regardless of Qiancheng Automobile making money, selling a car can earn more than 10,000 yuan, but after deducting various R\u0026D investments, marketing management expenses, and dividing the final net profit by car sales, it may be hundreds or even thousands. Great Wall Motors 2015 The annual financial report shows that the bicycle profit is about 10,000 yuan.

It can be said that the success of Qiancheng's CMA architecture determines whether Qiancheng fuel vehicles can bring continuous profits to geometry electric vehicles.

"Tianming, don't act recklessly. If you really want to do this, you may lose money this year." Deng Weijiang saw that Qu Li was about to sign the R\u0026D investment application form, and hurriedly stopped him.

Qu Li is as long as the goal is achieved, no matter what the cost is, but Deng Weijiang is the company's CFO, so he has to do nothing and let Qianqian go bankrupt.

"Then what to do, I don't know which ones can be saved and which ones can't."

"Ouch! Can you stop pretending like that!"

Hey, to be honest, no one will believe it, and you will be complained about pretending to be tender...

But Qu Li really doesn't have time to audit with Deng Weijiang, he still has to attend Time Reading Club, Time Concert, and take care of his children...

Time's acquisition of domestic live concerts is not going well, so I plan to do it myself. Now I plan to hold it in Xingsha during the National Day every year. Glory will pay for sponsorship and contact Xingsha. Of course, Qu Li is not in charge of specific affairs. But he's going to come up with ideas.

Not everyone likes rock and roll, so it might not be impossible to hold a concert that combines tradition and modernity? For example, Tan Weiwei's "Huayin Old Tune" also has various ancient opera tunes. If those messy words are written better, it may not be an excellent musical form.

This is the case with music and brand, how can consumers remember you if you don’t have something of your own?
