272: Chapter 272 When Technology Is No Longer Out of Reach
The scene went quiet for half a second.
Immediately after, the chat stream exploded.
"Damn, this looks cool!"
"This is what a two-seater Anti-gravity Vehicle should look like!"
"I was worried it would look like a flying cof... no, a flying box, but the design is actually really good!"
"Driving this thing out would definitely turn heads, right?"
"The single-seater is a flying motorcycle, but this is a flying sports car!"
Offstage, Lei Jun saw this scene, and his eyes couldn't help but light up.
Even from the perspective of the automotive industry, the design of this two-seater version is absolutely beautiful.
It didn't force an imitation of a car.
Nor was it designed to look like traditional aircraft, which often feel purely utilitarian.
It exists somewhere between a mode of transportation and a high-end tech product.
The exterior alone is enough to make many young people stop in their tracks.
The representative from BYD had a more complicated expression.
If the star wing m1 flying motorcycle could be understood as personal commuting equipment, then this two-seater cockpit vehicle has already begun to truly touch upon the realms of "family travel" and "high-end urban transportation."
This step is a more direct threat than the previous one.
Lu Li looked at the two-seater vehicle on the screen and continued the introduction:
"This is the high-performance version of the Star Wing series."
"Internal codename, star wing m1 Pro."
"It adopts a two-seater cockpit layout, equipped with a higher-power Anti-gravity Engine module, a stronger battery system, and a more complete cockpit safety structure."
"Compared to the standard urban commuting version, its advantage isn't speed."
"It's stability, comfort, and suitability for two people traveling together."
Several sets of parameters appeared on the large screen.
[star wing m1 Pro]
[Two-seater Anti-gravity Vehicle]
[Urban Commuting Range: 320 km]
[Low-speed Cruise Range: 420 km]
[Two-person Payload Mode]
[Fully Enclosed Curved Protective Canopy]
[Active Air Stabilization System]
[Dual-redundant Safety Restraint Structure]
Lu Li said:
"Its operating logic is consistent with the star wing m1."
"But the driver is no longer in a riding posture; instead, they control it while sitting in the cockpit."
"The passenger seat is also equipped with an independent safety locking system."
"In other words, it's more suitable for spouses, couples, or users who need short-distance commuting for two."
Many people at the venue immediately showed subtle expressions.
The chat stream scrolled by even faster.
"Got it, the couple's edition."
"Isn't this more romantic than sitting in the passenger seat of a sports car?"
"Who could resist being picked up in this by their girlfriend?"
"Forget about girlfriends, even my mom wants to ride in it after seeing this."
"God Lu, don't just talk, give us the price!"
Lu Li seemed to notice the direction of the chat and smiled.
"Of course, it's not cheap."
"Because its battery system, Anti-gravity Engine module, and cockpit safety structure are all one tier higher than the standard version."
"Moreover, given the limited initial production capacity, it will be prioritized for family commuting, corporate parks, special official commuting, and users in certain pilot cities."
As he said this, the star wing m1 Pro on the large screen slowly rotated once.
Every angle was displayed extremely clearly.
It really doesn't look like a traditional car.
But it doesn't make people feel weird or stifled either.
It feels more like a brand-new form of transportation that truly belongs to the low-altitude era.
Lu Li looked offstage, his tone remaining steady.
"star wing m1 Pro, High-Performance Two-seater Edition."
"Launch MSRP —"
The numbers on the large screen jumped out.
[250,000 Yuan]
There was another uproar at the venue.
Two hundred and fifty thousand.
This price is certainly not low.
But compared to its positioning, technology, and two-seater cockpit form, it seems ridiculously low.
After all, many new energy vehicles these days are already selling for over two hundred thousand or three hundred thousand.
And this thing is a real, flying two-seater Anti-gravity Vehicle.
The chat stream instantly began to flood.
"Two hundred and fifty thousand? I thought it would start at at least one million!"
"This price is actually similar to some mid-to-high-end electric cars?"
"It's over, the automotive industry is really going to be shattered."
"Isn't this more prestigious than buying a luxury car?"
The Tesla representative's face turned completely ugly.
The representative from BYD also fell silent.
The price of two hundred and fifty thousand precisely wedges into the core competitive range of mid-to-high-end new energy vehicles.
If Guanghui Technology's subsequent production capacity really ramps up, the star wing m1 Pro doesn't even need to immediately replace cars entirely; just stealing a portion of high-end commuters would be enough to cause the entire market to revalue.
Lu Li ignored the changes offstage.
He continued:
"However, the star wing m1 Pro is not today's primary featured product."
"It's more like a high-performance option provided for families and two-person commuters."
"What truly determines whether the Star Wing platform can move from being a novelty for the few to reaching more ordinary users is the standard urban commuting version."
He raised his hand, and the screen switched back to the star wing m1 Urban Commuting Version.
"Just now in the livestream, many friends have been asking about the price."
"Some also said that this thing must be a toy for the rich."
"To be honest, I can understand that."
"After all, when people see terms like Anti-gravity, flying vehicle, and urban low-altitude traffic, it's easy to feel like it's very far removed from ordinary people."
On the large screen, the appearance and core parameters of the star wing m1 Urban Commuting Version reappeared.
The venue fell silent again.
Everyone was staring at the screen.
BYD, Tesla, DJI, Lei Jun, Tencent, and Ren Zhengfei were all looking at that line of numbers about to jump out.
Because the price directly determines whether this thing is just a show of skill or something that could truly change the market.
Lu Li spoke.
"star wing m1 Urban Commuting Version."
"Launch MSRP —"
The numbers on the large screen jumped out.
[89,000 Yuan]
The venue went quiet at first.
Then, it exploded into an uproar.
Many people even thought they had misread it.
Eighty-nine thousand?
Not eight hundred and ninety thousand?
Not eight million nine hundred thousand?
But eighty-nine thousand?
The livestream chat exploded.
"??????"
"Damn, eighty-nine thousand?"
"Not eight hundred and ninety thousand?"
"Is this price for real?"
"It's cheaper than many cars!"
"Toy for the rich? This price is a slap in the face!"
"My car budget is enough to buy this?"
The corporate representatives offstage were all shocked as well.
The faces of the representatives from BYD and Tesla instantly turned even uglier.
Because this price is too dangerous.
It's not a price for an ordinary person to buy a toy on a whim.
But it has entered a range that the middle class can plan for if they grit their teeth.
More importantly, if future installment plans, corporate subsidies, and urban commuting policies follow, the possibility of its widespread adoption will be very high.
Lei Jun couldn't help but whisper:
"This kid... is truly ruthless."
Ren Zhengfei also revealed a faint smile.
This is Lu Li.
Once he decides to push something into society, he won't just make it a high and mighty luxury item.
