Chapter 435: Deep Blue Battery! Selling off and reducing holdings, 500 million in profits, Desay Battery’s doubts!
"Chen Yansen, my college entrance examination is over."
"Brother Yansen, are you going back to Chunshen for the Dragon Boat Festival?"
"I have finished knitting the gloves. I want to give them to you personally. Why are you ignoring me? I am so angry!"
Chen Yansen was lying on the sofa, casually flipping through the message sent by Wang Ziyan.
It is not difficult to see that the other party's mood changed from elation to full of anticipation, and then to aggrieved in just one hour.
Looks cute, but has a deep mind.
Mr. Chen suffered at her hands in his previous life, so naturally he didn't want to be fooled again in this life.
As the saying goes, every failure makes you wiser. There is no need to fall into the same pit twice.
Although with his current cunning and intelligence, he could easily defeat Wang Ziyan, but every time Chen Yansen thought of Wang Zihao, Wang Zhanjun and Wen Shumei, he gave up the idea of repeating the same mistake.
In some places, putting it in once is enough.
But then he thought of Ye Qiuping and felt slapped in the face.
"You have really figured out the trick of saying one thing and thinking another."
Chen Yansen smiled self-deprecatingly, and the image of Wang Ziyan when she was about 25 or 26 years old emerged in his mind. Her charming eyes almost made Mr. Chen fall for her.
After reading the message, he sent the delivery address of the Science and Technology Park Security Office to the other party.
What this means is that you can just send it by express delivery.
Chen Yansen didn't receive a reply from Wang Ziyan until the next morning. He just thought it was a child throwing a tantrum and didn't take it seriously.
What's more, he didn't have time to deal with Wang Ziyan.
From ten o'clock to four o'clock in the afternoon, weekly meetings of Pinbei, Orange Technology, Today Technology, Tiangong Technology and Orange Payment were held one after another.
Yang Rui took two subordinates and went directly to Jinling to start the store inspection process.
After ten days of fierce competition, Qiandu.com and Senlian Capital invested a total of more than 700 million yuan. Even Li Yanhong could not bear it anymore.
He originally wanted to work hard until the end of June, but he couldn't resist his wife whispering in his ear all day long.
"Qiandu's market value has dropped by 6 billion U.S. dollars. The core reason is that the market share of the search business has been declining. Robin, you should focus your resources on the core business." His wife persuaded.
Li Yanhong disagreed at first and insisted on taking 30% of the market share first. However, after his wife's repeated persuasion, he took the initiative to scale back his offensive and cut the marketing budget by half.
As a result, the discounts for Qiandu Takeout, Qiandu Group Buying and Didi Taxi were reduced, and the order volume dropped by 60%.
After all, most users come for the red envelopes with no threshold.
The subsidy activities of Kuaipao and Kuaidi Taxi have also tightened their policies. Although they are still distributing red envelopes, they are only distributed to users with high net worth and high repurchase rates.
The pressure was instantly reduced a lot!
Users were wailing everywhere, believing that the "subsidy war" between the two companies was not long enough and was called off after only ten days.
But they had no idea that in these ten days, Senlian Capital and Qiandu.com burned a total of 1.5 billion yuan.
Although the current activity intensity has declined, the daily capital consumption still remains at around 50 million.
Whoever can’t hold on first will be eliminated!
Sanpower Group, which had just taken over Meituan, invested an additional 200 million yuan in one go, but it was all used up in less than a week.
Dianping doesn't even have the qualifications to be at the table. From May to early June, its business volume shrank rapidly, first falling below the 1 billion mark, and then it could not even maintain 800 million. The transaction volume in May was less than 600 million.
However, Manzuo, Dida and Pinzhituan, which survived the "Thousands of Group Wars", also died silently and went bankrupt completely in this storm.
Taodiandian’s average daily order volume has shrunk by 70%. In the huge market of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, there are only more than 9,000 orders left every day.
The orders of Daojia Food Club, Dianwoba and Lvtao.com were cut in half. The newly established Life Radius, Yitaoshi and Waimaichaoren were crushed by the "joint efforts" of Kuaipao and Qiandu Waimai before they even received their first round of financing.
For a time, the group buying, food delivery and online ride-hailing industries suffered countless casualties.
In the war, countless cannon fodder platforms were sacrificed, many of which have the opportunity to become unicorn companies in the future.
But if they can't even get through the present, how can they talk about the future?
While Senlian Capital and Qiandu.com were fighting each other, they were also carrying out a major cleanup of the industry.
Small players are automatically eliminated!
…
…
Xucheng, Zhuxianzhuang Science and Technology Park.
The weather in northern Anhui Province has gradually changed from mild to hot. The nearby wheat fields are alternating between green and yellow. It seems that the harvest season is not far away.
Chen Yansen sat in the office, sliding the mouse wheel with his right hand, and quickly finished reading a technical document containing pictures and text.
"High-density lithium-sulfur battery design!"
He proposed the technical direction last year. The Shenzhen R&D Laboratory spent a year and finally overcame all technical difficulties.
If he were to lead the research and development himself, it would probably be done in less than two months.
But Chen Yansen is not willing to stay in the laboratory all day doing research and development.
Because the mobile phone battery R&D laboratory is a complex system with multiple areas of coordination, humidity, cleanliness, safety, electromagnetic compatibility, etc. need to be strictly controlled.
He decides the general direction, and leaves the specific implementation to his subordinates.
Chen Yansen thought for a moment and named it "Deep Blue Battery".
Compared with the mainstream lithium batteries in 2013, the energy density of Deep Blue batteries is 600 watt-hours per kilogram, almost three times.
If a deep blue battery weighs 50 grams, it is enough to support a 1-watt mobile device to work continuously for 30 hours.
In fact, when a mobile phone is in standby mode, the power consumption is only 0.01 watt to 0.1 watt; when browsing the web, reading text content, or chatting on WeChat, the power consumption is about 0.5 watt to 2 watts; when playing large games, watching high-definition videos, or making video calls, the power consumption is about 2 watts to 4 watts.
In other words, the Deep Blue battery has twice the battery life of conventional lithium batteries.
Although the life of lithium-sulfur batteries is short due to the polysulfide shuttle effect, Chen Yansen's solution of graphene-coated sulfur particles plus metal separators, coupled with flexible sulfide solid electrolytes, can effectively suppress the shuttle effect.
It not only solves the drawbacks of lithium-sulfur batteries, but also increases the cycle life from 500 times to 1,200 times.
In addition, the electrode thickness was reduced by 40% by using nanoporous aluminum current collectors and vertical carbon nanotube arrays.
Simply put, the Deep Blue battery has high energy density, long service life, fast charging speed and low unit capacity cost.
Moreover, mass production can be achieved by simply using the existing lithium battery production line and upgrading the coating and packaging processes.
For Chen Yansen, the most important issue at the moment is: to cooperate with Desay Battery, or to start his own business and eat on his own.
The former is fast, the latter is slow.
In the past two years, Gao Weilin has successively acquired some Desay Battery shares, and now holds 9.4%.
But it is still at least 40% away from controlling stake!
Moreover, the major shareholder has a state-owned background, so it would be extremely difficult for Chen Yansen to snatch the business away from the tiger's mouth.
Therefore, Chen Yansen quickly made a decision to acquire a medium-sized battery factory, preferably one with a production line that could match Deep Blue Batteries.
"Lao Gao, come here."
After sorting out his thoughts, Chen Yansen took out his cell phone and called Gao Weilin.
"Okay, boss." Gao Weilin responded immediately.
Five minutes later, Lao Gao pushed the door open and walked in, sitting down, waiting for Chen Yansen's instructions.
“Spread the news to the public and say that Senlian Capital is interested in selling Desay Battery’s shares. They can be split or packaged, and we’ll find an institution with the highest bid to take over.” Chen Yansen said slowly.
In the past two years, Desay's stock price has increased by more than 120% annually thanks to supply orders from Orange, Apple, Sanxing and Huawei.
Senlian Capital has invested 530 million yuan in total, and it is expected to realize 1 billion yuan in cash by selling it now.
Compared with investments in other industries, the return on investment for purchasing Desay batteries is not high.
"Boss, Desay's stock price has risen a lot in the past two years. If you hold it for another year, you may be able to make another 500 million in net profit."
Gao Weilin didn't know about Deep Blue Battery's plan, so he patiently advised.
"I plan to acquire a medium-sized battery factory. In the future, we will produce and sell the batteries for Orange mobile phones ourselves. Please help me make a trip to Shenzhen. I will ask Lao Cao to assist you then."
Chen Yansen shook his head and made arrangements on his own.
Lao Gao's eyes turned and he immediately understood what Chen Yansen meant. He secretly guessed that the company probably had a complete set of solutions in battery technology, and the performance of its products far exceeded the quality of Desay batteries.
Since the boss didn't say anything, he didn't ask any further questions.
Anyway, once we go to Shenzhen, we will know everything.
He nodded and agreed readily: "Boss, no problem. I will go back and select a list of suitable buyers, and then make a schedule to go to Shenzhen tomorrow."
"Thank you for your hard work." Chen Yansen patted Gao Weilin on the shoulder and said.
Lao Gao didn't dare to delay his work. As soon as Chen Yansen finished his instructions, he immediately left the office and walked towards the work area of the Strategic Investment Department.
Not long after Lao Gao left, Ding Houmeng from the Intellectual Property Department knocked on the open door and said, "Boss, are you looking for me?"
"sit!"
Chen Yansen raised his hand to signal, and then handed him the technical solution of Deep Blue Battery:
"This document contains all of Deep Blue Battery's core patents. Please handle it as best as possible."
Ding Houmeng took the document and nodded, "Boss, let me take a look first."
Chen Yansen didn't take it seriously and turned around to do other things.
About 20 minutes later, Ding Houmeng finished reading it roughly. He looked up and said, "Boss, I think the positive and negative electrode materials, MOF membrane preparation process, microcapsule formula of self-healing electrolyte and laser etching method of three-dimensional electrode can all be patented, but the battery structure explosion diagram and performance comparison curve are missing."
"Find Cao Dahua, he will help you collect the remaining materials."
Chen Yansen said casually.
"Boss, that's no problem for me. Once the information arrives, I can write the claims and description immediately." Ding Houmeng replied.
Chen Yansen hummed and then waved his hand.
The next day, Gao Weilin selected a group of people from the Strategic Investment Department to go to Shenzhen to inspect the battery factory.
at the same time.
The rumor that Sunlink Capital was looking for a buyer for Desay Battery's equity also spread like wildfire in the circle.
As a major customer of Desay Battery, Orange Technology accounts for 30% of the other party's revenue.
Therefore, the board of directors of Desay Battery pays great attention to Sunlian Capital.
As soon as the news came out, they became nervous.
After some thought, Jiang Jie, chairman of Desay Battery, took the initiative to call Chen Yansen to test the other party's true thoughts.
Let’s see whether it is a normal reduction in holdings or there is some other meaning!
