Chapter 943 New driverless promotion plan

At this time, Google’s pressure is very low. The more other industries can’t do it, the more Google relies on advertising. At this time, 95% of Google’s profits come from advertising, and those famous projects have been burning money. , None of them can make money.

If you let Google give up advertising, it would be equivalent to letting Google die.

“Is Ying Haiwei crazy?” Eric called Page and Brin to his office and couldn’t help but complain.

Peppa’s face was very ugly, and he pressed his voice a little bit, “Although I haven’t fully understood how Yinghaiwei will make a profit, we can basically confirm one point. Yinghaiwei’s profit point should be placed more on the enterprise side. .

. At present, the search engines of both Taobao and Qingfeng.com are developed by Yinghaiwei. Yinghaiwei has opened up the information channel with so many applications. Behind this is definitely a huge enterprise-side transaction.

Yinghaiwei no longer uses user traffic to earn corporate advertising fees, but uses user traffic to make other aspects of the company’s money. I heard that there are big data analysis services. ”

Brin asked directly, “Do we have the possibility to change the profit model now?”

“Almost impossible.” Page bluntly said, “Advertising profit has always been the foundation of the platform. Twitter and YouTube have all relied on advertising to make money. In the US, it can even be said that in our entire Western world, almost no one tries to do it. Break this tradition.

It can only be said that Huaxia Enterprise has always had more ideas on the profit model. ”

“Then perhaps Ying Haiwei will not have much impact on us this time from the point of view of advertising alone?”

“No one can say it is bad now, and Ying Haiwei has not just given up on advertising, they have pushed the search engine forward by a generation.

This is what users care about most. ”

Page had to face reality and said, “Our market share can no longer fall. Now both quantum computing and artificial intelligence are waiting for blood transfusion, and they have reached the most critical stage of development. At this time, the pressure is really very high. Big.”

“Consider another issue of Class C stocks. I will talk to investors. Now we will protect the cash flow first, and there will be time for other problems to be solved slowly.” Eric quickly made a decision because of Google at this time. There is no other choice.

The three people had a meeting together for a night. They were about to have breakfast at 5 o’clock in the morning and go back to sleep. The new news came to them.

Dafeng Group will sign a new unmanned driving promotion plan with many Chinese companies including Yinghaiwei. Starting from January 1, 2019, Dafeng Group and these companies will accelerate the promotion of unmanned driving on a global scale. The early promotion platform is popular.

“Why does Fengxing have such a large market share now?” Eric looked at the data somewhat unexpectedly, “More than doubling in a year?”

“Uber was caught in a storm of public opinion and it was difficult to extricate itself. Fengxing seized this opportunity and quickly swallowed the Uber market. At this time, it is difficult for Uber to stand up.”

Page still has some doubts, “but Uber before that is blunt, it can be considered as a relatively successful development in four or five countries such as the United Kingdom and France, and it has almost no advantage in the confrontation with local brands in other countries.

try{mad1(‘gad2’);}catch(ex){}   It’s just that Uber has been relying on the rogue development model to force local brands in various countries to cope with it, creating the illusion that Uber has a relatively large global influence.

If Uber really falls, it is said that local brands in various countries should rise. It will not be the turn of the popular to develop like this, right? ”

“This is the difference between Fengxing and Uber. If Uber goes to a country to expand its plate, if it fails to develop, it sells the market to local brands and exchanges a certain amount of shares. Uber has tasted the sweetness of China and Southeast Asia through this model, just like What you said, Uber is a rogue company, but it is indeed a very smart company with a deep understanding of the capital operation rules of this era.

On the other hand, Fengxing went to talk to others about cooperation after fighting with local companies, and spent a year or two in various countries to build a foundation and build a good relationship with the local government. So now more and more countries have appeared. Fengxing and local brands are divided into two parts or three parts of the world.

Although Fengxin has almost no monopoly on the online car-hailing market in any country, it is among the top three leading companies in most countries, and its global market share is unmatched. “Brin still has a better understanding of the prevailing situation.

Eric quickly understood the meaning behind these operations. “Dafeng Group wants more than just money, but uses the market share opened by Fengxing to promote more follow-up promotion. Speed ​​up promotion.”

“There will be a press conference in a while, let’s watch the live broadcast first.”

The three of them are not in the mood to sleep anymore, eating breakfast while waiting for the press conference of Dafeng Group, Yinghaiwei and other companies.

chase yo literature zhuiyo.com . At the press conference, Gu Junhui made a simple interpretation of the basis and purpose of cooperation this time.

chase yo literature . “The reason why we want to start the new driverless promotion plan in 2019 is due to the very successful market trials in 2018.

Starting from New Year’s Day in 2018, driverless driving has become a core development direction for us. In less than a year, we have tested 3,200 driverless cars worldwide through Fengxing, and the total test history has exceeded 100 million. Kilometers.

In 2018, a large amount of data was provided for the deep learning algorithm of unmanned driving, and with the help of promotion in countries around the world, we can face more uncertain factors. After all, the environment, road construction, and surrounding facilities in different countries are different. In the same way, driverless driving can be made smarter.

At the same time, in this year’s trial, we not only trained the algorithm, but also used market data to continuously optimize core components including lidar and millimeter wave radar.

So now we have the confidence and ability to announce to everyone that starting from 2019, we will join forces with Yinghaiwei, BYD, Geely and other companies to start large-scale commercial mass production of advanced driverless cars.

try{mad1(‘gad2’);}catch(ex){}   There are two key words here. First, commercial mass production. We plan to mass produce 100,000 driverless cars in 2019, and it will gradually increase in the future.

. Second, advanced driverless cars, in simple terms, are driverless cars that no longer require safety officers.

And our unmanned commercial landing will start from popular.

Starting in 2019, more users around the world can get unmanned ride-hailing cars through Fengxing.

. We have 58 top cities worldwide, of which China has three cities, namely Hangzhou, Shanghai, and Chang’an. ”

Everyone actually guessed what the new promotion plan is. After all, it has been promoted to this point in 2018, but I can’t help but talk about the result when I’m really sure.

suyingwang.net . “Huaxia Enterprise has taken another step ahead in a key area. This step is of great significance.”

“No, this is a brand new field. Once unmanned driving starts mass production on a large scale, it will affect the entire ecosystem. Take lidar as an example. Now Dafeng Group’s lidar and Google’s lidar are the most in the industry. Two radars that are highly respected.

However, because the output of unmanned vehicles has always been too small, the price of lidar remains high. If China takes the lead in mass production of unmanned vehicles, the Lidar of Dafeng Group will naturally reduce the price, and then other unmanned car companies in the future Naturally, it will give priority to Dafeng Group’s lidar.

Unless Google can make a great breakthrough, it seems unlikely at the moment. ”

“The high cost of driverless cars is not only in spare parts, but also in operating costs.

Google said before that even if their Waymo starts large-scale commercial use, they must continue to burn at least 5 years of money, because Google does not have any relevant business operation experience.

And Google mentioned that the most likely pre-operational model is to cooperate with online ride-hailing platforms such as Uber and Didi.

But Dafeng Group has its own popular online car-hailing platform with the highest global market share, which directly solves the profit problem of large-scale commercial landing.

A perfect advantage. ”

“When I saw Dafeng Group’s online car-hailing and live broadcast, I felt that the company had to blend everything. Now it is more and more discovered that all the industries that Dafeng Group blended have deeper significance in the follow-up.

Google’s unmanned driving failed to seize this opportunity, and there may really be no chance of turning over again. ”
