Chapter 672: You get what you pay for

"That's right, it's a new super solid-state battery."

Wu Hao repeated, and then introduced with a smile: "This is our latest research and development of super battery technology. This battery technology can be said to have brought about a technological revolution in the entire battery industry and pushed battery technology to a new stage. .

Since this technology was unveiled at the air show last year, we have actually been testing it. Not only us, we have also handed over the battery to a number of domestic research institutes and technical units, who will conduct more authoritative third-party testing.

These tests are very strict, including testing battery performance, safety, pollutants and environmental standards.

In the end, these units have always believed that our battery is much higher than the current lithium-ion battery in terms of performance, safety and even the environmental protection of battery materials, and some even improve it several times. "

Speaking of this, Wu Hao showed a somewhat helpless expression and said: "It is precisely because this battery technology is too advanced that we have encountered great difficulties in its commercialization.

The first is the protection of technology and patents. Because batteries are too advanced and will be used in many cutting-edge military weapons and equipment, relevant departments attach great importance to the protection of technology.

Even now, our battery's core technology and integrated casting technology and other production processes have not applied for patents, and we have adopted a self-confidential approach.

This is very rare today when technology patents are common, and it was also unimaginable in the past.

Fortunately, we have an automated unmanned production line. All batteries are poured through the unmanned production line, so it is much more convenient for us to keep confidentiality.

Originally, this technology was prohibited from being exported in accordance with relevant regulations, but because this technology has so much market potential, we only installed this battery on our smart AR sunglasses for the first time after obtaining special permission."

With that said, Wu Hao took the smart AR sunglasses and introduced to the camera: "Please see, the temples of this pair of smart AR sunglasses are much slimmer than the temples of the smart AR glasses series we released before.

As for other friends’ products, we don’t need them.”

“Because it adopts one-piece casting technology, this new super solid-state battery can be said to make full use of the space inside the slim temple legs and use it to the extreme.

In the end, we packed a total of 19 grams of batteries into the temples of this pair of smart AR sunglasses, and its battery capacity is as high as 780 mAh.

Yes, this battery life is higher than the battery capacity of our previously released smart AR glasses, while the weight and volume are almost doubled.

I think this should be the battery with the highest energy density in the world today."

“Secondly, there is the safety of the battery, especially our smart AR glasses, which are usually in contact with our skin, especially the fragile skin of the face and fragile organs like the eyes, for the longest time, so safety is the most important.

Among them, the safety of the battery is particularly important.

Although our new lithium battery is already very safe, this time we have pushed the safety of the battery to a very high level, almost touching the ceiling.

Because it is cast in one piece, the strength of the battery itself is relatively high, so it has the advantages of resistance to falls, earthquakes, high temperatures, water resistance, puncture resistance, and pressure resistance.

In this regard, we have obtained test reports from several domestic laboratories and research institutes, and they all received full marks in the safety category.

If we are more rigorous, it is not a perfect score. One organization gave it a score of 9.8. I think this is to encourage us and warn us not to be proud and continue to work hard.

As for battery life and battery life, I won’t go into details because we have never disappointed in this aspect.

Let me give you a simple example. After 10,000 hours of high-intensity block charging and discharging experiments, this battery can still retain 99.6% of its power. This is absolutely an unprecedented achievement.

Soon, this product will be available to everyone. If you have any doubts about it, you can test it yourself. We don’t play tricks, we will speak based on the data and actual usage experience. This is the most real experience for everyone.”

Speaking of this, Wu Hao showed a troubled expression and said: "How is this battery? It is naturally excellent.

There is no doubt that it represents a new direction in battery development. However, because it is so excellent, the technology cost is relatively high.

In addition to the relatively high cost of raw materials and the complicated one-piece pouring process, we have also invested huge R&D costs.

So these combined have also caused the cost of this battery to skyrocket. Although we have tried our best to reduce costs, this battery of only 19 grams costs as much as two to three hundred yuan.

At least at this stage, this price is the limit we can achieve. When mutual approval is obtained in the future and we can mass-produce, the price will drop a bit.

So don’t always think our products are expensive. You get what you pay for. It’s expensive for a reason. If we come up with an ordinary product to fool consumers and make money, I think everyone who is smart and wise will definitely agree.

I won’t buy it either.”

The research and development cost of this new super solid-state battery is higher, but it is not as exaggerated as Wu Hao said. As for the production cost, in fact, the manufacturing cost of this battery may be lower than that of traditional lithium batteries. Because it is

Direct pouring and molding eliminates many processes, which naturally reduces the cost.

The reason why Wu Hao said this is to make it easier for everyone to accept it. After all, with such good technology, the price should increase.

Secondly, Wu Hao also wants to widen the price range of this new super solid-state battery as much as possible from their previously released new lithium batteries and traditional lithium batteries.

After all, they release new batteries one after another, which has a huge impact and destructive effect on the entire industry.

Fortunately, this year Wu Hao decided to open their first-generation new lithium battery technology to the industry, which allowed these manufacturers to breathe a sigh of relief.

But the breath has not ended yet. Wu Hao and his new super solid-state batteries have begun to be put into commercial use. This has made many colleagues anxious and even resentful, which shows the grievances these people feel at this moment.

How to deal with this, facing this huge generation gap in technology products, is no longer something that marketing can solve.

Fortunately, Wu Hao was kind-hearted and first opened up the first-generation new lithium battery technology, and then appropriately increased the price of this new super solid-state battery.

In this way, when Wu Hao and the others eat fat meat, they can also chew some bones or drink some soup.
