BYD's Technology Focus and Leadership in New Energy Vehicles
TapTechNews June 25th news. Last night, He Zhiqi, the executive vice president of BYD, released a message saying that recently, some media suggested that BYD's press conferences always talk about technology, and it could also talk about something else, at least it could increase the traffic. To be honest, a press conference is only about one hour or so, we haven't even explained the technology clearly and understandably to consumers, so there is no time to talk about other things.
He Zhiqi stated that if the press conference could last for a day, we would still prefer to talk about technology, such as how the hybrid technology achieves fuel savings, and then talk about how the pure electric technology platform saves power, talk about high-voltage charging, high-speed motors, and silicon carbide chips, so as to avoid causing embarrassment sometimes. If there is time, we can also talk about how special engineering plastics are more advanced and lighter than ordinary aluminum materials, which is what we are good at, and we won't do other things that we don't know, and the company also doesn't allow random talking. Moreover, the release of core top technologies doesn't lack traffic naturally, it's the natural traffic king.
He Zhiqi also frankly admitted that we won't teach others how to make cars, how to build brands, and how to tell stories. New energy vehicles are new things themselves, as leaders, we are still crossing the river by feeling the stones.
