Chapter 632 Scared to the Death Planning, One Factory PK All Opponents?
Nanshan Battery inspected the site selection of new factories in many places!
The news spread quickly in the industry.
The investment in the battery factory is not small, and many places are also very interested in this project.
Coupled with the allure of Nanshan Group to attract investment from all over the world, it can be said that Lincheng's phone calls have hardly been interrupted during this time.
Lin Cheng was found in various ways from all over the place.
Former colleagues, leaders, former classmates, friends, and all kinds of people are trying to let Nanshan Battery invest and build a factory somewhere.
This kind of enterprise that is related to the new energy industry and can also have a good publicity gimmick and investment scale is definitely the favorite of many cities.
Even the Imperial Capital and the Demon Capital couldn't help but extend an olive branch and wanted Nanshan Battery to build a factory with them.
"Ayang, Nanshan Battery's action this time is so big, is it really going to build three factories at the same time?"
Fang Sisi has also received several intercession calls in the past few days.
However, she did not directly ask Cao Yang, but wanted to understand the situation clearly and see if it was in the interests of Nanshan Battery to build a factory in the imperial capital, and then she would communicate with Cao Yang depending on the situation.
After all, Nanshan Group will be the baby in her womb in the future, and she doesn't want the country to be ruined.
"The company is now ready to go all out into the energy storage business and make the battery business bigger and stronger."
"The energy storage business needs a large number of batteries, and the current production capacity is no longer enough."
"In addition, the electric vehicles on the side of the future car will soon be put into production, and the demand for batteries is expected to be no small."
"So if we don't start building a new plant now, there will be a big capacity gap from next year."
The other party thinks about it, and Cao Yang naturally has nothing to hide.
Besides, the plan of Nanshan battery is about to be decided.
The site selection of each plant will also be finalized in the near future, and construction will begin.
Relevant information will be officially announced to the public soon.
"If that's the case, can we consider building a battery factory in the imperial capital?"
"It is relatively close to the northeast or northern grasslands, which can meet the business needs of energy storage business and OEMs in the north."
Since it was determined that he would invest in a few factories, there was nothing to hesitate about, so Fang Sisi said his thoughts.
It's not a bad thing to be able to get some favors outside of normal investments.
After all, people at their level, sometimes the value of favor is much higher than money.
"No problem!"
"The construction of a battery factory in the imperial capital or in the cities surrounding the imperial capital was originally within the scope of our planning."
"Since someone wants us to build it in the imperial capital, then we will build it in the imperial capital."
"When the time comes, we will build one in the imperial capital, one in the magic capital, and one in Chang'an, forming a layout of four factories in the east, west, north and south."
"In the future, if there is a need, another one will be built in central China, and the layout will be more perfect."
Cao Yang agreed without any hesitation.
By the way, he also told me about the location of the other two factories.
After the exchange between Cao Yang and Fang Sisi, Nanshan Battery's investment plan was soon formalized.
"Leader, do you want to ask Lingnan Province to come forward and communicate with Mr. Cao to see if you can put one of the factories in Yangcheng or surrounding cities?"
The three new factories built by Nanshan Battery are all outside the province.
Luo Yi knew that Liu Tianwu must have been a little disappointed.
The investment in these battery factories is quite large, and it is very promising in the future.
Each place is certainly a rarity.
"No need, Nanshan Group wants to lay out the whole country, and we can't stop this trend."
"The story behind Brilliance Auto in the Northeast is already a big lesson."
"We don't need to interfere too much."
"The headquarters of the main Nanshan Group has always been in Yangcheng, and the focus of construction is still in Yangcheng, which is enough."
Liu Tianwu took a deep breath and tried to let himself go.
The current development speed of Yangcheng is very fast in China, otherwise there is no way to counterattack and become the first economic city in China.
Now, as long as he can continue to maintain this position, Liu Tianwu will no longer pursue a single high-speed development.
Sometimes, it is very important to be able to stabilize the situation.
A Nanshan group attracts a large number of talents every year and feeds many high-income families, which is also an indirect contribution.
"Although Nanshan Group has a layout all over the country, the expansion scale of the headquarters is actually not slower than that of other provinces."
"Whether it is the chip equipment industrial park, or the automobile town, or the Nanshan robot and other business divisions, they are all developing rapidly."
"Soon the car will be mass-produced in the future, and it may be able to bring surprises to everyone at that time."
"A few battery factories, but I really don't need to care about it."
Feeling that his boss's attitude was changing, Luo Yi immediately adjusted his style of speech.
At this time, he naturally wants to work in the direction of enlightenment and persuasion.
However, Liu Tianwu was a little depressed, and some people in other places were very happy.
Of course, that's another story.
At this moment, Nanshan Group announced such a blockbuster battery construction plan, which is a very huge impact on the entire battery industry.
"The three new factories, each of which is planned to produce according to 1GWH, will be put into operation from next year, and the expansion pace of Nanshan Battery is too exaggerated."
If Lu Faxiang hadn't seen the relevant news on the official websites of Nanshan Battery and Nanshan Group, he wouldn't have believed that the plan to build this new factory was true.
Last year, the combined battery production capacity of all battery manufacturers in Huaxia was less than 3GWH.
NOW NANSHAN BATTERY IS ABOUT TO ADD 3GWH OF PRODUCTION CAPACITY.
What is this concept?
The production capacity of Nanshan Battery is larger than that of all other competitors combined!
THE KEY IS THAT NANSHAN BATTERY ALREADY HAS A PRODUCTION CAPACITY OF MORE THAN 1GWH, WHICH IS EQUIVALENT TO A PRODUCTION CAPACITY OF MORE THAN 4GWH AFTER THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE NEW FACTORY, AND OVERTIME, IT MAY EXCEED 5GWH.
This data is even higher than the total production capacity of the world's major battery manufacturers last year!
Does this mean that one factory PK all opponents?
It's a scary plan!
"I am also a little surprised that Mr. Cao has such confidence in the new energy battery industry."
Wang Fu was silent for a while, and he couldn't figure out why Nanshan Battery dared to build a new battery factory so boldly.
According to this plan, the investment in each battery factory will exceed 1 billion yuan.
This is still calculated according to the minimum standard, if it is exaggerated, it may reach 2 billion yuan.
Three factories were built at the same time......
It's insane!
Wang Fu is also completely incomprehensible!
"Although the new model of the future car will be put into production this year, the first model is said to be a 7-seat large SUV, but no matter how good the sales of electric vehicles are, they will not exceed 5,000 units in a month."
"Even 3,000 units is a very difficult figure to achieve."
"At this pace, the most we can do is build a new factory."
"Even if you add energy storage business, you don't need so much."
"And I've heard that these factories are reserving several times the amount of land they are building now for further expansion in the future."
"At that time, each plant has the potential to expand into a large factory of more than 5GWH."
"Mr. Cao's expectations for Nanshan battery are a bit high."
Lu Faxiang is still unsure of what the future development will be.
He hoped that Cao Yang's vision was accurate, but he didn't want it to be accurate.
Hope is accurate, that means the battery industry, the future is bright.
I don't want it to be accurate, that's because if Nanshan Battery bets right, then it will be very difficult for other manufacturers to surpass it.
The advantage of output is sometimes the advantage of cost, and even further becomes the advantage of technology.
Originally, the strength of Nanshan battery was very strong, and it will be stronger in the future.
How does this make other manufacturers catch up?
"I'll give Mr. Cao a call and ask if he is willing to reveal something."
A little confused about the current situation, Wang Fu felt that it was better not to guess and call Cao Yang to chat.
With his understanding of Cao Yang, as long as it is not particularly sensitive information, Cao Yang is still more willing to communicate with his peers.
It's better to act than to move.
Soon, Wang Fu picked up the HONOR 2 in his hand and dialed it for Cao Yang.
"Mr. Cao, congratulations on starting three battery factories at the same time, and we will count on you to compete with international battery giants in the battery industry in the future."
There is no point in going around with a false head, so after Wang Fu connected the phone, he went directly to the topic.
This can be regarded as a communication habit that has slowly formed between them over the years.
"Mr. Wang, I am also a little weak when you say this, this billions of investment has gone down, and there are still many uncertainties about whether the production capacity can be utilized at that time."
"New energy is definitely the direction of future development, but when this wave of craze will rise is still full of uncertainty."
"In the short term, we also hope to consume part of the capacity through the development of energy storage business."
"Otherwise, Nanshan Battery has recruited a large number of R&D technicians in recent years, and if there is no output to support and share R&D expenses, the report will be ugly."
What Cao Yang said was the truth, which made it impossible to refute.
After all, BYD battery is also a competitor of Nanshan battery, so Cao Yang will definitely not really say anything.
He is running a business, not a charity.
Wang Fu called himself this time, but he didn't mean to inquire about information.
However, his calm phone call is more comfortable than arranging people to inquire around.
After all, as long as it is a company engaged in batteries in Huaxia, it is impossible to be indifferent when you see the earth-shattering big action of Nanshan Group.
"Mr. Cao is still bold, and billions of investments are invested."
"By next year, your production capacity will be more than that of all other battery manufacturers combined."
"The development of electric vehicles is still limited to a certain extent, and consumers still have more concerns about the charging convenience and range anxiety of electric vehicles."
"I wonder if we can formally determine the standard of charging piles, and all electric vehicles will be designed according to this standard in the future."
"At the same time, is it also possible to carry out a certain standardized design of the battery to facilitate the development of the battery swap mode?"
"Once these two standards can be successfully implemented, it can greatly alleviate the problem of duplicate construction of various OEMs, and also provide great convenience to consumers."
"At the same time, it can also stimulate more capital to enter the field of electric vehicle charging piles and battery swaps, which is definitely beneficial to the development of the industry."
Wang Fu called Cao Yang, of course, he would not simply ask about the new factory.
With such a radical expansion of Nanshan Battery, Wang Fu also hopes that his new energy vehicle business can develop rapidly.
Going it alone is definitely not going to compete with traditional car giants, so he wants to pull Nanshan Group to promote the development of new energy vehicles.
They BYD can also follow a little light.
In this regard, Cao Yang actually supports it.
Let's set standards.
It is certainly whose corporate standards have the most influence that will eventually become the most likely to become industry standards.
At that time, Nanshan Group is expected to become the standard setter in this industry.
The benefits of this stealth are very great.
Even at critical moments, this right can be used against some competitors.
"The unification of charging pile standards should be relatively simple, and we can give this thing this year."
"It's been mentioned before, it's been discussed many times, and now it's just a push again."
"However, I estimate that it is difficult to achieve the unification of battery standards in one step, and I can only formulate some more general requirements first."
"After all, the size and structure of each car is different, and there is no way to design the battery to a uniform specification."
"However, there is a certain standardization in the design of battery cells, and I think it should be possible."
"At least in terms of size, it shouldn't be a big problem."
Cao Yang naturally supports the standardized production of batteries, and everyone uses the same size battery pack, which is convenient for the development of battery swap business.
But it's actually hard!
"That's right, first unifying the cell specifications is already a big progress."
"I'll think about the others next."
Wang Fu is naturally aware of the difficulty of battery standardization, so he does not expect to be able to do it in one step.
Now it is good to be able to work with Nanshan Group to make standardized battery cells.

NetEase Auto Channel, as the second only to Autohome in the Chinese automobile media, has also paid great attention to content innovation in recent years.
Whether it is the appearance of the F1 column before or the production of the "Lady as a Car Model" column, it has attracted a lot of traffic.
With the rapid development of China's automobile industry, the topic of new energy vehicles is slowly increasing.
Fang Dawen was also keenly aware of this change.
"Xiaolin, you arrange a person to be in charge of the business of the new energy sector, I feel that the topics related to new energy vehicles will become more and more hot in the future, and it is necessary for us to lay out in advance."
From the news of Nanshan Battery's large-scale construction of a new factory, Fang Dawen realized that the era of new energy vehicles is likely to come faster than he imagined.
Naturally, there will be some changes in some news reports.
If Cao Yang were here, he would be able to realize how much this kind of news has changed.
When it comes to 2023, when you go to an auto show, there is basically no one paying attention to traditional fuel vehicles.
Even if it is a traditional fuel vehicle of Mercedes-Benz and BMW, it is difficult to attract everyone's attention.
Traditional Accord, Camry, Teana and other mid-to-high-end sedans can not attract the attention of consumers.
Throughout the auto show, everyone will basically use new energy vehicles as the main publicity point to publicize.
Because that's the only way to get some heat.
Similarly, the articles of various automotive media will also closely revolve around the reports related to new energy vehicles.
This change has made many people a little unacceptable.
If NetEase Auto Channel can lay out in this area in advance, its second position in the industry will be more stable at that time.
"I'll personally bring two newcomers to this section, I think it will probably be the most important section of our channel in the future."
"Reports on electric vehicles, batteries and other three-electric parts can be placed in this section."
Lin Jiayan has been in the automotive industry for so many years, and her vision is naturally not bad.
She felt she needed to hold this section in her hands so that she could always have her voice in the channel.
Otherwise, the person in charge of this section is likely to become her opponent in the competition for the editor-in-chief of the channel.
"It's okay, if you're willing to follow me personally, I'll be more at ease."
"In this channel, we can make several lists, such as the list of production capacity of car batteries, and the list of monthly deliveries."
"Of course, the list of new energy vehicles can also be started."
"The best thing is that our new energy sector can make a name for itself in the industry and form a certain influence."
"The future may bring us unexpected surprises."
Fang Dawen simply mentioned his request.
Soon, there was a change in the NetEase Auto Channel.
Huaxia's battery companies and automotive media can feel this change and make some changes.
As the world's automotive battery giants, they will naturally not be indifferent.
"Shangpingsang, Yahoo reported that a battery manufacturer in Huaxia has added 3GWH of production capacity in one go, which is larger than the production capacity of other battery manufacturers in the world."
"What do you think about this?"
Qi Takada, General Manager of Panasonic's Battery Business Division, hopes that Panasonic will become a leader in the global battery industry.
Over the years, Panasonic's actions on the power battery are not small at all.
On the one hand, it cooperated with Tesla to build a cylindrical battery factory to supply Tesla's electric vehicles.
On the other hand, it supplies prismatic lithium batteries to Honda automobiles, and also cooperates with some other OEMs.
Whether it is in Dongying or in China, everyone knows that energy conservation and emission reduction must be in line with the direction of development.
However, in Dongying China, whether to take the electric vehicle route or take the hydrogen energy route, everyone's views are not exactly the same.
As an island country, power resources are actually relatively scarce.
On the contrary, water resources are relatively abundant, and the development of hydrogen energy seems to be very promising.
At least that's how many people in Dongying see it that way.
Therefore, whether it is Toyota or Honda, they have developed their own hydrogen energy vehicles.
Even Toyota has invested a lot of manpower and material resources to develop hydrogen energy vehicles, and most of the world's patents related to hydrogen energy vehicles are in the hands of Toyota.
They dream that one day, when the era of hydrogen energy vehicles comes, they can comfortably find various OEMs to collect royalties.
Therefore, companies like Panasonic that bet on electric vehicles are not particularly comfortable in Dongying.
At least that's the case with Panasonic's battery division.
"China's electric vehicle market has developed very well in the past two years."
"Electric buses and electric taxis, in particular, are being rolled out very quickly."
"The Trumpchi S produced by Yangcheng Trumpchi has now stabilized at about 2,000 units a month."
"The sales of electric buses and electric buses produced by Nanshan Goat City Commercial Vehicles have also gone to about 500 units per month."
"And many car companies in China have begun to prepare to launch electric models, and even specialized electric vehicle companies have set up several."
"Therefore, the capacity expansion of Nanshan Battery, on the one hand, there is a realistic supply demand in it, and on the other hand, it should be their own advance layout for the future."
"Chinese people are sometimes more radical in doing things."
"In order to get the so-called first, it is often at any cost, so it does not have much reference."
Huaxia is a place where the new energy industry has developed relatively fast, and it is also a market with relatively large policy support.
Therefore, Shangping Shinichi pays more attention to the movements of the Chinese market.
Panasonic is also considering whether to build a plant in Huaxia internally.
Its customer, Honda, is already preparing to introduce a hybrid version of the Accord next year, and the battery will be supplied by Panasonic.
Now Yangcheng Honda hopes that Panasonic will build a battery factory in Huaxia to realize the localized supply of hybrid batteries, which can effectively reduce costs.
Otherwise, if the price of a hybrid car is much higher than that of a gasoline car, it will not be attractive at all, and consumers will not pay for it.
"It's hard to say!"
"That Nanshan Group is a very famous enterprise in China, and its technical level in all aspects is much higher than that of other Chinese manufacturers."
"They dare to invest so boldly in new battery factories, and I think there are still some lessons to be learned."
"Next week, you arrange for us to go to the cities where several factories in Huaxia are located to inspect and see if it is really suitable to build a battery factory in Huaxia."
Takada vaguely feels that if Panasonic wants to maintain its leading position in the battery field, then it is time to consider building a battery factory in Huaxia.
Otherwise, after the rise of Huaxia battery manufacturers, Panasonic's opportunities will be much less.
"We are already preparing to build a new large-scale battery factory in the United States, and if we want to build a factory in China at the same time, the financial pressure is quite high, right?"
Shinichi Kamihira is obviously a little not very supportive, so quickly set up a factory in Huaxia.
He felt that the conditions were not yet ripe.
A Honda Accord is not enough to support a battery factory.
But Takada's view is not exactly the same as his.
Now go to investigate, and wait until the battery factory is built, it will be in 2012.
At that time, the situation in the automobile market in China may have been completely different.
In particular, they have already inquired that the first pure electric vehicle of Future Automobile, a subsidiary of Nanshan Group, will be launched soon.
Electric vehicles from other Chinese companies will also be launched next year.
At that time, Huaxia's new energy vehicle market will usher in a big change!
