For the gift, start research and development of graphene batteries

Chapter 51 The Legendary Academician?

Elder Wang can't remember how many times this happened.

In foreign countries, it is obviously a relatively cheap material, but when Xia Guo goes to buy it, he will sell it to you several times or ten times, and he has an attitude of whether you like it or not.

How many times have I gone abroad to inspect equipment, because the equipment is advanced, the technicians don't understand it, and if they want to understand it, they ask the other party to ask for clarification, and they are left in the cold by others.

This is Xia Guo's top technician, but he has to be made things difficult by a technician on the other side. Who can understand the grievances?

For materials imported from abroad, the agreed delivery date is one month, but the other party can delay without reason without giving any explanation, and you have no way to sanction it.

It's expensive, and it's nothing to spend more money to solve it; when a person is wronged, just bear with it and it's over.

These technicians from Xia Kingdom can bear it.

But there are many materials or technologies that you cannot buy even if you want to.

This kind of grievance can only be experienced by veteran technicians like Wang Mingyang.

Behind the years of peace and prosperity, there are countless people moving forward with heavy burdens.

"You wait in Jianglin, I will rush to Jianglin from Kyoto in the afternoon."

Wang Mingyang hung up the phone without waiting for Jiang Ming to speak.

It can be seen that Wang Mingyang attaches great importance to the new battery mentioned by Jiang Ming, and he wants to talk about it in person.

Of course, Wang Mingyang also wanted to keep it a secret. After all, it was a bit inappropriate to talk about such an important matter over the phone.

Jiang Ming is happy with the situation. With the old man Wang Mingyang around, the carbon-based battery is a thing of the past.

Jiang Ming had always wanted to make carbon-based batteries before, but considering the resources needed and the time it would take, Jiang Ming could only temporarily put this matter aside.

After all, existing graphene batteries can already meet contemporary needs.

Now, with the help of Mr. Wang, it is a bit of an opportunity to start this matter again.

Mr. Wang Mingyang came, dressed in formal attire, and seemed to take it very seriously.

"I said, old man, come as soon as you come, what else do you bring?"

Seeing that Mr. Wang was still carrying a box with high-end packaging, it looked like a gift box at first glance, Jiang Ming said politely.

As he spoke, Jiang Ming took it over.

Huh, not too light.

Jiang Ming put it on the table and opened it.

Seeing Jiang Ming's actions, Wang Mingyang was stunned, and quickly said:
"do not."

Snapped!
Jiang Ming had already opened the box, and he saw that it contained a set of very sophisticated instruments, not the gift he imagined.

Seeing what was in the box, Jiang Ming was also embarrassed. This thing was obviously not for him.

When Wang Mingyang saw Jiang Ming's expression, he felt happy in his heart. He thought to himself, "You can do it so quickly!"

"Old Wang, what is this?"

Jiang Ming asked.

"You'll find out later."

While talking, Mr. Wang turned on this smart instrument, powered it on, and connected it to the Internet.

"Is this an Internet phone?"

Jiang Ming guessed after seeing the various interfaces and buttons on the device.

"Yes."

Good guy, Jiang Ming felt emotional for a while, Ganqing is just a telephone, and it is so complicated.

Exquisite packaging, exquisite equipment, mysterious, so complicated, is it necessary?
"Old Wang, what is this?"

"After connecting to the Internet, someone wants to connect remotely to discuss the battery you mentioned."

Wang Mingyang fiddled with it while talking.

It can be seen that Wang Mingyang is not very familiar with this set of equipment, and it took a long time to figure it out.

Jiang Ming frowned when he saw Mr. Wang's actions. How could it be so complicated? It was just a phone call.

Moreover, there are so many softwares available on the Internet, and Jiang Ming also has a computer here, so he can connect directly with the software, and he also needs to use special equipment?

"Although this set of equipment is not big, it is precise and expensive. This set costs more than 50 yuan."

Wang Mingyang explained.

Jiang Ming:.
"Do you all use such expensive equipment, which can be solved by a mobile phone software?"

Jiang Ming still couldn't help expressing his doubts.

"What do you know, kid? This is not an ordinary device. This is a device made by the above for confidential calls."

Mr. Wang complained about Jiang Ming's ignorance.

"Is this necessary? I think it's okay now."

"Ha ha."

"It's different. Do you think it's safe to make a phone call? Do you think no one will pay attention to browsing a webpage? These are all based on the fact that you have no value. There are many people staring at you, so you have to guard against it."

Wang Laoxiao educated Jiang Ming.

"Ok."

Jiang Ming felt that he really didn't understand the routine.

"So, who's that on the phone?"

Jiang Ming asked.

"Long Zhiwei."

The three words came out of Mr. Jiang's mouth, and Jiang Ming lost his composure for an instant.

"Hiss, it's Academician Long."

Long Zhiwei, as the dean of the Xia Science Academy, is an academician in Xia Guo, and an authoritative figure in the fields of physics and chemistry.

Academician Long is the originator of Xia Guo's power transmission and transformation field. In the field of energy, he is a pioneer.

The Yawan Nuclear Power Plant it led was the earliest nuclear power plant in Xia Kingdom, which laid the foundation for the development of nuclear power plants.

How can such an academician come to discuss the matter of lithium batteries?

"This, Mr. Wang, is this true? How could Academician Long get involved in this matter?"

Jiang Ming still couldn't help asking his own question.

"The issue of lithium batteries has already involved competition among major countries, and it involves a trillion-dollar industry. The higher authorities attach great importance to it."

"No matter what, people's livelihood must be guaranteed. Generally speaking, we submit the report and wait for Academician Long's review. But when he heard that you are the developer of graphene batteries, Academician Long made an impromptu decision to cooperate with Academician Long. You talk."

Mr. Wang added.

This is a little nervous!
This is an academician, not a professor in a university.

You must know that academicians, as craftsmen of the country, are like Ding Haishenzhen in related industries.His casual sentence will affect the policies of the entire Xia Kingdom.

Random policy adjustments will affect the livelihood of millions of people.

Facing such a character, how could Jiang Ming not be nervous.

"Academician Long is a very talented person. He is very willing to support the younger generation who have technical ability."

Seeing that Jiang Ming was a little nervous, Wang Mingyang comforted him.

"By the way, I forgot to ask you, the performance of your so-called carbon-based battery will not be worse than that of the previous graphene battery, right?"

Wang Mingyang asked.

"The performance of the battery will only get better and better. How can it get worse? According to my preliminary assumption, its performance is more than five times that of graphene batteries."

Jiang Ming calculated for a while, and then gave a conservative number.

In fact, if it can be designed well, there is no problem reaching ten times.

But this can only be achieved after the process materials are very mature.

According to the current technology, the upper limit of the performance of the first-generation products is about six times that of the sky.

Of course, now with the support of Mr. Wang and the attention of Academician Long, Jiang Ming believes that the performance of the product will be much higher.

"Uh, five times?"

Hearing Jiang Ming's words, Teacher Wang frowned, as if he had some thoughts.

"Old Wang, five times is only the lowest. After the technology matures, it is no problem to increase it."

Jiang Ming thought that Mr. Wang was dissatisfied, so he quickly explained.

"Cough cough!"

Hearing Jiang Ming's words, Elder Wang, who was still thinking, couldn't help coughing twice.

"What are you thinking, kid? Five times is not enough. I mean, is five times too radical? Do you have the confidence to complete it?"

Wang Mingyang reminded.

You know, the two of them will be facing academicians later, if they can't finish their boasting in front of academicians, they will be in big trouble.

"Old Wang, don't worry about this, five times is the most conservative."

Jiang Ming said confidently.

Seeing Jiang Ming's demeanor, Wang Mingyang couldn't help but sigh with emotion, saying that the waves behind the Yangtze River beat the waves ahead, the younger generation is gradually growing up, and the entire Xia Kingdom is hopeful.

Since there was no problem with the initial communication, Elder Wang didn't hesitate anymore, and dialed a number using the equipment he brought.

"Hey, Mr. Long, it's me, Wang Mingyang, I'm in Jianglin."

Wang Lao's words were full of energy, and he reported.

"Mingyang, thank you for your hard work. How is the new battery? Is there any problem?"

When Long Zhiwei's words came, his voice was very loud, without the senile, frail voice of the elderly at all.

"I have initially communicated with Jiang Ming. There is not much problem with the current plan. Its performance is expected to reach five times that of graphene batteries. Of course, many details need to be organized for research and development and verification. It will take a certain amount of time."

Wang Mingyang made a summary report.

"Oh, five times the performance, come on, let's talk about it in detail."

Hearing Wang Mingyang say that the performance of the new battery is so much higher than that of the graphene battery, Long Zhiwei became interested and said.

"Here, Jiang Ming, introduce yourself to Academician Long."

Wang Mingyang motioned to Jiang Ming.

"Mr. Long, it's like this. I call this battery a carbon-based battery."

Hearing Wang Mingyang's words, Jiang Ming didn't dare to neglect, and said quickly.

It's just that Jiang Ming wanted to say hello to Academician Long, but he couldn't help but introduce carbon-based batteries directly.

"In fact, this battery is also a lithium-ion battery, but the lithium carbonate material used is only about one percent of the traditional lithium-ion battery. If it can be successfully developed, the dependence on lithium carbonate will be mostly weakened. .”

"Carbon-based batteries can be regarded as a major improvement of graphene batteries. In traditional lithium batteries, the positive pole is lithium carbonate, the negative pole is graphite, plus electrolyte, diaphragm and other materials, which are common components."

"Carbon-based batteries use graphene to improve the positive and negative electrode materials, making the microstructure more tens of thousands of times larger than traditional materials. It makes the insertion and extraction of lithium ions smoother. "

"Of course, due to the higher energy density and larger discharge rate of carbon-based batteries, the traditional design concept may not be applicable, and other components need to be re-designed and verified. Needless to say, the positive and negative electrode materials are the key to overcome The electrolyte is also a key point and needs to be improved a lot. Other separators, pole pieces, etc. also need to be verified one by one."

Jiang Ming briefly described the information about carbon-based batteries.

Hearing Jiang Ming's plan, Long Lao seemed to be thinking, and did not speak for a long time. After waiting for a while, he opened his mouth and said:

"Is the material involved in it, can our country of Xia be completely independent?"

"Except for lithium carbonate, everything else is fine. They are some commonly used materials, but they just need special process modification!"

Jiang Ming said affirmatively.

"Lithium carbonate material, don't worry, Xiaguo can still afford to supply [-]% of it."

Wang Mingyang added.

"Okay. Mingyang, you are in charge of this matter, coordinate the resources of all parties, and make sure this matter is implemented as soon as possible."

Long Zhiwei arranged for Wang Mingyang.

"You're good young man, keep up the good work! I'll log off first, you guys can handle the details."

Long Zhiwei praised Jiang Ming, and then went offline.

Seeing that the other party had hung up the phone, Wang Mingyang let out a long sigh of relief.

Jiang Ming looked a little speechless, it's nothing, why Wang Mingyang is more nervous than himself.

Jiang Ming originally thought there was something else to say, but he didn't expect it to be just a simple report.

In addition, Academician Long is more kind than he imagined, not as dignified and dignified as in the legend, let alone the situation where he dare not breathe.

Like a kind elder, he is full of concern for his juniors.

"Don't be so playful, kid, this mission is heavy!"

Seeing Jiang Ming's relaxed appearance, Wang Mingyang was furious.

The heart explained that it was Academician Long who came to listen to Jiang Ming's report on technical solutions to solve the problems in the lithium battery industry. Such a serious topic should be very solemn. Why can't it be solemn today?
Moreover, the plan was proposed by Jiang Ming, and it stands to reason that Jiang Ming should be the most nervous, but why was he the one who was nervous in the end?

"With Mr. Wang here, I have confidence."

Jiang Ming said firmly.

All right, I have to say that Jiang Ming's flattery was very loud, Teacher Wang was very happy.

"In this way, you first make a preliminary plan, and we will discuss it tomorrow. What resources are needed, and list them in advance. You have also seen that this matter is very important to the entire battery industry of Xiaguo, and should not be underestimated!"

Then Wang Mingyang said seriously.

Indeed, the projects that the academicians pay attention to, the pressure given is not so heavy.

Jiang Ming's ease is only based on the atmosphere of harmonious dialogue between the two parties. Jiang Ming still attaches great importance to the matters explained by Academician Long.

If he can do well this time, Jiang Ming can be regarded as an academician.

In the follow-up, when you need resources for any project, it will be much simpler.
