if you were a top designer you'd secure your pension via Geely, for sure.
But way, way more importantly than those issues of mortals, you'd look Li Shufu in the eye and make sure that the hypercar project was fully secured. seeing that delivered to market is what really matters. mortgage and pension are important to the salary boys developing brake callipers for the next 911.
