313 for a different style
A few days later, four other companies agreed to the lab's terms. Chen Xu personally came forward and signed contracts with these five companies.
This is also the first time he walked to the front desk, and the signing day was quite low-key, without reporters, and it was done quietly.
The second one who agreed to sign the contract is the No. 1 brand in the domestic battery industry, and at the same time, it is also the No. 1 in the world.
The signing representative was a middle-aged man in his forties, and when he shook hands with Chen Xu after signing the contract, he said with some regret, "You gave up the plan we proposed, can you tell me the reason?" ”
Previously, the company privately contacted Secretary Jin and proposed another cooperation plan, they wanted an exclusive authorization, for which they could pay six billion, and even said that they could talk about it again.
This plan was rejected by Chen Xu.
Chen Xu withdrew his hand and said, "One big company is not conducive to the healthy development of this industry, and it is also easy to give some people abroad a mouthful." Don't forget, many countries have antitrust laws. ”
More importantly, it is not in his own interests.
Without competitors, relying on monopoly, you can make money lying down, and after a long time, the whole company will lose its enterprising spirit, and even for its own interests, it will suppress new emerging companies and suppress the emergence of new technologies.
He would never allow that to happen.
"It's enough market to feed six or seven companies."
The battery market is large enough that the kinetic energy batteries used in electric vehicles alone are enough to feed several companies. Not to mention the batteries of consumer electronics such as mobile phones and laptops.
Even the smallest industrial energy storage battery in the market is more than enough to feed one company.
In order to ensure competition, he will also give two foreign places.
From now on, the seven companies selected by him will stand at the top of the industry. This is the advantage of occupying the upstream of the industry, and all companies in this industry have to be called Dad.
It will take some time for the new battery to really be launched on the market. After all, a new production line is not something that can be built in a day or two. Moreover, in order to maintain the competitiveness of their products, several companies will definitely increase their investment in scientific research.
The battery model provided by Chen Xu is relatively casual, and there is still a lot of potential to be tapped, and theoretically speaking, the energy capacity can be increased by about double.
The middle-aged man exclaimed, "Mr. Chen is young, and this big mind is really admirable." I hope there will be opportunities for cooperation in the future. ”
Chen Xu didn't care whether he was talking about the scene or not, he took it all and said with a smile, "There will be." ”
The middle-aged man asked again, "I don't know what kind of topic your company will study in the future?" ”
Chen Xu didn't have the idea of hiding it, and said, "Lithium-sulfur batteries." ”
Lithium metal batteries are all out, will lithium-sulfur batteries be far away?
Theoretically, the energy capacity of lithium-sulfur batteries is more than ten times that of current lithium-ion batteries. It is more than four times higher than the battery that Chen Xu made now.
The premise of the realization of lithium-sulfur battery is to solve the problem of lithium dendrite, because it also uses lithium metal as the negative electrode.
The middle-aged man was not surprised, and said with a smile, "Then I wish you all the best as soon as possible." ”
"That's a good word for you." Chen Xu said with a smile.
He can come up with a full-fledged product at any time now, but that doesn't do anyone any good.
Five companies that have just spent so much money on a patent license will feel cheated. It's purely to offend people, no matter what, they can be regarded as their partners, and they can't be tricked like this and lose their character.
Of course, we can't wait too long, don't underestimate the scientific research strength of the world, when the news of the lithium dendrite problem has been overcome, scientific research institutions in various countries will definitely increase research on lithium-sulfur batteries. If someone else makes it first, the loss of money is a trivial matter, and the key is that it will affect his industry status.
Chen Xu decided to give them four years, four years, which was enough for them to make a good profit. When the time comes, a new generation of lithium-sulfur batteries will be replaced.
…………
The money soon reached the company's account, and after paying the taxes, there were still 4.5 billion left. Chen Xuxin's professional finance hired had previously provided him with several tax avoidance schemes, and he affirmed the work of finance, but did not adopt them.
At his level, 500 million more and 500 million less make little difference to him, so why bother thinking about how to avoid taxes. Of course, he will not pretend to refuse the preferential treatment he should enjoy. Pay as much as you have due.
The next day.
Chen Xu sat on the newly bought Maybach and came to the door of Luo Xiyun's company.
Luo Xiyun came out to open a company by himself and rented an office in an office building near Wanhua Company. The driver got out of the car and pulled the door and he got out of the car.
Chen Xu wore a red striped suit, sunglasses, and a pair of brown pointy shoes today, and walked straight into the building.
Secretary Kim followed behind him with a briefcase.
After entering the elevator, there were only two of them, Chen Xu took off his glasses and said, "It's a pity, if you bring a few bodyguards, it will be more magnificent." ”
Secretary Jin felt that during this time, the boss had changed too much, and compared with before, it seemed like a completely different person. He would never have been so flamboyant before.
But think about it, the boss really got rich overnight this time, and wealth can make people crazy, which is 4.5 billion. It's not surprising that anything will become.
She thought to herself, and her mouth responded, "Do you need to recruit a few bodyguards?" ”
"Forget it, I don't want to be followed everywhere. You can contact the bodyguard company, and if necessary, arrange in advance to hire some temporary bodyguards. Chen Xu said.
Bite.
As he spoke, the floor arrived.
Yunxu Audiovisual Equipment Co., Ltd.
Chen Xu was very satisfied when he saw the name of the company. This represents an unusual meaning.
This is his first time at Luo Xiyun's new company.
After talking to the front desk, the two entered the company.
Inside is a large office, and a dozen employees are busy in front of the computer, all young. The working atmosphere looks good.
Secretary Guo got the news and greeted him, and when he saw Chen Xu, he was slightly stunned.
"Secretary Guo, it's been a long time." Chen Xu greeted warmly.
Secretary Guo is willing to follow Luo Xiyun out to start a business, which can be called her real descendant.
Chen ...... Mr. Chen. When Secretary Guo spoke, he stumbled, "That, Mr. Luo is waiting for you inside." Before she knew it, she was using honorifics.
"Okay." Chen Xu took Secretary Jin and walked into Luo Xiyun's office.
"What are you going to do......" Luo Xiyun was reading a document, and as he said, he looked up and was stunned for a moment, "Why are you dressed like this?" ”
Chen Xu turned around and said, "How is it, it looks good, right?" ”
Luo Xiyun put down the document in his hand, looked at it, nodded, and said, "I didn't expect it, it's quite suitable for you." ”
After talking about the clothes, she asked about the matter, "Is there anything wrong with looking for me at this time?" ”
Chen Xu said, "I want to invite you to come back to my hometown with me." ”
Luo Xiyun said, "You spare me, I really can't leave now." ”
Chen Xu said, "The work is inexhaustible, you work so hard, I feel distressed." Well, when you come back from your hometown, I'll come over and help you for a few days. ”
Luo Xiyun shook his head and said, "I can handle it myself." ”
Chen Xu walked over, squatted next to the chair, held her hand, looked into her eyes, and said, "If you want to do your own business, I support you." However, the premise is to combine work and rest, and in the past few decades of life, I want to set aside more time to be with you. ”
Luo Xiyun grabbed his hand and said, "Then I'll arrange it first." ”
