The technological landscape of the entire world is generally determined by two aspects, one is energy, and the other is materials.
The foundation of the industrial revolution is inseparable from coal and steel, and the development of modern society is also inseparable from petroleum and metals. Humanity has spent one era burning wood, and burning coal has spent one era, and burning oil has entered another.
era.
In modern society, although electricity has become very popular and developed, the importance of oil is still irreplaceable. The decisive factor in when modern society will move towards the next new era is how humans can find a real alternative.
Petroleum's new energy.
The industrial technology in the super learning system allows Zhang Wenhao to see the future development direction of technology to a large extent. The non-renewable and polluting nature of oil determine that this energy will be abandoned in the future. However,
It will take at least a hundred years for modern society to abandon oil.
Electric energy is an effective way to replace oil. However, the generation of electric energy still relies on polluting raw materials, that is, coal. The technology to safely utilize nuclear energy still has a long way to go; wind power is not even enough to provide lighting for people around the world.
Demand; It is said that solar energy is a huge treasure, but it is extremely difficult to achieve concentrated and popularized utilization of solar energy; special power production such as hydropower and geothermal power requires unique geographical conditions.
Even though the vast majority of electricity still needs to be obtained by burning coal, this has not hindered the development of mobile power applications in countries around the world. The so-called mobile power applications are the application of electricity to various transportation fields. However, due to many reasons
The constraints have made it difficult for electricity to truly achieve free mobile applications without any restrictions.
For example, electrified railways need to rely on the dense catenary above the railway to provide power. The catenary needs to be set up as far as the electric train wants to run; the same is true for electrified subways, which either rely on catenary or run parallel to the rails.
The third power supply rail; electric vehicles also need to have a dense contact network on the head and two big pigtails.
As mentioned above, the several application methods are all direct supply of electric energy, rather than self-loading of electric energy. The fundamental reason is that today's society has not developed a truly suitable electricity storage method that can be used as a long-term driving force.
There are some conceptual pure electric vehicles in the automotive field, but basically they cannot run continuously for more than 200 kilometers. In addition, the low charging efficiency is even more unacceptable. Just imagine, who is willing to drive out?
The battery is out and you need to find a place to park and charge for more than seven or eight hours?
If supercapacitor materials are developed, it will break the embarrassing situation of electricity in the mobile field. It will be smaller in size and lighter in weight, and can store a much larger amount of electricity than batteries made of other materials. It will also have
With the characteristics of fast charging, pure electric vehicles can break the previous limitations in practical applications.
Except for Dongchen automobile engines, the heat utilization rate of common gasoline engines is only about 30%. The actual kinetic energy converted from the total heat of one kilogram of gasoline is equivalent to 4 kilowatts of electric energy at best. But if you compare the costs, you will find that.
One kilogram of gasoline, about 1.25 liters, is worth about ten yuan, while four kilowatts of electricity costs no more than two yuan, and the energy utilization rate of electric engines can reach more than 90%.
Therefore, if electricity can achieve the portability and endurance of fuel, then the scientific and technological development of the entire society can achieve an era leap!
Zhang Wenhao couldn't help but imagine that if he manufactured supercapacitor materials without considering the significance of national defense, the entire society would progress. If the importance of national defense was considered, then at least this material could make China's own
The times have developed by leaps and bounds, and what is before us is an opportunity!
Biati!
Zhang Wenhao secretly speculated that BYD would never really devote a lot of energy to this aspect. The biggest reason why they want to try to transform into this kind of fast-charging electric bus project is that they have always been in the automotive field.
They are not competitive enough, and they themselves know that going into the electric field involves taking great risks and depends on government policies. Therefore, if they can improve BYAT's competitiveness in the automotive field, then the automotive industry will inevitably continue to do so.
continues to be their core business.
Pang Xin was also shocked by Zhang Wenhao's sudden proposal to sell BYD's entire battery business to Dongchen? Doesn't Dongchen focus on automobile production? When did he become so interested in the battery field?
Pang Xin was also wondering what Zhang Wenhao meant by what he said. Did Dongchen see the business opportunities in the battery field, or did they want to use this move to divide and encroach on BYD?
The latter was quickly eliminated by Pang Xin. Dongchen now has no real competitors at all. They have such strong technological strength to support them, so how can they take a small BYD seriously?
There is no need to deliberately divide or cannibalize BYAD.
Thinking about it this way, the most likely possibility is that Dongchen saw business opportunities in this aspect.
Business opportunity?
Pang Xin couldn't help but wonder, how could there be any huge business opportunities in this industry? It's nothing more than step-by-step development. Just like the automobile industry, there are many competitors in this field. BYD's battery business has been very stable in recent years.
There are no huge business opportunities.
Just when Pang Xin couldn't figure out the reason, Zhang Wenhao spoke again and said calmly: "BYAT's transformation journey is very difficult. You must know this better than me. However, BYD's automobile manufacturing business has now
Now that we have a certain foundation, it’s better to focus on the automotive field and throw away the battery-related business.”
Pang Xin smiled bitterly and said: "The key is that our current automobile business is very unclear, otherwise, we would not think about joining the Huahe Alliance."
Zhang Wenhao nodded and said: "The Huahe Alliance can open the door to BYAT, and Dongchen, while ensuring that BYAT enjoys all the benefits of the Huahe Alliance, will reduce BYAT's productivity points from 70 to 40.
, and we can also authorize BYAT to use our own 1.4 and 2.0 engines for use in BYAT's own models. You have to know that our own engines are better than those we provide to member companies of the Huahe Alliance.
The engine needs to be a higher level."
Pang Xin was shocked! If it is true as Zhang Wenhao said, then Dongchen has indeed given Biati very good special care, and the points have been reduced from 70 to 40. In other words, after getting the Dongchen engine, they have more
They have more production capacity to produce their own products. Instead of being reduced to OEM for Dongchen, Dongchen has to license their own two classic engines, namely 1.4 and 2.0, which are two outstanding engines that can be used by more than 80% of civilian vehicles.
Engine, in this way, BYAT's competitiveness will be stronger than that of other member companies of the Huahe Alliance.
Thinking of this, Pang Xin suppressed the excitement in his heart and blurted out: "What are Dongchen's conditions?"
Zhang Wenhao said word for word: "Dongchen will acquire BYAT's entire battery industry business in cash at a price that exceeds the market price by 30%. And it is a 100% equity acquisition."
Pang Xin didn't think it was harsh. BYAT's battery business has not always been very profitable. Otherwise, they would not have left the battery business, which started earlier and had a deeper foundation, instead of concentrating on it and branching out.
Most of the energy is devoted to automobile production. If there were no Dongchen and no foreign-funded enterprises cutting prices, BYD's core business would definitely be automobile production rather than batteries.
If the battery business is sold to Dongchen, it will be given special care within the Huahe Alliance, which will definitely be a good thing for BYD!
Moreover, Dongchen has plenty of cash flow. They want to acquire BYAT in cash at 130% of the market price, which is equivalent to BYAT making a price difference of more than 800 million yuan at once! In addition, the original market value of batteries is nearly 2.7 billion yuan.
In terms of business, BYAT can exchange 3.5 billion in cash in a short period of time, and this 3.5 billion can be used to invest in the field of automobile production. With its special treatment in the Huahe Alliance, it can fully focus on automobile manufacturing.
The temptation is definitely big enough. If my idea of transformation is to cross the river by feeling for stones in the dark, then the conditions given by Dongchen are an extremely bright and smooth road.
Pang Xin was afraid that Zhang Wenhao was joking with him, so he hurriedly asked: "Mr. Zhang, are you representing yourself or Dongchen?"
After all, Pang Xin couldn't believe that Zhang Wenhao, as a representative, could make decisions for the entire Dongchen.
Zhang Wenhao said very seriously: "Here, I fully represent Dongchen, and I can promise you that as long as you nod, all the conditions I told you will be fulfilled!"
Pang Xin was overjoyed and said hurriedly: "Then I will go back to Shenzhen tonight and have a good communication with the board of directors!"
...
After the meeting of the Ministry of Commerce, Director Liu was very surprised by Zhang Wenhao's performance today. He knew that the real person in charge of Dongchen was Zhang Wenhao, and he seemed to have improvised an offer to acquire BYAT's new battery energy business today.
The section made Director Liu a little confused.
Why is Zhang Wenhao interested in BYAT's battery business? Is it because the team behind him wants to develop in this field?
If this is really the case, then this news is really great. Director Liu holds a sensitive and important position and has a very clear understanding of the world's industrial structure. Now, no matter which industry he is in, he is waiting for a breakthrough. I am afraid, but also
A breakthrough.
In the PC era, who dared to imagine a portable notebook computer? When it actually appeared, it brought a major breakthrough in the industry. And precisely because of the arrival of this breakthrough, the leading companies have experienced tremendous development, falling behind
However, Renhou's enterprises suffered a huge blow and only recovered after several years.
As far as the current civilian battery industry is concerned, if we don’t go too far, just for mobile devices such as mobile phones, laptops, tablets, etc., once they can double their battery life without increasing their size and weight, this technology will be enough.
It has brought a huge breakthrough to the entire industry!
Director Liu could not have imagined that what Zhang Wenhao was brewing was a breakthrough on a large scale. Once the time was right, he might even lead the progress of the entire era.
After the meeting, Director Liu met with Zhang Wenhao privately in the hotel. He couldn't help asking his doubts and said: "Comrade Xiao Zhang, you are going to acquire BYAT's battery business today. Do you already have a certain knowledge of batteries?"
Advanced technology?”
Zhang Wenhao nodded without concealment and said: "There are some new technologies waiting to be implemented."
Officer Liu hurriedly asked: "Is it about batteries?"
Zhang Wenhao nodded and said: "That's right."
Officer Liu asked again: "Is it a battery? Or a fuel cell?"
Officer Liu's question let Zhang Wenhao know that he was also half of the experts. Batteries are a common field in today's society, but fuel cells are a new field that developed countries are constantly exploring. Its scientific and technological significance is very important, but
, due to many restrictions, it has never been able to take shape.
Zhang Wenhao shook his head slightly, smiled, and said: "What Dongchen wants to do is in the aspect of batteries."
"Oh..." Director Liu's expression couldn't hide his disappointment. He said, "Since Dongchen is interested, just go ahead and do it. If you need my help, just tell me."
Zhang Wenhao knew that Director Liu valued fuel cells in his heart and looked down on batteries. This is because the current technological vision is too limited. They feel that fuel cells that produce their own electricity have wider applications and are more convenient. However, batteries focus on storing electricity.
, once its storage capacity reaches a breakthrough, it will be much easier to use than a fuel cell that generates its own electricity.
To promote fuel cells, we must first promote infrastructure construction. Adding fuel to fuel cells is a very high-end technology. There are less than a hundred facilities in the world that can meet this demand, not even as many as the number of gas stations in a prefecture-level city.
Many. Moreover, maintaining the operation of a fuel cell requires a large number of objective conditions, so that the use cost of this kind of thing is very high, and the cost of its own construction is also astonishingly high. However, this is not the case with batteries using supercapacitor materials.
It is simply a high-capacity battery. It does not require any special maintenance or any high-tech terminal equipment. To quickly replenish a large amount of power, all it needs is a high-voltage circuit and a charging interface. The battery life process is very simple.
, only need to connect the high-voltage circuit to the battery.
Only the simplest, most reliable and easiest-to-operate technology is the most practical technology. Otherwise, just like today's nuclear power, it sounds great but is extremely difficult to operate.
It's satisfying, but there are many hidden dangers.
It’s no wonder that Director Liu is not interested in batteries. In fact, he could not imagine how powerful the performance of supercapacitor materials is. He could not even imagine that the smartphone in his pocket needs to be charged once a day.
A full charge takes 68 hours, but if the battery is made of supercapacitor material, then the same use method can at least give it a battery life of more than 5 days, and the full charge time is too fucking sci-fi. Put the charger
Plug the plug into the socket and listen to a song. The battery is already fully charged before the intro is finished.
He could not even imagine that a pure electric vehicle made of this material could have a driving range of at least 400 kilometers, and that such a large-capacity battery would only take less than two minutes to charge, which is the same as filling up a tank of gas with a gas station.
The time is similar, or even slightly faster, and the cost of a fast charging terminal that can handle such a large-capacity battery is even less than one-fifth of a gas pump.
If this material is used to transform the subway system, then a subway line with a length of no more than 100 kilometers does not need to install any power supply equipment. It only needs to add a fast charging system at one end. When operating at full load, a single charge will last at least
Can run more than 100 kilometers.
If electric buses are built, the bus operating costs will be reduced by at least 70%. If used to build conventional submarines, it will be a bit of a pain, because ordinary diesel generators cannot quickly replenish such a large amount of power, but the battery life
The ability will also increase several times.
However, the most direct use is to combine it with Dongchen Automobile. With this material, Dongchen can launch hybrid vehicles and pure electric vehicles that are truly environmentally friendly and economically significant. In the field of civil transportation, Dongchen family
, it completely occupied the market of all other competitors.
Before this material was actually created, Director Liu could not have imagined the significance of this. He quickly turned over this article and turned to Zhang Wenhao and said: "Dongchen's DCC1800A high-power
The diesel engine has passed all NORINCO tests. The performance of the engine on active main battle tanks is quite amazing. The power performance has been greatly improved. It can be said to be the best in the world. The military will soon issue formal approval and procurement documents.
According to the list, the initial purchase quantity can reach at least 5,000 units."
Zhang Wenhao nodded and smiled and said: "Five thousand units are really not worth mentioning for that production line."
Officer Liu nodded and said: "Yes, five thousand units is a little less, but you have to know that in the field of national defense, there are not many single engines used at all. Nowadays, the number of the latest main battle tanks with actual combat effectiveness is
It does not exceed one thousand, and if the number of older tanks still in use is added in, the total does not exceed ten thousand."
Zhang Wenhao nodded and said: "In that case, I will use this production line to produce high-power diesel engines for civilian use. Many heavy industries and heavy truck companies need better diesel engines."
In the field of heavy industry and heavy trucks, diesel engines are the only power configuration. In addition, gasoline engines and electric engines have no use at all. The biggest benchmark to measure their manufacturing standards is the level of the engine. Zhang Wenhao has no energy to deal with it.
In the field of complete vehicle production, however, he can license his engines to XCMG, LiuGong and Sany Heavy Industry. If companies like Zoomlion have significantly improved their engines, then they will be incompetent with Liebherr abroad.
The gap between the current flow will be infinitely narrowed, and even lead to overtaking.
Director Liu said: "This, I want to convey to the senior management on your behalf. If they have no objection, then you can freely use the remaining production capacity of this production line."
"That's good." Zhang Wenhao smiled slightly and said, "Then I'll help you." (To be continued...)
