Deputy Wang Chuan was not surprised and said, "It's a battery cooperation? Isn't the beam ready to cooperate with CATL?"

"Mr. Wang, don't you know the rules of the automotive industry yet? There is no reason why there is only one core component supplier. In terms of battery, I also intend to purchase from BYD, but I am not talking about this, but I hope that in the early stages of beam research and development, BYD can produce OEM for us and form cooperation in technology." Zhou Yujie officially said.

Although there is no shortage of money, some things are really not something that can be handled with money. Although the beam is under construction, the speed of such a base is nearly two years. In addition, subsequent equipment is commissioned and trial production, and if it wants to popularize it on a large scale, it will take at least three years. This time is almost the time required to design a car model.

However, when designing a car, a lot of resources are needed to build the sample car, and there are various tests in the future. These are operated by a group of inexperienced teams, and the speed will be very slow. If you can obtain cooperation from another automobile factory, it will be much more convenient.

Deputy Wang Chuan said: "Mr. Zhou, BYD has no plans to produce OEM for others now."

Zhou Yujie said: "This is not considered OEM, it is just a preliminary cooperation. We will help us carry out the manufacturing and testing of the sample car in advance. When we are batched, we will produce it ourselves."

"If you say so, I, BYD, don't think it's any better." Wang Chuan said with a chuckling. Not to mention whether to take on car OEM, any OEM must be a batch order when making money.

Zhou Yujie smiled and said, "Mr. Wang, don't worry, the price will definitely satisfy you. In addition, if Mr. Wang is interested, how about investing in my beam?"

"Do you want to raise funds?" Deputy Wang Chuan asked.

Zhou Yujie smiled and said, "It's financing, but not for money, but for resources."

Deputy Wang Chuan nodded and said, "I understand, but our relationship seems to be a competitor, right?"

"In our Internet industry, we are actually competitors, and all our businesses are for users' time and users' wallets. However, we will cooperate frequently, as long as it is beneficial to ourselves." Zhou Yujie smiled and said, "Besides, the new energy vehicle market is rapidly erupting. Even if we are competitors, in fact, we may not have conflicts in the next twenty years. This is the benefit of the incremental market."

In a shopping mall, it is equivalent to a group of people eating cakes. Everyone is competitors to each other. But if the cake is expanding rapidly and the speed exceeds the speed of everyone eating, then there is no conflict between everyone, because there is no one of their own portions, and who will rob others of others?

Deputy Wang Chuan nodded and said, "How much is the current valuation of the beam?"

Zhou Yujie said: "Because it involves business cooperation, this aspect is quite complicated. We should discuss it after the professionals have made it clear."

Deputy Wang Chuan thought about it and felt it made sense, so he said, "Okay, if the price is OK, I'm happy to invest in a stock."

The rise of new car-making forces has brought about disruptive changes in the entire automobile industry. Traditional automobile giants may not necessarily continue to maintain their throne. BYD is one of the challengers, but Wang Chuanshou will not be confident that only he can do this.

Although NIO and Xiaopeng's achievements are average now, they have a certain foundation, not to mention Tesla, a giant in the electric vehicle industry. Although Zhou Yujie has just entered this industry, his advantages in other fields are too strong, which has led to him being short of funds, publicity channels, and talents. With so many conditions, the possibility of success should be quite high. Now, if you still invest in technology, it is basically unlikely to lose money.

Zhou Yujie continued: "Mr. Wang, in order to make our cooperation more smooth, I am planning to acquire a batch of BYD stocks on the Hong Kong stock market, but if you need it here, I can also accept targeted stock increase."

If you acquire directly in the stock market, the money will flow into the hands of other shareholders or shareholders. If you increase the stock in a targeted manner, the funds will go to BYD's account. However, the bad thing is that it will dilute the shareholding ratio of BYD shareholders. Which one to choose depends on the actual needs of the company.

"Mr. Zhou is really easy to plan." Deputy Wang Chuan smiled and asked, "How much money is Mr. Zhou going to invest?"

Zhou Yujie said: "It depends on Mr. Wang. If Mr. Wang is unwilling to increase stocks in a targeted manner, then I just want to buy some in the secondary market. If Mr. Wang is willing, 5 billion or 10 billion can be done."

To be rich means to be bold.

In addition to the huge amount of Bitcoin funds, Toutiao's business is also preparing to be split and listed. Although the funds listed belong to the company, Zhou Yujie will also cash out part of it. The funds combined easily exceed 10 billion US dollars. Another source of funds is the profits of overseas market games over the years.

Although the game's profit is only a few hundred million US dollars a year, these funds have acquired stocks of Tesla, Google, Facebook, Amazon, and Apple. As the market value of American Internet giants and Tesla rises wildly, the value of this funds will easily increase by more than ten times or even dozens of times.

Especially Tesla's stocks, Zhou Yujie currently has 8% of the shares. These stocks are worth hundreds of dollars in a few years. If you cash out then and use this money to develop your own electric car, the expression on Musk's face will definitely be interesting.

"Billions?" Wang Chuan's eyes changed. He thought it was only a few hundred million to play, but he never thought that Zhou Yujie could play so much.

It is absolutely fake to say that billions or even tens of billions of funds are not attractive to Wang Chuanpang. Since BYD entered the automobile industry in 2003, it has always been a wave-like development. It was invested by Buffett at its peak and favored by countless investors. At its peak, the stock price plummeted by 80% and was abused by the market.

This year is a year of peak period. Although it is not comparable to 10 years, the company's life is not easy. In the field of fuel vehicles, BYD's technology and brand have always been average. Compared with other domestic brands, it can only focus on cheap fields of about 100,000 yuan. In this way, sales are still worse than one month. The strong electric vehicle field has been unable to make it in the past two years. Although it has always focused on lithium iron phosphate batteries, although they are safe, their battery life still cannot meet the needs of many users.

BYD's current market value in Hong Kong stocks is about HK$180 billion, but this is just the market value and has nothing to do with the cash in the company's account. The sluggish automobile business in the past year has also brought considerable financial pressure to the company.

Zhou Yujie continued: "There is another small cooperation, and I want Mr. Wang to listen to it. If you are willing, you can cooperate even if you are depressed."

Deputy Wang Chuan asked: "What cooperation?"

Zhou Yujie said: "As for the charging pile business we just mentioned, I personally plan to set up a separate company that specializes in laying high-voltage charging piles in important cities across the country. However, I will not involve the manufacturing of charging piles, so I want to outsource this business. BYD has rich experience in production in this area, and I think this will be a good cooperation."
