Chapter 577 Solid State Battery
"36 billion! Autohome successfully acquired Gaoteng Map!"

"Defeat Baixun and Virtue, and Feichi Group will take control of Gaoteng!"

"The business landscape continues to expand, where is Zhou Fei's end point?"

…………

On the afternoon of the signing day, the news of Autohome's successful acquisition of Gaoteng Map spread quickly, and it also brought a successful conclusion to this acquisition battle.

For the acquisition of Gao Teng, Zhou Fei went through three offers, and finally snatched Gao Teng from Xu Yingteng and Chen Zhenyu at a premium of 36 million yuan. Insiders in the group also criticized Zhou Feihua's [-] billion, which completely deviated from the group's development plan.

But Zhou Fei didn't bother to explain one by one. When all the subsequent plans are carried out normally, these people will know what a wise choice it was to acquire Gaoteng Map.

On the morning of the second day after the signing of the acquisition agreement, Zhou Fei took Ma Huafu and Jiang Yang and his party for an official visit to Gaoteng. At the same time, Jiang Yang also announced the resettlement plan for Gaoteng's employees on behalf of Autohome.

"In the afternoon, you can go back separately. After you go back, according to what I told you yesterday, hurry up and arrange related work, especially on the Autohome side. Gaoteng's related business must be restored as quickly as possible. The core department should be integrated into Autohome as soon as possible."

After getting out of Gao Teng, Zhou Fei said to the two people who were traveling with him.

"What about you, Mr. Zhou, are you going back to the headquarters directly, or are you going back to Shencheng with me?" Ma Huafu asked.

"I have to stay in Ninghang for a few days, and I will attend the launch meeting of BMW's new car project tomorrow, so you don't have to worry about me. I will ask President Li to arrange for me to go back." Zhou Fei replied with a smile.

Since the independent operation of each company, each car brand under the group has successively launched its own new car plans, and all of them have embarked on the road of electrification according to Zhou Fei's request. Naturally, the three major BBA luxury car brands are no exception. BMW It is the last brand to start new car development.

"In addition, you must keep an eye on Tesla. I will often go to your place to listen to the progress in the future. You have to be mentally prepared, old horse." Zhou Fei smiled and continued.

Zhou Fei's emphasis on "decentralization" is true, but this does not mean that Zhou Fei will be the shopkeeper directly. He will always pay attention to the development progress of the new car and the problems existing in the development, and will also make suggestions to the design of the vehicle when necessary. Rectification comments.

"Tesla welcomes leaders to come and guide at any time, hahaha." Ma Huafu laughed.

After lunch, Jiang Yang and Ma Huafu left Ninghang and returned to their respective companies, while Zhou Fei stayed in Ninghang for another two days before returning to the group headquarters.

Towards the end of the year, while the group companies are speeding up their production, they have also begun to collect various important data. The independent financial statements of each subsidiary company have also been sent to the headquarters, and then the financial department of the headquarters will compile the consolidated financial statements.

As of December 12, the total production and sales volume of Feichi Group has exceeded 20 million vehicles, exceeding the production and sales target of 800 million vehicles set at the beginning of the year. The automaker that made it happen.

However, affected by the company's restructuring, resource integration and multiple acquisitions, the group's overall non-operating costs have increased sharply, resulting in a certain decline in overall profits, but its profitability still ranks first among automakers!
Specific to each subsidiary, except for Tesla, all subsidiaries have achieved positive profits, while Tesla’s loss has reached 30 billion yuan, and the loss has continued to expand, an increase of more than 40% compared to last year. !
Of course, the current value of Tesla cannot be judged by conventional financial statement rules, otherwise Tesla’s market value in the previous life would not have reached the level of 8000 billion U.S. dollars. The valuation of Tesla mainly depends on future profits Ability, all emerging industries, need to burn money in the early stage.

Among all the subsidiaries, the most profitable one is Mercedes-Benz. Although Mercedes-Benz only contributed less than 20% of the group's sales, it created more than 35% of the group's net profit, which can be called the money printing of the Mercedes-Benz Group. machine!
All these data, after being processed by the Finance Department, were first sent to Zhou Fei, and after being reviewed by Zhou Fei, they were officially released to the public.

If there is no accident, Feichi Group will continue to be the world's largest automaker this year, and will further expand its leading advantage.

The time soon turned to the new year. After New Year's Day, Zhou Fei came to the Tesla headquarters in Shanghai again to learn more about the development progress of the new car.

"Mr. Zhou, I have something to tell you." After sitting down, Ma Huafu suddenly said seriously.

"What are you doing so seriously?"

"We, Tesla, are currently the only company under the group with negative profits. We are indeed holding the group back, so I want to issue a military order..."

"Okay, what kind of military order is issued, is it possible that you can still make Tesla profitable this year? You just move forward according to the current plan, and all brother companies will transfuse blood for you, but in the future, it will be Tesla's turn. Sla made blood for them."

Before Ma Huafu finished speaking, Zhou Fei interrupted directly.

"It is definitely unrealistic to make a profit now. I mean, I promise to control the loss this year to around 20 billion. I can always do this." Ma Huafu quickly explained.

He spends the most money and loses the most money. He was too embarrassed to speak on stage at the annual meeting.

"Come on, you hurry up and focus on the development of the new car. You don't have to worry about other things. By the way, let Tian Hong come over as well. I want to know about the battery of the new model." Zhou Fei said angrily. replied.

Seeing this, Ma Huafu could only give a wry smile, and then made a phone call to ask Tian Hong to come to the office.

Soon, Tian Hong hurried to the office.

Tian Hong is now the technical director of Tesla, mainly responsible for the development of batteries and the grasp of the overall structure of the vehicle.

"Old Tian, ​​tell me, are there any new features in the next-generation Tesla's battery solution?" Zhou Fei asked immediately after inviting Tian Hong to sit down.

"The technical solution is nothing special. It still uses the lithium battery technology of the previous generation of Tesla in the form of a battery pack. My idea is that this time I will mainly focus on the mileage of the battery and strive to make the next generation of Tesla The cruising range has gone up to a higher level." Tian Hong replied hastily.

"Then what do you expect the new generation of batteries to have a cruising range? Can it reach a thousand kilometers?" Zhou Fei continued to ask.

Tian Hong smiled wryly and shook his head, "How can it be improved so much at once? I think with the current lithium battery technology, [-] kilometers will be a big mark. My goal for this time is to reach [-] kilometers." kilometer."

"Old Tian, ​​have you ever thought about using a lithium battery instead of a battery design? For example, a solid-state battery." Zhou Fei said with a smile.
