Chapter 1116: Top Internet Topic
Reporters asked questions one after another, and Shi Lei selectively answered some questions. These reporters were delighted. They didn't expect that in addition to the much-anticipated Qixuan financing press conference, they could also get such a big news.
Before the press conference ended, some online media had already edited short news and published it on the Internet.
For a time, the discussion among netizens reached its peak.
The focus of everyone's discussion was of course on the battery life. Some netizens who knew some battery technology jumped out and explained from a technical point of view that this technology was simply impossible.
Some people said: The increase in battery capacity is not a big problem. At most, it will increase the weight of the car body. The real problem lies in the charging speed. If the charging speed is the same as before, eight to ten times the power will take eight to ten times the time to charge. Using a large cycle, it takes almost 24 hours to charge. This increase in power is meaningless.
Qixuan's diehard fans and Shi Lei's staunch supporters said: Stop talking nonsense, you can think of the problem, can't Shi Lei think of it? If it takes 24 hours to charge, Shi Lei would never do such a thing.
Someone else said: That's right, the news is not very detailed now, how can you conclude that Shi Lei has not solved the problem of charging speed? Mobile phones have fast charging, and electric vehicles can also have fast charging. A TYPE-C can solve the problem. Don't forget, charging for five minutes and talking for two hours.
Some people with good intentions, as well as some semi-official organizations, quickly searched for the patent held by Kong Yue. Sure enough, the domestic patent office has successfully applied for it, and patents in developed foreign regions have also been applied for.
They said: The problem of charging speed requires further news, or we can know it when Qixuan's electric bicycles are put on the market. However, this battery storage technology has indeed been registered with the patent office. Not only our country, but also Europe, North America and Australia have all been registered. At least, the technology provided by Shi Lei is fine.
Someone else jumped out and said: In fact, I think you all think too much. First of all, what Shi Lei does is corporate behavior, not home use, and charging speed will not be a problem at all. Shi Lei said that in the plain area market, electric vehicles are only used as a supplement to urban bicycles, and the proportion will not exceed 15%. How many bicycles can a city accommodate? I think 10% of the urban population is definitely no problem. Take the imperial capital as an example. The actual population staying in the imperial capital every day is 30 to 40 million, which means 30 to 40 million Qixuan bicycles, that is, only 500,000 to 600,000 electric bicycles. With a range of more than 100 kilometers, it is actually no problem to use it for two days. This means that facing a market like the imperial capital, Qixuan... no, Qiyue only needs to prepare 800,000 batteries to cope with it. More than 500,000 of them are directly put into use, and the rest are fully charged and on standby. Half of them are replaced after one day, and then the replaced ones are charged. What's wrong with a long charging time? Even 24 hours is no problem. In the plateau area, the population density is much smaller. It seems to be the market of the entire city. In fact, the amount of electric bicycles required for its full load operation may not be comparable to cities like the capital of God and the magic city. So, don't discuss the issue of charging speed anymore. This is not a problem for a company at all.
This analysis immediately received support from many people. The number of likes almost instantly exceeded 100,000, and the number of reposts reached 20,000.
Among the comments, most of them echoed.
Some people said: Yes, although the cost is a little higher, the advantage is that the weight can be reduced, so the cost of a battery is actually the same as before. The battery cost of an electric bicycle is at most 200 or 300 yuan, right? It’s no problem for home use. Buy an extra battery, one for charging at home, and one for use in the car.
This comment also quickly received more than 10,000 likes.
…
And the questions continued at the scene.
"Mr. Shi Lei, you said that you and Ms. Kong Yue both invested 200 million RMB. Does this mean that you don't need venture capital for a long time in the early stage? What is the share structure of your new company?"
Shi Lei nodded and said: "Ms. Kong Yue holds the controlling stake. In addition to the cash investment, she will include this patent in the assets of the new company. As for me, I own 49% of the shares, I own 40%, and Qixuan owns 9%."
"Qixuan's brand value, the development of the early market, and most importantly, Qixuan's mature APP, only account for 9% of the shares?" The reporter immediately expressed his incomprehension.
"Qixuan's brand valuation is currently only more than 200 million RMB. It is precisely because Qixuan needs to carry out early market development that it can account for 9 points. And this point has been agreed by Qixuan. You know, according to the share structure, once our new company is established, it will be an enterprise with an actual investment of 500 million. We think there is no problem in giving Qixuan shares worth nearly 50 million."
This is Qixuan's internal affairs. Of course, outsiders can't say much, but the news was quickly spread.
Netizens naturally had another heated discussion about this.
And some investors also expressed their opinions.
They directly analyzed it from the perspective of economic value and data, saying that if what Shi Lei said can be achieved, that is, the technology fully meets the standards Shi Lei said, then Qixuan’s nine-point stake is roughly reasonable.
With the opinions expressed by economic and investment experts, the issue of shares soon subsided, and everyone returned to the heated discussion about the electric bicycle itself.
The press conference ended quickly.
Shi Lei and Wei Haoran and the other four shook hands and said goodbye. Of course, there will be a banquet in the evening, but it is still early now, and Shi Lei still needs to go back to the company.
Wei Haoran smiled and held his mobile phone and said to Shi Lei: "It seems that Mr. Shi made us wait for three more days, and everything is worth it." On his mobile phone, there was a heated discussion about the new cooperation with Qixuan. In just half an hour, the label of Qiyue electric bicycle has become a hot topic on Sina Weibo.
On the contrary, the financing press conference itself has become a foil.
However, the four investors, including Wei Haoran, obviously don't mind this, because as long as it is related to Qixuan, they are happy to see it.
Back to the company, Shi Qiang asked privately: "Mr. Shi, the phone call before the press conference...?"
"It was from Dai Zhenxing." Before that, Shi Lei had told Shi Qiang about Dai Zhenxing.
Shi Qiang frowned and said, "What is this guy planning? He can't just want to get the shares of Qixuan, right?"
Shi Lei thought, if this call had been made earlier, he might have known Dai Zhenxing's plan. Unfortunately, the sensory card can only be used again after ten days. Otherwise, it would be enough to directly detect Dai Zhenxing's memory.
"With the ten points of C round financing, we are already invincible in equity control, so let's keep the same in the face of changes." Shi Lei said.
