CTOnews.com, January 12 (Xinhua)-- Weilai CEO Li Bin said in an interview with China Entrepreneur Magazine today that Weilai makes mobile phones not to compete with Huawei and Xiaomi, but to meet the needs of users.

He pointed out that the coordination of mobile phones and cars is becoming more and more important. for him, Weilai mobile phones can sell hundreds of thousands of units, and half of the users will be very happy to buy them, and feel that they have achieved their goals. Car users have little pressure to switch to the same brand of mobile phone, while mobile phone users switch to the same brand of car, Li Bin thinks that only Apple can do that.

In addition, he Xiaopeng, the CEO of Xiaopeng, was asked in an interview, "what do you think of Lei Jun? what is his influence on you?"

He replied, "I have never felt that Lei Jun is my opponent, that is, mentor and eldest brother. We often chat together, but in a way, I don't want to be him. I think he is too tired and works too hard."

In addition, he said, "because building a car is a long cycle, it can take 24 to 48 months, when you need to plan the environment, changes and ideas at that time." If the plan is not clear, you will be very painful. Back in 2022, I think the first thing that has not been done well is the failure to judge the impact of changes in the industry and macro changes on the automobile industry. For example, it was not judged that the increase in battery prices would be so high. What's the hardest thing about 2021? The supply of chips. What's the hardest thing about 2022? The increase in the price of the battery. The battery went up by 60%, resulting in a 20% increase in vehicle costs.
