What does the above mean?

Gao Yuan smiled and said calmly to Mr. Zhu: "You are in the system, and you still don't understand the above meaning, and it is even more impossible for me as a businessman to know." ”

"Although I have been in Beijing twice in the past half month, I don't even know the names and identities of most of the people in the conference room just to explain the situation."

Gao Yuan said while recalling the conference room like a university ladder classroom, Wu Dongming, Ding Songlin, and other people who were more familiar with Gao Yuan were in the front row, and the people in the back rows were not able to see clearly due to the dim lighting, but they could faintly feel that their aura was very powerful.

Mr. Zhu bowed slightly, and said with a smile: "Since this is the case, then I won't embarrass you, but I think the national team will definitely make a move this time, but the strength of the shot is not yet known." ”

Gao Yuan looked at Mr. Zhu curiously, "Oh, why are you so sure?" ”

Mr. Zhu said: "You killed the first group, but now, half a month has passed, but you are unharmed, and the violence department has not even called you, this is the best evidence!" It shows that the above acquiesced in your actions! ”

Gao Yuan didn't say anything, he was not a fool, he consulted the military before he started, and Wu Dongming was in the high wall, so he made a ruthless move.

From the current point of view, the effect is still very good, Shangqi, Liuqi, Guangqi and other large groups have coincidentally accelerated the speed of solid-state battery products on the market, but in the anxious plateau, they are not fast enough.

As the so-called soldiers are fast, the delay of the Huaxia Automobile Corps has left too much time for competitors to prepare for counterattacks.

Not long after Mr. Zhu's phone hung up, BYD's boss Wang also called.

Among all the partners of the plateau, Boss Wang is undoubtedly the most anxious, because BYD is not only a member of the Huaxia Automobile Alliance, but also an important member of the battery alliance, and has been completely tied to the Kunlun company's chariot.

Boss Wang brought the news that battery inventory continued to increase, and the upstream industrial chain actively expanded production, exceeding the speed of the downstream automobile industry, so there were some problems in supply chain coordination.

"Don't stop, continue to expand." Gao Yuan said categorically to Boss Wang.

"But the warehouse is running out of place." Boss Wang was a little frustrated: "The price of lithium carbonate has risen from 40,000 yuan per ton in 2014 to 500,000 yuan per ton now!" The current inventory value of the battery alliance has exceeded 10 billion yuan, and if it continues like this, our liquidity will not be able to hold it. ”

Gao Yuan frowned and said: "Hey, lithium carbonate is really difficult to do, without lithium carbonate, we can't make high-performance lithium batteries, and lithium ore resources need to be imported in large quantities, Chile Atacama, Argentina Umbre Murto, North American Silver Peak, plus Congo and Australia's lithium mines, accounting for almost half of our total consumption." ”

"The top six in China, Tianqi, Ganfeng, Zhonghe, Yabao, Yahua, Guoli, although they are also desperately expanding production, but the speed is far from catching up with our consumption, so there is no choice, we can only import a large number of lithium ore, and a large number of imports will be constrained by Western mining groups, and there is no way to reduce prices."

Boss Wang nodded, "It turns out that you have already investigated, it is good to understand our difficulties, why don't you slow down the pace for the time being?" With so many batteries piled up in the warehouse, it's not a solution. ”

Gao Yuan shook his head, "Absolutely not, difficulties will always pass, but time never waits for anyone." ”

"In this way, you count the flow of the battery alliance and give it to Cao Feiyu, I will help you solve part of the funds, rest assured, this part of the short-term loan does not need to pay interest, you just need to make sure that you make every effort to expand production."

"Batteries are like bullets, and before war comes, you have to have enough ammunition."

Boss Wang was stunned, "That's okay, just do as you say." ”

……

In late November, a piece of news came out of China that quickly shocked the whole world.

Kunlun company will hold a new product launch conference on December 2.

"I'll go! Boss Gao is finally going to make a move! ”

"Why do you need it?"

"It's very simple, because December 1 is the press conference of the Western Automobile Alliance, and according to the grapevine, they are ready to launch a Christmas promotion at the end of the year."

"Boss Gao released a new product on the second day of the Western Automobile Alliance press conference, which is obviously-for-tat."

"The Great East-West Showdown! I'm really looking forward to it! ”

"It is said that the West is ready to sacrifice a cost-effective killer and cut off the back road of solid-state battery vehicles."

"If it weren't for Kunlun, the auto giants wouldn't have touched the cost-effective thing at all, and they would have been forced to cut prices."

"The wool is out of the sheep, the news says that the price of fuel vehicles is reduced, but the price of parts and services is secretly rising."

"Even so, the price of a gasoline car is low, right?"

"There is no way, the high price of carbon nanotubes and lithium carbonate has driven up the cost of solid-state battery vehicles."

"Upstairs, the price of lithium carbonate has increased more than ten times in recent years!"

"It's strange, why can fuel vehicles keep the price so low?"

"That's because they made too much money before, you don't think that a B-class car with 200,000 yuan costs 200,000 yuan, right?"

"Thank God for half the cost, look at the financial reports of Toyota and Volkswagen, it's a lot of money."

"The truth is that due to the emergence of solid-state battery vehicles, traditional fuel vehicles have felt great pressure to survive, so they have returned to their original value."

"From the perspective of cost, fuel vehicles are lower than electric vehicles, and it is normal to sell cheaply."

"I am from BYD factory, and sixty percent of the cost of electric vehicles is in the battery, whether it is solid-state carbon nanotubes or lithium carbonate anodes, the price is too expensive."

"It would be nice if the price of lithium carbonate could be lowered, 500,000 yuan per ton, which is really outrageous."

"Less dreaming, it's good if the price doesn't rise, after all, we don't have lithium mines, and we need to import them."

"If it weren't for the fact that Chinese companies had bought a large number of lithium mines in Australia and Congo before, with the urine of Western mining giants, I am afraid that they would have jointly raised prices long ago."

Netizens are talking about it, looking forward to the peak showdown between China and the West, the two camps.

As for the outcome of the situation, it is still difficult to predict, but everyone feels very tricky about the price of solid-state battery technology.

The price of lithium carbonate has reached 500,000 yuan per tonne and is still rising steadily.

Assuming that an average of 100 kilograms of lithium carbonate is used on each electric vehicle, the cost of this part will be 50,000 yuan, and the price of solid-state carbon nanotubes is not cheap, so the cost of battery modules remains high.

So far, the cost of battery modules for small cars using solid-state batteries is 80,000 yuan, 150,000 yuan for medium-sized cars, 250,000 yuan for large cars, 300,000 yuan for 11 commercial vehicles, 300,000 yuan for light trucks, 500,000 yuan for heavy trucks, and even millions of yuan for battery modules to be installed to ensure long-distance endurance.

It is not difficult to see that although electric vehicles are cheap to use, costing only a few cents per kilometer, consumers must first come up with more than twice the price of fuel vehicles and buy electric vehicles home.

As for reducing the number of batteries, it is also undesirable, the original selling point of solid-state batteries is the ultra-long battery life of more than 2,000 kilometers, alleviating people's range anxiety, otherwise what is the difference between using ternary lithium batteries and old-fashioned electric vehicles?

All in all, under the enthusiastic expectation of the people who eat melons all over the world, the time soon came to December 1, and the West took the lead.

Traditional fuel vehicles VS new solid-state battery vehicles.

The Great War is imminent!
