Talking more with Elon · Musk, Li Mu knows that the original Silicon Valley big guys and big companies like to pick up leaks in major science and engineering departments university Taobao.
The so-called Taobao leak detection is actually searching for small entrepreneurial projects or R & D projects of students in major universities. Like angel investment, as long as the meaning seems to be more correct and the direction is more appetizing, immediately invest a sum of money Buy out or hold this project.
Elon · Musk itself is a technology maniac, and he particularly admires the technical aspects, so according to his statement, in the next period of time, he is going to run several university of the top science and technology in the United States. All the projects related to battery charge and discharge management, motor, transmission, and dynamic power distribution are investigated. As long as they can vote, all are invested, because in his eyes, sometimes, these students who are purely engaged in research and development with enthusiasm, Instead, it can burst beyond creativity.
Li Mu very much agrees with this view of Elon · Musk. Many large companies in Silicon Valley are actually small entrepreneurship or R & D projects on the university campus. The famous Cisco was originally a pair of Stanford university professor husband and wife as a small business project Launched, it is now a giant in the internet industry, and as an enterprise with hardware and solutions as its main business, Cisco is much stronger in the internet field than the general internet company.
Thinking of the future development trend of new energy, Li Mu said to Elon · Musk: "After returning to Silicon Valley, proceed to company registration. After registration, I immediately put the money into the company account. By the way, your company name is yours. Any ideas? "
Elon · Musk immediately said: "Yes! I want to name it Tesla!"
Li Mu smiles at the corner of his mouth, thinking that this kind of person is really obsessed. If Elon · Musk is given ten chances of rebirth and every time he resets his memory, he should give the direction of new energy vehicles ten times. The company named Tesla, Li Mu feels that this brothers's respect for Tesla should have risen to the level of life idol.
However, Li Mu still asked the pretense curiously: "Tesla? Are you talking about the American electrical inventor of the last century?"
"Yes, yes!" Elon · Musk said with great excitement: "It is him, Nikolai Tesla, the biggest idol of my life, a god-like person."
Speaking of this, Elon · Musk looks at Li Mu, seriously said: "Chief Li, I think after a few years, my biggest idol will become you, because I believe that your future achievements will definitely be above Tesla. In the early twenties, this is really terrible. Whenever I see your young and even a little childish face, I think of the huge industry you created, and I feel that life is boring. "
Li Mu haha smiled and said, "You do n’t want to shoot me **** because I ’m your future boss. Tesla is also a great man in my eyes, so I do n’t accept you comparing me with him, but you To name the company Tesla, I agree with both hands. Tesla itself is an electrical genius, and what we want to do is also an electric car. In a strict sense, Tesla is our grandfather, named after him, It is also a respect for him. "
Speaking, Li Mu sighed and said: "The global fame of Tesla is not proportional to his contribution to the world. He is a great man who has been largely forgotten. Since we want To be an electric car, to a certain extent, is to inherit his mantle, so it is also responsible for rectifying his name on a global scale so that the world can understand him better. "
Elon · Musk was suddenly excited, folded his hands, and sighed to Li Mu: "Chief Li, China has an old saying that the sergeant died for a confidant, you are my confidant!"
Li Mu smiled and said: "Since Tesla is your biggest idol, then you must go all out to make Tesla."
Elon · Musk nodded and asked, "Chief Li, I'll just resign from PayPal."
Li Mu said: "The significance of leaving from PayPal is not very important now. The core work of Tesla in the early stage of creation is R & D. I suggest that you continue to stay at PayPal first, and then find a suitable place to place the R & D team of Tesla in Silicon Valley. Come near you too. "
Seeing that Elon · Musk has some doubts, Li Mu explained: "Remaining in PayPal can help you accumulate more industry resources. After all, PayPal is developing like this now. More and more physical companies will deal with PayPal in the future. At this location, you can get additional resources. "
PayPal ’s recent development is indeed very amazing. The main reason for this is that all the value-added service payments of Muye Science and Technology overseas are basically through PayPal, which brings huge turnover and profits to PayPal. Li Mu has no payment foundation overseas. In addition, Muye Science and Technology is already a shareholder of PayPal, so Li Mu is not going to prepare another overseas payment channel, so that PayPal has a huge development dividend from Muye Science and Technology.
In the future, PayPal's position in the internet industry will be higher and higher. In this case, Elon · Musk will also be highly sought after in the industry, and the payment channel has a very big advantage: it is more than other online products. It is closer to offline, because it is not the user's computer, but the user's wallet. In this way, in the future stage of rapid development of e-Commerce, the real economy will become increasingly dependent on PayPal.
What Tesla will do is the new energy vehicle manufacturing industry. In the future, it must deal with many parts suppliers in the world. If the name of PayPal is still hanging behind Musk, in the process of bargaining with these suppliers, He can get a greater tilt and concession. If he resigns now and concentrates on Tesla, on the one hand, he can't help in the pure technology development stage, on the other hand, he also lost huge resource channels.
Elon · Musk understands the purpose of Li Mu's. although is full of blood and hopes to pour it on Tesla, but Li Mu does look more pragmatic. Tesla does not need him to be a full-time CEO, at least not in the future. .
After that, Elon · Musk said to Li Mu: "Chief Li, then I will continue to work at PayPal, and then set up Tesla in Silicon Valley, and quickly start the concentrated research and development of Tesla battery and motor fields."
Li Mu nodded and asked him: "The battery and motor are developed by themselves. Where does the platform technology of the car come from?"
Ordinary people say that the three major parts of the car mean that the essence of the car is the three directions of power, transmission and chassis. Tesla can solve the power and transmission by itself, but the chassis technology is not capable of it.
Moreover, Li Mu thinks that the three major items are not the most important, and the production platform is the most important. Only enterprises with the strength to build a production platform can be called a true automobile manufacturing enterprise.
Elon · Musk is different from Li Mu's. He said: "Chief Li, I don't think the platform actually needs to be considered so early. What we really lack is chassis technology. Then we can choose a car company to buy their chassis. Technology, even handing over the chassis directly to OEM (original equipment manufacturer) supplier, or even handing over the car body frame to other companies OEM (original equipment manufacturer) supplier. In this way, we only need to build our own assembly production line to achieve mass production. "
Li Mu shook his head straight.
No wonder your Tesla is difficult to deliver all day and night, and you will lose a lot of money every time. If you build a car according to your thinking mode, you will be blamed for not losing money.
Elon · Musk shook his head as he saw Li Mu, and hastily nervously asked: "Chief Li, is there anything wrong with what I said?"
Li Mu sighed again. looks at said seriously, "Elon, I believe Tesla can design and produce the best new energy vehicle in the world under your leadership, but ..."
When Li Mu comes here, the tone is a lot heavier, paused, and continued: "But! Under your leadership, Tesla will definitely not become the most successful new energy vehicle manufacturer in the world, even I am extremely extreme I suspect that if you do not change your thinking in time, Tesla will go bankrupt in your hand someday. "
"Why ..." Elon · Musk is extremely puzzled, but Li Mu said so seriously, and made his heart panic.
You can use In short to make Elon · Musk have very few people. The younger Li Mu may be the only one.
Seeing that Elon · Musk was a little flustered, Li Mu explained to him: "internet thinking is really advanced, and environmental thinking is also very advanced, but it does not mean that you can find the right direction with these two thinkings to do real industries. . "
Finally, Li Mu picked up a Zippo placed on the coffee table and hit cigarette lighter and asked him: "How many kinds of cigarette lighter does Zippo have?"
Elon · Musk subconsciously said: "It's uncountable, too many."
Li Mu asked again: "Will Zippo build a production line for each cigarette lighter?"
Elon · Musk hastily said: "Of course not."
Li Mu nodded and said, "Zippo wants to cope with the production of thousands of different styles, so its production line must be designed to be very compatible with itself, at least 80% of the styles can be in the same A production line is produced, are you right? "
Elon · Musk agrees: "I believe this must be the case."
Li Mu said again: "Then you are not going to build a real car production platform, just build an assembly line. Are you going to only make Tesla produce a model in the future?"
Elon · Musk was particularly embarrassed, he said without confidence: "Chief Li, to be honest, to a certain extent, I really think so. What I think is that at each stage of Tesla, only one classic model is launched. So we do n’t need to build a very versatile platform, we just need to build a production line for this model. "
The dumbfounded looks at of Li Mu, In short emerged in a while: "You stupid!"
