Thank you Kai. Hello everyone. I will now go over some of our financial results for the first quarter of 2021. To be mindful of the length of this call I will address our financial highlights here and encourage you to refer to our earnings press release which is posted online for additional details.
謝謝凱。大家好。我現在將回顧一下我們 2021 年第一季度的一些財務業績。為了注意本次電話會議的長度,我將在這裡介紹我們的財務重點,並鼓勵您參考我們在線發布的收益新聞稿以了解更多詳細信息.
Total revenue in the first quarter of 2021 were RMB3.58 billion or USD545.7 million representing an increase of 319.8% from RMB841.7 million (sic - RMB851.7 million) in the first quarter of 2020. This included RMB3.46 billion or USD528.7 million of vehicle sales in the first quarter of 2021 representing an increase of 311.8% from the first quarter of 2020.
2021 年第一季度的總收入為人民幣 35.8 億元或 5.457 億美元,較 2020 年第一季度的人民幣 8.417 億元(原文如此 - 人民幣 8.517 億元)增長 319.8%。其中包括人民幣 34.6 億元2021 年第一季度汽車銷售額為 5.287 億美元,比 2020 年第一季度增長 311.8%。
The increase in vehicle sales was mainly attributable to the increase in vehicle deliveries with the continual expansion of our sales network. On a quarter-over-quarter basis total revenues and vehicle sales decreased 13.8% and 14.6% respectively primarily due to the seasonal factors related to the Chinese New Year holidays, as well as the localized COVID-19 outbreaks in Northern China in February 2021.
汽車銷量的增長主要是由於隨著我們銷售網絡的不斷擴張,汽車交付量有所增加。與上一季度相比,總收入和汽車銷量分別下降 13.8% 和 14.6%,這主要是由於與農曆新年假期相關的季節性因素,以及 2021 年 2 月中國北方局部爆發的 COVID-19。
Revenues from other sales and services were RMB111.5 million or USD17.0 million in the first quarter of 2021 comparing with RMB10.6 million in the first quarter of 2020 and RMB89.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2020. The increase in revenue from other sales and services over the first and fourth quarters of 2020 was mainly attributable to the increased sales of charging stalls, accessories, and services in line with higher accumulated vehicle sales.
2021 年第一季度其他銷售和服務收入為人民幣 1.115 億元或 1700 萬美元,而 2020 年第一季度為人民幣 1060 萬元,2020 年第四季度為人民幣 8920 萬元。收入增加2020 年第一季度和第四季度的其他銷售和服務收入主要歸因於充電站、配件和服務的銷售額增加,與較高的累計汽車銷量相符。
Cost of sales in the first quarter 2021 was RMB2.96 billion or USD451.6 million representing an increase of 277.6% year-over-year and a decrease of 13.5% quarter-over-quarter. Vehicle margin in the first quarter of 2021 was 15.9% comparing with 8.4% in the same quarter of 2020 and 17.1% in the fourth quarter of 2020. The increase in vehicle margins over the first quarter of 2020 was primarily attributable to lower material cost and a lower unit manufacturing overhead cost, derived from the increased production volume.
2021 年第一季度的銷售成本為人民幣 29.6 億元或 4.516 億美元,同比增長 277.6%,環比下降 13.5%。 2021 年第一季度的汽車利潤率為 15.9%,而 2020 年同期為 8.4%,2020 年第四季度為 17.1%。汽車利潤率較 2020 年第一季度增加的主要原因是較低的材料成本和較低的單位製造費用成本,源自增加的產量。
The slightly decrease in vehicle margin from the first quarter of 2020 from the fourth quarter of 2020 was primarily due to the lower average selling price cost by promotion activities launched in the first quarter of 2021, partially offset by the decreased material cost.
2020年第一季度整車利潤率較2020年第四季度略有下降,主要是由於2021年第一季度推出的促銷活動導致平均售價成本下降,部分被材料成本下降所抵消。
Gross margin in the first quarter 2021 was 17.3%, compared to 8% in the first quarter of 2020, and 17.5% in the fourth quarter of 2020, which was mainly attributable to the change of vehicle margin.
2021年第一季度毛利率為17.3%,2020年第一季度為8%,2020年第四季度為17.5%,主要是整車毛利率變化所致。
Now, operating expenses in the first quarter 2021 were RMB1.02 billion, or USD156.4 million, representing an increase of 238.6% year-over-year, and an increase of 27.5% quarter-over-quarter.
現在,2021 年第一季度的營業費用為人民幣 10.2 億元,即 1.564 億美元,同比增長 238.6%,環比增長 27.5%。
Research and development expenses in the first quarter of 2021 were RMB514.5 million, or USD78.5 million, representing an increase of 171.2% in the first quarter of 2020, and an increase of 37.5% in the fourth quarter of 2020.
2021年第一季度研發費用為人民幣5.145億元,折合7850萬美元,較2020年第一季度增長171.2%,較2020年第四季度增長37.5%。
Excluding share-based compensating expenses, non-GAAP research and development expenses, were RMB397.9 million, or USD60.7 million, representing an increase of 109.8% year-over-year and an increase of 7.8% quarter-over-quarter.
不計入股權激勵費用,非美國通用會計準則研發費用為人民幣 3.979 億元或 6070 萬美元,同比增長 109.8%,環比增長 7.8%。
The increase in research and development expenses over the first and fourth quarter of 2020 was primarily attributable to, first, increased share-based compensation expenses, derived from incremental share options granted, with higher fair value in January 2021, while no share-based compensation expenses were recognized for stock options with service conditions under performance conditions related to our IPO in the first quarter of 2020.
2020年一季度和四季度研發費用增加的主要原因是,一是股權激勵費用增加,源於2021年1月授予的增量股票期權公允價值較高,而無股權激勵在 2020 年第一季度與我們的 IPO 相關的業績條件下,為具有服務條件的股票期權確認了費用。
Second, the increased R&D activities for the Company's next vehicle models. Third, increased headcount.
第二,公司下一款車型的研發活動增加。第三,增加人員。
Selling, general administrative expenses in the first quarter of 2021 were RMB509.9 million, or USD77.8 million, representing an increase of 352% in the first quarter of 2020 and an increase of 18.8% in the fourth quarter of 2020.
2021 年第一季度銷售、一般管理費用為人民幣 5.099 億元,即 7780 萬美元,較 2020 年第一季度增長 352%,較 2020 年第四季度增長 18.8%。
Excluding share-based compensation expenses, non-GAAP selling, general and administrative expenses were RMB449.8 million, or USD68.7 million, representing an increase of 298.8% year-over-year and an increase of 5.4% quarter-over-quarter. The increase in selling, general administrative expenses over the first and fourth quarter of 2020 was primarily driven by increased marketing and promotion activities, increased headcount and rental expenses, with expansion of the Company's sales network and increased share-based compensation expenses.
不計股權激勵費用,非美國通用會計準則銷售、一般和管理費用為人民幣 4.498 億元,即 6,870 萬美元,同比增長 298.8%,環比增長 5.4% . 2020 年第一季度和第四季度銷售、一般管理費用的增加主要是由於營銷和促銷活動的增加、員工人數和租金費用的增加、公司銷售網絡的擴張以及股權激勵費用的增加。
Losses from operations in the first quarter of 2020 -- 2021 was RMB407.7 million, or USD62.2 million, representing an increase of 74.1% in the first quarter of 2020 and an increase of 416.7% in the fourth quarter of 2020.
2020-2021年第一季度經營虧損為人民幣4.077億元,即6220萬美元,較2020年第一季度增長74.1%,較2020年第四季度增長416.7%。
Excluding share-based compensation expenses, our non-GAAP loss from operations was RMB224.8 million, or USD34.3 million, representing a decrease of 4% year-over-year and an increase of 216.2% quarter-over-quarter.

Comparing with RMB77.1 million net loss in the first quarter of 2020 and RMB107.5 million net income in the fourth quarter of 2020.
剔除股權激勵費用後,我們的非美國通用會計準則運營虧損為人民幣 2.248 億元,即 3,430 萬美元,同比下降 4%,環比增長 216.2%。 2021 年第一季度淨虧損為人民幣 3.6 億元,即 5490 萬美元。相比之下,2020 年第一季度淨虧損為人民幣 7710 萬元,2020 年第四季度淨利潤為人民幣 1.075 億元。
Non-GAAP net loss was RMB177 million, or USD27 million in the first quarter of 2021, compared with RMB253.4 million net loss in the first quarter of 2020 and RMB115.4 million net income in the fourth quarter of 2020.
2021 年第一季度非美國通用會計準則淨虧損為人民幣 1.77 億元,即 2700 萬美元,而 2020 年第一季度淨虧損為人民幣 2.534 億元,2020 年第四季度淨利潤為人民幣 1.154 億元。
Turning to our balance sheet and cash flow. Our cash and cash equivalent, restricted cash, cash deposits and the short-term investments total RMB30.36 billion or USD4.63 billion as of March 31, 2021.
轉向我們的資產負債表和現金流量。截至 2021 年 3 月 31 日,我們的現金及現金等價物、受限制現金、現金存款和短期投資總額為 303.6 億元人民幣或 46.3 億美元。

Hi, management team, thanks for taking my questions. I've got two questions. The first question, could you please update your factory capacity at the moment? Will the output of new Li ONE model suffer from greater impact for the component bottleneck? For example, like chip and chip shortage and the battery timers or any other key components? In that case, when do we expect the output of new Li ONE could get back to a more normal level?
嗨,管理團隊,感謝您提出我的問題。我有兩個問題。第一個問題,請問您現在可以更新您的工廠產能嗎?新Li ONE車型的產量會不會因為零部件瓶頸受到更大的影響?例如,像芯片和芯片短缺以及電池定時器或任何其他關鍵部件?那麼,新鋰ONE的產量什麼時候才能恢復到正常水平呢?
My second question is, how is the gross margin of the new Li ONE compared to the previous version? Will the 10,000 price hike be more than enough to offset the cost increase from the feature upgrade and raw material inflation? And the (inaudible) the second quarter gross margin.
我的第二個問題是,與舊版本相比,新的Li ONE的毛利率如何? 10,000 的價格上漲是否足以抵消功能升級和原材料價格上漲帶來的成本增加?以及(聽不清)第二季度的毛利率。

Thank you, Tim. This is Kevin. I will answer the first question.
謝謝你,蒂姆。這是凱文。我會回答第一個問題。
Of course, as we all know, we are -- the whole industry is suffering from the shortage of the semiconductor. Right now, in terms of capacity, our chargeable battery, with two shifts already are ready, we can do more than 500 per day, but of course, due to the ramp of the new Li ONE and also some of the timing issue of the chips, well, the volume cannot achieve that high. We expect, starting from September, we expect our monthly production will be more than 10,000. And I will ask Johnny to answer the gross margin.
當然,眾所周知,我們 - 整個行業都在遭受半導體短缺的困擾。現在容量上,我們的充電電池,兩班倒的已經做好了,一天可以做500多個,但是當然,由於新的Li ONE的爬坡,還有一些時間問題芯片,好吧,體積不能達到那麼高。我們預計,從 9 月開始,我們預計我們的月產量將超過 10,000 個。我會請約翰尼回答毛利率。

Hi, Tim. For the gross margin, in the long run, it's the (inaudible) is remain at the same level for the current Li ONE, with some additional hardware, as you may know, for the (inaudible) parts, and also some saving from some traditional parts, like the rear motor, and then that.
嗨,蒂姆。對於毛利率,從長遠來看,它的(聽不清)與當前的 Li ONE 保持相同水平,如您所知,一些額外的硬件用於(聽不清)部分,並且還有一些節省傳統零件,例如後置電機,然後是。
For the second quarter, I think it will be a match of April, May, with some promotion and the current Li ONE, and also with one month (inaudible) with RMB10,000 sales (inaudible). So it will be a mix.
第二季度,我覺得是4月、5月的搭配,有一些促銷和現在的李ONE,還有一個月(聽不清)10000元的銷量(聽不清)。所以這將是一個混合。

Thanks, management, for the opportunity, I have two questions. First about your store number, so you reported 52 stores by the end of 2020 and then you reported 73 stores by April and then you guided 200 stores by year end.
謝謝管理層,給我這個機會,我有兩個問題。首先關於你的店鋪數量,所以你到 2020 年底報告了 52 家商店,然後到 4 月份報告了 73 家商店,然後到年底你指導了 200 家商店。
So what that means is you have added 21 stores in the first four months of the year, but you plan to add 130 stores in the next eight months. Is that the right way to look at it? And also 130 stores in eight months is not something that we've seen before, so is there any execution risk with regard to that?
那麼這意味著您在今年前四個月增加了 21 家商店,但您計劃在接下來的八個月內增加 130 家商店。這是看待它的正確方式嗎?而且八個月開130家店不是我們以前見過的,那麼這有執行風險嗎?
Second is about pricing. Now, you've raised prices in the facelift which is obviously very different from some of your competitors, or other even manufacturers who have lowered prices over time. Does that mean that Li Auto plans to move further into the premium segment in the four product cycles? Thanks.
其次是關於定價。現在,你們在整容中提高了價格,這顯然與你們的一些競爭對手非常不同,甚至與那些隨著時間的推移而降低價格的其他製造商也大不相同。這是否意味著理想汽車計劃在四大產品週期中進一步向高端細分市場進軍?謝謝。

Okay, thank you, Fang Fei, I will answer your question. So as of today, right now, we have 75 stores and in the first quarter, because of the impact of spring festival and some areas have COVID-19 outbreaks, the pace of the opening new stores was a bit slower than our expectation.
好的,謝謝方飛,我來回答你的問題。所以截至今天,我們有 75 家門店,在第一季度,由於春節的影響和一些地區爆發了 COVID-19,新店開張的速度比我們預期的要慢一些。
However, we have been making very good progress in our site selection. In fact, right now we have another 50 stores in our pipeline actually under construction. So therefore, for the whole year, the 200 retail store target remains unchanged. We are just a little bit behind the trap, we think we'll catch up in the second half.
但是,我們在選址方面取得了很好的進展。事實上,現在我們還有另外 50 家正在建設中的商店。因此,全年 200 家零售店的目標保持不變。我們只是落後了一點點,我們認為我們會在下半場趕上。
And for the pricing strategy, the methodology we took is to price our product based on its value to the customer. Li ONE is very, very competitive and delivered a lot of value and with more feature functions we added into the new Li ONE. We think just RMB10,000 higher price is very fair and the new Li ONE will be even more competitive than its predecessor.
對於定價策略,我們採用的方法是根據產品對客戶的價值來定價我們的產品。 Li ONE 非常非常有競爭力,提供了很多價值,我們在新的 Li ONE 中添加了更多特色功能。我們認為僅高出人民幣 10,000 元的價格是非常公平的,新的 Li ONE 將比其前身更具競爭力。

So we know that Horizon should be able to give you a better exposure to the data you collect. Could you give us more details regarding your strategy to achieve this with Horizon (inaudible) and that in the longer term you will continue to use Horizon, or you will also consider some other foreign brand, this is my first question.
嗨,晚上好,管理團隊,我還有兩個問題。第一個問題是關於您的處理器的新供應商,即 Horizon。所以我們知道 Horizon 應該能夠讓您更好地了解您收集的數據。您能否向我們提供更多關於您使用 Horizon(聽不清)實現這一目標的策略的詳細信息,並且從長遠來看您將繼續使用 Horizon,或者您還會考慮其他一些外國品牌,這是我的第一個問題。
The second question is actually regarding a detailed(inaudible) of your autonomous driving, currently you already give very detailed information about (inaudible) to be launched later this year.

Yes, okay, thank you. So basically we have five criteria for SoC selection. So basically back in 2021 we chose our Journey 3 from Horizon Robotics as our SoC supplier. So the first one is the performance, of course, where we define the feature we want to achieve and the performance of the (inaudible) must meet the requirement.
是的,好的,謝謝。所以基本上我們有五個選擇 SoC 的標準。所以基本上早在 2021 年,我們就選擇了地平線的 Journey 3 作為我們的 SoC 供應商。所以第一個是性能,當然,我們定義了我們想要實現的功能,並且(聽不清)的性能必須滿足要求。
And from that perspective, Journey 3 is enough for the target. The target is level 2-plus functions, for example, (inaudible).
而從這個角度來看,征途 3 足以達到目標。例如,目標是 2 級以上的功能(聽不清)。
And then the second criteria is openness and flexibility. So for example, our previous generation we used mobile [eye] so it is not very flexible for our own intelligent developments. So from that perspective those are (inaudible) they are more open and we use our own (inaudible) there.
然後第二個標準是開放性和靈活性。例如,我們上一代使用移動 [eye],因此它對於我們自己的智能開發來說不是很靈活。因此,從這個角度來看,它們(聽不清)更加開放,我們在那裡使用我們自己的(聽不清)。
So the third criteria is about the support. We need very solid support from our supplier so that we can keep up high speed, let's say, development and also the phase of iteration. So Journey 3 is from Horizon Robotics, their headquarter is also in Beijing, so from that perspective they can provide the best service and core support locally so the interaction between departments is much more convenient.
所以第三個標準是關於支持的。我們需要來自供應商的非常堅實的支持,這樣我們才能保持高速,比方說,開發和迭代階段。所以征途3是來自地平線,他們的總部也在北京,所以從這個角度來說,他們可以在本地提供最好的服務和核心支持,部門之間的互動也更加方便。
The fourth criteria is regarding the SoC timing. So the chips actually -- every year there will be new chips available from the market, so from the timeline we SoC our 2021 Li ONE. So Journey 3 is better.
第四個標準與 SoC 時序有關。所以芯片實際上 - 每年都會有新的芯片從市場上出售,所以從時間軸來看,我們的 SoC 是我們的 2021 Li ONE。所以征途3比較好。
So the fees (inaudible) our criteria is the price. So the price, so Journey 3 can offer capable performance. At the same time, the price is affordable. So basically overall, these five criteria eventually will come (inaudible) Journey 3.
所以費用(聽不清)我們的標準是價格。這樣的價格,讓征途3能夠提供幹練的性能。同時,價格實惠。所以基本上總的來說,這五個標準最終會出現(聽不清)Journey 3。
Regarding the roadmap of our autonomy, we already mentioned in the previous description that we will right now just right away launch our in-house (inaudible) be able to (inaudible) functions with our own perception, own execution planning, execution software. And then the fourth quarter we will provide NoA because we need some time for that adaptation of HD map covering more roads and areas in China.
關於我們自主的路線圖,我們在之前的描述中已經提到,我們將立即啟動我們的內部(聽不清)能夠(聽不清)具有我們自己的感知、自己的執行計劃、執行軟件的功能。然後第四季度我們將提供NoA,因為我們需要一些時間來適應覆蓋中國更多道路和區域的高精地圖。
And then the next year they already introduced, let's say, the next generation platform on the basis of Orange and that one will provide even much more perception power and even richer to support more features. So hardware-wise we can get up to a level 4, but software-wise, of course, we need to step-by-step raise more functional (inaudible) that's the plan in general. Thank you.
然後明年他們已經推出了,比方說,基於 Orange 的下一代平台,該平台將提供更強大的感知能力,甚至更豐富以支持更多功能。因此,在硬件方面我們可以達到 4 級,但在軟件方面,當然,我們需要逐步提高更多功能(聽不清),這就是總體計劃。謝謝你。

謝謝你提出我的問題。第一個是每美元(聽不清)付款的價格,但他們實際上將價格提高了人民幣 10,000 元。我真的可以嘗試詳細說明一下,10,000 元人民幣只是(聽不清)的價格嗎?我可以解釋一下嗎?這是第一。
And number two actually I found one company called (inaudible) naturally has been involved in your R&D at level 3 (inaudible) so basically is the same product as the Li ONE 2021 version. Is this company (inaudible) in-house design and actually what's the (inaudible) in this project?
第二,實際上我發現一家名為(聽不清)的公司自然參與了你們 3 級(聽不清)的研發,所以基本上是與 Li ONE 2021 版本相同的產品。這家公司(聽不清)是內部設計嗎?實際上這個項目中的(聽不清)是什麼?

Okay, thank you, Wang Bin, I will take the first question. Actually the RMB10,000 is not specifically for early or for any new feature of the new Li ONE. As I just explained, this is overall our pricing strategy and Mr Li Xiang already stated that the safety is standard, not optional. Therefore, we make all the new ADAS solution a standard function without any charge to our customer.
好的,謝謝王斌,我來回答第一個問題。其實這10000元並不是專為新立ONE的早期或任何新功能而設的。正如我剛才解釋的,這是我們的整體定價策略,李翔先生已經說過安全是標準的,而不是可選的。因此,我們將所有新的 ADAS 解決方案作為標準功能,不向我們的客戶收取任何費用。

Yes, so regarding the role of (inaudible) is our (inaudible) tier 1 provider. So (inaudible) is mainly about product (inaudible) and also design consultation together with our team and then the final production.
是的,關於(聽不清)的角色是我們的(聽不清)一級提供商。所以(聽不清)主要是關於產品(聽不清),還與我們的團隊一起進行設計諮詢,然後是最終生產。
So as we already mentioned, actually for our ADAS team we have round about 300 people right now covering those hardware and software designs. So software-wise we already explained, it's a (inaudible) in-house software development, including the low level software like (inaudible) and also the middleware and all application software and close to (inaudible) environment completely (inaudible) actually we also design hardware parts to ensure that we have the complete transparency of the design.
因此,正如我們已經提到的,實際上對於我們的 ADAS 團隊,我們現在有大約 300 人負責這些硬件和軟件設計。所以在軟件方面我們已經解釋過,這是一個(聽不清)內部軟件開發,包括像(聽不清)這樣的低級軟件以及中間件和所有應用軟件以及完全接近(聽不清)環境(聽不清)實際上我們也設計硬件部分以確保我們具有設計的完全透明性。
So that we can react if there is something wrong with our design during the lifecycle of the product. So we are also responsible for the complete hardware design, simulation and design implementation. So including those electronics and the mechanics. (Inaudible) of (inaudible) drive. They will participate with the hardware design. Because from efficiency point of view we like leveraged the outsource resources to ensure we keep that in a very high level.
這樣,如果我們的設計在產品生命週期中出現問題,我們就可以做出反應。所以我們也負責完整的硬件設計、仿真和設計實現。所以包括那些電子和機械。 (聽不清)(聽不清)驅動器。他們將參與硬件設計。因為從效率的角度來看,我們喜歡利用外包資源來確保我們將其保持在很高的水平。
So overall they will do the coordination, the product validation and then the production which we on purpose we don't want to touch because that will lower the overall efficiency. Also that's the part actually in tier 1 could have a better efficiency compared with (inaudible). Thank you.
所以總的來說,他們將進行協調、產品驗證,然後是我們故意不想觸及的生產,因為這會降低整體效率。與(聽不清)相比,這也是實際上在第 1 層中的部分可能具有更高的效率。謝謝你。

Yes, hi, thanks for taking my question. Two questions. The first one is do you have switch from mobile IQ4 to this Journey 3 and you are going to switch to (inaudible) next year. How do you see the data format of all these three systems? Can you freely use the data connected in the previous system and to use now and further develop for the future either function or is it (inaudible) transition.

The second question is regarding your BEV plan for (inaudible). You mentioned the Whale and the Shark platform. How do you think after seeing the Shanghai Auto Show with so many new BEV models. Will this change (inaudible) of your timeline, your roadmap? Would you accelerate the process a little bit in view in view of the rising competition in the market? Thank you.

Kai Wang - CTO
Okay, maybe I take the first question. So regarding different platforms. So actually that's the reason why we would like to do the in-house design. So when you have control, the algorithm developments there are cores of algorithms. Basically we utilize the same (inaudible). So when we're developing something and then you can really base on different hardware and make a kind of a [wrap] of software. Then you can support different containers basically. That's our idea behind.
好吧,也許我回答第一個問題。所以關於不同的平台。所以實際上這就是我們想要進行內部設計的原因。因此,當您擁有控制權時,算法的開發就會成為算法的核心。基本上我們使用相同的(聽不清)。因此,當我們開發某些東西時,您可以真正基於不同的硬件並製作一種[包裝]軟件。那麼基本上就可以支持不同的容器了。這就是我們的想法。
From compatibility point of view there are really lots of common area you can re-use. Also on top of that. So you can see the current developments we do have age part and also the cloud part. The cloud part we utilize mass computing power for training. So both Journey 3 platform and (inaudible) platform we have the same [OM] solution behind for training.
從兼容性的角度來看,確實有很多公共區域可以重複使用。也是最重要的。所以你可以看到我們目前的發展確實有年齡部分和雲部分。雲部分我們利用海量計算能力進行訓練。因此,Journey 3 平台和(聽不清)平台背後都有相同的 [OM] 解決方案用於培訓。
So you can see right away there are already a bunch of common stuff you can share. So then we don't have any problem. Of course if you support more then you need let's say more effort for adaptation between platforms. So we will lower that of course then there is smart selection as we mentioned. That's the reason why we have a very strict criteria for associated action. Thank you.
所以您可以立即看到已經有很多可以共享的常用內容。那麼我們沒有任何問題。當然,如果您支持更多,那麼您需要為平台之間的適配付出更多努力。所以我們當然會降低它,然後我們提到了智能選擇。這就是為什麼我們對相關行動有非常嚴格的標準的原因。謝謝你。

Yes, Paul, this is Kevin let me take your second question. Of course we all see a lot of new car models launched in Shanghai Auto Show. However, as we reiterated many times that we think a charging solution is the key competitive niche advantage we need to gain to compete in the BEV arena. Therefore we will stay on our track to develop our Shark and Whale platforms with ultrafast charging capability.
是的,保羅,我是凱文,我來回答你的第二個問題。當然我們都看到上海車展上推出了很多新車型。然而,正如我們多次重申的那樣,我們認為充電解決方案是我們在 BEV 領域競爭所需的關鍵競爭優勢。因此,我們將堅持不懈地開發具有超快充電能力的 Shark 和 Whale 平台。
We think that's the key to winning the future competition. Yes, so therefore we will not alter our plan. Yes, we will stay very focused. Of course with more resources we of course want to accelerate the R&D process for sure. But right now the outlook is still in 2023, yes.
我們認為這是贏得未來競爭的關鍵。是的,因此我們不會改變我們的計劃。是的,我們會非常專注。當然,有了更多資源,我們當然希望加快研發過程。但現在前景仍然在 2023 年,是的。
