This story is like a scene from an ancient Chinese drama, where two heroes part ways due to a trivial disagreement, each returning to cultivate their martial arts skills without yielding. Honda and Nissan were supposed to merge, but when Honda suggested making Nissan a subsidiary, Nissan naturally refused, and the drama ended there. As for which company’s hybrid system is superior, it’s as if two martial arts masters are comparing their internal strength, neither willing to submit. It seems these two ‘martial arts masters’ in the car industry need to practice a bit longer before they can reconcile.
