After Ming Ming determined the research and development direction of the new product, he immediately called Sith and asked him to engage with Tesla on the acquisition.

However, the results he got made him very puzzled.

"Is he waiting to fail?"

Wenming was not angry, because Tesla belonged to someone else, and if others didn't want to sell, he couldn't force it. But as far as he knows, the current Tesla is very difficult, and even faces the risk of failure.

Sith replied, "Tesla's boss Elon Muskow is only willing to accept a 10% transfer of shares, and the price is $ 50 million. In addition, he is unwilling to accept any conditions."

Wen Ming suddenly laughed. This unwillingness to transfer absolute control was very similar to what he is now. But the biggest difference between him and Elon Muskow is that his Apple's quarterly net profit reached 3 billion U.S. dollars, while Elon Muskow's Tesla has faced a broken capital chain and strong user dissatisfaction. To the point.

"You continue to talk to him. If he really does not want to be acquired, you tell him that we will invest in our own new energy vehicle brand."

If the acquisition fails, it is naturally a threat. This period of Wenming is already self-learning.

Sith asked curiously: "Are you really going to make a car? As far as I know, Tesla is just the technology of the gearbox, and it has been stuck for many years. We have no technical reserves at all."

Of course, pure electric vehicles are more than just a battery, as well as the two main devices of electricity. Accessories like gearboxes are also a top priority.

Wen Ming said, "I don't need to worry about technology, I know."

Without too many explanations, Sith didn't ask much, and when he hung up the phone, he was ready to threaten Tesla as Wenming said.

Wenming opened the iPad and searched for news related to Tesla. Like the results of his search last night, Tesla is facing a situation that has almost collapsed at any time.

The name of the Tesla car comes from a great scientist, Nikola Tesla, who invented the modern AC power system, a true genius.

As the company that specializes in new energy vehicles, that is, electric vehicles, is named after Tesla, we can see how ambitious it is.

In fact, the person who created Tesla was not the "Real Iron Man" Elon Muskku familiar to many people, but a man named Martin Eberhard. This talent is Tesla's true technology leader, and Elon Muscu is his investor, and with a $ 6.3 million investment, he became the chairman of Tesla and owns all of Tesla's The final decision of affairs.

It is regrettable that in 2007, Elon Muscu dismissed Martin-Eberhard's ceo post. Since then, the founder of Tesla, Martin-Eberhard, has only owned part The idlers of Tesla shares do not have any actual control over Tesla.

This history has nothing to do with Wenming. Wenming is concerned about the first batch of pure electric vehicles launched by Tesla in October this year-teroadster. This car because the transmission technology cannot be solved, so the cost has risen to $ 120,000. One.

In the original plan, the cost of this car was only $ 70,000, so Tesla pre-sold the world before the start of manufacturing, and the pre-sale price was $ 100,000.

But the cost has risen to 120,000 US dollars, so Elon Muscu decided to pay 10,000 US dollars, allowing subscribers to spend 10,000 US dollars more, and sell them at 110,000 US dollars.

The results are conceivable. At a customer meeting in Los Angeles, Elon Muscu fainted and besieged by angry customers ...

(Ps: It's true, it's just one year after the time in the article.)

Wen Ming remembered that he had seen the news at that time, and now he has also searched for the news at that time. The cover photo of the news is a picture of Elon Muscu fainted under siege.

"Why do I think he is dizzy?"

Wenming has no shortage of speculation. In another world, he had a good opinion of this person and felt that many of his ideas were very powerful. For example, he invested in aerospace technology, claiming to allow humans to migrate to Mars.

Regardless of whether it is true or false and whether it can be achieved, the idea itself is very attractive.

But now, Elon Muscu has rejected his acquisition request, that is, if this acquisition cannot be completed, the two parties will become a direct competition pair.

So, what else do you like?

"Would you like a lawyer to help those customers who have booked a Tesla car and have a lawsuit with Tesla?"

An unethical thought appeared in Wen Ming's heart, but in fact this thought was very 'moral'.

Tesla promised to sell the new car for $ 100,000 a unit, but it raised the price of $ 10,000 because of its own costs. This behavior itself is unethical. It seems that Tesla's new car costs $ 110,000 and still loses $ 10,000. Moreover, taking into account the cost of sales channels, etc., the loss will be even more.

The point is, Tesla promised before.

This behavior is absolutely immoral for those who have booked a new Tesla car, and it can even be said to be illegal. But because Tesla was signing an agreement with the user at that time, a professional lawyer finalized the relevant terms, so the user could not find any trouble for them.

For this, Wenming was powerless.

However, his purpose of seeking a lawyer to help those users is not to help those clients seek benefits, but to disgusting Tesla and make Tesla, facing a broken capital chain, worse.

At that time, maybe the acquisition will change.

"I am more and more like a capitalist who uses all segments for the benefit."

Wen Ming laughed at himself and suppressed the idea, not because he wasn't ready to do it, but it wasn't time to do it yet.

Eggs cannot be placed in the same basket. The truth is clear, so when encountering obstacles in the acquisition of Tesla, he needs to consider acquiring other electric car companies ~ www.novelmtl.com ~ Technically He can achieve from scratch, but if he wants to turn technology into a product and then make a profit from the market, he needs hardware support. In addition to Tesla's acquisition of Tesla's technical foundation, it also acquired Tesla's own factory.

If Wenming starts to build a factory now, when the new energy vehicles belonging to him can be produced, it is estimated that the second generation of iphone and ipad will be out. What he needs is to earn as much money and provide as many jobs as possible before he breeds a super spider.

While Wenming was looking for a new acquisition target, a fierce quarrel was taking place at Tesla's headquarters in Silicon Valley.

"Why not accept Apple's offer?"

Martin Eberhard, the founder of Tesla, has been kicked out, looking angrily at Elon Muscu sitting behind his desk. As Tesla's largest shareholder other than Elon Muscu, he naturally received Apple's acquisition request.

Because Tesla has nothing to do with him, it is definitely a blessing for him to be acquired.

Elon Musku's expression was also a little angry, because Martin Eberhard's current attitude made him very unhappy.

"Don't forget, I have the highest decision-making power of the company from the beginning. You are willing to be acquired. You have no qualifications to decide."

Face has been torn, there is no slight concealment or scruples between the two who created Tesla.

Martin-Eberhard sneered suddenly, saying, "If I sell my shares to Apple, what do you think will happen to you?"
