The world's richest man started by developing gutter oil

In fact, there is only one thing Liu Xiangshang wants to express. This thing is that time waits for no one. To put it simply, time equals money. How is it possible to want to go fast but not pay for it?

What's worrying now is that you, Tesla, are not my Lijin Group. If you want to use it, you can do your own research if you don't want to.

Since Liu Xiangshang talked to Han Chen last time, he has already figured out that the money he can make from selling equipment is only small money. Even if he makes 5 million from selling a piece of equipment, so what. He can't sell 10 units of this kind of equipment a year. Even if 5 units are sold, the profit will be only billion.

The problem is that these car companies will not purchase equipment again in 3-5 years after purchasing it. If it is considered as the time when manufacturers will not purchase equipment in the future, the average cost will only be a small amount of money per year.

If the company collects patent fees, the company can make money every year, and this income is much higher than if they sell equipment.

For example, if Tesla's annual sales are 300 billion U.S. dollars, 300% of 3% of the 5.4 billion sales is 30 million U.S. dollars. When converted into Softmei coins, that is 5 Softmei coins. If it is based on a profit of 6 million for one device, Calculated, this income is equivalent to them selling devices.

The problem is that an integrated die-casting machine cannot have such a high profit, and even if it does, it cannot make more than they charge patent fees.

Foreigners can use technology to choke our necks. Why don’t we choke their necks if we have the technology?

"Can your company provide us with two 2-ton integrated die-casting machines next year?" Max gritted his teeth and said.

The super factory invested by Tesla in Nevada will be launched in June next year. If they use integrated die-casting technology to produce cars, then they can seize the market as quickly as possible.

"No problem at all." Liu Xiangshang smiled.

"Mr. Liu, let's leave the contract matter to our subordinates." Max said.

"No problem." Liu Xiangshang grinned, showing a row of big white teeth.

Three o'clock in the afternoon.

Office of the President of Shenlan Group in Nantian Pioneer Park.

After the door light was turned off, Jiang Enzhu pushed open the office door and walked in. As soon as she entered the door, she smelled a very strange smell. She was very familiar with this smell. Needless to say, she also knew what was happening in the office.

"Mr. Han, Tesla's President Max wants to meet with you. Do you want to meet with him?" Jiang Enzhu said in smooth Mandarin.

During the past period of time, Jiang Enzhu has worked hard to learn Mandarin. Of course, her efforts have been rewarded accordingly. Her Mandarin can compete with the Chinese. If she didn't tell others, no one would know that she is a stick person.

"Just tell him that I don't have time to see him. If he wants to discuss business cooperation, just ask him to negotiate directly with the Ministry of Commerce." Han Chen said.

To put it bluntly, Max is not qualified to meet him now. Besides, he has already guessed why Max is looking for him. He just wants to obtain some technology from Deep Blue.

Is it possible that Max came to discuss financing with Han Chen?
Tesla has just received US$9.35 million in financing. Now Tesla is not short of money at all. How could it be possible to negotiate financing with him if he was not short of money? Besides, it is not cost-effective at all to raise money for Tesla at this time.

"I understand, then I'll go out and get busy." After Jiang Enzhu finished speaking, he blew a kiss to Han Chen.

Just as she was about to leave the office, Han Chen called her down.

"I have something I need you to do," Han Chen said.

Qianda Hotel, Luohu District, Shenzhen.

After Max left Li Jin, he went directly back to the hotel.

In the room at this moment, Max and Zhu Xiaotong, president of China Region, were discussing the details of Tesla’s operations in China.

"~Ling~Ling~Ling"

At this moment, Zhu Xiaotong's phone rang.

"Boss, it's someone from Shenlan who called back. I'll answer the call first." Zhu Xiaotong took out her phone and took a look at it before saying.

"Okay," Max said.

"Hello, Secretary Jiang." Zhu Xiaotong greeted after answering the phone.

"Mr. Zhu, our president does not have time to meet with Mr. Max. If Mr. Max wants to discuss business cooperation, he can directly contact our business department manager. Do you want me to send you the business department manager's phone number?" Jiang Enzhu asked.

"That's it. Then you can send me the phone number of the manager of the commerce department as a text message." Zhu Xiaotong said.

Zhu Xiaotong had already heard the meaning of Jiang Enzhu's words. Han Chen obviously didn't want to meet Max. If Han Chen was willing to meet Max, he would definitely not talk to him about business cooperation and go directly to the business manager.

"Okay, Mr. Zhu, I will send the number of the commercial department manager to your mobile phone later. If there is nothing else, I won't disturb your work." Jiang Enzhu said.

"Okay." Zhu Xiaotong replied.

After hanging up the phone, Zhu Xiaotong looked at Max with a bitter face.

"Zhu, what happened?" Max asked.

"Boss, the CEO of Deep Blue Group is not willing to meet with you. They said that if you want to discuss business cooperation, you can talk directly to their business manager." Zhu Xiaotong said.

"Since he doesn't want to see me, forget it. I'll leave the TL32 aluminum alloy matter to you to discuss. I'll fly back tomorrow morning." Max said.

Han Chen didn't want to see him, and he didn't want to impose too much. Besides, Han Chen's attitude was already very clear, and he couldn't ask for trouble anymore.

"Okay, Boss." Zhu Xiaotong replied.

September 2013, 7, China time.

After making an appointment, Zhu Xiaotong arrived at Nantian Pioneer Park at two o'clock in the afternoon. After arriving at Nantian Pioneer Park, Zhu Xiaotong was led by the staff to the Deep Blue Group. The lady at the front desk led Zhu Xiaotong to the Commerce Department reception room on the second floor.

As soon as Zhu Xiaotong entered the door, he saw a young man in a neat suit sitting on the sofa in the living room. The man was probably in his early thirties and slightly younger than him.

Xi Qingyun, the commercial department manager of Shenlan Group, immediately stood up and greeted Zhu Xiaotong with a smile. "Mr. Zhu, welcome to Shenlan Group. I am Xi Qingyun, the business manager of Shenlan Group." Xi Qingyun stretched out his hand and smiled.

"Hello, Manager Xi." Zhu Xiaotong shook hands with the other party and smiled.

Then the two of them sat down on the reception sofa, and the young lady at the front desk poured Zhu Xiaotong a glass of boiled water.

"I wonder what the purpose of Mr. Zhu's visit to Shenlan Group is?" Xi Qingyun asked bluntly.

"I came here this time to ask if your company licenses the synthesis technology of TL32 aluminum alloy?" Zhu Xiaotong asked.

"Mr. Zhu, our company only sells TL32 aluminum alloy finished aluminum ingots. TL32 aluminum alloy is our company's core technology. This technology is not licensed to outsiders. The price of TL32 aluminum ingots is 75% higher than the price of aluminum ingots on that day." Xi Qingyun said.

"So expensive?" Xi Qingyun was surprised after hearing the price.

"Mr. Zhu, the price of TL32 is only 75% more expensive than YH15 aluminum, but the strength of TL32 is nearly 75MPa higher than that of YH400 aluminum. Our pricing can be said to be very conscientious. You must know that every improvement in aluminum alloy 50 Pa is a step. If we price TL32 according to this step, the price of TL32 must be at least twice that of YH75," Xi Qingyun said.

"How many aluminum ingots can your company supply to us every month?" Zhu Xiaotong asked after thinking about it.

If compared like this, TL32 is indeed very affordable, even if shipping costs are added, it is cheaper than YH75 aluminum.

"We can provide you with up to 1 tons of TL32 every month." Xi Qingyun said.

After Han Chen obtained the TL32 aluminum technology, he immediately acquired an aluminum alloy smelting plant in Shenzhen with an annual production capacity of 15 tons.

"Thank you, Manager Xi, for your answer. The procurement matter will have to wait until next year. Our factory in the United States will not be established until next year. I have nothing to consult here. If it's nothing, I won't disturb Manager Xi." Zhu Xiaotong said with a smile.

"Mr. Zhu, our chairman wants to meet with you, but I don't know if you don't have time?" Xi Qingyun said with a smile.

"Why does your chairman want to see me?" Zhu Xiaotong asked curiously.

Han Chen wanted to meet Zhu Xiaotong on the spur of the moment. When Han Chen saw him, he wanted to recruit him to Shenlan. It must be said that Zhu Xiaotong is indeed a talented person. In his previous life, Tesla was able to develop smoothly in China thanks to Zhu Xiaotong.

"I'm not sure about this, so I don't know if you have time." Xi Qingyun said with a smile.

"Yes." Zhu Xiaotong nodded.

The boss of Shenlan Group, a man with a net worth of over 100 billion, wanted to see him. If he didn't meet, it would be a loss of face. Zhu Xiaotong didn't want to offend Han Chen, a billionaire.

Soon Zhu Xiaotong came to Han Chen's office under the guidance of Xi Qingyun.

Zhu Xiaotong was a little surprised when he saw Han Chen for the first time. There were rumors that the boss of Shenlan Group was very young. He didn't expect Han Chen to be so young.

"Mr. Han, this is Tesla China CEO Zhu Xiaotong, Mr. Zhu." Xi Qingyun introduced.

"Mr. Zhu, let's chat while drinking tea." Han Chen waved his hand to the chair opposite and said.

No matter how awesome Zhu Xiaotong was, he was just a wage earner in Han Chen's eyes, so Han Chen didn't stand up to greet him like he did with other people. After receiving Han Chen's invitation, Zhu Xiaotong sat directly opposite Han Chen.

"Mr. Han, you can't find time to meet our president, but you can find time to meet a little person like me. I wonder why Mr. Han wants to see me?" Zhu Xiaotong said with a smile.

"I think Mr. Zhu is a rare talent. Mr. Zhu's work at Tesla is a bit wasted. I wonder if Mr. Zhu is interested in coming to Deep Blue Automobile? If Mr. Zhu is willing to work at Deep Blue Automobile, the CEO of Deep Blue Automobile The position is yours," Han Chen said after pouring tea for Zhu Xiaotong.

Zhu Xiaotong felt a little flattered after hearing what Han Chen said. He didn't expect that Han Chen met him in person to poach him.

"Mr. Han, I'm just a small person and haven't made any dazzling achievements so far. I don't know where Mr. Han knew that I was a talent." Zhu Xiaotong picked up the tea cup and took a sip and said with a smile.

"Mr. Zhu, you should know that Deep Blue Direct Recruitment is the largest human resources company in China. There is a reason why Deep Blue Direct Recruitment can do so well. The think tank of Deep Blue Direct Recruitment has evaluated Mr. Zhu's resume. Mr. Zhu is a talented person. The final conclusion is the result given by the think tank," Han Chen said.

"That's it." Zhu Xiaotong said dubiously.

"Tesla is indeed a good company, and Max is also a visionary. Tesla will definitely become a great company, but Tesla is an American company, and Tesla's growth will only compress Chinese car companies. living space, which is not a good thing for domestic car companies.

If someone with good intentions uses righteousness to suppress Mr. Zhu, Mr. Zhu will definitely get a bad reputation, but it will be different when Mr. Zhu comes to Deep Blue Automobile. Mr. Zhu cannot move his family abroad by then.

If Mr. Zhu can make Deep Blue Automobile defeat BBA and become the world's number one car company, I believe Mr. Zhu's family is willing to open a separate page of family tree for Mr. Zhu. I wonder if Mr. Zhu is willing to join Deep Blue Automobile and work with us to create a company that can stand on the world's top A domestic car brand at the top of the world. "Han Chen said with a smile.

Han Chen's words silenced Zhu Xiaotong. If someone deliberately suppressed him, Han Chen was clearly threatening him in disguise.

In addition, Zhu Xiaotong also heard some unusual information from Han Chen. What Han Chen said was equivalent to being optimistic about the Tesla brand in disguise.

"Mr. Han thinks electric vehicles will replace fuel vehicles?" Zhu Xiaotong asked curiously.

“In recent years, the country has been supporting the development of photovoltaics, and green energy will become the mainstream energy source in the future. The pollution caused by fuel vehicles cannot be ignored, and the operating costs of fuel vehicles are much higher than that of electric vehicles. New energy vehicles will definitely replace them. Fuel vehicle.

I don’t know about other countries, but China is definitely the first country in the world to achieve the goal of eliminating fuel vehicles.

Because China has the most developed power grid system in the world, and China's electricity prices are the cheapest in the world, Chinese people have no reason to reject new energy vehicles. In addition, the country will also introduce policies to support new energy vehicles. "Han Chen picked up the teacup, took a sip and smiled.

"Mr. Han, does Deep Blue Motors develop new energy vehicles?" Zhu Xiaotong asked again.

"Deep Blue Motors not only develops new energy vehicles, but will have new energy vehicles on the market early next year. I dare say that as long as Deep Blue's new energy vehicles are on the market, Tesla's electric cars will no longer be sold in China, because Deep Blue's new energy vehicles will be crushed. Beat Tesla.

Our new energy vehicles can have a driving range of more than 700 kilometers, and they also support 800V ultra-high voltage charging technology. It only takes 0 minutes to fully charge from 100 to 10, and our pricing will be much lower than Tesla. I can’t think of any customer Reasons to reject Deep Blue Cars. "Han Chen said.

Zhu Xiaotong was stunned for a moment after hearing the parameters reported by Han Chen. Although she didn't know whether what Han Chen just said was true, the parameters Han Chen said were indeed better than Tesla.

If Deep Blue cars were cheaper than Tesla, I believe no one would buy Tesla electric cars.

Leaving aside the fact that some domestic people do not know the Tesla brand, the Deep Blue brand has long been a household name. I believe users will know which brand to choose without having to think about it. (End of chapter)
