 Poison Chapter 3519 Deserves to be eliminated

The Lantern Festival, on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, finally came to a close.

This holiday was also the last lingering warmth of the Spring Festival. After this day, starting on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, the Spring Festival would be completely over. The hardworking oxen and horses had actually returned to their posts as early as the seventh day of the first lunar month, but children and students from elementary school to university did not start school until after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. As a result, society as a whole would completely end the influence of the Spring Festival and enter the new year's work and life.

Claire Wilson's company became even busier, but Charlie Wade suddenly had much more free time.

He no longer paid attention to the Po Qing Society's headquarters, nor did he ask Li Yalin to continue searching for clues to the Po Qing Society's headquarters. After all, after the major personnel changes, he had lost the possibility of conquering the entire headquarters. No matter which headquarters he visited next, he would only be greeted by the brave cavalry and the death squads fighting to the death for their families.

He was not afraid of the attacks of the ordinary warriors; he simply did not want to slaughter them in order to weaken Wu Feiyan's power.

Some people espouse the underlying logic of "one general's success is the sacrifice of thousands of men," believing that those who achieve great things should be unconcerned with trivial matters and unconcerned with the lives and deaths of others. But Charlie Wade couldn't be that cold-blooded.

Therefore, he simply abandoned any plans for the Poqing Society's base, preferring to rest and recuperate while also seeking ways to improve his own abilities.

Lin Wan'er's life-saving ring and the infamous hand seal that shimmered in the Nordic night sky held immense secrets for him. He wanted to find an opportunity to retreat and delve into both, to understand their true potential.

However, retreating wasn't easy. Sometimes, once immersed in a trance, one could lose track of time, and a week or even two weeks could pass in the blink of an eye. If he retreated at home, he'd likely be rushed to the hospital by his family. If he left home to retreat, his family wouldn't be able to contact him for such an extended period, and wouldn't they be desperate?

Helplessly, he could only put his retreat on hold for the time being.

At the end of the first month of the lunar calendar, He Yuanjiang of Changying Automobile brought good news to Charlie Wade.

On the phone, he told Charlie Wade that the 1.0 version of the prototype of Changying Automobile's first car had been secretly put into production at the Gaoheng Automobile Assembly Plant that they had acquired. He wanted to invite Charlie Wade to the Gaoheng Automobile Assembly Plant to participate in an internal tasting meeting.

Charlie Wade was very surprised and asked him, "Professor He, the first car has been put into production so quickly?"

He Yuanjiang said, "It's far more than that. This is just the first prototype we have trial-produced. We are just building the 1.0 version of the car first to actually feel whether there are any omissions or major mistakes in the design drawings and design concepts of this car, and whether there are any drawbacks in the use of space that have not been considered before. We will find and correct problems before producing the 2.0 version. Moreover, this 1.0 version of the car is non-powered. We are just building a framework first. After there are no major problems with the main design, we will layout the power unit and conduct dynamic testing."

He Yuanjiang assured, "But don't worry, Master Wade, we will increase the speed as soon as possible while ensuring quality and quantity. Now we are concentrating a lot of talents and resources on this. "It will be very efficient!"

Charlie Wade praised, "Professor He, I feel much more at ease with you at Changying Auto."

He then asked, "By the way, when is the prototype inspection you mentioned, and how long will it take? I'll definitely go there sometime!"

He Yuanjiang said, "The Gaoheng assembly plant we acquired isn't far from Aurous Hill, just a few hours' drive away. As for the inspection, it'll probably only take five or six hours. We'll identify any issues and quickly make manual adjustments to the prototype. A revised version will be ready in a few days."

Charlie Wade pondered, "A few hours' drive would probably take most of the day, and if we factor in the inspection, we might not have enough time in a day. How about this? We can arrange a helicopter and fly directly there. That would save at least five or six hours, allowing us to make the round trip on the same day."

He Yuanjiang smiled, "Helicopter flights are expensive, so we haven't made the offer. But since you mentioned it, Young Master Ye, I'll do as you say. Is tomorrow morning convenient for you? I'll arrange a helicopter in advance, departing from Changying Auto's Aurous Hill headquarters!"

"That's convenient!" Charlie Wade agreed, saying, "I'll be there on time at 8 o'clock tomorrow."

...

Since he could go back and forth that same day, Charlie Wade didn't even bother to say hello to his family.

After Claire Wilson left for the company, he took a taxi to Changying Automobile's headquarters. From there, he, He Yuanjiang, and several core executives boarded a Bell helicopter and flew to Gaoheng Automobile's final assembly plant, over 200 kilometers away.

After the helicopter arrived at the final assembly plant, the staff took everyone to a completely enclosed workshop. Here, there was an open space of at least 1,000 square meters, where an avant-garde sports sedan was quietly parked.

The exterior of the car looked very stylish, with a streamlined front, a widened body, a raised rear wing, and tires that were nearly 30 centimeters wide, all highlighting the car's positioning as a sporty vehicle.

He Yuanjiang said to Charlie Wade, "Master Wade, our current product plan is to first launch a five-seater sports sedan, and then a five-seater sports SUV. The sports sedan will be priced between 200,000 and 300,000 RMB, and the sports SUV will be priced between 220,000 and 320,000 RMB. We will maximize the price-performance ratio of these two models, so that consumers can feel our genuine sincerity."

Charlie Wade asked him, "Professor He said the price/performance ratio is excellent. I see many cars on the market claiming to have excellent value for money, and some are even selling at a loss. If we want to offer high value for money, do we have to lose money to gain publicity?"

Charlie Wade didn't care about money, but he did care about reputation. He believed that the best development direction for Changying Automobile was market recognition while also making a certain profit.

Profit was not for himself, but to prove that Changying Automobile's products were strong and profitable. If it lost money to gain publicity, it would essentially be a failed brand and a failed attempt, which would bring shame to his father.

He Yuanjiang said to him: "Master Wade, in fact, many car companies on the market are just changing the concept. They say they are losing money, but that is just a financial concept. Many car companies will convert the initial hardware investment and development costs into the cost of making the car. It's like they invested 100 million to open a high-end hotel, making 50 million a year and paying back the investment in two years. It is obviously a huge profit, but as long as the 100 million investment has not been fully paid back, they can shamelessly say that they are losing money. They tell consumers that their rooms lose money every time they sell a night, and they are completely subsidizing consumers with money, making consumers think that their rooms are very cost-effective. In fact, their rooms have extremely high profits. "

At this point, He Yuanjiang said: "Sometimes, in order to dilute profits, they will even make the company lose money on the books, and they will also give part of the company's profits to the customers. "They split off the business that made money, while increasing investment in other areas. For example, as I just mentioned, a 100 million yuan hotel earns 50 million yuan a year. Although it can recover its investment in two years, it can't withstand the fact that after one year and ten months, it invested in a second store. It also separated the catering and other profitable services of the first store and established a separate company to handle them. As a result, they still reported a loss on the books in the third year."

Charlie Wade smiled and said, "I understand. These companies are actually transferring tens of billions of startup funds to the first batch of consumers. The actual manufacturing cost of a car is only 100,000 yuan, and it sells for 300,000 yuan, with a gross profit of 200,000 yuan. However, due to the tens of billions of yuan in initial investment, each car has to bear tens of millions of yuan in costs. This makes it seem like they are selling cars at a loss."

"That's right." He Yuanjiang nodded and said, "So I suggest that we don't play this kind of trick of stealing concepts with consumers in the early stage, and don't collude with them. Since we want to become bigger and stronger, we must subvert their unspoken rules and directly cut off their financial resources."

Charlie Wade asked curiously, "Professor He, do you have a plan?"

He Yuanjiang said, "Master Ye, my plan is that Changying Automobile might as well be like Pang Donglai. We directly list all the costs of a car. First of all, the intuitive cost, how much is the raw material cost of each car, how much is the production cost, taxes, logistics warehousing, and management and sales costs, all listed clearly, and then the hidden costs, such as the design cost, mold cost, and production line cost of this car. For each model, we allocate costs based on sales of 500,000 units. If we invest 5 billion in R&D and production lines for this model, then the hidden cost per vehicle is 10,000 yuan. Once our cumulative sales of this model exceed 500,000 units, we've recouped our initial investment. So, starting with the 500,000th unit, we'll deduct this portion of the allocation from the price of the car. After listing these costs, we'll disclose our pre-tax profit to consumers to ensure our profit margin is within a reasonable range.

"I've never heard of anyone selling cars this way. Even the incredibly popular Remi Auto doesn't disclose its R&D and hardware investment costs."

"Yes!" He Yuanjiang said: "Now the automobile industry has reached its peak. Everyone is constantly introducing new products and offering discounts and price cuts, but in fact, the prices of many cars are inflated!"

"Just like those imported brands, the cost is 300,000, and they sell it to consumers for 1 million first. If the 1 million sells well, then the terminal price increase mechanism will be activated. Although the price is 1 million, you will never get the car without adding 100,000 or 200,000 yuan."

"If you gradually find that no one is willing to pay more, then sell it according to the suggested price of 1 million."

"When 1 million doesn't sell well, then sell it for 800,000, 700,000, 600,000 or even 500,000..."

"I think this practice is equivalent to writing the word "swindler" directly on your face. Consumers will definitely have a very bad impression, and it will have a great impact on the brand image."

"Since we are latecomers and want to catch up, then we must do what our predecessors dared not do, or are unwilling to do. We should simply remove the fig leaf and face consumers honestly. If they can't keep up, they deserve to be eliminated!"
