That evening in the Warner Penthouse Suite at the Four Seasons Hotel.Abel is naturally proud.It doesn't need to be described in detail here.If you want to describe it in detail, let's wait for the Harmony Divine Beast to become a vegetarian one day.Day 2 morning.Abel held the first Internet video conference for the top management of all the companies under his control.From Alvertelli to Rana at Oasis Investments, from Zhang Xianglin to Kari Garnett at the Sun Fund, from Elizabeth Holmes at the Red Giant to the two vice presidents of Victoria's Secret, and even David Adams on a private jet heading towards New York.The network used is the encrypted signal network specially provided by Verizon Communication, and the contact software is the company's internal management software, so that the meeting is absolutely confidential, and to ensure that the image signal and various sound signals can present more than 99% perfect effect.A high-level video conference of Abel's internal enterprises.Looking at the video avatars of the executives on the screen in the computer in front of him, Abel smiled and waved to everyone: "Good morning, everyone!
”Naturally, he was greeted by everyone.I won't mention it here.Then, after everyone was a little quieter, Abel threw out the main topic of today's video conference."
Today is our first video conference.I've always had the idea of getting everybody together and having a good meeting.And then it never took place, although today it is not face-to-face.But it's no different from a face-to-face meeting, just think of it as a rehearsal for an online video in the future internal meeting of the company. ”His opening remarks were ordinary.Then the most important topic of today's video conference was directly thrown out."
There is only one thing to discuss today.That is, but what, is there value in acquiring it?
”"Please express your opinions."
After saying this, he stopped talking, but leaned back in his chair with his hands on his chest and looked at the people on the screen.Under his gaze.The two Victoria's Secret executives, who were not very familiar with each other, were nervous.Alvertelli and Lana have followed Abel the longest, so they have the most relaxed mentality.Although Elizabeth Holmes is actually next door to Abel now, she still honestly made this connection through video conference.This is also the first time she has been involved in Abel's real decision-making group.David Adams was on the plane with nothing to do, and he was now more or less the manager of the energy or oil industry that Abel had ordered him to do.After all, he is the eldest brother, and he is a rare elite of the younger generation of Tianlong people, and he has been in the oil industry for 9 years.Whether it is in terms of intelligence, identity or experience, etc., he is fully qualified.The only thing that is still lacking is probably that it is relatively young.Jang Sang-rim and Cary Garnett were the most excited, the youngest of them.Naturally, it is also the most radical and courageous of these people.Look at the executives in front of you.Abel feels that he is good at everything, but he is still lacking in high-end talents.Especially those high-end talents who have connections and reputations in the industry, there is not even one.Even Alvertelli can only be counted as half, he once served at Sequoia Capital at the level of deputy general manager, which is the most qualified one of all the talents under Abel so far.Rana is similar.Other......
The two vice presidents of Victoria's Secret, which were recently surrendered.Abel saw that their abilities were not bad, and they were very honest, and he was ready to try to use them.Cary Garnett and Zhang Xianglin are both young people, both of whom have not been out of the ivory tower of the university for a long time, and they may have the ability, but they still lack qualifications and experience.David Adams, relying on the identity of the Addams family, is very popular in the country.But in terms of ability, the bias is very serious, only in oil and popularity, and it is very accomplished in terms of connections.Elizabeth Holmes ......
I haven't taken off the big hat of the world's best female liar on my head!
Now in the business world, it is almost still the kind that everyone shouts and beats.There is still a shortage of talents!
As he waited for the crowd to speak, Abel thought to himself.And the first guy to speak is the closest and most clever Karie Garnett in this.This young blonde guy, I thought for less than a few dozen seconds before I spoke first.
“BOSS！
From the perspective of an investment manager, this year's Tesla is definitely the kind of company that will be pulled into the blacklist!
As far as I know, Tesla's filings at the end of January show that the Fremont, Palo Alto and Lathrop plants laid off a total of 1,017 jobs, but these layoffs are part of a previously announced layoff plan and are expected to represent 7% of the company's workforce.According to Tesla's latest annual report, the company had a total of 48,817 employees at the end of 2018.And at the end of 2017, that number was 53,800!
”"This downsizing is horrible!
No normal company has laid off more than 1/10 of its employees in a year!
”"To sum up, that's all there is to it.I feel that Tesla is no longer worth investing in, it is no longer worth pursuing!
You don't need to look at its stock, because if you look at Tesla's stock, you will find it even worse!
”Young people are young people, Abel looked at Cary Garnett, and his words were very fierce.After Cary Garnett finished speaking, Abel laughed and responded, "Uh-huh!
In that regard, Tesla is really bad right now.But I remember, dear Kari, you still seem to be riding in a MODELX!
I heard about this Tesla product, and you bought it when you were in California.Then when I came to work in New York, I spent thousands of dollars to send it from California.Now it seems that you love Tesla's cars, but you don't love Tesla!
”Cary Garnett shrugged in the video, "BOSS!
I just love the quietness of the tram and the sense of acceleration!
Although Tesla is very unbearable, but now in the world, the best electric car is still only Tesla......"
"Uh-huh......"
Abel nodded.This answer is quite satisfactory.What about the others?
Do you have any constructive thoughts on Elon Musk personally approaching me this time and hoping that I can invest in Tesla?
”Everyone was a little envious when they saw the boss and Cary Garnett's easy teasing.Although he was relatively calm, Zhang Xianglin, who was also a young man, immediately followed: "My opinion is similar to that of Kari.Now Musk is no longer the chairman of Tesla, and the largest shareholder of Tesla has openly declared in the media that Musk is not only unsuitable to be the chairman of Tesla, but he is now even a little incompetent as the CEO of Tesla. ”"Almost more than half of the people chose to trust Tesla because of Musk, and they also invested in Tesla.If Musk really loses the position of CEO, then Tesla's future must be very unwonderful!
”"I don't recommend investing either.""
It's my personal opinion."
Zhang Xianglin ended."
Uh-huh!"
Abel nodded and motioned to everyone: "Go on......"
Seeing that the two young men had spoken, Alvertelli felt that he could not continue to be quiet.In the face of the expansion of the boss's empire, if he continues to be so dull, his future status may be taken away by other impulsive young people.Alvertelli didn't want that.His calm third opening: "In a research note released on Monday, Royal Bank Capital Markets warned its customers that when Silicon Valley electric vehicle maker Tesla releases its fourth-quarter earnings in December, the company's performance will be weighed on by the lackluster product demand and the Model 3 delivery issues Tesla faces in markets outside the United States." ”"One of the largest brokerages in Gama lowered its forecast for Model 3 shipments in the fourth quarter from 57,000 to 52,500 units, and lowered the price target on Tesla stock by 14% from $350 to $300, which means that the capital markets of Gama Royal Bank believes that Tesla's stock price will fall by more than 20% in the next year.""
My opinion is also that Tesla is not worth investing in right now.If it had been 10 years ago, investing in Tesla would have been a good business!
”Abel nodded noncommittally.Motioning to the others: "Go on." ”After the first three people started, the two presidents of Victoria's Secret also plucked up the courage to finish their respective opinions.And then there's the thoughtful Lana Pitzei.The views of these three are almost the same as the previous three, all of them analyze the current unreliability of Tesla from various perspectives, as well as the personal plight of Tesla and Elon Musk.From 05 to the present in 2018.Elon Musk and Tesla, who have been in the limelight for more than a decade, are finally likely to encounter the biggest Waterloo ever.But that's not to say that Elon Musk and Tesla aren't good enough.On the contrary, it doesn't matter if Elon Musk or Tesla.Tesla's marketing methods, Elon Musk's means of creating a persona for himself, can be said to be the best in the entire business world that can't pick out a few examples, which is very good.Tesla and Elon Musk, the creator of Tesla, failed.Purely in the absence of technological explosion, pure electric vehicles are an industry with no future.Before the revolutionary technological progress of the battery, the pure electric environmental protection car is a false proposition.In the lifetime of an electric vehicle, 600,000 kilometers are driven, and the pollution caused by the batteries it uses can be several times more serious than the exhaust gases and pollutants emitted by a gasoline car after 600,000 kilometers of driving.Exhaust pollutants can be purified through forests, but the cost of disposing of lithium batteries is too high!
This is not the failure of Tesla alone, and this is not the failure of Elon Musk alone.This is an industrial failure.After the previous people had finished their opinions, only David Adams and Elizabeth Holmes had not yet spoken.David Adams waved his hand very dryly: "Not in his position, not in his politics."
I'm new to finance and electric cars, and I don't have much to say about Tesla. ”Abel nodded again.His eyes were on Elizabeth Holmes in the video, even though she was actually next door to where she was now.Elizabeth......
What do you have to say?
”Abel asked her."
Buy!"
Elizabeth Holmes said succinctly.This took Abel by surprise.At a time when everyone is not optimistic about Tesla, and more than 80% of investors in the outside world are unwilling to continue to invest in Tesla.Why did Elizabeth say buy it the other way around?
I saw her say, "I think when I started my business."
My company doesn't even have a real product, and it's not valued at $9 billion......
Now Tesla's products are really running on the street, although there are all kinds of defects.But it's not a Ponzi scheme, after all, most Tesla owners are still very happy with their electric cars so far.Mr.
Kari Garnett, are you still happy with your electric car?

”Cary Garnett didn't expect Elizabeth Holmes to name him.He was stunned, nodded hesitantly and said, "Very satisfied."
It's quiet, and the acceleration is very fast.You don't need to refuel, just plug it in and charge it when you get home from work every day!
I think if you exclude the range considerations, electric cars are definitely the best cars in the world. ”"Uh-huh!
Thank you for the experience, Mr.
Garnett. ”After Elizabeth finished speaking to Cary Garnett, she smiled and looked at Abel, "Look.Tesla's product power is definitely there.What is Tesla lacking now?
What is lacking is the cost of depressing, as well as the production ......
In other aspects, Tesla really has no shortage!
”"On the contrary!
After 2010, I felt that now was the best opportunity to buy Tesla!
The entire electric vehicle industry has experienced a frost period, and perhaps the industry will collapse.But maybe this is just the trough of this industry, as long as it gets through the trough period, Tesla has a little chance in the future, because of a brilliant company like Apple. ”"So......"
Abel looked at Elizabeth, "your opinion is to buy?"
Is that right?!
”"Yes."
Elizabeth said."
Okay.This concludes the meeting.Let's all go about our business!
”Abel simply ended the video conference, "Elizabeth, come to my office in 10 minutes!"
”Then he turned off the computer.With his eyes open and looking at the smoke of fate floating in the air in front of him, this is the reason why Abel ended this video conference so quickly.Once again, the smoke of fate jumped out.While everyone was discussing whether Tesla was worth investing in, it popped up out of nowhere.
