City: Start A Chip Factory

Everyone was stunned.

Solid state battery?

Unexpectedly, the boss Du Bo has such a big idea, jumping from semiconductor chips to the power battery industry.

But if you think about it carefully, this is indeed in line with the style of Du Bo, the big boss.

The most accustomed to some high-end technology products, other people, other companies are shocked.

At this time, Du Bo said: "I know everyone has a lot of questions. Don't worry. I will explain it to you slowly. The most important thing now is to get this solid-state battery factory up and running."

Wei Tao nodded: "Boss, no problem, I will transfer some people from the chip factory first, but I don't know the production line here..."

Du Bo: "Don't worry, the operation method is the same as that of the chip factory. The production lines are fully automated and it is easy to adapt."

Wei Tao felt relieved when he heard this.

To transfer people over there, we need the cooperation of the human resources department.

Wei Tao quickly went to have a small meeting with Liu Xuezhen.

Du Bo thought about it. 10 Originally, he wanted to notify Tang Yongsheng immediately, but now he felt it was not the time.

Even if the actual solid-state battery can now be produced, it still cannot prove how impressive the performance of the battery is.

It's not even clear whether it's a solid-state battery or not.

It is still necessary to install the vehicle first and conduct a test of the solid-state battery to demonstrate to people the production of solid-state batteries.

To be honest, Du Bo is not confident about the solid-state batteries produced.

What is the performance of solid-state batteries?

How many kilometers can a battery pack last?

And the most important thing is the fast charging capability. How long does it take to fully charge?

These questions need to be answered.

If the performance of the produced solid-state batteries is not much different from that of ternary lithium batteries and lithium iron phosphate batteries, it would be meaningless.

Of course, Du Bo also thought that the interface display information of the solid-state battery production line now includes a "battery level" item.

This shows that after the production line is upgraded, the performance level of solid-state batteries can probably be improved.

But before that, it still needs to be put into production to obtain growth value.

Therefore, the performance of "ordinary" level solid-state batteries is still critical.

Another important issue is cost.

If the cost of solid-state batteries is too high, it will drive up the price of electric vehicles and affect sales.

Therefore, there are still many problems before Du Bo, which gradually calmed down his excitement.

In any case, let’s first produce the actual solid-state battery and see how it works.

Du Bo asked Lu Anqi, Ning Jing and others to go to work first, while he lost the control center of the production line.

The operation method and interface logic of the control center are almost exactly the same as those in the chip factory. Du Bo can play smoothly in no time.

Although there are currently no employees on the production line, fully automated production lines can also produce independently.

However, Du Bo also wanted to see the production data of solid-state batteries.

Du Bo found the option for "normal trial production" and clicked on it.

The production data is shown below:

[Battery pack type]: Solid-state battery

[Battery pack level]: Ordinary

[Battery Pack Specifications]: Normal

[Battery pack capacity]: 150 kWh

[Battery pack weight]: 300 kg

[Low temperature power loss]: 25%

[Charging speed]: 30-50 minutes

[Production quantity]: 1 set

[Battery cost]: 80,000 soft sister coins

Du Bo looked at the performance parameters carefully and felt relieved.

Du Bo has strong technical knowledge and can certainly understand these parameters.

What's more, these performance indicators are very straightforward and easy to understand.

It’s amazing. It’s truly a solid-state battery!

Just looking at these data, it is much stronger than ternary lithium batteries and lithium iron phosphate batteries.

The power of this battery pack reaches 150 kilowatt hours.

What does this mean? If calculated according to the current three-electric system of more advanced electric vehicles, it can last 1,000 kilometers, just a lot more.

The total weight of the battery pack is actually only 300 kilograms!

Electric energy per kilogram reaches 500 watt hours!

What is the electrical energy per kilogram of the highest-density and most powerful ternary lithium battery? Only 300 watt-hours!

The solid-state batteries produced by Du Bo have nearly twice the power!

It can be said that if a ternary lithium battery is to be used to produce a 150-kilowatt-hour battery pack, the total weight of the battery pack will reach 500 kilograms!

For an electric vehicle, this is a huge burden. It is likely that due to the increase in the total weight of the electric vehicle, the power consumption has also increased, so it will not be able to reach 1,000 kilometers of driving range.

Du Bo's solid-state battery pack weighs only 300 kilograms, which is a completely acceptable weight for today's electric vehicles.

Du Bo took a look at the cost of the battery and found it was 80,000 yuanmei coins.

The price is indeed a bit high, but now there are no employees to operate the production line, so the cost efficiency is only 50%.

If the production line is fully staffed, the cost will drop significantly to only 40,000 to 50,000 RMB.

This price is completely acceptable. Low-end electric vehicles cannot use 390 solid-state battery packs. Mid-to-high-end electric vehicles with RMB 180,000 to 500,000 yuan are absolutely fine!

Of course, the specifications of the battery pack can be selected. If you choose a smaller battery pack, the battery life will be reduced, such as 700 kilometers of battery life, and the cost will also be reduced.

Thinking of this, Du Bo feels that the solid-state battery business line has a bright future.

Du Bo thought about it for a while and decided not to produce more battery packs. Instead, he would make 10 sets of battery packs as samples.

So, Du Bo changed the production quantity of the battery pack to 10 and pressed the "start" button.

With the sound of sound, the production line started to start, and the production of solid-state battery packs began.

Du Bo thought for a while, took out his mobile phone, and planned to call someone.

At the same time, in the magic city, Seris Automobile headquarters.

Jia Haiqing, CEO of Seris Auto Group, “was talking to someone in the office.

The other party's name is Liu Zhigang, and he is the sales director of Ceres Automobile.

Just now, Liu Zhigang submitted a resignation letter to Jia Haiqing.

This made Jia Haiqing very worried.

It doesn’t matter if others leave, even the sales director has to leave, so how can we sell this car?

Jia Haiqing called Liu Zhigang into the office, intending to persuade him to stay.

But looking at Liu Zhigang's attitude, he has indeed made up his mind. .
