Chapter 358 Musk Visits Muyang (Monthly Ticket)
The 2012 Shanghai International Auto Show ended on May 1, which happened to coincide with the Labor Day holiday.
The first four days were all car companies holding new car launches. Xinghai Group's car show was a show off, which made other car companies' new car launches lackluster. In comparison, they were not attractive at all.
Well, except for the eternal car models.
It can be said that car models are an important factor in stimulating domestic demand, activating the automobile market, and promoting the TT consumer market, and cannot be ignored.
It also allows the common people to see and experience it, which reduces social instability.
Hey, many viewers complained that Xinghai Group did not have car models.
Mu Yang was criticized for not being progressive, not keeping up with the times, and not understanding the real needs of the audience.
Of course, they still can’t resist being shocked by the Hummer EV’s domineering appearance and sci-fi functions, just as they are shocked by the beautiful car model!
After Mu Yang finished Xingdian Company's press conference, he was ready to return to H City.
A week after he came out, he felt that there was a suppressed yang energy that could not be vented. He urgently needed to seek treatment from Song Xuelu. Ordinary doctors could not solve his disease at all, because Song Xuelu knew Muyang's condition better.
If she is gone for three days, Mu Yang's illness will probably attack;
After seven days of absence, Mu Yang was already seriously ill, and physical therapy could not solve the problem within a few hours.
So, at five o'clock in the afternoon, Song Xuelu came to Shanghai.
At night, Mu Yang received Song Xuelu.
After the car show was over, Mu Yang no longer planned to stay in the hotel. After the two had dinner, they planned to check in at the large flat floor that Song Xuelu bought, Tomson Yipin.
Mu Yang has never been to Tangchen Yipin Community. He has heard about the awesome competition in novels before. Maybe others think it is.
But he had already lived in a super large villa, and also lived in a large flat in H City Green Park, so he felt that Tomson Yipin was not that good.
It’s just that the scenery I saw was different.
Living on the flat floor of Green Garden, you can overlook the scenery of the West Lake;
The 28-story house that Song Xuelu bought at Tomson Yipin is located in a perfect location to enjoy the scenery of the Bund and the Huangpu River.
At seven o'clock in the evening, the two came to 2801 Building A of Tomson Yipin. Building A is an apartment building by the river. His apartment covers an area of more than 600 square meters. The monthly property fee is not something ordinary people can enjoy.
rise.
"It's a bit stuffy. I guess the window is closed." Song Xuelu opened the door of the house and smelled a stuffy smell.
"It's okay. The floor is high and the ventilation will be good after a while. If the windows are not closed, there will be a lot of dust in the house over time." Mu Yang entered the room and first turned on the air conditioner, then opened all the windows.
The ventilation effect of the apartment is very good, the cool breeze blows in, and it feels very comfortable.
The room is cleaned from time to time, there is no dust, and the bed quilt is sealed with plastic film.
The two of them tidied up a little, broke out in sweat, and happened to take a shower and exercise at the same time.
The experience of playing sports at a high level is extraordinary.
This is a harbor of condensed love, a poem of love, a poem of love, where the depths of the soul can happily ripple and run along with the Huangpu River not far away.
The night view of the Bund is charming, and Song Xuelu is even more charming tonight.
The Jin Mao Tower and the Financial Center stand proudly like two peaks.
As for the Oriental Pearl Tower, the huge long pillar in the middle stands tall and reaches into the sky.
Viewed from the perspective of Tomson Yipin, the Oriental Pearl Tower is inserted right between the Jin Mao Tower and the Financial Center, which is very appropriate for this moment.
In the dead of night, the bustle of the stalls finally dissipated, and the Huangpu River seemed to be flowing slowly above the Jin Mao Tower and the Financial Center.
And the room finally returned to calm.
Mu Yang collapsed and leaned against the bay window. He rarely calmed down and summarized the eight major plans of the April 8th Plan.
[1 Hummer electric vehicles will be mass-produced within one and a half years, with planned sales of no less than 50,000 units per year; current progress: 45%;
Within two years, Future 01 and Future 02 will be produced in small batches, and mass production will be completed within three years. Current progress: 43%]
[2 New energy battery project, small batch production completed, mass production debugging, current progress: 85%]
[3 motor projects, small batch production completed, mass production debugging, current progress: 87%]
[4 Autopilot system, reaching LV2, current progress: 95%]
[5 battery charging projects, current progress: 100%]
[6 Bulletproof Glass Project, equipment in place, current progress: 59%]
[7 Xinghai Building is put into use and is undergoing interior decoration. The decoration of floors 1-5 has been completed, and the decoration of floors 100-108 has been completed. The current total progress is: 86%]
[8 Completed turnover of 60 billion yuan, current progress is 17.5%]
The overall progress of the Eight Major Plans is still very good, especially for the Hummer EV. Small problems in prototype testing have been continuously solved, and there are no major problems. This means that it can enter small batch production, and it will continue to be optimized in small batch production.
If there are no problems with small batch production, then you can prepare for pre-sale.
Pre-sale is a very critical stage and what Mu Yang is looking forward to the most.
This Hummer EV is like his own child. If the pre-sales data is not good, Mu Yang will not be in a good mood.
Xinghai Building has completed the renovation of floors 101-108, which will be my future home. After the building is completed and the ventilation has been ventilated for a few months, you can move in.
The company's R&D team has produced many invention patents. In the first quarter of this year alone, the group's number of invention patent applications reached 120, and the per capita invention patent density has exceeded that of Warwick Corporation.
These invention patents will not add achievement points to Mu Yang, because Mu Yang did not personally participate and will only be recognized if the participation rate reaches more than 50%.
Top technology research will always produce some useless invention patents, which is inevitable.
In the past year or two, the R&D team has produced many world-class invention patents, but it takes a long time to convert experimental products into samples and even batch products.
There are some invention patents that have created benefits for the group.
For example, the 1500W and 2000W fiber lasers invented by the laser project team have reached the world's top level and have been applied to the market;
Another example is the titanium alloy project team, which has developed world-class aviation TA6, TA8 and TC1, and is constantly improving the titanium alloy system. In terms of titanium alloy technology, Xinghai Group is already among the top in the world.
After sorting out the April 8 plan, Mu Yang fell asleep soundly.
This night, he slept very comfortably, maybe he was too tired.
The next morning,
After getting up, Mu Yang sat on the wicker chair on the balcony and watched the scenery. The Huangpu River during the day was definitely different from that at night, and the surrounding city scenery was unobstructed.
He once dreamed of owning a house in Shanghai, but now he lives in a top community in Shanghai.
In 2012, a house in Huangpu, Shanghai was about 40,000 yuan per square meter. By 2020, the average price had exceeded 100,000 yuan per square meter. It was really not a house for people to live in.
It can be said that the plummeting or skyrocketing price of housing in Shanghai has nothing to do with ordinary people.
This sentence seems very sad and desperate.
Therefore, young people who cannot see hope should just lie down and forget about it.
Do you still want to have more children?
Make a yarn.
I can hardly afford to raise one.
But people should face life optimistically, and this will not change the status quo. No matter you are poor or not, no matter how life treats you, you must have a positive, sunny heart, a good attitude, and treat things with a normal heart.
Facing life, this is the connotation of a happy life.
Human desires are endless. If you lower your desires, happiness will be very simple.
For example, try playing the King of Pesticides. If it doesn't work, then try a few more times.
Mu Yang and Song Xuelu spent a few days in Shanghai and then returned to H City.
Tesla Musk has already arrived in H City, China. Before coming to China, he sent a letter of visit to Xinghai Group on April 27, requesting to visit Muyang to discuss ternary lithium batteries.
Mu Yang didn't hesitate much and agreed to discuss it.
Maybe the current Tesla is not very good, but Musk is an outstanding figure. The Falcon 9 rocket developed by his SpaceX space exploration technology company successfully launched the "Dragon spacecraft" into Earth orbit in 2010.
This is the first time in the world's history that a spacecraft has been launched into space by a private company and returned successfully.
They founded SpaceX in 2002 and began researching rocket launches.
While we were still engaged in traditional industries, others had already set their sights on space and succeeded.
Maybe interstellar immigration is a big scam, but who knows in the future, at least Musk has taken action.
No matter how the outside world evaluates it, Mu Yang mainly judges a person's ability by observing his execution ability. There is no doubt that Musk is an activist with very strong execution ability.
Rather than the kind of talk that "all talk without practice means nothing".
Different countries have different positions. Mu Yang admires Musk, but he definitely doesn't want him to develop.
Tesla's current situation is not good, and Musk has to come to China.
Tesla’s current market value is approximately US$3.5 billion, equivalent to 20 billion RMB.
Last year, Xinghai Group's profit alone was more than 20 billion yuan. If it were to go public, it would definitely be a behemoth.
Musk understood the development of Xinghai Group and specifically went to get to know Mu Yang, the founder, a very remarkable young man who he admired.
Moreover, Mu Yang is also a mathematician, which surprised Musk even more.
At ten o'clock in the morning on the 8th, Mu Yang met with Musk and his team at the Supercomputing Center of the Xinghai Group headquarters base.
“Warmly Welcome TO CHN,Mr.Musk.”
"Hello, Mr. Mu, your company is really big, especially this Xinghai Building, which is very majestic." Musk did not flatter, but told the truth.
The exterior wall of Xinghai Building has been renovated. It and the exterior wall of Shanghai Financial Center are both made of glass curtain wall. From a distance, it looks like a dark blue mirror.
Now Xinghai Building has become a landmark building in H City, with many citizens coming here to take photos every day.
However, they are not allowed to enter the Xinghai Group headquarters base, but taking photos outside the wall is also allowed.
Xinghai Group took this into consideration and specially set up a shooting location. The background is the panoramic view of Xinghai Tower and the green plants of Xinghai Group. This will also help promote Xinghai Group.
It's just a pity that Xinghai Building is not open to the public.
When Musk came to the Xinghai Group headquarters base, he was also shocked by the Xinghai Building in front of him and admired it for a long time.
After the two briefly exchanged greetings, Mu Yang took Mask and his three followers to the ternary lithium battery laboratory before returning to the company's reception room to sit down.
After Cai Xiaokun, director of the Xinghai Group Office, briefly introduced Xinghai Group to Musk and others, Musk said bluntly:
"Mr. Mu, before I came here, I expressed the purpose of my trip in my letter of visit, which is to cooperate with Xinghai Group and purchase Xinghai Group's ternary lithium batteries."
"Mr. Musk, of course there is no problem with this, but I think such a simple cooperation is not conducive to the development of both parties and is difficult to achieve a win-win situation." Mu Yang smiled and said, "Moreover, our current production capacity of ternary lithium batteries is very limited.
First provide it to Hummer EV, then supply it to the alliance, and finally it will be a relatively simple cooperation."
In later generations, Tesla purchased Ningde Era’s ternary lithium batteries, but canceled the cooperation for a period of time and turned to battery manufacturers such as LG, causing Ningde Era’s stock to plummet.
Musk probably understood Mu Yang's words. If he only used money to trade, the other party might not be able to guarantee the delivery date.
If Musk does not accept the conditions of Xinghai Group, of course there is no problem, then he will continue to purchase LG, Songshang and other brands.
However, there is a big difference between the energy density data of ternary lithium batteries of LG, Songshang and other brands and the energy density data published by Xinghai Group, and their safety performance and other performances are incomparable.
For the same 75-kWh ternary lithium battery, battery packs from brands such as LG and Panasonic are much heavier, correspondingly increasing energy consumption.
The Model S they developed, the 390KM range model, weighs 2,200 kilograms, and the battery pack accounts for a large part of the weight.
A gasoline vehicle of the same size weighs about 1.6 tons.
If the Xinghai Group's battery pack is used, the weight of the entire vehicle can be reduced to less than 2 tons.
In terms of price, the Xinghai Group's car may be more expensive, but the performance of the car is greatly improved, and the most critical safety issues can be solved.
"Mr. Mu, if we are an alliance and cooperative relationship, what benefits will there be, and what are your requirements?" Maskel asked sadly, fearing that Mu Yang would make harsh demands.
Now is the supply-side market. Xinghai Group’s ternary lithium batteries are rare and expensive. No one else except Xinghai Group has them.
This is just like a photolithography machine. You may not be able to buy it if you give money. You have to ask others and meet their conditions.
Judging from Mu Yang's surface attitude, he did not insult him, but talked to him in a peaceful manner and gave him enough respect. On the surface, the two parties were talking on an equal footing. Otherwise, Musk would have walked away.
Chapter completed!
