Chapter 502: Chapter 227: Asking Aunt for Help

Li Yang gradually started to understand some of Bai Qing’s actions.

Bai Qing knows Yang Shanshan too well and knows that if you give Yang Shanshan money, she gets things done.

As for good or bad, Bai Qing doesn’t consider it at all because, in her mind, there’s no concept of good or bad.

If it were him in his previous life, he definitely wouldn’t be able to pass this hurdle.

Back home, Xue Ning was still awake, sitting on the sofa eating fruit and watching TV.

Seeing Li Yang return, she blinked and flaunted what she had in her hand.

Li Yang had never eaten fruit peeled and cut by his parents in his life.

As a child, he didn’t like apple skins, so his dad would just bite into it with his teeth and then... hand him a strangely-shaped peeled apple.

In his past life, he probably really disappointed his parents.

Shower, sleep.

He was very satisfied with his current living environment, everyone was happy, and he was also happy.

Lying in bed, he glanced at the situation with Wanliu Capital, which was quite eerie.

You could tell from the holdings that Jiang Banxia was continuously increasing the stakes in blue-chip stocks, barely stabilizing the situation.

But those blue-chip stocks were mostly declining, by one point or two, with very few stocks rising.

This indicated that those institutions were still selling off.

Of the dozens of stocks held by Wanliu Navigator Selection, less than one-fifth were rising, and the gains were pitifully low.

Yet, the net asset value of this fund still increased by 0.08%. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Though negligible, it still increased.

Therefore, by looking at the holdings, you couldn’t really tell how Jiang Banxia was operating.

The blue-chip stock market was nearing rock bottom.

Last year, the lowest price for Moutai was five hundred bucks, it once rose to seven hundred in the first half of the year, but now... it’s fallen to around six hundred.

For Jiang Banxia to stabilize under such heavy pressure, there must have been some tactical maneuvering in the intraday trading, otherwise, the net value should have dropped by about a point, which would be normal.

Chatted with Bai Qing for a while, browsed a bit on Weibo, and looked at the comments from netizens.

Some mentioned the interiors looking good, some mentioned liking the car models, and some said they were students hoping for a car gift from Li Yang.

Of course, he didn’t look at negative reviews.

Instead of wasting time on negative reviews, it’s better to check out the submissions from netizens.

From the beginning, Extreme Shadow Cars opened a submission channel for netizens, incorporating some design inputs into the car’s appearance, spending over five million in the process.

They also adopted some ideas in other aspects, as netizens’ imaginations are truly unmatched, far superior to those rigid designers.

It’s just that netizens aren’t very professional and don’t consider much about aerodynamics.

It’s like writing novels, a top-tier author doesn’t necessarily have the best ideas; they are just more professional and can make plain stories look good. But when it comes to imagination, some struggling authors might surpass them all.

Li Yang has been mingling on the internet for many years and has some level of appreciation.

It was past eleven when he fell asleep, not going to Xue Ning’s place, as the daytime exertions were too exhausting.

The next day, he went to the Extreme Shadow Cars Service Training Center to experience the training results.

It was better than expected; after over a month of training, everyone was able to assume their roles.

It’s not necessary to treat customers as gods because that’s not how it’s done in China, but at least treat customers as leaders.

The value of service lies precisely here, doesn’t it?

Li Yang valued this department a lot since, in two more months, Green Water Heaven and Earth would need them.

Coincidentally, the internship for this batch of trainees would end, and Green Water Group could directly come over to sign them up, symbolically giving some money. No one would say anything, anyway, because in Extreme Shadow Cars, his word is the law.

If Extreme Shadow Cars went public or had other shareholders, that wouldn’t be feasible.

He spent most of his time focusing on the first-generation intelligent driving algorithm for Extreme Shadow Cars, and the team rebuilt at the beginning of the year has now hit its stride.

The overall progress is okay. For now, achieving L3 level autonomous driving isn’t possible, but it barely manages some L2 level assisted driving capabilities.

Especially the collision avoidance system; the algorithm was modified based on the original one, and with the pre-installed laser radar in the car, the sensing is strong.

It’s just that the algorithm is somewhat more complicated compared to similar systems on the market.

The progress in related systems on the market hasn’t been great; at least Li Yang dares to say that in terms of this function, Extreme Shadow Cars is far ahead.

Li Yang introduced more advanced algorithm determinations, ahead by several years.

Software advancements are much simpler than hardware.

Everyone knows about the bottleneck software EDA; it’s not that it’s particularly difficult, mainly that it’s inescapable due to patents.

Patents can be good or bad. With a powerful background, patents are lethal weapons. Without enough background, patents are just tombstones of doom.

It’s like hydrogen energy; the small booklet eats up 80% of the fundamental patents, the easiest part. They leave the most challenging storage and safety of liquid hydrogen to others, wanting to wait for the technology to mature and rely on the ocean of basic patents, savoring every bite.

Then, they forgot they didn’t even have sovereignty... so, no one invited them to play.

As a result, they ended up on the wrong path, and the world became ruled by lithium batteries.

Just like that, Li Yang stayed in Jiangbei for over twenty days, returning home finally on August 27th.

During this time, he rarely went to Xue Ning’s bedroom; besides, Xue Ning doesn’t need it right now.

He focused most of his energy on the company, hastening several slow-moving projects.

Feng Xinli was also diligently mobilizing resources. By the latest February next year, Extreme Shadow Cars is slated to enter mass production.

Green Water Group recently completed a private placement process, with its market value reaching 5.6 billion.
