Chapter 594 Three Safety of Lithium Batteries
This time, Jobs came to visit the OEM factory.
Compared with history, Mr. Qiao returned to Apple a year earlier, which means that he faces greater financial pressure and needs to seek breakthroughs and lower costs.
As the leader in product design, it is normal for Apple to choose to enter the MP3 playback field at this moment.
After all, Yuanxin has launched a concept and has even paved the way for MP3 channels.
It's not difficult to guess.
...
At the Hongyuan OEM factory, Su Yuanshan and Jiang Qingchuan personally accompanied Mr. Qiao to visit the production line, and Su Yuanshan even asked him to visit the Yuanxin Vidoo5M assembly line very "generously".
When he saw young skilled workers completing various processes in an orderly manner, Mr. Qiao was silent for a long time. After walking out of the workshop, he asked Su Yuanshan how much the salary of these young people was.
"If you work more overtime, your average monthly salary can be $600." Jiang Qingchuan replied to Su Yuanshan: "Generally speaking, it is more than $400 to $600."
Jobs took a breath without leaving any trace and continued to ask: "What about the average salary in the mainland?"
"This depends on where..." Su Yuanshan replied with a smile: "Overall, we are a backward developing country after all."
After hearing this, Jobs smiled: "Then why did Yuanxin's vidoo5m achieve such good sales when it was launched in the mainland?"
"Because the population base is large, Mr. Qiao. Don't forget that this is a country with a population of 1.2 billion and its annual GDP maintains a growth rate of more than 8%..."
Jobs nodded, agreeing with Su Yuanshan's statement. After a moment, he asked again: "But how long can such a growth rate last?"
Su Yuanshan pursed his lips, looked over the factory area, and looked at the tall buildings rising from the ground in the special zone. After a few seconds of silence, he smiled and said, "At least ten years, there is one?"
"Well... that's also an amazing achievement." Mr. Qiao nodded, pondered for a few seconds and looked at Jiang Qingchuan: "Mr. Jiang, can we find a place to discuss the OEM matters of other products separately?"
This requirement...of course, it cannot be possible.
Jiang Qingchuan nodded with a smile.

Since the two sides want to discuss cooperation, there is no need for Su Yuanshan to continue to follow. After the two sides agreed to continue the meeting the next afternoon, Su Yuanshan turned around and went to the Soxin Lithium Battery, which was separated by a wall.
Relying on commercial lithium battery solutions and technology, Soxin not only won the National Science and Technology Achievement Award last year, but also won many awards from GWY to the province and then to the special zone.
What is the best Sino-foreign joint venture, advanced private enterprise unit, scientific and technological innovation demonstration park, etc.... The certificates are all hanging on the walls.
Of course, taking photos with many leaders who came to inspect were indispensable, with a strong sense of state-owned enterprises.
However, as the certificate says, it is currently the place where there are the most foreigners in China, besides Yuanxin - well, it is actually Sony's lithium battery team.
"Mr. Takeuchi, are you still used to it here?"
In the hall, Su Yuanshan shook hands with Wang Chuanfu first, then turned to the Sony Lithium Battery team's head of the Special Administrative Region, and greeted him.
Takeuchi Heiyuki is the most capable subordinate of Nishimio, the inventor of Sony lithium batteries. In addition to witnessing the birth of commercial lithium batteries, he has also participated in the standard customization of Sony lithium batteries.
Sony sent him to lead the group, and you can imagine how much he attached to Sony.
Of course, Sony specializes in polymer lithium batteries, while Sony's local laboratory specializes in 18650 lithium batteries. In order not to be lame, Su Yuanshan has also asked Li Xiao's team to follow Sony to conduct joint research.
"It's very good here, very used to it." Heiichi Takeuchi speaks Mandarin a bit slow, but he can hear it clearly.
Su Yuanshan smiled and then shook his hand with Cheng Peng - this long-haired literary young man who was on the shore of Weiming Lake back then, now and his flat head with a spirited flat head, is extremely capable.
"Shan General."
"Haha, Senior Brother Cheng, I'm so lucky."
"Hi, that's OK. Why not be as good as Li Xiao - By the way, when will you call her back? I'll complain to me every day."
"Cough... wait a little longer." Su Yuanshan is most afraid of Li Xiao giving up. It's not that no one can replace Li Xiao's work there now - mainly because Li Xiao comes back, but there are not many places to accommodate her.
Not to mention the identity of Su Yuanshan's childhood sweetheart who had seen "bare butt", she was the "founder" of Yuanxin lithium battery project, so she was destined to be unable to arrange a random position and send her away.
"Let's go, let's go to the reception room for a seat."
This time, Su Yuanshan came here temporarily, so everyone had no intention of reporting on work. They just used it as a daily chat and briefly introduced the current situation in the factory.
Thanks to the express train of the OEM vertical procurement system and Yuanxin's spare no effort in promoting and driving - yes, Yuanxin has already shouted the slogan of charging for half an hour and standing for the whole day in the promotion of Vidoo5 series mobile phones.
To be fair, in the era of feature phones, especially for feature phones that only have a call function and don’t even have a greedy snake, there is a P battery life...
But I couldn't hold on to the far core and started rolling.
What's more, compared to the mainstream nickel-cadmium nickel-hydrogen batteries before, the most exquisite thing about lithium batteries is that they have no memory effect and can be pulled as they as they are rushed, and there is no need to wait until they are completely out of electricity before they dare to charge.
Under this circumstance, Soxon's performance has increased significantly in the past six months, and foreign battery companies have also spent huge amounts of money to invest in the field of polymer lithium batteries.
"Then what do you think about next?" Su Yuanshan naturally believed in Wang Chuanfu. Although this person had a poor aesthetic sense, he had no idea about market insight and grasp of the technical direction. He was just a habitual person.
"Continue to deep-root safety technology, and at the same time... Mr. Duan's charging for half an hour and stood by all day reminded me that I felt that we could put some effort into the charging speed." Wang Chuanfu said as he looked at the two people in charge of R&D around him: "As for lithium batteries themselves, increasing density can definitely increase battery capacity, which is undoubtedly. And now it is far from the limit."
"But just like the chip manufacturing process, the density will eventually reach the upper limit. At that time, if there is no breakthrough in new materials, if you want to increase the energy output per unit time, you may have to think of a solution from the charging time."
Takeuchi Heiyuki and Cheng Peng nodded at the same time. It seemed that these two people also agreed with this.
Su Yuanshan also recognized it very much. However, in his memory, it seems that the fast charging technology was developed by a mobile phone factory.
Of course, no matter who does it, at least no one does it now. Duan Yongping's slogan is just to emphasize the concept of "half hour" and demonstrate the advantage of lithium batteries being used and being able to use.
"This direction is good. After it is made, it can be used as an authorization plan to increase competitiveness. But do you have any clues?"
At this time, Cheng Peng smiled and said, "It's just to put pressure within the scope of safety permitting. It should be enough to write an agreement at that time."
"That's OK, but be aware that the most important thing about lithium batteries is safety, safety, safety."
Su Yuanshan repeated three safety issues in succession, and said it very seriously: "As long as a natural or explosion occurs, it will bring immeasurable negative impacts - don't forget that we are now the leader in the lithium battery industry and the pioneer of this market."
"Now our opponent is cost and user recognition. But our enemies... are traditional rechargeable batteries such as nickel-hydrogen and nickel-chromium that represent backward technology. As long as there is an accident in the lithium battery, the enemy will seize the opportunity and attack it on a large scale."
Seeing that Su Yuanshan rarely explained the matter in this serious tone, it would be fine if Takeuchi Heiyuki, but Cheng Peng and Wang Chuanfu looked aloof and knew the importance of this matter in Su Yuanshan's mind.
"Don't worry, Mr. Shan." Wang Chuanfu said in a deep voice: "Although no one can guarantee that there will be no accident, but one day we will definitely react immediately. I will set up a special team to prevent such accidents - Oh no, I will be responsible directly!"
"Yes." Su Yuanshan exhaled softly: "It's the concept promotion period, and you can just stare at it to highlight the importance of safety."
...
After chatting for a while, Su Yuanshan simply had a meal. It was not until the next morning that he returned to Yuanxin Internet Center.
Last year, he stayed here until the OEM and Suoxin were on track before returning to the provincial capital.
After half a year, his office remained the same.
However, since he came here to accompany Mr. Qiao this time, Su Yuanshan was too lazy to turn on the computer and pretend to work. Instead, he walked around the Internet center and checked everyone's work progress in a fake way.
Finally, he returned to Zhang Xiaolong's office and prepared to chat for a while and continued to have a meal. After that, he was about to meet Mr. Qiao in the afternoon.
Just as they were talking about Ding Lei’s listing, Zhang Xiaolong answered a call and then looked at Su Yuanshan with a strange expression.
"What's wrong with you?" Su Yuanshan was a little puzzled.
Zhang Xiaolong covered the microphone: "Lao Qiu doesn't have your phone?"
"Lao Qiu? Which Lao Qiu?"
"Cough... Mr. Qiu Aihua, Mr. Qiu, asked if you have time, and invited you to have a meal at noon."
"Oh! Yes, yes!" Su Yuanshan slapped his forehead and laughed.
Qiu Aihua, once one of the bosses of the computer city of the Special Administrative Region, was Ma Yun's classmate. He accompanied Ma Yun to promote the company's yellow pages, and of course he also had the mentality of "everyone works on the Internet, let's get to know each other." As a result, after Ma Yun saw Su Yuanshan, there was no more text. Instead, Qiu Aihua was attracted by Su Yuanshan at first sight and recommended him to Chengdian Hi-Tech.
Now, with the support of Chengdian Hi-Tech Board of Directors - to be precise, President Zhou, Qiu Aihua has gained a firm foothold in Chengdian Hi-Tech, which has many mountains and has begun to carry out drastic reforms and expansions.
Su Yuanshan didn't know what the current situation of Chengdian Hi-Tech, but he knew that He Wei seemed to have been in contact with there recently, or to help...
