Wang Donglai can be said to be the person who knows the most about the impact of solid-state battery and semi-solid-state battery technology on the current market.
After all, in the next few years, domestic new energy vehicles will develop faster than anyone imagined.
It can be said that if solid-state batteries are really developed, then Wang Donglai will immediately become a Nobel Prize winner and an academician, and will also become the richest man in China with this technology. The most advantageous competition who.
In the new century, electricity is everywhere.
And batteries appear in every corner. It is no exaggeration to say that there must be a battery within three meters of a person.
Whether it’s mobile phone batteries, computer batteries, toys, or electrical appliances.
There are lithium iron phosphate batteries, ternary lithium batteries and so on.
In major laboratories and research institutes around the world, I don’t know how many people and teams are studying batteries.
We conduct research from various aspects such as battery structure and battery materials, and we want to develop batteries with excellent performance.
However, no one would have thought that semi-solid battery products have already appeared.
When he decided to hand over the semi-solid battery sample, Wang Donglai had already thought about the subsequent processing.
So, when he heard Zhou Jun ask, Wang Donglai took a deep look at Zhou Jun.
Although semi-solid-state batteries are not as influential as solid-state batteries, they are still quite advanced technologies, and when cooperation is involved, non-real people cannot have a say in this.
Whether Zhou Jun can be the plenipotentiary representative or not, being able to ask this question at this moment shows that Zhou Jun's status is extraordinary.
"Director Zhou, you must also know that I am both a scholar and the founder of Galaxy Technology. From an academic perspective, I am very pleased that this product has been favored and officially recognized."
"It's just that as a businessman, I am very aware of the commercial value of this product when it comes to cooperation."
"So, I have little experience in how to cooperate, and it is quite difficult."
< br>“Before, I just developed the lithium-sulfur battery, and I am currently adjusting the production line. It won’t be long before it can be launched on a large scale, and we have already reached agreements with mobile phone manufacturers and computer manufacturers at home and abroad.”
“Now, this semi-solid-state battery has been developed. For me, it is indeed more powerful. It’s difficult to price.”
“Director Zhou, you might as well tell us your conditions”
Wang Donglai did not directly state his conditions. After going around in circles, he still asked Zhou Jun to state the conditions first.
Although Zhou Jun does not understand the business model very well, he also knows that in business cooperation, the one who bids first will suffer the most.
However, as a soldier, Zhou Jun's character is still quite straightforward. After pondering for a while, he said: "Two options, one is to obtain patent authorization, and the other is to purchase products."
"In the first option, the authorization fee can be paid in a variety of ways The second option is to follow normal business practices. According to product requirements, you produce the products and we receive them. The price can be negotiated, but the quality must be guaranteed. "
Although Zhou Jun did not say directly. However, after hearing these two plans, Wang Donglai was quite satisfied.
It was his first time doing this kind of business, so he wasn't sure how to do it.
Now, after hearing Zhou Jun’s answer and feeling the sincerity, I was naturally relieved.
"Director Zhou, I actually have a plan here. Let's see what you think."
"I am not planning to keep this patent in my hands. I am planning to authorize it as before. Going out, the authorized target should be domestic BYD or CATL, or other companies.”
“We will not participate in manufacturing for the time being, but we will provide guidance and supervision.”
"So, if you are interested, you can license the patent or purchase the product!"
Wang Donglai thought of this plan when he was preparing to hand over the semi-solid battery sample.
It’s not that he doesn’t know that he can get more profits if he produces semi-solid batteries by himself.
However, there are priorities.
Semiconductors are more important than batteries.
Human energy is limited, and Galaxy Technology currently needs to expand aggressively, which has resulted in a large gap in the capital chain. Therefore, it is most appropriate to license the technology based on various reasons.
Wang Donglai’s authorization this time will not be as simple as before.
Compared with lithium iron phosphate batteries or ternary lithium batteries on the market, the performance of semi-solid-state batteries far exceeds and is extremely excellent.
Even the previous lithium-sulfur batteries are far from comparable.
So, in this way, the patent licensing plan proposed by Wang Donglai this time is naturally extremely harsh.
Companies that want to obtain patent authorization must show more sincerity.
After listening to Wang Donglai's plan, Zhou Jun did not rush to make a decision, but said: "Professor Wang, I need to report this."
"In addition, semi-solid battery products, I hope Professor Wang can temporarily keep confidentiality, such as papers and the like. It is about to be published, but Professor Wang can rest assured that the leadership will not forget Professor Wang’s contribution.”
“In fact, with Professor Wang’s academic achievements and contributions, he deserves to be an academician!”
What Zhou Jun said was not explicit, he just mentioned it briefly.
However, Wang Donglai understood it clearly.
Nodding, Wang Donglai said: "Don't worry, Director Zhou, I am not preparing to publish the paper immediately, and the technology will not be publicized immediately."
Zhou Jun quickly explained: "Wang Professor, you misunderstood me. What I meant was that I hope Professor Wang can temporarily stop publishing semi-solid state electronics within half a year. Chi’s paper, but you can announce that your company has conquered semi-solid battery technology, which is not a conflict.”
“During this period, your company can fully engage in commercial cooperation, so don’t worry.”
"Finally, my personal suggestion is that Professor Wang should go abroad less often, personal safety is the most important thing!"
Hearing Zhou Jun's last sincere words, Wang Donglai moved his eyes and said: "Thank you, Director Zhou, for reminding me, I understand!"
"Professor Wang, I really didn't expect that it has only been so long that you really Created a semi-solid battery.”
“To be honest, when I received your news a few days ago, my first reaction was that I was dreaming, not at all. I thought that the super battery project would be completed so quickly.”
“Even after seeing the sample, I finally accepted this fact, and then I saw the test results, which shocked me even more.”
"Professor Wang, you may not be able to imagine how much of a shock this sample caused when it appeared in front of us!"
Zhou Jun said with a hint of shock in his tone.
“Director Zhou received the award, I just did a little bit of what I should do.”
“As Director Zhou said before, the super battery project has attracted many researchers across the country. Research institutes and laboratories are doing it, and semi-solid-state batteries are not a revolutionary breakthrough. Many laboratories can also produce such products.”
“It is even possible to push the energy density to more than 10,000Wh/kg at any cost, so my breakthrough in this area is not that big. "Wang Donglai is very calm, he is not a layman.
Semi-solid and solid-state batteries seem to be just one step apart. In fact, the gap between the two is huge.
If ternary lithium batteries are described as monkeys, solid-state batteries are fully evolved modern humans, and semi-solid batteries are in the middle. Using the most vivid comparison, they are not cavemen or Homo sapiens.
It is more appropriate to describe it as a gorilla. This shows how far the gap between semi-solid-state batteries and solid-state batteries is.
Even in top laboratories, it is possible to produce products with an energy density of more than 10,000Wh/kg, which can ensure that there is no possibility of spontaneous combustion in daily human use, plus two thousand or even tens of thousands of complete cycles. Long life, coupled with high-speed fast charging, plus the fact that it can be directly broken, sorted, recycled and reused in an environmentally friendly manner.
At present, with the technical level of the world's top laboratories, this can be achieved.
No one will say that such a battery is not advanced enough. It has almost no shortcomings. It can be said to be a god-like next-generation secondary power battery.
However, there is only one problem for consumers with such batteries, and that is they are expensive!
To produce such a battery requires not only an extremely harsh production environment, but constant temperature and humidity, dust-free, etc. are just the basics. The production process is extremely cumbersome and complicated, and every link requires a high degree of standard. to serve as support.
Finally, under these strict conditions, the yield rate was appallingly low.
The cost is extremely high, coupled with a series of strict standards, and finally coupled with an outrageously low yield rate, the price will naturally go up.
In addition, there is a big problem.
That is, if you want to produce such a battery, you need to completely rebuild a new production line.
A production line can cost anywhere from a few hundred million to several billion.
It costs a lot to fly to the sky!
Because of this, Wang Donglai did not think about producing semi-solid batteries by himself and making more profits.
Licensing the patent for semi-solid-state batteries is a great move.
Companies such as BYD and CTAL have mature workers and management experience, and have suitable factories. They only need to adjust the production line to start production.
The speed is much faster than Galaxy Technology starting from scratch.
After Zhou Jun actually took charge of this matter, he also learned about the detailed information of semi-solid batteries and solid-state batteries.
So, when I heard Wang Donglai say this, I immediately smiled and said, "Professor Wang, you are too polite."
"For the semi-solid-state battery developed by Professor Wang, the experts I know all gave very high evaluations, whether in terms of cost control, technology, or safety. It is extremely excellent.”
“During the test, many researchers swore that this sample contained a vinyl sulfate-based wetting agent and was not safe. After the test results came out, these researchers were immediately speechless. "
"Everyone couldn't believe it. This product actually didn't add wetting agent, and they said it was impossible."
"Professor Wang, you didn't see it at that time. To describe the scene in Internet terms, that It’s just that the Taoist heart has collapsed and is about to go crazy.”
“Speaking of this, Professor Wang will be very busy if he meets these scholars and professors in the future. They don’t know how much they want to communicate with you. Ichiban.”
"This time I came to the meeting, I was reporting like crazy and wanted to get involved."
"Professor Wang, you are also a scholar, I believe you should be able to understand their thoughts."
Zhou Jun When I say these things, I do so in a relaxed and joking manner.
However, after Wang Donglai heard it, his heart moved.
He benefited greatly from the last ICIAM conference.
If I could do it again, even if it was not as good as the last time, I would probably gain a lot.
Thinking about it, Wang Donglai said: "Director Zhou, the performance of semi-solid-state batteries is extremely superior. I think there should be many research projects that have been temporarily shelved due to insufficient battery performance, right?"
“I wonder if these projects will be restarted and continue the previous research?”
When Wang Donglai talked about this, high-tech products such as exoskeletons flashed in his mind.
Zhou Jun was also stunned, not expecting Wang Donglai to talk about this matter.
His expression suddenly became serious, and his whole demeanor changed in an instant.
However, after just a moment, Zhou Jun relaxed and said, "Professor Wang, please forgive me, these matters are still confidential and I cannot disclose them at will!"
"But!"
"Professor Wang means I understand that I will report truthfully to the leader after I return. At that time, if the leader gives instructions, I will contact Professor Wang.”
“I think, with Professor Wang’s scientific research ability, The leader should not refuse.”
Wang Donglai was not surprised by this result.
In the end, Director Zhou is just a director.
Even if you are with the big leader and have a high level, you still don’t have the authority to make direct decisions on this kind of thing.
The most important thing in the country is to sacrifice and fight!
Scientific research on advanced weapons or weapons equipment will be the most confidential work no matter which country it is in.
Even if Wang Donglai wants to participate, he still needs to go through the process.
"Then I'm looking forward to the good news from Director Zhou!"
"Only when the country is prosperous can the people live and work in peace and contentment. Only when the motherland is strong can we have greater space for development and achieve greater success. High growth ceiling, so if I have the opportunity to contribute to the country, I will be happy.”
“Personal achievements must be actively integrated into the development of the times, so that personal growth is in sync with the development of the times and the development of the country. Only in this way can individual talents have the opportunity to achieve great careers and achieve outstanding results. "Achievements."
Wang Donglai said with a serious tone and a firm expression.
"Professor Wang is indeed worthy of being able to make such achievements. In my opinion, this awareness is much stronger than that of many people."
"Yes, a strong country and a strong nation, That is the real confidence, and this is true all over the world!”
“Professor Wang, it’s almost time, I should go back and report the situation.”
As he said that, Director Zhou took a look. Watch, that’s what Wang Donglai said.
“Okay.”
Wang Donglai stood up and saw Zhou Jun off.
After sending Zhou Jun away, Wang Donglai breathed out softly, looked into the distance, and murmured softly: "It's time for the world to change!" (End of Chapter)
