From black technology to super engineering

Time passed minute by minute, but the meeting room did not enter the theme for a long time, and was still "chatting".

Of course, even if these people are chatting, they must pay attention to a basic method, and they can't escape the changes that the ongoing two-dimensional battery experiment will bring to the human world. For example, market applications, such as triggering a revolution in other two-dimensional materials, and so on.

The reason for this... is mainly because everyone is waiting for the results of the experiment.

In the face of such a momentous moment, everyone has enough patience.

General Qin glanced at the silently turning clock on the wall, and then looked at the blue light rising into the sky outside the window.

The two-dimensionalization has already started, and the blue light is the light of the super-accelerator.

After looking around, General Qin coughed lightly, and looked at Chief Engineer Tang: "Old Tang, there is nothing to do on the left and right, why don't you bring us the design of the Asian ship to satisfy our hunger?"

Chief Engineer Tang was talking about the future pure electric spaceship. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "Asia? Then you have to ask Academician Chen."

So everyone turned their eyes to Academician Chen - he was in charge of the design of the main gun.

"Ask me? Then you have to ask Academician Duan." Academician Chen smiled and pointed to Academician Duan sitting beside him: "Without the old Duan's energy storage system, no matter how well-designed the main gun is, it will be useless."

"Don't look at me, look at President Ye."

"..." Ye Ming coughed after being looked at abruptly by everyone.

——This is the reason why so many people come here today.

Since the main cannon was found in the ruins of the space city in the blue star, the country quickly deciphered the "advanced technology" from "five thousand years ago", and completed the localized main cannon system based on the current human energy storage system .

The latest Song-class warships——If divided according to the functions of ships from the Ocean Age, the "Song" class should belong to the battlecruiser. The previous Qin, Han, Tang, etc. were at most considered guided missile cruisers, or guided missile destroyers, or "conventional missiles".

Of course, since the launch environment was considered in the design of rice grains from the very beginning, all spacecraft equipped with missile silos, including the scientific research and reconnaissance spacecraft such as Wenxing, Xunxing, and Xingxing, as well as the Yueyue, Wenxing, etc. Moon and Mochizuki, the first batch of pure solar system spacecraft equipped with missile pods, can seamlessly replace rice grains. As long as there is a need, it will immediately become an armed spacecraft with "sublight speed missiles"-this is why the military is actually somewhat dissatisfied with taking up the precious time of the super accelerator this time.

After all, underfire syndrome is deeply ingrained!

But no matter how strong rice grains are, there is still the most fatal shortcoming, that is, its acceleration takes time, and the cost is huge, so it is only suitable for "long-distance" combat.

If encountering close combat—such as the "pirates" encountered by the Canglan Star this time, or in an emergency situation, it is obviously much more convenient to have a cannon with instant strike capability.

"Song" is the first batch of human space battleships whose design considers the installation of laser main guns.

But as we all know, the activation of the main gun needs a lot of energy, and it is directly proportional to the mass and volume of the hull. Therefore, as the "Song" born out of the design of Qin, Han and Tang, the power of the installed main gun is actually limited. .

The real high-power laser main gun will be designed on a brand-new capital ship-in the words of the navy in the past, it is a real capital ship "battleship", the kind that relies entirely on the output of the main gun.

But this time, the naming rules of battleships are different.

There is no way, too high-level executives jump every day to say that there are too many Chinese elements, what about the human beings who agreed to ask the community?

Therefore, the first "space battleship" to be equipped with ultra-high-power laser weapons was temporarily named Asia.

"Actually, there's nothing to see, it's just a huge cannon ship." Ye Ming smiled helplessly, and after looking at the time himself, he tapped a few times on the touch screen and projected a 3D model of the design drawing on the conference table.

This is a truly colossal ship, with a length of more than five hundred meters. There are two-meter-caliber "cannon" ports on the front, rear, left, and right sides of the hull.

In the design of the ship's weapon system, the laser excitation core adopts a universal design to ensure that the main gun can be launched from different locations.

From this point of view, it is much more advanced in concept than the main gun of the Kela tribe, which only fires from the muzzle, and it is more in line with the design of a battleship that can destroy the world with one shot while standing still.

"The original design mass was 80,000 tons, equipped with six fusion engines, two at the front and two at the rear, and the two movable nozzles in the middle can provide half-load acceleration. But this is based on the previous design of the energy storage system. Now..." Ye Ming He pursed his lips, and the light in his eyes danced.

Not only Ye Ming, General Qin also leaned forward after seeing the model, with incomparable satisfaction in his eyes.

This Asia "Battleship" is very in line with men's vision of a giant ship with cannons.

Academician Duan took over the words: "If the two-dimensional supercapacitor is successful, then the space and quality of the two fusion engines can be freed up, and the operable space will be even greater."

"The original overall hull design can be kept unchanged, these two engines can be directly used as charging engines, or connected to the whole ship's defense system, and the main gun can also be designed with greater power!" Chief Engineer Tang added: "Old Duan You are right, anyway, there is a lot of room for manipulation.”

While everyone was chatting, the room suddenly went dark for a moment.

The next moment, all sounds disappeared at the same time, and everyone turned their heads to look out the window at the same time.

The blue light of the superaccelerator has disappeared, which means... the experiment is over.

Ye Ming slowly retracted his gaze, and then looked at his wrist.

Time passed by second by second.

After a while, the long-lost shock finally came, and he pressed the connect button without any hesitation.

Then, Sheng Fei laughed loudly from the entire conference room.

"Mr. Ye, it seems to be done. Immediately transport it down to charge, and wait for me for two minutes."

The corner of Ye Ming's mouth twitched slightly, and the benefit was filled: "Okay, I'll wait for you!"

Two minutes later, when there was a burst of screams and laughter, the meeting room began to applaud.

Ye Ming waited until the applause ended and looked at the crowd with a smile.

"The meeting is starting, let's discuss how big a caliber can be worthy of our energy storage system, which is enough for humans all over the world to use for a week!"

...

An hour later, Zhou Xiangnan and Sheng Fei appeared in the meeting room.

Although all the people here are their seniors and bosses, after completing this experiment, they undoubtedly have the qualifications to sit at the same conference table with everyone present and discuss on an equal footing.

"Sorry, I'm sorry, I rushed the phone, I'm late."

As soon as they entered the door, the two kept apologizing, and at the same time put an iron box the size of a brick on the conference table.

The bosses present all left their seats with a swipe, and gathered around the two of them.

"What technology is used to charge? Wireless or wired?"

"It can involve wireless, but if it is wireless, the energy loss outside the module is a bit high, the heat is relatively large, and the time is tight. There is no two-dimensionalization of the wireless module, so we use the cable directly." Zhou Xiangnan made room for Academician Duan, He explained with a smile: "The high-voltage fast charging used now takes about five hours to fully charge."

"Twenty kilowatt-hours of electricity for five hours is enough for civilian use. Even for military use, it seems to be enough..." General Qin looked over with burning eyes, and then looked at Ye Ming: "Mr. Ye, isn't it?"

Ye Ming coughed lightly. He nodded, and neither did he.

Indeed, if the two-dimensional lithium battery can pass the test, according to this energy storage efficiency, it is also possible to put it on the battleship-although it is not as high as the high current of the super capacitor, but the quantity can make up for everything!

However, saying this in front of Academician Duan is a bit...

Zhou Xiangnan observed the situation, and immediately smiled: "The upper limit of the lithium battery's current is still very obvious, and this is more suitable for long-term discharge of thin water."

"Well, indeed." Ye Ming nodded and smiled: "Come on, you guys analyze your experience, and we will design follow-up experiments based on your experience."

...

Three days later, all the preparatory work for the two-dimensional supercapacitor experiment was ready and entered the formal experiment stage.

At the same time, the ban on the experiment report was officially lifted and spread all over the world through major media.

The moment the news was released, the whole world fell into a brief silence, and then... went into complete madness.

The first to bear the brunt are those lithium battery manufacturers that have benefited greatly from controllable nuclear fusion in the past ten years, especially the power battery manufacturers. One minute after the news came out, the stock price began to plummet all the way, and then the entire The stock prices of the lithium battery industry and even the energy storage industry have been abruptly lowered.

The second is those industries related to energy storage batteries, such as several companies engaged in robotics and electric vehicles.

Because several companies that are more powerful in power batteries are also engaged in robots and electric vehicles... Therefore, their stock prices have also staged a big U-shaped curve like ordinary people who are confused.

Of course, the real victims are those traditional energy and industries that rely on traditional energy, such as oil, gasoline, diesel and related internal combustion engine companies.

These industries have been shrinking since humans achieved controllable nuclear fusion. The reason why they can survive now is nothing more than the inertia of the market and technology, as well as the rapid expansion of humans in the space field, which makes humans mainly use Helium III in The engines of the spacecraft and the electric tigers on the moon base were lost, and it was too late to "reduce dimensionality" to them...

And the energy density of gasoline, after all, is unmatched by the previous energy storage batteries - that is a gap of 50 times ahead!

But this time, for the first time, the energy storage battery achieved an overtake in energy density.

Then gasoline and diesel and the internal combustion engine driven by it... basically come to an end.

Investors have gradually calmed down, and countless social media platforms have finally begun to correctly realize the true significance of the realization of two-dimensional batteries by humans this time.

Optimists believe that this will announce that mankind has entered a new era of energy. In the future, what mankind will worry about is not excessive carbon dioxide emissions, but low carbon dioxide emissions. In addition, robots, electric vehicles, and drones, which were previously limited by energy sources, will be completely unshackled, leading to a major explosion in productivity and application.

However, some people who are more cautious and even pessimistic believe that the success of the experiment does not mean the success of commercialization. If human beings want to completely enter the era of pure electricity, they still have to look at the results of commercialization and the cost—if compared with the current The cost of lithium batteries is too high, which is obviously not conducive to promotion and cannot enter the homes of ordinary people.

These people also analyzed this experiment in detail, saying that this is the use of two-dimensional technology, and two-dimensional technology requires the use of super accelerators-the cost of that thing is really not cheap!

Anyway, there are different opinions on the entire social media, and it has been discussed for a long time.

In the end, everyone reached a consensus, that is, let the bullets fly for a while.

But... the bullet didn't fly for long.

A week later, the Community Energy Center issued another announcement, stating that it will establish a global energy center, and at the same time promote the establishment of Jizhi Technology, Z Petroleum, X Petrochemical, X Fu Petroleum, X La, X Di...etc. More than 30 world-renowned energy and manufacturing giants jointly invest in a new energy group.

Galaxy Energy Group.

At the same time, the first phase of the project of Galaxy Energy Group will build three super accelerators in an uninhabited Gobi area on the earth.

As soon as this news came out, the whole world once again plunged into boiling water!

Build three super accelerators! More than 30 energy and manufacturing companies around the world! And it still starts with the Milky Way...

Obviously, this is to directly industrialize the two-dimensional lithium battery.

...

Moon, Guanghan Base.

In Ye Ming's office, Zhou Xuchen sat across from him with some frustration.

These days, Zhou Xuchen's energies were all tied up on the detection spacecraft where the Canglan Star encountered "pirates". Ye Ming couldn't stand it, so he called him to his side directly.

"What's the situation now?" Ye Ming knew that his student was concerned about him, so he couldn't bear to say more about him: "What did Wuda say? Do you want me to contact you?"

"Wuda Dalisi said that they have sent warships there."

Ye Ming hummed lightly.

These days, he has been busy with the supercapacitor and the improved design of the Asia. He only knows that after the human side sends the rice grains, the other side will carry the rice grains to set off, but he didn't pay attention to when they left.

"Then can I still hear from Hailin now? Have you figured out what civilization those pirates are from?"

"I can't receive it, and I haven't figured it out yet." Zhou Xuchen shook his head in frustration: "But I retrieved and analyzed all the gravitational wave signals of the SVC-29 galaxy and its surrounding galaxies in the past six months, and found something unusual."

Zhou Xuchen said and looked at Ye Ming: "These signal sources were sent by Hailin before. I think there should be a rapidly rising civilization on the side of the SVC-28 wormhole."

"Well... just like us."
