Chapter 1223 (1/2)

Tesla was founded in July 2003.

Strictly speaking, it's not time for Tesla to set up.

However, before Tesla was founded, AC propulsion, the source of Tesla's technology, had developed for a long time.

AC propulsion company first produced an electric vehicle named t-zero. Later, Martin Eberhard, founder of Tesla, invested a sum of money in AC propulsion and hoped that they could build a new t-zero for themselves with notebook batteries. After the new battery car was produced, the endurance mileage reached an amazing 480km. Martin Eberhard I hope AC propulsion can improve the car and mass produce it, but AC propulsion doesn't think it has any potential, so they didn't reach a consensus, and then Martin Eberhard decided to do it himself, so Tesla was founded.

However, since before Tesla was officially established, and from Elon Musk's point of view, the t-zero with lithium battery has come out, Li Mu speculates that the current time node may be the stage when Martin Eberhard is looking for investment with the project.

Li Mu has read the biography of Elon Musk. I remember that he only invested in Tesla in 2004. In fact, he already knew about the project in 2003. But before 2004, he had no interest in the project and was in the wait-and-see stage.

At this moment, Elon Musk has only heard about the project, but has not yet taken the time and energy to get to know it in person.

To understand the logic, Li Mu was excited.

In his last life, he yearned for Tesla very much. After all, the first people who sought after Tesla were almost all people in the Internet circle. Then its products continued to improve their influence, let more people know and accept it, and then they also sought after it.

In Li Mu's eyes, Tesla is the perfect combination of Internet spirit in traditional products.

As an Internet person, Li Mu once had unique doubts about numerous traditional products. In the case of automobiles, Li Mu has driven many kinds of cars in his last life. There is always a question in his mind. A 9.7-inch iPad with excellent display effect and visual effect and smooth operation costs only 3000 yuan. Why is it as low as tens of thousands yuan and as high as 3000 yuan For millions of cars, no car can make its own central control screen the size and visual effect of the iPad?

Why in the era of people holding retina screen mobile phones, the visual effect and system experience of the car central control screen are as rough as the copycat MP4 in 2005? Why can't you just use a screen like the iPad? Is it a cost constraint, or an industrial constraint, or do they not think cars need that kind of central control screen at all?

Later, Tesla was born. When Li Mu saw Tesla's huge and shocking central control screen, he knew that it wasn't the car manufacturer who couldn't do it, but no one wanted to do it, or no one was willing to do it. The moment Tesla was born, it meant that people in the it industry were finally entering the car market.

In addition, in the eyes of Li Mu, the automobile industry has some very serious it technology lags behind. When the Internet people are desperately developing the Internet of things, the arrogant automobile industry has been dragging forward in its own dimension.

For example, after the era of the Internet of things, even a hot water bottle at home can use a mobile phone to start and close remotely. Why do most vehicles not even support mobile phone control?

The first few minutes of entering the car in winter and summer are almost tormented. In winter, the car is as cold as an ice cellar. Only when the water temperature rises can it be warm. In summer, the car burns everywhere after exposure to the sun, and the air conditioner can't cool for half a day. If the Internet of things technology can be brought into the car, and the car is hot or cooled for the first ten minutes before going out, can people suffer many crimes?

Some people often forget to take the car key, or lock the car key in the car, and finally can only break the window into the car. If the car solves the problem of the Internet of things, will not the door open after clicking on the mobile phone? Moby has added such functions to millions of bicycles, but it's such a simple thing. Why don't most car companies even think about it?

Some car companies will use security as an excuse to say that joining the Internet of things will bring hidden dangers to the safety of cars. Li Mu thinks this is an excuse to avoid progress. Nowadays, mobile banking can operate hundreds of thousands, millions or even tens of millions of funds. People are not worried about the hidden dangers that mobile banking brings to their accounts. What's the burden of a ton of cars Heart?

After the development of the Internet of things, even the black boss of the inverted mortgage car knows to install a GPS in the car to monitor the vehicle location and information at any time. Most of the car manufacturers have never thought of installing one in their car.

All in all, before Tesla appeared, the automobile industry had been developing freely with its own potential rules. It was not until Tesla appeared that it really gave them a slap in the face and made them realize the importance of technological innovation.

With such a complex mood from a long accumulation, Li Mu has some respect for Tesla, so he is also very interested in the project after his rebirth. However, when he asked, he actually asked about the current situation of the project from the mouth of Elon Musk, which makes Li Mu's brain instinctively reflect a motivation:Li Mu, who couldn't afford a Tesla in his last life, wanted to buy the whole Tesla in his life!

No!

It's not just a Tesla. He's going to buy Tesla and install a rocket booster for it, so that it can plunge into the traditional automobile industry and crash into it!
