The next day, inside the Jiangqi Group factory.
"Hey, you are now the boss. Your father provided the funds for our company. Speaking of which, I haven't visited your grandma for many years..." Zuo An took Chen Xi to visit while chatting about his parents.
He had received help from Jing Li and Chen Xi's grandfather in the past, and he often went to the sanatorium to pay New Year greetings. The relationship between the two families was quite good.
"Uncle Zuo, there are so many new energy vehicle brands on the market now, can you compete with others? Jiangxi Automobile's advantage is building trucks, and I guess a lot of money has been invested in this new energy vehicle." Chen Xi looked at it He said looking at the electric car in front of him that was the same as before.
"Competition must be pursued. If we don't do research while there are subsidies at this time, the cost of research later will be even higher. It is impossible for each car company to have a single model. JAC has no future if it only makes trucks. I Let me tell you secretly, the leaders at the last meeting said that several good new energy vehicle companies will be introduced to Xinlu in the future to transform Xinlu from a city of electrical appliances to a city of new energy vehicles..." Zuo An looked around. , secretly whispered a few words into Chen Xi's ear.
Hearing this, Chen Xi looked at the other party in surprise. This news is not false at all. In the future, Xinlu will become the country's number one new energy vehicle production base. I didn't expect Zuo An to know the news so soon. No wonder he wants to work hard to develop new products.
"iEV1 was launched last year. It is equipped with an electric motor with a maximum power of 27kW/200N·m. By matching a continuously variable transmission, it only takes 6 seconds to accelerate from standstill to 50km/h, and the maximum speed can reach 95km/h. It uses a higher density The lithium iron phosphate battery has a cruising range of more than 100km. At the same time, the battery has been optimized and tested in terms of waterproofness, safety management system and durability, and has reached the national mandatory standards..." Zuo An pointed in front of him. of a car is introduced.
"This was renovated by Tongyue. There seems to be no change in appearance, but there is an extra display screen in the interior."
"Huh? You have also studied our cars."
"Hahaha, I came to discuss business with you. Of course I need to understand it." Chen Xi laughed.
He is still very familiar with JAC models, having ordered a large number of them in his previous life.
"By the way, what kind of business did you come to me to discuss this time? If it's just to buy a car, I suggest you wait. To be honest, current new energy vehicles are not very practical. Look at the price of this car It is sold on the market for 110,000, but at the same price The performance of gasoline vehicles is better than this. Although there are policy subsidies, consumers have psychological doubts about these new products. I myself drive a gasoline vehicle, hahaha! "Zuo An doesn't want Chen Xi to waste money. As an old acquaintance, , or kindly advised.
"Understood, I also feel that there are many problems with new energy vehicles now, so I plan to do another thing first."
"What is that?"
"We just need to lay electric piles first. After all, only with electric piles can the car be charged."
"There are not many new energy vehicles on the road now. If we lay electric piles early, we will invest too much in a short period of time, and we will not even be able to get back the money. It is better to wait until the number of new energy vehicles is sufficient, and then start laying charging piles to make money." Zuo An analyzed the situation and gave a reasonable explanation.
Of course Chen Xi understood this, but Zuo An did not understand the policies and regulations that were about to be released above.
According to the situation in the near future, the official will encourage some companies to build electric piles and will provide good preferential policies. In this way, the cost of laying will be greatly reduced, and the land can be occupied everywhere, and there will be good profits in the later period, so there will be no loss at all.
"It doesn't matter. We plan to lay electric pile points first, and then temporarily use these points as paid parking lots and car washes. When the number of electric vehicles increases, they can be put into use directly, so that the electric piles will not be idle. ”
"But laying electric piles is very expensive. This is not a small sum of money..." Zuo An thought for a while and looked at Chen Xi suspiciously.
He knew that Chen Xi's family was in good condition, but there were so many cities and villages in the country that he couldn't imagine the number of charging stations if they were provided in every place.
"Well, I will choose a few places for pilot projects first, and then slowly lay them out, without any rush. I have calculated that a slow charging pile costs about more than a thousand yuan, and a fast charging pile costs about ten thousand or twenty thousand, and one point is at least There are also four charging piles, as well as site fees. Save the cost and keep it within 100,000. If you can provide me with charging piles at cost first, then I will purchase Jiangqi in bulk in the future. New energy vehicles..."
"What exactly do you want to do?"
"Engage in logistics, the logistics of new energy vehicles!" Chen Xi came to the office and expressed his thoughts.
In fact, it is a model similar to Tuao HailHop.
Not long ago, the mobile version of Baidu Maps was launched, and it also supports Android and iOS clients, so you can use it directly.
"Based on the current mileage of new energy vehicles, it is not very practical for cars to be used for logistics." After Zuo An digested the information Chen Xi said, he sent out another negative.
"Okay, of course the new energy vehicles on the market won't work. If you want to use them, use your 'special editions' which are unlisted models. Of course, I know the ropes in your industry. Now Jiangqi New Energy There is no fixed manufacturer of batteries used in cars, that is, there are multiple suppliers. In terms of battery version, the 'special edition' you produce can actually run higher kilometers, but this is far from what I want. ”
"Then you want to..."
"I have been abroad for many years, and I am very familiar with foreign battery manufacturers. There is a company that produces very good batteries, but their company faced bankruptcy due to poor management and other reasons. By coincidence, I have already acquired this company The company is preparing to develop new batteries with Jiangqi Automobile and Yongtai Technology..."
"I've heard of Yongtai Technology. It is a leader in the chemical industry and it also provides battery materials to many companies... I just don't know which battery manufacturer you are talking about..." Zuo An looked at Chen Xi doubtfully.
"This battery manufacturer specializes in lithium batteries. It mainly supplies small equipment such as beauty instruments. Do you know what this is?" Chen Xi said and took out a small oblate object from his clothes.
Zuo An picked it up and looked around but couldn't figure it out. Finally he shook his head and said, "What is this? It keeps vibrating after pressing the switch. Is it a massager?"
"No, it's a new face wash machine on the market. Look at this palm-sized thing, how long does the battery inside last?" Chen Xi picked up the face wash machine and pointed at the charging hole and asked.
"Isn't this thing just like an electric toothbrush? It runs out of power after a week or two at most."
"Hahaha, its battery durability is beyond your imagination. In normal standby mode, if you leave it for three to five years, you can still use it for about a few months after turning it on."
"How is it possible? There is no such thing in the world. The battery will also consume power when it is on standby. All batteries have self-discharge. The self-discharge rate of lithium-ion batteries is relatively low, but it will definitely deteriorate after three to five years. It's out of power." Zuo An shook his head in disbelief and gave Chen Xi some knowledge about lithium batteries.
"You'll know after you try it. I'll put this face wash machine here for you to use." Chen Xi pointed to the things on the table with a very confident expression on his face.
This is not Chen Xi's nonsense. He had used this thing in his previous life, and the battery durability and lifespan simply shocked his jaw.
However, this battery also has shortcomings, that is, the cost of manufacturing is too high, which is one of the reasons why their company went bankrupt.
A vibrating face wash device with no technical content actually costs thousands of dollars, and the most abundant material is this super battery.
As a result, after this facial cleanser came out, domestic copycat manufacturers followed suit one after another. By eliminating the cost of batteries, the price of the facial cleanser was directly driven down, and the beauty device company it operated also went bankrupt.
The market is like this. Your product is indeed better than others, but if consumers don’t buy it, no matter how good the product is, you won’t be able to make it.
After leaving JAC Group, Chen Xi got on a plane and headed straight to Beijing. Time was tight and he wanted to deploy everything before the project started.
We cannot do everything together as we did in our previous lives.
Since all those small projects were successfully completed after he fell down, it shows that this method is feasible. If you do it one by one, your chances of winning will be greatly increased when you connect them in series.
However, there are disadvantages to doing this.
That is, we cannot build momentum together. You can't allocate the cost to other shareholders, and you have to spend more money to do it yourself.
In the evening, a tired Chen Xi walked out of a factory in the suburbs of Huajing. He was a little tired after talking all day. I was about to go back to the hotel to rest, but unexpectedly my phone rang.
"Hmph, what does this woman want to do when she calls me suddenly?" Chen Xi snorted coldly after looking at the name Xu Yun displayed on the phone.
She said she wanted to cooperate with him before, but this woman turned around and went to Linxi. Now that she made such a call, she must have something to ask for.
In a hotel near the Youth Returned Association.
"Chen Xi, my father kindly talked about the marriage between our two families, but your father refused. Does he look down on our family?" Xu Yun, wearing a bathrobe, crossed her legs and pointed at the man in front of her.
"I don't even know what you are talking about." Chen Xi, holding a cigarette and puffing away smoke, said slowly.
Why was this woman so crazy at night?
Please...you...collect 6...9...books...!
I've been tired all day, why are you calling me here to say these incomprehensible words?
"Don't pretend you don't know. What you father and son did is really hurtful. I'm so beautiful, in good shape, gentle and virtuous, and I'm still the little princess of the group. You actually look down on me?" Xu Yuncong's father After hearing what happened, he almost fainted.
With so many men surrounding her, she was suddenly pushed out of her marriage. This made the arrogant Xu Yun unable to bear it.
"Haha, I can't understand what you just said. At most, your figure is up to standard. Look in the mirror and see how angry you are now. How can you talk about being gentle and virtuous?" Chen Xi pointed to the mirror not far away and almost said Laughed out loud.
This woman really knows how to put gold on her face. With her appearance, she looks like a future internet celebrity.
"You..."
"Is this what you're talking about when you call me here at night? Or do you want to seduce me?" Chen Xi deliberately looked at the other party's long legs exposed under the bathrobe.
Although this woman's appearance is not to his taste, she does have a good figure.
"Well, of course I have something important to ask you to come here this time. I heard that you went to the Overseas Returnees Association and asked about the accounts."
"Yes, you kept talking about cooperating with me before, and now you are guarding me like a thief. Do you want to take advantage of both sides? Hehehehe, Linxi is not a simple person. With your little thoughts, you want to Are you going to defeat us and become the president? I think it's better to save it." Chen Xi exposed the other party with one sentence, which made Xu Yun blush in embarrassment.
"Who... who said I was going to be the president... please don't frame me." Xu Yun is a little girl in her twenties after all. She was angered by Chen Xi's few words, and even her speech was a little awkward. .
"Why do you feel a little different today?" Chen Xi squinted his eyes and looked at the other person, Xu Yun was usually very arrogant. This is a hotel, and they are alone in the same room. According to the previous Xu Yun, she had long been sitting on his lap and talking dirty words.
"I...I am different. Don't you want to see the accounts of the Returned Association? I can show it to you." Xu Yun tried to calm down.
"Oh, I suddenly don't want to look anymore. I'll go back if there's nothing else to do. I'm a little tired after running all day!" Chen Xi stood up and stretched.
"You are such a weird person. I see that you are more concerned about the accounts, so I specially asked you to come here. Now you have to pat your butt and leave..."
"Then what else do you want? Do you want me to stay the night?" Looking at Xu Yun who suddenly sat on the bed, Chen Xi walked over with a smirk and deliberately moved closer to him.
Xu Yun was startled by Chen Xi's actions, and subconsciously fell on the bed. She raised her hands in panic to resist: "Chen Xi, please don't mess around."
However, the man on the bed ignored her and reached for her bathrobe.
"Hey, the secretary-general doesn't even know how to wear any clothes, and his insides are all exposed."
A few seconds later, Xu Yun felt a tightening in her waist. Her deliberately loosened bathrobe straps were tied up again, and a man's teasing voice could be heard in her ears.
"You...you..." Xu Yun pointed at Chen Xi and was speechless for a long time.
"Are you trying to say that you are a eunuch? A beauty like me has taken off my clothes and you still can't do it? Hahahaha, Xu Yun, it's better not to show off your little tricks and embarrass yourself." man. While laughing, he took out a small video camera from the tissue box on the bedside table.
"You...how did you know?" Xu Yun looked horrified.
"You're still playing this game with me, little girl." After Chen Xi deleted the images inside, he gently patted Xu Yun's face.
Li Yuqing had done this trick in his previous life. He had never been fooled before. How could he still discover it in this life?
"Hey, there are no cameras now. Let me see what you do." Chen Xi smiled evilly and lifted the woman's chin with his hand.
When Xu Yun saw this, the panic on her face disappeared instantly. Instead, she elegantly assumed a sexy pose on the bed and stretched out her feet to rub against him.
The next second, Chen Xi ripped off the other party's bathrobe.
Looking at the woman's naked body, Chen Xi raised his lips and said, "What a slut. She's not wearing anything underneath."
Just when she thought something would happen with the other party, Xu Yun felt her hands and feet tightening, and she was actually tied up.
"Huh, just stay here." Chen Xi stretched out, took off his clothes and walked towards the bathroom.
"Let me go quickly, don't be so rude, it's not like I don't want to." Xu Yun shouted charmingly from the bed.
"There's so much nonsense." Chen Xi picked up the socks on the ground and stuffed them into the woman's mouth.
Xu Yun on the bed reacted violently in an instant, and her body twisted violently. She didn't know whether she was angry or smelly. (End of chapter)
