Chapter 384 Countdown to the autumn conference, the launch of the Pilot 001 car


Chapter 384 Countdown to the Autumn Conference, the launch of the Pilot 001 car

In just a few days, Chen Xing personally traveled throughout the Dragon Kingdom to check the quality of new products from his own parts suppliers, and negotiated them in person Price of supply.

One advantage of "running in person" is that it can eliminate the situation of shoddy products and fake ones at the source.

If you wait for the supplier to bring the goods, there will be too much room for operation. The operation method of AB goods can be said to be common.

Many listed companies have been wiped out by AB goods.

What they brought over was A product, but what they actually used was AB product mixed with half. As for the so-called quality inspection department, the wallets of executives have long been bulging with kickbacks.

For Chen Xing, who has experienced entrepreneurial failure and rebirth, he is responsible for himself, the users and the product. Once he detects a problem, he can immediately cut off the supply chain.

"Mr. Chen comes often when he is free. We will definitely welcome your visit with the highest etiquette."

Jiangcheng General Electronics Company, over 70 years old, with gray temples Yang Shoude, the boss of the company, personally walked to the parking lot with his eyes full of gratitude.

As a company that supplies common components for electronic circuits such as resistors, capacitors, and inductors, its competitive pressure is too great.

In just six months, companies producing general components for electronic circuits have emerged like green onions, and many businessmen have taken a fancy to this piece of market cake with little technical content.

Especially in Shenzhen, the number of corresponding companies is too numerous to count.

Yang Shoude thought he was going to be abandoned by the Longxing Group. After all, Jiangcheng was separated from Shencheng by more than half of the Dragon Kingdom. It was not in line with conventional logic to seek the far away.

But what Yang Shoude didn't know was that in addition to his radical business expansion strategy, Chen Xing also had a conservative side.

There are indeed many suppliers of general components for electronic circuits that have sprung up, and they are relatively close to Longxing Group, but he does not have so much energy to identify whether they are qualified suppliers.

This is like academic qualifications and abilities. If all graduates from 985 colleges have roughly the same abilities on paper, if there are acquaintances there, Chen Xing will definitely be more willing to use acquaintances, because they know the basics and can make judgments easily.

Jiangcheng General Electronics has been supplying general components for electronic circuits to Longxing Technology Company since 2011. It has been four years and there has been no problem. Chen Xing has no reason to replace it.

Facing Yang Shoude's gratitude, Chen Xing responded with a smile: "I will come often when I have time, so I won't bother Mr. Yang. For general component supply, please contact Yang Minshuo."

"No problem."

Yang Shoude responded and opened the rear door for Chen Xing himself.

"Thank you very much, Mr. Chen. If I were a few decades younger, I would definitely be my eldest brother. You could be my big brother." Big brother, if I were to be this big brother, I would be destroying the etiquette and music and destroying the rules left by our ancestors."

Chen Xing responded politely.

As soon as he finished speaking, he glanced at the sky and continued: "Then I won't disturb Mr. Yang. We will meet again next time."

"Okay, Mr. Chen, walk slowly. Yang Shoude nodded, and when Chen Xing got into the back seat, he didn't forget to help close the door himself, leaving the driver Ye Yingjie a little at a loss.

He wondered if he had stood there for nothing?

You, Yang Shoude, open the door.

The car door is closed by you, Yang Shoude.

Isn’t this just a job grab?

As the driver appointed by Chen Xing to run the business, Ye Yingjie was not stupid. After Yang Shoude took away all his work, he quickly returned to the main driver's seat and fastened his seat belt, then skillfully started the car and drove out. Parking space.

Before leaving, Chen Xing did not forget to say hello to Yang Shoude: "Mr. Yang, let's go."

"Mr. Chen, go slowly."

Yang Shoude, together with all the senior executives He stood there and watched Chen Xing's vehicle leave.

As the vehicles completely disappeared from sight, they left one after another and returned to work.

"President, where are we going now?"

Ye Yingjie asked.

"Go directly to the airport. You can call the car rental agency later and ask them to drive the car back." Chen Xing responded.

Because they travel to so many places, they often choose to rent a car to travel.

Now that the supply of mobile phone parts is almost over, he should also go to Fengtian to see the progress of electric vehicles.

“Okay.”

Ye Yingjie responded.

Chen Xing, who was sitting in the back row, did not care anymore, but turned on his mobile phone and sent Yang Minshuo a WeChat message, asking him to contact Jiangcheng General Electronics Company and build the first Tianyu in the shortest possible time. X series.

......

"The equipment here will be out of service for maintenance starting today. In addition, you, the production team, will report to me a list of workers who are skilled in techniques and strict in speaking. They must be in To be implemented tonight..."

"Buzzing——"

Far away in Wancheng, Yang Minshuo, who was busy coordinating the new flagship production line, felt a tremor in his pocket.

The first time he noticed it, he said the last two words "in place", and then took out his mobile phone to check the information.

The several factory supervisors who followed him responded one after another with a superficial attitude.

“Understand the factory director.”

“We can definitely complete the task.”

"Don't worry, factory director. If you don't trust the workers, we can do it ourselves. We will never leak any news."

Except for Chen Xing, there are only a handful of people who know that the Tianyu X series is about to be assembled. Most are factory-end.

Secrecy is very important for the new flagship.

If the new machine parameters and brand positioning are leaked before it is warmed up, how will it build momentum in the future?

And as Yang Minshuo is the first person in charge of production, he is fully aware of Chen Xing's production plan and the entire layout.

At the beginning, he also thought that Chen Xing was just going to make the Tianyu X series, but after he was told everything, he realized that he still underestimated the man's courage and the company's R&D strength.

The autumn conference is only Tianyu?

No!

There is still a highlight!

After checking the WeChat message, Yang Minshuo quickly replied and at the same time looked at the phone screen at several factory supervisors:

"Let's all get busy. Before tonight, the list of workers must be submitted. Groups are also responsible for each group. If someone has a problem, the corresponding supervisor will get out. Do you hear me clearly?"

"It's clear. ”

“Listen clearly.”

The supervisors responded in unison.

They have finally climbed to this position with a monthly salary of more than 10,000 yuan, but they don’t want to lose their jobs.

After Yang Minshuo gave the instructions, these supervisors went to select the workers and asked them to sign confidentiality agreements.

The confidentiality agreement is very simple and rude. It directly states that if there is any leakage of confidential information before the release of the new flagship, the workers will be required to bear at least 1 million yuan in compensation. The specific amount needs further confirmation.

Why is it marked like this?

Very simple.

Many workers don’t understand the importance.

If it were simply written that "all losses caused by leaks will be borne by the leaker," they would have no concept of compensation.

But if it were written that the minimum compensation would be 1 million, then the words would be much stricter.

Although the consequences of leaking secrets are serious, in the face of possible "promotion opportunities" and the ultra-high hourly wage of 30 yuan per hour, workers at the Longxing production factory are eager to sign up.

Evening time.

One list after another was handed to Yang Minshuo.

After signing the confidentiality agreement, he began to arrange production by hand and dispersed the workers in the original production team.

"Yuan Yutao, Meng Min, Wang Meiyu..."

"These people have been in the job for a short time and are not skilled enough. They can be arranged to produce Longxing X3, so let's do it."
< br>"Zhang Haibo, Huang Jiaming, Lu Xiaoxiao..."

"This group of people is pretty good. They are all old employees of the Pineapple Company production line and can be arranged to the Geek X2 production line."

"Liang Weixiong, Jiang Youming, and Chen Yourong are among the first batch of workers at the Longxing Factory and have sufficient qualifications. It should be no problem to leave the production of the Bright X2 to them."

"Who should the Tianyu series be given to?"

Yang Minshuo thought carefully.

Although he is the "number one" in the Guancheng production factory, he knows very well that if he does not do well, he may be dismissed by Chen Xing at any time.

At present, he is approaching retirement and doesn't want to make any mistakes.

Chen Xing was also interested in Yang Minshuo's desire to retire safely, so he not only paid him five insurances and one fund, but also paid him a supplementary provident fund, which is the so-called five insurances and two funds.

Due to the slow start of Longguo and the slow start of enterprises, there are only a handful of enterprises and units that can pay supplementary provident funds.

Chen Xing's approach also made Yang Minshuo understand that as long as he works hard in the past two years, he will not have to worry about his retirement life. Not only will he have a high pension, but Longxing Group will also take care of him.

It is precisely because of this relationship that Yang Minshuo is particularly concerned about the factory.

Who doesn’t want to have a colorful life in old age, be able to travel everywhere, and earn tens of thousands of dollars a month?

It's all about getting what you need.

……

“Ding dong——”

“Dear passengers and friends, good evening, everyone, our plane is about to start descending and is preparing to land at [Xiantao International] Airport], please make sure your seat belts are fastened, put away the tray table, and adjust the seat back to an upright position.”

“You may feel it during the landing. Some slight bumps, this is normal, please don't panic, our crew will help you throughout the process, thank you for choosing our flight, and wish you a happy journey."

Sweet stewardess. The voice echoed in the cabin. After it was repeated three times in a row and again in English, Chen Xing, who was sitting in the first class cabin, clearly felt a turbulence.

Many people don’t like flying because of the uncertainty and turbulence.

It’s good that there is a radio announcement during the descent. If there is strong airflow during the flight, the turbulence produced will be enough to make passengers, including flight attendants, extremely frightened.

Ten thousand meters high in the air, you can’t even run away.

As the turbulence ended, the plane began to taxi on the airport runway. The stewardess in charge of one-to-one service also walked to Chen Xing, half-kneeling and asked:

"Mr. Chen, our plane will be stationary soon. You are our first-class passengers and airline VIP card holders. You can enjoy the airport shuttle service. You can take our shuttle bus to leave the airport later. . "Yes, I understand."

Chen Xing nodded.

As the plane came to a stop, Chen Xing also took Ye Yingjie off the plane in advance, took the airport VIP customer's exclusive pick-up vehicle to the exit, and followed the instructions to the pick-up hall.

Due to prior notice, the pick-up hall at this time was full of acquaintances.

There are Ren Guofei, CEO of Kunpeng Company, Rebus, CEO of Rice Company, Hua Ming, chief engineer of Pilot Automobile, and Song Weiguo, chief of Fengtian Military Region.

Since Song Weiguo came to pick him up in person, there were many "inch heads" staring at the seats and surroundings in the pick-up hall.

The moment Chen Xing and Ye Yingjie walked out of the security checkpoint, Ren Guofei greeted him enthusiastically: "We are looking forward to the stars and the moon, and finally we have arrived, Brother Chen."

"Chen You're fine, brother."

"President."

Rebus and Hua Ming both said hello.

"Well, long time no see, everyone." Chen Xing responded with a slight nod.

Song Weiguo did not remain silent, and said with a smile: "Mr. Chen, long time no see, but I'm almost missing you."

"It's already early in the morning, Chief Song can personally pick him up. "I'm really flattered." Chen Xing's tone and expression showed surprise.

As for the boss of the Fengtian Military Region, although the two of them had a close relationship, it was already early in the morning, and it really surprised Mr. Chen that he actually appeared here.

What’s more, the most important thing is that he didn’t even notify Song Weiguo that he was coming.

However, what Chen Xing didn't know was that after he signed the "Betting Agreement" with the Imperial Capital, everyone in the north with some connections knew that Chen Xing was coming to build electric vehicle infrastructure.

Song Weiguo is actually very curious, how dare Chen Xing come to the northern city for a trial?

As we all know, the power of lithium batteries will "freeze" in extremely cold weather, and the actual battery life will be greatly reduced.

To put it simply, lithium batteries in low-temperature environments will cause the chemical reaction inside the battery to slow down, and the resistance of the electrolyte solution to increase. The greater the resistance, the worse the lithium ion crossing performance. As the activity decreases, the discharge current will naturally become smaller.

To be more specific, it is that the viscosity of the electrolyte will increase in low temperature environments and may even partially solidify, which will directly lead to a decrease in the conductivity of the lithium-ion battery. At the same time, the compatibility between the electrolyte, the negative electrode, and the separator will also decrease. deterioration, further affecting the battery life of the lithium battery.

In addition, lithium will also precipitate from the negative electrode of lithium batteries in low-temperature environments. The precipitated metallic lithium reacts with the electrolyte, and the product deposition will increase the thickness of the solid electrolyte interface and affect the discharge performance of the battery.

This is why, for a mobile phone with a battery life of five hours in the south, its battery life is reduced by half an hour, or even one or two hours, when it comes to the north.

Temperature has a great impact on lithium batteries.

Song Weiguo also inquired about it. Tesla from Masik initially wanted to come to the Northeast because of its complete industrial system.

But not long after he landed, he was frightened by the sub-zero temperature, so he ran back to consider the long term and finally chose the Magic City.

How cold is it in Northeast China?

In October, when the south is covered in sweat and the underwear is wet, the weather in the north is already over ten degrees, and the nights are below six degrees, which shows how cold the winter can be.

But since Chen Xing dares to build charging piles in the north, he must have his own chips and the confidence to build.

The most intuitive thing is that the electrolyte solution will become viscous or even solidify in extremely cold weather. So what does that have to do with sulfide solid-state batteries?

It solidifies at room temperature!

Other things that lithium batteries are afraid of are the norm for solid-state batteries.

This is also the fundamental reason why Chen Xing dared to boast about spending 30 billion to build northern electric vehicle infrastructure in Haikou.

Does extreme cold affect battery performance?

It doesn’t exist!

Song Weiguo saw Chen Xing and was playing nice with him, and joked: "Okay, okay, stop pretending. I've received word that your pilot car is almost done, so it's inconvenient to let him go." Should I also open my eyes?"

Chen Xing did not answer him in a hurry, but looked at Hua Ming and said: "Chief Song inspected it personally, is there no problem with our car?"

" No problem."

Hua Ming nodded in response.

His assurance made Chen Xing's heart drop. He looked at Song Weiguo and said, "Then we can proceed without further delay?"

"It won't be too late!"

Song Weiguo also looked forward to it.

In the past, he was not optimistic about electric cars, but with Tesla's success in Shanghai, he realized that his position was small.

Cars powered by lithium batteries can completely outperform fuel vehicles of the same price range at room temperature, with hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of performance worth millions.

"Boss, please." Chen Xing glanced at Ren Guofei and Rebus.

Because of Hua Ming’s confirmation, he is now very confident.

As a red quality talent, his nod is equivalent to the completion of the project and even the conditions for testing on the road.

Everyone didn’t pause for a moment and went straight to the production factory of Linghang Car.

......

Ren Guofei has been at the car production plant during this period. After learning that Chen Xing was coming and Hua Ming informed him that he could do a road test, he took all precautions Prepare.

Longxing Heavy Industry's automobile production plant is divided into two parts, or two areas.

After entering the production park, there is a huge vehicle performance testing area, which is somewhat similar to the driving practice area in a driving school, except that there is no reverse parking or side parking, only bumpy roads, gravel roads, and narrow roads. Road, uphill and downhill, various simulated road sections.

Only when the vehicle passes all the tests can it be said to be officially put on the road for testing.

With the arrival of the two "big leaders" Chen Xing and Song Weiguo, all the outdoor lights in the factory testing area have been turned on, as if it was daytime.

In the parking area for test vehicles, two pilot cars have been parked.

They are in classic black and white color scheme. The front face design is very sharp. The diamond-shaped headlights are very oppressive. The left and right doors are recessed for wind resistance. The whole car feels very fashionable. .

After Chen Xing approached, he touched the front pillar of the car and asked Hua Ming, "Is this the electric car we produce?"

"Yes."

Hua Ming He nodded and responded: "This is our Linghang 001 car. Do you need me to introduce the specific parameters?"

"Tell me and listen."

Chen Xing is all ears.

Cars, like mobile phones, are within the scope of his "food, clothing, housing and transportation".

If you want to make money and make your company bigger and stronger, you must go for people's "food, clothing, housing and transportation".

In the two areas of "food and clothing", Chen Xing has achieved upstream control through his mobile phone.

Ordering takeout and online shopping are inseparable from mobile phones. Although online shopping can also be completed using computers, in the era of smart phones, who still uses computers to shop?

As long as they use Longxing mobile phones, Chen Xing can make money from the corresponding manufacturers.

Nowadays, among Meituan, Ele.me, and taxi-hailing app Didi, which one does not have to pay a listing fee to Longxing Group?

Don’t pay?

If you don’t submit it, it will not be put on the app store.

Perhaps many people don’t know who makes the most money on the Internet.

Why do Alibaba, Wangdong Platform, and Penguin make money?

They are both platforms.

Some people may be confused again. Alibaba and Wangdong platforms are shopping platforms, but why does Penguin say they are platforms?

This has to mention QQ.

QQ chat software is currently used by the most users, and is the "login account for games". This has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Does it have self-developed games?

Yes!

But not much!

For example, League of Legends, Dungeon Fighter, and CrossFire are all developed by game companies in other countries. Penguin is just a domestic agent, that is, a platform.

It is precisely because of its agency that it has become a domestic Internet giant.

Games don’t make money, it’s the platform that makes money, and the same is true in the mobile phone field. The platform doesn’t defraud users of money, it just charges the software company for listing it in the app store.

Now that "food and clothing" are making steady profits, in terms of "travel", if Chen Xing cannot be a platform, then he will end up personally.

With Chen Xing’s permission, Hua Ming also began to introduce the vehicle lane in detail:

“Of these two cars, one is equipped with a polymer semi-solid lithium battery, and the other is equipped with a sulfide full-state lithium battery. Solid-state lithium batteries are what we commonly call low-profile and high-profile. "

"Let’s talk about the low-profile first."

Hua Ming looked at the vehicle and continued: "Polymer semi-automatic. Although solid-state batteries are only semi-solid, they still maintain excellent cold resistance in extremely cold weather."

"Generally speaking, like ordinary lithium batteries, they work at sub-zero temperatures. The battery life will be directly halved. We have professional testing data on this, but our polymer solid-state battery works at subzero temperatures and can maintain 75% of the battery life at room temperature."

The words fell.

He looked at the pilot 001 behind him and continued: "As for the sulfide solid-state lithium battery, it is not affected at all, or can be said to be ignored."

"Ignored? ?”

Song Weiguo couldn't help but ask.

If it is so awesome, doesn’t it mean that it can be fully promoted in Northeast China?

He has found out that electric vehicles are much more powerful than fuel vehicles. If they can drive normally in extremely cold weather, there is no need to worry about the snow on the road.

"Yes." Hua Ming looked at Song Weiguo and explained: "Ordinary lithium batteries cannot guarantee battery life in extremely cold weather because the electrolyte solution is frozen. The electrolyte of our solid-state batteries is solid. So there is no chance of being frozen, and the sulfide is not afraid of extreme cold, only the humid environment.”

“Okay, okay!”

Song Weiguo couldn’t help but exclaim.

Not afraid of extreme cold, but afraid of humidity?

Isn’t this a car tailor-made for the Northeast region, or even the entire northern region?

Dragon Kingdom is dry in the north and hot and humid in the south. This is common sense that all primary school students know.

After saying "yes" three times in a row, Song Weiguo looked at Chen Xing and said: "This car is good, and the lithium battery is very good. No wonder Chen Xiaoyou dared to build charging piles in Northeast China."

"If Chief Song is satisfied, then I'll be relieved." Chen Xing responded with a smile, then looked at Hua Ming and said, "Chief Hua, in addition to its excellent cold resistance, what other highlights does our Pilot 001 have?"< br>
After a half-second pause, he continued: "It just so happens that Chief Song is here, he can check things for us and give us suggestions."
