From May 15th to May 17th, the 18th Xuanyuan Automobile Blue Book Forum was held in Guangzhou with the theme of "Turning Point". Regarding the time for the Robotaxi to scale up, Han Xu, the founder and CEO of Wenyuan Zhixing, said it could happen within one or two years. However, Han Xu also admitted that he did not want to deliberately avoid or conceal some things. He pointed out that the "Baidu driverless car collective paralysis" incident has had an impact on the development of the entire industry, "at least slowing it down." Taking this opportunity, Han Xu called for attention to be paid to avoid the situation of "one person getting sick, all classmates taking medicine, and the entire industry taking medicine" in the development of China's driverless technology.
