Jiang Tao ignored his cousin and continued watching Xu Guang and his fans making a fuss in the live stream, praising the Ruishi N7L for sure to sell well and saying that the Junxing M7 was doomed. They said that the Junxing M7 wouldn't last more than 3 months, and that Junxing Motors would even go bankrupt before the end of the year.

He couldn't help but fall into deep doubt. Today, when he visited the authorized service center of Junxing Auto, the restaurant was packed with customers, and the showroom on the first floor was constantly filled with people looking at cars. Putting everything else aside, just the environment of the two experience stores was like the difference between luxury and fast fashion. Could Junxing Auto really be so vulnerable?

At that moment, someone in the live stream suddenly started spamming the chat. Jiang Tao took a closer look and jumped up – how could this be? Junxing Intelligent R&D Center has invested hundreds of billions to develop independently controllable computing chips.

This is absolutely incredible! 1000 billion! 1000 billion! Huadi Automotive Group doesn't even spend 500 billion a year on R&D; that's already the ceiling for domestic automotive R&D investment. Junxing Intelligent R&D Center is going to do something big, investing 1000 billion annually. If I remember correctly, Nvidia's annual investment is only 110 billion US dollars.

Suddenly, a large number of Junxing Auto fans flooded into the live stream, spamming the chat with comments about the spectacle. "Abstract Live Talking About Cars" paused for a moment, then said, "What nonsense are you spouting? Anyone can brag. You think 1000 billion is just 1000 Chinese yuan? Let's see how you invest. Besides, this is fake news, right? I'll go check it out."

Just five minutes after Feng Feifei announced her chip-making venture, the entire internet exploded with the news. The launch of the Ruishi N7L suddenly lost much of its attention, as everyone went looking for news about Junxing Intelligent's R&D center.

Financial Headline: Junxing Intelligent invests 1000 billion yuan to enter the computing chip field, aiming at Nvidia.
"The first data center GPU will rival the H100, and the autonomous driving chip will challenge Orin; mass production of 7nm process technology will begin in 2026."

The following is an introduction:

Investment scale: No less than 1000 billion yuan will be invested annually, focusing on data center GPUs (600 TOPS computing power target) and autonomous driving chips (2000 TOPS level).

Funding and talent: The funding will be provided by Junxiao Capital and Dr. Feng Robotics Technology Group with a special fund of 1000 billion yuan per year, which will be used for this purpose only. Other R&D projects of Junxing Intelligent R&D Center will not use this fund.

Meanwhile, Junxing Intelligent R&D Center will poach chip experts from around the world, promising salaries that are 3-5 times higher than before.

In conclusion, Junxing has elevated its chip strategy to a battle for the dignity of China's industry by combining "holographic technology, hardcore data, and leadership charisma." When Feng Feifei clenched her fist and declared, "Our chips must bear the name of China," the entire audience rose to their feet and applauded for three minutes—perhaps one of the most inspiring moments in the history of China's semiconductor industry.

Now it was Junxing Auto's fans' turn to erupt in excitement. This is emotional value! Who else in China dares to invest 1000 billion yuan annually in chip manufacturing? Just who else? Can Huadi do it? Does it have the capability?

A large number of people flooded into the "Abstract Live Talk Cars" livestream room to criticize him. When he questioned Junxing Intelligent's R&D Center's claims, his subordinates told him to read more news and not just watch porn after the broadcast. That's Junxiao Capital! Would Junxiao Group make such boasts? They wouldn't lose face like that. Look at how much they spent on commercial real estate projects in the first half of the year—3000 billion yuan! What's 1000 billion yuan compared to that?

This was supposed to be a live stream of the R&D launch of the R&D N7L, but now it's all about the Junxing Intelligent R&D Center. Almost every live stream on the internet is flooded with comments about this, and the whole country is in an uproar.

Even at the press conference, there was a great commotion. Li Huanghe, the only one unaware of the situation, joked that many audience members wanted to know the price and were already getting restless. He also thanked everyone for their trust and support of the Ruishi N7L, and said that when it came time to place orders, everyone should be quick, otherwise the factory's current production capacity could only reach 3 units per month at its limit, and if you were late to place an order, delivery might be delayed for several months.

How confident do they think they can get hundreds of thousands of orders in an instant? Normally, the staff would discuss this topic, but right now everyone is busy discussing Junxing Intelligent R&D Center.

Seeing the media and viewers whispering among themselves, Li Huanghe assumed they were discussing the price of his Ruishi N7L. Many fans of Junxing Auto and some online trolls from other brands who had rushed into the live stream were already laughing.

"Li Huanghe didn't get the situation right. He thought his subordinates were inspired by his embarrassing report, but he didn't realize that all his popularity had been stolen today."

"He's still thinking about all the rave reviews and people rushing to place orders. Look at the price of the Ruishi N7L next. I think this car is going to flop."

It seems only the KOCs of Huadi Auto realized what was happening and immediately shifted the focus of the discussion back to the live stream. The "Abstract Live Talk about Cars" even made a bold statement: "After today, among domestic new energy luxury brands priced around 30 yuan, the Ruishi brand will be the only one to dominate."

Unfortunately, Junxing Auto's fans were collectively excited and their fighting power was off the charts. They almost made him shut down, and he could only keep kicking people, in a state of impotent rage.

Finally, Li Huanghe announced the price of the Ruishi N7L. Just as predicted by "Abstract Live Car Talk", the starting price is 28.98 yuan, which is 2 yuan higher than the starting price of the Junxing M7.

"Abstract Live Car Talk" shouted in the live broadcast room: "Big sales, big sales, like a tiger descending the mountain, unstoppable!"

Tonight's launch event has come to a close. From this moment on, the Ruishi N7L is open for pre-orders, and Li Huanghe has promised immediate delivery upon launch, guaranteeing over 10,000 units delivered in the first month, indicating that they have made ample preparations for increasing production capacity. This is also to reassure prospective car owners and prevent them from giving up due to concerns about long delivery times.

An hour later, the official R&D team of the R&D brand announced that the R&D N7L had received 5 orders in just one hour. The news spread across the internet, but was immediately overshadowed by news of Junxing Intelligent's investment of hundreds of billions in self-developed chips. However, in the live streams of several KOCs (Key Opinion Consumers) on Huadi Auto, the excitement returned.

"Awesome, it's up! Just like a tiger descending the mountain, the Junxing M7 is ruined, completely ruined."

"Don't be fooled by Junxing Auto's current monthly sales of 2.2 units. Starting next month, the monthly sales of Ruishi N7L will definitely exceed 2 units, while the Junxing M7 will definitely drop below 1 units. Three months later, the monthly sales of Ruishi N7L will be over 3 units, while the Junxing M7 will not exceed 3 units."

Of course, there were also online trolls complaining: "They placed a 5 yuan order, but only received 500 yuan worth of cars."

"Just treat the big order from the Ruishi brand as a joke, and wait 3 months before you see."

"The tiger came down the mountain, then went back, and then it was on the verge of death."

There was no point in watching any longer, so Jiang Tao turned off the live stream and went to the living room, where his cousin Xu Jia was sitting on the sofa checking today's sales figures.

Anyone in the retail industry deals with data every day, and Xu Jia is no exception. Every night, she checks the day's data to see how it compares year-on-year and month-on-month, and which stores have any issues. This has become a work habit for her.

Seeing Jiang Tao walk over, she asked him to sit down. "I'll say it one last time: you can invest in new energy vehicles, but only Junxing Motors. I can support you with the money you need. If I don't have enough, I can borrow from your sister Xiangjun."

"Borrow from Sister Xiangjun? Where would she get the money?" Jiang Tao remembered that Zhao Xiangjun's family was very poor, and she had to subsidize her family with her monthly salary.

Uh—Xu Jia accidentally let it slip. She quickly added, "What I meant was that I borrowed everything I could to support you."

"But I heard that the investment for a Junxing Auto authorized user center store is over 1500 million yuan. You can't even get that much money, let alone borrow it or rob it."

Jiang Tao looked at his cousin and thought that if he told her the amount of 1500 million, she would be terrified. But Xu Jia didn't seem to react at all. It was as if she could come up with 1500 million just because he was an authorized user center for Junxing Motors.

Xu Jia waved her hand, "Get some rest. If you've thought it through, come find me. If you're still planning to work on the Ruishi N7L, then go do whatever you need to do."

She had just wanted to tell Xiangjun about her situation, but in the end she didn't. She was mainly afraid that Jiang Tao would directly ask Xiangjun for resources. She was so young and inexperienced, so it was better for her to go out and gain some experience first, and it would be good if she stumbled a few times.

After taking a shower, Chen Xiao lay down with Xiang Jun in his arms. It was so torturous to be able to look at such a beautiful woman and touch her but not dare to move.

Sensing his change, Zhao Xiangjun turned to him and said, "Aren't you going to find He Qing and leave her alone in her empty room?"

"I...I just wanted to favor you, didn't I?"

"Forget it, you're taking so long, I'm scared."

If it were just a fleeting moment, wouldn't it be even more unpleasant? Ideally, she would play the first half, and He Qing the second half, Chen Xiao thought, but he didn't put it into practice. He knew Xiang Jun was shy and would find it difficult to overcome this hurdle, so of course he didn't want to force her, even though he knew that if he brought it up, Xiang Jun would definitely agree for his sake.

In the end, Chen Xiao was still sent to He Qing's place. No sooner had he left than Xiang Jun logged into the "Hello Mr. Chen" WeChat account and went to the "Abstract Live Car Talk" account to see his latest post: "[Thankfully, he wasn't proven wrong. The Ruishi N7L has descended like a tiger, unstoppable. It's taking the path of the Junxing M7, leaving the Junxing M7 with nowhere to go.]"

A bunch of fans left comments below, celebrating the victory of 5 orders in one hour. Of course, there were also many who criticized him. Xiangjun saw that fans who were not from Junxing Motors were criticizing him below, saying, "A 5000 yuan deposit, and a 7-day refundable order, is still called a big order? Ruishi brand is redefining big orders."

Other brands typically require a deposit of 2 to 5 yuan for large orders, which are non-refundable once placed. Ruishi brand, however, allows for refunds within 7 days, making it easier to inflate order numbers, which has drawn ridicule from many fans.

No matter how fierce the argument gets now, we can't figure out the truth. In the end, we need to extend the timeline and check the delivery in six months.

Zhao Xiangjun couldn't resist commenting after watching for a while: "This is a tiger from Jingyanggang." She then closed WeChat; if she kept looking, she'd get really angry, and she didn't want it to affect her unborn baby.

However, her comment immediately attracted a lot of attention, with someone commenting below: "Shanyun Auto's KOC has also joined the battle. In dealing with the Ruishi brand, Shanyun Auto and Junxing Auto are on the same side."

As a result, Huadi's fans have expanded their attacks from Junxing Motors to include Shanyun Motors. A large number of fans flooded Shanyun Motors' official account with comments such as, "A fierce tiger descends the mountain, Shanyun, quickly kneel down and accept your death."

There were also many posts criticizing: "What kind of crap is FlashCloud Auto? Adults are competing together, why are you at the kids' table?"

"Regardless, the Junxing M7 still manages to sell over 20,000 units a month, which is something the Ruishi brand should take seriously. What is Shanyun Auto? Four or five of their models don't even sell 20,000 units a month, yet they're trying to gain attention?"

"Damn it, damn it, Shanyun Motors! We have to show them what happens when they anger Huadi's fans."

Jin Wuxian was speechless. He was woken up by a phone call from his subordinate. He was completely dumbfounded when he heard the news. He used to cause trouble, but recently, with Shan Yun in the spotlight, he had been keeping a low profile. How could disaster strike out of the blue when he was just lying at home?

Get up quickly and go online to see what's going on. After learning that it started with "Hello, President Chen" in a speech, Jin Wuxian cursed and said, "Damn it, Chen Xiao, you son of a bitch, you've only been quiet for a few months, and now you're back to mess with my mentality."

People were quickly arranged to go online to clarify, and other KOCs from ShanYun Auto posted online to declare that "Hello Mr. Chen" was not a KOC from ShanYun Auto.

But Huadi's fans disagreed, digging up a "Hello, President Chen" comment from six months ago.

"All the posts from this account are praising ShanYun Auto, with no information about any other companies. And they claim they're not a KOC (Key Opinion Consumer) for ShanYun Auto?"

"No, there's one about another company. He posted that he's not a KOC for Flash Cloud Autos. That's just like trying to hide something obvious."

"Upstairs, that was a farce orchestrated by Shanyun Auto to make him prove that I am not me. Shanyun was verbally abused to no end back then."

"Flash Cloud Auto is despicable. They dare to do it but not admit it. Fortunately, the internet remembers."

Poor thing, the person who posted the message is already fast asleep. The owner of this account is now venting his inexhaustible energy on He Qing. Jin Wuxian is taking the blame late at night and burning the midnight oil online.

After thinking for a moment, he sent a message to Chen Xiao: "Big brother, what are you going to do? Please let me off the hook."

He used to be quite arrogant towards Chen Xiao, but ever since he went to Dr. Feng's Robotics Technology Group with Jin Fu and was completely outmaneuvered by Chen Xiao, he no longer dared to joke with Chen Xiao. If it were before, he would have made a phone call long ago, but now he looked at the time and it was almost 11 p.m., so he didn't dare to make the call.

Fortunately, he didn't make a call. Chen Xiao was honing his marksmanship at that moment; making a phone call would have been suicidal, and he knew the retribution would fall on his old man, Jin Fu. FlashCloud Auto has now developed a serious dependence on Junxing Intelligent R&D Center's complete intelligent solutions, and he's genuinely afraid Chen Xiao will raise prices again.

Their annual demand for Flash Cloud Automotive is probably over 30 units. If the price of one unit increases by 5000 yuan, that's 15 billion yuan gone. They can't afford that.

The key is that they don't dare to say they don't need it yet, because their customers still recognize Junxing's intelligent driving solutions. In addition, Junxing's intelligent R&D center made such a big splash today, investing 1000 billion yuan every year in chip development, which has made Junxing's intelligent driving solutions even more famous and increased consumer acceptance.

Chen Xiao saw Jin Wuxian's message very late and assumed he was crazy. He hadn't done anything to target Shanyun Auto recently, and besides, he didn't care about that small company.

There's no reason for him to mess with FlashCloud Automotive now, since they're using Junxing Intelligent R&D Center's complete intelligent solutions and getting orders worth over a billion yuan a year. Why would he bother with them?

However, Xiao Yuting noticed this situation. She didn't expect Chen Xiao to be posting online so late at night. She thought to herself, "Don't be fooled by his lack of concern for the company. He's been working hard behind the scenes. No wonder the company is doing so well."

While she was thinking about these things, Chen Xiao was indeed working hard on He Qing, Xiao Yuting's best friend.

Looking at the 50,000 units ordered in just one hour by the Ruishi brand, Xiao Yuting still felt very uncomfortable. Could it be that they really succeeded?
Looking through the comments from fans of Junxing Auto, one comment read: "When the Ruishi N9 was launched last time, they also said that 20,000 units were ordered in one hour. But after half a year on the market, only 4000 units have been delivered. The Ruishi brand's large order figures are mostly inflated. Just take them with a grain of salt."

Feeling slightly relieved, Zhang Ruier pursed her lips and said, "Yuting, now that you're working at the company, you're even busier than when you were a model. You don't even have time for me anymore."

“You know how special things are these past two days. You yourself have been fighting them online until now, and you've only just stopped.”

At this point, Zhang Ruier nodded and said, "I'm just waiting for that tiger to die, then I'll see how I ridicule them. Also, Yuting, have you noticed how many online trolls they have? Should we join them?"

Xiao Yuting understood what she meant. If she really wanted to hire online trolls, she had plenty of money to spare. But Xiao Yuting felt that spending money on that was meaningless. It would be better to use it to increase the benefits for her KOCs and promote the company's current advantages, such as the 100 billion yuan investment in the Junxing Intelligent R&D Center to develop its own computing power chip. This would at least generate buzz for a while.

After a while, new topics will naturally emerge, and the topics keep coming.

The next day, the buzz surrounding the launch of the Ruishi N7L was completely overshadowed by the news of Junxing Intelligent's R&D center investing hundreds of billions in chip manufacturing. At that point, let alone the launch of the Ruishi N7L, even if the N7L sold 10 units per month, its influence would be far less than that of the latter.

The most active online groups right now are the KOCs and fans of Huadi Auto Group, as well as the KOCs and fans of Junxing Auto, with whom they have recently had a serious falling out. However, today, another group, Shanyun Auto, has joined the ranks of those criticizing the Ruishi N7L.

Xiao Yuting was completely baffled. Little did she know that after a night of deep thought, Jin Wuxian decided that since he had been tricked by Chen Xiao, why not go with the flow and help Shanyun Auto generate some traffic? Besides, this time he was fighting alongside Junxing Auto, so he wasn't alone. What was there to wait for? He immediately gave the order—Go for it.

Inside the Jiangzhou Design Institute, Bai Sheng looked at the report with deep emotion. Dr. Feng Robotics Technology Company used to rely on orders from his side to survive. Now look at the scale of their company. Of the 1000 billion yuan invested by Junxing Intelligent R&D Center, Dr. Feng Robotics Technology Group will spend 200 billion yuan every year.

The Jiangzhou Design Institute's annual output value is less than 70 billion yuan. In just one year, the world has changed dramatically. Bai Sheng thought of his awesome brother-in-law and sent a message to Bai Lu: "My dear sister, I would like to ask to meet your brother-in-law."

After waiting for a long time without receiving a reply, Bai Sheng paced back and forth in his office in frustration. His younger sister was becoming more and more outrageous. If this continued, would he, as the older brother, have any standing in the family?

In Bai Lu's office, Chen Xiao was discussing rear-wheel drive technology with her when his phone rang. He patted her ample buttocks and said, "There's a message. Should we pause?"

She twisted her waist: "No, continue."

"You have to do things in one go, you can't give up halfway," Chen Xiao continued. He had always been a strong supporter of Bai Lu.

Three hours later, Bai Sheng finally received a reply from his sister: "Why did you see him?"

What could Bai Sheng do with Chen Xiao? Of course, he'd chat about everyday things and deepen their relationship. Having such an awesome brother-in-law, it would be a waste of resources not to visit him often. Maybe one day Chen Xiao would slip a little something out of his fingertips and his annual output value would double.

Bai Sheng was incredibly envious of the rapid development of Dr. Feng's Robotics Technology Group.

A short while later, Bai Lu replied: "He doesn't have time to chat with you. Do you think everyone is as free as you?"

Bai Sheng almost went into a rage. He was the boss of a trillion-dollar group, and he was indeed very busy, which was understandable. But he was also working diligently, okay? He was a general manager, but did Bai Lu get a share of the profits? That was too much, really too much. How could she talk about her own brother like that?

In the office, Bai Lu rested for a while and then stood up. "Let's go, Chen Xiao, let's go for a walk, and then you can take me to see Sister Xiangjun."

Chen Xiao laughed. These women were now all thinking about paying respects to the powerful figures, which he didn't object to; on the contrary, he was happy to see it happen. What he hated most was the thing Guo Sheng had done, but fortunately, Guo Fu had been subdued by him with his Vajra Pestle when she came last time.

As for the other women, he felt they should pay homage to Xu Wu and see how she handled things. He had a selfish motive: he knew Xiang Jun was a person who hated trouble, just like him. In the future, Xu Wu would probably be the one to mediate the relationships between these people, so Xiang Jun and he could be lazy again.

{Sigh, I wonder if Xu Wu would want to bite me if she found out. Well, let her bite me if she wants, however she wants.}
Ever since he and Bai Lu had their little encounter in the office, he'd actually grown to like the atmosphere; it felt quite nice to do it every now and then. Yesterday's launch event at Junxing Intelligent R&D Center shocked the nation, and all these women sent congratulatory messages. After replying to them all, he remembered he hadn't seen Bai Lu for a few days, so he came over to catch up. (End of Chapter)
