Urban God-level Youth-Chapter 587 - 589 Jiangqi Group
Qin Hao said to Du Yingqiang, "Mr. Du, the intelligent ship technology is being researched and should be out before long."
Du Yingqiang nodded, "Everything is ready, we're just waiting for your smart chips, Mr. Qin."
Qin Hao smiled and said, "You won't have to wait too long, Mr. Du."
After chatting for a while, Qin Hao stood up to leave; he felt that Xia Qing and her family should be arriving soon.

After leaving the club, Li Qingya and Li Qingyun caught up with him, "Do you have time, Mr. Qin?"
Qin Hao looked at the twin sisters, "What is it, Miss Li?"
Li Qingya smiled faintly, "A friend wants to meet you, and we're helping to introduce you. If you're busy, Mr. Qin, another day is fine."
Qin Hao glanced at his watch and said, "Will twenty minutes be enough?"
"That's enough, please follow us, Mr. Qin." Li Qingya and Li Qingyun got into the car and led the way.
Qin Hao followed them to a teahouse, where the sisters led him to a private room.
Li Qingya knocked on the door before pushing it open and entering. Inside sat a mature woman around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years of age, holding a teacup and sipping tea with an elegant posture and full of grace.
Upon seeing Li Qingya, her sister, and Qin Hao enter, she put down her teacup and stood up with a smile, "Please sit down, Mr. Qin, Qing Ya, Qing Yun."
Qin Hao glanced at Liang Xiyu, not recognizing her, having never met her before!
The three of them sat down, and Li Qingyun said to Liang Xiyu, "Mr. Qin has other matters to attend to and only has twenty minutes."
"That's enough, thank you." Then she turned to Qin Hao, "Hello, Mr. Qin, my name is Liang Xiyu."
Qin Hao nodded, "What is it that you need from me, Miss Liang? Just say it directly."
In Jianghai City, Liang Xiyu was also a figure of note, hardly anyone didn't know her, but Qin Hao just happened to be one of the few who didn't.
From his response, Li Qingya could tell that Qin Hao probably didn't know Liang Xiyu's identity, "Mr. Qin, Miss Xiyu is the vice president of Jiangqi Group, and her father is the chairman and general manager."
Qin Hao was taken aback and gave an embarrassed smile, "So it's Mr. Liang, my apologies, Mr. Liang, I don't pay much attention to the people and affairs of the business world."
Liang Xiyu smiled lightly, "You're too modest, Mr. Qin. Today I asked Qing Ya and Qing Yun to arrange a meeting with you because I would like to discuss a partnership with you."
"Artificial intelligence unmanned driving cars?" Qin Hao asked.
Liang Xiyu nodded, "Mr. Qin, our Jiangqi Group is also a government enterprise, with the state holding a fifty-one percent share. We are among the top three in technological strength nationwide, and our Roewe series of sedans have always topped sales in the low-end car market since their launch."
Chang Jing was just planning to approach them for a partnership, but to his surprise, the Jiangqi Group had already taken the initiative to seek him out.
Liang Xiyu said, "I mention these points to let Mr. Qin know the strength of Jiangqi Group. As a domestic car brand, we are certainly a reliable partner."
Li Qingya and Li Qingyun inwardly marveled upon hearing Liang Xiyu's words, thinking that even a large government enterprise like Jiangqi Group was eagerly seeking partnership with him—it was truly impressive.
Qin Hao spoke up, "Our Xinghai Company is also interested in finding car manufacturers to partner with, but the targeted type of partnership is the low-end car market."
The low-end car market?
Liang Xiyu was taken aback, "Mr. Qin, the mid-to-high-end market has larger profits, why not aim for the mid-to-high-end market?"
Qin Hao said, "Because I will be handling the mid-to-high-end market myself. Of course, I won't stop Mr. Liang from venturing into the mid-to-high-end market, but if you end up losing everything, don't blame me for not warning you now."
The three were taken aback. Own the mid-to-high-end market? Was he planning to enter the automotive industry?
Big brother, you haven't even gotten the internet sector right yet, why are you entering the automotive industry now? For cars, you guys are completely blank on engine technology and various other technologies.
Although Qin Hao lacked experience, the three didn't dare underestimate him. Qin Hao had no experience in the internet before, but now? He had become a dominator on the internet.
Nothing he did ever fell short.
Liang Xiyu agreed very readily, "Okay, since Mr. Qin is involving the mid-to-high-end market, then our Jiangqi Group will only make models for the low-end car market."
Qin Hao nodded, "Do you have a plan for the specific division of partnership benefits, Mr. Liang?"
This was the key point of the partnership. Without benefits, who would want to cooperate?
Liang Xiyu: "Mr. Qin, first we need to determine if the cost will increase. For example, if we switch to a smart motherboard and an intelligent system to operate the car, how much would the cost increase for a car that normally sells for sixty to seventy thousand?"
Qin Hao: "Not too much higher, an ordinary car smart motherboard is only a few thousand, but we need to set it after it's researched."
The cost was not high at all, of course, the price was set by Qin Hao. As this was a high-end monopoly technology, he could set it at any amount, but setting it too high didn't make sense, as the low-end car market values cost-effectiveness.
Liang Xiyu: "Mr. Qin, I have two methods of benefit distribution, one is a buyout cooperation, and the other is a car sales revenue sharing model."
"What's the split for the car sales model?"
"The most I can give Mr. Qin is a thirty to seventy split. Xinghai High-tech Company three, Jiangqi Group seven. After all, we need to bear the production costs of the engine, the car frame, and so on."
This division was not small by any means. Qin Hao nodded, "Discuss the follow-up details with Mr. Chang, I will notify Mr. Chang."
Liang Xiyu's face lit up with joy: "Thank you, Mr. Qin."
This was already an initial agreement on cooperation. If they could really cooperate with Xinghai High-tech Company, it would be a great joy for the Jiangqi Group.
The Jiangqi Group had already been behind other automotive groups in the field of autonomous driving, let alone those world car manufacturers.
Jifeng Group was not only cooperating with Zhongjia Smartphone, but they also reached a cooperation agreement with Tenglong Group and had been researching autonomous driving all along.
Changli Automotive Group and Qian Du Company were collaborating, and Qian Du Company was slightly more powerful than Tenglong Group in the research of artificial intelligence.
Those foreign car manufacturers were also researching the future of autonomous cars, and high-end cars like BMW had already launched features such as driverless parking.
However, if Xinghai High-tech Company were to cooperate with them, the situation would change. They might become the first group in the world to apply artificial intelligence to cars.
Qin Hao's phone rang; it was Xia Qing calling: "Qin Hao, we are almost there."
"Okay, I'll come to pick you up now," Qin Hao hung up and said to Liang Xiyu, Li Qingya, and Li Qingyun, "I have some matters to attend to and must leave now."
"Mr. Qin, take care," Liang Xiyu and the others stood up to see him off before returning to the private room.
Liang Xiyu said to Li Qingya and her sister, "Qing Ya, Qingyun, thank you both."
Li Qingya asked curiously, "Xiyu, Mr. Qin hasn't researched autonomous driving, are you so sure that he can come up with it quickly?"
Liang Xiyu: "You might not be aware of some news. Yesterday, an unmanned combat aircraft from Xuan Country won the championship at the world unmanned combat aircraft competition. A model called 'War Hawk' shot down eighteen unmanned combat aircraft from other countries without a scratch, shocking all nations, and this unmanned intelligent combat aircraft is a product of the cooperation between the military and Xinghai High-tech Company."
