Chapter 200: Buying Time for Development
Dongyang City, Huaguo Construction Bank.
"300 billion !?"
When Fan Jinyou, president of Dongyang Head Office, heard that Longteng Technology Group wanted to apply for a loan of 300 billion yuan,
I'm so scared that the gallstones are about to crack!
Zhang Qing nodded, and then officially submitted their sodium battery business development plan:
"I think that with our group's current fixed assets and flows, plus core key technologies such as shale oil extraction, lithography machines, and chip manufacturing, there should be no problem with the loan application of 300 billion yuan, right?"
After Fan Jinyou listened to Zhang Qing's words, his little heart slowly calmed down.
The reason why he was so surprised just now was not a question of whether he could take out a loan.
The main thing is that this amount is so large that it is simply unheard of......
At least he doesn't seem to have heard of any private company that will have to borrow 300 billion yuan.
Fan Jinyou couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I also know that with the strength of your group, let alone 300 billion, if it triples, there will definitely be a lot of capital rushing to acquire it." ”
"But this amount is too big, and I definitely can't handle it here......"
As he spoke, he glanced at the loan application form and the proposal again.
"Sodium batteries and battery swap stations?"
"Well, this is our group's latest project."
"Dr. Kang took the lead?"
"Yes."
"Then I'll be relieved."
Fan Jinyou nodded and said, "In this way, I will go to the Yanjing head office with the plan to report now, and whether I can borrow it depends on the decision of the head office." ”
"Okay, then it's going to trouble President Fan."
As a result, this loan application was quickly brought to the Yanjing head office by President Fan, and the loan application of 300 billion yuan immediately shocked the senior leaders of the entire China Construction Bank.
Although they have not accepted such large loans, they are basically large infrastructure projects of the state, and the objects of the loans are all state-owned enterprises and the like.
300 billion ......
You can build a highway that runs through the north and south.
After a meeting to study the loan application, they finally couldn't make up their minds, so they continued to report and asked the Energy Bureau and the Ministry of Science and Technology about their intentions.
After seeing this application, the leaders of the two bureaus also immediately pulled in the leaders of CCB and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and held a special meeting.
The theme of the meeting has also changed from whether it can be borrowed to whether it is really feasible to replace the battery.
In fact, in recent years, some people have been proposing that the state should take the lead in formulating a battery standard and implementing a new energy battery swap program.
But for various reasons, the matter has been put on hold.
In fact, if you really want to implement the battery swap program, the best time is to unify the battery standard when you first start to implement the new energy strategy.
But at that time, the domestic battery technology was still very immature, if this standard was forcibly implemented, it was a huge obstacle to the development of new energy.
From the perspective of consumer psychology, every user with a poor battery state tends to replace their poor battery with a good battery, and users with good batteries are unwilling to put their batteries into it, which will cause this battery replacement mode to be unable to play at all.
Unless the user is directly cut off from charging by himself, there is no other choice but to change the battery.
If the battery technology is mature and stable, and the user's use cost is relatively low, this may be feasible, but when the battery technology is mixed and the price remains high, it is not feasible at all.
The most important thing is that at that time, I didn't know whether this new energy strategy would work or not.
What if so much money is spent, battery technology cannot be developed, consumers do not buy it, and new energy cannot be transferred?
Finally, at the beginning of the matter, no one knew how to set this standard.
It's too high and unrealistic, and if it's too low, it will have to be changed later, and it's a huge project.
After missing this opportunity, it will be more difficult to implement battery standards later.
At the meeting, many leaders expressed their opinions and discussed hotly, but in the end, all the problems pointed to one thing:
Can Kangchi make a sodium-ion battery with high energy density and low cost?
If it can, then the feasibility of this matter is naturally very high.
This can not only promote the strategy of new energy development, but also solve the problem of carbon emissions.
At the same time, it can also solve the problem of grid energy storage, which alone is worthy of support.
What's more, let Longteng Technology, a private company, use its technological advantages to guide industry reform, and it is not necessary for the state to come forward as a black face and forcibly promote new standards to offend so many car companies, battery factories and ordinary consumers......
So if this wave happens, they can win three times.
Simply wonderful!
"On the technical side, I trust Dr. Kang a lot."
Chief Lu patted his chest and reassured,
"Since he has the courage to play so big, he must be absolutely sure of the technical aspect, so as long as this model works, I will definitely raise my hands in agreement."
"And this is actually just a normal investment behavior of a private company, even if the project fails, as long as the entire investment process meets the regulations, in fact, we have no reason to blame them, but we should thank them for daring to take risks and help us try and make mistakes."
"But isn't the amount of normal investment a little too much...... the leader of CCB said with a wry smile, "The initial amount is 300 billion, and additional investment may be continued later. ”
"I'm going to correct your notion about this." Chief Lu smiled and asked, "Let me ask you, how much does Longteng Group think it's worth now?" ”
"Uh...... Trillion? ”
"Okay, then we'll be a trillion, but where did that trillion come from? It's all a cake that Dr. Kang has worked so hard to make with his own research and development technology, and we didn't give it to him, and it wasn't like Hengda to play with leverage, even if he really smashed this cake himself, it can't be called a hole at all, right? ”
"The truth is such a reason, but I feel a little distressed......"
"People don't feel sorry for you, why don't you think so much about Dr. Kang? I see that you were scared out of an occupational disease by Hengda, and all you think about all day long is risk, risk, risk, once you were bitten by a snake for ten years and afraid of the well rope, and you lost that momentum. ”
The leader of CCB smiled, but did not refute.
"Ahem, now that a preliminary consensus has been reached, there is another topic next."
The leader of the Energy Bureau spoke,
"Our power grid company and the three barrels of oil, do you want to get involved? After all, with such a large plate, they may not be able to play with it themselves. ”
Chief Lu suddenly smiled and said, "What, do you think people are going to rob you of your three barrels of oil?" ”
"How?" The leader of the Energy Bureau immediately retorted, "Just allow you to protect the calves, but not us?" ”
"That's up to your calves to fight."
Chief Lu said unceremoniously,
"In this matter, I think it's better for us not to get involved in the early stage, so as not to release the wrong signal, and in the end we still have this black face."
"But your Energy Bureau, you still have to give the support and help you should get, and when their plate is bigger, just let them give you a little bit."
"In fact, in my opinion, private enterprises and state-owned enterprises are our enterprises, especially Dr. Kang's company, each of which is deeply rooted in China, and there is actually no difference between it and state-owned enterprises."
"If that doesn't work, then we'll go to the House of Elders for evaluation."
Chief Lu's words are actually helping Kangchi maximize his interests.
In fact, he also knows very well that if this project can be completed, it will be able to seize at least half of the market of three barrels of oil, and the future potential is unlimited.
Therefore, it is inevitable to let the power grid and three barrels of oil enter the market and become a state-owned enterprise.
It's all about the timing of their entry.
If you enter too early, it will definitely not be a good thing for Kangchi,
Only when the size of the cake is basically stabilized, and then let them enter, can Kangchi maximize the income.
And what Chief Lu can do for Kangchi is to delay their entry time and give Kangchi time to develop.
Chief Lu's meaning, the other leaders naturally understood it.
If this matter really goes to the House of Elders, for the sake of public image, they will definitely support Chief Lu and choose to let Kang Chi be the pioneer of this reform.
Moreover, Chief Lu's proposal can be regarded as a concession by both sides, so the leaders of the Energy Bureau did not get bored and finally agreed to this plan.
After the meeting, Chief Lu immediately made a phone call to Kang Chi and conveyed to him the content and results of their meeting.
“…… That's probably it, I've bought you three years, and if you can succeed in this project, you may have to value and sell some shares to them, but don't worry, I guarantee that you can control at least 51% of the absolute controlling interest. ”
Although Kang Chi didn't know the details of their discussion, it could be seen from the results alone that this was definitely the greatest benefit that Chief Lu could help him fight.
And it took three years, which was enough for him to make this plate completely bigger.
When the time comes, you will definitely be able to recoup a huge amount of money!
"Well, I see, thank you for the support of the leader."
"It's okay, you do a good job, try to get the sodium battery you said out as soon as possible."
"You can rest assured, you are guaranteed to complete the task!"
