During the group interview after the launch event of the new Xiaopeng P7 on August 27th, Xiaopeng Motors Chairman He Xiaopeng was asked why he suggested Lei Jun to start a car company. He replied, "In 2017, I talked to Lei Jun and I thought Xiaomi was very suitable because Xiaomi originally had internet software genes and internet hardware genes, which are somewhat related to cars and are relatively high." Prior to this, He Xiaopeng had said, "If you want to 'trick' a friend, suggest they start a car company." He further explained, "I think it is very difficult for a new entrepreneur to start a business in the automotive field."
