The bottleneck is inside and being paid away: internal limits on serving live demand, with removal already funded
The model's full reasoning — Q2 2021 call → NOWe need to determine if management conveys that the main constraint is the company's own capability, with demand pressing in and expansion underway. The transcript discusses strong revenue, intelligent mobility sales, Jinhua facility relocation completed, acquisitions, R&D for UTVs and EVs. There's mention of global shipping issues slowing sales for hoverboards, but not that demand exceeds capacity. Management mentions production capacity at Hainan is large but not in line with capacity yet, production is on initiation process. No indication of orders exceeding current capability. There is talk of expanding battery line later, but not that immediate demand is pressing. So answer NO.
