"Boss Chen, let me tell you a piece of good news."
"Boss Wang, what's the good news? Has our 1000-milliampere battery been successfully developed? "
"Yes."
"That's great. Boss Wang, I'm coming to your company now."
After receiving Wang Chuanfu's call, Chen Yu immediately rushed to BYD's headquarters.
Both companies were located in Shencheng, which was not far away. Chen Yu arrived in an hour.
Chen Yu could not help but sigh at the charm of Shencheng. There were so many excellent companies based in Shencheng.
"Boss Chen, you're really coming."
"Of course not. Take me to see our battery."
"Don't be in such a hurry. Have a cup of tea first."
"I'll drink the tea later. Take a look at our battery first."
"Since Boss Chen is in such a hurry, okay, let's go."
Wang Chuanfu brought Chen Yu to BYD's battery research and development room. "Mingshen, introduce this to Boss Chen."
"Boss Chen, this is the latest battery we've developed."
The person in charge of the research and development department took out a battery that was obviously two or three times larger than a normal battery and placed it on the table. He began to introduce the parameters of the battery to Chen Yu.
"Boss Chen, our battery model is BYD1000. The standard voltage is 3.8V, the rated capacity is 1000 milliampere, the charging voltage is limited to 5V, the net weight is 120G, and the size is …"
"Manager Li, thank you for your hard work. I'm very satisfied with the parameters of your battery."
BYD was indeed a battery research company. Chen Yu nodded in approval.
However, although there was no problem with the specific parameters, Chen Yu still asked a few questions that he was more worried about. "However, Manager Li, may I ask if this battery has undergone a series of tests? Our requirement is that when charging, discharging, and short-circuiting, there should be no smoke, fire, explosion, leakage, or other phenomena. "
"Boss Chen, it seems that you're quite professional."
"I'm just trying to understand."
Chen Yu smiled.
Professional my ass.
As for why he was more concerned about this.
In his previous life, Samsung's bombs really made him panic.
If there's a problem with the battery, no matter how awesome your phone is, you're doomed.
Just think about how awesome Samsung was in his previous life. But because of Samsung's battery explosion, they lost even 1% of their market share in China.
At this time, Chen Yu was the first to make this kind of smartphone. Moreover, he had made such a large battery. Chen Yu absolutely could not let his product have any problems.
"Don't worry, Boss Chen. The reason why we dared to give you the battery is because we've done a series of tests, including various limit tests. This included using different chargers, such as charging at different temperatures, using the phone while charging … and so on. Furthermore, we've invented a patent. "
"What patent?"
"That's the patent for never exploding."
"Never explode? Is it really so difficult to make it never explode?"
"Of course, this is actually a little exaggerated. If you put him in a fire, he will still explode. However, his explosion is relatively mild and not the kind that is lethal. This ensures the safety of users when using it. "
"That's great."
Chen Yu nodded his head continuously.
No wonder he's a professional battery manufacturer.
In the future, their BYD Han was said to have used a safer battery technology. One car cost more than 300,000 yuan, and they sold more than 10,000 units a month.
This was simply too awesome.
It's really the pride of the nation's electric car industry.
"Boss Wang, when can you mass produce it?"
"Anytime."
Wang Chuanfu said, "However, because our battery is also newly developed, the first mass production may not be able to catch up with your sales speed."
"There's no hurry. We haven't even launched our latest Pear phone."
"Haha, this makes me even more envious. Your new product hasn't even launched, and your phone is already so popular. Even I want to make a phone."
"Come on, Boss Wang. If you want to make a phone, I welcome you with open arms."
"Forget it. I'll focus on batteries and cars. At the same time, I'll also do some OEM business."
Wang Chuanfu was just joking.
Although mobile phones were profitable, batteries and cars were also big businesses.
In addition, BYD's OEM business for electronic products was also very good.
In his previous life, its scale was only below Foxconn's.
Now, BYD's OEM business could also be ranked fifth in the country.
As for cars, it was even better.
In recent years, Wang Chuanfu had focused his work on cars.
However, when it came to cars, Chen Yu was a little tempted. He suddenly said, "Boss Wang, actually, I want to make a car too."
"Boss Chen is interested in cars too?"
"Of course. Which man doesn't like cars?"
Chen Yu nodded, but then said, "But I don't like traditional gasoline-powered cars. If you want me to do it, I'll make an electric car."
"Electric car, Boss Chen, your idea is too exaggerated."
Wang Chuanfu secretly clicked his tongue.
Was it possible to make an electric car?
In theory, of course it was possible.
However, with the current battery technology, it was basically impossible.
"Boss Chen, the current battery technology in the world is not enough to support a car for a long period of time."
"I know, but if it can't be done now, what about the future?"
Chen Yu said, "Boss Wang, think about it. Although the major manufacturers in our country are rapidly rising in terms of car manufacturing. But to be honest, can we really compete with the European and American automobile industries that have been around for hundreds of years? Their internal combustion engines, their gearboxes, their chassis technology … Although we can catch up quickly, we don't know how many years it will take. Moreover, we are also making progress in catching up with the Europeans and Americans. If we really want to do this, then we'll open up another battlefield. We'll make electric cars. This way, we can be on the same starting line as the Europeans and Americans. We might even be one step ahead of them. "
"Boss Chen, your words are very insightful."
At first, Wang Chuanfu thought that Chen Yu was joking about making an electric car.
However, after Chen Yu finished speaking, Wang Chuanfu was incomparably excited.
In fact, he understood very well.
No matter how much they tried to catch up with the Europeans and Americans, there was still a gap.
Moreover, the automobile industry was not comparable to other industries. It would take at least a few dozen months to catch up.
Even a few dozen years might not be enough.
"It's okay. I mainly think that electric driving is much more interesting than internal combustion engine driving. Now, it's very difficult to get an engine that can go 100 kilometers in 6 seconds. When the time comes, if our battery technology is developed, our electric car can go 100 kilometers in 4 seconds, or even 3 seconds … We'll beat Lamborghini, Bugatti, Ferrari … "
Electric driving and internal combustion engine driving were different.
Electric cars could instantly unleash the maximum horsepower.
Internal combustion engines, on the other hand, could only unleash their full power after reaching a certain speed.
It was also because of electric driving that electric cars did not need an engine or a gearbox.
Therefore, electric cars had a great possibility of replacing internal combustion engines.
"Boss Chen, let's talk in the office."
At this moment, Wang Chuanfu was already stimulated by Chen Yu.
Wang Chuanfu himself started by researching batteries.
He only provided batteries for some electronic products before.
Although there were electric cars behind him, he also thought that electric cars could not be compared to electric cars.
Even if electric cars could be made, it was impossible to replace cars represented by internal combustion engines.
But when Chen Yu said this, Wang Chuanfu seemed to see a glimmer of possibility.
If they really made such an awesome electric car … consumers would go crazy.
"Talk about what?"
"About electric cars."
"Uh … Didn't you just say our smartphones? How about this, Boss Wang, I'll have a good chat with you about electric cars later, but I have to go now. "
Chen Yu took the test battery made by BYD and left immediately.
How could he reveal all of this at once? He would first dig a hole and wait for Wang Chuanfu to jump in.
Seeing Chen Yu leave without looking back, Wang Chuanfu cursed in his heart, "This guy, leaving after showing off. I'll definitely catch him next time."
But even though he cursed, after being fooled by Chen Yu, Wang Chuanfu probably would not be able to sleep tonight.
