On August 19th, during "Luo Yonghao's Crossroads" program, Li Xiang discussed the automotive semiconductor shortage and revealed that some suppliers had been bullying them by reassigning production lines originally allocated to Li Auto to other clients.
He also spoke about Li Auto's supply chain team, saying "Our colleagues are incredibly capable. They go to supplier sites to monitor production. If you're producing for someone else, I'll lie on your machine - either you let me die there, or you switch production back to ours. We fight like this, and such aggressive actions have indeed happened."
Li Xiang also praised his executives, acknowledging that Ma Donghui and Shen Ya'nan have managed well.
