Recently, automotive industry commentator and journalist Li Anding commented on the "electric vehicles replacing fuel vehicles" viewpoint on Weibo, describing it as "a deliberate move by clever people." He stated their objectives are threefold: first, to brainwash the general public, reinforcing the perception that pure electric is the future, thereby comprehensively blocking consumers' choice of fuel vehicles; second, to send a strong signal of a positive future for the pure electric industry to the capital markets through radical and confident statements, aiming to secure more financial investment; third, to grab attention through public opinion, increasing traffic and visibility for individuals and brands.

However, he believes that currently, due to low battery energy density, electric vehicles struggle to compete comprehensively with fuel vehicles. Despite rapid development driven by capital, their sales volume still lags behind fuel vehicles, making a complete victory uncertain.

In response, Great Wall Motor Company Limited Chairman Wei Jianjun reposted Li Anding's Weibo on January 5th, stating: Mr. Li Anding's analysis demonstrates high strategic vision and foresight; it is very insightful and worth listening to. While the industry fiercely debates "who will replace whom," what users actually want is "who can better satisfy me" and a reliable solution: commuting to work, long-distance travel, hauling goods, or mountain driving... Because the usage scenarios are entirely different, we are developing pure electric, hybrid, fuel, and hydrogen energy technologies. The reasoning is simple: each technology has its most suitable application scenario, and our mission is to meet the needs of every single user.
