BYD achieved its second 5 million sales in just 15 months

On November 18, BYD held a press conference to celebrate its 30th anniversary and the 10 millionth new energy vehicle off the production line at BYD Xiaomo Industrial Park in Shenzhen Shenshan Special Cooperation Zone. At the press conference, Wang Chuanfu, Chairman and President of BYD Co., Ltd., first described BYD's 30-year entrepreneurial experience. From a 20-person entrepreneurial team in a small factory 30 years ago, relying on the engineering spirit of "daring to think, dare to do, and dare to persist", BYD has developed into a world-class enterprise with nearly one million employees today. BYD insists on using technological innovation to meet people's yearning for a better life, and uses practical actions to give back to the support of all sectors of society, car owners and employees.

Today, BYD has become the world's first automaker to achieve the 10 millionth new energy vehicle off the production line. This is not only a new milestone for BYD, but also a new milestone in the history of China's automobile industry development, marking that China has taken a solid step from an automobile power to an automobile powerhouse, and China's automobile industry has entered a stage of high-quality development. It took BYD 15 years to achieve the first 5 million vehicles, and only 15 months to achieve the second 5 million vehicles, once again refreshing the "acceleration" of China's automobile industry, and once again verifying that BYD is right to stick to the new energy route and the concept of technological innovation.

At the scene, Wang Chuanfu delivered BYD's 10 millionth new energy vehicle, the Denza Z9, to Feng Ji, founder and CEO of Game Science and producer of Black Myth: Wukong. Feng Ji said that he was very honored to be the owner of BYD's 10 millionth new energy vehicle, and in the future he would work with BYD to tell the Chinese story with world-class quality.

At the press conference, Wang Chuanfu said: "Dare to think, dare to act, and dare to persevere, which has brought BYD to where it is today. This spirit of "dare" belongs to both the Chinese people and BYD. BYD officially released the theme song "Dare" for its 30th anniversary, which is a magnificent hymn of courage and pays tribute to every brave dreamer who walks with it.

BYD's confidence is based on technology, and behind the technology is the engineering culture. Wang Chuanfu said: "The soul of engineers is the soul of BYD. Even if all our property, including factories, patents, and stocks, disappears, as long as the engineers are still there, we can always make a comeback." Qin Shuo, a well-known media person and humanities and financial observer, uses an external perspective to show the most real BYD to the outside world. He went deep into BYD's internal interviews with nearly 100 middle and senior managers and employee representatives, accumulated 200 hours of recording materials and about 1.5 million words of interview content, and finally wrote "The Soul of Engineers", which is also the only officially authorized book by BYD.

At the same time, Wang Chuanfu mentioned that BYD systematically sorted out the development process of the past 30 years, and personally took the lead and participated deeply in the writing of the "BYD Basic Outline". Wang Chuanfu said that this outline is not only a summary of BYD's past experience and the underlying logic of its development, but also a guiding program for the future. BYD has been thinking, talking and doing this for many years. In the future, BYD will continue to do this.

To thank tens of millions of users and nearly one million employees, BYD randomly selected 90 "Super Koi" winners and gave them the right to use new cars under the witness of the Shenzhen Pingshan Notary Office.

In addition, Wang Chuanfu announced that BYD has established a 3 billion charity fund plan, focusing on educational charity, setting up scholarships in many universities across the country, and donating new energy dissecting vehicles as science exhibits to secondary vocational schools, museums and science and technology museums across the country, to stimulate students' interest in automotive technology and industrial manufacturing, and help cultivate more outstanding engineers.

BYD's current achievements are inseparable from the attention and support from all walks of life. Wang Chuanfu gave back to the society, car owners and employees with four "30s" and sincerely thanked the partners who have been with him all the way.

At the age of 30, I am grateful for my peers. In the second half of the intelligentization, BYD will invest 100 billion yuan to develop intelligent technologies that combine artificial intelligence and automobiles, realize the comprehensive intelligentization of the entire vehicle, and win the right to speak in the future technology. After crossing the 10 million mark, BYD will continue to uphold the engineering spirit of "dare to think, dare to do, and dare to persist", take the green dream as its mission, take technological innovation as its guide, meet people's yearning for a better life, and build a world-class high-tech enterprise.
