Lei Jun: It's good to unify the ecology of automobile enterprises. Li Bin: Let Xiaomi join the power exchange alliance

Recently, Lei Jun, the founder of Xiaomi Technology, led a team to visit Li Bin, the founder of Weilai. While watching the new Lando L60 of Weilai, Li Bin and Lei Jun also exchanged their suggestions. As Weilai is the core backbone of the electric vehicle power exchange alliance, Li Bin also lobbied Lei Jun to join the power exchange alliance, We urge Xiaomi to join the power exchange alliance.

Li Bin said that from the pure power grid to the power exchange, only a slight adaptation of the chassis is needed, and the cost of a single vehicle is only increased by more than 1000 yuan. In the reserved work of the power exchange version, the R&D expense has also increased by tens of millions of yuan. But at the same time, with the new car of the power exchange version, the market increase can be at least 20%, and the cost can be recovered in a few months, Especially for the electric vehicle users without charging piles, the power replacement scheme will be a better choice than the charging scheme.

Of course, Lei Jun did not make a relevant positive response to Li Bin's suggestion. Obviously, in the short term, Xiaomi Motors should not consider joining the power exchange alliance. Lei Jun's suggestion to Li Bin is to unify the ecological standard in the car. He believes that the price of ecological parts such as the rear screen of the car is too expensive. If domestic car companies can reach a consensus to unify the standard, It can reduce the purchase cost of these parts, and if the interface can be unified, different cars can also use each other's parts, which is obviously conducive to Xiaomi's business development. After all, Xiaomi's grocery store is not boasted.

It can be seen that this exchange between Li Bin and Lei Jun is a matter of their own words, and some consensus should not be reached in the short term. Of course, it is an indisputable fact that the camp of the power exchange alliance is growing at present. GAC, Chang'an, Geely, Chery, Jiangqi Group, Lutes, FAW and other brands have reached power exchange cooperation with Weilai, which is where Li Bin's confidence lies in lobbying Lei Jun, However, Li Bin's proposal may also be a prerequisite for reaching a unified ecological cooperation with Lei Jun, and it is up to Lei Jun to take over.
