With the release of Tencent's autonomous driving strategy in November this year, the three Internet giants have fully entered the field of autonomous driving. Nowadays, it is no longer a new thing for Internet companies to enter the automotive industry. Some of them have reaped the fruits, some have stagnated, and some have failed miserably. So, as the leading companies in the Internet industry, can BAT bring us different surprises? Production qualifications bring disaster to Internet car manufacturing An American named Musk made Tesla a success. Can a Chinese named Jia Yueting make Faraday Future a success? The facts have proven that it is not possible! Because according to domestic policies and regulations, to obtain the production license of automobiles, you must first have a large enough production scale, in other words, you need enough funds. Jia Yueting once estimated that LeTV would need at least 40 to 50 billion yuan of investment to make cars. This may still be an optimistic estimate, but even so, LeTV could not raise enough money, and BAT did not dare to invest so much.
LeEco's failure in car manufacturing has also caused other Internet car manufacturing companies to stagnate. BAT also knows that with their current strength, they are still far from enough to build cars. Since Internet companies cannot derive a host factory, it is a very wise choice to find another way to enter the field of autonomous driving and become one of the suppliers of in-vehicle interconnection systems for the host factory. First of all, the government has thrown an olive branch to autonomous driving. Just a few days ago, Beijing issued a new policy on autonomous driving. In the future, the traffic management department will launch test roads that can be used for autonomous driving. With the improvement of supporting policies, autonomous driving cars are getting closer and closer to our real life.
BAT's pioneering work in the field of autonomous driving, coupled with the support of domestic policies, has pointed the way for Internet companies to enter the automotive industry and also allowed us to see the future of autonomous driving in China. If BAT can achieve great success in the field of autonomous driving, the biggest beneficiary automakers will be domestic brands. They can use BAT's research and development results in China to equip various models with autonomous driving, which is both convenient and cost-effective.
