Ideal and Weilai are both founders? What is the relationship between ideal and Weilai?

Some netizens joked about two new energy forces: no ideal and no future (homophonic). The relationship between ideal and Weilai is like a pair of tangled ones. He is my brother, holding a group to keep warm in the predicament and competing with each other in the fierce market.

Some people mistakenly think that Ideal and Weilai are founders, but they are not. The ideal CEO is Li Xiang, and the CEO of Weilai is Li Bin, but Li Xiang invested in Weilai Automobile as a shareholder. It is also because of the relationship between shareholders that many people think it is the same founder.

What is the relationship between ideal and Weilai?

At first, we talked about Li Yi, and everyone subconsciously mentioned Weilai ES8, so everyone's subconscious connection may be made by a car company, but in fact Li Yi was designed and manufactured by Chehejia, and Weilai ES8 was designed and manufactured by Weilai Automobile. They don't belong to the same car company, so the ideal has nothing to do with Weilai.

1, introduction of Li Xiang

High school began to be interested in IT industry, and two years later, bubble net was founded in 2000. In 2005, with the expansion of the Internet, car home, which is still the top car website in China, was founded. 20 15 founded Chehe Company, and on 20 18 launched the first product: Li ONE.

2. Introduction to Li Bin

Graduated from Peking University, a high flyers. Founded Easy Car Company in 2000. In 20 10, he led Easy Car and became the first overseas listed car internet company in China. In addition, he also served as the vice president of china automobile dealers association, and contributed to the automobile development in China. 20 14, led Li Xiang, Liu, Ma and other big bosses to set up "Weilai Automobile". At present, there are two pure electric SUV models: ES6 and ES8.

Li's latest situation

20 19, it is ideal to spend 650 million yuan to buy Lifan equity. Unexpectedly, the debt problem left by Lifan bought the "big pit" in the future. It has been listed as an executor for several times in a row, and its reputation has gone from bad to worse. Our own "extended program" has been eliminated in the post-electric vehicle era, and there are not many waves of performance improvement.

Then the latest new energy policy requires that the price before subsidy should be within 300,000, while the price in Li ONE is 328,000, so the extra part will be paid by users themselves, which further increases the financial pressure. In a word, now the ideal is shattered and the situation is really bad.

The latest situation of Weilai automobile

Weilai Automobile was also burning money at the beginning, and the past 20 19 was also struggling. Almost all the year round, we are laying off employees, reducing operating costs, and the most important thing is to find investors. For capital, once the capital chain breaks, it will soon be finished. On the afternoon of April 29th, Li Bin finally reached an agreement with relevant enterprises in Hefei, Anhui Province, and settled its headquarters in Hefei. At the same time, it brought in 7 billion funds and allowed investors to hold 24. 1% shares.

In this way, Weilai transferred from "intensive care unit" to "general ward", exceeding the target of 654.38+0.00000 vehicles in the first quarter, but the net loss was still 654.38+0.10.296 billion yuan. It's hard to say whether Weilai can put on a cotton-padded jacket before winter comes, but he has a unique vision. Including the layout of charging stations, the provision of dedicated channels for second-hand transactions, and the new energy policy that vehicles adopt the "power exchange mode" without the 300,000 threshold. Generally speaking, it is much better than the younger brother Li, but in the gambling agreement with the dealer, Weilai is still far from the "safety line" of 65,438+10,000 vehicles.
