Black technology starts from the steel suit

Chapter 212 Chapter 212 Awards Dinner (Tomorrow Change)

I have to say that the Germans are pragmatic, and their high efficiency and quality are still the same as before. Not long after they were about to award the medal to Wang Feng, the email informing him to accept the award had already been sent. Of course, there must be a formal invitation letter, but due to the relatively long distance Far, so still on the way.

Open the email and it will display as follows:
Dear Professor Wang, hello!
We are representatives of the German Chemical Society. We are sending you this email to congratulate you on your outstanding achievements in the field of electrochemistry. Your theory on electrochemical interfaces has opened the door to new chemistry for us. .

We know that such a medal has no way to highlight your achievements in the field of chemistry, but unfortunately, this is the highest honor we can offer at present, and I hope you will not dislike it.

If it is convenient for you, we hope to be able to hold the awards ceremony this Saturday.If you can spare time then, I hope you can reply us in time, we are here waiting for your arrival.

german chemical society
The content in the email is very short and concise.After thinking about his recent itinerary, Wang Feng felt that he should still have time, so he began to draft a reply.

Respect, wait, Professor Meath, hello!

It is a great honor that you can award me the Hoffman Medal this time, which makes me feel very honored.Although I have achieved some insignificant achievements in the field of electrochemistry, this is not a reason for my complacency.As for the theory you said about the electrochemical interface, it opens the door to new chemistry. I can only say that although this door has been pushed open, we still need more outstanding scholars to perfect this theory...so I I look forward to being able to communicate with you all.

So for this Saturday, I'll be there in time.

Beijing Lithium Battery Research Institute, Feng Wang

Gently click the send button, and the email will be sent.Someone gave him an award, of course he couldn't wait more.After all, it is a very famous medal in the world, and the awarding institution is an academic institution with a long history like the German Chemical Industry Association.

Although such awards are not well-known in the society, they are far inferior to the Nobel Prize and internationally renowned awards such as the Fields Medal, but the academic world is far away from the society. The Hoffman Medal is in the Chemistry is still very well known.

And there is also a bonus, don’t give it up in vain.

In addition, you can also build a good relationship with the German Chemical Industry Association. After all, Germany is also a country with a long history and a very good academic background. It is definitely beneficial to have a good relationship with their academic circles.

After Wang Fang told Jin Lili and the others the news, they didn't say anything, but went directly to make arrangements.After all, this is their own effort to win glory for the country. If they don't support it, they can't justify it.

On Friday morning, the plane departed from Beijing's international airport and flew directly to Berlin, Germany.

……

Once again set foot on the land of Berlin, Wang Feng was full of emotions.In a short period of time, I set foot on the land here twice. I have to say that maybe I have a lot of fate with this place.

The lecture was held at Humboldt University in Berlin, a university with a long history and a profound foundation in chemical engineering that has trained generations of outstanding scientists in Germany.

Today's Wang Feng is wearing a neat suit and a black tie, making him extremely stable.After all, he is still relatively young. In such a more formal occasion, dressing too young is actually not a good option.

But judging from his immature face and his appearance that raised the average score of the scene, everyone still felt the fact that this young man was too young.Although there are regional differences in matters such as aesthetics, people's pursuit of beauty is actually the same.At the very least, after seeing Wang Feng, the ladies at the scene still couldn't help but glance at each other secretly, imagining what would happen to this young scientist.

Although I don't want to admit it, this is indeed a tradition in European culture.Everyone really respects natural scientists from the bottom of their hearts. Many princesses and female nobles are proud of being able to recruit top scientists as soldiers.

Sorry, it's getting too far.

Although he said he had the experience of receiving awards, it was his first time to receive medals from others in such a strange country, and the audience were all blond and blue-eyed foreigners.

nervous?There are indeed some.

Are you scared?Not at all.

He felt that at this moment he should be proud.Just like countless predecessors, when they stand on such a podium as a mortal, they must be very proud.

At the same time, they must also hope that their compatriots can see that it is not for showing off, but to tell everyone that what others can do, we can do the same. We are not less than others, or one less arm.

We are never stupider than others. What we lack is probably just some conditions.

On the big screen behind Wang Feng, his achievements during this period are being listed at this moment. At this moment, the president of the German Chemical Society is reading a speech on the awarding platform.

The first is the improved lithium battery that has the greatest impact on people. It is because of this lithium battery that people are completely freed from power phobia and charging treasures. No matter how you use it or waste it, the power is enough for you for a day. Use it.

This is the place that has the greatest impact on people. Of course, I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing.After all, to some extent, people's dependence on mobile phones has increased.But considering the reality, it is never the technology that is wrong, but the people who use it.

It's just that although the mobile phone industry is the most impressive for improved lithium batteries, the new energy industry has the greatest real impact.After all, compared to the demand of the new energy industry, the demand of the mobile phone industry is a younger brother.

At any time, the automobile industry is a pillar industry and the backbone of a country's economy, but mobile phones... no matter how you look at it, it doesn't make sense.

Compared with mobile phones, the improved lithium battery is real, and it has completely changed the new energy industry, making it no longer so weak and powerless in the face of traditional energy vehicles.

Although it is not as convenient and quick as a fuel car, and it is durable in off-road, but for most people, as long as they can travel in the city, it is enough. It is amazing, and then on the high speed, 800 The cruising range of ~1000km is enough no matter what.

Of course, the use of improved rational batteries is not limited to this. High-performance lithium batteries cannot be ignored at any time to support military technology, but considering their own historical problems, this point will not be shown here.

In addition to high-performance lithium batteries, high-performance capacitors also have a great impact on people.One of the most intuitive impacts is the power industry, which is really not black, after all, the electromagnetic gun has not really been launched yet.

Cheap supercapacitors have a huge impact on people's lives. After all, compared to the use of nuclear energy to produce radioactive and toxic substances, and the use of fossil fuels such as coal to produce carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases, such as wind energy and tidal energy. Kind of clean energy will be much cleaner.

Whether it is wind energy, moisture, or solar energy, clean energy has a very significant feature, that is, it is not easy to save and integrate into the grid for regulation.Because their power generation is very irregular, if you want to adjust them systematically, you need to invest a lot of energy.

But supercapacitors perfectly solve this problem. They only need to store electrical energy and then release it to get a stable power supply.What lithium battery, why not?
Very simple, one is the cost issue, the other is the service life issue.

Of course, as for the issue of military use it caused, this is independent of human will, so we can only not discuss it here.

In addition to these two, there is another achievement that cannot be ignored, that is, thermoelectric power generation materials that can be put into commercial use.Given that fossil energy and nuclear fuel are limited, how to improve their utilization efficiency has become one of the most important topics for people to study.

It’s not that I haven’t thought about using temperature difference to generate electricity to improve its utilization efficiency, but it is indeed a difficult problem.It was not until later that Wang Feng made breakthrough progress in this field.

What is the concept of improving energy efficiency by 20%?

At present, people's effective utilization rate of thermal energy is only 30% to 40%. If 20% of energy can be extracted from waste heat, that is to say, the utilization efficiency of heating energy can be increased by 10 to 12 percentage points. It can almost increase the current power generation by 1/3 or 1/4.

Don’t take the world as an example, just take our country as an example. We currently use more than 20 billion tons of coal to generate electricity. If we can increase the power generation by 1/3 or 1/4, it means that hundreds of millions can be saved. tons of coal, this is definitely not a small number.

Of course, in addition to this, it can be used in any place where boiling water is used to generate electricity.Especially for our development of geothermal energy, it is a technology that cannot be ignored.

In addition to these three items, the remaining item is the one that our academics value most: the theoretical basis of electrochemical interfaces.

At this moment, the door to a new world of chemistry has opened, and in the field of computational chemistry, we have more theoretical basis.With his help, we will make greater progress, open up more territories for human development and career, and computational chemistry will play an increasingly important role in the chemical community.

Optimistically speaking, maybe we will be able to design the compounds we need in the future.Instead of trying one by one like this, this will save us a lot of valuable manpower and material resources.

He will become a very important cornerstone of our theoretical chemistry, and he will support a brand-new building of chemical theory.

In recognition of his outstanding achievements in chemistry and his contribution to the development of human beings, we decided to award the Hoffmann Medal to this extremely creative young man. He is our Wang Feng. Professor Wang.

"Let's give him a big round of applause on this solemn and beautiful occasion, don't be shy, lad. We German girls are so passionate."

Wang Feng: Thank you, please come and tell me next time when the female relatives I bring are not around.

But this is a moment worth remembering, and there was thunderous applause. I believe she will not care about this little detail.

The president solemnly handed the certificate to Wang Feng's hand, and he personally put the medal on Wang Feng's hand.At this point, they are still very generous and use pure gold.

Of course, the bonus is indeed a bit small, only 1 euros, not even enough gas money for his round trip.But it can be regarded as less polite and more affectionate, just like when people go to the Nobel Prize, they never go for the $100 million.

"Thank you very much for your recognition of me." Wang Feng enthusiastically held the other party's hand.

"This is what we should do. We just hope that outstanding results should not be silenced, and outstanding scientists should receive more attention."

The award ceremony is very simple, but in addition to the award ceremony, the next dance is also the highlight.After all, Europeans who live a relaxed life, they have enough time to fully enjoy life.

At this point, the German Chemical Society has never been stingy with the marks in its hands.They booked an entire floor of the ballroom, and also ordered a buffet at the nearby Four Seasons Hotel.

Of course, the hotel itself also provides meeting rooms for such dance parties.But they disliked that the other party's ballroom was not professional enough and the decoration was not luxurious enough, so they chose the ballroom of their own university. Of course, these belonged to the conservatory of music, and even if they were used by people from the school, they had to pay a fee.

Of course, considering the weight of the other party in their own school, this fee is only a symbolic fee.

Considering that there has been no such major theoretical breakthrough in the theoretical chemistry community for a very long time, this dance was held very grandly.Basically all members of the society were present. In addition, they also sent invitations to other well-known figures in the academic world.

This ball is not only to celebrate the birth of a Hoffman Medal winner, but also to provide a platform for communication. After all, colleagues in science and engineering are relatively nerdy, and everyone knows this very well.Therefore, when there is any major event, it must be notified in place, otherwise, this group of closed colleagues will probably be able to stay in their own research room forever.

At the ball, Wang Feng was naturally not stingy with his warm embrace. After all, if a ball is full of men, it must be meaningless.It just so happens that the high-class ladies in Germany are also very keen on such social occasions. They seem to be very interested in these science and engineering nerds who are easy to blush, and they are very willing to tease them.
