Chapter 218: Can't sit still?

For the applications issued by these Sinotruk manufacturers, Datang Heavy Industries naturally welcomed them very warmly.

However, due to the large number and the itinerary is not necessarily the same, it is impossible for Kangchi to receive every one, so it can only let the public relations department and relevant technical engineers be responsible for negotiation.

In fact, there is nothing to talk about, nothing more than to accompany them to visit the battery swap station and battery production line, and send them two batteries to take back to study, and if they are interested, they will develop battery swap models according to this module.

When their products are made and the car is actually delivered, Datang Heavy Industries will naturally send the relevant model of batteries over, and then help the owner apply for an account on Datang Heavy Industries' paid APP.

In addition to these heavy automobile companies, there are also battery manufacturers including Guoxuan Hi-Tech, China Aviation Lithium Battery, and EVE Lithium Energy.

For them, Datang Heavy Industries is ready to formulate cooperation plans in line with the actual situation of each company according to their respective actual conditions.

However, their treatment and positioning are definitely different from those of the Ningde era.

In order to prevent technical leaks, Kangchi's plan is to support CATL as the big brother in the field of sodium battery manufacturing, and he will be responsible for coordinating the entire sodium battery manufacturing industry chain.

Because of nano battery technology, it can actually be split into the entire battery industry chain, nearly 100 links upstream and downstream, hundreds of companies,

Other battery factories and raw material manufacturing plants, if they want to participate in the manufacture of sodium batteries, can only be responsible for one or more of them.

Only Datang Heavy Industry and CATL have truly mastered a full set of technologies.

Kangchi only needs to control CATL, and the full set of technologies mastered by CATL is also responsible for the split of multiple departments.

In this way, even if there is a technical leak in one link, the people behind the scenes will not be able to complete the puzzle of the entire technology.

As for all technical links, the possibility of leaking all secrets,

It can be said that it is almost zero......

The difficulty and cost are too great,

If that's the case, then play with a hammer?

Forget it about direct surrender.

Take 10,000 steps back and say, it has really reached the point where the spy war can be fought into a hot war, and Kangchi also has a 400Wh/kg backhand.

——

Nov. 3, 9:00 p.m.

It has been exactly 24 hours since the pre-sale of the return to the truth.

The number of orders on the first day was finally fixed at 46,000!

This result simply blinded everyone.

Last month's car sales list was topped by Tesla's Model Y, which sold more than 4.5W units, a full 1.1W more than the second-place Sylphy.

But in just 24 hours, it surpassed the Model Y's sales for the entire month last month!

And it is also a new car with a new energy replenishment mode, and consumers have never even seen or touched the actual car, let alone test drive.

To have this achievement, in addition to the prestige support of Kangchi himself, as well as the extremely cost-effective naked car price, more, in fact, is the policy commitment that the car can be returned for no reason after booking the car in the first two months.

This gives consumers a great deal of courage to try and make mistakes.

So on the Internet, following the hot search list of Datang Heavy Industries' press conference, there was another piece of news that the daily sales exceeded 40,000.

Seeing this figure, almost all passenger car companies are red-eyed.

But only a few car companies in the field of new energy, such as Qi Rui, have not opened up the situation for a long time.

However, new energy vehicle companies such as BYD, Aion, Weilai, Ideal, and Xiaopeng still decided to wait and see for a while.

Among them, BYD resolutely opposed the battery swap mode back then, and insisted on having its own complete industrial chain and its own battery factory.

If they cooperate with Datang Heavy Industries, it means that they will make a major adjustment to the group's strategy and abandon the whole industry chain and battery factories.

A press conference and a momentary boom in sales were certainly not enough for them to make this decision.

What's more, their main area is gasoline-electric hybrid, and the cost of a car's battery is not high.

Finally, if you only sell naked cars in the future and can't make a fuss about batteries, the profit margin will also be greatly reduced......

This is also the reason why brands such as Aion, Weilai, Ideal, and Xiaopeng have chosen to wait and see.

Before the real delivery and the user's acceptance of the battery swap mode is still unknown, the urgency of the matter is not as great as imagined.

……

Datang Heavy Industries, inside the chairman's office.

Kang Chi was listening to Zhang Qing's work report, and Zeng Yuqing of the CATL era suddenly made a phone call and said:

"Mr. Kang, just now Anil, the head of Tesla's Dahua region, and I talked on the phone and said that we want to purchase our sodium batteries."

"Oh?" Kang Chi couldn't help but say with some surprise, "They can't sit still so soon?" ”

"Well, it is estimated that the three-year order just signed with LG makes them more passive, if we agree to supply them, we can find a way to release LG pigeons......"

"And how did you answer?"

"I said that CATL is only a foundry now, and I want to buy batteries to find you Datang Heavy Industries." Zeng Yuqing said with a smile,

"He was just a little hesitant after hearing this, but I added that Datang Heavy Industries only sells battery-swapping batteries, and then there is no follow-up on his side, and it is estimated that their big boss still adheres to the overcharging strategy and does not want to switch to the battery-swapping mode so quickly."

"Well, it's okay, just leave them alone." Kang Chi said indifferently,

"The current sodium battery production capacity is limited, and it is not enough for us to use ourselves, not to mention that Huaguo Heavy Duty Truck will come in two days, even if they figure it out, it is estimated that there will be no batteries for them in the short term."

Hearing that Huaguo Heavy Duty Truck was ready to contact Datang Heavy Industries, Zeng Yuqing was not surprised, after all, he had been making batteries for so long, and his ability to grasp the needs and psychology of these customers was stronger than Kangchi.

However, these heavy trucks are a big demand for batteries, and they started to enter the market so quickly, which has put a lot of pressure on CATL.

After promising to Kangchi that within three months, he would lead the entire lithium battery industry chain to complete the industrial transformation to sodium batteries, Zeng Yuqing hung up the phone.

Kang Chi here continued to discuss the problems they were encountering with Zhang Qing.

As with batteries, it's mainly a matter of capacity.

The daily sales are 46,000, and the monthly sales are a little bit unsure of how to estimate.

Although sales will definitely fall over time, monthly sales are certainly more than three times the first-day sales, even if conservatively estimated.

Such a large order, whether it is the body production line of Qirui Automobile or the motor production line of Datang Heavy Industry, is a bit unbearable.

The body is okay, after all, Qi Rui is an old factory, there are so many production lines, they will find their own way to solve the production capacity.

However, Datang Heavy Industries' motors do not mean that they can be expanded immediately.

After nearly a year of rapid development, Datang Heavy Industries has nearly 30,000 employees, and the factory building alone is a bit insufficient.

But fortunately, the mountain below Kang Chi's house has been hollowed out by the military's engineering team, and now he is waiting for him to come over and accept it.
