If you pay attention to the timetable, you will notice that the timetable set in the other world is around 2025-2030.
Because this timetable is generally set after 2010, it gives more than 15 years to the automobile companies.
This is very reasonable. After all, if they can't produce a qualified electric car in 15 years, then these automobile companies can just close down.
Therefore, when the 2005 policy is finally set 15 years later in 2020, it is also very reasonable.
But the automobile companies can't stand it. They don't have any electric car technology. Isn't this blindly giving orders?
But even if it's blindly giving orders, they can't do anything. Because the reason for this policy is the public opinion, and these automobile companies don't have the guts to go against the public opinion.
If anyone dares to reject this timetable, then they will be scolded by everyone, and their peers will add insult to injury. Therefore, although the automobile companies are unhappy, they can't reject this timetable.
Moreover, there are still 15 years. In fact, it is enough to start developing electric cars from scratch. After all, the technology of electric cars is far inferior to gasoline cars, and many of the technologies of gasoline cars can be used on electric cars. If they can't produce electric cars in 15 years, then they should just kill themselves.
Moreover, there are still 15 years. So it doesn't matter if they continue to sell gasoline cars for another 10 years.
Therefore, the attitude of most automobile companies towards this policy is to accept or support it on the surface. In reality, they don't care about it and don't do anything. At most, they will do some electric car technology and wait for a few more years.
This is the view of most automobile companies. But there are some smart companies that think differently.
If they didn't reject electric scooters from the bottom of their hearts, and instead took the initiative to embrace electric scooters, taking advantage of the fact that everyone in the world was angry about the oil spill and the price of oil, and were disgusted by fuel vehicles, then they could take the opportunity to introduce electric scooters. Wouldn't that be equivalent to monopolizing the entire empty market?
Not to mention other things, just the customer service of their company received a lot of calls from customers asking if their company has electric cars. If there is, they will immediately buy one.
And the number of these customers is very large. There are at least a few hundred thousand of them.
Thinking of this, these companies can't help but be excited. They feel that they have discovered the secret to wealth.
But here came the problem. These companies simply didn't have a mature electric scooter solution. Even if they did, it would be impossible to form a mature production line in a short period of time. Without a production line, there wouldn't be a large number of finished products.
And by the time everything was settled, it would be at least two years later. Maybe by then, the people would have forgotten about the electric scooters and the oil pollution. It would be too late to sell the scooters.
Therefore, these people naturally understood that there was only one way to solve the problem, and that was to not produce their own cars. Instead, they directly imported finished cars for sale.
At this rate, it would take at most two months for the first batch of electric scooters to hit the market, just in time for the hot market.
Then where were the countries in the world that could supply a large number of electric scooters?
These companies turned their attention to Hua Xia and the Daqian Group.
In August 2005, the Daqian Group received an invitation from Mercedes-Benz. They hoped that the Daqian Group would send a representative to Europe to negotiate the electric scooter cooperation.
In this invitation letter, Mercedes-Benz didn't invite Boss Jia. After all, he was now the second richest man in the world. Mercedes-Benz didn't even have the 100 richest people in the world. They were actually not on the same level as Boss Jia, so they were embarrassed to take the initiative to ask.
What's more, they also knew that Jia Yapeng hadn't left Asia for three years. They didn't feel that they had the face to invite Jia Yapeng.
So instead of being rejected and humiliated, it was better to invite someone else. For example, the current CEO of Daqian Energy, Wang Chuanfu. He was the head of Daqian Automobile. His words had enough weight and could make the final decision.
Wang Chuanfu quickly gave a reply, saying that he accepted Mercedes-Benz's invitation and would definitely rush to Stuttgart in Germany as soon as possible to negotiate with Mercedes-Benz.
However, even Wang Chuanfu didn't expect that when he arrived at the airport, he would be taken to another boarding passage. Then, the entire team boarded Boss Jia's private plane, Wandering Earth, and flew to Germany with Boss Jia.
"Chairman, why are you here!" Until the plane took off, Wang Chuanfu found it hard to believe that Boss Jia, who hadn't left Asia for three years, actually flew to Europe for the first time.
"I've been here for three years. It's time to go out for a walk!" Boss Jia smiled, "Moreover, I'm going to Germany this time. I've been at odds with the United States for a long time. Their strength is the weakest in Germany!"
"What's more, I'm still a Superhero of the United States. They won't dare to openly attack a Superhero like me. I have full confidence in my safety!"
"But Chairman, this is still quite dangerous!" Although Wang Chuanfu didn't quite understand what risk Boss Jia was afraid of, since he was afraid to the extent that he hadn't left Asia for three years, Germany might not be safe.
"Chuanfu, do you remember what happened five years ago?" Boss Jia suddenly asked.
"I remember!" Wang Chuanfu suddenly became excited when he mentioned five years ago, "Of course I remember. Just like now, five years ago, we all arrived in Germany by plane to negotiate with the European automobile industry!"
"That's right!" Boss Jia smiled and nodded, "At that time, you were in the light and I was in the dark. Everyone thought that only you, Wang Chuanfu, came, but they didn't know that I, Jia Yapeng, also came!"
"Is it the same this year? I'm in the light and you're in the dark? " Wang Chuanfu quickly asked. If it was still like this, then Boss Jia's safety factor would be greatly improved!
"Five years ago, what did we come here for? Do you still remember?" Boss Jia asked rhetorically.
"Of course, we wanted to find a European automobile company to buy, absorb their technology, and then build our own electric scooter!" Wang Chuanfu said excitedly.
"What about today, five years later?" Boss Jia asked again.
"We're selling our electric scooters … selling … selling to the Europeans!" Wang Chuanfu's tone became uncontrollable as he spoke.
If it weren't for Boss Jia's reminder, he would have forgotten that the whole world had changed in five years. He had actually gone from being a newcomer in the automobile industry five years ago to being the king of electric scooters selling cars to Europe!
"That's right, our goal has completely changed. We've changed our direction!" Boss Jia sighed and said, "Then this time, we'll naturally change our direction. I'll be in the light and you'll be in the dark. I'll personally lead the team and meet Benz … No, meet the whole of Europe!"
