Chapter 139 Don't worry about him 【Subscription】

Regarding the layout of charging centers and battery replacement stations, Xu Lei has long decided on the plan.

Although it may cost hundreds of billions of capital from the completion to the installation and use of the facilities, the value for the future will be inestimable.

Xu Lei thought it was worth it.

Although the company spent a lot of money on building Longfor High-tech Park, building a large intelligent data center, and a new solid-state battery production base.

But Xu Lei himself owns half of the shares of Godson Group.

In addition, the Chinese Academy of Sciences uses the technology conquered by Xingtong, and he will also get part of the benefits obtained.

So there is absolutely no problem in terms of funds.

Besides.

Xu Lei has already agreed with the higher authorities on this plan. In addition to receiving strong support, the power grid will also fully cooperate.

After all, this can both reduce carbon emissions and reduce dependence on overseas oil.

So in the face of Liu Gaowen's question, Xu Lei then repeated again: "The charging center and battery replacement station are related to the company's future industry layout. No matter how many difficulties there are in the middle, they must be overcome and completed. Just do as I said. Arrange other people to take charge at the battery base first."

Liu Gaowen knew Xu Lei's character well.

Being able to talk to this extent shows that the planning of the charging center is indeed very important to future technology.

Knowing the problem, Liu Gaowen naturally had nothing to hesitate.

"I know Mr. Xu, I will do a good job in this matter." In the end, he nodded in response, and then turned and left.

It wasn't until Liu Gaowen's figure completely disappeared from sight that Xu Lei turned his attention back to the scenery of Longhu Lake in the distance, enjoying the tea in his cup.

It can be said that the construction of the battery production base and the charging center started successively, and the time between them was not very long.

With the strong support from the power grid, it is believed that the charging centers and battery replacement stations in various places will not encounter resistance during the construction process, which will affect the construction progress.

Maybe when the battery base is put into use, new energy vehicle brand companies get solid-state power batteries, and when new solid-state battery vehicles are launched, charging centers and battery replacement stations should also be able to start serving users.

I really don't know what kind of huge surprises will be given to major brand companies and car owners.

Also.

The quality problems of the charging center and the battery replacement station will be checked and accepted by the company headquarters directly, so it is absolutely impossible to cut corners.

But when Xu Lei was thinking about these things alone, he saw Chen Shihe walking over suddenly.

"Mr. Xu..."

He was about to speak but was interrupted by Xu Lei.

"Sit down first."

As if he didn't expect Xu Lei to say this suddenly, Chen Shihe was startled for a while, and then obediently sat down on the opposite chair.

Slowly raised his eyes and carefully looked at Xu Lei's profile, only to feel that his mind was confused.

In the end, he forcibly suppressed these messy thoughts, and brought up the business again.

"President Xu, there is something I need to report to you."

"Today, Ningwang New Energy announced the official launch of sodium-ion batteries, and has cooperated with Pingguo mobile phones."

"Will this affect the sales of Xingyuan batteries?"

Chen Shihe has been Xu Lei's assistant for such a long time, and he has a very clear understanding of many things in the industry.

As a leading company in the battery industry, Ningwang New Energy has a market value approaching one trillion yuan.

Xingyuan Battery suddenly appeared, and with its mature metal all-solid-state battery technology, it broke the absolute position of traditional lithium batteries and rewritten the pattern of the entire industry. The other party will definitely not sit still.

Now that sodium-ion batteries are launched, it is obvious that they want to compete with Xingyuan batteries.

In addition, they have reached a cooperation with Pingguo, which is bound to bring greater influence in the industry.

If the popularity of sodium-ion batteries really overwhelms solid-state batteries in the end, I am afraid that all the layout effects of Xingyuan batteries will be greatly reduced.

Faced with this situation, it is normal for Chen Shihe to be worried.

It's just that after Xu Lei learned of this incident, he still maintained a calm expression, and it seemed that he was not affected at all.

After a pause for a few seconds, he opened his mouth and said: "I said why Pingguo is so nervous, I dare say he has found a new partner."

After the production capacity investment conference ended that day, Xu Lei thought that Pingguo’s CEO Kulas would come to him in private to discuss cooperation again. After all, when other mobile phone brands use solid-state batteries, Pingguo still uses lithium batteries. A lot of competition.

But it is a pity that in the end he did not wait for Kulas who changed his mind.

In this regard, Xu Lei thought that the other party was confident enough to guarantee sales without changing the battery.

It is only now that I understand that Kuras has found an alternative to solid-state batteries.

But Chen Shihe saw that Xu Lei was still not nervous, so he hesitated a little and chose to ask a question.

At least this will reassure yourself.

"Mr. Xu."

"Shouldn't we have a solution to the sodium-ion battery thing?"

"Is this really okay?"

Hearing Chen Shihe's question, Xu Lei couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, and finally gave four words as an answer.

"Don't worry about him."

Chen Shihe naturally understands that Xu Lei's ability to say this shows that he really does not take Ningwang New Energy's sodium-ion battery to heart, which means that it is not enough to compare with metal solid-state batteries.

However, she was not very clear about the professional knowledge involved, and her face still showed doubts.

Although Xu Lei felt that Chen Shihe's appearance was cute, he still answered her in detail.

"The characteristics of sodium-ion batteries are destined to be unable to be used as power batteries in new energy vehicles. From this point of view, Ningwang New Energy chooses to use it to compete with us, so it cannot be the opponent of Xingyuan Battery."

"In addition, sodium is extremely unstable, and its ionic radius is larger than that of lithium, which can easily cause fission of the positive electrode material during charging and discharging."

"This leads to a very rapid degradation in battery performance."

"Limited battery life."

Ningwang New Energy has indeed been working on the research and development of sodium-ion batteries for a long time, but there has been no new news.

Basically still in the laboratory stage.

After all, if the short life of the battery cannot be well solved and the high performance of the battery cannot be maintained for a long time, even if the cost is cheaper than lithium batteries, it is useless.

Previously, Ningwang New Energy did not launch sodium-ion batteries for a long time, but now Xingyuan solid-state batteries have been launched as soon as they come out.

Obviously, in order to reverse the situation and counter the popularity of Xingyuan solid-state batteries, immature battery technology was used.

We must know that immature technologies are often used rashly, and the consequences are unpredictable.

There is a high chance of serious repercussions.

By that time, the loss of funds will probably be the lightest.

In this situation, Xu Lei couldn't help but start to mourn for Kuras in his heart. I'm afraid the new ally he chose is not as powerful as it looks.

It can only be said that there is nothing wrong with going to the doctor in a hurry!

Similarly, Chen Shihe was finally completely relieved at this time. After thinking of what Xu Lei said, he couldn't help asking curiously: "Mr. Xu, according to your analysis, is it the new sodium-ion battery released by Pingguo this time?" Could something be wrong?"

"I can't guarantee this, maybe... who knows..."

Seeing that Chen Shihe was so interested in this matter, Xu Lei didn't know what to say. After all, these were all his guesses. Whether the sodium-ion batteries used by Pingguo would overturn was anyone's guess.

So Xu Lei hurriedly got up and returned to his office after leaving such an ambiguous answer.

Chen Shihe, who was sitting alone on the chair, pondered over this sentence, and finally did not know what he thought of, and murmured thoughtfully: "Since Mr. Xu said that, he must have full confidence. It seems that this time Huawei is really going to win the high-end mobile phone market."

……

……

In the following time, under Xu Lei's overall planning and huge financial support, the battery base project, charging centers and battery replacement stations all over the country have started construction.

This is still a bit of time wasted in the location selection, otherwise it will start a few days in advance.

Because there was not even a prototype of the building at the beginning of the construction, the local residents didn't know what was being built, and it was just an ordinary engineering project.

After all, for many cities, it is not surprising that covered construction sites can be seen everywhere.

And just when the future technology is in full swing, charging centers and battery replacement stations are deployed, Pingguo's sodium-ion battery mobile phone and Huawei's solid-state battery flagship phone have finally been launched and officially opened for sale.

Due to Ningwang New Energy's crazy marketing of its own sodium-ion batteries and the first significant price reduction of Pingguo, many users expressed their enthusiasm.

It was snapped up as soon as it went online.

The sales volume of Pingguo on the first day far exceeds that of Huawei's flagship phone.

Originally, due to the Xingyuan metal solid-state battery, Pingguo's situation became very embarrassing for a time, and it was even suppressed on the issue of production capacity allocation.

CEO Kulas was almost out of breath.

But at present, Pingguo mobile phone has once again stabilized its position in the industry with its sodium-ion battery, and its sales have greatly exceeded that of Huawei's flagship phone.

Kulas's mood also improved a lot.

-

"Boss, this is the sales data report submitted by the person in charge of the sub-regional market. It is already on the trend of breaking records."

"As for Huawei's flagship phone, which was launched at the same time as us, it was completely upset."

Liganife.

Pingguo spacecraft headquarters building.

In the office, Kuras took the sales report from Mel and read it carefully, with a happy look on his face the whole time.

It is completely different from the state of going to Binjiang City before.

After about a few minutes passed, I saw him slowly raise his gaze, and immediately said: "It seems that we chose to cooperate with Ningwang New Energy this time is very correct. Since we have achieved such a great success in the Asian market, Then let this mobile phone enter other markets around the world as soon as possible."

"It's the boss."

It was also the first time Mel had seen the boss so excited during this period of time, so naturally he didn't hesitate to face this order, and answered immediately.
