If you cheat, money will follow

The bidding method is very simple, almost crude.

10% share price, base price of US$10 billion.

Each company makes a quotation based on the lowest price, which is divided into two rounds, and the one with the highest price wins.

Four companies were eliminated in the first round;

Three companies were eliminated in the second round.

In the end, two companies were left and entered with the highest bid.

This should not be what this young man, Justin, thought of.

It should or is most likely a method thought up by a group of senior "money traders" on Wall Street.

This method is more effective than ordinary bidding in getting hot deals.

The first round of bidding begins.

After representatives from nine automobile companies wrote their quotations on paper, folded it and handed it to Justin...

"Guys, before we reveal the first round of offers, I'm going to tell you," Justin said.

"The financing funds will be used for the construction of battery production lines and research on photovoltaic power generation technology."

"The photovoltaic power generation technology of Pingtouge Research Institute has inspired us a lot, and our photovoltaic power generation research has also made great progress."

"Our goal is to provide every company around the world with a solution that combines solid-state batteries and photovoltaic technology, just like the Pingtou Ge Institute..."

"Achieving unlimited battery life under certain conditions."

After Justin finished speaking, the Wall Street "money investors" behind him smiled happily and raised their eyebrows unconsciously.

The representatives of the nine companies were full of emotions: "..."

Some are upset and regretful;

Some are eager to try;

Some are determined to win;

Some gnashed their teeth;

Some... calm and calm.

"Gentlemen, I will now announce the quotations of various companies." Justin spread out the paper, his eyes immediately enlarged, and his hands shook inadvertently.

He forced himself to calm down and swallowed.

"Ford, $15 billion!"

After finishing speaking, Justin showed Ford's quotation to other business representatives, indicating that it was fair, just and open.

then:

"GM, $16.5 billion!"

"..." The Ford representative unconsciously looked at the GM representative.

"..." The GM representative smiled back and shrugged slightly.

"Volkswagen, $18.2 billion!"

Ford representative: "..."

Universal representative: "..."

The Volkswagen representative smiled at the GM representative and raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Tesla, $10 billion!"

Representatives from the other eight companies unconsciously looked at the Tesla representative.

The Tesla representative was expressionless and calm.

Well, the important thing is to participate!

"BMW, $14 billion!"

"Mercedes, $15.2 billion!"

"Honda, $14.5 billion!"

"Produced by R, US$17.2 billion!"

The Tesla representative was expressionless and calm.

Representatives from Ford, General Motors, Volkswagen, BMW, Mercedes, Honda, etc. all looked at R-produced representatives.

The Nissan representative looked at him, nodded slightly, kept smiling, and looked slightly proud.

"F field...20 billion US dollars!"

Ford representative: "..."

Universal representative: "..."

Volkswagen representative: "..."

BMW representative: "..."

Mercedes representative: “…”

Honda representative: "..."

R stands for: "..."

The Tesla representative was expressionless and calm.

The Toyota representative bowed slightly, put his hands together, smiled slightly, and expressed his apology!

“Isn’t your company optimistic about hydrogen energy?”

"We are very optimistic about hydrogen energy, but we are also optimistic about UB."

"Don't your company want to develop a super fuel engine?"

"We are developing super fuel engines, but we are also optimistic about UB."

"Hasn't your company already developed solid-state batteries?"

"..."

Justin finished reading.

Ford, Tesla, BMW, Honda eliminated.

General Motors, Volkswagen, Mercedes, Nissan, and Toyota entered the second round.

Before the second round of bidding begins, there will be a short break of five minutes.

Within these five minutes, representatives from five companies called the company one after another to report on the first round of bidding and inquire about the upper limit of the second round of bidding.

The five-minute rest period is probably also suggested by Wall Street’s “money traders.”

These "money guys" have been dealing with money for a long time, and their various settings and routines are all about getting into the house and becoming a saint.

The purpose is to further stimulate business representatives in a silent and tense atmosphere...

Let them have relatively ample time to think, but not so much in order to fight for a larger amount of authority.

this point is very important.

Five minutes later, the second round of bidding began.

Representatives of the five companies stood in various corners of the room, carefully considering which number would be more appropriate.

The GM representative scratched his head, his mind was wandering, he wrote down a number and crossed it out, wrote down a number and continued to cross it out...;

The public representative did not write immediately.

Instead, he looked at a corner of the room, especially the demeanor of the Toyota representative.

He wanted to figure out Toyota's offer through his demeanor.

This representative may have studied psychology.

The Mercedes representative, looking this way and that, swaying from side to side.

He looked at Volkswagen for a while, then for GM, and then for R-products.

The Nissan representative was about to start writing, but when he noticed the Mercedes representative's gaze, he quickly stopped writing, then made eye contact with the other person and said, "Hey!"

Mercedes representative: “…”

The R representative continued: "Hey!"

The Mercedes representative continued: “…”

The representative from R is not tall and has a small face. Because of his smile, his cheeks are slightly raised, forming a "cute" dimple.

Representative F Tian ignored the many expressions, movements and eye contact at the scene.

With firm eyes and full confidence, he wrote down the quotation in almost one second, leaving almost no opportunity for others to take advantage of him.

Finally, Justin received quotes from five companies. His fingers no longer trembled slightly, but his whole body trembled, as if he had been electrocuted. ,

The "money traders" on Wall Street were so trembling that they couldn't help but stand up and watch.

Curious about the price, it made the young man in front of me twitch.

The answer was soon revealed:

"GM, $21 billion!"

"Volkswagen, $24 billion!"

"Mercedes, $20 billion!"

"Produced by R, US$29 billion!"

"F Tian, ​​38 billion US dollars!"

Justin quickly announced the quotations of the five companies, and the representative from F Tian became the person who received the most attention in the audience.

Naturally, he has become the most popular person among the "money traders" on Wall Street.

"Congratulations! Congratulations on your company's qualification to invest in UB." The "money buyers" suppressed their excitement and shook hands with the Toyota representative with trembling hands:

"We believe that your company will undoubtedly continue to lead the development of the entire automotive industry."

"Thank you, we just want to make some achievements in the field of new energy, that's all." Representative F Tian replied modestly.

"Happy cooperation!"

"Happy cooperation!"

Looking at the hypocrisy and compromise of both sides, GM, Mercedes, and Volkswagen left the scene sadly.

Justin looked at the "money merchants" calmly, with a very mysterious emotion flashing through his eyes.

The bidding ends and the Sleeping King becomes the protagonist.

Justin introduces the capabilities of the "Odin Battery" to Sleeping King.

"Mr. President, our Odin battery has similar performance to Kirin battery."

"For example, high energy density, strong safety performance, long cycle life, etc."

"In the field of fast charging technology, we have our own unique technology that can charge from 15% to 4% at a 0C peak rate in 80 minutes."

“This has far exceeded the extremely fast charging target set by the National Energy Department.”

Justin then introduced the technical features of the "Odin Battery" to Sleeping King.

"Unlike Kirin batteries, our research direction is in the direction of sulfides."

"Using a unique sulfide solid electrolyte, it can be cold started in less than 20 minute at an ambient temperature of minus 1°C."

"This technical feature enables it to have multi-scenario and wide-coverage application characteristics."

"In addition, through our actual verification, the capacity degradation is less than 1000% after 5 fast charging cycles, and the capacity degradation is less than 2000% after more than 10 fast charging cycles."

"Next, we plan to develop more efficient photovoltaic technology to match Odin batteries and achieve theoretically unlimited cruising range."
