The most intuitive impression of a car on consumers is the body design, but the most intuitive first impression on the driver is the settings of the center console.
The curling screen is a big gimmick, but the display quality of Jiuzhou Technology's OLED screen surpasses the top Korean and LED screens in the industry. This is the most important point.
A group of senior executives discussed and discussed, and the specific content of the meeting was unknown to outsiders, but in the end a certain vice president stood up.
“The current situation is volatile and strange. If we don’t seek innovation and change, we can only wait to be abandoned by the times.
Xia Wei also has his own Hongmeng system, but Mr. Ren can also open up permissions to the Gonggong system, so why can't we?
Everything must be independent, but the data of Jiuzhou Technology System is processed by Jiulong in the Cloud, and Dong Qi also promised that if you are not willing to put it in Jiulong in the Cloud, all cloud data can still be processed by ourselves.
Why can't we choose some car series or develop two models of a car series, one equipped with Jiuzhou Technology's supporting technology, and the other using our own technology.
If there are gaps, we can also learn from their strengths. "
In the end, the cooperation intention was reached.
BYD's senior management team is basically all top-notch people or high-achieving students. They have been in the world for so many years, but they can't see the future clearly and can't make decisions about priorities.
And the most important thing is to cooperate selectively and strengthen yourself. After all, the winner is the one who laughs in the end.
Everyone thought a lot about this matter, but they didn't know it.
"Left or right is just a casual move. Zhang Tianhao and the others used to first explore the situation and see where they can learn from each other's strengths and offset their weaknesses, and secondly, through in-depth cooperation, check the strength of some of BYAT's technical capabilities.
The battery is actually not troublesome. The entire mechanical system including the motor is the most troublesome, and BYD's technical capabilities in this area may not necessarily be as strong as ours. "
Boss Gu, who returned to the headquarters, said this while chatting with Vice President Dong in the office.
Dong Qi glanced at Gu Qing, sorted out the information in his hand and said: "Currently, domestic pure electric vehicles have become representatives of new energy. Motors, batteries, and electronic control systems are the three important components of pure electric trucks.
BYD's new energy technology has become increasingly mature. Do we have enough technical reserves? "
It's not that he doesn't trust him, but that he really doesn't know much about technical reserves.
He has always followed the rules and done things within his authority.
In terms of financial expenditures, the R&D department is now an independent system. As long as it asks for money, all purchasing and consumption data will be given directly to Gu Qing, and no detailed reports will be given to the Finance Department.
As for patent applications, some are through special channels for the military and cannot be accessed by outsiders. Moreover, there are many technologies within Jiuzhou Technology that do not apply for patents.
According to what Gu said: To apply for a patent, you need to show the technical details? Why?
Therefore, for technologies with high technical difficulty, Gu Qing is probably the only one who knows the technical reserves of Jiuzhou Technology.
Dong Qi talked about technical reserves, and Gu Qing pursed his lips and smiled.
Which company can do more than him in this regard?
“If you talk about the technical reserves in other industries, then I may not have much, but for battery energy, I have some.
Although Tesla and BYD are competing fiercely this year, they both have problems with the direction of their batteries.
Ternary lithium batteries are generally not as safe as lithium iron phosphate batteries, but the energy density of lithium iron phosphate batteries is also unsatisfactory.
I believe that as production capacity increases and users increase, problems will arise if there are too many test products.
For example, if Tesla uses ternary lithium batteries, fires will definitely occur.
BYD uses blade batteries. If it does not accept our technical adjustments, it will definitely increase energy consumption in some areas. There are also too many customized parts. Some cars may one day have airbags that cannot be deployed. accident.
In fact, this is also a problem that I don’t want to get involved in this industry.
The industrial clusters and industrial chains of automobiles and new energy vehicles are too complex, and various parts manufacturers and systems coordinate these. Many of them are heavy assets. Although our company has some small money, it is still a drop in the bucket if we invest in this big project. "
fo
A drop in the bucket can help the boss.
Vice President Dong was noncommittal. The young boss in front of him had spent as much money in the semiconductor industry as those companies that were transitioning to new energy vehicles. Moreover, the company had recently built large factories and purchased equipment that cost a lot.
"It's good that you know that we don't have much liquidity in our accounts recently."
When Boss Gu heard this, his first reaction was that it was impossible.
Although Jiuzhou Technology has not gone public for financing, its cash flow is not small.
The titanium-tantalum department has two big money-making businesses: bionic mechanical prostheses and titanium-tantalum home appliances.
The semiconductor department has wafer business and lithography machine light source business, which can fully support itself.
Of course, the food and beverage factory of Jiuzhou Technology has the largest profit margin now.
A 100ml bottle of Taoyao costs one hundred Xia yuan, but the cost is less than ten yuan.
This is still under the condition that the official does not engage in scalping. At present, a bottle of Taoyao sold by scalpers starts at 200 Xia Yuan. If foreign users want to buy it, it depends on the region. If it is in a country where Jiuzhou Technology has cooperation, a bottle of Taoyao will cost 30 yuan. About a hundred. If it is somewhere without any cooperation, it is difficult to estimate.
Because scalpers can’t grab many bottles.
Under Xuanwu's deliberate control, although Taoyao's monthly production capacity is increasing, it has always maintained that 90% of the orders are given to users who really need it, and about 5% of the share is given to scalpers.
As for the remaining five percent?
It is necessary to send gifts to elders and open up relationships.
So after making so much money, where did the money go?
Dong Qi handed Gu Qing a document.
"To expand talent recruitment, the basic salary you give to ordinary researchers has now increased to 15,000. If you exclude highly educated and senior engineers, the monthly basic salary of the cleaning lady in our company starts at 6,000.
There is no cost to build a factory and purchase equipment. However, the factory drawings you gave us are too demanding. A factory costs tens of millions. There are also some sensitive, high-precision equipment that we need to buy at a high price.
Expanding foreign markets, building local warehousing and maintenance centers, recruiting employees, and providing services to users are all foreign exchange spent.
And you said that a sum of money should be set aside to invest in energy projects. I have set aside 5 billion. In addition to the company's administrative and other business expenses, employees' salaries, etc., I have to set aside more than half a year.
Adding it all up, the current working capital that can be used is only about one billion. Of course, we still make a profit every month, but we also need to pay our suppliers on time. "
After flipping through the documents and listening to Dong Qi's detailed calculation of projects, Gu Qing patted Vice President Dong on the shoulder.
"I can rest assured that you will take care of the accounts, and the money will be enough."
What is this enough for? This is simply very rich, at the level of a wealthy businessman.
