Recently, the shareholding structure of Aichi Automobile has changed. Contemporary Anpu Technology Co., Ltd. invested in Aichi through its wholly-owned subsidiary Ningbo Meishan Bonded Port Win Investment Co., Ltd., with a registered capital of 30810.55 million yuan, accounting for 0.35506%.
As the world's largest power battery enterprise, almost all electric vehicles cannot be bypassed by Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd.. According to the data, Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. is the power battery manufacturer with the largest number of supporting vehicles in China, accounting for about 50% of the overall market. It occupies half of the supporting batteries for new energy vehicles in China, ranking first in the global power battery market.
Such a "dominant" power battery manufacturer also wants to build a car. Should the so-called new forces who build cars tremble?
The data shows that in 2020, Aichi Automobile sold only 2,600 vehicles in the domestic market. Compared with the new car-making forces such as Wei Lai and Tucki, it is not an order of magnitude at all. Even the zero sports car of the second echelon broke through the 10,000-car mark throughout the year. It is reported that after the investment of Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. is in place, Aichi is expected to land in the capital market, and the listing direction is likely to be US stocks.
The reason for choosing US stocks is that Aichi's first batch of customized U5 models have been delivered in mass production. In May, 2020, it successfully entered the EU market, and it was also the first and only new car enterprise in China to export to EU countries in large quantities. According to official data, by the end of the first quarter of 2002/kloc-0, Aichi U5 had exported 1056 vehicles (customs clearance), exceeding the total export volume in 2020.
Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. is the battery supplier of Aichi Automobile. U5 adopts ternary lithium battery of Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd.. The battery was jointly developed by Aichi Prefecture and Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd., with a cruising range of over 650 kilometers. It is planned to be put on the market in the fourth quarter of this year. It is also reported that Aichi's second U6 will continue to use contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Ltd., limited ternary lithium battery and CTP technology.
For a long time, the new car-making forces have been faced with the problem of the battery "stuck in the neck" of contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. The more companies that produce cars, the hotter the market, and the more popular the contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. that produces batteries.
The 2020 financial report released by Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. shows that the company's annual revenue is 50310.90 billion yuan, up 9.9% year-on-year, of which the sales of power battery systems are the main revenue source, accounting for 78.35% of the total revenue.
According to the data of SNEResearch, from 20 17 to 20 19, the installed capacity of power batteries of Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. ranked first in the world for three consecutive years. In 2020, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology announced the effective catalogue of new energy vehicles, with more than 6,800 vehicles, including more than 3,400 vehicles equipped with power batteries by Contemporary Amp Technology Co., Ltd., accounting for nearly 50% of the market.
In 2020, among the customers of Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. whose installed capacity of power batteries is TOP 10, new power enterprises will become the core customers of Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd., including ES8, EC6 and ES6 models of Weilai Automobile, which are exclusively supplied by Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd.
In short, Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. has occupied half of the supporting batteries for new energy vehicles and ranked first in the global power battery market. In this way, relevant analysts pointed out that for Changan and Aichi to announce that they will jointly build cars with Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd., if Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. only participates as a supplier, it is not excluded that these car companies will choose multiple power battery suppliers in the future. However, if Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. is a partner, the "top player" in the automobile industry will probably become the key to the survival of automobile enterprises by virtue of its strong negotiation advantage with downstream manufacturers.
For electric vehicles, the battery is the core vitality.
Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Ltd., like BYD, started as a storage battery, and later began to develop power batteries. The difference is that BYD has cut into automobile production, but Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. has not. Today, Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. has become the king of power batteries, and its ternary lithium battery technology leads the world.
However, as early as 20 18, Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. began to look for suitable upstream targets for vertical extension. According to the data of Huachuang Securities, as of April 2 1 year, Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. has invested in upstream lithium mines, nickel mines, cobalt mines, lithium carbonate, lithium hydroxide, cathode materials and lithium battery equipment.
Previously, Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. announced that "it will invest in high-quality listed enterprises in the upstream and downstream of domestic and foreign industrial chains in the form of securities investment. The total investment does not exceed 654.38+09.067 billion yuan, of which the total overseas investment does not exceed 654.38+072 billion yuan. " After the announcement, Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. moved on.
On September 14, 2020, Pioneer Intelligent, a manufacturer of lithium battery production equipment, announced that it planned to raise no more than 2.5 billion yuan through fixed increase, and Contemporary Amp Technology Co., Ltd. planned to subscribe for all the fixed increase shares. After the subscription, Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. will become the second largest shareholder of Pioneer Intelligence, accounting for 7.29% of the total share capital. On February 8, 65438, Yongfu Co., Ltd., an electric power survey and design enterprise, disclosed the changes in shareholders' equity. The controlling shareholder of the company intends to transfer14,568,000 shares of the listed company, accounting for 7.998% of the company's total share capital, to Contemporary Anpu Technology Co., Ltd., with a total transaction price of about 212 million yuan.
On June 8th this year, 65,438, the leading enterprise in lithium battery testing disclosed that Contemporary Anpu Technology Co., Ltd. subscribed for 3.096 million new shares of Xingyun through Fujian Mindong Times Rural Investment and Development Partnership, totaling 99.999 million yuan. On April 15, Tianhua Ultra-clean, the leader of anti-static ultra-clean technology, disclosed the report on issuing shares to specific targets. Finally, the number of issues was determined to be 12, in which Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. was allocated 654.38+20 million yuan.
According to Kai Xinbao's incomplete statistics, from 1996 to the end of 2020, Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. has 163 holding enterprises and 5 1 foreign-invested enterprises, among which 15 are battery manufacturing companies jointly established. Since 20 17, Contemporary Amp Technology Co., Ltd. has added dozens of holding companies almost every year, covering R&D of batteries and related businesses, manufacturing, materials, energy storage, retail, technology promotion, basic software development, investment and other industries.
In 2020, contemporary Amperex Technology Limited laid out a number of investment enterprises, including battery assets investment, private equity investment, start-ups and equity and securities investment, which may be related to the expansion of production capacity of contemporary Amperex Technology Limited. In addition, in 2020, Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. controlled and invested in 23 service and sales companies, and sold products including charging piles, batteries, equipment, materials and energy storage systems on the basis of expanding sales territory.
At present, Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. has successively invested in Pioneer Intelligence (300450), Yongfu Shares (3007 12) and Canadian Lithium Mine Company; In the field of new energy vehicles, participate in the financing of Baiteng B round, and cooperate with Huawei and Changan to build cars; In the field of autonomous driving, invest in technology; Chip field jointly led Horizon C2 round of financing. In addition, Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. has also issued a fixed increase plan of 20 billion yuan, and introduced star institutions such as Gao Yan Capital and Honda Motor Co., Ltd., and the raised funds will be used to expand production capacity.
Entrepreneurial Jianghu is either dead or alive.
On May 4th, the real-time data of Forbes Global Rich List showed that Zeng Yuqun, the chairman of Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Ltd., once surpassed Li Ka-shing for US$ 34.5 billion and became the richest man in China and Hongkong. In addition, due to the outstanding performance of Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd., there are 9 executives and investors in Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. on Forbes Global Rich List, including Vice Chairman Huang Shilin and Li Ping. The number of rich people exceeds that of Google and Facebook.
Wang Xing, a member of the US delegation, spoke highly of Zeng Yuqun and thought that he was a Zheng Fei-style figure. Wang Xing once sent a circle of friends to say that Zeng Yuqun's office was hung with a banner of "strong gambling". Zeng Yuqun bluntly said: "It is not enough to fight alone. It is physical work, and gambling is mental work. "
Zeng Yuqun, 1968, a native of Lankou Village, Ningde, Fujian. He is a farmer's child and is now a permanent resident of Hong Kong. 17 years old, admitted to the Department of Ship Engineering of Shanghai Jiaotong University. 1989 After graduation, he was assigned to a state-owned enterprise in Fujian. Three months later, he chose to leave his job, went to Dongguan and entered Shinco Magnetic Power Plant, a subsidiary of TDK, a famous Japanese electronic industry brand.
In Xinke Magnetic Power Plant, Zeng Yuqun worked for ten years and became the youngest engineering director. At the same time, it has also been appreciated by his immediate boss Liang Shaokang. 1999, Liang Shaokang found Zeng Yuqun and another old boss, Chen, and they jointly founded New Energy Technology (ATL). Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. came into being.
ATL seems to be a China company, but it is actually a Japanese holding company. As early as 2005, TDK wholly acquired the equity of ATL. TDK is a world-famous Japanese electronic component enterprise. Founded in 1935 by Dr. tokyo institute of technology Department of Chemistry, and has been engaged in electronic components business ever since. By 2020, the financial report will reach $65.438+0.26 billion, making it a giant in the electronic component industry.
During the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, the state encouraged demonstration cities to develop new energy public transport and promote new energy vehicles through policy support and financial subsidies. Three years later, the Catalogue for the Guidance of Foreign Investment Industries was issued, which further restricted the production of automobile power batteries by wholly foreign-owned enterprises.
Zeng Yuquan seized the opportunity of starting a second business, completely stripped off the dynamic part of ATL, and established Contemporary Anpu Technology Co., Ltd. New Energy Technology Co., Ltd. in his hometown of Ningde, Fujian. There is a C in front of ATL, which is later CATL.
Since then, Contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. has risen rapidly by getting involved in new energy vehicles. First, through Geely's early orders, it became a core supplier such as BMW and Yutong Bus, achieving rapid take-off; By 20 17, Contemporary Amp Technology Co., Ltd., which was established only six years ago, has surpassed Panasonic in sales of power batteries, becoming the leader in the power battery industry for the first time, and has always maintained a leading position.
202 1 Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Ltd. faces a more complicated situation, but Zeng Yuqun's ambition is also obvious. Zeng Yuqun often said: "If we are not the first in the world, we have no value of existence."
It belongs to the contemporary Ampere Technology Co., Ltd. with a trillion-dollar market value. The battery has been used by Zeng Yuqun for ten years. Will the car be used for another ten years after it is built?
