Chapter 106 A brand new idea!

Chen's mother did not talk to him about work, even though the news was full of news that America had included light armor aerospace in the control list, and might further expand the scope to include light armor technology as well.

When Chen Yuanguang and his mother were having breakfast in the morning, the news on TV was reporting related news at 30 minutes past midnight. Chen's mother did not ask what the situation was or how they planned to solve it. She acted calmly as if nothing had happened.

"How are you and Xiaolin doing lately? Are you planning on getting married soon?"

Chen's mother was actually very interested in his work, but in order to prevent Chen Yuanguang from wanting to work while on vacation at home, she simply didn't ask and directly cared about his love life.

If Chen Yuanguang knew that his mother was thinking this way, he would say: Let’s talk about work.

Chen Yuanguang murmured, "What else can I do? It's okay. Our relationship has always been stable.

It’s still a bit early to get married. I don’t have any plans for now. I don’t have the time or energy.”

Chen's mother shook her head: "Why do you need any energy? You just need to get a certificate and hold a ceremony. There are a group of people who can help you provide services. It will take you at most a day and a half.

Actually, I don’t want to care, I just think if you have a good relationship, you should stop making trouble.

If you want to try more people, tell them clearly as soon as possible so as not to waste their time.

The entanglement between you two is too deep. You should clarify it as soon as possible so that you can be friends and cooperate with each other at work instead of falling out. "Mother Chen is very open-minded.

Chen Yuanguang was helpless: "Mom, what are you thinking? I'm just not in a hurry to get married, it doesn't mean I want to change people."

Chen Yuanguang thought it was more comfortable to be alone.

When she was with Chen's mother, she was always concerned about Chen Yuanguang's love life, while when she was with Chen's father, he was very concerned about his career:
"Son, I would say don't put too much pressure on yourself. Why are you promoting asteroid mining? Setting the goal so high and then focusing on it will put endless pressure on yourself.

I never taught you this, did I? Being happy is the most important thing, and everything else is secondary. Although the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, you can't shoulder everything on your shoulders.

If you ask me, something as difficult as asteroid mining should be coordinated by the country, and China Aerospace should coordinate and arrange this matter. You only need to be responsible for a small part of it.

In this way, your pressure will be reduced, China's aerospace sector will have political achievements, and you won't be embarrassing yourself.

It's easy to make yourself a target of public criticism now.

A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. You are so dazzling that I can't believe it. My highest expectation of you before was that you could become a university professor.

Now that you have far exceeded my expectations, you need to slow down."

Chen Yuanguang didn't explain much. How could he slow down? He even thought the progress was too slow:

"I know."

On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Chen Yuanguang hurried back to Shenhai. He felt that life at home was unbearable, so he might as well go back to work.

"Yuanguang, Happy New Year." Li Xiande pretended to be intimate and asked Chen Yuanguang to meet at a private club in Shenhai.

America's ban on the import of Guangjia Technology's technology will obviously have a huge impact on these photovoltaic manufacturers.

On the day when America announced that it would include Guangjia Aerospace in its Entity List, Li Xiande asked Chen Yuanguang to meet him one year later. He thought it was a small matter and not to worry too much.

"Happy New Year, Mr. Li." Chen Yuanguang also exchanged a few words of greeting after sitting down.

“In fact, there is no need to worry too much. The global market is not limited to the American market. Europe, Japan, Korea, Southeast Asia, South America, etc. all have strong demand.

Perovskite batteries are just getting started, and once they have established a foothold in these markets and lack growth, there will still be time to find ways to develop the American market.

Second, who says you have to sell equipment to American before you can do business with American?

It is entirely possible to sell photovoltaic equipment equipped with perovskite cells to the United States and Mexico, and then these two places will sell electricity to America.

The power systems between America and the United States are fully interconnected, and they export a large amount of electricity to America every year.

Mexico will also export some of it.

America won't allow the import of technology, so it can just import products, right? No matter how powerful America is, they can't tell the difference between hydropower, solar energy, and nuclear power, right? "

As a veteran in the photovoltaic industry, Li Xiande was accustomed to the double standards of Western countries. He did not take the ban seriously at all. He asked Chen Yuanguang to come out for a chat, looking relaxed.

After listening to this, Chen Yuanguang knew that this was a good opportunity to obtain information. This first-hand information from the industry would help him make subsequent decisions:
"Mr. Li, don't the Maple Leaf Country rely mainly on clean energy?
Do they have a strong demand for photovoltaics? "

In Chen Yuanguang's understanding, the Maple Leaf Country may not necessarily need photovoltaics, or in other words, for a country with such excellent resource endowments, Chen Yuanguang is skeptical as to whether perovskite can really enter their market.

Li Xiande took a sip of tea and said, "The Maple Leaf Country is different from us. They don't have a huge power grid. There are many different power companies responsible for generating electricity.

Transactions between power companies must be approved by the energy authorities of each province, which is a rather troublesome matter.

You mentioned relying on clean energy. They mainly rely on hydropower and have abundant water resources, but not every province has abundant water resources. The provinces with abundant water resources are British Columbia, Manitoba, Quebec and Newfoundland and Labrador.

These four provinces contribute 56% of the Maple Leaf Country's electricity, and also export large quantities to other provinces and the United States.

These four provinces are almost entirely hydroelectric, accounting for more than 95%. The high proportion of hydroelectricity leads to low electricity prices, and photovoltaics have no market in these places at all, and they won't even look at them.

But the Maple Leaf Country does not only have these four provinces. In other provinces, such as Alberta, Ontario, New Brunswick, Saskatchewan, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island, hydropower accounts for a very small proportion.

Hydropower-rich provinces sell electricity to other provinces in the country at a higher price than they sell it to America, and at a much higher price.

If the price that the Southern Power Grid sold to the Northern Power Grid was lower than the price that it sold to Annan, public opinion would have been boiling. However, in foreign countries, people would think that this is a business behavior of the enterprise, and no one would think there is anything wrong with it. "

Li Xiande was very familiar with the general situation of the American countries, and he analyzed the situation clearly in just a few sentences:

"ATCO Power, EPCOR Utilities, ENMAX Power and other companies in Alberta are all talking to us. After seeing the performance data of HJT batteries, they all hope to introduce our products on a large scale.

Alberta is located in the southern part of the Maple Leaf Country and borders Washington. After we sell photovoltaic panels to them, they can sell energy to America.

This is just one way to circumvent the ban, not to mention selling the product to Mexico, which then sells it to America.

After the ban came out, AICO urgently signed a billion-dollar order with us. They were worried that the Maple Leaf Country would follow suit and ban the import of Guangjia Aerospace products.

They asked for the goods to be delivered as soon as possible and cooperate with them in the installation.

In this era, there are few bans that can really stop something. It just depends on whether your product is attractive. "China's photovoltaic industry has fought its way out of the fierce competition with American and European companies. Li Xiande is already accustomed to these tricks.

When he saw the news, he felt that this was an opportunity. By changing hands through Mexico, they would have the opportunity to directly engage in photovoltaic operation business.

It is almost impossible for Chinese companies to build power plants in America, even if it is environmentally friendly energy such as new energy. In addition, the policies and regulations are unstable.

Now that America has banned the import of products related to light armor aerospace technology, the demand still exists and it will not disappear because of the ban.

Li Xiande believes that JinkoSolar can invest in building photovoltaic power stations in Mexico and then sell the electricity to American.

Mexico's labor costs and regulations are also more friendly to Chinese companies.

Chen Yuanguang nodded as he listened. The reason why he was willing to meet with this group of entrepreneurs was because talking with them was always eye-opening.

There are all kinds of unreasonable phenomena in the real world, or what you think is reasonable may be unreasonable in other places.

“I know what you mean. If we can’t sell products, then I will sell services.”

Li Xiande's words gave Chen Yuanguang a new idea for solving the problem. I can decouple the human hibernation equipment from human hibernation.

Since sound can be transmitted through electrical signals, ultrasound is also a type of sound, so it can also be transmitted through electrical signals.

Guangjia Technology can open up its patents so that every company can make similar ultrasonic converters, and then they can sell them.

It is equivalent to an ultrasonic converter receiving signals from Light Armor Technology, and then emitting ultrasonic waves to cause the human body to hibernate.

Previously, they sold equipment, but now they sell services and make their equipment patents public. America can’t stop Guangjia Technology from expanding its business around the world.

At the same time, it can evade supervision. I just sell signals. I have no control over what they do with these signals.

As for the ultrasonic converter, I did not produce it, so I am not responsible for it.

Chen Yuanguang felt that he had found the solution, but there were still two problems to overcome.

The first problem is that because the human body's hibernation requires extremely precise ultrasound, the conversion of electrical signals into ultrasound must achieve this precision, which is certainly not possible with current piezoelectric crystals.

The conversion between electrical signals and ultrasonic waves is mainly achieved through piezoelectric and inverse piezoelectric effects.

The piezoelectric effect is generated by the linear electromechanical interaction between the mechanical state and the electrical state in the crystalline material, which does not have anti-phase symmetry. However, it is a reversible process, and the inverse piezoelectric effect is used to generate ultrasound.

To evolve the piezoelectric crystal.

The second difficulty is signal encryption. Once it is cracked, your patent will be made public, and then the ultrasound corresponding to hibernation will also be cracked, then all your work will be in vain.

By solving these two problems, Guangjia Technology's human hibernation business has changed from to B to C, and from a medical manufacturing business to a software service business.

It’s not that software services are more high-end, but that software services are less easily constrained by others.

More importantly, Li Xiande's words helped Chen Yuanguang open up his mind. In the future, when faced with similar problems, he could solve them by looking at them from a different perspective.

"That's what I mean. Anyway, don't take it too seriously.

At the beginning, we were very nervous when facing the EU's anti-dumping investigation, but looking back, we realized that it was all a paper tiger.

I also know some corporate executives who were previously on the Entity List. They were also very nervous at first, worried about this and that. Later, everyone found that there didn’t seem to be much impact, and the revenue and profits might be affected by less than 10%.

Even if the impact is great, there are various ways to make up for it.

And I think America’s ban on perovskite is not just aimed at China, but also at European companies.

The European media are watching the show, and they hope that the fight between America and China will become as intense as possible.

Just wait and see. The first place America will take substantive action is Europe. According to my information, America is already mobilizing European photovoltaic companies to move to America.

Korea's Hanwha has already moved its photovoltaic business focus to America, and Meyer Burger will soon follow. America has banned perovskite technology from entering America, which will destroy half of Europe's photovoltaic industry."

Chen Yuanguang feels that Li Xiande has been trained to have a fearless spirit. It seems that only in a fully competitive environment can people and enterprises be adequately trained.

"Guangjia Technology will terminate its cooperation with Arcadia from today. The two parties have terminated the contract amicably. The company will no longer conduct business in North America and will focus on global markets except America."

Guangjia Technology speaks out through various channels including statutory information disclosure channels, Weibo, investor interaction platforms, and the company's official website.

On Weibo, Chen Yuanguang reposted this post:

"Due to the unfair treatment that another company under my control has received in America, I believe that there are extremely high uncontrollable risks in the American market, so Guangjia Technology will also suspend its business in the United States."

"Chen Yuanguang is tough"

"Guangjia Technology suspends its business in the United States"

"Human hibernation equipment will no longer be exported to America"

"Light Armor Technology Reverse Control"

For a while, Weibo was full of hot searches related to this incident. After the news was announced, the stock price of Guangjia Technology plummeted again, this time by 15%, and there was no sign of rebound after the fall.

The market voted with its feet, expressing its disapproval of Chen Yuanguang's behavior.

Chen Yuanguang's repost received a lot of applause:

"The God of Light is so domineering! This is the first time I see a Chinese enterprise doing the opposite. It feels great."

"Americans are always dictating this and that, it's time for them to have a taste of what it's like to be dictated to"

"Damn, it's spring, but why does it feel as good as eating a popsicle when I come home from the sun in the summer?"

"Let America know that Chinese companies can still survive well without their market!"
