Chapter 546： future energy
In addition to this relatively mild criticism, there are also more shrill voices.
Chen William himself, of course, dismissed these voices, but whether it was the people around him or other members of the laboratory, they would inevitably be affected by these voices, which would increase the pressure.
Now that the GB1 battery has been successful and has achieved far more than expected test results, it is the best response to those questioning and ironic voices before. All of a sudden, the members of William's lab let out a sigh of relief, feeling that they had never felt before. High spirits.
During this period of time, the news that William's laboratory successfully developed a new type of battery began to be known.
However, most of the media responded that there would be reports, but they did not say they were too excited.
It is also because of Chen William's laboratory that it took a short time from the news of its establishment to the research results, which is quite suspicious, and in recent years, many laboratories around the world have claimed There has been a "major breakthrough" in the research of the new battery, and the published results, some of which are even more exaggerated than this one in William's laboratory...
It can be said that painting cakes is really a traditional skill of many scientific research institutions around the world. Otherwise, some advanced conceptual research is still not easy to get financial support, at least continuous financial support, it is very difficult to obtain, so it can fool a big head Is an…
For example, Chen William, who has turned from a super rich to a researcher, has not been developing for a long time in the laboratory, and it is considered to be a hype concept. It is really normal.
The fact is that in the research of graphene batteries, many achievements have greatly surpassed the current lithium batteries in one aspect. It is not too difficult to say, but if it is practical application, I am afraid it is far worse.
And William Chen's GB1 battery is also considered by many to be the case.
It's just that some people can't wait to know more details, such as his good buddy Musk.
After hearing the news that the new battery research and development in William's laboratory had achieved results, this man came to Atlanta without saying a word.
When William Chen received Musk's call, he was about to arrive at the laboratory, well, there were still about ten minutes...
Seeing Dalula in front of him at this moment, the hand holding the back of the chair was already a little weak, so he stopped wasting time.
Severe storm.
By the time Musk arrived at William's lab, William Chen was already dressed and showed him around, leaving Dalula slumped in William Chen's exclusive lounge.
"Man, why didn't you call me before, it was too sudden."
Indeed, Musk's trip was really a sudden attack, which caught William Chen by surprise. Could it be...
The other party didn't know anything about Chen William's divergent thinking, and he said rather proudly:
"I know you, William, you must have come up with something good, you know, batteries are very important to Tesla cars."
"That's right, I'll take you to see the GB1 first, which is the new thing I made, but you have to be mentally prepared. Although the performance of this battery is satisfactory, it will take time to apply it to the car. "
The two people were talking, and they had come to the battery testing laboratory. After receiving the latest test results handed over by the staff, William Chen glanced at them and handed them to Musk.
"As long as it's good enough, I'll be patient, but William, our Tesla needs stronger batteries."
Speaking, Musk carefully looked at the test data on the paper, his eyes slowly widened:
"God, this is… crazy."
…
Of course, it's not just Tesla that needs GB1 batteries. Zero Smart's products, including AlphaGo, Rimac electric supercars, and even smart bracelets, are all ready to target this battery with several times the performance and lighter weight. The new battery, the introduction of the Pro model.
In 2013, just after New Year's Day, the investment fund of the Atlas Fund managed by Zhou Fan completed another investment business.
The Atlas Investment Fund invested US$180 million in cash to invest in Huaguo DJI, a leader in the drone field, holding a 30% stake.
This investment is also the financing that DJI agreed to after seeing the super performance of the GB1 battery and getting a promise that they would be among the first batch of the battery.
As a giant of future drones, DJI is still far from being as good as a few years later, but William Chen naturally understands its potential, and the application of drones is very extensive, which is a very necessary investment area.
Of course, CATL, the battery manufacturer that William Chen invested in earlier, is the most sensitive to the news of the GB1 battery. Their founders also rushed to Atlanta at the first time, hoping to know the detailed performance of the GB1 battery. .
In terms of battery manufacturing, the CATL era has already accumulated a lot. Therefore, it is also a good solution to authorize manufacturers to manufacture or manufacture this new type of battery under the condition of mastering the GB1 patent.
But the problem is that although there is investment in the Ningde era, Chen William holds only 20% of the shares, which does not guarantee him more benefits; and the Chinese background in the Ningde era will also play a key role in the battery. Technically, the American side has doubts.
William Chen will not be too constrained by the views of the American side, but being able to insist on his own technology authorization is one aspect, and whether it is worth paying the price is another question. Just 20% of the shares is not enough to make William Chen paid so much.
And in the high-tech industry itself, in the initial production of products, the investment in scientific research will be added to the final price as a cost. Given the difficulty of research and development of graphene batteries, even Chen William did not pay so much. R&D funds, but it does not prevent him from spreading more "R&D costs" into the product at the beginning. After all, he himself has no intention to be a pioneer in the technological revolution. There is no need to completely subvert the current battery industry. There will be too many enemies to face. battery technology.
Therefore, based on the performance of GB1 battery, at the beginning, as a high-end product, to strive for sufficient profit for Chen William, it will not affect the interests of current lithium battery manufacturers.
When the next generation of batteries is successfully developed, he will be able to authorize the technology of the GB1 battery, and he will always hold the most advanced battery technology in his hands to obtain excess profits. This approach is also for many giants who have developed new technologies. common practice.
CATL also knows that the patent of GB1 battery is owned by Chen William They are not so easy to obtain, and the reality is that since they want to participate in the feast of new energy vehicles in China, foreign investment The proportion of , is bound to be unable to release more.
The final solution is that CATL will use its battery manufacturing experience, technical staff and supply chain channels to take a 10% stake in a new company with Chen William that specializes in mass production of GB1 batteries.
The new company, called Future Energy, will be held by more than 60% of the shares of Southern Cross Holdings, which belongs to William Labs, and the remaining shareholders include CATL, Tesla, Apple, Atlanta Investment Fund, etc. , among which Tesla and Apple both joined the shareholders by issuing additional shares and exchanging shares with Future Energy.
As the only company currently authorized to produce GB1 batteries, 25% of the revenue from each GB1 battery produced by Future Energy will be handed over to William Labs as an authorization fee.
And the company's shareholders, the American company and the Huaguo company, can also achieve a delicate balance.
Future Energy will soon open a battery factory and related raw material production base in the Atlantic Economic Zone of Majus Island. The skilled workers and technicians will be provided by CATL, and some core factories will also be automated by robots. method of production.
And in the end, Ningde Times also got Chen William's promise that they will be the first authorized company after they open the production technology authorization of GB1 battery in the future.
