Because the new high-end flagship phone will not be launched until next year, even if we know that the price of metal all-solid-state batteries produced by Xingyuan Battery is the same as that of lithium batteries, there will not be a significant increase in the price of mobile phones. For the time being, we can only use it first
On Xingyao mobile phone.
It’s time to test the waters first and see how the market responds to this solid-state battery.
After solving the battery issue, Peng Xiangqian didn't stay too long in Ren Yuanwei's office and immediately left for the design department.
Be prepared to let them change part of the model's design.
After all, the solid-state batteries produced by Xingyuan Battery adopt the unified specification mark. If they want to use it on Xingyao mobile phones, they can only choose to take the initiative to comply with it.
Especially judging from Xu Lei's performance during the call just now, there is not much hope for Xingyuan batteries to be customized to specifications.
——
at the same time.
Binjiang City.
Longhu High-tech Park.
In the president's office of the headquarters building, Xu Lei looked slightly lost in thought after finishing the video call with Ren Yuanwei.
Warwick is not the first company to express purchasing intentions.
As soon as the almost all-metal solid-state test parameters were announced, he received a call from Yu Hongliang, who said that he would customize solid-state batteries with special specifications for use in the military industry.
As a result, part of the production capacity needs to be withdrawn from the base to complete Yu Hongliang's order.
In addition, Ren Yuanwei has placed an order for tens of millions of mobile phone batteries, and Xingyuan Battery has basically been unable to cooperate with other mobile phone brands this year.
Under this situation, it becomes important to build new large-scale battery production bases.
"It seems that the new base will be put on the agenda!"
When his thoughts reached this point, Xu Lei immediately made up his mind. After murmuring this sentence softly and thoughtfully, he immediately shouted to Chen Shihe in the office.
"Shihe."
"Go and contact Director Li."
"Just say that our company is planning to build several large-scale battery production bases in surrounding cities and let him plan the regional land."
Binjiang City now has the Longfor High-tech Park Data Center and the first production base of Xingyuan Battery. Although it is still a second-tier city, it is well-known around the world.
It may not be easy to find a suitable area to build a large-scale battery production base.
Therefore, Xu Lei plans to target several cities around Binjiang City and build several large-scale battery production bases in these prefecture-level cities to form a special industrial economic zone, which can reduce his own investment and at the same time boost the local economy.
develop.
You must know that in a prefecture-level city like this where few well-known companies have settled in, the most important thing is a large industrial zone.
Key land is also very cheap.
It would be most appropriate for Li Ming to discuss with the leaders of these prefecture-level cities.
I believe that no one will refuse the entry of technology-related industries in the future. After all, this has huge benefits for a city.
After hearing Xu Lei's instructions, Chen Shihe naturally did not dare to hesitate and responded quickly.
"It's Mr. Xu, I'll do it right away."
As he said that, he got up and walked outside.
But as soon as I reached the door of the office, a familiar voice came from behind me: "Wait a minute, and by the way, please contact Liu Gaowen and ask him to come to my office."
"Okay Mr. Xu."
Chen Shihe stopped, turned around and responded again, then exited the office without any impatience.
As the person in charge of the construction project of the Longhu High-tech Park project, Liu Gaowen has nothing to criticize in terms of quality or progress. Xu Lei is quite relieved to let him continue to be responsible for the construction of the battery production base.
It is believed that with sufficient funding, the new battery production base can be put into use soon.
After giving these instructions, Xu Lei got up and headed to the research center.
Building a new battery base will definitely require building more intelligent production lines in the future, and Hu Xinren needs to be prepared for this in advance.
…
The issue of metal all-solid-state batteries was like a strong wind. It set off a wave on the Internet and then receded quickly. It did not attract continued attention from users, and even the next day there were no related hot searches.
In the final analysis.
Or is it because everyone thinks that the cost of solid-state batteries is too high.
Even if Xingyuan battery improves its storage capacity and lifespan, it will not be commercialized in a short time.
So it has nothing to do with them.
Naturally I won't pay too much attention to it.
But just when the entire network returned to calm and major battery manufacturers continued to plan for future development prospects, an announcement from the official account of Xingyao Mobile shocked the eyes of many people.
It's like throwing a piece of metallic sodium into the clear river water, causing it to explode instantly and produce a huge noise.
The network, which had just calmed down, exploded again.
Warwick Technology officially announced that it will establish a cooperative relationship with Xingyuan Battery and use the metal solid-state batteries developed by Xingyuan Battery on new models.
No one thought that the newly developed solid-state batteries would enter the market so quickly.
It's simply unbelievable.
At the same time, more people are worried about Xingyao's decision, believing that the new models to be launched suddenly switch to solid-state batteries, which will lead to a significant increase in prices and affect sales.
For this reason, some users even said on the spot that they would refuse to buy Xingyao mobile phones.
Especially someone who had already decided to wait for the launch of the new Xingyao mobile phone to buy, but suddenly something like this happened, which means that he may have to spend more money to buy this phone by then. It's strange that he was in a good mood.
After all, it’s not easy to make money as a worker.
If they really want to pay more for the high battery life and battery life, then they would rather use traditional lithium batteries.
So in this case, the number of views on related topics skyrocketed like a rocket.
In the end, Xingyuan Battery was once again on the hot search list of major website platforms after a day. In any comment area containing relevant content, you can see a large number of comments and replies.
"The cost and price of solid-state batteries indicate that they are not suitable for commercial use at all. Why does Warwick still purchase them for use in Xingyao's new mobile phones?"
“I feel like this step is a bit strange!”
"I really like the Xingyao mobile phone. It has good performance and is affordable. Who will buy it when the price goes up?"
"I hope Director Ren can give up this idea, otherwise he will really lose his fans."
"Although I like Future Technology and Mr. Xu very much, it depends on whether there is any surplus in my wallet. I definitely can't support it this time."
"It seems that we can only wait for the flagship phone or Xiaomi phone later."
…
Of course, there are also many people who are well aware of the relationship between Future Technology and Warwick, and are not surprised by Warwick's purchase of Xingyuan batteries. Although they may not be able to support it with actual actions, they are still relatively gentle in words.
"Future Technology has helped Huawei solve chip design software and high-end chip OEM production. It is normal for Director Ren to support Xingyuan batteries now, but it is a pity that they are used for Xingyao."
"When the time comes, those who are capable should support it. After all, Xingyuan Battery is also for the development of domestic battery technology."
"I don't believe how expensive it is. As long as the price is no more than a flagship phone, I will buy it directly."
"Must support."
"The most annoying thing is playing games with the cable plugged in. This time I just changed to a mobile phone with a durable battery."
…
As the popularity of this matter gradually spreads, major mobile phone brands and companies are also paying close attention to it, wondering what consequences Xingyao will have as the first person to eat crabs.
Since Xingyao is a mid-range mobile phone brand, it has little impact on Pingguo, so they are relatively mediocre.
No action was taken on this.
Moreover, it has won the high-end market competition with Huawei's flagship phone, so it does not pay attention to a mid-range mobile phone brand.
However, Xiaomi specially held a company core meeting.
Lei Jun is in a good mood today. It can be said that it is the most comfortable day in recent times.
Because he finally heard the good news.
Starting from last year, Xiaomi mobile phone rushed into the high-end mobile phone market and was defeated. Then it wanted to operate in the mid-range mobile phone market with peace of mind, but it encountered the Star Mobile phone equipped with Tamron 980.
The sales volume for the whole quarter can only be described as terrible.
It's just that the unlucky mother opened the door for the unlucky person. Unlucky as hell.
For this reason, Lei Jun had to put his market focus on relatively backward areas overseas and sell his own mobile phones there.
But this time, in order to repay its debt to Future Technology, Warwick purchased the latest metal all-solid-state battery launched by Xingyuan Battery.
Originally this has nothing to do with them, but these batteries are going to be used in Shining Star's new mobile phone. It is completely conceivable what kind of scene will happen.
It will inevitably change from being popular before to being ignored and completely falling from the altar.
Under this situation, it is Xiaomi's turn to exert its efforts. As long as they can seize this opportunity, Xiaomi's sales will definitely usher in a wave of explosive growth.
"Re-adjust and move the launch date of our new mobile phone forward, and strive to open it for sale on the same day as the Shining Star mobile phone."
"Since ancient times, green leaves have been lined with red flowers."
"This time we will be the red flower."
Imperial Capital.
Xiaomi headquarters building.
Lei Jun was sitting in the main seat in the core conference room, looking around at the many subordinates on both sides, and explained the matter very solemnly, with a strong confidence in his tone.
As for other people, they naturally understand what this opportunity means to Xiaomi, and they will definitely not relax at this time.
They immediately nodded in unison and answered.
"It's the chairman."
Until the end of this brief meeting, Lei Jun was still immersed in his own thinking, thinking that Ren Yuanwei made a very wrong decision this time and should not damage the reputation of his product in order to support future technology.
As for the affairs between these two domestic mobile phone brand companies, Xu Lei was not very interested, and he did not take the initiative to understand the situation.
Because he was discussing the construction of battery bases with Li Ming and the leaders of other surrounding cities.
Finally, after several rounds of research, it was decided that the first phase of the project would temporarily build three large-scale battery production bases, with a planned annual production capacity of 1.5 million 100-kilowatt-hour electric power batteries.
