My science and technology museum

Xu Lei did not expect that Future Technology's acquisition of Tianyu Battery would cause such a big reaction at home and abroad.

However, he also didn't pay much attention to everyone's discussions.

After solving the problem of the battery production base, there is also the problem of electrolyte raw materials waiting for him to deal with.

As recognized by the industry.

The performance of solid-state batteries is only 40% higher than that of lithium batteries, but the cost and price have increased several times.

There is simply no way to carry out large-scale commercial use.

What Xu Lei has to do is to use the technical knowledge transferred to his mind from the metal solid-state battery exhibition booth in the museum to create electrolyte raw materials with stronger performance and lower cost.

Only in this way can we truly shake the status of traditional lithium batteries and innovate power batteries.

For this reason, while the production line of the Xingyuan Battery Base was being fully renovated and upgraded, Xu Lei basically spent time in the chemistry laboratory of the research center, leading Wu Ziliang, Fu Zhengjun and others to study special materials.

"Academician Xu."

"We have conducted several experiments in the past two days."

"But the results are not ideal."

"Battery batteries produced according to the current mainstream solid-state battery production technology in the industry have many problems."

"In addition to needing to be used at higher temperatures, the battery life is only slightly longer than traditional lithium batteries, and there is no way to mass produce them."

In the past few days, Fu Zhengjun has clearly felt the technical difficulty of solid-state batteries. Even as a top talent in the industry, he gradually feels that he is unable to do what he wants.

And in his opinion, the solid-state batteries they produced are no different from industrial waste.

Not even qualified to compare with battery management.

After all, not to mention the high cost, the temperature environment alone can make people collapse.

Although traditional lithium batteries will become less durable in low-temperature environments, they are still within the acceptable range of users.

But if solid-state batteries want to be used normally, they need to raise their temperature first.

It's simply as much trouble as you need.

think carefully.

If solid-state batteries are used as power batteries for new energy vehicles, in addition to installing a battery heating device, you will also need to wait for a while each time you start the vehicle.

No one would accept giving yourself so much trouble for that little bit of added cruising range.

Not to mention the high cost price.

It can only be said that solid-state batteries were proposed a long time ago and are still in the experimental stage, which is not unreasonable.

As Fu Zhengjun's words fell, several other people started talking.

They all opened their mouths to introduce Xu Lei.

"If we want to ensure the high energy density of solid-state batteries, the price cannot come down at all in terms of raw material costs."

“The issue of battery cycle life also needs to be addressed.”

"Maybe we can try a new route."

Xu Lei listened to everyone's words and could tell that they had been tortured by solid-state batteries in the past two days.

But this situation will soon be gone forever.

Because Xu Lei wants to start developing special raw materials for electrolytes by himself.

After his thoughts stopped here, he immediately and confidently told several people present: "The solid-state batteries in the outside world are still relatively childish, and some have only reached the semi-solid level. In order to solve the problems you have raised, we need to study more suitable batteries for use as batteries." Raw materials for electrolytes.”

After hearing what Xu Lei said, Wu Ziliang's heart suddenly moved, no matter how others reacted.

He quickly asked tentatively.

"Mr. Xu."

"You also do research on chemical materials technology?"

Wu Ziliang knew that Xu Lei had developed an intelligent assistant and successfully led the project team to conquer the top domestic photolithography machine technology.

The level of knowledge possessed is relatively diversified.

But under normal circumstances, being able to achieve such great achievements in the software and hardware industries at the same time is considered a top genius, and it is impossible to spare time to learn knowledge in other fields.

But Xu Lei's words just now don't seem like what a layman would say.

Especially the tone of his voice showed strong confidence.

As if he could develop this special raw material.

For this reason, Wu Ziliang was even more curious and asked this question specifically to prove the terrible guess in his mind.

After all, if Xu Lei really has deep knowledge in the field of chemical materials, then he can no longer be described as a simple genius, he is simply a real monster.

at the same time.

Fu Zhengjun and others also stared at Xu Lei, waiting for this answer.

Xu Lei thought that there was nothing wrong with his orientation, but being stared at by several scientists with such eager eyes made him feel very strange.

So he didn't delay too much and replied casually: "I just take the time to understand a little bit. You should learn as you go."

"Huh~"

Wu Zichai, Fu Zhengjun and others were relieved when they heard this answer.

It turns out that I just learned a little bit.

This time I can finally remove the burden from my heart.

The main thing is that if they really follow the research project of a monster who crushes them in terms of age and knowledge, the pressure they have to endure is unimaginable, which is equivalent to mocking them all the time for so many years.

However, they naturally did not express this idea, and they did not forget to compliment Xu Lei.

"Mr. Xu usually has to deal with so much business in the company, but he still finds time to learn new knowledge. It really makes us feel ashamed!"

"We should learn more from Mr. Xu."

"No wonder Dean Yang often mentioned Academician Xu when I was at the Chinese Academy of Sciences. It turns out there is this reason."

Seeing that he was so praised by several industry leaders, Xu Lei would inevitably feel a little embarrassed no matter how thick-skinned he was, so he had no choice but to interrupt them and force the topic back to business.

"It's still early today. I have a new idea here that you can study."

Knowing that Xu Lei's research on chemical materials was only scratching the surface, Wu Ziliang and Fu Zhengjun were naturally very interested when they heard that he had new ideas.

They all have the mentality of seniors giving guidance to juniors.

"That's fine."

"It just so happens that I also want to experiment with new materials, which may be able to improve the battery's operating temperature problem."

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's get started quickly."

…

…

Xu Lei's words were not wrong.

His technical knowledge about solid-state batteries was indeed transferred into his mind by spending time in the Science and Technology Museum, but his time did not pass by in the museum.

With Xu Lei joining the team, research on solid-state battery electrolyte raw materials has naturally progressed by leaps and bounds.

But as one problem after another was solved by Xu Lei, the mentality of Wu Ziliang, Fu Zhengjun and other members of the project research team also changed from calm at the beginning to shock.

Even in the end, only numbness remained.

I feel like there are several voices repeating in my head.

Why am I here?

What am I doing?

No one thought that they should be the core members of the solid-state battery project research team. As a result, most of the research and development work was completed by Xu Lei.

They were directly reduced to assistants.

However, everyone was shocked, but they couldn't help but feel excited.

Because after more than half a month of continuous research and experiments, they finally synthesized the most suitable raw material to serve as an electrolyte.

Monday, December 7, 2020.

Although it was the company's weekly meeting, Xu Lei did not attend.

Instead, he still stayed in the chemistry laboratory of the research center.

After continuous experiments on raw materials, they used special polymer materials to act as solid-state batteries as electrolytes. After various tests, they finally obtained preliminary results.

"Old Wu, how are the data?"

In the laboratory, Fu Zhengjun suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked Wu Ziliang about the data he had just obtained with a slightly trembling voice.

But Wu Ziliang did not answer immediately. Instead, he walked straight to Xu Lei under the slightly puzzled gaze of everyone, and then leaned down suddenly.

"I apologize for questioning you earlier."

"Mr. Xu."

"The metal all-solid-state battery you proposed does have the ability to replace traditional lithium batteries."

"And you said you just took time to learn about the field of chemical materials. I think it was just to take care of our feelings."

At this moment, Wu Ziliang's heart was already filled with turmoil.

The moment he saw the test data, he understood Xu Lei's good intentions.

Is it possible that the various properties of electrolyte raw materials can be improved so much in just over half a month? Is it possible that it is the result of taking the time to understand and study?

This is obviously impossible.

There is only one explanation.

That's why Xu Lei deliberately humbled himself in order to take care of their feelings and worry that they would be devastated.

But when Wu Ziliang thought about how he really had the mentality of guiding his juniors at the beginning, he felt his face flush with shame and he wanted to find a hole to crawl in right away.

And this is enough to see Xu Lei's painstaking efforts.

At the same time, I feel extremely lucky that I chose to return to China to join Future Technology.

As for Xu Lei at this time, he was also surprised when Wu Ziliang said this. Although he didn't know what the other party was thinking, he still defended himself seriously.

"Well... I really took the time to learn more about it. Maybe you misunderstood."

However, this made Fu Zhengjun, who was next to him, completely lose his patience. He immediately stepped forward and snatched the data report from Wu Ziliang's hand, and immediately looked at it carefully.

"Hiss~"

As the data and information in the report jumped into his eyes, Fu Zhengjun suddenly took a breath of cold air and just wanted to curse.

"What the hell is this called something?"

As a professional in this field, he knows very well what the above data report represents. This is not just about whether it can replace traditional lithium batteries, but it will truly change the pattern of the entire battery industry.

Bring a new change and promote the development of science and technology.

Of course, he would never say these words. After calming down a little, he shouted to everyone: "Our research has achieved great success. The direction of metal all-solid-state batteries is not wrong. It can be commercialized and It can be promoted on a large scale.”
