While Ye Zhou's general technical office was intensively arranging the research and development and manufacturing of sulfur silicon batteries, the island nation Panasonic Co., Ltd. also began to analyze the latest news.

The conference room gathered senior technicians from all the company's battery fields. They received the latest technical materials from Shanshan Co., Ltd. and other commercial information used to assist in judgment.

The first person to speak was a man wearing gold-rimmed glasses, who flipped the materials and said:

"Everyone, the situation must be very clear. Huaxia has started the research and development and manufacturing of sulfur lithium batteries. According to the information we have, they have broken through the monoclinic gamma-phase sulfur technology by using steam to treat carbon nanofiber webs and solved the polysulfide problem."

"This breakthrough can greatly increase the service life of the battery, reduce the expansion rate, and make up for the natural defects of sulfur positive electrode batteries. It can be regarded as a revolutionary innovation."

"This kind of technology is even more advanced than ours. I think everyone should also be aware of the threat it brings."

"At present, the maximum density of sulfur lithium battery technology we have mastered can reach 400wh/kg, which is already extremely advanced worldwide. However, in the solution they proposed this time, the energy density can reach 500wh/kg, and it will soon be able to break through the laboratory stage to achieve mass production."

"Once the other party really mass-produces this technology, it will be a fatal blow to us."

"So, I need your advice here: in what way should we maintain our strengths?"

After saying that, the man glanced at the audience with a sharp look like an eagle and a falcon. Even the thick lenses could not stop the majesty that overflowed from his eyes.

Under his pressure, all the subordinates present shuddered involuntarily. Someone wanted to speak, but was quietly stopped by the people around him with their eyes.

This is the principle of survival in the workplace of the island country. In front of superiors who have a higher qualification than you, no matter how confident you are, you must restrain yourself.

After a long time, at the critical point where silence was about to arouse men's anger, someone finally spoke:

"Watanabe, you are the sales strategy manager in Huaxia District, so you can speak first."

Watanabe, who was named after the name, did not feel surprised. Instead, he stood up respectfully and bowed, then picked up the materials at hand and started talking.

"Everyone, as Mr. Shiraishi said, our competitors have made important breakthroughs in sulfur lithium battery technology, and this breakthrough has posed a threat to our market position. This is a serious problem and a serious dereliction of duty."

"First of all, I want to express my apology to everyone here on behalf of our Huaxia team. It is our mistake to not get the information earlier. Sorry!"

As he said, Watanabe bowed again.

He didn't care about this painless apology, because he knew that it was just a gesture.

In fact, no one can predict such a sudden technological breakthrough in advance, especially when such technological breakthroughs are still dominated by the other party’s official authority.

This is the first time the name of the General Technical Planning Office has appeared in their vision, but it was this time when they emerged, which put them in a rare crisis in the history of development.

That's right, they did face the technological impact of other companies before and have lagged behind many times, but every time they achieved technological mergers through capital operation, maintaining their leading position.

But this time, everything seems to be different.

The other party’s official directly led the direction of technology research and development and application manufacturing, and their hands may not be able to reach.

But fortunately, they still have an inner support, and it is this inner support that gives them hope of breaking the deadlock in such extremely dangerous situations now.

Thinking of this, he continued:

"Although the situation is so urgent, under our early layout, we are still not without strategies to deal with it."

"First of all, I want to make clear that we have obtained most of the documents on the other party's new technology through our holding company. Although these documents are not complete, combined with our original technical foundation, it is not impossible to come up with a new generation of sulfur lithium battery technology before the other party."

"So, based on this situation, my suggestions are as follows."

"First, we need to do our best to learn and develop new technologies and speed up the manufacturing of a new generation of batteries before the other party."

"Secondly, I will assign our holding companies to help them slow down the development of each other's R&D. Even if it only slows down for one day, it will be a huge advantage for us."

"Third, we need to preheat the new generation of batteries in advance, seize the publicity advantages, solidify customers in advance, and ensure that even if the other party can come up with new products, it will not have an impact on our market."

"The above is the strategy our team has discussed. If you have any different opinions, please correct me!"

After saying that, he bowed slightly and sat down, looking at Shiraishi.

Shiraishi nodded slightly and said:

"Mr. Watanabe's strategy is very professional and is in line with our actual situation. However, I would like to ask more questions. Is there a possibility that the other party will complete the product production and release it in advance at a speed we could not predict?"

After a little contemplation, Watanabe nodded and replied:

“There is this possibility.”

"However, even if the other party takes the lead, it will definitely shake our market. Because the other party's actions are too hasty. Unlike us, they have not yet formed a solid reputation internationally. Then, such products that have been completed and released hastily cannot be recognized by the market."

Hearing this, Shiraishi's brows frowned slightly, and then opened his mouth and said:

“I remember we had urgently released products before, but those products were recognized in the market as well.”

A smile appeared on Watanabe's face. After nodding slightly to express his approval to the other party, he spoke:

"Mr. Shiraishi is worthy of being the legendary 'heldor', you are still cautious as always."

“I can also explain this to you.”

"In fact, the reason is very simple, that is, every product we have released urgently before was actually based on one principle."

“Generation Disaster.”

"We guarantee the generation difference between our products and other products. This generation difference makes our products unstable instability in time, and customers are willing to try it."

“Because our advantages are too obvious.”

"Not all of you here are technicians, so let me give you an extremely simple example. A car that can run 400 kilometers in a row will not have an accident, and a car that can run 1,000 kilometers in a row will have an accident with a very small probability. Our customers know which one I want to choose."

"So, based on the above principles, we can make a judgment."

Speaking of this, he looked around, and then his tone suddenly became extremely confident.

"Yes, the other party's technology is very advanced, but they are only two or three years ahead of us."

"This kind of leading advantage is definitely not enough to suppress us in generational differences."

"And as long as generation difference cannot be formed, we still have opportunities---no, it is not that there are still opportunities, but that our advantages have never been shaken."
