Chapter 158 What to do with offline experience stores and supporting charging piles (Second update, please subscribe)
Du Xinxin's words not only shocked Hu Lai to the bottom of his heart, but also Factory Director Zhang on the side was stunned.
Strictly speaking, Director Zhang, Zhang Feiyang and even Hu Lai are just businessmen.
He is just a businessman who sells and sells products.
Hu Lai's first product after taking over Phoenix Factory, "Nirvana", was launched directly using Phoenix's design drawings from a few years ago.
The second product "Rainbow" also directly follows the design of the acquired Feiniao Factory.
As for Phoenix Car Sharing, it started operating directly using Snail Sharing Car.
Pursuing perfect product details?
nonexistent.
It can be said that Hu Lai himself is a pragmatist.
In his mind, the product produced by Phoenix is nothing more than a commodity, and he himself has no ultimate pursuit of the commodity itself, nor does he have the gene to pursue ultimate perfection in his subconscious.
It's not bad, just that the product quality is above the average.
Of course, not only Phoenix has this concept, but even most of the companies in Yan Kingdom have this concept.
It’s not that I don’t want to get the details right, it’s just that it’s easier said than done.
Under this concept, the competitiveness of Phoenix products is actually just the lead brought by the technology in the domestic product's light system.
And what about Du Xinxin?
He is completely different from Hu Lai and Zhang Feiyang.
He is a true perfectionist and an ultimate product manager.
There is no room for flaws in his eyes. He just wants to make the products he designs to the extreme, pursuing perfection that is almost perverted and even paranoid.
Either don’t do it or do your best!
Perhaps without the reminder of Du Xinxin’s soul cry, Hu Lai would never have known how Phoenix became a truly great and cross-era enterprise.
I will never know what kind of corporate culture and corporate soul should be given to Phoenix.
At this moment, he seemed to suddenly understand what was wrong with Phoenix.
It is the ultimate fanaticism for products.
It is not about making the product above average, but about making it the most perfect.
A real trend-setter!
Hu Lai slowly calmed down his excitement. He was still sitting in the cab of "Qingluan" and it was obviously not suitable to talk about it anymore.
He was not in the mood to learn more about "Qingluan", as if it was just like Du Xinxin said, how can it be called unique if it cannot achieve the ultimate perfection?
"Let's do this, Feiyang, Du Xinxin, let's go to the office to chat, and Wei Ming, you will come too."
"Okay, Mr. Hu."
Several people said nothing, each thinking about something.
Zhang Feiyang immediately greeted Li Kenan and asked him to arrange follow-up work. Then Hu Lai, factory director Zhang, Zhang Feiyang, Du Xinxin and Wei Ming came to Zhang Feiyang's office.
Hu Lai was obviously moved by Du Xinxin's series of words. As soon as he sat down, he couldn't wait to look at Zhang Feiyang:
"Feiyang, what do you think of what Du Xinxin said?"
As soon as Hu Lai finished speaking, Zhang Feiyang knew that Hu Lai was moved.
He couldn't help but smile bitterly:
"Boss, Du Xinxin and I have discussed it many times. I know his thoughts very well. He doesn't just ask for air conditioning outlets!"
"His requirements for the entire smart cockpit are simply abnormal and strict. He even proposed to install weight sensors on the seats to adjust the chassis suspension according to the different weights on the seats to achieve the best comfort."
"And the most important thing is that many of his advanced designs are indeed amazing, but they are difficult to realize with current technology, and the technology is also very immature."
"For example, the transparent A-pillar and the co-pilot holographic projection screen. Listen, is this something a normal person can think of? Anyway, I am very opposed to applying immature technology to products!"
Transparent A-pillar?
Co-pilot holographic projection screen?
this……
Hu Lai can understand Zhang Feiyang. As the CEO of Phoenix New Energy Automobile, Zhang Feiyang needs stable and profitable products instead of blindly pursuing the ultimate in high technology.
Hu Lai said nothing, Zhang Feiyang sighed:
"Of course, I admit that if many details are improved as Du Xinxin said, the overall detail quality of 'Qingluan' can indeed be improved."
"But from a business perspective, I don't agree with this!"
"What we urgently need now is to take advantage of Phoenix's high popularity on the Internet and quickly launch 'Qingluan' to seize the market."
Having said this, Zhang Feiyang looked at Hu Lai:
"Boss, the most important thing is the Shanghai International Auto Show in two months!"
"During this period, all my colleagues have been working hard to make progress, just to make Qingluan debut at the Shanghai International Auto Show. We have even contacted the auto show booth and advertising!"
"This is a top priority!"
"If you miss the 'Shanghai International Auto Show', the next auto show will be the 'Rongcheng International Auto Show' half a year later. Not to mention its scale and influence are much smaller than those in Shanghai. Do we have to wait half a year before launching the 'Qingluan'?
"
"We can't afford the financial delay in half a year!"
Hu Lai's heart tightened, it was true.
The Shanghai International Auto Show is the largest annual auto show in China. It is not only the most influential, but also has the most participating car companies.
If "Qingluan" is launched at the Shanghai International Auto Show, it can compete with Model 3, Ideal, and NIO on the same stage as other car companies, and it will undoubtedly gain huge traffic.
This will definitely be a huge help to the sales of "Qingluan"!
If you missed the Shanghai International Auto Show, then...
You can’t just find a day to publish it by yourself, right?
And the most important thing is that with continued investment in research and development, the latest investment of more than 2 billion in Phoenix New Energy Vehicles will be burned out again.
If the blood cannot be restored through "Qingluan", then Phoenix headquarters will need to inject capital again.
However, the Phoenix headquarters is responsible for the expenses of the research institute and the construction of the new industrial park, and its cash flow is also very tight.
Hu Lai frowned, and Zhang Feiyang continued:
"So, the urgent task now is to catch up with the Shanghai International Auto Show and debut the 'Qingluan'."
"Now 'Qingluan' relies on our unmanned autonomous driving and voice assistant to have strong enough competitiveness and can fully establish a foothold in the market."
When Du Xinxin heard this, he shook his head unmoved:
"Mr. Zhang, I admit that many technologies are immature now..."
"However, apart from those immature technologies, most of the details I proposed are achievable, and these details will greatly help improve the quality of 'Qingluan'!"
"I will not give in. If you want me to continue to participate in the artificial intelligence of 'Qingluan', then these contents must be changed without negotiation."
Zhang Feiyang: "..."
Hu Lai listened to the two people expressing their opinions and couldn't help but feel a little difficult to make a decision.
Du Xinxin does not belong to the new energy vehicle department to begin with. He belongs to the Phoenix Headquarters Research Institute, so he is not afraid of Zhang Feiyang at all.
He hopes that the smart cockpit will become more perfect from the perspective of product and customer experience.
Although Zhang Feiyang recognized Du Xinxin's improvements, in his eyes, these changes could be improved but were not necessary.
The most important thing for Phoenix right now is to catch up and participate in the "Shanghai International Auto Show".
Is it necessary to adjust a few air outlets and a few cockpit details?
What's more, the current period of time can be said to be the best public opinion environment for Phoenix. With Phoenix's leading "future operating system" and unmanned autonomous driving, "Qingluan" will be a hit once it is launched!
Some small details are innocuous.
Is it necessary to influence the "Qingluan" listing strategy for these details?
no need!
Hu Lai watched the two people arguing and thought about it for a long time.
On one side is Phoenix's attitude towards products, and on the other side is the imminent Shanghai International Auto Show.
After a while, Hu Lai exhaled and looked at Zhang Feiyang calmly:
"change!"
"Just follow Du Xinxin's changes. It was Du Xinxin who reminded me what Phoenix needs."
"Although it is very difficult now, if you compromise once, you will have countless reasons to compromise again in the future. From now on, all Phoenix products must be presented to all Phoenix customers with the highest standards we can achieve!"
