Chapter 108: Occupying users’ minds
Before making a decision, after deliberation by the board of directors, the shareholder behind Guangjia Technology is State Investment Corporation, which will synchronize the news to relevant parties.
A few years ago, Chen Yuanguang's decision would have definitely been stopped, or at least made him think about it again.
But as America's intentions become clearer and clearer, China does not mind testing it through similar incidents.
This time the relevant departments found Chen Yuanguang and wanted to have a chat with him to see what he thought.
In order to keep up with Chen Yuanguang's thinking, they also specially found a technocrat - Lao Zhao.
Lao Wu, who had dealt with Chen Yuanguang before, was also there. As Chen Yuanguang's value became higher and higher, their attitude became more and more polite.
"Dr. Chen, we have no doubts about your strategic judgment. This is Guangjia Technology's own internal decision. You can bear the consequences of the decision.
Because of the follow-up Amerikan More extreme measures may be taken, and you need to make adequate plans.
But fortunately, we have gained sufficient experience in fighting in the past few years, and basically have a plan B for the measures that the White House may take.
If you have any difficulties at that time, you can always come to Lao Wu. For domestic high-quality enterprises like Guangjia Aerospace and Guangjia Technology, we will do everything we can to help you overcome the difficulties. ”
Old Zhao, who wears gold-rimmed glasses, gives people a gentle and gentle feeling. He keeps almost the same speaking speed, has no ups and downs in his intonation, and expresses without personal emotion, which gives Chen Yuanguang a kind of other person. It feels like AI.
Chen Yuanguang thought: It seems that Mr. Zhao is Lao Wu’s boss, and his level is higher.
“Okay, if I encounter difficulties, I will definitely be the first. Disturbing Mr. Wu for a while. "
Old Zhao then asked: "Dr. Chen, you just mentioned that similar to photovoltaic manufacturers, they adopt the method of selling services.
There are two technical difficulties mentioned in it. Are you sure about overcoming these two technical difficulties? ”
As a technocrat, Lao Zhao is more interested in this.
Chen Yuanguang didn’t want to tell the truth: “Because things happened suddenly, I’m not sure I can make a piezoelectric device that meets the requirements. crystal. ”
Old Zhao is very clear that any improvement in materials will have many applications. He is a researcher at the aviation port and has also dabbled in radar.
So he has a lot of interest in Chen Yuanguang. A small favor.
He knows very well that once the accuracy of the electrical energy-mechanical energy conversion of piezoelectric crystals is improved, it can be directly applied in the aerospace field and can also be used in the communications field.
Piezoelectric crystals can explode huge energy in a large number of fields.
So he is more concerned about this matter.
After hearing this, Lao Zhao was not too surprised, "The piezoelectric crystal is indeed difficult to optimize because it has a wide range of applications, so there should be more companies doing this.
Already optimized At a relatively mature stage, it is very difficult to make breakthroughs at this stage
You can try this direction, but don’t have high expectations or invest too much manpower and material resources. "
Chen Yuanguang glanced at the other party in surprise, and then put aside the topic: "I am quite confident about encrypted transmission. "
Old Zhao nodded: "My suggestion is that if this road can be opened, the manufacturing of the key raw material piezoelectric crystal should also be in your own hands, and do not disclose this part of the patent to the outside world.
Because once your entire ultrasonic converter is made public and the outside world knows how to do it, then your only business secret is this string of signals.
After the encrypted ciphertext is deciphered, others will no longer come to you to buy any services.
Together with piezoelectric crystals and encrypted transmission, walking on two legs will be more stable.
At least the application range of piezoelectric crystals is wide enough, and it can also bring sufficient benefits to Guangjia Technology. "
Before Chen Yuanguang could say anything, Lao Zhao continued: "And because piezoelectric crystals have a wide range of applications, they also involve sensitive fields such as radar, communications, and aerospace.
I do not recommend you to disclose the patent. "
Chen Yuanguang nodded after listening: "Okay, I understand. ”
Lao Zhao realized that Chen Yuanguang was still too young. Although he had full scientific research capabilities, he lacked a sense of technical sensitivity.
Not comprehensive enough.
What Lao Zhao didn't know was that Chen Yuanguang was confident enough in his cryptography. He didn't think anyone in this era could decipher his secret key.
"Dr. Chen, we are very optimistic about you. Both Guangjia Aerospace and Guangjia Technology have achieved outstanding results in the past two years.
If you need help, we will do our best to help you Solve difficulties.”
From the Chinese perspective, it is no exaggeration to describe Chen Yuanguang as a national treasure.
The combination of perovskite batteries and new energy vehicles can perfectly solve the problem of battery life anxiety, especially in places with sufficient sunlight such as Southeast Asia, Latin America, Africa, and Australia.
Chery, as the best-selling car brand in exports in the past two years, has already brought new energy vehicles equipped with new generation solar cells to Southeast Asia and Latin America for testing.
The test results are quite amazing. If calculated as an average, a new energy vehicle with a range of 600 kilometers can run 1,000 kilometers with the support of perovskite batteries.
If it is left outside for 24 hours, the battery life can be slightly increased.
This means that new energy vehicles can truly shake the status of fuel vehicles in these areas, and Huaguo electric vehicles will be even more powerful when going overseas.
Tesla, the only company that is expected to compete with domestically produced electric cars, is still unable to cooperate with Guangjia Aerospace under the control of Washington. It is a broken arm.
For China, the export of new energy can help bring them the most valuable foreign exchange reserves, and at the same time, it can attack the automobile industry of traditional automobile powers such as Neon, American, and Deutschland, killing two birds with one stone.
In the past few years, the big countries have competed on who can hold their breath better, who can endure it better, America's inflation, China's economic depression, who has an extra source of blood at this time, who wins the breath-holding contest The probability is even greater.
Human hibernation can also bring foreign exchange, but because it has not officially entered the market, and its effect on promoting employment is far less than that of the automobile industry.
This is not just the economic benefit brought by Chen Yuanguang, it also has a huge positive effect on political self-confidence.
It is rare to find a top-tier rich man who does not immigrate, has a company listed in the country, has no negative news, and has a life goal that makes people admire him.
With the superposition of various factors, Hua Guo has very high expectations for Chen Yuanguang, and the degree of freedom given to him is also very high.
I was chatting with Lao Zhao in the government building. There was nothing on the table except tea, not even some snacks.
In the evening, I met Lei Jun at a famous Cantonese restaurant in Shenhai in the Roosevelt Mansion on Shandong 1st Road in HP District.
Lei Jun considered that Chen Yuanguang was from Guangdong Province, so the Cantonese food he chose was a Cantonese restaurant that focused on traditional methods.
"Junior brother, come and sit down. This time it is a bad breath for our Chinese enterprises. We have been suffering for a long time."
Lei Jun stood up to greet Chen Yuanguang when he was a netizen. Followed by a few words of ridicule about brother comprador and Lenovo in the mobile phone industry.
When he was a student, he would definitely think that Lei Jun was joking. As a core partner of Qualcomm, a large number of suppliers are Amerikan Enterprises. Why is Lei Jun suffering? Now that he has accumulated a lot of practical and theoretical aspects of entrepreneurship, Chen Yuanguang understands what Lei Jun is suffering from. What he is suffering from is not Amerikan, but the huge uncertainty.
Even companies like Xiaomi will be included in the government list at the beginning of 2021. Although Xiaomi later filed a lawsuit in a Colombian court and removed itself from the list, this still reflects the huge uncertainty.
As long as you are a Chinese company, you may be targeted by them.
What is painful is this huge uncertainty.
After Chen Yuanguang shook hands with Lei Jun, "Brother, I just can't bear others to treat me like this."
The rocket has just been launched, and perovskites have not yet been shipped in large quantities. Liken's shale gas business may not have much impact.
OPEC didn't even stand up to speak out. Dubai and Longi Green Energy also signed a US$2 billion order for new generation solar cells. Americen stood up first and gave me a thumbs up.
I can't bear it, I don't have such high ambitions, I'm just young and energetic. "
Lei Jun puts a high hat on him. What Chen Yuanguang is most afraid of is that the old fox will make a move for you, put you on a stand, and then make a request that you can't refuse.
Chen Yuanguang uses a move to kill himself
"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. After Guangjia Technology announced that it would terminate cooperation and not enter the Amerikan market, this is the first time that there is so much news in our Luojia group, and everyone is very concerned about it. Excited.
They all expressed their admiration for being able to have sex with an old American in public. ”
Chen Yuanguang was also in the group. The group was all alumni of Jiangcheng University with social status. After Lei Jun came out that day, everyone in the group was @him.
He It is very clear that there must be people in this group of people who think he is too hasty, or who support Amerikan. There has never been a shortage of such people in China. It is just because Lei Jun has set the tone in advance, and those who come out later will not give up. Lei Jun and his face.
"Haha, this is not even talking about having sex with Lao Mei. At best, the cooperative relationship has broken down.
I didn’t think carefully when making this decision. In the end, I made my judgment based on my own intuition.
Lin Jia was very dissatisfied with my decision. He felt that I was too hasty and wanted to save face rather than honor. "Chen Yuanguang explained.
The two met alone for this meal, and Lin Jia did not come with him.
Lei Jun said with a smile: "I have been in business for so long, and there is no perfect decision for anyone. Decisions are always good and bad.
When you are making a decision, there are one, two, three, four, five, or even more options in front of you. After you make the decision, all you need to think about is how to make the best decision along the way. Don't think about anything else.
Now that I see such fierce competition in domestic new energy vehicles, I sometimes wonder if it would be better if Xiaomi did not make cars, but every time I stop this idea.
Instead of thinking about this, think about how to build a good car. ”
If there was Earth Online, Xiaomi’s car building should also be a legendary task. The main reason is that the tone was very high from the beginning. As for the last business in his life, Lei Jun himself is a legendary figure.
It felt like he had piled all the chips in his life on the poker table.
So Chen Yuanguang was very curious. After taking a sip of the cooked food on the table, he asked: "Yes, Xiaomi has never announced it. The car should be about three years old today.
How is the situation now? ”
Lei Jun is waiting for you to throw this aside: "The progress has been advancing according to our plan.
Because of the maturity of perovskite battery technology, we have many new ideas.
I plan to add a fully equipped Pro version to the originally planned versions, and the entire car will be equipped with HJT batteries, and then create a new concept car
Although it is a concept car, it is a walking car. A large-scale concept car.”
Lei Jun answered so quickly that Chen Yuanguang knew that the other party deliberately changed the topic like this, but he didn’t care anymore and just went with it:
"What is the concept?"
Lei Jun told Chen Yuanguang the concept of the entire car's constant temperature system.
Chen Yuanguang’s eyes lit up when he heard this. He has driven a car for so many years. He has also driven the Tesla that Musk gave him. He knows very well that this feature is an absolute plus for the target customer group. item.
The most high-end pro version of Xiaomi Auto, Chen Yuanguang estimates that it costs 300,000 no matter what. People who can afford a car with 300,000 yuan pursue personal feelings. This point of Xiaomi Auto’s design is very striking. meet the psychological expectations of this group of people.
“It’s a very good idea, because Guangjia Aerospace is the technology licensor. I have learned how other car companies do it, such as BYD, Chery, Xpeng, and Ideal. They all have more Use the HJT battery as a replenishing function.
To increase the battery life of electric trains, only you think of it as a functional optimization. ”
Chen Yuanguang felt that Lei Jun was really building the car with all his heart, until the other party showed him the photo of the prototype car.
He looked at the appearance and thought to himself, this is not the car I built underground in the community. Are Porsches often seen in garages?
“It’s pretty cool. "Chen Yuanguang said against his will.
Lei Jun said: "Yes, we asked the BMW designer to be the chief designer to do this.
The only drawback is that it looks a bit like a Porsche, but this is exactly the effect we want, so that users can buy a Porsche that handles better than a Porsche for a price of three to five million. "
Chen Yuanguang was speechless. I hope you really think so. Three to five million is a bit overestimating the consumption power of rice noodles.
He thought to himself, Lei Jun felt that the rice noodles passed by After ten years of growth, do you already have money?
But this is the other party’s decision, and the prototype car has been released, so it is impossible to change it.
It’s just a meal anyway. , Chen Yuanguang said: “It is good, the target customer group is clear, and it is the first Porsche for young people. ”
Lei Jun said: "What we want is to let consumers enjoy products with better quality than Porsche at less than half the price of Porsche."
Chen Yuanguang doesn't know whether this strategy will be successful. He has never Having made ToC products, he thought from another perspective, if he were a young man, would he spend three to five million to buy Xiaomi?
It is not impossible, because appearance is only one of the factors. If the quality is really good enough and the actual car has a high-end feel, it can also be considered.
Chen Yuanguang said: "I think it depends on how to convey this concept to consumers after it is launched and let them recognize it. What should this be called?
Oh, occupy the minds of consumers .”
Lei Jun thought to himself that junior brother is indeed a talent, and he knows so much about industries he has never been involved in:
"Junior brother, what you said is so right, so what I want is that I need your help."
Everyone can guess whether they will cooperate with Xiaomi, and if so in what way.
