After hearing this, Luo Kai clapped his hands and said in agreement: "Mr. Wu is right. If we want to occupy a favorable position in the future naval competition, we must strengthen technological research and development and innovation.
I hope that through this technical exchange, we can find the best partners to jointly promote the progress and development of naval technology."
As Luo Kai finished speaking, warm applause erupted in the conference room.
Everyone is well aware of the importance and urgency of this technical exchange. They look forward to jointly promoting the progress and development of future naval technology through in-depth cooperation and exchanges.
In the following time, experts from both sides conducted in-depth discussions and exchanges on battery power electronic control technology, intelligent auxiliary combat systems and other related technical issues.
The conference room was filled with a strong academic atmosphere and enthusiastic discussions. Everyone actively participated in it and contributed their wisdom and strength to the future construction of the navy.
As the discussion deepened, experts from both sides gradually found a common language, and the technical problems gradually revealed the dawn of solutions in the collision of ideas.
With his profound professional knowledge and rich practical experience, Wu Hao provided many valuable suggestions and ideas to Wen Changhong's team.
Wen Changhong's team, with their deep understanding of submarine technology and innovative thinking, brought new inspiration to Wu Hao's team.
Time passed unconsciously, and the sky outside the window was already dyed with a faint twilight.
However, the enthusiasm in the conference room has not diminished at all. Everyone seems to have forgotten the existence of time and is completely immersed in this feast of technical exchanges.
Outside the window, the afterglow of the setting sun filled the sky, dyeing the entire sea area golden.
But this did not affect the experts in the conference room. They were still discussing enthusiastically and trying to find solutions to every technical problem.
"The energy density of your company's new generation of super solid-state batteries is indeed very high. It far exceeds the energy density of the super counter batteries you currently sell on the market, and it is many times higher than your latest lithium batteries. It can be said to be fully electric.
The best source of electricity for powered submarines.”
Speaking of this, Wen Changhong glanced at Wu Hao, and then continued: "However, this new generation of super solid-state battery is not without its shortcomings. First of all, it is expensive, far more than half the price of lithium batteries.
Secondly, this kind of super solid-state battery is integrated when it is manufactured, so it cannot be repaired and can only be replaced, which will inevitably bring high use and maintenance costs.
Third, this new generation of super solid-state batteries may generate higher temperatures during high-voltage fast charging, which places higher requirements on the internal environment control of submarines.
And we also need to think about how to safely store these batteries inside the submarine
Not only will a higher temperature be generated during the high-voltage fast charging process, but the battery pack will also generate a high temperature during the rapid discharge process.
This means that the time the submarine can sail at high speed underwater will be limited. Once the battery overheats, it must stop to cool the battery or reduce the speed. As a result, the submarine's combat performance will be affected.
.”
Speaking of this, Wen Changhong glanced at Wu Hao and continued: "In addition, this latest generation of super solid-state batteries has another problem, that is, it is too heavy. This undoubtedly increases the weight of the submarine and increases the
The tonnage also increases the construction cost.”
Wen Changhong paused, looked around, and saw everyone listening attentively, he continued: "Of course, these challenges do not mean that we should give up using this high-performance battery.
On the contrary, I think we should actively face and solve these problems.
Perhaps, we can work more closely with Mr. Wu's team to jointly develop solutions.
For example, we can study how to reduce manufacturing costs and improve battery durability and maintainability; at the same time, we can also explore more effective cooling systems to ensure that batteries do not overheat during charging."
After hearing this, Wu Hao nodded and agreed: "Director Wen is right. Any technology has its two sides. The new generation of super solid-state batteries does have some problems, but this is the direction we need to work hard to overcome.
I believe that as long as we both work together and give full play to our respective advantages, we will be able to find solutions to these problems."
Speaking of this, Wu Hao paused for a moment, looked around everyone, and then continued: "Here I will answer and explain the questions raised by Director Wen. If you have any questions or suggestions, you can put them forward.
, let’s discuss it together.”
Speaking of this, Wu Hao continued to speak to everyone. His voice was calm and powerful, as if it had a convincing magic power.
"Regarding the issue of the new generation of super solid-state batteries being expensive, this is indeed a challenge we are currently facing.
However, what I want to say is that with the advancement of technology and large-scale production, the cost of the new generation of super solid-state batteries is expected to decrease, and consequently the price will also decrease.
Everyone knows that the price of any product actually has a great relationship with its production capacity. The higher the production capacity and the greater the output, the cost will naturally decrease, and with continuous technological upgrading and optimization, the cost will also increase.
further reduction.
So now everyone thinks that this new generation of super solid-state batteries is expensive. This is mainly because the new generation of super solid-state batteries that you want have just been developed and are kept confidential. This battery has not yet been put on the market and the production volume cannot increase.
, the cost is naturally relatively high.
We all work in this industry, so we naturally understand these things. Let’s not talk about other things, let’s just talk about this submarine. Can the cost of building one submarine be the same as building eight submarines?
Besides, this new generation of super solid-state battery has such excellent performance, can’t it be more expensive? As the saying goes, you get what you pay for, and good things are naturally more expensive.”
After hearing what Wu Hao said, everyone present shook their heads. Naturally, they knew the reason for this, especially Mr. Zheng and other shipyard representatives who felt the same way.
Mr. Zheng said with emotion: "Yes, everyone is complaining that our price is too high, but who knows why the price is so high.
The cost is too high. Various materials, facilities and equipment, technology research and development, labor costs, etc., each item is a big expense, and the total cost is naturally high.
And some of them we have worked hard to develop and build, but in the end we only purchased one or two ships. Is the price not high?
We also need to eat, and we also need to support all the employees, so we can’t just make a profit at a loss.”
"That was not what I meant."
After hearing what Mr. Zheng said, Wen Changhong waved his hands and explained: "I want to ask Mr. Wu if it is possible to lower the price of this new generation of super solid-state batteries. The price is too expensive now."
