Monster Factory

Of course, scrapping a battery is easier than recycling a battery based on its condition.

Recycling batteries need to evaluate the usage of the batteries. As long as the evaluation is made, consumers will definitely clamor that their batteries are simply healthy. Why should they bargain so much?

Not only is it ridiculous, it's also troublesome to evaluate, and the technicians have to carry out performance tests on the battery.

Retirement is simple.

As long as consumers ask for scrap, how can the technicians be uncooperative?

"Are you sure you are not mistaken?" Huang Chen was very surprised.

At present, these plasma battery packs certainly did not meet the obsolescence standard, and the energy attenuation of these batteries was only 40%.

Reading the internal chip of the battery, Huang Chen found that these batteries were charged using standard charging piles.

And charging starts when the remaining power is about 20% to 30%, and there is no overshoot or overdischarge behavior, which is a good quality battery.

The driver who led the team was very sure, saying that this was what the boss meant.

Then scrap it.

Huang Chen is also happy to scrap it, so he doesn't need to make up an excuse to increase the recycling value of the battery.

Discarding in accordance with consumer requirements does not violate his working spirit.

The receipt form was issued soon.

All six batteries were discarded and disposed of. Huang Chen wrote in the review column [The battery energy attenuation is heavier, the storage charge efficiency is reduced, and the charging time is prolonged. According to the customer's opinion, carry out scrapping treatment. 】

Then replace the second-generation plasma battery.

Under normal procedures, you need to make an appointment to replace the battery, and then transfer the goods from the branch, especially to replace six sets at once.

But who made these people the relevant households? Huang Chen took the expedited channel from the maintenance backstage.

The branch directly uses Skynet aviation logistics to deliver goods. Xiaozhou is only more than 300 kilometers away from the Xiangnan branch.

The battery was delivered at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, and it was delivered to Xiaozhou in less than three hours.

Plasma battery replacement is not cumbersome. You only need to disassemble the battery protection chassis under the car, and you can replace it with an automatic lifting device.

For the six vehicles, Huang Chen took the other three staff and replaced them in less than two hours.

The lead driver was also happy to transfer money. After taking a picture of the invoice, he transferred money for six sets of batteries.

Activate the battery and drive away.

The leading driver also told Huang Chen that the company plans to replace the batteries of the remaining 50 Thunderbolt vehicles with second-generation batteries in the next few days.

Their boss said that this batch of batteries should be disposed of as scrap, so Huang Chen had better contact the branch first to prepare a batch of batteries in advance.

Huang Chen accepted it casually. After sending them away, Huang Chen returned to the office and was quite puzzled.

Things don't seem to be what he imagined?

After the first-generation battery is scrapped, and the second-generation battery is deducted from the discounted scrap price, there is a lot of money.

I'm afraid that the only people who have human relations here are just jumping in the queue to handle maintenance items and expedited passages.

Huang Chen is not an unreasonable person, and he will not refuse to deal with some things entrusted by his superiors or friends in a hurry without harming the interests of the company.

But the logic in this doesn't make sense.

Huang Chen is not sure if there is a problem on the supervisor's side, but there must be a problem on Ruida's side.

What they do does not conform to the laws of the market and does not meet the company's profit goals.

Before joining the giant monster industry, Huang Chen stayed in two companies.

These two companies, from the small department heads to the company's sensible, will always emphasize interest, interest, and then interest in meetings.

For profit, they can use interns as animals and regular employees as machines.

Ruida is at best a municipal-level automobile business company, and its scale is not even qualified for listing.

Why can this company replace all its Thunder cars with second-generation plasma batteries without blinking their eyes?

The first generation is not unusable.

With the battery still usable, spending millions to replace all of its cars with a new generation of batteries, wouldn't it be inconsistent with the wallet?

If it is replaced normally, they can reduce the replacement cost by nearly two million according to the recycling price.

It is now scrapped, and only 60 coupons can be used.

Huang Chen felt that Ruida had a problem, but could not find the problem.

During the day when the driver was asked about the reason for replacing the plasma battery, they only said that it was an order from the boss, and they didn't know much.

…

In the evening, Huang Chen found the supervisor while he was off work.

Passed the supermarket shopping card, and explained the behavior of the driver of Ruida Company exactly.

"You take the card."

The supervisor Zheng Songli couldn't see the joy or anger on his expression. He just pushed the shopping card over, "You may not pick up the things that others give you."

"Since you have received it, don't take it to me again."

"As for the reason why Ruida has the wealth and money to directly scrap the battery, that is their business."

"People have this right, and we have no right to interfere."

"What you have to do is to help them quickly replace the batteries, so as not to affect the normal operation of their fleet."

The next day.

Ruida once again brought more than ten Thunderbolt cars to replace the second-generation plasma batteries.

The first-generation old batteries are also scrapped.

In the afternoon, another group of swift cars approached.

Huang Chen took the technicians from the repair shop to remove the batteries. After testing, they found that the energy attenuation of the batteries was only 33%.

Unless this batch of vehicles is a fixed-point operating route of more than 500 kilometers, there is no need to replace the battery.

Before leaving get off work at night, Huang Chen sat in the repair shop, facing a pile of first-generation plasma battery packs in the warehouse that had been labelled as scrapped, in a daze.

The battery pack in front of you is rectangular, and the appearance is a black body that resembles the shape of a mobile phone.

Huang Chen is no stranger to the plasma battery in front of him.

It is 2.2 meters long, 1.4 meters wide, 6.5 cm thick, and weighs 900 kg.

The outermost layer of the battery pack is a thin shock-absorbing insulating film. If this film is disassembled, the silver-gray protective casing of the battery pack will be exposed.

It is said that this protective shell can withstand bullet attacks without damage.

Huang Chen never disassembled the battery pack, but knew that inside the protective casing were eight plasma batteries wrapped in a composite polycarbonate material.

Plasma battery is a metal liquid energy storage material with extremely high stability and will not react even if it collides violently.

The energy attenuation of the more than 20 battery packs in front of us ranges from 33% to 40%.

Reading the battery chip shows that these battery packs are in good working condition, but the internal liquid metal energy storage material is in the process of charging and discharging, because of the long-term thermal movement of the molecules, the performance of the material is gradually destroyed and the storage charge efficiency is reduced.

It's a pity to just scrap it like this.

It is a pity that Huang Chen has no right to interfere with this.

There is a unified process for the scrapping of plasma batteries, and the maintenance station removes the plasma batteries that need to be scrapped.

They must be transported to all provinces and branches, and the branches will decompose and classify the plasma batteries.

Part of the recyclable metal products will be transported back to the headquarters, and the non-recyclable liquid energy storage materials will be treated in a harmless manner.

Regretful for a while, Huang Chen returned home.

Tomorrow he has a new task. He needs to go to a nursing home in Xi County to instruct the caregivers in the operation to use the wizard maids.

Xi County is more than 70 kilometers away from Xiaozhou, and transportation expenses for business trips can be reimbursed.

He was planning to make an appointment with an online car-hailing driver that he used to do on business trips, but the driver called early in the morning and said that the car was parked in the community and was touched by someone. Now he was arguing with the driver who caused the accident, so he was really sorry.

Huang Chen said it was okay, so he could find a car again.

Coincidentally, when Huang Chen took a taxi online, he hit a Rui Da company's lightning vehicle.

Ruida Company operates taxi and car rental business, and half of the taxis in Xiaozhou City are under Ruida Company.

The lightning that Huang Chen is sitting on now belongs to the car rental business.

Commercial vehicles have a scrapped life limit. When no one is renting them, Ruida will of course not leave these lightning vehicles idle.

Huang Chen didn't recognize the driver, but the driver did.

The middle-aged uncle laughed and said that the day before yesterday, they had just replaced a new battery in a group of six cars at the maintenance station. He also praised Huang Chen and his colleagues for their quick hands and feet, and the battery of one car was replaced within 20 minutes.

Huang Chen even said that his eyes were clumsy and he didn't recognize it.

I have had a relationship before, and I will naturally chat on the road.

Huang Chen had been wondering about Ruida's abnormal behavior in his heart, so he simply asked the driver while on the road, why Ruida had to replace all the batteries in its cars, and it was obvious that these batteries were still usable.

The driver said that he didn't know too well, it may be related to the company's taxation.

Zilei is a new energy vehicle, and it is estimated that tax deductions can be deducted by spending a lot of money to replace the battery.

The driver's expression did not look like a lie, but Huang Chen felt that this was not true. He had never heard of such a statement.

Even if there is, it is impossible for the company to have a profit point in this area.

Otherwise, other companies would have swarmed.

Huang Chen estimated that the driver probably didn't know the inside story, and continued to chat and didn't talk about anything.

It's more than seventy kilometers and it's only one hour's drive.

The car was parked at the entrance of the nursing home, waiting for the driver to leave in the car. Huang Chen, who was standing at the entrance of the nursing home, always felt that something was wrong.

It should not be what the driver said.

It was a scene that flashed by, and this scene made Huang Chen feel wrong.
