Chapter 753: The Wonderful BYD

BYD has always been a relatively strange existence in the Daqian system, because BYD is about the most neglected subsidiary in the Daqian system.

The reason for the creation of BYD back then, it is a bit ridiculous to say, is that Boss Jia felt the incompetence of domestic batteries, so he made up his mind to create a high-performance battery that belongs to Huaxia and make Huaxia's battery the first in the world.

In the previous life, this goal has actually been achieved by BYD, with the release of their blade battery in 2019, BYD has stood at the top of the world in the field of commercial batteries, to put it mildly, there is no company in the world that can compete with BYD in the battery.

Therefore, when Boss Jia planned to build a battery company, he naturally chose the name BYD, naturally hoping to achieve BYD's achievements in the battery field in the future in advance.

In fact, Boss Jia has always attached great importance to BYD, otherwise he would not have spent nearly 30 million yuan to buy back all the shares of BYD after establishing a joint venture with other battery brands, so that BYD would become a subsidiary of Daqian's exclusive holding.

However, BYD people don't see it that way, in the eyes of BYD people, BYD is the most disdainful child of Daqian.

First of all, BYD is located in Dongguang Province, no longer Xijiang Province, and has become the only enterprise in the Daqian system to locate its headquarters in Dongguang Province.

Secondly, Daqian's enterprises can get Daqian's comprehensive support, but BYD Battery in addition to the production of four-wheel drive vehicle batteries for Daqian, the rest of the batteries Daqian does not buy, all purchase batteries from other foreign companies.

In fact, in Daqian's product line, there are many places where batteries are needed, such as the batteries needed by Pokemon, the standby batteries needed in VCDs, the batteries needed by Xiaobawang, etc., Daqian spends more than 300 million yuan on buying batteries every year, and he is a big guy in the battery circle.

But Daqian clearly owns the subsidiary of BYD battery, but almost all of the 300 million yuan procurement fell on foreign companies, and the president of BYD also protested to Boss Jia, saying that this is unreasonable.

As a result, Boss Jia put the Sony battery and BYD's own charging together, installed it on the same four-wheel drive car, and then pressed the switch.

As a result, the Sony battery lasted for two hours, but the BYD battery ran out of power after 40 minutes.

"Daqian is an international enterprise, product quality must not be relaxed, if we can use domestic places, we have no reason not to use our own batteries. But the performance gap is so big, I can't ruin Daqian's reputation! After Boss Jia said this, the boss of BYD had no face to stay on the spot, and rushed back to Dongguang Province overnight, and after a few days, he submitted his resignation and took the initiative to resign.

And this also makes BYD a complete joke in the domestic battery circle, and it is extremely embarrassing to be disgusted by its parent company like this.

This led to BYD's battery sales for the domestic market are very pitiful, 94 years a whole year actually produced a loss of 100 million yuan, BYD of course thinks that he is not Daqian's own son.

But what makes BYD people puzzled is that although Daqian seems to dislike BYD very much, he has never hesitated to allocate funds to BYD, and there are one or two hundred million yuan allocated every year, and these expenses are all named to be spent on scientific research, making BYD battery the worst battery sales in the country, but the most adequate scientific research funds.

This made BYD people feel confused again.

What BYD people didn't expect was that at this port for the upcoming New Year, when all the company personnel were ready to take a holiday, Boss Jia appeared in the company like a divine soldier, and instantly appeared in the company, which frightened the CEO of BYD.

"Chairman, why are you here?" The boss wiped the beads of sweat from his head and asked with a smile.

This boss was originally a vice president of Camel Battery, after the resignation of the original boss, he was poached by headhunters, Boss Jia reviewed his resume and found that there was no problem, he was a professional, so he let him take over as the new boss of BYD.

"I'm here to see how your production is, this is my business, of course I'm going to inspect it!" Boss Jia said lightly.

"Yes, I'll take you to the workshop!" The boss hurriedly said.

"No need!" Boss Jia shook his head, and then said, "Your production workshop is nothing to look at, you can just take me to the R&D center, I want to see how your R&D results have been in the past three years!" ”

"Yes!" The boss wiped the beads of sweat on his head, and then took Boss Jia to the R&D center.

At this time, the R&D center is very lively, there are many researchers in it, and it is estimated that there are no less than 200 people who can be seen with the naked eye.

"It seems that BYD is still very dedicated to scientific research, and it has lived up to my scientific research funds!" Boss Jia said this in his mouth, but his brows tightened. "It's just that I don't understand, why these scientific researchers, all of them are wearing colorful clothes, don't they wear white coats when they go to work?"

"That's the case, isn't it almost the New Year, so the R&D task has entered the sweeping stage, and many people are ready to go home for the New Year, so the management is a little lax, and all of us must wear work clothes to work before, without any problems!" The boss hurriedly explained.

"Oh!" Boss Jia didn't speak, just walked around the entire research institute, and then said, "Call all the researchers to me, and I'll talk to everyone!" ”

"Yes!" As soon as the boss gave the order, these researchers gradually surrounded them, and Boss Jia glanced at these researchers, and his eyes became even more strange.

"Who are your leaders? The leader of the R&D team at any time? Boss Jia asked, and then more than a dozen people stood up one after another, half of them didn't even wear white coats, looking at Boss Jia's gaze, they were also a little scared.

"Don't be nervous, everyone, I'm here to check BYD's progress in research and development!" Boss Jia smiled, and then said, "Can any of you tell me how BYD's research on batteries is now?" ”

Boss Jia's question was asked, but after waiting for more than 10 seconds, no one was willing to take the initiative to answer, and in the end, the boss couldn't open it, and said by name, "Professor He, tell the chairman about it!" ”

"Good!" A bald old man walked out, lowered his head and said, "At the request of the head office, our main research and development direction is rechargeable batteries, and the current mainstream rechargeable batteries have the following types. ”

"They are nickel-cadmium batteries, nickel-metal hydride batteries, lithium-ion batteries, lead-acid batteries, and lithium iron batteries!"

"Among them, nickel-cadmium batteries have a memory effect and small capacity, which is not suitable for the future development of rechargeable batteries."

"Therefore, the mainstream development in the future should be nickel-metal hydride batteries, lithium-ion batteries, and lead-acid batteries!"

"In fact, the most practical should be the lead-acid battery, which is now commonly used in all cars and motorcycles, but the first battery is too large and not suitable for future development, so our main R&D forces are invested in nickel-metal hydride batteries and lithium-ion batteries!"

What Professor He said is the Tao, which sounds very reliable, but in fact, these are all clichΓ©s, and anyone who has just entered the battery industry can say the same thing.

"So what's the progress of your R&D?" Boss Jia asked.

"Our nickel-metal hydride battery has been able to reach the domestic advanced level. Lithium-ion batteries are unique in China, but compared with foreign countries, there are some gaps! Professor He said.

"How much worse?" Boss Jia asked further.

"That's about that much!" Professor He actually used his ten fingers and thumbs to compare a distance to explain the gap to the boss.

"How much is that!" Boss Jia asked further.

"It's not easy to quantify, it's not easy to quant......ify," Professor He was about to cry.

"It's not easy to quantify, then I'll quantify it for you!" Boss Jia snapped his fingers, and the secretary took out a four-wheel drive car.

"This is the four-wheel drive vehicle that did the experiment two years ago when your boss came to report to me, and the lithium-ion rechargeable battery at that time ran for a total of 40 minutes, while Sony's battery ran for two hours."

"I'm going to take this car out to you again today to see how our latest product works!" After Boss Jia finished speaking, he stretched out a hand to Professor He and said, "Professor He, take out our best lithium-ion rechargeable battery now!" ”

"Yes!" Professor He went to the laboratory to get the battery with trembling steps, but at this moment, a person jumped out suddenly, and then said with a sneer: "No need to take it, Chairman, let me tell you, our strongest battery now is the battery of two years ago, there is no change, and the interest is less than 40 minutes away because of cutting corners!" ”
