AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)09/20 Report--

Mr. Cao Dewang, the "king of automotive glass", is well known in the industry. Fuyao Glass has become the first and second largest supplier of automotive glass in China and the world, and the chairman of Cao Dewang is a philanthropist. Earlier, Cao Dewang bought an independent brand Red Flag L5 car, which cost 6 million yuan, and now Cao Dewang buys a self-branded car again.

On September 20th, BYD held the handover ceremony of Mr. Cao Dewang, Chairman of Fuyao Group, and officially delivered a BYD EV four-wheel drive high-performance flagship model with a price of 279500 yuan to Cao Dewang. At the scene of the delivery ceremony, Wang Chuanfu, chairman of BYD, personally participated in the delivery activities.

It is understood that BYD has a business relationship with Fuyao Group, and the glass of the Han EV model delivered this time is supplied by Fuyao Group.

Mr. Cao Dewang has no shortage of luxury cars, and perhaps he bought a new energy car out of a business partnership with BYD, which, in Cao Dewang's words, is "supportive"; or Cao Dewang wants to experience driving a new energy car. Cao Dewang said in an interview that he did not buy a new energy car.

As we all know, Cao Dewang, the "auto glass king", is the first owner of Hongqi L5 limited edition customized model. On August 11, 2020, at the 12th China Automobile Blue Book Forum, Cao Dewang, chairman of Fuyao Glass Group, was asked why he bought a Red Flag L5 car.

Cao Dewang's original words are as follows: "I love cars very much. If you really say what kind of car I love, I can tell you that I have taken the Bentley borrowed by others, but I can't afford that." Then you must say, why did you buy such a good red flag? it seems to have been bought by millions. The car didn't come to my house, but it was still parked in Shanghai. Then why buy it? Because FAW Guangzhou Auto was my first user when I started the business. When Mr. Xu Liuping (chairman of FAW Group) invited me to join us, he could not go empty-handed. I bought you a car and went back like this. "

The host also asked whether Mr. Cao Dewang had an electric car, and Cao Dewang replied, "No." 'Because it's for young people, I'm not old enough to keep up with the fashion,'he explained.

Unexpectedly, more than a month later, Mr. Cao Dewang liked to mention an electric car of his own brand.

In August, 4000 BYD Han models were sold, including Han EV and Han DM versions, with a total of 5205 Han models sold from July to August, according to official figures. BYD has said earlier that it has received 30,000 orders for Han models, but there is a clear gap in terminal delivery, which has been questioned by many consumers. Zhao Changjiang, general manager of BYD Automobile sales Co., Ltd., said that production capacity increased significantly in September, and the current order is still larger than production capacity.

On July 12, the BYD Han model went on sale, including DM and EV versions, with a price range of 21.98-279500 yuan. In the EV version, the NEDC mileage of the two ultra-long-range models is 605km, and the NEDC mileage of the four-wheel drive high-performance model is 550km, both of which use BYD's self-developed lithium iron phosphate blade battery.
