The technological empire begins with polymer materials

Chapter 105 Assisting the military and new research projects! (2)



"Should I take you home first?" Cao Feiyu asked Gao Yuan in the car.

Gao Yuan shook his head, "There's no rush, let's go to the company first, and I'll go home in the evening."

"Okay." Cao Feiyu nodded and drove straight to the company. He also called the company's administrative department and convened a meeting of middle and high-level executives to prepare for a research and development meeting.

Soon after, the car drove into the company. Gao Yuan put his luggage in the car without taking it, ran to wash his face, and then came to the conference room on the first floor of the R\u0026D center.

Through the windows of the conference room, you can clearly see the huge construction site outside. Kunlun Company's new round of infrastructure construction has begun in full swing.

After witnessing the tremendous power of the Galaxy Eye, both Gao Yuan and Cao Feiyu felt that they should expand their workforce and strive to increase the company's size to around 50,000 people by this time next year.

Turning around from the window, Gao Yuan glanced at the whole place. He suddenly frowned and asked, "Why isn't Xu Qingzhou here?"

Li Changxing said hurriedly: "Xu Qingzhou led the team to CATL. There were some problems in the mass production of super solid-state batteries, and he went to work on technical problems."

"Is the situation going well?" Gao Yuan asked.

"It is said that it went very smoothly. It was a problem with the diaphragm winder. I called him last night and Xu Qingzhou said he would be back in two days." Li Changxing said.

Gao Yuan nodded slightly. This is what the strategic partnership plan is like. Kunlun Company is equivalent to the nanny of all partners. If there is a problem that cannot be solved below, Kunlun Company will be asked for help. Kunlun Company may send people to solve it itself, or contact other partners. .

All in all, strategic partners did not sit idly by and said that the original meaning of Plateau is to hope that all companies can unite to help each other more and less to add insult to injury.

"President Gao, the fourteen-day long vacation is over, and now everyone is full of energy."

"Yes, everyone is looking forward to new research and development tasks."

"What do we do next?"

Everyone asked in a hurry.

Gao Yuan smiled slightly, turned around and wrote the word photovoltaic on the blackboard.

After reading this, everyone expressed their confusion. The top ten photovoltaic companies in China are the top ten photovoltaic suppliers in the world. In the field of photovoltaic power generation, China has almost a complete monopoly.

"Photovoltaic? Are we going to study polysilicon materials next?"

"That's not true. The domestic polysilicon industry chain is already very mature and there is no need for us to get involved."

"That means we need to study photovoltaic power generation technology? Improve the solar energy conversion rate?"

Everyone started talking about it.

Gao Yuan explained with a smile: "When I wrote the word photovoltaic, it did not mean that we want to enter the photovoltaic industry, but that we will continue to tap the potential of super solid-state batteries and deliver ammunition to our brothers in the photovoltaic field."

"As we all know, the current cost of our super solid-state batteries is very high and the selling price is expensive. There is no problem in supporting the automobile industry, because automobiles are not cheap objects in the first place. But if they are used in the photovoltaic industry, we must reduce cost, redesigning an existence that has low energy density but is cheaper.”

"I know! Mr. Gao means to make energy storage batteries!" Someone said loudly, and everyone looked suddenly enlightened after hearing this.

Gao Yuan smiled slightly and said, "Yes, we just want to make energy storage batteries."

"Because whether it's solar or wind, these new energy sources are unstable."

"Solar energy can only generate electricity during the day when there is plenty of sunshine. It does not work well at night or when it is rainy."

"Wind energy only generates electricity when the wind blows. Once the wind stops, the electricity is gone."

"You may not know that within the power industry, many people refer to wind energy and photovoltaics as garbage power. The reason is that they are too unstable and many thermal power plants need to be built to adjust the peak of these two new energy sources."

"If the energy storage problem is not solved, new energy power generation will be a false proposition, because wind energy and photovoltaics alone are not enough to stabilize energy supply. Thermal power plants must be configured in a ratio of one to one, or even one to two, and thermal power plants There will definitely be pollution."

"In short, without energy storage batteries, there is no real new energy, and solving the problem of energy storage batteries depends on this."

After Gao Yuan said this, he opened his laptop and released the PPT he had prepared.

Huh~

A huge metal battery appeared on the screen. More than half of its volume was buried underground. The length of it that was only exposed to the ground reached the height of a five-story building. It was definitely a giant-level existence.

Gao Yuan pointed to this giant battery and said: "There are three major elements in energy storage batteries. The first is cost! The second is cost! The third is cost!"

"From a cost perspective, we have to stop using lithium metal as electrodes because lithium metal is just too expensive."

"So what do we use?"

"Metal zinc? Its price is not low either."

"Magnesium or sodium?"

Everyone has speculated, but these metals commonly used as electrodes, without exception, require high costs and do not meet the extremely low cost requirements of the plateau.

"We use air as the negative electrode, aluminum as the positive electrode, and carbon nanotubes as the solid electrolyte." Gao Yuan gave the answer directly.

"Air battery!?"

"I'll go and use air as the negative electrode...it's really low cost..."

"Aluminum, carbon, air, the cost is too low!"

"The most expensive thing is probably the stainless steel shell."

Everyone was excited and started discussing quickly.

If this pile of ultra-low-cost materials can be used to build a giant energy-storage air battery, it will definitely be an unprecedented miracle in the electrical field! Directly solve the biggest pain point of photovoltaic power generation!

Gao Yuan did not participate in the discussion because it was getting dark and he promised his parents to go home for dinner.

So he hurriedly left the meeting room and drove home. As for his plan, he let them use their brains to discuss it first. Don't be in a hurry and explain it to them in detail later.

"Dad! Mom! I brought the roast duck back. It was just baked this morning. Let's heat it up in the microwave."

Gao Yuan entered the house carrying two roast ducks, which Han Chang specially prepared for him. He also brought a large bag of lotus leaf cakes, sweet noodle sauce, and Zhangqiu scallions.

My mother took the two ducks and felt she couldn't finish them, so she heated half of them in the microwave and threw the rest in the refrigerator.

Not long after, the food was served. When she came back from the plateau, her mother specially made dumplings stuffed with mutton and radish. When she went to the Western Regions, she learned how to suppress the smell of mutton. Now her mother is also good at cooking mutton. Good job.

"This is sheep's trotters. It is also a craft learned from the Western Regions. The smell of mutton is suppressed with spices."

As her mother spoke, she gave Gao Yuan a large piece of sheep's hoof, and Gao Yuan ate it happily. His mouth was full of oil and he said he was very satisfied.

"Mom, I think you should go to Guangdong."

"Why?"

"To learn Cantonese cuisine, it's best if you travel all over the country, so that I can taste delicious food all over the world without leaving home." Gao Yuan said with a smile.

"You kid, you just know how to eat." Mother muttered, "Finding a girlfriend as soon as possible is the most serious thing. I see that you are so busy all day long that you are almost becoming a workaholic. A man must have a career." , but you also have your own life.”

What and what, how can you still connect with your girlfriend after eating a sheep's hoof?

Gao Yuan complained endlessly. Fortunately, his father changed the subject and talked about the battery. So Gao Yuan reported his work to his father one by one with a very humble attitude. No matter how prosperous the boss he was outside, when facing his father , dare not make any mistakes.

"By the way, Mom, I told BYD people that when new cars equipped with super batteries come off the production line, I will send you the best one." Gao Yuan swallowed the last dumpling and said to his mother with satisfaction.

The mother frowned and said, "I think the Wuling in your promotional video is pretty good. It's small and so cute. The traffic jam outside is too serious now. I still want a small car, as long as I can buy groceries." "

As Kunlun Company's hugely influential promotional video continues to spread, Wuling MINI-EV has become very popular. It has become so popular that you can't buy it even after paying and queuing up. Gao Yuan's mother seems to have fallen in love with that car, calling it cute. flexible.

"Okay, if it's just for transportation to buy groceries, a mini car is indeed the most suitable." Gao Yuan thought for a while and said.

After eating this meal, he chatted with his parents all night. Early the next morning, Gao Yuan returned to the company.

This July is destined to be uneventful. Kunlun Company is developing energy storage batteries, and many domestic car manufacturers will also launch their own super electric vehicles.

A car war is imminent!
