My Age of Investment

Five hundred and seventy, the Chosen Son

After waiting for about three minutes, the Lifan 520 driven by Han Han finally appeared and passed the finish line at high speed.

Xia Jingxing looked up at the time, it was 9:55.88!

Good results, also belong to the category of normal performance.

Yin Xitian looked happy, trotted over, and hugged Han Han who had just got out of the car.

In the stands, domestic netizens who came to watch the game stood up one after another, giving Han Han applause and cheers.

"Han Han, so handsome!"

"Han Han, I want to give you a monkey!"

...

Han Han still has a lot of fans, and several girls are shouting in the stands.

However, such shouts were quickly suppressed by loud slogans such as "China Lifan", "National Automobile", "Lifan Divine Car" and so on.

Seeing this moving scene, domestic reporters pointed their cameras at the stands one after another, preparing to record this wonderful moment.

They just turned the camera to the domestic audience in the grandstand, but found another interesting scene.

On the other side of the stands, a group of foreigners got up and started applauding, shouting words such as "China" and "Chinese car".

What does this mean?

The reporters were stunned, Lifan's performance also conquered foreign audiences?

The reporters did not dare to be negligent, and shifted their cameras to these foreigners one after another, recording this moment of "exoticism"!

Some foreigners even gave their thumbs up to the camera, but the reporters were so happy that they felt proud.

Not to mention the audience in front of the TV, the sense of national pride was instantly bursting!

Xia Jingxing felt that this old man Yin Mingshan was really a genius. He was sure that the group of foreigners who got up first were definitely part-time actors hired by "daily salary".

These people stood up and applauded, and even drove the audience, a large group of foreigners all stood up, followed behind and applauded blindly, cheering blindly.

In the eyes of foreigners who don't know the truth,

The performance of this Chinese car with a price of only 5,000 US dollars is not bad. It doesn’t hurt to give some applause and cheers, anyway, just join in the fun! Everyone applauds, and I applaud too.

Xia Jing walked down the stands, joined Eberhard, and walked towards the Lifan racing delegation headed by Yin Xitian.

"Xi Tian, ​​congratulations!"

Xia Jingxing and Yin Xitian shook hands, and sincerely sent their blessings.

In any case, Lifan still outperformed the level.

"Jing Xing, you are being polite!"

Although the words were relatively modest, the smile on Yin Mingshan's face could not be stopped no matter what.

Because according to the competition rules, Lifan was only behind Tesla by 2 minutes and 57 seconds, less than three minutes, and Lifan won the competition.

Xia Jingxing didn't care much about winning or losing, because Tesla and Lifan were basically two kinds of creatures, and he forced them to compete together.

What Tesla wants is to break the 7-minute lap time record, and by the way, expose one or two in the Chinese market, laying a foundation for entering China in the future.

Lifan, on the other hand, needs such a victory very much, so as to facilitate the next big book to market the car.

Then, Lifan and Tesla held a simple charitable donation ceremony at the competition site, witnessed by dozens of media reporters and watched by thousands of spectators.

According to the pre-competition rules, Tesla will donate $500,000 to China and the United States for the rescue of children injured in traffic accidents.

After Eberhard delivered his donation speech, he held a large checkbook model, posed with a bright smile, and took pictures with media reporters.

Behind him, there are two racing cars of Tesla and Lifan, and the winding New North Circuit.

This scene brought the game to a successful conclusion.

…………

…………

Xia Jingxing did not attend the celebration banquet jointly held by Tesla and Lifan.

He and the foreign girl invited Li Xiang to a meal at the hotel where they were staying in Fort Neil.

Li Xiang cut a small piece of steak, put it into his mouth with a fork, chewed a few mouthfuls, smiled and said to Xia Jingxing who was sitting directly opposite: "President Xia, this match is really exciting!

Finally, Tesla donated $1 million to charity.

In the name of competition, do charity and care for children who have been injured by traffic accidents. The corporate culture is full of humanistic care.

In this regard, I think many car companies need to learn from Tesla.

Especially for those foreign-funded car companies, let alone doing charity, it would be nice not to sell models with reduced configurations, and not to discriminate against Chinese consumers! "

Xia Jingxing looked at the angry Li Xiang, smiled and said, "That's right, our automobile industry is backward, we can only be slaughtered by others, because you have no choice."

Li Xiang nodded approvingly, "That's true!"

"Mr. Xia, when is Tesla going to enter the Chinese market?"

Li Xiang was very shrewd. He guessed that Tesla's donation must have a deep meaning.

The foreign girl also looked at her boyfriend beside her with great interest. She thought Tesla was just a big toy he tossed about casually, but she didn't expect that this toy would become bigger and bigger, as if it was about to develop into a large car company .

"The domestic market is not yet accessible, the price is too high is one, the policy is the second, and the supporting charging facilities are not perfect is the third."

Xia Jingxing's face was serious. He had studied the relevant issues in depth, and concluded that he had to take it slow because the time was not ripe.

Moreover, Tesla has not even settled in the US market, and it is still too early to talk about the domestic market.

Li Xiang nodded, stopped asking more questions, and talked about the cooperation.

"This is no problem. I will say hello to Eberhard. You can arrange a team to go to the United States to interview Tesla, and Tesla will reimburse all your travel expenses."

Seeing Xia Jingxing's generosity, Li Xiang was overjoyed, with a smile on his face, "Mr. Xia, thank you so much! Don't worry, Autohome will definitely make relevant reports and show the best side of Tesla to the Chinese market. consumers."

Xia Jingxing smiled and waved his hands, "It's all trivial, don't worry too much about it."

"Hey, by the way, I heard you said, before starting Autohome, did you start a business?"

Xia Jingxing's question was exactly what Li Xiang wanted.

The cooperation has indeed been reached, but the investment has not yet been drawn.

But if you want to attract investment, you have to introduce yourself first.

So Li Xiang followed Xia Jingxing's words and introduced: "I was born in 1981. I dropped out of school when I was in the third year of high school at the age of 17. I started to devote myself to running my own personal website "The Home of Graphics Cards."

Before Xia Jingxing could respond, the foreign girl exclaimed, "Wow, dropped out of high school to start a business? I thought the Chinese wouldn't be so crazy."

Li Xiang already knew that the foreign girl sitting across from her was the current CEO of Facebook, so she didn't dare to belittle her, so she smiled and explained.

"Miss Christina, there are 1.3 billion people in China, and the population base is there. It's not surprising that I am an outlier.

It's just that our Chinese culture still tends to "everything is inferior, only reading is high".

Compared with the United States, there are fewer entrepreneurs who drop out of school, and even fewer of them become famous. "

The foreign girl nodded, chewing over and over the old saying that Li Xiang said, thinking that Chinese is really interesting.

Xia Jingxing asked, "When you dropped out of school, your parents didn't object?"

Li Xiang smiled, "My parents are also intellectuals, both graduated from the Central Academy of Chinese Opera. I gave up taking the college entrance examination and chose to start a business. They also understand and support me.

I started contributing articles to IT websites to earn manuscript fees when I was in the first year of high school, and I founded my personal website when I was in the second year of high school.

When I was in the third year of high school, the monthly manuscript fee plus personal website advertising income was almost 20,000 yuan, which was equivalent to ten times my parents' salary.

At that time, it was the upsurge of Internet entrepreneurship. I didn't want to miss this good opportunity to start a business, because if the opportunity is missed, it will never come again.

My parents thought that after I graduated from college, I would still have to find a job to earn money, and I was more determined to start a business, so they simply supported me to drop out of school and start a business.

I went to school relatively early. When I dropped out of high school, I was only 16 years old, and I was only a few months away from turning 17.

Up to now, it has been the ninth year of entrepreneurship.

Of course, my grades are nothing compared to Mr. Xia and you. "

Xia Jingxing laughed loudly, "Don't compare, I can't compare to you. When I was in high school, twenty yuan was a huge sum of money to me, let alone twenty thousand yuan a month.

You are really good, you are born to eat this bowl of rice, you have brains, ideas, and courage. "

Li Xiang smiled and continued: "In 2000, when I caught up with the Internet bubble, I upgraded my personal website "Graphic Card House" to an IT vertical portal "Bubble.com" and started full-scale commercial operation..."

After listening, Xia Jingxing understood and appreciated Li Xiang a little more.

"You realize that PC equipment sales have started to decline since 2003, and you want to transform the company early while Paopao.com still has some profits?"

Li Xiang nodded, "That's right, the IT portal didn't start, and it's mainly because we have too little experience, don't understand business management, don't understand capital operations, and don't understand anything, so we can only miss opportunities.

Later, I took a fancy to three fields, real estate, tourism, and automobiles.

Because we have experience in operating IT portals, understand the content, and know how to build vertical portals.

However, SouFun and Ctrip had already done a good job at that time. After some evaluation, they felt that they could not beat them, so they simply devoted themselves to the car portal business.

There are no giants in this industry, we are confident to be the first! "

Looking at Li Xiang who was full of vigor and eloquence in front of him, Xia Jingxing nodded slightly. Judging from the development track, this man is indeed a legend, a bit like the son of heaven.
