Chapter 414 Future Transportation
Chapter 414 Future Transportation
This year's "Fortune" forum has more than a dozen themes, such as "Technology, Innovation and the Emerging World", "Future Transportation", "Innovation: Building a Sustainable Future" and so on.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the opening ceremony began, and the super boss stepped onto the podium to deliver a keynote speech:
"Ladies and gentlemen, on the occasion of the opening of the 2013 Chengdu Fortune Global Forum, I would like to extend my warm congratulations to the opening of the forum! I would like to express my sincere welcome to all the representatives!"
"As the clearest and most direct window to grasp the trend of the world economy, the Fortune Global Forum chose Huaguo and Rongcheng again after Shencheng, BJ, and Gangcheng, fully highlighting the world's interest in Huaguo's future development. Confidence will also effectively broaden the wealth gates of exchanges and cooperation between Sichuan and Sichuan provinces in the world. …”
The boss gave a speech on the stage, and Mu Yang savored the meaning of his words in the audience.
He knew better than anyone on the scene the development of Hua Kingdom in the next few years, including the development of Rongcheng and Yucheng.
Previously, Beautiful Country charged high tariffs on Xinghai Group's arc welding machines, which rose from 5% to 15%. Xinghai Group kept the FOB export price unchanged, anyway, the money to the company is the same.
Of course, with the high tariffs, the price of Xinghai brand arc welding machines in Pretty Country has also risen accordingly, but Xinghai brand arc welding machines have always been in short supply, and customers still pay the bill. I thought that Xinghai Group would lower the FOB price, but I didn't expect that Xinghai Group would not follow them. The consequence was that Xinghai Group's share of arc welding machines supplied to Pretty Country was reduced by half, and it was turned to other manufacturers.
Xinghai Group also announced that due to the 10% increase in tariffs in the beautiful country, the share of the beautiful country will be reduced.
When the customers of the beautiful country saw this announcement, they could only lose their temper at the ZF of the beautiful country.
Mu Yang has a temper: If I don't sell it to you, I can still make money!
Or, I would rather make less money than be angry with you!
The beautiful country wants to reduce tariffs and return to normal tariffs, but if it really wants to reduce tariffs, it will be a slap in the face, and this step is not easy.
"A peaceful and prosperous Hua country will bring more cooperation opportunities and a broader market space to all countries in the world.
Let us join hands to deepen cooperation, achieve mutual benefit and win-win results, benefit mankind and benefit the future. "
After the speeches by the bigwigs on the stage, the "Fortune" forum really started.
The staff removed the podium and moved a few seats to the stage to form a row facing the audience.
The format of the roundtable forum this morning was to include 7 guests including Mu Yang, except for the super bosses. The two hosts, male and female, interacted with each other by asking questions and discussing a certain topic.
These 7 bigwigs bragged about their outfits on stage, and the audience and media reporters listened to their discussions with an open mind.
So, as long as the strength is strong enough, farting will be considered delicious by others.
These 7 guests will have a very big impact on the world economy. They are big bosses, and the guests in the audience can see the direction signs after listening to their speeches.
For example, Mu Yang said that in the next ten years, the market share of new energy vehicles may reach 50%.
This amount of information is very large. It is said that the Star Sea Group will increase investment in new energy vehicles, and the supporting chain companies related to new energy vehicles will definitely increase research and development efforts and investment.
Of course, for the Rongcheng ZF, the main purpose of hosting the "Fortune" forum is to attract investment. According to history, a total of 74 projects were signed in three days, with a total project investment of 112 billion yuan.
After Mu Yang and others came to the stage and sat down, the two hosts opened the topic according to their lines: "This forum is very fortunate to have invited 7 guests, and now I would like to introduce them grandly. From left to right, the first one is the beautiful Guoqiancai. President Henry Paul; second place, Lars Dennison, global senior vice president of Wo Erwo...fifth place, Mr. Mu Yang, chairman of Xinghai Group..."
"Huaguo has a new future, and the world looks at Rongcheng. The fourth Huaguo tour of the Fortune Global Forum chose the western city of Rongcheng, which shows the attention and confidence of the world's wealth in the development of Huaguo's west.
In recent years, the economic growth rate of the central and western regions has shown a momentum of catching up with that of the eastern regions. In the first quarter of this year, among the top 10 GDP growth rates in various provinces and municipalities, the central and western provinces occupied 8 seats; the added value of industries above designated size in the western region, fixed asset investment and other indicators were higher than the national average and the eastern region. area.
Over the past 13 years since the implementation of the Western Development Strategy, the comprehensive economic strength of the western region has been greatly improved, breakthroughs have been made in infrastructure and ecological environment construction, characteristic and advantageous industries have flourished, social undertakings have made great progress, reform and opening up have continued to deepen, and people's living standards have improved significantly. Historic appearance has changed. "
As the host narrated, Mu Yang was also recalling.
His high school classmates like to go to Rongcheng and Yucheng, like the hot pot here, um, also like the girls here.
I have to say that the overall beauty of the girls here ranks among the best in the former country.
In terms of the living environment, it is relatively comfortable here, and the pace is not as fast as that of coastal cities.
In private enterprises, there are more weekends. In Jiangnan province, there are very few private enterprises with weekends. Most of them are single holidays. If you are a worker, you rarely even have a break. Let alone labor law, it is reasonable and unreasonable. , this is the phenomenon locally.
The two hosts talked about the development of Rongcheng, and quickly cut to the topic of the first forum this morning, "The Temptation of Emerging Economies".
The guests chatted casually, Mu Yang didn't talk much, and mainly listened to them.
"I think the core basic point of adapting to emerging markets is to respect this market and local consumers, and you will be successful." Mr. Wan Dawang said, while criticizing the movie "Iron Man" for not respecting the Huaguo market and Respect the mistakes of Huaguo consumers,
"You can see that the Huaguo elements are also increasing in the movies of the Pretty Country. They see that the country is growing fast. The growth of the Pretty Country is 1% per year. After deducting price inflation, it is actually a negative growth. However, some companies in the Pretty Country want to make money from the Country, and they have to show To show off my arrogance and dominance, I picked two Hua country actors to go in and make soy sauce. What is even more stupid is to go to North America to cut this and put it in the North American version. If the beautiful country film company has this mentality and wants to make money in Hua country , and do not respect the market and the consumers in Hua Country, I think these companies will fail in Hua Country.
Mr. Wang spoke in a sonorous and forceful tone, and he didn't care that there were beautiful Chinese among the guests, so he said whatever he wanted to say.
Suddenly, he saw Mu Yang beside him smiling, and asked curiously,
"I see that Mr. Mu couldn't help laughing. If Mr. Mu has any opinions, he can share them with you."
Mu Yang smiled faintly: "Uh, I think Mr. Wang's words are very reasonable, and I agree with his point of view very much.
In the past few years, the film market of our family has occupied a relatively large share in the world, and Hollywood has also seen the huge market of our family, so they invited actors from our family to participate in the performances. Of course, as Mr. Wang said, they basically played soy sauce.
I think some actors in our GUO family are good, but it is difficult to enter.
Others, I have no opinion, I am not familiar with the film industry. "
The male host took over the topic and asked questions to other guests.
After about an hour, the topic turned to "Future Transportation".
The male host said: "When talking about future transportation, I think Mr. Mu from Xinghai Group, and Lars Dennison, the global senior vice president of Volvo, are both engaged in the automotive industry and know it better. Mr. Mu, Can you share your thoughts on this?"
Mu Yang thought for a while and said, "I'm just chatting casually, it's just my personal guess.
Transportation means will pursue efficiency, safety and autonomous driving in the future. I think this is a major trend;
For private transportation, that is, family cars, after ten years, the market share of new energy vehicles is likely to surpass that of gasoline vehicles, and the price of cars will become lower and lower. Even for ordinary families, it is not too difficult to buy a car. Difficult, the penetration rate of cars in rural areas will become higher and higher;
I remember ten years ago, in my hometown, there were only two vans in the village, not a single car.
In recent years, there have been more and more cars in the village. Whoever owns a car, even if it is a second-hand car, becomes the richest man in the village. "
Mu Yang's words made many people at the scene ponder.
Many of the audience are from rural areas, and they are familiar with the conditions in the countryside. Now it is really difficult for farmers to buy a car.
The hostess asked: "Mr. Mu, how high do you think private cars will be in rural areas in ten years' time?"
Mu Yang replied without hesitation: "The rural economic situation in different regions is different. Even after ten years, there are still poor families, and it is difficult to maintain a living. It is impossible to buy a second-hand car worth 20,000 to 30,000.
However, with the rapid growth of our country's economy, more and more people go out to work in rural areas, and the income is getting higher and higher. The rise of domestically produced cars and the price of cars have dropped below 100,000. Maybe it is impossible for each family to have a private car, but the average It is still easy to have one private car for every three or four families.
I said that this data refers to rural areas in ordinary economic areas. It cannot be compared with rural areas in remote areas that are too backward, nor is it the case of wealthy coastal rural areas. "
The hostess nodded: "If this is the case, the future life in the countryside will be beautiful and worth looking forward to."
The male host turned to Lars Dennison: "Mr. Lars Dennison, what do you think of Huaguo's auto market? As Mr. Mu said just now, Huaguo's car penetration rate will grow faster. Will ER Wo increase its investment in Hua Country?"
The host asked in Chinese, these foreigners wear earphones, and a simultaneous interpreter will translate for them.
Lars Dennison said: "I am very optimistic about the Huaguo market. In 2012, the number of newly registered vehicles in the world was about 68 million, a year-on-year increase of 4%. The growth points mainly come from the booming Huaguo market and the gradually recovering economy in the beautiful country market. ..."
After he finished speaking in English, there was a simultaneous interpreter on the spot to translate in Chinese to the audience, even if he couldn't understand what the foreigner said, it didn't matter.
Mu Yang didn't answer the question casually, he was cooperating with Rongcheng ZF to attract investment, if he wasn't optimistic about Huaguo's auto market, how could he attract foreigners to invest.
Next, other guests talked about flying cars, and discussed how long it would take for flying cars to become popular in Hua Country.
"It's hard to say. I don't think it's possible in the next five years, and it's still very close in ten years. It involves a lot of things, mainly traffic regulations." Mu Yang expressed his point of view. Overseas, private jets are more popular. , but it is difficult to popularize in China, because the air control is relatively strict.
He felt that it would not be difficult for him to build a flying car in the next five years. If it was just a propeller flying car, Mu Yang felt that he could make it within two years.
But it is not interesting to engage in propeller flying cars, and there is no technical difficulty.
It is easy to do, but the most difficult thing is the issue of air traffic regulations. At present, there are no regulations in this area in Hua Country.
With his influence in this life, it may change the development track.
Mu Yang still wants to make a flying car.
Lao Wang, who was sitting next to Mu Yang, also supported Mu Yang's statement: "I also agree with Mr. Mu's point of view, building a simple flying car should not be a problem for Xinghai Group, the main problem is air control.
To be honest, I am not very optimistic about this flying car. If two cars collide in the air, the consequences are not a joke. Even if they are not killed by the collision, they will probably be killed. "
Lao Wang's ridicule caused the audience to laugh, but what he said was true.
On the ground, there can be two cars. If the speed is not fast, even if they collide, it will be fine, and the car will be damaged at most.
But if it is in the air, if the car falls after the collision, it is really a car crash.
In the audience, some guests were very dissatisfied with Mu Yang on stage, such as Mr. Liu.
Ever since he was bullied by Mu Yang once, he, who is almost an octogenarian now, has been "hacked" again into inaction and a negative example.
Mr. Liu felt very aggrieved when he saw Mu Yang's beauty on stage.
But he can't do anything about it, he is far stronger than himself, he is the richest man in the world, no matter power or money, he can't resist, he can only avoid it.
Before the opening ceremony, he saw Mu Yang and walked far away.
On the stage, Mu Yang didn't know what he thought about Mr. Liu. Everyone came from flying cars to airplane transportation, and asked whether airplanes would be eliminated in the future.
Asked by the host, Mu Yang expressed his personal opinion:
"In terms of air traffic, I think the waiting time is too long and the transfer is too much trouble.
Most of the airports are far away from the urban area. For example, when I came to Rongcheng this time, I need to take an hour's car to the airport and wait for more than an hour before boarding the plane;
After arriving at Shuangliu Airport, transfer another hour to the hotel.
Two hours by plane, the actual time spent on the whole journey is no less than 6 hours. I feel like a toss, let alone the average traveler.
At present, in the field of short- and medium-distance civilian travel, high-speed rail is the absolute first choice. Even if the time is longer than that of the plane, its stable fare and relatively efficient boarding and exiting procedures will become everyone's favorite. factor.
Ultimately, it is safety. Although airplanes are regarded as the safest, the premise is that safety is measured by mileage, and if measured by number of times, I think the safety of airplanes is not as good as that of railways.
But it is undeniable that high-speed rail cannot replace airplanes at this stage, but in the future, if there is a technology tree that is further lit up, and there is a high-speed rail that exceeds the speed, energy consumption, and carrying capacity of an airplane, such as a super vacuum high-speed rail, then what the airplane has The advantage is at stake. "
Speaking of this, Mu Yang also intends to change the status quo of domestic traffic.
If the speed of bullet trains increases from 350 kilometers per hour to 500 kilometers per hour or even faster in the future, what kind of plane will they take?
In fact, if the speed can be stabilized at more than 350 kilometers per hour, there is really no advantage in flying for a journey within 2,000 kilometers.
Every Spring Festival, it is too painful for people to take a long-distance bus.
In the following forum discussions, Mu Yang didn't participate much, and didn't have any surprising words.
The imaginary stalker did not appear, which disappointed the media reporters.
In the sub-forum, Mu Yang presided over the discussion on the prospect of future transportation, which is also the theme of his invited speech.
After the "Fortune" forum, Mu Yang included high-speed rail technology in his research and development plan.
It is Mu Yang's ideal goal to keep the plane alive, to do something good for the public.
Sorry for the poor writing of this chapter.
Cold, headache, runny nose for a few days, don't say it's an excuse, the group has prescribed a medicine list, and the old farmer doesn't even bother to use this as an excuse
