Like Ugly, because of the release of sulfur silicon batteries, the island country Panasonic is also in a bleak cloud.

They have paid huge costs in the past few weeks, and even interrupted most other projects for the so-called sulfur-lithium battery, investing all their funds and resources in the research and development of sulfur-lithium battery. However, when they were interviewed for the last battery, they found that what they got was just a whole generation of technology lagging behind others.

What Shanshan Co., Ltd.? What technology is leaking?

All are pretense!

It was just a smoke bomb that someone deliberately threw out, or even a fish hook with tempting bait.

He swallowed the bait and then, as expected, was hooked to his throat by the fish hook.

Now, do they have any way to make a move?

The battery has been produced, and subsequent plans and contracts have been arranged. If temporarily changed, it is likely to cause greater losses.

But if you keep publishing...

That is equivalent to giving up one's original position.

Originally, China's battery technology has been expanding its advantages in recent years. Now, the other party has not even allowed him to be the second child.

Winners take all are fully reflected at this moment.

Shiraishi sat decadently in the office, with a contract that had been signed for less than 5 days in his hand.

That was a one-year raw material lithium purchase contract with Greenbushese, and the price was 225% of the previous contract.

The numbers on it seemed like a huge irony.

Just a few days ago, they were complacent about getting the world's lowest price, and the company's senior executives even held a celebration meeting specifically for themselves.

But now?

This contract has become a nightmare that drags the entire company into the abyss.

After a long silence, Shiraishi spoke:

"Let's break the contract."

"If the contract is broken, we will bear 30% of the liquidated damages and it will be a one-time payment, which is an unbearable loss for us!"

"I know, I know. But if we don't break the contract and continue to eat this contract, the losses we will face will be greater..."

"This is not necessarily true? Although the other party has controlled the high-end market, it is undeniable that our sulfur and lithium batteries still have certain competitiveness. Even if we only do the mid-to-low-end, we can still digest the price increase effect of the contract within this year, which is much stronger than our huge cash flow at one time!"

Hearing this, Shiraishi shook his head, and the expression on his face became cold and tough again.

After all, he is an old man who has been in the mall for a long time. Under such a blow, although he was a little disobedient in a short period of time, his speed of restoring his rationality was also amazing.

His eyes were staring at the person who was talking, and he scolded in a stern tone:

"What opponent do you think we are facing? Where do you think our technology comes from?! It would be fine if it was really a technology leak, but now we have confirmed that this is a smoke bomb deliberately released by the other party. Can we still trust the technology in our hands?"

"You didn't try to get to know our opponents in the past! They couldn't leave us anything! Even the technology behind a generation!"

"In previous tests, we have found that there are problems with the steam treatment of lithium sulfur compounds. The battery stability will deteriorate when the temperature and heat change rapidly. However, because we believe that the probability of such application scenarios is low, we did not immediately start to solve it."

"Now, we have retested it and the conclusion is that even the temperature fluctuations around 20 degrees are enough to affect the stability of the battery!"

"In many parts of the world, their temperature difference between day and night is more than 20 degrees!"

"This has a very small impact, yes, but over time, the probability of a battery explosion accident will be greatly increased!"

"Do you really want to completely destroy our goodwill with such an unstable battery?"

Looking at Shiraishi who was furious like a hunting dog, all the employees who wanted to express different opinions were silent.

After a week of looking around, Shiraishi organized a vote and then determined the strategy of breaking the contract with a ratio of 55 to 32.

That night, Panasonic issued a notice of breaking the contract with greenbushese, but they did not recall the batteries that had been shipped in advance.

Everyone was immersed in pain, and the rounds of bowing and apology seemed to have no end. However, such apology did not end up in the end.

Because on the second day after they began to organize the comprehensive improvement of sulfur lithium battery technology, the battery purchased by a small car company in the island country exploded, causing a test runner to suffer a mild burn.

The flames also ignited a grocery store on the roadside. Fortunately, the fire was put out in time and did not cause any more serious consequences.

The car company immediately filed a judicial lawsuit against Panasonic without any hesitation. Within the following days, the preliminary technical investigation results were announced:

The reason for the battery explosion was simply because the car drove under the scorching sun and entered the automated car wash room to wash the car, and then continued to return to the scorching sun for a short time.

The drastic temperature changes caused the battery to explode, just like Panasonic had discovered.

The investigation is still continuing, but internal news has begun to leak. A Panasonic internal staff member who did not want to be named revealed that they had already discovered this hidden danger, but considering the market and goodwill, no recall was immediately carried out.

The remark caused an uproar. Panasonic wanted to struggle, but official investigations had already followed one after another. In the end, they were forced to admit their technical flaws, recall all batteries, and bowed and apologized.

A famous company that has been famous for a century has once again faced a huge crisis.

...

Sichuan, Shufei Manufacturing Factory.

Ye Zhou sat in an office reserved specifically for him, and the screen was about the recent scandal of Panasonic Group.

"You guys are doing a very ruthless job. You dare to bury such technical loopholes in it. Are you afraid that something big will happen?"

Chen Hao, who was sitting opposite, smiled and replied:

"It's not our responsibility to have something really happened. You see, the technology we gave to Shanshan is exactly the same as the technology we obtained from Panasonic. Why didn't Shanshan do this? "

"The answer is simple. There are our shares inside Shanshan, so we strictly require them to allow releases after completing all tests. And Panasonic? They gave up so much to grab the time that many decisions have been deformed."

"So, no matter what kind of technical loopholes, they will not directly lead to serious consequences, but they seem to be just arrogance and carelessness."

Hearing this, Ye Zhou nodded.

This is indeed a fact. The steam treatment process for lithium sulfur compounds is not mature enough. Logically speaking, the other party should have gone through repeated tests before the battery can be launched on the market.

However, they didn't do that, and the problem would be serious.

The nature of this behavior is just like a series of problems such as Sla's pushing the entire car when its intelligent system is not perfect, resulting in a series of problems such as locking the car, losing control, and brake failure.

They are all trying to die.

Thinking of this, Ye Zhou spoke:

"This time Panasonic was basically knocked down, and our opponents are gradually getting fewer, which is pretty good."

"I won't talk about them anymore. I plan to stay here at Chendu in the future. Please help me arrange it."

Chen Hao nodded and agreed, then asked:

"What about your next plan? Continue to plan with Nantianmen, or do exoskeletons, or continue to optimize the battery?"

Ye Zhou shook his head and replied:

"These are things you have to do. I can't follow up on the follow-up optimization of the technology, as the cost-effectiveness ratio is too low."

“I have to open up new paths.”

"The next step is to do special-level quantum computing first."

"I don't know the direction yet. Maybe it's molecular simulation, maybe it's RSA decryption, maybe it's quantum machine learning... In short, it will bring us some new changes."
