Chapter 286 Tesla was dumbfounded
As the video call was connected, Xu Yun immediately saw two figures appear on the screen. In addition to Meng Songyan standing in front, there was also a pretty girl with quite aura and long legs next to her.
He had heard Meng Songyan mention the product manager of Pioneer Lingyue before. Although he had never met him offline, he was still familiar with him.
Thinking of the popularity caused by the launch of Trail Blazer Inspiron, he immediately smiled and praised it.
"Congratulations on your success in selling Blazer Inspiron. I have seen the situation online."
After saying that, he noticed that he was still holding the bottle in his hand and quickly put it on the table in front of him.
Although it was the first time for Meng Songyan to see Xu Yun as a nanny, as a person who had experienced it, he naturally wouldn't feel anything.
Quan Dang didn't see it and still replied calmly: "The reason why the Trailblazer Lingyue is so popular is mainly due to its own functions. We actually didn't put in much effort." Like Zhao Yu, he did not give this credit at all. Feel free to blame yourself.
And what he said was not wrong.
If the Trailblazer Inspiron does not have solid-state batteries and smart driving, or is extremely expensive, no matter what marketing plan they come up with, it will not be very effective.
After all, people are eager to buy the Trailblazer Inspiron not because of the person, but because of the function of the car.
At this moment, Zhao Yu, who was standing silently behind Meng Songyan, was secretly sizing up Xu Yun.
After she joined the Trail Blazers and became the product manager of the Lingyue series, she had never met Xu Yun offline.
She only learned from old employees of the company and the Internet that in her impression, as the most talented young genius in human history, he should be relatively indifferent and uninterested in things other than research. She never thought that the first image of him would come into view, but he would be a winner. A baby daddy wearing a baby's apron.
If it weren't for Meng Songyan's certification, she would have doubted whether there was a mistake.
But she felt relieved after she came to her senses and knew that Xu Yun was so approachable.
Just as she was thinking this, she heard Meng Songyan add:
"Currently our supply of cars exceeds demand, and many cities are asking for them to be open for sale."
"For this reason, I made a suggestion to Ningde, hoping to speed up the construction of battery replacement stations."
"well done."
Xu Yun nodded in affirmation when he heard this: "Now there are only five cities where sales are really low."
Meng Songyan obviously had more to report than that. After talking about opening up more sales cities, he excitedly mentioned the sales of the Trail Blazer Inspiron throughout the day.
"Mr. Xu."
"According to data collected from various cities, more than 10,000 high-end versions of the Lingyue were sold today."
"This has broken industry records."
When Xu Yun heard this number, his face inevitably showed surprise. He didn't expect the Blazers to be so popular.
You should know that in addition to the sales volume for just one day, this is only data for five cities.
The key is all high-end versions.
Even Tesla, which previously occupied a large market, only sold tens of thousands of units per month.
It is no exaggeration to say that the Trailblazer Inspiron has broken industry records.
"very good."
"I'm afraid Tesla is already an ant in the hot pot." Xu Yun nodded with satisfaction and became more and more expectant in his heart.
Meng Songyan also echoed: "It can only be said that they made the wrong choice at the beginning."
Xu Yun was worried that if he continued to chat, he would wake up his daughter, so he ended the call with Meng Songyan and asked them to continue to expand the Pioneer Inspiron market according to the original plan.
On the other hand, Tesla, as Xu Yun said, quickly convened an emergency meeting after the situation related to the Trail Blazer Inspiron spread overseas and attracted the attention of many people.
Deepin Technology announced the establishment of Pioneer to build the world's first solid-state battery new energy vehicle.
Although they pay attention to it, it is far from the level that is critical to the survival of the company.
It is believed that Deepin Technology uses so many advanced technologies that the final price of the car will definitely be very high.
Only a small number of people will be able to buy it at that time, and it will not affect their market share.
But after seeing the official guide price released by the Trail Blazer Inspiron, they were all dumbfounded.
I even thought I was dazzled.
I never expected that the final selling price of the Trailblazer Lingyue would be lower than theirs, so users would only buy their cars if their heads are kicked by a donkey.
What's more, with the success of the Trailblazer Lingyue, other car companies will definitely gradually launch their own cars to compete for this huge cake.
But among the many new energy vehicles, they chose to stick to their own standards and did not accept solid-state batteries.
In this way, even if they launch new models, they will be automatically ignored because they are equipped with lithium batteries.
Originally, they put some of their hopes on Panasonic, hoping that the other party could conquer solid-state battery technology.
It didn't work out at all in the end.
Although the other party added a catalyst to improve battery life.
However, the battery life will be much reduced and it will be more likely to explode in the event of impact.
Making them afraid to use it.
"The sales of the Trailblazer Inspiron series have been booming since its launch, breaking many records in the industry, and even overseas users have spoken highly of it."
Californian Asia.
Silicon Valley.
In the conference room of Tesla headquarters, a senior consultant in a suit reported the situation to the figure on the screen in front of him. Musk is indeed the CEO and product architect, but he is also the boss of several other companies. He usually does not Will intervene in everything.
This time I received a meeting invitation from the company's senior management, so I had to temporarily stop what I was doing and agree to the video.
Unfortunately, the results of the report made him very unhappy.
"Are they crazy?"
Thinking about the information he had, he couldn't understand the Trail Blazers' selling price.
I can't imagine any company doing this.
With such a low price and the addition of smart driving and shaping fluorocarbon polymer coating materials, they simply have no comparison.
He is not even qualified to fight arm-wrestling now.
The senior consultant couldn't care less about the boss's anger at this moment, and immediately told the trends of other brands.
"boss."
"Currently, except for the Trail Blazer Inspiron, other car brands have also brought their solid-state battery vehicles to the next level. Our current situation is very bad."
As his words fell, other people in the conference room also opened up their chat boxes and expressed their opinions one after another.
"The power of the opponent's cars is not just solid-state batteries, but also smart driving and other hardware that are significantly ahead of us. I'm afraid it won't be long before they dominate the entire global market."
"Facts prove that we should have chosen to cooperate with Ningde, otherwise we would not be as passive as we are now."
"We must take action. Continuing to sit still and wait for death will only lead to death."
…
After listening to everyone's words, the old horse on the screen looked extremely ugly.
I didn't expect that the company's senior management would have so many hindsight.
But as everyone says, now is not the time to hold people accountable.
Companies must seize the opportunity as soon as possible and come up with appropriate solutions.
With his thoughts stuck here, Lao Ma seemed to have made some decision, and immediately announced to the company's senior staff present: "Immediately announce to the public that all cooperation with Panasonic will be abandoned, and new models will be replaced with all-solid-state batteries." After persisting for so long in vain, he finally Still have to be soft.
Although this will cause the company to suffer relatively large losses, in the long run it will at least be competitive with other brands.
If you still insist on traditional lithium batteries, you are really hopeless.
Originally, they had two new cars on hand, and they were not too far away from going on sale.
But now that we have chosen to accept solid-state batteries, this new model will definitely not be launched online. It needs to be developed and designed again according to the standards of solid-state batteries.
Since we know that we can no longer compete with the Pioneer Inspiron, we still need to stand out among other solid-state battery brands.
After all, the Pioneer brand alone cannot capture the entire global auto market.
What's more, oil trucks will gradually withdraw from the stage of history in the future.
Faced with the final decision made by his big boss, others will naturally have no objections.
Besides, everyone present also understood that this was the best solution.
"It's the boss."
After he responded to express his knowledge, he saw the figure of Lao Ma disappear from the screen.
Clearly in a bad mood.
Perhaps because they are aware of the impact the company will face this time, others do not dare to hesitate.
The announcement was made that morning.
And proactively contacted Ningde Times.
Tesla originally thought that such a big news report would cause shock and discussion to the outside world.
The surprising result was that it didn't cause any waves.
The first batch of owners who snapped up the Trailblazer Inspiron must have made a video to show off, because they experienced the powerful functions of the Inspiron and wanted to help promote it.
With the rapid increase of similar videos on the Internet, domestic netizens are envious and do not forget to spread them to the outside world.
I thought that if I wanted to be sad, I would have to share it with everyone.
Anyway, if overseas users want to buy the Trailblazer Inspiron, they have to do so later.
For men, regardless of nationality, they all have an indescribable love for cars.
Especially cars that achieve truly intelligent driving.
Therefore, after seeing these videos from platforms such as YouTube, my attention was immediately attracted.
Who is still in the mood to pay attention to what batteries Tesla uses?
At first, some people expressed doubts about the authenticity of the video, but after videos recording the Spirit's driving on various roads were uploaded, they were immediately stunned.
Even ask how you can purchase it below in the comments section of the video.
Obviously, the Trailblazer Inspiron has just been sold in a few cities, but its influence has already spread all over the world.
It's really hard to imagine.
When overseas users learned that they were temporarily unable to purchase it, they immediately expressed deep regret.
"This is so cool, I really want to own one."
"Oh my God, I didn't expect that I would actually see intelligent driving technology. Deepin Technology is simply the greatest company in the world."
"Compared to the car in the video, the cars I've seen before are just oversized toys."
"Where can I buy it?"
"Even with a forklift, there is no way to leave any traces on the car body. This is completely a walking tank."
"Building battery replacement stations is a very novel and practical way to solve the problem of charging time."
"Why is this car not for sale in my city? It's such a shame."
…
However, while others are thinking about when they can buy the Trailblazer Inspiron to experience smart driving, Panasonic is shrouded in a huge shadow and is about to be stripped out of the battery market.
Since Ningde obtained the solid-state battery technology authorization from Deepin Technology, the global battery industry has ushered in a major reshuffle.
Especially those small companies that blindly join the new energy battery industry basically disappear without even making a splash.
They relied on being an established battery giant and successfully secured orders from Tesla, thus temporarily maintaining the company's normal operations.
But they also understand that if they want to continue, they must develop a new battery technology with an energy density that is not inferior to that of solid-state batteries.
For this reason, they have invested a lot of money in research and development during this period, accelerating battery research and development at all costs.
After all, they are not a laboratory under Deepin Technology, so trying to produce results in a short time is tantamount to wishful thinking.
After spending a lot of money and manpower, they only developed a catalyst that can increase the energy density of lithium batteries, but there is still a huge gap compared with deep-tech solid-state batteries.
The key is that the battery with this added catalyst is even less safe than traditional lithium batteries.
Faced with such a result, as the president, Shinpei Honma keeps a straight face almost every day.
Know that a huge company can collapse at any time.
Although he also wants to save this behemoth and try to transform the company into other areas.
However, the results are very limited.
Need enough time.
In the past two days, he saw Deepin Technology's first solid-state battery car pioneer Lingyue officially launched, and he immediately realized that the global automotive industry would undergo huge changes.
After all, whether it is the various advanced technologies installed on the Lingyue or the eye-catching price, it shows that it wants to capture the largest share of the global automobile market.
Just as he was thinking about this, he suddenly received a notice of termination of cooperation from Tesla.
Although he had already guessed that this would happen, he was still a little distracted when he actually saw it.
"The day has come."
In the office, Honma Jinping read the cooperation termination document and couldn't help but sigh with a look of loneliness on his face.
Ito Yasufumi, who was also staying in the room to report on his work, noticed the change in the president's face. I couldn't help but ask.
"President."
"What happened?"
Faced with Ito Yasufumi's inquiry, Honma Shinpei did not deliberately betray him.
He was informed of the situation directly.
"Just now, Tesla has announced the termination of cooperation. If I guess correctly, they should have been contacting Ningde."
Ito Yasufumi seemed calm after learning the truth of the matter, and seemed not surprised by it.
After thinking for a moment, he did not forget to speak: "The other party must be afraid of the solid-state battery cars launched by Deepin Technology, so they gave up their previous insistence and chose to accept the unified battery standard."
"You are right." Honma Jinping nodded and agreed.
Yasufumi Ito heard this and asked the next second: "President, what should we do next?"
“With solid-state batteries completely replacing traditional lithium batteries, it has become difficult to sell our batteries. Let’s transform the company into other fields as soon as possible while there is still time to breathe.”
"I understand, President, I will ask people to complete the plan as soon as possible."
Ito Yasufumi was forced to accept the reality, leaned over and responded to Honma Shinpei before turning and walking outside.
Soon, Shinpei Honma was left alone in the office, sighing secretly.
Regarding Tesla’s final decision, news soon reached Xu Yun in Jingzhou City.
Xu Yun was not surprised at all by this result. He knew from the day solid-state batteries were launched that unifying battery standards was a general trend that no car company could stop.
Acceptance is just a matter of time.
Unless you want to watch your brand withdraw from the market.
On the other hand, the more car brands are willing to accept unified standards for solid-state batteries, which is also a good thing for the entire industry.
Because other car companies want to launch their own solid-state battery vehicles, they will definitely need to build battery replacement stations.
Since the battery replacement stations are all of the same standard, users can use them at will.
In this way, not only the construction speed of battery replacement stations is rapidly increased, but the Pioneer Inspiron can also expand its sales scope.
In addition, Xu Yun is very clear that it is impossible to satisfy the entire automobile market with the production capacity of Pingzhou's super factory, so everyone still needs to operate together.
After all, when he eats meat, he always leaves some soup for others to drink.
The main future is not just the new energy vehicle market. As gasoline vehicles are gradually eliminated from the market, the global gap in solid-state battery vehicles will be very large.
CATL has obviously taken this issue into consideration and has invested in several battery bases in recent times.
In the following period, as the number of battery replacement stations continued to increase, Pioneer Inspiron opened sales in other cities.
Later, there were dozens of cities where Trailblazer Inspiron could be purchased, and the sales volume quickly exceeded 100,000 vehicles.
At the same time, other car brands have gradually begun to promote their own solid-state battery vehicles and invested in battery replacement stations.
Although their solid-state battery cars do not have intelligent driving technology and shaped fluorocarbon polymer coating materials, the price is more favorable than the Trail Blazer Inspiron.
It can be said that because of the Pioneer Inspiron's first selling price, the overall price of solid-state battery vehicles has been driven down.
Although everyone wants to buy the Trail Blazer Inspiron, the annual production capacity is limited after all.
Coupled with the introduction of various regulations and the gradual withdrawal of gasoline vehicles from the stage, solid-state battery vehicles have become a necessity.
At that time, you will still have to give up experiences such as smart driving and choose other brands of solid-state battery vehicles that are cheaper and more affordable.
Soon it will be September.
As the new semester begins, Xu Yun, a professor at Jingzhou University, cannot continue to squat at home.
It has to shine and generate heat.
During this month, his life can be said to be very regular.
Every day he either spends time with Chen Shihe or takes care of his daughter, and barely even leaves the house.
Fortunately, Chen Shihe has recovered now, and there are two elders at home to help take care of him. He can finally find time to fulfill his obligations as a university professor.
But before that, I need to organize my daughter’s full moon party.
As previously discussed, Xu Yun only invited relatives at home and some professors and academicians from Jingzhou University. As for his classmates, he basically only invited those with whom he had a relatively good relationship.
In addition, some people were unable to come to attend due to distance and time issues, so Chen Jianfang was not asked to prepare too many meals.
After all, everyone has their own life trajectory, and it is normal to be unable to spare time. Xu Yun did not pay too much attention to this.
September 5, 2021, Jingzhou City, private room of Mengjiang Hotel.
After Xu Yun warmly greeted the guests, he came to the private room at Jingzhou University.
He raised his gaze and looked over briefly, and saw several familiar figures.
There are Tang Yanshan from the Department of Mathematics, Qin Xiangxin, Dean of the Institute of Advanced Mathematics, and Xu Chongxing from the Institute of Physics.
Among these people, Tang Yanshan is the most special. As the mathematics professor who recruited Xu Yun to Jingzhou University and watched him grow up to now, he feels very emotional when he thinks that Xu Yun has become a father.
"I really didn't expect that you will be a father in a few years. I'm afraid no one in class would have thought that you would achieve what you have today."
After Xu Yun stood nearby and listened to Tang Yanshan's words, he immediately responded with a smile on his face: "No matter how talented I am, I can't do it without the guidance of professors and academicians. I can't do it on my own." That’s it.”
"You kid can say such nice things." Xu Chongxing next to him couldn't help but laugh and curse.
In the following time, Xu Yun chatted with everyone for a few more words, and even drank some red wine during the period.
With his face slightly flushed, Qin Xiangxin suddenly asked from the opposite side: "Now that this year's freshmen have entered the school, when will you, Professor Xu Da, return to the Institute of Advanced Mathematics? In the past two years, our institute has been very good at mathematics. There are no big achievements here.”
As the dean of the Institute for Advanced Study in Mathematics, although it is equally gratifying that Xu Yun has made progress in other fields, it is also a problem that the institute has left Xu Yun and become unavailable.
If Xu Yun no longer studies theoretical mathematics and there is no mathematical genius to replace Xu Yun, then it may take a long time to lead the domestic mathematics community to truly rise.
"Don't worry, Dean Qin, I will return to the college in two days." Xu Yun answered directly.
"That's great. The students in the school are still waiting for you to start classes." After receiving Xu Yun's affirmative reply, Qin Xiangxin's face was immediately filled with smiles.
As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Yanshan next to him asked again: "You shouldn't have any new projects on your hands next, right?"
After hearing this sentence, Xu Yun thought about it carefully.
At the Optoelectronic Technology Research Institute, Luo Changhui leads a team in charge of research and development, which is enough to conquer more sophisticated photolithography machine technology. There is no need for him to go to Jincheng to take charge.
Hou Shengchang at the Academy of Sciences did not arrange a new project for him, but he could actually enjoy the experience of being a teacher.
His thoughts stayed here, he shook his head and said: "There are no projects for the time being."
After hearing this answer, Tang Yanshan immediately fell into deep thought, as if he was thinking about something.
Yue Mo paused for two or three seconds before hearing him smile and say: "In that case, why don't you consider recruiting a few graduate students."
