Chapter 120 The reaction of new energy vehicle companies

“Me?” Lin Jia asked.

Chen Yuanguang nodded: "Yes, you have always liked cars. I think you are not that interested in doing human resources and comprehensive work in the light armor department.

Would you like to try it? A new track?

Give me a new choice in life.”

Lin Jia put aside the topic: "To be honest, I have never understood why you don't like driving?

It's just as strange as boys not liking straight sticks. Human preference for tools should not be innate. Is it?

The development of people from the beginning of their birth to this point is fundamentally due to their proficiency in tools.

In modern society, for most people, The car is the most complex tool they have access to. Controlling a car will make your speed a qualitative leap.

This kind of driving pleasure seems to have been absent from you since I first met you.

At that time, I thought it was because I didn’t have a car, so I insisted that I didn’t like it. Later, we had known each other for so many years, from Jiangda to New York. You were not short of money at that time, so you bought a second-hand Volkswagen scooter.

Including the launch of Guangjia Technology in the past few years, it stands to reason that normal young men will buy themselves luxury cars. If the relevant parties hadn’t told you not to drive a Tesla, you would probably have driven a Musk to China. The Tesla that the country gave you.

Tell me, why do you just don’t like driving? "

Chen Yuanguang only felt that there were so many reasons in the world, "Because of the trouble, I think driving is an energy-consuming thing. My energy is very precious and I don't want to be wasted on it."

Look, we are on the road now, you have to pay attention to the road conditions at all times, and I can rest and enjoy the surrounding scenery. ”

Chen Yuanguang continued: "People's preference for tools depends on the situation. How many people like to work with computers?

Everyone likes computers because of their entertainment.

I don't have time to enjoy what is called He has no interest in driving, so he is naturally not interested in cars.”

Chen Yuanguang knew Lin Jia very well and knew that what he said was actually a promise: “What position do you want to start working at Xiaomi?”
< br>Lin Jia glanced at him: "Guangjia Technology is just a small shareholder, you act like you drive the Xiaomi car.

We can definitely only start with external directors first. As the external directors of Guangjia Technology, we will see if there are any other practical positions available later.

I will definitely not be left to do things like personnel and finance. I have not proven myself in terms of marketing strategies. It is difficult. Just take it one step at a time. ”

Lin Jia is indeed more interested in new energy vehicles. In contrast, at Guangjia Aerospace, she has to face a lot of technical terms every day and go out to discuss cooperation and mergers and acquisitions with other companies or research institutes. She spent a lot of time preparing in advance.

Even though she went to Jiaotong University to take classes, she still felt exhausted. The Huaguo Compound Eye Project was finally located in Chongqing

As a representative of Guangjia Aerospace, Lin Jia has traveled to Yudu many times to inspect the progress of this project. To be honest, she does not understand what phased array radar is at all, how to design it to have wider coverage, and how to achieve higher accuracy.

Even if she had done her homework in advance, she still didn’t know whether the other party was trying to trick her. She had to rely on the engineers of Guangjia Technology to make a judgment.

This is not good for Lin Jia. It feels like things are not under her control.

Guangjia Technology also has similar problems. For example, when recruiting mid-level and above personnel, she cannot judge whether the candidates recommended by other executives look suitable or are really suitable.

The threshold for building a car is much lower, and it is still an electric car. This is partly because she is more interested in this.

Chen Yuanguang saw Lin Jia's excited look, "You can divide some of your work in the future. It's okay for Guangjia Aerospace. It has been in the exploration stage. Currently, only the R&D and market structures have relatively little demand for senior executives.

You can throw this part out. ”

Chen Yuanguang is very open-minded. There is no shortage of senior executives in Guangjia Aerospace, and some executives from the urban investment companies behind them want to come to Guangjia Aerospace to gain experience. of.

As long as he controls the direction of his research, there will be no problems.

On the contrary, for a listed company like Guangjia Technology, Chen Yuanguang, in addition to investing in human hibernation technology, relies entirely on the company's own hematopoietic ability and will have higher management requirements.

After hearing this, Lin Jia nodded silently: "We will discuss it carefully later on how to divide the work.

I can also hold three positions at the beginning, because the initial responsibilities of the foreign director are very few, and the maximum His responsibilities are to hold meetings and board meetings."

Lin Jia continued: "So the handover of work can be a slow process, hand it over slowly."

As Guang Jia. After Science and Technology invested in Xiaomi Motors and two Jiangnan University alumni Chen Yuanguang and Lei Jun joined forces to build cars, new energy car companies began to make efforts one after another.

The first to take action was Xpeng. Xpeng broadcast its MPV X9, which has not yet been officially launched, on Douyin.

Due to the production of a new generation of solar cells, Xpeng X9 also provides the option of optional perovskite cells.

At this time, it has slowly entered early summer, and the sunshine is very good. Xiaopeng deliberately chose this time to broadcast the X9 long-distance driving.

“This time I mainly show you the battery life function of Xpeng X9, which is equipped with new perovskite battery technology.

This battery is optional and can be installed on the roof of the car. , you can also choose to install it on the body, or of course, you can choose to wrap the entire car with perovskite batteries.

This is an optional part. If perovskite is installed, the motor will also be modified.

Let’s briefly talk about the advantages. The roof of the car is equipped with a perovskite battery alone, which can add 60 kilometers of endurance to the X9 under normal daytime lighting in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai for 8 hours.

If it is equipped with a full body, it can increase the battery life by 90 kilometers.

Its own battery life is 640 kilometers, which is equivalent to an additional 60 to 90 kilometers of perovskite battery as energy supplement.

What’s even more awesome about perovskite batteries is that they can replenish energy even in low-light environments at night.

This function supplements the battery life secondly, and more importantly, it fundamentally solves the range anxiety of electric vehicles. "Xpeng executives were sitting in the car talking.

Because the Xpeng X9 is this year’s first new energy vehicle equipped with a perovskite battery, the Douyin live broadcast room has a particularly large audience, with more than 100,000 people online within half an hour of the broadcast.

Everyone is most curious about perovskite batteries. This technology has been promoted by various media since its development at the end of last year.

“Look, everyone, our current battery level is 5%, and a red alarm has been issued. Let us find a charging pile to charge as soon as possible.

It is now five o’clock in the afternoon. We will charge the battery today. The car was parked in a nearby open-air parking lot, and then we will meet in the live broadcast room at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning. Let's see the energy replenishment effect of the perovskite battery from 5 o'clock to tomorrow morning."

Xpeng also said. It left a suspense.

At around 8 o'clock the next morning, the live broadcast room was full of people shouting to open the door. At 8:55, Xpeng's executives appeared in the live broadcast room:

"Now let me show you what's on my phone." According to the data, from 5 o'clock yesterday to now, a total of 8% of the electricity has been charged, and the 8% of the electricity can run more than 40 kilometers.

How can you forget to charge it on the roadside and let it stop? Can I drive to the nearest open-air parking lot in two hours?

And then drive home the next day? Is there no need to worry about battery life? ”


This technology is not a devastating blow to oil trucks, but it can also be considered as breaking their muscles and bones.

Originally, the biggest advantage of gasoline vehicles for ordinary consumers was that they had no worries about battery life. Now, new energy vehicles have even less worries about battery life than you do.

If you run out of gas, you can't just drop gas from the sky, but if you run out of battery, you can really charge the tram from the sky.

“Although the Xpeng X9 is purely electric, it can fundamentally solve everyone’s battery life anxiety than the extended-range model.

In addition, we have to experience another aspect of it, as you can see The current display shows 13% power. Let’s drive to the nearest charging station and increase the power to 80% first.”

During the charging process, they pointed the camera at the display screen to see the charging efficiency: "You can see that the DC fast charging time is 20 minutes, and it can charge from 10% to 80% in 20 minutes.

Because of the calcium The energy replenishment effect of titanium ore batteries is that the battery does not need to be preheated like a traditional tram during the charging process. It can be charged directly. "

"We are going to start charging from Shenhai today. The whole journey to Jiaxing is about 98 kilometers. You can see our battery consumption.”

“In order to adapt to the perovskite battery, our motor has been treated as a two-wheel drive. When the battery's power reaches the 80% line, we will give priority to using the power of this battery. After using 10%, we will switch to the regular battery, and then we will switch back after the battery associated with the perovskite battery is fully charged. .

This ensures maximum utilization of electrical energy. ”

“It took us one and a half hours to drive from Shenhai to Jiaxing. The distance is about 98 kilometers. In fact, we only used 12% of the electricity, which was 3% lower than the theoretical value of 15%. , this is the energy supplement effect of perovskite batteries. ”

This online live broadcast, from the beginning to the end, the barrage filled the screen with awesomeness.

“Xpeng is awesome”

“Really delicious”


“I’ve seen a lot of overestimation of battery life, but this is the first time I’ve seen underestimation of battery life.”

“The oil truck is finished. Do oil trucks still have room to survive in the face of perovskite batteries?”

No. Xpeng's stock price surged 10% in the next two days, and the capital market voted with its feet.

But not only Xpeng is rising, but other new energy vehicles are also rising. With the support of perovskite batteries, the capital market unanimously believes that this will accelerate the containment of traditional fuel vehicles by new energy vehicles.

Various car critics came out to explain their understanding of this:

"I would say this technology is awesome this time. It is not the technology of Xiaopeng. It is the technology that Guangjia Aerospace has licensed to every Chinese company.

Perovskite battery, it is similar to Compared with traditional crystalline silicon cells, there are four layers, which greatly increases its photoelectric conversion efficiency, resulting in such awesome effects as we saw in the live broadcast.

I don’t think Tesla can get it. With the authorization of Guangjia Aerospace, their market will be over. This technology will become standard in the future. If you don't have it, I think it's impossible to still want it in the price range of 200,000 to 300,000.

Especially in this market. On the highway, other cars parked there have solar energy that keeps running, but trams without this technology can only watch the battery drain away little by little.

Can you bear this?
< br>

I still hold the same view that this technology is very critical, whether it is the showdown between electric cars and gasoline cars, or the encirclement and suppression of Tesla by domestic new energy sources.

If I were Musk, I would have to go to Washington overnight to complain. If we don’t give the green light to Light Armor Aerospace, we will be doomed. "

"After watching the live broadcast of Xpeng X9, I am waiting for its release. This should be this year's blockbuster product, the first electric car that truly has no battery life anxiety.

I just want to know when this technology will be transferred to the P7 model. The MPV is still too big. ”

Li Bin, the founder of Weilai, was also asked crazy questions during the Douyin live broadcast.

"Will we be equipped with perovskite battery technology? Definitely, definitely. We have been in contact with Guangjia Aerospace since the technology was developed at the end of last year, including getting the authorization last year.

At that time, it was a batch of It’s true that Guangshen is a very good person in the licensing contract signed by all the car companies. He will not give it to anyone or not because of the technology monopoly.”

“As long as it is a Chinese car company, he has given the license. , the price is also very reasonable, I think the price is quite reasonable, after all, technology research and development is also a large investment.”

“I can’t say how much it costs, because it involves a confidentiality agreement, so I can’t say much. . ”

“Nio’s new car after its facelift this year will definitely give you the option of perovskite batteries. ”

“Have I watched the live broadcast of Xpeng X9? How does NIO’s technology compare with that of Xiaopeng? I have watched it, of course I have. Our vice president called me to watch it on the day of the live broadcast.

Just referring to the application of perovskite battery technology in new energy vehicles, I don’t think we are weaker than Xpeng.

Our design logic for Sandian is similar to that of Xpeng.”

“But there is one thing, because the Xpeng X9 is an MPV, so its solar cell area is larger. Ours is an SUV and a car, and the solar cell area it can support is smaller. It can also supplement energy and increase battery life. But it’s not as obvious as MPV.”

“Can you tell me what other black technologies will come from Xiaomi and Guangjia Aerospace’s joint venture? I really don’t know about this. I believe that executives from other companies in the industry should. Everyone wants to know, everyone is curious

Like you, I am very curious about what technology Guangshen will provide to Xiaomi. "

"Are you scared? Of course we are not afraid. Weilai has grown for so many years, and we will not be afraid because of one person. ”

“Actually, there is one thing I can tell you. This year, the power swap stations built by NIO in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai will all use new perovskite batteries.

We have always wanted to use photovoltaic technology to make full use of the space in the power swap station.

Now that there is a new generation of perovskite batteries, we have signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Longi. The subsequent power swap stations will directly install the latest generation of hybrid passivated back contact batteries on top, which will be used. Perovskite coating.

Yes, the cost is higher, but the benefits are also greater. ”

“Is cash flow still healthy? NIO's cash flow is very healthy, and car owners don't have to worry about us running away.

Including building battery swap stations, we have been looking for partners, including chatting with Guangjia Technology. They are very interested in building a new generation of battery swap stations. ”

Li Bin’s live broadcast is very easy-going, and he can answer almost every question raised by netizens.

Weilai is a rare high-end brand in the tram, and is known for its losses. According to the financial report, every time a Weilai is sold, it loses hundreds of thousands.

Some netizens joked that NIO is a patriotic brand and the Luckin of new energy, cutting off Wall Street’s leeks to subsidize Chinese consumers.

The founder of NIO is live broadcasting on Douyin, while Xiaopeng has executives live broadcast the black technology of X9’s battery life on Douyin. The main battlefield of the ideal founder is on Weibo.

Ideal himself has been a big V on Weibo many years ago. He posted several posts on Weibo:

“The new generation of solar technology is another subversion of new energy vehicles. , its effect is limited but it can change consumers' perceptions. From today on, consumers will no longer be anxious about the range of new energy vehicles.

So the ideal future will definitely develop towards pure electric vehicles, and there will definitely be. Pure electric models, including the MPV we will launch early next year, will be pure electric and equipped with new generation solar cell technology.”

"We have a competitive relationship with Xiaopeng. We are both rivals and friends. There is competition between us, but it is not a zero-sum game. We are going to grab the joint venture brand market together."

In addition to Wei Xiaoli In addition, other new energy car companies have also stated that they have authorization and will launch models equipped with next-generation perovskite battery technology in the future.

For a time, perovskite has become the consensus among consumers of new energy vehicles, and it is high-end enough to carry this thing.

This has seriously affected Tesla's sales. As an American company, it is not that Guangjia Aerospace does not grant Tesla authorization, but that the White House does not allow Tesla to cooperate with Guangjia Aerospace.

In just two weeks, Tesla sales dropped by 25%.

Of course, sales of almost all new energy vehicles in this price range are declining.

Because potential consumers are waiting and watching, everyone wants to wait until new energy vehicles equipped with perovskite battery technology are released before buying.

It’s just that Tesla’s decline is particularly fierce.

At this time, Chinese consumers realized that Tesla was an American brand and it could not obtain authorization.

Chinese consumers have a strange phenomenon. Most of the time, they don’t care about domestic brands or foreign brands. They give priority to cost-effectiveness.

But when foreign brands are able to replace domestic brands in terms of quality, these foreign brands will decline off a cliff and suddenly disappear.

Everyone bought Tesla before because they had no choice. They didn’t care whether it was an American brand or a Chinese brand. When you can’t use China’s most advanced battery technology, China’s consumption Consumers will become suspicious and resist the entire brand.

Tesla’s sales in China have always been stable. After falling sharply for two consecutive weeks, the president of Greater China flew to California overnight to report to Musk.

Musk had a big head after hearing this. As a technology geek, he knew from the first day the news about perovskite batteries came out that this thing would have a huge impact on the electric vehicle market.

He became even more determined after getting the experimental data of perovskite batteries.

But he never expected that Amerikan would ban it himself.
