Chapter 1447 (1/2)

All of a sudden, he was scolded by Li Mu. Elon Musk was especially depressed and wronged.

In the face of Li Mu's rebuke, he said innocently: ”Mr. Li, as for the project of new energy vehicles, in fact, I don't think it's so noble and great. I just analyze it from the perspective of investment, and think it's possible to subvert the traditional automobile industry. From the perspective of investment, the more subversive the project is, the more promising it will be in the future The higher the profit margin... ”

Li Mu was stunned for a moment, then nodded softly.

Li Mu once thought that Elon Musk was a person with a strong sense of social responsibility, but after a series of exchanges just now, Li Mu found that his cognition had some errors.

In his opinion, Elon Musk is not as noble as he imagined. He is actually a businessman, a businessman who pursues profits and fame. At least, at this stage, when he is not known by the world and is not wildly respected by the world, he has not established a strong sense of social responsibility for himself.

Even in a moment, Li Mu thought that the inner world of Elon Musk in the early stage of entrepreneurship should not be much different from that of jabbs in China. All of us are adventurers who want to have a big gamble in our lives, win the king's life, lose the big game and start again. Elon Musk won the game on Tesla, and then won the game on SpaceX.

Maybe Elon Musk will gradually have a stronger sense of social responsibility on his way to success, but at least for now, Li Mu has not really seen it from him.

In his eyes, new energy vehicles are not really for environmental protection, nor for the importance of popularizing clean energy to the world. He just stumbled upon a small team named AC propulsion, which specializes in the research and development of battery driven vehicle related technologies. Then he thought that this thing had to be done in a commercial perspective, so he was ready to invest some money. It was totally one Angel investors.

Recall that Elon Musk invested only $6.2 million in Tesla at the beginning. How can we see that the investment is not equal to the scale of an automobile manufacturer? Therefore, from this scale of investment, we can see that Elon Musk's original intention of investing in Tesla is prudent. I'm afraid that this money will be enough for Tesla to build a sample car, and then it will be good To tell stories and attract the next round of investment.

Therefore, Elon Musk's original intention for Tesla, as he said just now, is a simple investment project for him. As for the multiple renderings from the media later, in Li Mu's view, most of them are deliberately done by the team behind Elon Musk.

The world is praising Tesla for leading the development of new energy vehicles and the era of environmental protection and clean energy. But until Li Mu's rebirth, Tesla was only a plaything for the rich and middle class.

Li Mu realized that as a businessman, Elon Musk had no mistake in doing this. The mistake was that he had too high expectation of his personality. The root cause was that the media that praised him crazily in the last life were always sparing no effort to render his perfect image to the world. ”Silicon Valley iron man” was him, ”human hope” was him, ”colonizing Mars” ”It's him. In the eyes of the media and some people, he is the most amazing entrepreneur on the earth. Now, to some extent, these remarks are absurd.

Li Mu didn't despise Elon Musk because of this, but suddenly felt that a man who was portrayed as a God was just a businessman through and through. He just chose a field that was easy for ordinary people to be passionate about.

But at the end of the day, it's nothing wrong. It's a very normal thing, but Li Mu's heart is a little behind because he saw through this.

Li Mu adjusted his heart's gap to Elon Musk, and said to him very seriously, ”in the future, Tesla, whether it's to make money or to popularize the concept of clean energy, we should try to make our products reach more people. We have reached a consensus on this, right?”

Elon Musk nodded.
