Chapter 375 The humble Wang Chuanfu
9 month 12 day,
Hao Qiang went to CUHK to visit Academician Xu Zhan.
He visits the old man every once in a while.
After lunch, Hao Qiang left Academician Xu Zhan's home.
Walking alone in the teachers' and staff area, I suddenly ran into an acquaintance.
Still that devilish figure and charming walk.
"Sister Liu, long time no see!" Hao Qiang looked at her delicate face from the side and the small beauty mole on her lower lip. It was undoubtedly her.
Liu Xian!
His freshman English teacher.
It's been about two years since I last saw her.
Not much has changed, still so young.
When Liu Xian heard someone calling her, she turned her head slightly, stared at him, and was slightly surprised: "Hey, it's Hao Qiang!"
After she called out, she realized that the man in front of her was already the richest man in the country, and immediately changed her address: "I should call him Mr. Hao. It's really been a long time since we last met."
"Sister Liu, you're being polite. Just call me by my full name at school." Hao Qiang smiled. "Do you live here?"
When they were freshmen, they occasionally ate hotpot together. They were neighbors and were quite familiar with each other.
"Yes, thanks to you, I moved to the faculty and staff apartment last year." Liu Xian smiled.
"Oh, I thought you were still renting a house outside."
"The school apartment is pretty good and convenient for classes. If I were to live in the graduate dormitory, I'd rather rent a house outside." Liu Xian then asked, "How come you, the richest man, have time to come here?"
"Academician Xu Zhan is my doctoral mentor. I come to visit him occasionally. After all, he is not young anymore."
"Oh, so that's how it is. Academician Xu must be very proud to have a filial student like you." Liu Xian smiled. "Of course, I'm also very proud to have been your teacher.
I can’t believe you’ve become the richest man in the country.
I've seen a lot of coverage on portal websites about your company's cars lately. I wish the new car a big hit."
"Thank you."
Hao Qiang smiled.
The two walked towards the faculty gate, chatting as they walked.
When they were almost there, Hao Qiang said, "Sister Liu, I have some things to do today and need to rush back to the company. Let's have dinner together another day when we're free."
"Well, go ahead and get busy." Liu Xian waved her hand and watched Hao Qiang walk towards a Rolls-Royce Phantom at the gate.
His bodyguard opened the door and Hao Qiang bowed slightly and sat in the back seat.
Only after watching the car gradually drive away did Liu Xian look away and leave.
"This guy seems to have become more handsome and imposing." Liu Xian raised the corners of her lips and walked towards the English office.
In recent years, she occasionally paid attention to Hao Qiang's development.
His development speed is shocking.
……
Recently, Hao Qiang's schedule has been very busy.
Just after the new car was launched for sale, he started to arrange the research and development plan for the next model.
At the same time, Pengcheng Lithium Battery Factory also started mass production, but there were still some difficult technical problems that needed to be solved by him personally.
There is a huge difference between lithium batteries used in electric motorcycles and lithium batteries used in cars.
The scale of the first phase of the Pengcheng ternary lithium battery factory is impressive.
Its maximum annual production capacity reaches 40GWh, enough to meet the battery needs of 50 future ES6s.
According to the current situation, lithium battery factories can fully meet the needs of automobile manufacturers, and even have excess production capacity for external sales.
Not long ago, the Yuecheng lithium battery factory was still worried about the supply and demand imbalance.
Now, with the commissioning of the Pengcheng lithium battery factory, production capacity has suddenly overflowed.
Lithium battery production capacity suddenly exploded, and Hao Qiang asked the upstream lithium battery alliance to speed up supply.
Since the financing, the four lithium mining companies controlled by Hao Qiang have continued to expand their production capacity and invest in lithium mines.
After the financial crisis, it again lent money to four companies to continue expanding production capacity and investing in lithium mines.
In just over two years, the four lithium mining companies have expanded at least tenfold.
It plans not to distribute dividends for three years, and all profits will be used to expand the scale. In addition, the company also owes Hao Qiang a total of 25 billion yuan personally.
Today, future car sales are booming, and the four companies have seen a surge in orders.
If 10 new energy vehicles are sold annually, the battery procurement cost will be 80 billion yuan.
The battery cost of a lithium battery factory is about 48 billion yuan, and it is calculated that the raw material lithium carbonate exceeds 1 tons.
The price of lithium carbonate has soared from 1.5 yuan/ton two years ago to 3 yuan/ton at present, and the output value has exceeded 3 million yuan.
Future Technology Group has a huge demand for the raw material carbonic acid, with a demand of 2 tons this year.
The demand next year is 4.5 tons.
We can’t use so much lithium carbonate for the time being, but it’s not a bad idea to stockpile it. It won’t be a problem to store it for a few years anyway.
It’s impossible that we can’t get raw materials when the lithium battery production capacity explodes.
Next year, Hao Qiang plans to push the four lithium mining companies to raise funds and continue to expand lithium mining investment.
His goal is clear: to firmly control the pricing power of lithium batteries in his own hands.
Monday, October 9.
In the past five days, the average daily reservations for the Future ES6 have remained stable at around 300 vehicles, with a slight increase on weekends.
This data made Hao Qiang feel very relieved.
However, peers in the luxury car industry are worried. Times are getting tough and getting worse day by day.
Hao Qiang,
As the focus of his business shifted, he spent three or four days a week working and living in Pengcheng.
Qiu Yuqing's company is in Yuecheng, and Han Qingying occasionally needs to go to school, which makes Hao Qiang often alone in the Pengcheng factory.
The 2,000-square-meter flat is so huge that it feels empty even for three people, let alone Hao Qiang alone.
The advantage of being big is that it has rooms for all functions and you don’t have to go outside.
Not to mention a week, you can stay at home for several months.
Well, I can’t lack girls.
Without girls, the yin and yang will be unbalanced and the human body will easily have problems.
anyway,
When Hao Qiang feels tired working on the 37th floor, he can go directly to the 38th floor to rest.
Even if he worked overtime until after eleven o'clock at night, he didn't have to rush home like he did in Yuecheng.
After getting up in the morning, you can save the trouble of commuting.
This way, he has more time to write and upgrade his writing system.
Although he occasionally feels a little lonely, Hao Qiang understands that this is the only way to develop his career.
He often stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the night view of Shenzhen, his heart full of longing for the future.
When I feel really bored, I take out a sightseeing telescope and watch the sea view.
On weekends, Han Qingying and Qiu Yuqing would also come to accompany him.
Or, Hao Qiang will return to Yuecheng to work.
The company's laboratory is mainly located in Yuecheng Company.
In the afternoon,
Wang Chuanfu came to visit Hao Qiang to discuss something.
Some time ago, the two had preliminary communication on more cooperation.
In the past half month, Wang Chuanfu saw that the sales of Future ES6 had stabilized, and he had to admit that Future Motors was more successful than BYD, and the gap was huge.
This Future Technology Group is popular no matter what it does.
"Hello, Mr. Hao, sorry to bother you." Wang Chuanfu looked around the spacious office again. It was really grand.
He came once at the last new car launch conference.
But this time, it felt different.
"Mr. Wang, this is too formal. Please take a seat."
Hao Qiang said with a smile that he wanted to promote the development of new energy vehicles, which would be conducive to the development of lithium batteries and lithium mines.
At the same time, new energy vehicles need to have a unified charging standard. It will not work if he just launches it without the approval of his peers.
In this case, Hao Qiang needs more people to support him.
After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Wang Chuanfu got straight to the point: "Mr. Hao, can we license the technology for the intelligent vehicle system and driver assistance system sensors you mentioned last time?"
Hao Qiang took a sip of tea and said, "Our company can cooperate with your company to develop an intelligent vehicle system suitable for your company.
As for the driver assistance system sensors, they are our company's core technology and are only sold but not authorized.
Moreover, its technical difficulty is very high and the manufacturing process is very complicated.
If Biyadi needs it, I can promise a lower price than other peers."
It is impossible for Hao Qiang to give Future 1.0 to Biyadi, so they can only cooperate in development. He will not participate, but will just consider it as gaining experience for the company team.
Millimeter-wave radar, ultrasonic radar and lidar are high-tech products and cannot be authorized.
Even if the other party was given the technology, it would be extremely difficult for them to produce it without Hao Qiang's personal guidance.
Upon hearing this, Wang Chuanfu glanced at Hao Qiang, who was still smiling.
What they said is right. How can we license the core technology to others?
Only those that you do not use yourself will be authorized to others.
