Chapter 227 Take our batteries out of the reserve
Not long after, Luo Jia received a call from Huawei President Ren. He smiled and said, "Now our treatment is finally the same. In the past, we and ZTE were surrounded by the world, and now we have to add your names. There is nothing strange about this. Their style of behavior has always been like this. You are not the first to be targeted, and you will not be the last one."
After putting down the phone, Luo Jia was very calm. He was not surprised by this. A nation that had not shed blood for survival was not enough to stand proudly in the world. Similarly, companies that had not experienced cruel commercial wars were not qualified to be called real giants. Since their opponents wanted to fight, then fight. There is no word "fear" in the dictionary of the Tough Man Group.
Anran looked at Luo Jia and said, "On the afternoon of July 20th, there will be a new product launch conference held by the four overseas battery industry giants. Panasonic, Sony, General Electric and Siemens will release battery products that are leading the world.
"This is probably the second step in the global encirclement plan. Panasonic and Sony have always been giants in the battery industry, while General Electric and Siemens represent North America and Germany, split up Samsung and LG's battery patents and factories. In addition, they have also established several super-large factories in their own local areas."
Luo Jia nodded gently, "In the past year, we have been desperately expanding our production capacity, preparing for the final decisive battle. After all, every electric car needs to be installed with thousands of 18650 lithium batteries. If the production capacity is not enough, electric cars will not be able to be manufactured in large quantities."
"Panosonic chose to take action at this time, and should be ready to deal with our battery products. Although I don't know how they can solve the cost problem, they obviously came prepared."
"What should we do then? We will prepare a press conference and fight back for them?" An Ran asked.
Luo Jia smiled, "Of course we have to fight back. Since they like to release new products so much, we will also send one."
"The hardware department has been holding it in for so long, just waiting for this sentence!" An Ran laughed and said excitedly: "I'm asking Li Moran to go to the reserve warehouse together to bring out our nuclear weapons!"
Luo Jia thought about it for a while, then stood up and said, "I'd better go with you."
The fourth underground floor of Star Research Institute is a place called a reserve warehouse.
There are colleagues from the security department stationed here all year round, and if you want to open the door, you need at least two of the three of them to be present at the same time, Luo Jia, An Ran, and Li Moran.
Luo Jia and Anran took a special elevator to the reserve warehouse and greeted their colleagues in the security department. They stood opposite the iris scanner, and two red lights shot out and hit their pupils. Then the identity verification was passed, and the thick alloy door opened to both sides.
There are still many things in the reserve warehouse, placed on alloy shelves more than one person high. Among them, there are not only successful technological products, but also many prototypes.
"Every time I come here, I feel excited. Look at the sensors made by these optical departments. We made hundreds of prototypes, and finally chose micro-curved sensors for mass production. Whenever I see them, it feels like I'm back to those sleepless nights." An Ran pointed to the countless sensor modules on the shelves and sighed.
Luo Jia nodded, "Yes, the existence of the reserve library is not to show off its technical strength, but to remind us of the difficulties of scientific research."
While chatting, the two of them came to the shelf where the prototype batteries were placed. Each prototype battery was installed in a transparent plastic box, and each box had about seventy or eighty.
Luo Jia tapped one of the plastic boxes with his fingers, "Well, it's this box."
Anran took it off the shelf, came to the long table in the center of the storage warehouse, opened the box, took out silver cylindrical batteries from it, and carefully observed with the help of the light.
It seems that they are no different from the 18650 lithium battery mass-produced by Xingchen Technology, but Luo Jia and An Ran are very clear about the secrets hidden in these batteries.
Luo Jia weighed the battery in his hand, then put it back on the box, and said to An Ran, "I originally planned to wait until the new energy source is launched before taking out this thing. After all, if you want to get on an electric car on a large scale, you must have enough electricity first."
"The most suitable time is next year, because by next year, our power generation array will be able to supply energy to the whole society on a large scale, so it's still a bit early."
An Ran ignored Luo Jia's words, picked up the plastic box excitedly and walked outside, muttering, "The opponent has hit the door, don't care, let's talk about it after he's done."
Not long after, the box was placed in the center of the high-rise conference room. Ji Ming took out a battery from the box and sighed deeply and said, "Hey, these little things were finally moved out of the reserve warehouse. It's not easy. We used so many brain cells for these little things."
An Ran smiled, "Last year we did put a lot of effort into batteries, but everything was worth it, because we not only developed a high-performance lithium cobalt oxide battery, but also stored ourselves the key technologies at the nuclear bomb level."
"If we hadn't had these little things, we would have been panicked today, but we had reserves and strong technical reserves! So we will not only not panic today, but we will also immediately counterattack when our opponents launch an attack!"
Everyone nodded and agreed to Anran's words.
What does technical reserve mean?
Some technologies have actually been researched, but due to market and cost considerations, they will not be mass-produced for the time being. Instead, they will release this technology after all conditions have matured, which is equivalent to a hidden killer weapon.
Dr. Lingfeng, the electrical giant, nodded slightly and said, "Everyone at the level of a technology giant has almost hidden a huge amount of technical reserves. Take the memory chip giant Samsung for example. This Korean company is like a dying Xiaoqiang. We knocked out the mobile phone. Optical and displaying that after the battery, Samsung is still alive, and it is still very comfortable, because they have very strong technical reserves in the storage field."
"In order to solve the memory chip problem, my country has established four major companies, Jinhua, Unigroup, Changjiang, and Changxin, and has invested tens of billions of yuan. However, so far, the four major storage companies in my country are still unable to challenge Samsung's dominance. When we were still studying the 32-layer Nand, Samsung has begun mass-producing the fifth-generation Nand, that is, the 96-layer 3D products. It is said that their technical reserves have reached the 256th layer, which is really crazy."
Speaking of the field of memory chips, everyone couldn't help but sigh. The biggest technological gap between my country and the world is probably the semiconductor industry, with a gap of more than ten or twenty years.
An Ran cheered up and said, "The future matters will be left to be solved in the future. Today, we need to first protect the achievements made in the new energy field."
"Tomorrow Panasonic will release new batteries. We might as well just let them sit on the world's number one throne for twenty-four hours, and then drive them down!"
Everyone nodded and agreed with An Ran's opinion, but Luo Jia seemed to have a different view.
Luo Jia thought, and said lightly: "When will they announce it?"
"Beijing time, four o'clock in the afternoon." An Ran said.
