confusing debut of a seemingly competing car from the company helmed by its principal backer, the lawsuits from a supplier and a landlord who said they weren't getting paid, the work stoppage on the factory, the state officials in Nevada who said Jia didn't have as much money as he claimed (something that Jia denied in a haters - are - my - motivators statement), and the fact that leaders in that state copped to never really knowing much
about FF's financials before approving that
incentive package.
