Global Monopoly of Technology

Things have finally returned to calm, and Lao Yu, who is in charge of Glory, is also relieved. Glory is the most worried about this moth. Once it collapses, it will affect the chip production capacity and supply time. Glory has just made plans to launch products this year. The plan is bound to fail.

The launch time of Honor's first-generation products basically depends on the delivery time of the first chips of Xiongxin Electronics.

Fortunately, there is no danger.

...

Cote d'Azur Company, City of Galaxies Headquarters, CEO Office.

Today, Luo Sheng rarely came to the company to clock in on time, but at the moment in his office, Yao Jianhong looked at the big boss with a look of astonishment, and carefully recalled what he just said.

"Mr. Luo, I heard right, are we going to enter the auto industry?"

Just now, when Yao Jianhong heard Luo Sheng's idea, he was a little confused. He found that he couldn't catch up with the big boss's idea at all. He didn't know what to say about this crossover.

Huaguo is now a veritable automobile consumer country, but it is definitely not a powerhouse in the automobile industry. The automobile industry is undoubtedly the backbone of modern high-end manufacturing. Whether a country's manufacturing industry is advanced or backward depends on the automobile industry to a large extent. You can get a glimpse of it.

The Japanese, Americans, and Germans are the representatives of the automobile field, and they are all big and powerful countries in industrial manufacturing.

"You heard it right, but you may have misunderstood, I want to build a car, not to benchmark Toyota and other traditional cars, but to benchmark Tesla's new energy electric vehicles, not only that, the car we want to build is unmanned and automatic Drive." Luo Sheng said with great certainty.

For a while, Yao Jianhong was stunned that he couldn't match a word. He could sense from Luo Sheng's expression and tone that he was not joking.

Does BOSS want to initiate a new round of big changes in the automotive industry?

Luo Sheng said in an orderly manner: "It is realized in three strategic steps. The first step is to build the company, the second step to realize the listing of electric vehicles, and the third step to realize unmanned autonomous driving."

For the Cote d'Azur, there is no gene for car-making at all. The so-called interlacing is like a mountain, not to mention such a large span.

The automotive industry is a cyclical industry, and the key point is that it is an asset-heavy industry, with huge investment, slow turnover, and numerous competitors.

Seeing Luo Sheng, Yao Jianhong said calmly,

But he doesn't think so, but he will not object, and objection is invalid, not to mention that the BOSS has never overturned.

Obviously, Luo Sheng is trying to drive industrial change with innovative technology and rise in the change.

Without dimensionality reduction, it is impossible to beat those century-old giants in the automotive industry.

Tesla is actually similar, but Tesla has not thought about the change of driverless, just a new energy electric vehicle brand.

Yao Jianhong said, "Mr. Luo, Mr. Luo, I'm afraid that the Cote d'Azur can't come up with so much money."

In fact, the Côte d’Azur is not short of money now. The current cash reserve is at least 40 billion US dollars. However, the company uses money in many places. Now it is still fighting with Microsoft in the subsidy war. It loses 20 to 30 million US dollars every day here.

There is still a lot of R\u0026D investment that requires money. In addition, to enter the unfounded automobile industry, the initial investment is destined to be a huge amount of money.

After a while, Yao Jianhong asked, "Would you like to issue $10 billion in corporate bonds in advance?"

Hearing this, Luo Sheng shook his head and said calmly: "No, enter this field, set up a joint venture, invest in the Cote d'Azur, I personally still have some money, and if I bring in a few more VCs, the money will be more, play and create. Cars can't be done alone, and you think I build cars to sell them?"

The last sentence made Yao Jianhong puzzled. When he looked at Luo Sheng, he found that the other party smiled mysteriously, obviously unwilling to say anything. The old Yao, who was sold by him, was scratching his heart like a cat.

Yao Jianhong asked simply and directly: "How much is the registered capital of this subsidiary?"

Luo Sheng pondered for a moment and said, "35 billion yuan."

Yao Jianhong smacked his lips secretly, billions of dollars were no longer enough to satisfy the boss's taste, and now it's on the order of tens of billions, and he felt that the boss was rushing towards the goal of the industry giant.

Luo Sheng told Yao Jianhong about this matter and left the company, but Lao Yao has been puzzled for a long time today, and has been speculating that Luo Sheng said that cars are not built to sell cars, but for what?

I can't figure this out even if I think about it.

...

The next day, Luo Sheng took his special plane to the capital.

This time, the layout of new energy electric vehicles will never be as simple as it seems. This is an extremely grand strategic plan. No country can't play, unless Luo Sheng just wants to be a successful new energy vehicle company, but this is obviously not the case. He said he was satisfied.

Luo Sheng's ambition is more than ten times greater than this.

After arriving in the capital, Luo Sheng was not in a hurry to meet people, because not all the people he wanted to meet were present, and it was not until the morning of the third day in the capital that Luo Sheng left.

The meeting place was a closed-door secret meeting at the State Grid headquarters.

...

In the conference room, more than a dozen participants were big-name figures, including big leaders, senior researchers from strategic research institutes, national think tanks, and, of course, the general manager of State Grid.

Luo Sheng was present, and this closed-door meeting was actually held for him. Looking at the enterprise level across the country, I am afraid that he is the only one who can do this.

After Luo Sheng explained for half an hour, the leaders at the meeting looked around with a smile and said, "New energy vehicles, driverless cars, Comrade Luo Sheng is really high-tech, and his ideas are very bold, but the concept of driverless cars is just that. Is it reliable?"

Drive the car yourself? Without a driver? Several leaders who attended the meeting actually still felt unreliable.

"It's just building a car, whether it's human-driven or unmanned, Comrade Luo Sheng, is it a bit of a fuss?" Another leader said calmly, if Luo Sheng made such a big move to bring the big guys together, it was for the sake of Start a car company, to be honest, the leaders will definitely be dissatisfied when they go back.

How big is it?

At this moment, Luo Sheng's next words made the audience unable to sit still.

"Leaders, what if I'm talking about an opportunity to break the monopoly of petrodollar hegemony?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned, and everyone looked at each other. After a while, a senior researcher of the Strategic Research Institute couldn't help asking: "Mr. Luo, what do you say?"

The petrodollar hegemony system makes the old United States collect "seigniorage" in the world. On the one hand, it denounces and hates it, and on the other hand, it dreams of becoming the most hated appearance.

In the view of several national think tanks participating in the meeting, Luo Sheng's words are unrealistic. The old US petrodollar hegemony is supported by its unparalleled global military hegemony, and further has global financial hegemony, so US imperialism is the world's overlord.

Luo Sheng immediately took out the PPT presentation he specially prepared for the leaders, and operated the remote control in his hand to explain to the leaders in simple language: "Leaders, I want to build electric cars, I want to sell electric cars. Not false, but it's all secondary, even trivial to the state."

Hearing this, everyone was confused, but they were very patient. Luo Sheng glanced at President Liu of State Grid, smiled and continued: "Selling cars is just to earn some pocket money for the national finance, we only sell electricity. It is fundamental, and this is also the biggest purpose of my proposal to hold this seminar at the State Grid headquarters."

The leader said: "What does this have to do with breaking the monopoly of petrodollar hegemony?"

Luo Sheng explained in an orderly manner with a smile on his face:

"Humanity cannot do without oil resources, and in the same modern society, human beings cannot do without power resources. When the State Grid strategy realizes global networking, Eurasian networking, and even global networking in turn, it will be responsible for one-third of the global network. We have a monopoly on power resources if we generate more than 2% of electricity.”

"Wherever the border of the national grid expands, I will build tens of thousands of electric vehicle charging stations. This is a vast infrastructure project to ensure that electric vehicles can quickly reach the nearest places as long as there are roads. A charging station supplements the power source, and the Côte d’Azur laboratory has been secretly developing new battery technology for fast charging.”

"Graphene batteries are one of our major areas of expertise. Once this technology is implemented, a ten-minute charge can allow an electric car to run 500 kilometers. What does this mean? It means that the car can run all over the area radiated by the national grid. If After completing the nationwide network, this electric vehicle can travel all over the country, and if it is in Eurasia, it can drive all the way from Shencheng to Moscow and Paris, as long as we have charging stations along the road to replenish.”

"When the day comes when electric vehicles replace traditional fuel vehicles, when thousands of power supply stations are scattered all over the place, when electricity resources replace fuel resources, whether electric vehicle brands are domestic brands, German brands, American brands, South Korean brands, etc. Brands don't matter anymore, because their cars need electricity to move, and the electricity is ours, and the power supply station is ours, these two cards are the double king fried."

"At that time, we will only wait until the time is ripe. The so-called ripe time is the day when our national strength rises. We announce that we only accept RMB to settle electricity consumption, and do not accept other currencies. To ease up, settlement in RMB is about 30% cheaper than settlement in US dollars. Once this situation is realized, what will the landscape look like?”

"We do not expect to rely on electricity resources to replace petrodollar hegemony, but once this strategy is realized, the foundation of petrodollar hegemony has been shaken. We are not strong enough now, so let's talk about it first."

"As long as we wait until the day when our comprehensive national strength, especially military strength, can be compared with that of the old and the United States, the RMB linked to electricity will replace the dollar linked to oil worldwide...it is an inevitable result."

After Luo Sheng's speech ended, the conference room fell into a state of silence. President Liu, who was in charge of the State Grid, couldn't help holding his breath at this moment.
