Chapter 13: Price Wars

"If they can block it, they will naturally add icing on the cake to Zhilai, use their respective resources to help Zhilai resist this wave of offensive of the Huiyi Consortium, and even wait for an opportunity to fight back. ”

"If the situation is not good, Zhilai is in crisis. They can choose to take advantage of the fire and rob and let Zhilai give a larger proportion of the shares when they open financing again. ”

Xu Xiaoran calmly analyzed.

Li Yinshi said with a smile: "Foreign aid is unreliable, and although there is a high probability that most investment institutions will not put us in a desperate situation, they are not expected to have much hope." After the financing is completed, it is still up to us in the end. ”

"Pulling and beating, these people's wrists are really old-fashioned. Unexpectedly, it ushered in the encirclement and suppression of giants so soon. I thought I could have more time to develop obscenely, but now I have to be tough......" Wei Lai sighed.

As soon as the Huiyi consortium made a move, it could be seen that the level was not low.

On the one hand, it will win over the institutions that have already entered the game and divide the allies of Weilai.

At the same time, it is necessary to directly launch an offensive head-on, fight a price war, and block upstream and downstream channels, which is to overwhelm Zhilai Technology with strong capital and industry advantages.

On the other hand, it is also directly smashed out with a large amount of money, and the premium of 250% is acquired at a price of 5 billion.

If it were an ordinary person, it would be really difficult to parry under such an offensive.

But Wei Lai was not afraid at all.

All the foundations of Zhilai Technology are based on the Lingyuan Continent behind its own spatial channel.

And this thing is completely in your own hands.

Even if Zhilai Technology really collapses, and even the patents are given to the other party, the opposite side still can't make Lingyuan batteries.

But...... It's really that step, Wei Lai doesn't mess around, he just commits suicide.

Holding the resources of an entire world, and having the power to deeply change the scientific and technological progress of the entire world, but being defeated by a small local consortium?

"I can't afford to be passive anymore. I have indeed lived a little decadent these days, born out of sorrow and died in peace. Without the threat from the outside world, here on Earth, I might really be a dead man. ”

"Although I understand in my mouth and in my heart that only by cultivating can we become stronger, that is the only truth. But he always makes excuses, finds excuses, and indulges himself in games, and even cultivation is not enough to hurt his heart. ”

"I thought I had gotten a piece of financing and borrowed 2 billion to salt fish for a while, but I had long forgotten it. The earth is not the Lingyuan Continent, and the competition here is fierce. I made such a big fuss, how could a competitor give me time to have a good time? I was so smug, but I didn't know that danger was coming. ”

"The earth is not my comfort zone, and 2 billion will not last long. No matter how dangerous the Lingyuan Continent is, I can't be so cringe anymore and be self-righteous by selling a little fake Lingmi...... There must be a breakthrough, there must be a breakthrough!"

Wei Lai was silent, but his expression gradually became serious.

He was reflecting, introspecting.

After returning to Earth from the Lingyuan Continent, he has gradually adapted to his new identity and new situation. From the beginning, he coveted comfort and went with the flow to find his own path.

"I see," Weilai whispered......, "It's a tough battle, a tough battle that must be won." ”

"Now there is the Huiyi consortium, and then there will be overseas Samsung and Panasonic foreign giants. These are the challenges we must face. Only by winning against them can we truly use technology to change the whole world and win the wealth and status that belongs to us. Wei Lai exhaled softly.

The chaotic information in his mind gradually straightened out, allowing Wei Lai to have an idea.

"What is the official attitude?" Wei Lai asked Xu Xiaoran.

Xu Xiaoran's good-looking brows furrowed: "Neutral, and a little biased towards the Huiyi Consortium." ”

"Zhilai Technology's technology is very strong, but the official doesn't pay much attention to it. Because our production is too low...... There is not enough influence. On the contrary, in Lingnan, there are thousands of upstream and downstream enterprises in the battery industry and the surrounding areas, which are related to the employment of hundreds of thousands of people, the lives of millions of people, and create a large amount of tax revenue. They have more say than we do. ”

"Technological progress does not mean that it is absolutely right, to a certain extent, our very advanced technology will quickly eliminate backward production capacity, resulting in the collapse of a large number of related enterprises. ”

"Another important point is that the new factory we built is automated, intelligent and unmanned. As a result, the more we lead, the fewer jobs we create. ”

"However, we don't have to worry too much about the government going to the opposite side. New energy vehicles are the direction of strong support from national policies, and battery prices have been high in the past two years because of sufficient subsidies. We are fighting a price war, and from an official point of view, it is a good thing for the entire new energy vehicle field. ”

"In short: we don't have to worry too much about being pulled off the rails. But don't expect extra help. ”

"That's okay, it's not bad news for me. Wei Lai breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm worried that the Huiyi consortium will find an official off-market move, and the official attitude is very important for how to end this price war." The field of new energy vehicles is the market and the place to win. ”

"How's the order?" asked Wei Lai again.

"At present, we have indeed received a lot of intent orders, and when the boss is unable to determine the mass production, we have not yet released the order volume. Coupled with the reason for this price war, we do not dare to use the technical advantage to raise prices. Only a small number of orders can be placed. ”

"The current market price remains at 2 yuan/Wh. If the first version of the Lingyuan battery has a production capacity of 50,000 Wh, we can achieve the equivalent of 500,000 Wh by reverse processing to obtain ten times the output. Based on the strong advantage of our energy density, we could have obtained a high price of about 2-5 times, so as to obtain a high profit margin, and the revenue figures were very good. ”

"However, once we rejected the acquisition of the Huiyi consortium, or did not give a satisfactory reply to the other party for a long time. Then, the price war will be very fierce. I suspect that Panasonic, Samsung, and domestic giants will soon react and form an alliance. ”

"I expect the average price in the market to drop to 1 yuan per Wh very quickly. It is likely to be reduced to 0.5 yuan/Wh. At that point, our high prices will be difficult to maintain. Revenue will become ugly, we spend a lot of money on mergers and acquisitions of upstream and downstream enterprises, self-built factories, huge investment in research and development, but can not be recovered, can only form a huge loss. ”

"And one more thing don't forget...... The maturity of the convertible bond is only 1 year. According to the original plan, we should come up with a beautiful revenue data to open the second round of financing within half a year. At that time, both financing and revenue can be used to repay debts. Xu Xiaoran reminded Wei Lai:

"In the worst-case scenario, if we can't solve the problem within a year of mass production, then we will really not be able to pay off the debt and have to pay off the debt with shares. ”

Wei Lai smiled and nodded: "I know, the problem of mass production, you don't have to wait for a year." Give me half a month, and I'll leave it to me!"
