459 [Domestic Tesla?]

Song Weiyang hurried back to Shenghai from Rongcheng to attend a ceremony.

Historically, Shenghai BYD Industrial Park was not built until 2003, and the park address was located in Songjiang. However, due to the strategic cooperation between BYD and Shenzhou Technology, a battery factory was built in Shenghai very early. Now, Yangpu officials are attracting investment, setting up BYD Shenghai Branch in advance, and the industrial park is built next to Changyang Valley.

Yangpu's leaders were very proud and directly renamed the "Changyang Valley High-tech Park" to "Shenzhou Industrial Park" and expanded the park area to 600 acres. In the nearby area, a shopping center and several residential buildings were built in later generations, and now all of them have been granted to Shenzhou Technology Company. The government even took the initiative to relocate an old state-owned enterprise to make a living.

At the same time, a large area north of Changyang Valley built several communities, several companies and a hotel in later generations, and are now all granted to BYD to build an industrial park, covering a total area of ​​500 acres.

The reason why he is so generous is that the factory area of ​​Shenzhou Technology is not enough, and he intends to build the new factory area in northern Jiangsu. When Yangpu's leaders heard the news, they immediately came to try to keep it and handed over all the surrounding land to Shenzhou Technology in minutes.

Why did the district leaders didn’t like BYD before, but now they have taken the initiative to send out olive branches and directly approved 500 acres of land?

Because BYD is awesome now!

The medium-sized company with sales of less than 100 million yuan at that time has grown into a super giant, occupying 40% of the global market share of nickel-cadmium batteries. BYD has set up branches in Europe, the United States and Port City, and has become Motorola's lithium battery supplier, and Nokia is also preparing to use BYD's batteries.

BYD is like its chairman, perfectly interpreting what a poor boy counterattack is.

Song Weiyang was holding a shovel wearing big red flowers in his hand. Next to it was BYD's boss Wang Chuanfu, and the top leader in the district.

The master shouted that the auspicious time had arrived, and the three of them inserted the shovel into the soil. They dug a hole symbolically, and the workers carried the foundation stone into the hole. The groundbreaking ceremony of the industrial park completed the most important link.

After a few dozen minutes of lively media reporters dispersed, and Wang Chuanfu invited Song Weiyang and his leaders to have a meal.

Until around 1:00 pm, the leaders were also sent away. Wang Chuanfu smiled and said, "We will be neighbors in the future. Thanks to Boss Song for pulling me."

"Mr. Wang is so polite. Our cooperation is a win-win situation. There is no problem of who will help who will." Song Weiyang said.

Back then, Xiaolingtong purchased BYD batteries, which was the second large order that BYD has obtained since its establishment and is also a crucial order in recent years. Now Xiaolingtong's cumulative sales have reached more than 6 million units, and each Xiaolingtong uses BYD batteries. The profit provided by BYD makes a lot of money.

At this time, BYD was more awesome than in the same period of history, at least it had much more funds.

Of course, these orders are only part of countless orders for BYD. Thanks to the Asian financial crisis, global battery prices plummeted by 20% to 40%, Japanese manufacturers are on the verge of loss, while BYD's low-cost advantages are taken advantage of, Philips, Panasonic, Sony, Motorola... all chose to cooperate with BYD, and in three years it has become the world's number one nickel-chromium battery, and is impacting the dominant position of lithium batteries of Japanese companies (fourth in the world).

Wang Chuanfu said: "I still have to thank Boss Song. When Xiao Lingtong placed the order, it was BYD's most confused time. It was too exaggerating to say that helping him, but it must be a timely help."

Song Weiyang smiled and said, "When will BYD launch a computer motherboard battery? Now China's computers use foreign products. The motherboard battery is expensive and expensive. I'm waiting for BYD to help us reduce costs."

"Technical research and development are underway," Wang Chuanfu said. "Computer motherboard batteries are lithium compound batteries. BYD's current main focus is lithium-ion batteries, and it will take some time to master the relevant technologies."

"Then I wish BYD a smooth development," said Song Weiyang.

Wang Chuanfu said: "Borrowing the auspicious words of Boss Song."

Song Weiyang suddenly said: "Mr. Wang, have you ever thought about producing cars?"

"Car?" Wang Chuanfu smiled and said, "How dare I think about it. Cars need production licenses. I am a poor child from the countryside, without background or access, how could I get a car license?"

"I mean electric vehicles." Song Weiyang said.

Wang Chuanfu was stunned: "With current battery technology, it may not be enough to provide enough power."

Song Weiyang said: "Of course a battery cannot do, but it can combine thousands of batteries. Then build an intelligent system, and even if some batteries are broken, the car can continue to drive."

"This is a good idea." Wang Chuanfu nodded.

In fact, General Motors has been making electric vehicles for a long time, and it has been put on the market and can last 140 kilometers. However, Song Weiyang and Wang Chuanfu don’t understand cars, and have never heard of this news at all. They thought electric vehicles were an unprecedented innovation.

Song Weiyang said: "If Mr. Wang is interested, we can open a car factory together. There is no need to make it too big. Just think it's just spending money to play. I have already thought of the brand name of the car. I've named it after Nikola Tesla, the inventor of AC electricity, and it's called 'Tesla'!"

Wang Chuanfu really believed it and went in. He thought about it carefully and asked, "How much does Boss Song plan to invest?"

"A small-scale fight, one person invests 2 million yuan. You are responsible for the development of battery technology, and I am responsible for the electric vehicle license plate," said Song Weiyang. "Put Mr. Li from Geely Auto in, and he also invests 2 million yuan, and is responsible for the construction of cars. We split the shares equally, each of which holds 30% of the shares. Another car engineer is recruited to be responsible for the project, and the remaining 10% of the shares will be given to the engineer to hold."

"You mean it is true or false, why do I sound like I'm playing?" Wang Chuanfu is a serious person and cannot run a business with a cynical attitude.

Song Weiyang asked: "Do you lack that 2 million?"

Wang Chuanfu shook his head and said, "No shortage."

"That's fine, it doesn't matter if the project fails," Song Weiyang smiled. "If the project is successful, you may be able to overtake and have a place in the world's automobile manufacturing field."

"Well..." Wang Chuanfu hesitated.

Song Weiyang instigated: "Take a try, and the bicycle will turn into a motorcycle."

Wang Chuanfu was amused: "Okay, I will play with you once."

Song Weiyang said: "By the way, Mr. Wang, are you interested in joining the Taurus Club?"

"What will Taurus be?" Wang Chuanfu was obviously ignorant.

Song Weiyang explained the specific situation and Wang Chuanfu immediately agreed.
