Chapter 204: Waiting for Mr. Kang's visit and guidance
After the successful test of a single cell, it does not mean that the battery will be successful, and the next step is to carry out packaging tests, as well as various safety tests that are the most challenging for the battery.
However, Kangchi has no interest in the follow-up test, and the battery he made has a few catties and taels, and he knows it very well.
That's what the system uses on the oil extractor by default.
With the working environment of oil extractors, I will blow you up casually, so why not?
On the contrary, it was Zhang Qing who brought him the latest information in the lithium battery industry, which made Kangchi interested.
After LG and CATL both released their own big moves, BYD also announced their blade batteries, with an energy density of more than 200Wh/kg.
Temporary recruitment, can only hold out a 200Wh/kg, it can be seen that BYD in lithium battery technology, in fact, is still slightly weaker than CATL.
However, one is ternary lithium and the other is lithium iron phosphate, the two are not the same technical route, in fact, there is nothing to compare.
In short, after LG took the lead in the lithium battery energy density competition, the news of various breakthroughs in lithium battery technology seemed to have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.
It can be said that LG's big move has directly stifled the bile of many battery factories.
Ordinary consumers are also excited about this, feeling that the breakthrough of lithium battery technology and new energy vehicles seem to be able to support it.
"Having lost Tesla's order, and facing the joint encirclement and suppression of LG and Songxia, although CATL seems to be stable on the surface, they are actually in a very dangerous situation."
Zhang Qing slowly analyzed to Kangchi,
"If there is no variable for us, unless they really produce solid-state lithium batteries and the cost is controllable, they are likely to lose this lithium battery race and finally be carved up by major car companies in the lithium battery market."
"I think with the current situation, there is no need to throw out sour plums to make CATL seriously consider this matter."
"Especially now that you've built a sodium-ion battery!"
Kang Chi pondered for a moment, and then nodded slowly: "Since you don't think you have to wait, then let's go to Ningde." ”
"Okay, I'll arrange it now."
In the afternoon, CATL received the news from Datang Heavy Industry and learned that Kangchi was going to come to Ningde and have a personal interview with Mr. Zeng.
In fact, before that, the batteries used by Datang Heavy Industries to manufacture oil extraction insects were all purchased from CATL, and the two sides were also old partners.
Therefore, Zeng Yuqing, who received the news, his first reaction was that Datang Heavy Industries was finally ready to smash a large number of orders on the face of CATL for the battery swap station project!
This made Zeng Yuqing's old face, which had been frowning recently, finally stretch out.
But then, he was a little weird.
If Kangchi plans to purchase batteries, why did he buy those small battery factories some time ago?
Zeng Yuqing was puzzled, so he had to let go of this doubt, and asked his secretary to immediately reply to Zhang Qing:
[Chairman Zeng Yuqing has been in Ningde recently, waiting for Mr. Kang's visit and guidance at any time! 】
——
How much impact can a company have on a city?
When it comes to this topic, it is estimated that no one can compare with CATL.
This company, which has only been established for 12 years, took off directly with Ningde, a third-tier city, and ranked first in the province in terms of economic growth for four consecutive years, and directly entered the ranks of the top 100 cities in terms of GDP in the country.
Under the siphon effect of CATL, more than 80 upstream and downstream enterprises of lithium batteries have directly settled in Ningde, and more than 200 leading enterprises covering core materials, battery structural parts and intelligent equipment have also set up branches in Ningde.
Although with the settlement of Dahan Core Industry in Steel City and the settlement of Datang Heavy Industry in Dongyang, they have also played a huge role in promoting the development of the local economy and industrial chain, and there is hope to surpass Ningde in the future.
But at least for now, in terms of the influence of enterprises on the city, it is estimated that CATL is stronger.
Kangchi, who was sitting in the car, looked at the slogan of "Huaguo New Energy Battery Capital" everywhere, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "This is really a city that makes batteries." ”
"Well, Ningde's economic foundation is thin, and there is a trillion-dollar enterprise, which is an absolute pillar industry for them." Zhang Qing nodded approvingly, "But now that you have made such an exaggerated sodium battery, the whole city will have to work for you......"
"It's not such an exaggeration." Kang Chi smiled, "And how good it is to work for me, a good boss of Huaguo who never oppresses employees, I don't know how many people want to come to our company." ”
"Well, that's true." Zhang Qing gently held his chin with his hand and smiled, "It's a pity that not every company has a good boss like you, even if they want to be like you, they don't have that strength......"
"Is this a compliment to me?"
"No, I'm scolding you for being too perverted."
“……”
Originally, CATL was going to welcome Kangchi in the most grand way, but for the sake of safety, Zhang Qing communicated with them in advance and asked them to keep a low profile.
Therefore, except for a few executives in CATL, no one knew that Kangchi had suddenly visited CATL.
After the two sides met, they exchanged business blows as usual, and then Mr. Zeng personally led Kangchi to take a turn in their company's exhibition hall to show the glorious development history and main products of CATL.
Although Zhang Qing asked them to keep a low profile in advance, it was Kangchi after all.
In terms of financial resources, although Longteng Group has not let a third party carry out valuation, it can be seen from the hundreds of billions of investment in battery swap stations that its strength and background are unfathomable.
In terms of the level of science and technology, just an EUV lithography machine directly crushed them.
Therefore, no matter how low-key Zeng Yuqing is, it is impossible to bring only two or three people to receive him.
So including those who took Kangchi to the exhibition hall to turn, and those who waited in the conference room in advance, the conference room added up to more than a dozen leaders of various departments,
They all sat with notebooks in their hands, with a posture of listening carefully to Party A's needs......
Seeing this posture, Kang Chi hurriedly leaned into Zeng Yuqing's ear and whispered: "Actually, I came this time just to talk to you about something in private...... We, Mr. Zhang, should have conveyed this meaning in advance. ”
Zeng Yuqing couldn't help but be stunned.
Talk privately?
He remembered that the secretary only said to keep a low profile.
After Zeng Yuqing thought about it, he immediately said to the secretary: "Cancel the meeting, let's go to the VIP room to talk." ”
So Kang Chi followed Zeng Yuqing to a reception room with quite luxurious decoration.
Before going in, Lai Qinglei also went in in advance to investigate, and after confirming that there was no problem, he asked Chen Hai to take Kangchi in.
In the face of Kang Chi's caution and the two bodyguards following him, Zeng Yuqing felt a little exaggerated, but he didn't say anything.
After all, it is a lithography machine and an oil extractor, can the country protect him like a national treasure?
