Chapter 172 Wireless Charging Alliance

In the spacious and luxurious conference room, there were several men sitting on both sides of the long table. Although they were wearing suits and looked quite impressive, their faces were not very good-looking.

And they all have the same identity...

The person in charge of a well-known domestic automobile brand.

In recent years, as the world has paid more and more attention to environmental issues, various countries have begun to introduce various corresponding policies. While vigorously supporting the new energy vehicle industry, they have also imposed many restrictions on traditional gasoline vehicles.

Some overseas countries have even made direct regulations that will completely ban the sale of gasoline vehicles in a few years.

This has forced many automobile manufacturing companies to make changes and choose to transform into the field of new energy vehicles. Among the well-known domestic automobile brands, BYAT Changcheng Automobile Qirui and others are the most intuitive examples.

However, due to technical limitations, new energy vehicles have never been accepted by most people.

There is a huge gap in sales compared to gasoline vehicles.

However, when the development of new energy vehicles gradually fell into trouble, an opportunity suddenly appeared in the industry.

That's right.

It is the microwave wireless charging technology newly developed by Xingyuan Technology.

In terms of energy, although the batteries used in new energy vehicles have not yet made any major technological breakthroughs, it is completely feasible to significantly increase their endurance and complete charging in a very short time, and there will still be countless consumers. Be willing to pay for it.

Such a blockbuster suddenly appeared in the industry. Even outsiders can analyze it, let alone other domestic car brands.

It's definitely like a civet cat smelling fish, and it can't wait for a moment.

And that's exactly what happened.

It can be said that within a few days after Xiaoxing Automobile was launched, they all expressed their willingness to cooperate with Xingyuan Technology.

The original plan was to meet Niu Geng and win the wireless charging business for his own brand, but he didn't expect that Niu Geng would actually do something like this and call them all together.

Although they are all domestic car brands, they are also competing with each other.

The entire atmosphere in the conference room was slightly awkward.

After a long silence, Zhao Jianghe, the person in charge of BYD, finally opened the conversation and said: "Do you think Xingyuan Technology has any intention of cooperating when it called us here? If we can't talk about the reason today, I'm afraid it won't happen in the future." The new energy market is dominated by Xiaoxing Motors."

"Is it just the new energy market?" the person in charge of Changcheng Automobile asked a meaningful question with a sneer at the corner of his mouth.

The popularization of high-efficiency wireless charging technology will have the greatest impact on the traditional gasoline automobile industry, because it will inevitably make many users change their original views.

Shift the demand for purchasing gasoline vehicles to new energy vehicles.

After all, both BYAT and Wuling were initially involved in the field of gasoline vehicles, and did not join the new energy vehicle industry from the beginning.

However, some people present put forward different views.

"According to normal thinking, there is nothing wrong with Xingyuan Technology blocking technology at this time and vigorously developing its own brand of new energy vehicles. But since Mr. Niu called us all over today, it shows that he still has the intention to cooperate."

"You're right. Now that you're here, just be patient and wait a little longer."

Immediately afterwards.

Yang Yong, the head of Wuling Automobile, also took over the conversation and said: "I don't know if you have noticed one thing. Among the people present today, there is no person in charge or representative of Tesla. If I expected it right, Niu It should always be intentional to support the development of the domestic new energy vehicle industry."

As soon as these words came out.

Everyone carefully analyzed the truth behind this sentence, and then nodded in agreement.

It was at this time that Niu Geng and Qin Xiaoman stepped into the conference room, and his hearty voice suddenly sounded in everyone's ears.

"You guys can't wait any longer, I'm really sorry."

The next second, the heads of domestic automobile brands headed by Zhao Jianghe and Yang Yong quickly stood up and greeted Niu Geng.

"Mr. Niu is busy with work, so we should wait a little longer."

"Don't be afraid of being late for a good meal. The cow is always worth the wait."

"That's right."

Niu Geng's eyes swept over everyone's faces one by one, and after taking in everyone's performance, he immediately greeted warmly: "Quick, everyone, please take a seat."

Compared to the others here, Zhao Jianghe was more impatient, so as soon as his butt touched the chair, he couldn't wait to express his intention.

"Mr. Niu, we, BYD, want to come here this time..." Before Nai He finished speaking, he was interrupted by Niu Geng: "I know very well what Mr. Zhao means, and I think everyone else here is too. We came for the same thing, but since everyone can sit here today, there will definitely be a result in the end.”

"What Mr. Niu said is that I was indeed too anxious." After being lectured by Niu Geng, Zhao Jianghe not only did not feel dissatisfied at all, but instead nodded in response like a chicken pecking at rice.

And the word happiness is written all over his face.

Because Niu Geng can say this, it means that Star Source Technology does have intention to cooperate this time when it invites domestic automobile brands.

It made Yang Yong and others feel reassured.

After the conference room returned to calm, Niu Geng continued to speak: "Actually, the reason I invite everyone to our Longhu High-tech Park this time is to establish a wireless charging alliance. All members who join the alliance will receive Star Source Technology Supported by the latest microwave wireless charging technology.”

And as Niu Geng finished speaking, other people's hearts suddenly moved, and they all started asking questions.

"Mr. Niu, is this true? Do you really plan to establish a wireless charging alliance?"

"How are the service fees charged?"

“Can members of the alliance use the wireless charging stations your company has invested in building across the country?”

Faced with many questions from everyone, Niu Geng did not hesitate and immediately answered them one by one: "Since I invited everyone to come, I naturally made a decision long ago. The Wireless Charging Alliance is the most important layout of Xingyuan Technology in the future. .”

"As for the cost issue..."

"We at Xingyuan Technology will charge 5% of the car's selling price as a service fee, and as long as the car is equipped with a wireless charging interface, we can use our wireless charging station."

Niu Geng knows very well that if Xingyuan Technology blocks wireless charging technology and makes Xiaoxing Motors the only new energy vehicle brand in the world with wireless charging technology, it will inevitably gradually occupy the entire domestic market over time and obliterate other brands. living space.

Even established domestic car manufacturers such as BYAT Wuling will have a huge impact on their sales.

As the saying goes, never forget the man who dug the well when drinking water. Compared with industry monopoly, Niu Geng prefers win-win cooperation with other domestic car brands.

According to data published in the industry, the profits of domestically produced cars are generally around 8%. Xingyuan Technology charges 5% of the selling price as a service fee, which is not a small amount.

Including the charging fees that charging stations can earn, the benefits are about the same as selling Xiaoxing cars, or even higher.

So Niu Geng had no reason to refuse.

One more thing is.

Xiaoxing Motors is currently a first-generation smart car that is in hot sales. Because it is targeted at young people, in order to reduce manufacturing costs as much as possible, in addition to the two advanced technologies of wireless charging and driverless driving, the quality of the car itself can only be regarded as average. lower level.

To simply describe it in one sentence, it is a cheap and people-friendly product.

If other domestic brands install wireless charging interfaces to solve the problem of difficult charging for users, they can develop to the mid-to-high-end level.

Release new energy wireless charging cars that cost millions like Tesla.

certainly.

The establishment of the Wireless Charging Alliance does not mean giving up on Xiaoxing Auto. After all, it also has artificial intelligence and driverless functions. Even if there are more wireless charging car brands on the market to choose from in the future, Xiaoxing Auto’s customer base will still be Steady increase.

The key point is that Xiaoxing Motors currently only has one manufacturing plant in Jingzhou City. Even if it is equipped with an intelligent industrial robot production line, the annual output of cars will not exceed 500,000 vehicles at most.

It is really difficult to continue to meet market demand and cannot be a fatal blow to Truss.

But once the Wireless Charging Alliance is established, the situation will change instantly, which will accelerate the decline of Tesla.

Completely withdraw from the domestic market.

After all, the Wireless Charging Alliance is limited to domestic car brands.

——

After listening to Niu Geng's explanation, Zhao Jianghe, Yang Yong and other car brand leaders were slightly silent. They all seemed to be in a state of deep thinking. They were obviously seriously considering the issue of the wireless charging alliance.

A service fee of 5% of the selling price is indeed not an easy decision for domestic car brands.

Who makes domestic cars not as profitable as joint venture cars, let alone imported cars?

However, in this situation, they have no other choice at all, unless they are willing to completely abandon the new energy market and watch their sales gradually decline.

In the end, after thinking for dozens of seconds, it was Zhao Jianghe who took the lead in making the decision and solemnly replied: "We at BYD are willing to join the Wireless Charging Alliance and jointly build a new new energy market ecological environment."

The appearance of the first person to eat crabs can easily create a herd effect, attracting more people to join in, and they may even worry that it is too late and they may not even be able to eat the bones.

Then other brands expressed their attitudes one after another.

"Wuling Automobile is willing to join the Wireless Charging Alliance."

"So is Changcheng Automobile."

"The same goes for Qi Rui."

"We, Xiaomi Motors, are also willing to join the alliance."

At this time, Niu Geng couldn't help but feel happy when he heard everyone's response. He immediately nodded and made arrangements: "Very good, then there will be a dedicated person to communicate with you about the specific implementation plan of the alliance."

At this point, it can be said that Niu Geng’s work has been completed. Next, he only needs to provide wireless charging technical support to the alliance members and wait for their new cars to come online.

That will also sound the death knell for Truss.

The reason why Niu Geng doesn't have a good impression of Truss is not only because of Shen Yongyan's reasons, but also because of Truss' previous attitude towards domestic consumers. The typical attitude of scolding his mother with his job is really not a good impression on people. .

What's more, how can we allow outsiders to get involved in our own country's market cake?

But just as Niu Geng was about to leave, Zhao Jianghe's voice suddenly sounded in his ears: "Mr. Niu, there is a question I don't know whether to talk about or not?"

"Oh, please."

When Niu Geng heard this, he gently raised his hand to signal him to continue.

"Mr. Niu, I know that although your company has built a large number of wireless charging stations of different specifications across the country, as the number of wireless charging cars increases in the future, will there be no parking spaces? What if some low-quality car owners deliberately occupy parking spaces?"

Zhao Jianghe's concerns do have some truth. There are many car brands joining the Wireless Charging Alliance today, not to mention the number of members in the future.

You must know that there are not a few domestic companies interested in entering the new energy vehicle industry.

However, Niu Geng did not worry about this. He kept a confident smile on his lips and said: "First of all, the wireless charging station only allows new energy vehicles to enter, and each charging station has been intelligentized and will automatically cut off the power once it is full. , no vehicle is allowed to stay in the charging position without charging.”

"In addition, the current wireless charging station construction project is still ongoing, and new charging stations will be put into use every month."

After listening to Niu Geng's explanation, Zhao Jianghe was immediately convinced. He nodded sharply and said, "Mr. Niu is indeed thoughtful. I have no problem."

"That's good."

As soon as Niu Geng finished speaking, he seemed to suddenly think of something, and then added: "By the way, our Longhu High-tech Park has just been put into use not long ago, and there are many interesting places in it. Assistant Qin can lead it later. Please take a tour."

"I heard that this park has been selected as a world-famous building. I want to take advantage of the opportunity to appreciate it today."

"If Mr. Niu invites us, there's no reason why we shouldn't go."

"If I weren't afraid of affecting the normal work of your company, I would send people here to study hard."

In the midst of everyone's chatter and flattery, Niu Geng stood up and left, leaving Qin Xiaoman to entertain these prominent figures in the automobile industry.

It is worth mentioning that.

Xingyuan Technology moved very quickly. The morning after the meeting with the heads of these domestic car brands, it officially announced that Xiaoxing Motors would form a wireless charging alliance with domestic car brands.

At the same time, the official accounts of car brands that had decided to join the alliance also forwarded this.

Prove the truth of this matter.

Not long after Xiaoxing Motors launched its first-generation smart car, it suddenly made such a big noise. It was no longer just a blockbuster in the industry. It can be said that it attracted the attention of all domestic consumers. Various analyzes and speculations have appeared online.

But to say who was the most injured in this incident, it must be Truss.

It is obviously a well-known new energy vehicle brand in China and occupies the majority of the market share, but for such an important meeting in the industry, let alone attending it, you don't even know about it.

It's clear that I don't want to play with them.

There are too many things going on in the past two days, so the update is a bit useless. I will hit the battle rankings next month!
