Many people believe that new energy vehicles are the future trend in the automotive industry, and electric vehicles are the most favored by many.
Batteries are also the core component of electric vehicles.
Small capacity, slow charging speed, and high cost are all significant problems with electric vehicle batteries.
The popularity of Qingyun power banks, along with their impressive data, has given many in the automotive industry hope.
However, there are still many technical issues between Qingyun power banks and car batteries.
For example, what would be the effect of using the charging technology and special energy storage materials of Qingyun power banks in cars?
Qingyun power banks charge very quickly, but are small in size and have limited capacity.
Car batteries are large in size and have a significant energy storage capacity.
Looking at these representatives from the automotive industry, Lin Yun slowly said, "Our company has already developed finished automotive batteries. Currently, there are three levels: batteries with a capacity of 1000 kilowatts cost 50,000 yuan each, batteries with a capacity of 2000 kilowatts cost 100,000 yuan each, and batteries with a capacity of 3000 kilowatts cost 150,000 yuan each. All of them can be fully charged in ten minutes, and their lifespan is about 1,000 cycles."
He had anticipated that the automotive industry would approach him, and he had already finalized the specifications for the three types of batteries.
This price is only slightly higher than the capacity and wholesale price of Qingyun power banks, but not by much. This is because the manufacturing methods of those car batteries are somewhat different from those of Qingyun power banks. The technology is roughly the same, but the material standards are somewhat lower. Naturally, the cost on the Cosmic Trading System is also much lower.
Don't underestimate this cost, and it's not that Lin Yun is particularly concerned about this seemingly small cost.
For example, if you buy ten million Qingyun power banks from Xinglan, the cost would only be eighty spirit crystals.
If he were to produce them himself, he would only need forty spirit crystals.
But what about 100 million Qingyun power banks?
If he were to produce them himself, it would cost the equivalent of four hundred spirit crystals!
This single cost fluctuation could represent a fluctuation in the value of hundreds of spiritual crystals!
Life cannot be calculated in the long run, nor can things be calculated in the long run. This is just the Qingyun power bank. In addition, there are mobile phones, cars, and so on. The more he does and the more he is involved, the more things he adds up. A single cost fluctuation could amount to thousands or even tens of thousands of spiritual crystal fluctuations.
With so many intellectual achievements, it's natural that he should take a liking to them.
"One hundred degrees, two hundred degrees, three hundred degrees, all three levels, all fully charged in ten minutes?" Hearing Lin Yun's specifications, some car representatives tapped the table slightly.
Sure enough, the company behind Qingyun Power Bank has not only developed finished mobile phone batteries, but also finished car batteries.
Although, even the most advanced electric vehicles on the market today only have batteries with a capacity of around 100 kWh.
However, they were not surprised when Lin Yun gave three levels of electricity: 100 degrees Celsius, 200 degrees Celsius, and 300 degrees Celsius.
The main reason why car batteries cannot have a large capacity is due to their size and weight.
The Qingyun power bank is so small in size and weight, yet it has such a large capacity.
Therefore, it is perfectly normal to produce car batteries with capacities of 100, 200, and 300 kilowatts.
Some of the technologies in Qingyun power banks are groundbreaking. If they didn't have some groundbreaking breakthroughs, what would they be doing at this company?
However, this price... gave them a bit of a headache.
They had already analyzed the data of Qingyun power banks, so they could naturally see that the price Lin Yun offered exceeded the cost-effectiveness of Qingyun power banks.
Although Lin Yun had set high prices for those mobile phone batteries, and although the car battery prices Lin Yun set were not much higher than the cost-effectiveness of Qingyun power banks.
However, cars are different from mobile phones and power banks.
Most mobile phones and power banks use lithium batteries or polymer batteries, and for the same capacity, they are expensive.
The batteries used in cars are mostly optimized versions of traditional batteries, and for the same capacity, they cost several times less.
Here's the problem.
For a 100-degree battery, if the manufacturer uses a storage battery, the cost would be less than 50,000 yuan.
It's just too big and too heavy, but it's still usable.
Of course, Lin Yun's batteries have another advantage: a high number of cycles and a long lifespan. However, this advantage is not easy to explain to customers, and they are not likely to believe it.
Batteries with a capacity of 200 kilowatts and those with a capacity of 300 kilowatts are more cost-effective to buy.
A 100-degree battery, under normal use, can power a car for 500 kilometers.
With 300 degrees Celsius of electricity, even some very power-hungry cars can achieve a range of about 1,000 kilometers.
In addition, it only takes ten minutes to fully charge, which is actually quite impressive.
Actually, even if they bought batteries with a capacity of 100 kilowatts from Lin Yun, it would still be quite cost-effective.
After all, its lifespan is what it is. Although they may not be able to explain it to customers, it's not that they really can't.
However, this price still left them somewhat dissatisfied.
"By the way, Mr. Lin, how are these car batteries charged?" Just then, a representative from a car brand remembered something and asked.
It's probably impossible for ordinary charging methods to fully charge a battery to 100, 200, or even 300 degrees Celsius in ten minutes.
“You can use our Qingyun Company’s charging stations, which cost five thousand yuan each, or you can use existing charging stations on the market,” Lin Yun said, glancing at the other party.
Qingyun Power Bank has demonstrated a technology that allows users to overcome the power limitations of existing charging stations.
Although he could create a technology that could be charged using ordinary household electricity, that would be too amazing. He should wait until he becomes more powerful before considering such a technology.
"Won't there be any safety issues if we use existing charging stations on the market?" a car brand representative asked cautiously.
"Of course not. You should have tested the safety of Qingyun power bank's charging technology. Our company's car batteries use the same technology," Lin Yun said, shaking his head.
“Mr. Lin, we believe that the price of this battery is a bit high. You should know that our car batteries are different from mobile phone batteries and power bank batteries. For the same amount of energy stored, the cost difference is huge…” The representatives of several car brands looked at each other, and finally one of them stood up and said.
"Can your company's car batteries store up to 200 or 300 kilowatts of electricity?" Lin Yun asked.
"This..." The representative of the car brand was speechless.
"Let me ask you a question: Is the battery technology and materials your company uses the same as those used in Qingyun power banks?" another representative from a car brand stepped forward and asked.
"Technically, they're roughly the same, but the materials are somewhat different. The resulting car batteries are also not in the same proportions in terms of size and weight as Qingyun power banks, but they're sufficient for your use in your cars. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to get them at this price. I'm also considering the costs for your car company," Lin Yun said calmly.
Upon hearing Lin Yun's words, the representatives of these car brands felt their hearts sink once again.
Although many electric vehicles have ample battery space, no one would be too happy to hear that they are spending money to buy a low-end product.
“Mr. Lin, as far as I know, some research institutions have developed batteries similar to Qingyun power banks, which are about the same in terms of charging speed, only larger in size. However, our cars require batteries with a lot of room for maneuver…” A representative from a car brand stepped forward and said.
"Are you sure that for batteries with the same capacity, their charging speed is about the same as our company's, and not a little faster? And that it won't damage the batteries? Are you sure that their batteries have the same lifespan as our company's batteries? Are you sure that their batteries are really cheaper than our company's batteries?"
Lin Yun smiled faintly and said.
"If you're sure about all of this, then you can definitely buy from them. Our company doesn't mind having more competitors." After a pause, Lin Yun continued.
His pricing wasn't set arbitrarily.
He knew that very few research institutions on Earth could achieve what he was talking about within at least six months, and even if they could, it would be a long time before they could mass-produce the finished products.
The business world is like a battlefield. These companies are waiting to buy those batteries, while their competitors have already seized a huge share of the market.
On his side, it wouldn't take a month; once the factory in Xianyuan County was built, he could supply these batteries in large quantities.
In fact, if he's in a real hurry, he can always buy some batteries on the cosmic trading system.
“I know you think our company’s batteries are too expensive, but we have another solution,” Lin Yun continued.
"What plan?" someone asked immediately upon hearing Lin Yun's words.
"Our company is planning to launch a new car model. If you help us sell the car, we can offer you a higher commission for each car you sell," Lin Yun said with a smile.
Selling cars is very different from selling mobile phones.
Selling mobile phones can also be done online and through express delivery.
Selling cars relies almost entirely on various real-world channels.
"Uh..." The group of people were speechless.
Wasn't this what Lin Yun had previously told those mobile phone brand representatives, asking them to help sell mobile phones?
They all shook their heads.
Similarly, how could they possibly agree to such a request?
However, they really didn't expect that Qingyun Company had not only produced finished mobile phones, but also finished cars, which made them feel a sense of urgency.
What forces are behind Qingyun Company?
If they were to rise to power, they would likely become a formidable enemy, putting pressure on all of them.
