Scholar's Cultivation System Panel

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Xu Yun. Thank you for your approval. I am Iwan, the editor-in-chief of Nature Magazine." Ivan, who came all the way from the rest area of ​​the solid-state battery laboratory, finally greeted Xu Yun and said hello. After clarifying his identity, he immediately introduced his colleagues: "This is Assistant Julie of our editorial board and Professor Tonako."

Xu Yun originally wondered why he did not receive the publication notification from Nature after the paper was accepted.

It was only after receiving the call that I realized that the editorial board of Nature Magazine had come over on my own initiative.

Speaking of the academic value of solid-state batteries, it is quite normal to attract the editor-in-chief. After all, the larger the project results, the more cautious it is.

However, there was an acquaintance accompanying him, which surprised him.

I still remember that when he said at the Abel Prize presentation ceremony that he planned to apply theoretical mathematics to material chemistry research, Professor Tonako publicly expressed in an interview that he was not very optimistic about his decision.

He also watched related videos.

But as the saying goes, a visitor is a guest, and the etiquette and demeanor that a host should have must be maintained.

No matter what kind of ideas the other party responds to, the superficial skills still have to be done properly.

When his thoughts came to this point, a smile quickly appeared on Xu Yun's face, and he responded to the people in front of him.

"Welcome Editor-in-Chief Ivan to visit Jingzhou City, everyone please take a seat."

Be very enthusiastic.

After everyone sat down on the sofa next to them, the reception staff from the company brought several cups of brewed tea, and then immediately turned around and left the room, leaving Xu Yun and the others to talk in detail.

"I didn't expect Mr. Xu Yun to look younger than the rumors. Many people in our editorial department are your fans."

Zhu Li boldly watched Xu Yun take the lead in provoking the topic. Although she is Asian, she has the straightforwardness of overseas.

Perhaps because of the similar hair color and image, Xu Yun has a good impression of this lady.

The hand who was just about to pick up the teacup in front of him stopped halfway and said with a smile: "It is my honor to be liked by so many people."

After the words fell, he picked up the cup again, and when it was level with his chest, he did not forget to remind the other party.

"I don't know if Ms. Zhu likes tea, but you can try the top-quality Dahongpao prepared by our company."

"Thanks."

Julie didn't refuse, thanked her, took the cup in front of her mouth and took a sip.

Ivan, with a full face of brown beard, was obviously not used to drinking tea, so he got down to business.

"We are here mainly to conduct an interview with you, and it will be the cover of the next issue of the magazine."

Xu Yun was overjoyed when he heard this sentence, he knew very well the difference between simply being accepted and being a cover.

There is really no reason to refuse this matter.

"sure."

Without much hesitation, he agreed wholeheartedly.

"That's great. This solid-state battery achievement in your laboratory is sure to cause a global sensation." Ivan immediately smiled when he heard Xu Yun's answer, complimented him from the bottom of his heart, and then continued. : "In addition, Professor Tonako is also very impressed with your research. This time, I came here specially to communicate with you, Mr. Xu Yun."

Tonako has remained silent since he sat on the sofa, feeling embarrassed when he thought of his remarks in the previous interview.

So that I couldn't find a chance to talk to him for a long time.

Now seeing that Ivan took the initiative to turn the topic to himself, he first cast a grateful look, then stood up and expressed his apology to Xu Yun.

"I'm so sorry."

"Some time ago I caused you trouble because of my wrong remarks, and now I understand what a real genius is."

"Your research on chemical materials has surpassed mine."

What he said was not nonsense. Xu Yun was able to develop a new solid electrolyte material for solid-state batteries, and successfully reduced the production cost to almost the same level as lithium batteries. The value of his research is not comparable to those of his.

So there is no shame in admitting that others are better than you.

On the contrary, the remarks during the interview are even more embarrassing.

If he could be given another chance to choose, then he would never question Xu Yun anyway.

After listening to Tonako's words, Xu Yun didn't know what to say.

I really didn't expect that the other party came all this way to apologize.

In any case, the other party is also an authoritative senior expert in the field of chemical materials.

The results of the research also promote the development of materials.

It is indeed not something other professors can do to admit their mistakes in such a low profile.

To be honest, it was normal for Tonako to have the kind of speculation at the beginning. After all, he switched from mathematics to chemical materials halfway, and put it on normal people, not to mention achieving achievements in a short period of time. I am afraid that they are still in the stage of learning and understanding.

But Xu Yun belongs to the alternative among geniuses, and there is no way to use common sense to deduce it.

What's more, when he received the Abel Prize, he had already obtained solid-state battery technology.

Completely confident.

For the older generation of researchers like Tonako, Xu Yun still admires and respects them.

Since he has achieved this level, he will definitely not put on airs.

"Professor Tonako is serious. The field of chemical materials is not limited to solid-state battery materials."

"There are many places I still want to ask you for advice."

Quickly got up and asked Tonako to sit down again, and said something that was true.

Both sides talked to this extent, so naturally they tacitly stopped mentioning the previous interview.

Next, Ivan couldn't wait, thinking to finish the interview as soon as possible so as not to delay the publication of the next issue of the magazine.

Under such circumstances, Xu Yun was more cooperative, even if he called the other two people from this project over.

When Ivan and Tonako learned about such a large research result, and there were only three people in charge of the project, their expressions froze and they couldn't believe what they saw.

"This is simply a miracle. Only three people have completely solved the all-solid-state battery technology."

"It's incredible."

In the face of praise from the editor-in-chief of Nature Magazine and industry authorities, Wan Xiaoyong and Lu Yi were embarrassed to take credit for themselves.

Hastily opened his mouth to tell the truth.

"We are only serving as the scientific research assistant of Mr. Xu, and the entire project and research results are basically completed by Mr. Xu."

As soon as these words came out, the other people present were stunned, and they couldn't help but gasp.

At this time, Xu Yun did not pretend to be modest, and reminded Iwan with a smile on his face.

"Editor Ivan, we can start the interview."

"good."

"OK."

Ivan, who was awakened by this sentence, realized it belatedly.

After answering Xu Yun twice in a row, he hurriedly turned his gaze to Julie next to him and gave instructions.

"Hurry up and set up the equipment."

"It's the editor in chief."

Julie, who was accompanying her as an assistant, didn't dare to hesitate when she heard the words, and acted quickly.

Because naturally it belongs to a periodical magazine, the interview is presented in the form of a manuscript.

Basically, it is to ask about the mental journey in the project research, and does not involve specific technical data.

There are only three people in the entire project team: Xu Yun, Lu Yi, and Wan Xiaoyong.

It was easy to interview with few people, and it only took about an hour for the interview to end.

During the period, Xu Yun also specially showed the battery samples in the laboratory as the cover.

After the interview, Ivan just wanted to publish it in the journal as soon as possible, so he hurried back without staying in Jingzhou City for a long time.

On the contrary, Tonako stayed for a few more days, discussing the content knowledge in material chemistry with Xu Yun.

Time passed quickly, and after finishing the interview with Nature Magazine, Xu Yun also quickly completed the application materials for the selection of outstanding young people. According to the previous selection process, the selection meeting will end next month and the list will be announced in July.

In late May, the latest issue of Nature Magazine is finally online.

Its cover is exactly the battery sample produced by Deepin Technology's solid-state battery laboratory.

The magazine not only announced that the low-cost all-solid-state battery has been conquered, but also gave high praise to authoritative professors such as Tonako.

Previously, Deepin Technology had published scientific research results and data, but now that Nature Magazine serves as an authoritative certification, relevant news quickly spread across the entire network and became boiling.

Undoubtedly, the biggest reaction to this news was the Internet users. They never expected that Professor Tonako's remarks would change so quickly.

In the past two months, he had vowed that Xu Yun would not be able to achieve much in chemical materials, but in a blink of an eye he gave a high evaluation and voluntarily admitted his wrong guess.

But this also makes everyone understand that it is true that Xu Yun has developed low-cost all-solid-state battery technology.

Soon, heated discussions began on platforms such as YouTube and Twitter.

Seeing that the battery market is about to be monopolized by Xu Yun's deep technology, I can't help worrying about the future.

"Has even Professor Tonako changed his mind, the other party has really mastered the all-solid-state battery technology?"

"What does our battery company do? After so many years of research, it can't compare with others for a few months."

"It seems that the battery industry is going to change."

"Is this kind of talent too powerful? The opponent is probably an alien."

"my God."

"Companies in our country have long researched batteries with higher energy density, and they cannot monopolize the global battery market."

...

When Deepin Technology made an announcement earlier, because the situation was not clear yet, it did not cause the official media to stop for publicity and reporting.

This is part of the reason why some netizens questioned this.

But this time it was completely different.

Nature Magazine not only released photos of real samples of Deepin’s all-solid-state batteries.

Also featured on the cover.

Coupled with the recognition of many authoritative experts in this field in the world, it shows that Deepin Technology has indeed mastered the all-solid-state battery technology.

Faced with this kind of good news worth celebrating together, it is natural that major official media have reported it one after another.

And also deliberately broadcast in the evening news.

Relevant circumstances indicate that the prelude to a battery revolution has been officially opened.

At first, many netizens thought that this research was in the theoretical stage.

It's too early for commercial use.

As a result, I didn't expect that the battery had already been produced, and thinking that I would soon be able to use solid-state batteries, my emotions immediately became high.

They even started domestic battery companies one after another, asking them to quickly find Deepin Technology for cooperation.

In the past, the energy density of lithium batteries has not been able to make a significant breakthrough. In addition to new energy vehicles, mobile phone manufacturers can only find ways to develop fast charging to increase the charging speed of mobile phones.

But if it is replaced with an all-solid-state battery, there will be a huge change.

First of all, the energy density of solid-state batteries is three times that of lithium batteries, and the smaller size can not only improve the battery life of mobile phones, but also reduce the weight of mobile phones to a certain extent.

In a way, it is equivalent to promoting the development of mobile phones, which will indeed make people look forward to it.

It is not an exaggeration to say that under the hot searches on the Internet, at this time, if you go into a penguin colony that is usually active, you can see a group of friends chatting about this matter.

There are basically two words in the words.

fiery.

If anyone doesn't know about this, it's definitely because they just came out of the deep mountains and old forests and their information is behind.

"Going straight to the cover of Nature Magazine, Xu Shen really never does anything he's not sure about."

"I really didn't expect that this kind of solid-state battery has been made. From the photos, it is thin and light. I heard that it can be folded at will and is not afraid of cold environments. It is very safe."

"I have already bought a house with the money first, and I will buy a car when the solid-state battery new energy vehicle is released. Brothers, am I doing the right thing?"

"I can't wait for a moment now, let's go into production quickly."

"Just now I went around the Internet and found that someone said that Xu Shen is an alien. I was about to be laughed to death."

"I am looking forward to the other two laboratories of Xushen Deepin Technology. Maybe there will be great results by then."

"I don't know which battery company can reach a cooperation with Deepin Technology. With King Ning's size, it should be no problem, right?"

...

The Ningde era mentioned by netizens is also filled with a relatively tense atmosphere.

All departments knew there was going to be an uphill battle ahead.

Winning the battle will undoubtedly bring the company to a higher level.

But if you lose, you will never recover.

During this period of time, they basically confirmed the authenticity of Deepin Technology's attack on all-solid-state batteries through various means.

Now that the research results have appeared on the cover of Nature magazine, this is even more solid.

At this time, we must seize the opportunity and reach a cooperation with Deepin Technology as soon as possible.

"Director."

"This is the latest issue of Nature, and our judgment is correct."

Ningde Times Technology Building, Li Ping, the chief engineer of battery technology in the chairman's office, put a magazine on the table, not hiding the excitement on his face.

As a battery technology researcher, I am naturally happy to see such a big technological breakthrough made by my peers.

Chairman Zeng Kequn, who was sitting on the boss chair, raised his eyes to look at the magazines on the table without flipping through them.

Then he raised his eyes and responded in a deep voice.

"I already know the situation, and now the top priority is to establish contact with Deepin Technology as soon as possible."

"In any case, the technology must be licensed."

"We have tried to contact Deepin Technology, but we have not received a response so far." Li Ping answered truthfully to the chairman's order, and added after reporting the situation: "However, other companies should be in the same situation as us. "

"This technology is undoubtedly very mature, and whoever gets it can start mass production immediately."

"With such a high value, Deepin Technology will not choose a partner easily."

Speaking of this, Li Ping deliberately paused for a few seconds to give Zeng Kequn time to think about the relevant issues.

Following the silence in the office, Zeng Kequn stared at Li Ping and asked a more critical question after an unknown amount of time passed.

"If we have the opportunity to cooperate with each other, what kind of chips do you think we can offer to win the project?"

Faced with this question, Li Ping's face suddenly became serious, and after careful consideration, he gave a rough range.

"This technology has a different meaning, and it must be much higher than the technology licensing fee in the industry."

"I'm afraid it will cost 30% of the battery price, and does not require exclusive technology authorization."

The sound reached Zeng Kequn's ears, and he couldn't help frowning slightly.

The selling price of the battery is closely related to the cost price, and it must not be arbitrarily priced to disrupt the operation of the industry.

If 30% of the selling price of the battery is given to Deepin Technology as the technical authorization fee, then their profit after removing the production cost of the battery must be limited.

What's more, exclusive authorization is not required.

However, the market for solid-state batteries will definitely far exceed that of traditional lithium batteries.

So in general, there are only advantages and no disadvantages for them, not to mention that the right to speak is not with them at all.

If the technical authorization of Deepin Technology is not obtained, it will not be a question of how much profit the company can make at that time, and whether the company can guarantee market share is a big question.

Various thoughts flashed through his mind quickly, and finally he seemed to have finally made a decision.

His eyes became firmer.

"First find a way to get in touch with Mr. Xu of Deepin Technology. I have to meet him no matter what."

"I'll do it now." Li Ping nodded and replied.

And when Ningde Times started to act, companies such as Panasonic, LG New Energy, Samsung, etc. could no longer sit still.

They have dispatched high-level personnel to Jingzhou City one after another, and it can be said that they are all determined to obtain the authorization of this technology.

The main reason is that they really do not have confidence that their own battery technology can reach the level of Deepin Technology.

In this case, there is no other way but to use other people's technology, otherwise they can only watch their market share being taken away.

Xu Yun is also paying attention to the changes in the industry, and he also wants to finalize the technology authorization as soon as possible.

After all, he is not very interested in business matters, and technology authorization is mainly to ensure sufficient funding for the company's several laboratories.

What's more, the automation module robot project is about to start, and he really doesn't want to delay the company for too long.

"Boss Xu."

"The company has received a lot of information from domestic and overseas battery companies, and they all want to meet with you."

In the office of the president of Longfor Science and Technology Park Company, Meng Songyan reported to Xu Yun the latest developments of other companies.

Xu Yun was not surprised to hear this result. The matter of all-solid-state battery technology has become so popular all over the world. If those battery companies do not take action, it would be better to close down and leave the market to others.

It's just that he didn't have so much time to meet them one by one, so he thought for a moment and made arrangements directly.

"Choose a time to invite them to come together, and say that the partner of cooperation will be determined at that time."
