I Am the President of the University

"Principal Zhang, what you said is wrong. How can you use up your previous favor? It doesn't count!"

"Okay, okay, I can't talk to you, so that's it."

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Yue looked helpless.

The assistant on the side didn't even think about it. The only person in Ludao who could make the president of Ludao University helpless was the one from Guanghua University.

Zhang Yue sat in his seat and thought for a while, then waved to his assistant, "Xiao Huang, please contact Professor Yang Yong from the School of Chemistry. I want to know where he is now."

"Okay, Principal."

After a few minutes, Xiao Huang temporarily put down the phone.

"Principal, Professor Yang Yong is in the laboratory now."

"Okay, then you tell him that I will be there soon and ask him not to leave the laboratory." Zhang Yue said and stood up to leave. As for the assistant, he informed the other party.

Walking on the road, Zhang Yue couldn't help but sigh.

“No one should owe a debt of gratitude to anyone.”

Previously, I owed Guanghua a debt of gratitude because of the Strait Research Institute. This time, the other party contacted me and wanted to invite their team of Professor Yang Yong from the School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering of Luda University to join the research on lithium-air batteries.

This matter was naturally a good thing, and Zhang Yue had no reason to refuse.

It's just that he wanted to take this opportunity to deceive the other party and offset the previous debt of gratitude, but he failed.

I have no choice but to continue to owe money.

Twenty minutes later.

A certain laboratory.

Zhang Yue walked to the door and heard voices coming from inside.

"During the charge and discharge process of litmo2 and naxtmo2 materials, the insertion and detachment of li+/na+ will cause structural phase changes, leading to rapid decline in the capacity of the electrode materials."

"The main reasons causing the structural phase change of layered oxide cathode materials include the migration of tm ions, the anisotropic change of tm-o bonds during the tm/o ion redox reaction, and o-o, na(li)-o and tm- o electrostatic interaction, etc.”

"What we have to do now is how to alleviate the multiple phase transition problems of mn-based naxtmo2 materials during the charge and discharge process..."

Zhang Yue opened the door and the sounds inside suddenly stopped.

"Principal." The middle-aged man wearing glasses looked over, and then said to the researcher next to him, "You continue to repeat the experiment, I will be back later."

After saying that, he and Zhang Yue entered the office together.

Professor Yang Yong asked: "Principal, what's wrong with you?"

"There's something." Zhang Yue nodded, and then said bluntly, "Are you paying attention to the recent news in Guanghua?"

"Are you talking about the fact that lithium-air batteries have been approved by the [National Key Research and Development Program]?"

"Yes, and Guanghua invited our Ludao University, or to be precise, invited your team to join the research and development team of lithium-air batteries. What do you think?" Zhang Yue said while looking at the other party.

This Professor Yang Yong is no ordinary person.

He graduated with a doctorate in 1992 and received a special government allowance from the State Council in 2006.

He currently serves as the editor-in-chief of the internationally renowned battery magazine jpowersources (if=6.93), a board member of the International Battery Materials Association (iba), a member of the executive committee of the International Lithium Battery Conference (mlb), and a member of the academic committee of the State Key Laboratory of Special Chemical Power Sources. , and has long served as an expert in the national military battery expert group.

His resume is even richer, and he has led the team to undertake more than 40 scientific research projects including National 973, National Defense 973, key R\u0026D projects and key projects of the National Foundation. \u001d

Professor Yang Yong is a famous scientist in the field of energy in my country and a backbone scholar in the School of Chemistry, Ludao University.

"Lithium-air battery..." Yang Yong fell into deep thought.

Zhang Yue thought of what he had just seen in the laboratory and couldn't help but ask: "What stage of research is your research team at now?"

Professor Yang Yong replied casually: "The research team is stuck on the structure-activity relationship of cathode materials for layered oxides in sodium-ion batteries. "

"How does this sodium-ion battery compare with the lithium-air battery?" Zhang Yue also understood this very well, but was just a little curious.

Professor Yang Yong smiled after hearing the principal's question.

"Compared with the current mainstream ternary lithium batteries and lithium iron phosphate batteries, sodium-ion batteries still have many problems. As for lithium-air batteries...if both can be realized, sodium-ion batteries are far inferior to lithium-air batteries."

Zhang Yue understood that in terms of performance and prospects, sodium-ion batteries are not as good as the lithium-air battery made by Guanghua.

He stopped talking and waited for the other party's reply.

It didn't take long, just a minute or two, before Professor Yang Yong spoke.

"President Zhang, I agree to lead the team to join Guanghua University's lithium-air battery project."

Just as Zhang Yue was breathing a sigh of relief, Yang Yong's next words made his expression change.

"And I would like to apply to you, hoping to participate in the subsequent research and development work in the laboratory of Guanghua University."

"No, wouldn't it be enough to conduct research and development in our school laboratory?" Zhang Yue was confused, "Why go to their Guanghua?"

"Principal, this lithium-air battery is not large in size. It is not like a rocket that can be divided into several parts for research. Although it can also be jointly developed in different places, communication is inconvenient."

After saying that, Yang Yong paused and said comfortingly, "Guanghua is not far from our Luda University. Principal, don't worry, I will definitely not forget the teaching task."

Zhang Yue: "..."

Am I worried about teaching duties?

I'm really worried about you being abducted by Guanghua's shameless principal!

"Is it really necessary to go there?" Zhang Yue asked with a frown.

Yang Yong nodded, "It's best to go there, so the time efficiency will be faster, and it's not far anyway."

Zhang Yue is not ignorant of the general situation. He also knows how important this lithium-air battery technology is to the country, especially in the military industry.

He sighed and said with a constipated look on his face: "Okay, then I'll go back and reply to Guanghua's office now, and you guys should also prepare the aftermath procedures for the issue at hand."

After explaining the matter, Zhang Yue left.

He didn't want to stay in this sad place for a moment.

…

Xidu.

Institute of Applied Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Peng Zhangquan walked out of the director's office with a complicated look on his face.

Back in the laboratory, looking at the experimenters who were still busy, he opened his mouth and finally turned into a sigh.

Experiments and experiments, without funds, we cannot support subsequent experiments.

"Do you really want to join Guanghua University's project?" Peng Zhangquan's eyes were blank.

As the leader of this team, he is the backbone. Anyone can be confused, but not him.

At this time, a young man in a white coat walked over quickly.

"Teacher, this is the experiment we just did. Take a look at this set of data and see where we still need to adjust."

Peng Zhangquan continued the data with a smile on his face. This young man was one of his doctoral students. He was talented and also full of enthusiasm for scientific research.

"Okay, let me take a look."

"There is something that needs to be changed. I'll mark it for you. You can do another set of experiments to verify this..." As he spoke, he picked up the pen and made changes to the data.

"Okay teacher, I understand!"

Watching the other party's leaving figure, Peng Zhangquan's heart could not calm down for a long time.

He glanced at the other researchers in the laboratory a few more times.

His lips moved a few times.

He turned around and left without saying anything.

These people have such a passion for scientific research that even if their experiments fail many times, even if the projects they apply for have no results, it has not dampened their confidence.

Their purity and enthusiasm for scientific research cannot be destroyed because of his selfishness.

Walk back to the door of the director's office.

His fist knocked lightly on the wooden door.

It also struck a chord in his heart.
