The automobile industry is a huge market at ten-trillion-level. The traditional automobile industry is logically subject to the engine. With the rapid development of the new-energy automobile market, the automobile has entered a new stage of electrification and networking, gradually transforming from a simple transportation tool to a mobile intelligent terminal of rich functions. As what Cook, CEO of Apple, said, the vehicle in the future is a mobile phone on four wheels. In this context, the cooperation between automobile manufacturers and mobile phone enterprises has become a development trend, since their interconnection and integration are more conducive to the digital transformation for automobile enterprises. The personalized needs of the automobile industry and the transformation trend of intelligence, networking and electrification are also expected to bring a new growth momentum for mobile phone manufacturers. Such opportunity provides the cooperation basis for the two sides.
As a leading engine of 100-billion-level automobile industry built by Yibin, Kaiyi Auto, formerly a wholly-owned subsidiary of Chery Automobile Co., Ltd, was changed to be jointly held by Yibin Automobile Industry Development and Investment Co., Ltd and Chery Automobile Co., Ltd in December 2017.
