Sanyan Technology Summary

Yu Chengdong: As long as you are an honest and upright person, you will know that the Wenjie is a good car as soon as you drive it.

Today, Wenjie Auto held a ceremony to celebrate the 400,000th new AITO Wenjie car rolling off the assembly line and the 70,000th M9 delivery. Yu Chengdong, Chairman of Huawei's Automotive BU, personally delivered the car to the 70,000th Wenjie M9 owner at the event.

Yu Chengdong said in his speech: "Don't listen to the trolls on the Internet who deliberately slander us. Go drive it yourself, let professional drivers drive it, and you will know it after you try it. Anyone who is an honest person, a person who does not lie, and a person of integrity will know that the Wenjie is a good car once they drive it."

In addition, Yu Chengdong also said that some people say that the QX is the safest car, and he thinks it is well deserved. There was an incident in history where someone slandered the QX, and then the safety of the QX was retaliated against, and the QX M5, M7, and M9 became the safest SUVs in the world, without a doubt.

Yu Chengdong said that the use of a large amount of ultra-high-strength steel, submarine-grade structure, and aluminum alloy vehicle body design has made the passive safety of the WJ reach the best level in the industry. At the same time, the WJ has the strongest active safety capability in the industry, the strongest passive safety plus the strongest active safety, and it has absolutely achieved "those four words" in terms of safety.
