According to Geely group's spokesman, in order to demonstrate Geely's R&D and manufacturing competency to the world, Geely decided to facelift its concept model - Geely GE, and collect ideas and suggestions all over the world.
Geely GE debuted at 2009 Shanghai Auto Show days ago called forth sharp criticism and applause alongside. This time Geely show its confidence by collecting ideas and suggestions on its top model publicly.
This news reminds me Geely's logo collecting event which provided 3.6 million RMB reward on 1st Jan 2007.
Is Geely going to run a Open Source Auto Design project? No, Geely will not do that. But Geely GE's design collecting could be a semi-open-source system: Geely provides GE's demension, global designers work out their own drawings based on that, then Geely Group produce its new generation GE from the best one of those designs.
Let's check out what Geely will achieve later, and I hope the next GE model can be shown at 2010 Beijing Auto Show.

Dongfeng Motor started to produce sedan since the establishment of its joint-venture with Citroen 17 years ago. This year it brings its concept car - I car - in Shanghai auto show.
The inspiration comes from a famous Chinese painter Han Meilin who named his book as a "sealed book" which is a collection of unknown symbols.
Those unknown symbols, they integrated in the design of I car, will waken the curiosity of drivers and lead them into unknown fields.
Anyway, this car is full of cool elements, just take a look at these photos below.

Some websites describe Geely Excellence - GE - as a Rolls-Royce rip-off from China or Perfect Rolls-Royce Phantom Clone, let's listen what's Li Shufu's opinion on his own car: Geely Excellence is much safer than Rolls-Royce, and it will be sold at price 100 Million Yuan (about 146340 U.S. dollars)
It's much safter than Rolls-Royce, How is that possible? The MBH makes it come ture!
Geely Auto is one of the biggest shareholders of MBH (about 23% shares), while MBH is the main maker of Rolls-Royce Body Part and other parts. So there is no barrier for Geely to produce a Rolls-Royce Chinese version, Geely can make it much safer.
Li Shufu, the founder of Geely Auto, said "Car is a big sofa with 4 wheels" when he was walking into Auto industry. Now he achieves what he said years ago, just take a look at the solo imperatorial sofa in the rear part. So stop repeating "copycat", "clone" or "rip-off", respect him as a powerful global competitor.
