Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant

Jumei has been engaged in supply chain finance, and the scale is not large. It cooperates with banks and plays the role of an information intermediary. Later, the policy was liberalized and a small loan company was established in Qianhai. As for Ari, he went to Chongqing and cooperated with Fosun and Wanxiang to become a small loan company.

It is very possible that Ma Yun likes the circle culture. The small loan company of Jumei did not find other shareholders to "take risks and share profits". To be honest, the giant tree is towering, and it is very easy for the founders to get a piece of it. Does Mr. Ma have one, who knows? Evaluating a person is complicated, there is no absolute good or bad.

Qu Li is very restrained in Jumei Glory. He has supported so many supply chain companies, and he has not filled his own pockets. Maybe it is because of his integrity that he can be trusted. If he is a dog, no one with ideals and pursuits will follow him.

The current small loan company of Jumei Financial Services mainly serves platform sellers. The lending business meets the needs of the times, and it has only just started. Moreover, Qu Li insists on walking on two legs of financial technology and inclusive finance: "We need to use technology The power to reconstruct the credit evaluation system of some industries..."

Qu Li is high and high, setting the tone for the development of Jumei Financial Services. It is a financial technology and inclusive finance. In the future, credit rating will be done.

Compared with technology, the financial industry is relatively simple. Anyway, it is within the scope of Qu Li's understanding. As long as you don't think about "financial innovation", return to the origin of finance, and serve the real economy, basically there will be no problems. It's a pity. To make big money you have to innovate.

Before Qu Li could think more clearly, Suntech's affairs had progressed. After statistics, the confirmed debt was about 10 billion. Participating in the bidding are Yingli, Trina Solar, Putian New Energy with a state-owned background, and Xidian Group.

"There is also a local state-owned enterprise in Wuxi that is about to make a move, and our advantage is not obvious." Qu Li flew to Xingsha, and the people from Honeycomb Energy gave him a detailed report

"Wuxi wants us to participate in the bidding?" Qu Li

"Yes."

"Forget it then." Qu Li thought that Wu Xi regarded him as a "savior", but he didn't expect that he was overthinking. With so many companies bidding for the largest photovoltaic company in the country, he didn't need to think about how deep the interest entanglement was behind him. He didn't want to Compete with wolves for food.

"Have we stopped doing photovoltaics?"

"I am a major shareholder of LONGi." Qu Li; "How about this, taking advantage of the difficulties of domestic photovoltaic companies, we will acquire high-quality photovoltaic power plant resources from them."

"We're going to build a power station?" Qu Li didn't know what to think.

"I want to do photovoltaics, energy storage and virtual power plants. If possible, it may be a better choice to invest in nuclear fusion in the future." Qu Li explained that the virtual power plant itself does not generate electricity, but a large number of scattered and adjustable power plants in the grid. Integrate the power load of the power grid and join the power grid dispatching to achieve effective peak shaving and valley filling. It is essentially a software platform system that aggregates existing distributed resources and participates in the electricity market through collaborative control.

In China, there was a draft for comments in March, saying that it is to subsidize distributed photovoltaic power plants, but neither photovoltaic nor wind energy can generate stable power, which will bring a heavy burden to the power grid.

Combining what Qu Li said before, it seems that there has been no fundamental change. Energy storage is very important, but virtual power plants are almost a necessity for the energy Internet.

It does not produce photovoltaic cells, but produces power batteries and energy storage batteries, and more specifically, develops lithium iron phosphate batteries.

Honeycomb Energy is a battery company, not a ternary lithium battery company. It is normal to develop lithium iron phosphate. CATL is the world's largest supplier of lithium iron phosphate. Unexpectedly, although BYD is famous for lithium iron phosphate, it is not the market leader.

From his energy concept, Qu Li mentioned the recent Hangzhou Bus Factory. The cost of power batteries is a problem he has to consider, and the advantages of lithium iron phosphate are very obvious.

"We focus on power batteries and energy storage batteries..."

"That's right, consumer battery products can be given up." Qu Li said 21700, there is no need to provide batteries for Jumei's power bank.

General Motors is not interested in the 21700 power battery, or has no confidence. How complicated should the battery management system be when thousands of batteries are combined? Musk is interested, but he has no money. Does he rely on Panasonic batteries?

Not to mention, Panasonic Battery took the initiative to contact Honeycomb Energy, and Zhao Mingjie invited them to visit. Power battery companies can cooperate with each other. Now that the entire market is so large, cooperation is possible in order to save costs.

Panasonic has a deep technical advantage in 18650 batteries. 21700 batteries Honeycomb Energy is half a step ahead. Panasonic upgraded to 21700 in 2014 and started mass production, because the production line can largely continue to use 18650. Maybe Honeycomb Energy wants to measure Production depends on their support.

As for the establishment of a joint venture factory in China, there is a high probability that there is no chance. Before 2016, only domestic power batteries were subsidized in China. So, help Panasonic to build a factory in the United States? Or promise that Geometry will source their 21700 batteries in North America?

The problem is that this kind of cooperation intention, cooperation without specific purchase volume, is at most verbal, and it seems difficult for Panasonic to pay the price in advance.

Fortunately, Qu Li has a good reputation in Japan, and Panasonic is willing to contact him.

Zhao Mingjie was in charge of contacting them, and Qu Li flew to Beijin again, longing for a private jet again, but it was a pity that he had to wait another year.

Going to Beijin is of course called by the leaders. The "Super Factory" plan of Qiancheng Geometry is valued by the relevant departments, and they want to hear a detailed report.

"Isn't it just buying land and building a factory, is it necessary to make it so complicated?" Qu Lifei complained after meeting someone from the Beijin government after arriving in Beijin

"Who told you to do Industry 4.0? Germany has just put forward such a concept, and you are about to make it a reality."

"China is the world's largest auto market. It doesn't have its own production management system and standards. It cannot leave its own mark on the history of the global auto industry. I think it is the responsibility of all the auto industry people..." Qu Ligang wanted to criticize , held back

"So you are going to do it yourself?"

"Don't talk about this offending topic, what do the leaders want to hear?"

"Tell me the truth?"

"I just want to fool you Beijin into granting me a piece of land to build a factory so that our fuel trucks can reduce transportation costs."

"The super factory plan?"

"Of course it is prepared for electric vehicles. If we don't improve efficiency and reduce costs, how can we popularize pure electric vehicles? We can't keep selling luxury cars, right?" said Qu Li.

"This is very good, the most successful luxury car brand in the country."

"This is not what I want, nor is it what the higher-ups want." Qu Li said seriously

"Don't worry, this time it's the Ministry of Industry and Speech. They just want to know the feasibility of your plan, and explore the feasibility of Industry 4.0 and advanced manufacturing in China." Official official

"Oh, that's good, no problem!" Qu Li heaved a sigh of relief (end of this chapter)
