Feng Yu's words stopped this argument. Although Manager Xu had lost, Feng Yu did not blame him. It's normal for him to have his own opinions and arguments. Manager Xu had done a good job in developing alternative energy vehicles and energy efficient vehicles.
The so-called new energy vehicles mainly referred to electric vehicles, or even gas-electric hybrid vehicles. As for solar vehicles and hydrogen vehicles, although these technologies are good, they are not widely used.
The whole world is encouraging electric vehicles as it is the most environmentally friendly. But the sales of electric vehicles are still low because of the high battery requirements.
Batteries take a long time to charge, and their lifespan is short. They are big and heavy, and they are expensive. Some people even complain that electric vehicles do not have enough power. Although it is easy to fix, not many people know how to fix it.
If they run out of battery on the road, there is no place to charge.
On the other hand, gasoline-electric hybrid cars were much more acceptable. They can use electricity and fuel. Although they are not powerful, it is enough for cities. Most cities can only drive at 40 to 50 km/h.
Of course, there are also gasoline-powered vehicles. Gasoline-Powered vehicles are widely used in Brazil as they can save energy and are cheap.
There were also people who directly burned natural gas. This kind of technology was very common as early as the 70s and 80s of the last century. At that time, many public buses had a big bag on them. Many people called it a cockscomb, which was filled with natural gas.
But there are many problems with this promotion. Where can they add gasoline-powered vehicles? Where can they add natural gas?
As long as there was electricity, it would be able to be used. It would be easy to charge it, as long as there was electricity.
Feng Yu had asked Bing City Machinery Manufacturing Group's laboratory to develop this type of vehicle. This is the trend of the world. Electric vehicles are similar to electric motorcycles and bicycles, and the starting line is about the same as overseas.
As for hybrid vehicles, Japan and Europe are the best. Japan's technologies are the best, and they have started to promote it in Japan.
But from 2008, Hua Xia will start to subsidize energy efficient vehicles and alternative energy vehicles. This is also the method used by many governments.
Not only that, but they also wanted to build charging stations, gas stations, and ethanol gasoline stations in some cities. They also advocated for taxis to be modified to run on gas or ethanol gasoline.
The government would subsidize the cost of the modification. Not only would it reduce the exhaust emissions, but it would also save 10 to 20 yuan per 100 kilometers. A taxi could travel hundreds of kilometers in a day, which meant that he could save tens or hundreds of yuan. This temptation was still very big.
Feng Yu's next step is to let Bing City Machinery Manufacturing Group introduce hybrid electric vehicles. The Chinese market is slowly opening up, and it is to respond to the Government's call.
As for making money from this, it would not be easy. The sales volume would definitely not be high. However, there was also another benefit, which was that it could prevent foreign hybrid electric vehicles from becoming popular in the Hua Xia market.
Actually, even if it becomes popular, the sales volume will not be high. However, the government will definitely give positive coverage. This is equivalent to helping those foreign manufacturers promote their brands for free.
The brand that should be promoted must be Songjiang. The gas-oil hybrid car was a separate series, and it could be considered a rich variety of car models.
After Feng Yu finished reading the documents, he was quite satisfied with Manager Xu's work. He had carried out his instructions seriously and had done well.
Feng Yu will not comment on whether this person can be promoted or not. It will be Li Mingde and Li Dafu's considerations, and Feng Yu does not care about these matters.
Li Dafu is also one of Bing City Machinery Manufacturing Group's shareholders and will not risk his company's future.
"I am fine with introducing hybrid electric vehicles after Lunar New Year. You can go and ask Li Dafu, and he will agree. As for pure electric vehicles, are you all going to accept orders? This is also fine. The market is not big, but we must continue to improve our technologies. "
They do not even want to advertise their electric vehicles. They will only advertise at the 4S shops and accept orders. In Feng Yu's previous life, the sales of electric vehicles were not high, and everyone is not willing to accept it.
Also, even after the subsidies, electric vehicles will be expensive. It is considered a high-end car, and it is not cheap to use.
But electric vehicles will also be promoted in the future, mainly for public transportation. Range extender electric vehicles are not bad.
Even if they cannot sell cars, they can sell the technologies. Once the technologies are developed, they can sell them for profits.
Furthermore, Tai Hua Batteries is one of the best in the world when it comes to car batteries. To cooperate with Bing City Machinery Manufacturing Group to develop electric vehicles, Tai Hua Batteries had invested a lot.
In the future, not only Bing City Machinery Manufacturing Group can make money from these technologies, but Tai Hua Batteries will also get high profits. Feng Yu has shares in all these companies, and no matter which subsidiary makes money, Feng Yu will be the one making the money.
"General Manager Feng, don't worry. We have always been at the forefront of this technology. Also, Jiebao, which joined us recently, has many related technologies. Although it's not particularly advanced, it can give us a lot of inspiration. To a certain extent, it can complement our current technology. "
Jiebao had introduced electric vehicles a long time ago, but they stopped because they could not sell. Some of the technologies that were stuck in the laboratory, and many of them were still in the theoretical stage. They were also very valuable.
"Good. I will not emphasize the importance of technologies in the automobile industry. Developing and revitalizing Jiebao will be one of our priorities in the future. We had spent so much money, and we must think of ways to earn it back. "
Jiebao's influence in Europe is higher than Bing City Machinery Manufacturing Group's Oriental Deer brand and Songjiang Motors.
Feng Yu's target is to make use of Jiebao's influence and sales channels to increase other brands' sales and influence.
"We've already made a full set of plans. In a year's time, we can make Jiebao famous again in Europe and become popular in Asia."
Chairman Xu was very confident about this. The company is also very concerned about this and has given more resources to Jiebao. For example, they had given more advertising and R&D funds.
Also, Jiebao is planning to promote Jiebao for this year's Automobile Industry Pearl Awards. Jiebao is not in decline, and it should not be difficult for the company to return to its peak.
Feng Yu saw Manager Xu had no intention to leave and knew what Manager Xu was thinking. He smiled and patted Manager Xu's shoulder. "I will let Li Mingde and Li Dafu manage the company. I trust them."
Manager Xu smiled embarrassedly and was overjoyed in his heart. That means if those two agree, General Manager Feng will not object. Seems like he must be more effective during this period. He must get the position of the President!
