Chapter 156 Forced to withdraw from the market 【Subscription】

I have to say that Ma Sien really planned well. Today, because of the launch of the Xingyuan smart car and the previous system restart accident, the Tesla smart driving car has lost its reputation and market influence.

Even if we continue to cultivate in this field, it is still difficult to compare with Xingyuan smart cars.

This is an indisputable fact.

Now that the cooperation with Google has ceased, there is no doubt that there is a great chance of winning by abandoning the development of driverless technology and competing with brands such as Lingguang Biati.

As long as Tesla installs solid-state power batteries at that time, its market share in the sub-region will not be affected.
At least as far as possible to ensure their own interests.

Speaking of which, Ma Sien is quite confident about his future technology trip, and believes that there is a high probability of reaching a cooperation between Tesla and Future Technology.

After all, in his opinion, Truss has shown enough sincerity.

Moreover, the use of solid-state power batteries by Tesla in the future will not affect the Xingyuan smart car market.

It's a pity that in Xu Lei's eyes, there is only a sneer indifferently.

If you had to describe it in a few words, it would be completely thinking about farts.

Leaving aside what Tesla did to Xingyuan smart cars before, there is still a certain gap in the production capacity of solid-state power batteries. Xu Lei is hesitating whether to cooperate with other domestic battery production companies and ask them to help replace them. manufactures solid-state batteries.

And when there is no shortage of solid-state batteries, why bother to sell them to Tesla, a competitor.

Isn't this asking for trouble for yourself?

What's more, Xu Lei is very interested in Tesla's production base in Modu, and wants to make it a new base for Xingyuan smart cars.

So how could he let Tesla continue to develop in the sub-regional market.

Of course, these things will definitely not be said directly. After thinking about it for a while, Xu Lei has a smile on his face, responding to Ma Sien's proposal of cooperation.

"I'm so sorry, Mr. Massne."

"Our solid-state power batteries don't have enough capacity to distribute to you."

"I'm afraid this cooperation will not be completed."

As Xu Lei's voice fell, Ma Sien's brows could be clearly seen frowning, as if he didn't expect Xu Lei to refuse so cleanly.

The key is that he can't find any faults.

The number of production bases of the main Xingyuan solid-state batteries is completely on the bright side, and the production capacity will naturally not increase inexplicably.

In particular, the layout of charging centers and battery replacement stations requires a large number of solid-state power batteries for backup. At this time, it is very reasonable not to provide extra batteries to Tesla.

But this is what Ma Sien came here for today, if he was dismissed by Xu Lei's words, it would be too embarrassing.

I think he is also a figure on the rich list anyway, and this time he came to Binjiang City from Saskatchewan to deal with this matter. If there is no good result, I am afraid that even if the news spreads, even if he talks about cooperation with other companies in the future, he will fail. into the downwind.

At this moment, Ma Sien's brain was running wildly, and soon he seemed to have made a decision, and his eyes gradually became firm.

"Our Tesla can purchase solid-state power batteries at a higher price. In addition, if Mr. Xu has other requirements, he can also directly raise them."

Yes.

In this case, the best way Ma Sien can think of is to increase the procurement budget.

Even if the solid-state power battery is won at a higher price, as long as it can solve the current crisis of Tesla, the price is worth it.

However, in the face of Ma Sien's so-called sincerity, Xu Lei did not answer directly, but instead raised a new topic.

"Mr. Massen, I actually have a better cooperation here. I wonder if you are interested?"

"Better cooperation..."

Hearing Xu Lei's words, Ma Sien was a little startled, not knowing the meaning of Xu Lei's words.

Although he only wanted to solve the battery problem in his heart and was not interested in other cooperation for the time being, but right now he was at his home court after all, so he could only follow the conversation: "I don't know what kind of cooperation it is?"

"It's simple."

"Our future technology is going to acquire your company's automobile production base in Shanghai, and we will directly help you solve this scruple."

"In this way, you can also withdraw from the sub-regional market with peace of mind."

"Not a good collaboration."

Xu Lei said these words with a very serious expression. Although there is a feeling that the strong are lending a helping hand to the weak, it does solve Tesla's concerns in a certain way.

Unfortunately, in the eyes of Ma Sien, Xu Lei's actions are completely humiliating, and he has no intention of cooperating with them at all.

The faces of the two sides were torn apart in an instant, and Ma Sien's face became ugly.

Those eyes seemed to want to eat Xu Lei.

Obviously angry to the extreme.

"According to what you said, stay on the front line in everything, Mr. Xu really wants to do everything right?"

Meeting Ma Sien's eyes, Xu Lei couldn't help laughing and crying. He didn't expect the other party to react so strongly to this matter.

But since it was his decision, it would definitely not be changed easily.

As for the threat contained in Ma Sien's words, Xu Lei didn't take it to heart at all.

Then he said with the same indifferent expression: "I'm just stating the facts. Please also hope that Mr. Masen can recognize the reality. You think that in the current situation, Tesla can still gain a firm foothold in the sub-regional market."

"To tell you the truth, we are the only ones in the whole country who can take over the automobile production base in Shanghai, so Mr. Ma Sien had better think carefully."

It can be said that there is no false information in Xu Lei's remarks. If you want to eat Tesla's super factory in Shanghai, you need at least tens of billions of funds.

There may be a lot of money that car brand companies can come up with, but they will never compete with future technologies unless they can guarantee that they will never get involved in the new energy car industry.

What's more, for most brands, the number of vehicles sold each year is limited, and there is no need to spend a lot of money to acquire such a super factory.

Otherwise, there will be overcapacity.

And Ma Sien is obviously aware of this fact, but he can't discuss it in detail at this time because of his face.

In the end, after dropping a sentence very angrily, he took his subordinates and left the place on the spot, obviously no longer in the mood to continue the conversation.

"The industry we are involved in is not just new energy vehicles, and this matter is far from over."

Xu Lei chose to ignore Ma Sien's last words, but when the figure of the other party was about to disappear from sight, he shouted again.

"Mr. Massen, if you change your mind, you can contact me at any time."

When only his own people were left in the reception room again, Jia Zhongjie came over from the side, and said with some concern: "Mr. Xu, it seems that the other party does not intend to give up the Super Factory in Shanghai. Planning the construction of a new production base?"

"Don't rush."

"I'm sure he'll change his mind."

Facing Jia Zhongjie's worries, Xu Lei immediately waved his hands to appease him, still firmly believing in his prediction.

The current situation facing Tesla is a foregone conclusion. Without the support of solid-state power batteries, whether they continue to develop smart cars or return to traditional new energy vehicles, they will not be able to reverse the situation and keep their market share.

In this case, they may be able to persist in a short period of time, but they will only face huge losses over time.

Sticking to a market that has no hope of changing the situation is not conducive to the healthy development of the company.

So in the end they will definitely choose to give up the sub-regional market, and as long as the focus of Tesla's business shifts, it will only be a matter of time before Future Technology wins this super factory.

When Jia Zhongjie heard Xu Lei say this, although he was still a little uneasy, he finally swallowed his words and chose to believe in Xu Lei's decision.

……

As Xu Lei expected, although Ma Sien flew back to Saskatchewan soon after leaving the Longfor High-tech Park, he handed over the full authority to Deng Wan, the head of the sub-region, to handle the follow-up matters.

Since Tesla failed to reach a cooperation with Future Technology, its sales continued to decline.

For this reason, under the order of the headquarters, Deng Wan officially announced that Tesla would withdraw from the sub-regional market and focus all its business on overseas markets.

And Tesla's super factory in Modu was finally sold to Future Technology at a price of about 400 billion.

After the announcement of this news, it can be said that it caused an uproar in the industry. No one thought that such a big change would take place in such a short period of time.

Tesla Motors not only voluntarily gave up the big cake of the sub-regional market, but also gave up the newly built super factory to others.

The whole thing can only be described in two words.

Fiasco.

But this is naturally a good thing to celebrate for future technology.

After Jia Zhongjie rushed to Shanghai to accept this super factory, in addition to adjusting the personnel structure and welfare benefits, Hu Xinren and his team will also be in place soon, and will spend a certain amount of time upgrading the production line.

When this super factory is back in operation, its production capacity will reach a terrifying more than 100 million vehicles.

At that time, it can basically meet the domestic market demand of Xingyuan smart cars.

It is also worth mentioning that as a large number of solid-state batteries are sold by major brand companies, the influence of exhibits in the museum has increased significantly, and it is about to reach [-] points.

But what surprised Xu Lei was that while he was waiting for the new exhibits to be unlocked, another major event happened in the semiconductor industry.

Sanxing Electronics and TSMC also announced that they have successfully overcome the production process of carbon-based chips. Although the cost of chips is slightly more expensive than traditional silicon-based chips, their performance exceeds that of 1-nanometer silicon-based chips.

After the news came out, in addition to Pingguo's first response, it also aroused heated discussions in China.

Many netizens are worried that the advent of carbon-based chips will cause the status of Godson Group to decline again and lose control of the semiconductor industry.

If by that time the domestic semiconductor industry returns to the previous embarrassing situation, it will inevitably affect many companies.
