Chapter 258 The Skill Tree Is Wrong? Then You Need some Help! (5K Votes Requested, Please Follow Up)

Mud bang, wind field.

As the largest car company in Blue Star, Fengtian is very sensitive to sales data.

During the morning meeting, President Akio looked at the data in his hand and frowned.

"Why did our sales in China last week decrease by 700 units year-on-year?"

Matsumoto, the director of the sales department, quickly replied: "President, we think it is because our marketing activities have not been carried out yet. Customers like to buy cars during events. We only need to hold a promotional event to bring back sales." .”

Zhang Nan thought for a while and warned: "Then implement it as soon as possible. Chinese people are about to celebrate the New Year. Take advantage of this time to increase sales as soon as possible!"

"The marketing plan will be released tomorrow, and I believe the sales data will look better tomorrow!"

After hearing Matsumoto's words, Akira nodded with satisfaction.

The next day, Matsumoto was sitting in the office of the sales department and said: "Today we must fully ensure the work of our colleagues in China. Whatever they need, we will immediately keep up with the service. Do you understand?"

"Got it!" The people in the sales department became more and more excited. In the past few years, they have made a lot of money, and this year is no exception.

They keep water glasses and bread in their hands so as not to have time to eat when they are busy.

Three hours passed.

The number of people who made the call can be counted on one hand.

"What's going on? Don't they have any questions to ask us this year?"

"It's impossible. We have just released a new car. According to past experience, now should be the peak period for their inquiries!"

"Are they too busy to even make a phone call?"

Several salesmen wondered.

Matsumoto listened and walked around the office with his hands behind his back. After walking twice, he said: "Immediately contact the people in China and ask them about their situation."

"yes!"

A salesperson immediately dialed the number, and the person on the other side quickly answered.

"Today is the first day of the event. How was your event there?"

"The situation is not good. There are a lot fewer people coming to the store to look at cars."

"Why? How could there be so few people on the first day of the event?" Matsumoto said immediately after hearing what the other party said.

When the other party heard that it was him, he said hesitantly: "We are also analyzing the reasons. The first possibility is that the early publicity model was too traditional, and the other possibility is related to the latest news released by Luo Yao, a scientist from China. .”

After hearing Luo Yao's name, Matsumoto could no longer pretend to be calm and asked quickly: "What did he announce?"

"There is news about car battery testing. It is said that a new battery has been developed and is being tested by car companies. People in China are discussing that the demand for cars is not so urgent at the moment and they want to wait for them to release new models. After buying an electric car, you can then decide which car to buy.”

"What? Why did he suddenly go get a battery? Did you say what kind of battery it was?" Matsumoto asked anxiously.

"There is no news yet, we will send someone to find out."

"Hurry up and find out. Don't wait until someone takes out the battery completely before we know the information!"

After Matsumoto hung up the phone, he knew that it was impossible not to report this matter to Akira. Luo Yao hadn't taken out the battery yet, which had affected the demand of Chinese people to buy cars. If it was really built, it would be okay!

Matsumoto realized the seriousness of the situation and hurriedly dialed Akio's phone number.

"President, there is something that you need to know immediately, which is related to our automobile project." Matsumoto said in a serious tone.

Akio heard Matsumoto's words on the other end of the phone and immediately became alert, "What's going on? Tell me in detail."

Matsumoto briefly described the situation to Akio, "Recently, Chinese scientist Luo Yao has developed a new car battery and is currently looking for electric vehicles for experiments. Many Chinese people have postponed their plans to buy cars because of this. Our Activities are currently being significantly affected!”

"What did you say? Luo Yao went to make batteries?" Zhang Nan's voice suddenly became louder.

Matsumoto quickly explained: "Yes, they have developed a new type of car battery and are already conducting experiments. If they complete the research and development first, we think the sales of gasoline vehicles will be affected."

Luo Yao is a man who is always unexpected.

Zhang Nan has always been glad that Luo Yao did not engage in electric vehicles, otherwise the entire oil vehicle market would have changed.

Well now, the other party actually started it!

Zhang Nan was silent for a moment, and then said seriously: "This is a severe test. We can't let him affect us. You send someone to check their situation immediately. If you have any new information, you must report it in time!"

"clear!"

After Akio ended his call with Matsumoto, he sat on the office chair for a long time and called to invite the presidents of Honta, Shisuzu, Yamaha, and Mazda.

Akio is waiting in the office for the arrival of presidents of other automobile companies.

This meeting is crucial for their company and requires support and cooperation from other companies.

Soon, the presidents of Benda, Isuzu, Yamaha, Mazda and other companies arrived at Akio's office one after another.

"Thank you all for taking the time to come. This meeting is very important and involves the future development of our automobile industry." Zhang Nan's voice was solemn and serious.

The other presidents didn't understand why he was so nervous, so they asked: "President Akio, have you heard any news?"

"You probably don't know yet. At present, Luo Yao of China has developed a new car battery. They are currently convening car companies to experiment with this battery. No data has been released yet, but it has now affected customers. make a decision!"

The other presidents showed expressions of surprise and worry when they heard this.

"Luo Yao has entered the battery industry?!"

They understand what this means. The research and development of new vehicle batteries may subvert the entire automotive industry and is a huge challenge for every automotive company.

"Yes, everyone should know the consequences of this. Now we should unite to curb the development of the electric vehicle industry!"

"Our major car companies contribute 47% of Nihong's GDP. If we are affected, Nihong will also be in turmoil!"

"So we must hold steady!"

"I believe that the goal of all of us here is hydrogen energy. If electric vehicles continue to develop now, it will not only affect the market share of our gasoline vehicles, but also affect the layout of the hydrogen energy industry!"

"The outside world is saying that we have gone astray, but they know nothing! What we want is a complete hydrogen energy society!"

"The future belongs to hydrogen energy! We must defend our defense now!"

"President Zhang, what do you think we should do now? If the news you got is true, then China's battery industry is likely to soar again. In this way, there will be no room for us to operate. More?" Mazda's president asked.

Akio continued with a stern face: "At present, we need to act immediately."

“First, we must strengthen cooperation and exchanges with the field of hydrogen energy technology to understand the latest progress and trends. Secondly, we must increase investment in research and development of new energy technology and strive to gain a leading position in this field. Finally, we must strengthen Cooperation with the supply chain ensures that we have timely access to the most advanced technology and materials."

"Of course, we still have the most important thing to do."

Everyone looked at him.

"We are going to the N7 Summit to convey our ideas. We want the world's car companies to unite!"

"Exactly!" Bentian's president said excitedly, "The N7 summit will have representatives from Maple Leaf Country, Gallic Chicken, Yidai, John, Ugly Country, etc. This is a good time for us to convey the concept of curbing electric vehicles. !”

"That's right!" Isuzu's president continued, "We want the world to know that we are not just competitors, but also partners! We must jointly respond to the challenges of the electric vehicle industry and jointly promote the development of the automotive industry. "

Other presidents expressed their support, and they decided to unite and attend the N7 Summit together. At this critical moment, they realized that only by working together can they face the impact of Luo Yao.

The day of the N7 summit.

Zhang Nan saw the opportunity and took the stage to speak.

"I must talk about the problem of electric vehicles here. Toyota has manufactured electric vehicles as early as the 1990s, but the results, as we have all seen, are not environmentally friendly and economical. A large number of electric vehicles have to be charged. , and it will also put huge pressure on the power grid!”

"We cannot do things that sacrifice the quality of life of ordinary people just because of temporary commercial profits!"

"The production process of electric vehicles involves a large amount of resource and energy consumption, especially the manufacturing of batteries. Battery manufacturing requires a large amount of materials, such as lithium, nickel, cobalt, etc. The collection and processing of these materials will have further impact on the environment. !”

"The goal of achieving carbon neutrality and environmental protection through the promotion of electric vehicles cannot be achieved at all. Once the sales of gasoline vehicles decline, it will bring a huge blow to the mud economy."

"I hope that everyone here can join us, car companies, to jointly curb the development of electric vehicles!"

Nihong's car company has always been the overlord of Blue Star. Usually everyone will follow if there is any movement, but it was different today. Zhang Nan talked a lot, but no one paid attention to him.

Seeing that the people present did not react much, Zhang Nan continued: "Think about it, everyone, just installing charging piles will cost 350 billion U.S. dollars. Who will pay for such a huge expense?"

"Hua has installed so many charging piles, but hasn't it been fully developed?"

"I believe that car companies that vigorously develop electric vehicles are the sinners that endanger Blue Star's environment!"

It was obvious who Zhang Nan was referring to, but Chou Guo and other representatives at the meeting were not very comfortable.

Because they are also developing electric vehicles, didn't Zhang Nan scold them?

Zhang Nan is also smart. When he saw the hesitant look on the person below, he quickly added: "Of course, the electric car I'm talking about is the kind of crude electric car."

"If someone can build a good electric car, of course they can."

“But we must also believe that in the future, hydrogen energy vehicles will be the mainstream!”

The people sitting below certainly understood what Akira meant when they heard this, but do you want them to develop hydrogen energy now?

That's what people with brain problems would do!

…

"At present, Zhang Nan emphasized at the N7 Summit to curb the development of electric vehicles. Do you think he is targeting us?" Shan Xing said to Zheng Yang, Luo Yao and Wan Peng.

"Zhang Nan?" Zheng Yang snorted coldly.

"This person has always wanted to develop hydrogen energy and is a supporter of the hydrogen energy school. In his words, the energy density of hydrogen is as high as the same weight. The energy that hydrogen can provide is much higher than that of gasoline and coal. After burning, It is very environmentally friendly, but he never considers transportation, storage and manufacturing issues.”

"To use hydrogen energy, we must solve these two big problems. Hydrogen is a gas, flammable and explosive. How to transport and store it?"

"The explosion of a hydrogen balloon is scary, let alone a hydrogen energy car! If a hydrogen energy car is touched, the people inside the car will be thrown up directly."

"Let's talk about manufacturing issues. The cost of electrolyzing water to produce hydrogen is high, and using fossil fuels to produce hydrogen is polluting. Nuclear power can also produce hydrogen, but the cost is higher, so guess what they did?"

"No matter how smart people are, they simply don't produce hydrogen and only produce related supporting facilities, such as high-efficiency liquefied hydrogen, hydrogen refueling stations, and hydrogen energy power generation. They have them all. In terms of technical reserves in the field of supporting facilities, they are actually No. 1 in the world. one."

"They just thought, if they can't solve the problem of hydrogen production, then they should solve the related facilities! In this way, if people from other countries develop how to make hydrogen, they can directly purchase their equipment."

"They don't have to take the upfront risk at all."

"They have already set out the dishes and chopsticks, just waiting to create a hydrogen breakthrough so that they can eat."

Shan Xing couldn't help but say after hearing this: "It's really a try, the bicycle turns into a motorcycle. After all, they are a small country. They can't have multiple lines of layout. Once they see the right signs, they can only do it all."

"Yes, that's why they will definitely work on hydrogen energy."

"To put it bluntly, it's because their skill tree is different from ours. They are worried that the market will abandon them, so they work hard to prove that their choice is correct."

"Wan Peng, during this period, the car companies participating in the experiment must instruct them to keep confidentiality. The mobile phones of relevant personnel should be confiscated first, so as not to allow others to take advantage of it."

"No problem, we will repeat the confidentiality regulations to them every day..."

"Actually, I hope someone leaks the secret." Luo Yao said aloud.

Several people turned to look at him, but for a moment they didn't realize what Luo Yao meant.

Luo Yao's words surprised the people present. They didn't understand why Luo Yao would want someone to leak the secret.

At present, hydrogen negative ion conductor car batteries are still in the testing stage, shouldn’t they be kept secret?

"Gong Luo, this is no joke. Once the secret is leaked, you have no idea how disgusting things a person like Zhang Nan can do."

Luo Yao didn't take Shan Xing's words seriously.

He said slowly: "They are still very forward-looking, but sometimes they are too short-sighted. Hydrogen energy and electric energy can obviously coexist, but they dare not and do not have the financial strength to realize these two paths at the same time."

"So I wanted to do an innings."

"Since their skill tree is crooked, I have to help them!"

Making a game?

This is a rhythm that is meant to deceive people!

Several people were shocked.

Wan Peng frowned and asked: "What does Luo Gong mean by 'making a game'? Do you want to use unfair means to retaliate against them?"

"Gong Luo, this is not okay. You don't have to waste your time on these bugs."

"All your energy should be focused on scientific research tasks. If things are exposed, it will be bad for your reputation."

Luo Yao calmly replied: "Mr. Wan, you misunderstood. What I mean by 'playing a game' does not mean taking unfair means to retaliate against them. I just want to use some strategies and measures to guide them to realize that hydrogen energy is indeed The right path to allow them to increase their investment in hydrogen energy."

Anyway, Ni Bang has tricked them more than once or twice, so it’s not too much for him to trick them once!

After hearing Luo Yao's explanation, Wan Peng relaxed his brows slightly. After looking at each other, he said to Shan Xing, "Gong Luo, your idea is good, but we still have to be cautious. After all, it involves matters in the industry." Competition is not easy to operate."

"Once the operation is wrong, it may cause other unexpected consequences."

"Actually, as long as you calculate all the possibilities, wouldn't you avoid it in advance?" Luo Yao looked at Wan Peng speechlessly.

"Through the analysis of mathematics and computer theory, we can simulate the results of various situations and evaluate the risks and benefits that various decisions may bring. This can help us formulate more scientific and reasonable strategies and reduce the probability of operational errors."

“For example, it can be easily realized through theories such as probability theory and statistics, decision tree analysis, optimization theory, simulation technology and risk management theory.”

"Are you still worried about making mistakes?"

For the first time, Wan Peng experienced knowledge being forcefully poured into his brain. He didn't know where to start even if he wanted to speak.

"Of course, I have completely calculated all the results before doing anything, so you don't have to worry about mistakes at all. You need to worry more about whether the other party will fall into too deep!"

Zheng Yang felt bad when he heard this.

He has seen how powerful Luo Yao is. Even though this kid looks harmless, if he really wants to scheme against someone, he can definitely pull off someone's pants!

He knew that if Luo Yao decided to take action, he would definitely be able to easily pull out his opponent's trump card.

"If hydrogen negative ion conductor batteries enter the market smoothly enough, the sales of fuel vehicles will definitely be affected, and the business model of Nihong will be subverted. I believe that in order to support the existing industry, they will definitely attack Luo Gong, so I I agree with Luo Gong to take action first."

"Only by letting them find other things to do will their attention not be focused on electric vehicles."

"Don't they like stud? Then they can't blame us if they lose the bet!"

After hearing that Shan Xing recognized him, Luo Yao said in a good mood: "That's the truth, I won't deliberately lie to him. After all, as a big country, we don't actually want much, only two, that is hydrogen energy and We all want electricity."

"We're just giving them a little illusion."
