MTL - Rebirth 2002: Nano Life-v3 Chapter 21 atl and nanfu
January 29, the eighth day of the lunar calendar.
Guangdong people usually choose to start construction on this day, which means good luck and good harvests throughout the year.
The companies under Chen Yizhe also chose to open and start construction on this day.
As a big boss, Chen Yizhe went to his own company to give red envelopes to employees one by one. As a generous boss, Chen Yizhe paid 200 yuan for each red envelope. No matter whether it was a low-level employee or experience, he was treated equally, and finally spent a day. , sent more than 300,000 famous coins, a total of more than 1,600 red envelopes.
Maybe 300,000 is only a small amount for Chen Yizhe, but there is a saying that is actually very good, Dou Mien, Dan Miqiu, if you give too much now, it will lead to resentment in the future.
Monday, February 2.
Unlike before, who just wanted to start work and receive a red envelope, all the companies under Chen Yizhe officially opened on this day.
Xia Meng Electronics Office.
Generally, Chen Yizhe will be here. The two newly acquired companies, Yide and Xinke, are both in Baoan. Chen Yizhe usually passes once or twice a week. After the previous acquisition, the employees of the two companies did not see Chen Yizhe very much. For several days, it suddenly became a state of laziness and relaxation. Apocalypse quickly reported the matter to Chen Yizhe, so the latter fired a few squid, and the employees of the two companies immediately became obedient.
"Mr. Chen, recently, many users have complained that the longer the battery is used, the shorter the battery life." After Chen Yizhe arrived at the company, the after-sales manager immediately came to the office to report the problem to Chen Yizhe.
"How many people have responded to this issue at present? What did the technical department say? How did your after-sales department deal with it?" Chen Yizhe tapped on the table.
"There have been more than 200 after-sales calls. The technical department said that this is the problem of the short cycle life of the lithium battery purchased at the beginning. It can only be improved through the design of the external heat dissipation environment. At present, our after-sales department provides The plan is to replace the battery free of charge during the one-year warranty period." said the after-sales manager.
When the original plan came out, the personnel of the company's technical department put forward opinions on the use of lithium batteries, but in the end, Chen Yizhe insisted on his opinion. Because if you change the 5th or 7th battery plan, it will make the body bloated, which is the last thing Chen Yizhe wants to see.
"Well, this is the only way to deal with it at this stage. Even the iPods that purchased LG batteries have the problem of too short cycle life of lithium batteries, which shows that this problem is a common problem of current lithium battery technology." Chen Yizhe continued, "The company's The new lithium battery project has been initially developed successfully, and the second generation in China will be delayed, and this problem will no longer exist when the graphene lithium battery independently developed by our company is directly used."
As for the mp4 order received on ces, Chen Yizhe will still use the previous lithium battery solution, but on this basis, Chen Yizhe will design the peripheral environment and circuit for it, hoping to extend the battery life slightly.
Not to mention the battery project, the e-paper project is already much bigger than the business, and it is time to separate the business.
Chen Yizhe will next split Xia Meng Electronics into three, in which the e-paper and lithium battery project teams will each set up companies to operate independently. In this way, Chen Yizhe will have more than 5 companies. On this basis, Chen Yizhe will set up Xia Meng Group Company , bring all of its subsidiaries into the group.
Of course, these are all things later, now back to lithium batteries.
If the only energy device that humans carry around is the lithium battery, to be precise, the lithium ion battery. The application of lithium-ion batteries is extremely extensive, covering electric vehicles, energy storage, various types of power tools and other fields in the future. Among them, the industrial scale of new energy vehicles, energy storage and other fields will maintain a double growth trend in ten years. These will greatly stimulate the demand for lithium-ion batteries. Especially driven by the market demand for new energy vehicles in the future, the scale of the lithium battery industry is expanding rapidly.
Moreover, the battery is a very magical thing. It is hidden behind various industries, and it does not show the mountains and dew. It is an industry with very low attention. Chen Yizhe remembered that before 2017, CATL was still making a fortune, until the Ministry of Science and Technology released the "2017 China Unicorn Enterprise Development Report", CATL was in Ant Financial, Didi Chuxing, After Xiaomi, Alibaba Cloud, and Meituan Dianping, it ranks sixth.
Whether it is the name of the company ranked before or after it, it is familiar to everyone, and it is known to everyone in the circle, but it is rarely known outside the circle.
Thinking of the Ningde era, Chen Yizhe was moved.
The graphene battery has been initially successfully developed, but if it is to be put into production, either it will build a lithium battery factory and production line, or it will directly acquire a lithium battery company and transform the production line.
The former will take a lot of time. After all, the battery factory is different from the display production line. It is extremely polluting and requires more professional factory assumptions.
Since you don't build your own battery factory and choose to buy directly, why not choose the big brother-alt of the Ningde era?
Thinking of this, Chen Yizhe called Hu Yifeng directly, "Brother Hu, what are you doing?"
"Don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything, tell me, what are you looking for?" Hu Yifeng's lazy voice came over.
"Brother Hu, I want to ask you if there is a company called Guancheng New Energy in Guancheng!" Chen Yizhe said with a smile. On the third day of the new year, he invited Hu Yifeng, Yang Zhihao and Zhong Zian to come. Dinner at home, but now the relationship between several people is relatively close.
"Is it controlled by a Hong Kong company?" Hu Yifeng was worthy of calling himself Guanchengtong, and he reacted at once.
"Yes, the name of the Hong Kong company should be Amperex.Technology.Limited, and the Chinese name is called New Energy Technology." Chen Yizhe said.
Chen Yizhe remembered that the founders of ATL were all executives from a Hong Kong company, which happened to be a wholly-owned and independently operated subsidiary of a RB group. Wholly-owned acquisitions by Japanese companies have laid the groundwork.
Moreover, ATL urgently needed funds when it needed to grow rapidly and expand its scale, and then introduced too much venture capital, which eventually led to a small shareholding ratio of the founding team.
Later, due to the fierce competition in the battery market, the parent company of several founders' old owners came from a group company of RB to fully acquire ALT.
Since then, ATL has become a company founded by the Chinese, actually controlled by the Chinese, but controlled by the Japanese. In the future, the Chinese people can't help but sigh.
"Don't speak English to me, I only remember that in 2001, there was a factory called Dongguan New Energy Electronic Technology in Baima, Guancheng, which was opened by a Hong Kong company." Hu Yifeng said.
"That's it!" Chen Yizhe touched his beardless chin and asked, "Brother Hu, are you free these days?"
"What's wrong?"
"If you are free these days, accompany me to Baima to visit the factory." Chen Yizhe said with a smile.
"Hey, you can ask me to be the escort, but if there are any good projects, don't forget me!" Hu Yifeng laughed.
"Haha, no problem, I'll give you two shares!" Chen Yizhe laughed.
"Can you be more generous?"
"Not anymore."
"The deal, you're ruthless! I'll call to check first to see if the person in charge of the other party has been in the factory these days! I'll call you at the appointed time." Hu Yifeng still works safely.
Hanging up the phone, Chen Yizhe suddenly picked up a pen and wrote the future - Ningde era in his notebook. Then he thought of another representative of the battery industry, and saw that he wrote four more words: Nanfu Battery.
In the TV commercial, Chen Yizhe can still remember Sun Wen's sonorous and powerful "national power", which once made the brand Nanfu spread all over the country.
However, in August last year, Nanfu was suddenly acquired by its competitor Gillette of the United States.
Chen Yizhe knows the reason for this, because Ding Huicong, the head of the lithium battery project team of Xia Meng Electronics, is the senior management of Nanfu. After Nanfu was acquired, he resigned sadly.
Nanfu was in the golden age of development in 1999. However, under the requirements of the local government's policy of attracting foreign investment, Nanfu was forced to make a joint venture, and its foreign investment target was Morgan Stanley.
When talking with Ding Huicong before, he said excitedly, "Nanfu is actually not short of funds, and the funds are abundant. Nanfu was forced to form a joint venture at that time! Morgan Stanley is a wolf, and I know that with it A joint venture will not end well at all.”
Morgan Stanley, the wolf, swallowed Nanfu into his mouth through a series of actions, and then spit it out to Gillette, earning 58 million US dollars from Gillette, Nanfu also suddenly completed the transformation from the national brand. To the role of "foreign daughter-in-law".
Ding Huicong said that when Nanfu and Morgan Stanley entered into a joint venture, a certain leader strongly facilitated the joint venture. This leader has been promoted because of the huge amount of foreign capital attracted to the local area. Later, Nanfu became an American, but this was after he left office - of course it had nothing to do with him.
Regardless of whether this statement is true or not, one thing Chen Yizhe is sure about is that Morgan Stanley's earnings have more than doubled, making a lot of money, and Gillette has easily eliminated its biggest competition in China. rivals, and a promising national brand has since disappeared.
In order to attract foreign investment, there are actually too many national brands such as Nanfu that are forced to make joint ventures.
Chen Yizhe once asked Ding Huicong why he resigned from Nanfu. Ding Huicong said sadly and indignantly, "Nanfu still calls himself a 'national force'. If I still work there, it is estimated that the Chinese people will poke my spine!"
The Nanfu incident has already happened, and Chen Yizhe can't change anything, but atl he still wants to try whether he can make an acquisition. If it is successful, the graphene battery will be even more powerful. If not, it can only be used in the later competition. Atl Sweep out of the country.
