NOVEL NEXT Chapter 89
Red Flag Headquarters
“Boss, I have received a lot of emails from other companies recently.”
Wang Youwei reported
“Oh? What is the specific content?”
Lu Yan became interested.
He saw that many companies sent emails in the company’s public mailbox, including many important large enterprises, and even many investors with a lot of money sent their intentions to cooperate.
Obviously, the success of Hongqi has made the entire capital market move.
“It seems that they should have studied the technology of Hongqi H9.”
Lu Yan took a quick look.
Most of the companies said that they were very interested in the super battery pack developed by Hongqi supercar.
You know, since such an advanced battery pack can be used in supercars, it can also be used in ordinary models on the market.
Moreover, high-density battery pack technology is not only used in cars, but also in many energy companies and energy storage businesses.
In a sense,
Hongqi has mastered the battery technology, which means it has mastered the foundation of new energy.
Several emerging energy giants in China, including CATL, have risen by mastering the production technology of advanced batteries!!
“These people have a keen sense of smell, but their attitude is very ordinary.”
After reading some emails.
Lu Yan shook his head.
Some of them were vague in the emails, and were unwilling to let go of the status of a large enterprise. They actually asked to buy Hongqi’s battery technology, or to build a factory with shares. It was really a bit difficult.
No matter how much money was spent, Hongqi would not be sold.
One of the emails was sent by the energy giant CATL.
They actually wishfully believed that Hongqi’s super battery technology should be too expensive and could only be used in supercars. They said that they could jointly develop cost-reduction methods for this battery with Hongqi, as long as Hongqi was willing to share some technology with CATL.
Lu Yan was speechless.
CATL, an energy giant, was too confident. If they knew that the production cost of solid-state ion batteries was actually For Hongqi, there is no difference between producing other ordinary battery packs and sending this email. I am afraid that they will regret it.
However, the attitudes of the traditional car companies are quite good. Among these major domestic car brands, there are a large number of new energy vehicle models and new energy sub-brands.
For them, whether buying batteries from CATL or buying batteries from other companies, it is actually the same thing. Moreover, over the years, CATL and the other two energy companies have almost formed a monopoly, and the prices of the entire battery industry have more than doubled. They are eager for a new battery company to rise quickly and break this situation. What surprised Lu Yan was that BYD, a car company that masters blade battery technology, also sent an email.
“”Keep the emails from these domestic car companies and throw the rest into the trash.”
Lu Yan said.
He already had an idea in mind.
Wang Youwei was a little surprised:
“Boss, you mean to say that you are going to cooperate with these car companies and delegate our battery technology to them? ?”
Lu Yan had a smile on his face:
“That’s what I mean, but we have to wait until the first batch of battery packs are produced, then we can buy land to build a large super battery factory, and make the battery energy business as the main branch of our car manufacturing business to make profits.”
In Lu Yan’s view, the battery business is not less profitable than selling cars.
Now their solid-state ion batteries are released.
It can immediately solve the current pure electric vehicle endurance problem, which is what all car companies urgently need.
“Boss, why don’t we make a few more popular models and monopolize the battery technology? Wouldn’t it be more profitable?!”
Wang Youwei couldn’t help but say.
In his opinion, as long as the new energy vehicles are equipped with solid-state ion batteries, they will definitely be invincible.
In this case, Hongqi can completely take over.
“The battery sales business does not affect our launch of other high-volume models.
Besides, the car manufacturing market has never been an oligopoly market with one company dominating the market, because the car market is too segmented and the audiences at each stage are different.
In the end, there must be multiple companies coexisting.
Even the former car pioneer Daimler Benz Group has not done it.
Instead of going into the market ourselves, it is better to follow the example of CATL and let all car companies work for us.
We will reap a share of the profits from every car they sell.
……”
“Secondly, these traditional car companies want to reach long-term cooperation with us, but they also have conditions. Although we have battery manufacturing technology, if we want to take over everything, we still need a lot of iron-lithium mining shares. The heads of these traditional car companies, including BYD, have acquired a lot of lithium resources, which is just right for them to exchange.”
Lu Yan said with a smile.
Now, not only in China, but also in the world, valuable lithium mines are controlled by many capitals.
As an important raw material for batteries, once the price of lithium resources increases, the entire battery industry will have to follow suit. As a latecomer, Hongqi can only truly become the ruler of the new energy industry if it controls the equity of raw materials.
“Hiss… Let all car companies work for us?!!”
After listening to Lu Yan’s plan and intention,
Wang Youwei’s face was shocked!!
With this idea, the territory controlled by Hongqi in the future will be very grand!
“By the way, how is the delivery volume of Hongqi S9 at present?”
Lu Yan asked.
He still needs to pay attention to this aspect as the first batch of car owners have been waiting for so long.
“Boss, Hongqi S9 has been delivered in large quantities and steadily, and the first batch of car owners have given feedback that they are very satisfied. Now you can even see many cars running on the road in Shanghai.”
When mentioning this, Wang Youwei said with a smile.
Even though the price of the Hongqi S9 is as high as one million, many consumers even feel that they have got a bargain after buying it!
It can be said that there is no dissatisfaction, and the feedback from the entire car owner group is also very good.
Of course, it has also completely destroyed the market of million-level luxury executive cars.
“What about our supercar orders? How is the expected delivery in the first month?”
Lu Yan nodded and asked again.
Wang Youwei: (To read the exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
“Boss, the number of locked orders for Hongqi H9 has exceeded 4,000, and it is estimated that at least 1,200 units will be delivered in the first month. When many foreign consumers in the overseas market learned that the import price would double, they were very dissatisfied, but in the end, the total number of overseas orders exceeded 5,000 units, of which about 100 people ordered the top-end version of Hongqi H9.……”
This data is enough to say that it is a double-edged sword!
When Lu Yan was researching the supercar market before, he already had detailed data for reference.
The best-selling supercar brand in China is Porsche, which is owned by Volkswagen Group.[]
The monthly sales volume can reach 600 to 700.
As for other supercar brands, the monthly sales volume is about 100 to 300.
Now that Hongqi supercars have entered the market, the monthly domestic delivery volume has reached 1,200, which is almost catching up with the total of these supercar brands combined!
This data can only be described as terrifying.
Of course, other supercar brands are almost beaten to death. Other expensive supercars on the market are now falling in price like crazy!!
As for the number of overseas orders, it was somewhat beyond Lu Yan’s expectations.
I have to say, there are too many rich people out there.
Hongqi has not yet planned to launch large-scale overseas deliveries, and these orders will not enter the production sequence, because they, Hongqi, have not had time to build direct stores in many places overseas, and cannot provide a complete vehicle service system.
“It seems that we need to speed up the construction of our overseas direct-sale store system.”
Lu Yan sighed
…………
…………
The next day, several traditional car companies, including BYD, received a reply email from Hongqi.
BYD headquarters.
Inside the office
“Boss, Hongqi has replied via email, saying that they can start business cooperation on super batteries, but if they want to achieve long-term cooperation, they must exchange certain lithium mineral resources!!”
The assistant reported urgently.
Wang Chuanfu looked a little bad, and stood up!
“What… Hongqi actually wants lithium mine shares?!!”Even if he has a good temper, he is a little embarrassed now!!
Everyone knows.
For the new energy vehicle industry, lithium mine resource shares are equivalent to the lifeline.
When the price of lithium mines increased on a large scale, many new energy vehicle companies suffered large-scale losses and complained bitterly. BYD still has a lot of profit margins because it has a large amount of lithium mine resources and blade battery technology.
Wang Chuanfu thought that the conditions set by Hongqi would definitely be difficult to meet, but he didn’t expect them to be so harsh!
He now has the idea of giving up cooperation with Hongqi.
“Notify senior shareholders and hold another meeting……”
Wang Chuanfu said with a serious face
“Boss… Hongqi said in the email that their super solid-state battery can be fully mass-produced, and the cost is similar to that of mainstream battery packs on the market, or even lower.……”
The assistant said nervously
“hiss——”
As soon as these words came out,
Wang Chuanfu took a breath, his face full of shock, and he took a step back and sat down.
“What? Mass production… and the cost is even lower!!”
In that case, he really needs to think carefully.
Although Hongqi’s requirements are excessive, its strength is far stronger than he imagined, which is really enough to solve the current lifeline problem of new energy vehicles!
……
The same situation happened to many senior executives of traditional car companies.
When they saw Hongqi’s reply email, they were very angry at first.
Then, when they learned about the cards and technology in Hongqi’s hands, they were all shocked and began to think quickly about the pros and cons.
