Hearing Gong Hui's tone, he was definitely aware of it, Meng Qian asked, "Is there any inside story that can be revealed?"

"Your decision is too hasty." Gong Hui sorted out her thoughts, "I almost witnessed the growing decline of the battery industry in Shenzhen from a hundred flowers to a hundred times. It can be said that now it is a world of big brands and big manufacturers, new and small and medium-sized investors, almost one person dies."

Meng Qian pushed the snacks in front of her and pleased her: "Speak slowly."

Gong Hui was not in the mood to eat: "Just put it this way, a few years ago, the electronics field in Shenzhen Stock Exchange continued to stage a miracle of tens of thousands of yuan in fighting and getting rich millions. However, with the decline of the era of counterfeit machines and the increase in competitors, the elimination speed of this industry is unimaginable. If you don’t have any results in two or three months, your future will be dead."

"The profits of mid- and low-end batteries have been suppressed very low. Because of the bad economic situation, suppliers have gone bankrupt in batches, and agents must also entrust part of the payment for the goods. Beware of the difficulties in the supply and marketing process, and mid- and low-end companies will have no future."

Meng Qian asked: "Why take the high-end route?"

Gong Hui continued: "According to your investment scale, you can only be aimed at mid-to-high-end, but I regret it for you. The time is wrong. If you entered the industry two or three years earlier, there is a great chance of seizing the opportunity and growing, but the market is now monopolized by big brands."

"As far as I see, a friend of mine invested tens of millions and vowed to get the best battery in China, which is stronger than Scud. He strictly grasped the materials, and the cost soared to nearly 20 yuan, more than twice that of Scud. The quality is excellent, but it still went bankrupt."

Meng Qian didn't understand: "What do you say?"

"As the same thing as before, big brands, big manufacturers, the world of you, an unknown manufacturer, why should an agent take your products? There is no brand of big manufacturers, nor is it well-known, and the cost is more than twice that of others. Who dares to try it? It is natural to go bankrupt."

Meng Qian figured out why she was not optimistic: "So, the situation in the middle, low and high ends is severe, and no one can develop."

Gong Hui didn't say anything: "There is a chance for development, but it's very slim. Can you be sure that you will be able to compete with others?"

Meng Qian was not hit: "There is still great hope."

Gong Hui didn't understand: "You still insist on doing this? Can't you choose a better way out based on your ability?"

"Relax." Meng Qian said to her, "Thank you for your concern first, knowing that you love me. But I won't be blind. I'm sure what I want to do is high-end, and it's not what you said you'll die if you don't have any results in three or five months. I'm in the field of technology monopoly, no one can do it within five years."

Gong Hui didn't believe it: "How could this happen?"

"Technological innovation." Meng Qian took another sip of coffee, "I will follow the existing model again, no matter how high-end it is, I will die - I agree with what you said."

"But what I want to do is to upgrade the battery under the system. Compared with the current ones, it can be said to be cross-era. Its capacity theory can be increased by more than three times, supports fast charging, and has increased the charging speed by more than 6 times. What is the most needed in the battery field? It is my breakthrough!"

"You are just a theory, you have to achieve the year of the monkey and the month of the horse." Gong Hui was not optimistic, because she knew a lot, so she knew the difficulty more clearly.

"Are you making a bet?" Meng Qian said playfully, "If I do it, you promise me one request. If I don't, you make one."

"Are you so sure?" She was very suspicious.

"I'll ask you, do you dare to bet?" he said provocatively.

"Go and bet." She didn't believe it.

"Waiter, pay the bill." Meng Qian greeted the waiter and packed up his own things: "I'll give you a certificate now. Go to my house and open your eyes!"

...

"Wow, you're so messy."

Gong Hui opened her eyes as soon as she entered the door. Clothes, snacks and books were everywhere. She probably put them everywhere and couldn't clean them at all.

Meng Qian smiled and said, "Don't care about these details. I'll call housekeeping services tomorrow to ensure it's back to its original state. Find a place to sit, what to drink?"

"I won't drink anymore." Gong Hui helped him sort out the sofa and coffee table before sitting down.

Meng Qian took another computer and product of his own and placed it in front of her, proudly: "The data and finished products in the laboratory are beyond your imagination."

Gong Hui picked up the finished battery product that was not very good, took a few glances and reminded him: "If it is true, you should pay attention to confidentiality."

"You are my friend, don't mind."

Gong Hui said cautiously: "Technology is money, and brothers will settle the score clearly."

Meng Qian sat down next to her: "Don't worry, although you know how to do it, you are definitely not a scientist. If you want to look at it, it is impossible to copy my products. Take a step back and say that if you can do it, it will probably have no future. I might as well give up my thoughts now."

Gong Hui nodded: "It's good that you know what you know."

"Look, this is the data I conducted professional testing in the laboratory. Do you understand?"

"don't know."

"I don't know how simple it is and I'm worried about leaking the secret?" Meng Qian smiled, "Let's help you analyze it. First of all, it's the third one, capacity, voltage and internal resistance..."

After some introduction, Gong Hui digested the content.

But she still has a last question: "I admit that you have made breakthroughs in technology, but the materials and processes you need are different from traditional ones, and commercialization will face many difficulties; secondly, your cost and new products can increase costs accordingly, but what about the market acceptance level?"

If the production steps are too complex, it will increase costs; if the increase in costs will lead to a smaller market of products, which will also affect the company's returns... This is a problem that has always been with Meng Qian since he decided to enter this field, and Gong Hui also pointed it out incisively.

Meng Qian said: "This is what I have to consider, and I have to spend money on this research. But back to the question just now, who is the winner in our bet?"

"No, the result has not come yet." Gong Hui shook her head.

"You promised me an hour ago, and now you're just slutty?" Meng Qian frowned and looked at her.

"It will only count when the official result comes out." She smiled sly.

"Okay." Meng Qian was a little dissatisfied, "but I made it clear. I can't refuse a condition."

"No refusal." She nodded, "as long as you can do it."

...

The production of positive and negative electrode materials of the battery and the cost control of the product all require testing.

Meng Qian certainly can't do so many jobs alone. He needs technical professionals, preferably who are very familiar with battery manufacturing and production, and have certain innovation capabilities. Recruitment is a route, but technical talents are often the hottest thing for enterprises and are not easy to find.

After the company was recruited, he thought of a new route.

I called the management teacher in the laboratory last time. They had several conversations. The teacher said that he had also had some outstanding students and bragging was very good, but I didn’t know if he had any real skills. The teacher on the other end of the phone agreed and responded the next day.

"I have a student who works in a large enterprise and is specialized in the research of battery materials. If you really have new technology and funds, you can dig him over."

"Will they agree?" Meng Qian suspected that after all, he was doing well in a big company.

Teacher Liu smiled heartily: "My student is a technical person and is dedicated to it. If you give him the opportunity to come into contact with new technologies, he will definitely be happy to change jobs."

Meng Qian had a try attitude: "Okay, please ask the teacher to make an appointment for me to meet."
