Chapter 1142 Battery

“joking?”

Although it is not time for the U.S. stock market to open yet, Tesla founder Musk has already felt the pain in his back.

If Jiuzhou Technology really gives all these technologies to Daxia Enterprises without paying, the group of Daxia new energy vehicle lunatics led by BYD will definitely build engineering prototypes in a very short time and use terrible manufacturing plants to supply them to the world crazily.

Huh…

Musk let out a long breath, a little dazed.

He looked at the group of executives beside him and was about to speak, but suddenly remembered that those in charge of technology had left Tesla.

Andrei Kapas, senior director of AI and head of autonomous driving, had already announced his resignation, and he also logged on to Twitter to send him off cordially.

And Zelko Popovich, head of the autonomous driving team, also resigned last year and joined Embark, an autonomous freight startup in San Francisco.

Musk looked at Ashok Eluswamy, the director of autonomous driving software of his own company.

Of course, after just one glance, he didn't want to look at him anymore.

Because this bastard once leaked that a video Tesla used to promote its autonomous driving technology eight years ago was acted out. He even said that the video described capabilities that Tesla technology has not yet achieved, such as accelerating at green lights or stopping at red lights.

Looking around, Musk had a strong sense of insecurity.

Finally, he asked, "Can our batteries keep up with Jiuzhou Technology's solid-state batteries? Rogers, one of the battery managers, can you give me an answer?"

Rogers raised his head, which had been lowered for a long time, and cursed in his heart: "Fuck, why did you call my name!?"

Then he said to Musk with confidence: "We have three main battery suppliers for Tesla cars, namely: Panasonic, LG Chem and CATL.

The first generation of power batteries 18650 was provided by Panasonic and has been used in Model S and Model X.

The second generation of power batteries 2170 is also provided by Panasonic and used in Model 3 and Model Y. Five years ago, LG Korea also realized the manufacturing process of 2170 power batteries, so LG also became one of our battery suppliers.

The third generation of lithium iron phosphate batteries, because the process is very different from the previous power batteries, are all provided by Daxia Ningde Times, mainly installed in Model 3 and Model Y's entry-level model.

We want to improve from 2170 power batteries to 4680 batteries, but the battery density is too high, the safety is greatly reduced, and the intelligent electronic control technology also needs more stable technological innovation, which is not yet available for mass production.

However, Lemon Era is also on the list of core partner companies of Jiuzhou Technology. We are a major customer of Lemon Era. After it obtains Jiuzhou Technology's second-generation graphene solid-state battery technology, it should provide batteries for new energy vehicles to our company.

However, I think we need to consider an imminent problem. If Lemon Era adopts Jiuzhou Technology's second-generation graphene solid-state battery technology across the board, then the solid-state batteries it makes will not meet the regulations for the shutdown. We cannot import them to our factories in the United States, and if our new energy vehicles are equipped with this battery from Jiuzhou Technology, it cannot be smoothly exported to many Guojiahe areas that have shut down Jiuzhou Technology. "

...

Musk glanced at the person in charge, and then looked at his own business director and legal director.

The latter looked at each other in silence, with thoughtful eyes.

Before the legal director spoke, the business director said: "We can give Lemon Era a customized technology, including but not limited to battery coloring, outer packaging and other technologies, and then ensure that our patented technology occupies the majority share when reporting.

As long as we lobby the heads of relevant departments, our new energy vehicles can be sold all over the world."

The legal director nodded after hearing the business director's plan and said: "As long as the procedures are compliant, we can even allow certain special authority channels for import and export plans, which can all be solved."

What is American double standards?

That's it.

But this "conventional" answer is obviously not what Musk likes.

After hearing the answers from these senior executives, Musk's face was still not relaxed.

He took a deep breath, looked solemn, and said: "Can we guarantee that Lemon Era can get Jiuzhou Technology's technology? You should know that in addition to Lemon Era and BYD, there are other Daxia battery companies at this tasting event.

And as far as I know, Jiuzhou Technology has a high degree of control over the products made by the technology it has delegated, and can even allow manufacturers to set up a supply blacklist.

It is said that it is for harmonious competition and to avoid internal consumption, but many foreign companies have failed to get these products. I heard that Intel has asked Xiaxin Technology to manufacture chips. This business has been discussed for three years, but there has been no progress so far."

...

The conference room fell into silence again.

Suddenly, an executive in the corner said: "We can increase investment in Lemon Era and even give them a sum of free funds to fight for Jiuzhou Technology's solid-state battery technology."

Ningde Times was founded in the 1011th year of the Xia Yin Star Calendar. As it has grown, its internal shares have long been impure. If Tesla really invests a large amount of US dollars, it will definitely be extremely tempting for the expanding Ningde Times.

Musk smiled and nodded at this suggestion.

Thousands of miles away, the senior executives of Ningde Times still looked up and stared at Gu Qing's hands.

The domino formation composed of Yunjin displays, one by one, the patterns of technical products lit up everyone's mind.

At this moment, everyone recalled the fear of being dominated by Jiuzhou Technology.

Obviously, Jiuzhou Technology has been working on mechas and investing in aerospace in recent years, thinking that everyone can take a break, learn Jiuzhou Technology's technology well, and then surpass it.

But now.

Overtake?

The young man stopped and held a meeting, which directly blew up everyone's aspirations.

Gu Qing looked around, fear, expectation, admiration, suspicion, all kinds of eyes flashed in the eyes of these social elites. He understood why these people's mentality was like this.

So he opened his arms and said to everyone: "This is the commercial technology project of our Jiuzhou Technology July Technology Appreciation Conference. All friends around the world can visit our Jiuzhou Technology official website for business cooperation consultation. Of course, if your company is located in an area where you cannot log in to our official website and establish a cooperative relationship with us, please overcome these difficulties and then discuss cooperation with us."
