In any case, in the past, no one would have imagined that there would be such a scene: America's ambassador would be asked to leave?
And it still happens in a company.
Although the background of this company is not small, the identity of the other party is that he is the ambassador of the only superpower on earth.
These ambassadors from countries large and small looked at Zhu Cheng and at the same time looked at Adams.
Adams was obviously extremely angry. He stood up and pointed at Zhu Cheng with an almost trembling hand.
He completely did not expect that the other party would respond with this attitude just after he expressed his opposition.
As an ambassador, no matter how hostile the two countries are, the ambassador's treatment is very good. As a result, the current situation is completely different from what he imagined before.
Facing Adams's anger, Zhu Cheng still remained seated, just like before, and his expression was very calm, not changing at all because of this incident.
After a long while, Adams finally said: "Mr. Zhu, are you sure you want to talk to me with this attitude?"
"Mr. Adams, I have already explained that we are a company, and the operation of a company must of course be based on the pursuit of higher profits. I think Mr. Adams should be very clear about this, right?"
"So I also hope that Mr. Adams can respect the interests of my company."
At this point, Zhu Cheng still gave Adams a step down: "In this case, if Mr. Adams still insists on his previous idea, then I can only ask you to go out. I don't know what you are thinking now?"
Upon hearing this, Adams' expression softened slightly, but he still had a cold face. Finally, he snorted and sat back without saying a word.
Of course he didn't want to leave. After all, he also had a mission regarding this meeting. America also wanted controllable nuclear fusion, so even though he had guessed before that Jinwu Energy Group could not be so kind, he
It is also a must-see.
Seeing this, Zhu Cheng smiled in his heart, then looked at everyone present again, and said: "Then, now I will explain the other requirements..."
As Zhu Cheng spoke, the ambassadors from other countries present also came to their senses, and then felt a little regret in their hearts.
I originally thought I could watch a big show.
I didn't expect that this would be the end of it.
Of course, after such an episode, everyone present also understood that if they want Jinwu Energy Group to build a controllable nuclear fusion power plant in their own country, they can only accept all the arrangements of Jinwu Energy Group.
The reason why Zhu Cheng did this just now was obviously to scare the monkeys, and to warn them all to be honest, otherwise he would just "ask you to get out".
This is an absolute seller's market. There is no house buying market at all. Even if they, as buyers, do not buy anyone, Jinwu Energy Group, as the seller, will not worry at all.
Because if China is the only country in the world that has controllable nuclear fusion power plants, then only China will enjoy the benefits of cheap electricity and energy.
When the time comes, China will ride on the energy dividend, even if there is no demographic dividend, the gap between China and other countries will only become wider and wider.
Of course, the reason why Jinwu Energy Group plans to cooperate with them now is to obtain greater benefits and then accelerate their development.
So in the end, the gap between them is destined to become wider and wider.
But the ambassadors of these countries present were helpless about such a result.
Who made a super scientist appear and actually develop controllable nuclear fusion?
"...Then we only have these few requirements. If you have any questions, you can ask me now, and then we will discuss the start of construction later."
Zhu Cheng finished all his requests, and everyone present felt a burst of curse in their hearts.
Are these the only requirements?
Let’s not talk about the previous requirements for control rights. Let’s talk about one of the requirements first. If you want to reserve a quota for construction, you must first pay 3 billion yuan. If you don’t have the money, you can use resources to offset it. It also states that the price of tungsten metal
It has the highest priority and can be offset at 1.2 times the market price.
For this, everyone can easily think that when building a controllable nuclear fusion reactor, metal tungsten is more important.
But so what if they know it. Metal tungsten is originally the most commonly used material in nuclear fusion. Now that they know this, is it possible that they can still play some tricks?
Obviously it doesn't exist.
Of course, there may be another option at this time, that is, they can speculate on the price of tungsten metal internationally, and then the price will be three or four times higher. Jinwu Energy Group will then have to spend more money to build it.
Yet?
However, the most they can do about this is to think about it, because what needs to be understood is that China owns 58% of the world's tungsten ore reserves and 82% of its annual production.
If they dare to speculate on the price of tungsten ore, it will simply be a fight between retail investors and big bankers, and everything will be for nothing.
So they don’t have to think too much and just accept this honestly. Of course, some people will secretly complain that if they want to purchase tungsten metal from the market, they will probably buy basically the same.
They can only get tungsten from China, and then they in turn want to give it to Jinwu Energy Group. This is simply a waste of money.
In addition to this, when it is officially built later, they will still need to bear about 30% of the cost.
This is simply to kill them as if they were taken advantage of.
However, again, in order to avoid being asked out directly, they must pretend to accept it even if they cannot accept it. The specific matters can only be discussed later.
At this time, Zhu Cheng saw that no one present raised any questions, so he smiled and said: "Since everyone has no questions, our meeting will end here today. After the ambassadors go back, they can discuss it with your superiors.
The next meeting will be in a week, and it will be at the same time."
With that, the meeting ended.
Many ambassadors left one after another, and some ambassadors stayed and wanted to have a private discussion with Zhu Cheng. However, these private requests were rejected by Zhu Cheng, who asked them to discuss whatever they had to do at the next meeting.
And these ambassadors could only leave with great regret.
After sending all these people away, Zhu Cheng quickly left the conference room and then went to the next room.
And there was a person sitting in the room, and it was Lin Xiao.
"Chief Lin, look, this is the meeting. Do you have any instructions?"
Walking in front of Lin Xiao, Zhu Cheng said respectfully.
Lin Xiao smiled and said: "I don't have any instructions. You are the general manager and you have the final say. What's more, you asked me to come here. I don't even know why you asked me to watch your meeting here."
As he spoke, he looked at a computer screen next to him, which showed the conference room where they had just met.
"You're kidding." Zhu Cheng said with a smile, and then said: "I invite you to come to this meeting, and I also want you to see that now that we have controllable nuclear fusion, we can let the whole world know about us.
What a change in attitude, this is all due to Chief Lin."
Lin Xiao couldn't help but laugh. He didn't expect that Zhu Cheng could be so round and round to flatter him.
However, he also knew what Zhu Cheng was thinking. He just wanted to use this kind of goodwill method to prevent him from interfering with the company's operations in the future.
So then he shook his head and said, "General Manager Zhu, if it's just this kind of thing, I think there's no need for me to stay."
"Jinwu Energy Group bears very important responsibilities. As long as you can perform the normal functions of Jinwu Energy Group well, then I will naturally not interfere with you."
Hearing what Lin Xiao said, Zhu Cheng's face showed a little embarrassment, but he didn't expect Lin Xiao to directly express his thoughts.
Then he hurriedly explained: "You misunderstood. I am actually looking for you for another matter."
"Then just say it." Lin Xiao said.
"Come and take a look at this report."
Zhu Cheng said, then went to the table beside him and took out three documents from it.
"Please take a look at these three documents."
Lin Xiao raised his eyebrows, then stepped forward, took the document, and started to read it.
"Oh? A survey report on carbon dioxide and air pollution emissions, a survey report on the battery technology industry... and a survey report on people's willingness to replace pure electric vehicles after the popularization of controllable nuclear fusion power generation?"
"Well, yes." Zhu Cheng nodded and said, "You should also know that our Jinwu Energy Group is also responsible for reducing domestic pollutant emissions."
"Our current main sources of pollution include industrial emissions, coal burning, and vehicle exhaust emissions. With the popularization of nuclear fusion power plants, issues related to industrial sources and coal-fired sources will be effectively improved."
"Pollution from coal-fired sources should be completely reduced to a controllable range in the future, and the government will order those factories to make changes in the future for emissions from industrial sources. Anyway, electricity bills will become cheaper in the future, and the cost of treating pollution from industrial sources will also
reduce."
"But it's vehicle emissions that have become the main problem."
Speaking of this, Zhu Cheng sighed and said: "These new energy vehicles are still a big problem. The range of pure electric vehicles is too short, and whether they are other extended-range electric vehicles or other hybrids, in
The battery life is not much different from that of fuel vehicles, or even worse."
"And whether it is this kind of extended range or this kind of hybrid, it cannot be completely clean and pollution-free, and it will emit carbon dioxide, so it will be eliminated in the future."
"Then now the only path is pure electric."
Speaking of this, Zhu Cheng pointed to the public survey form in Lin Xiao's hand about citizens' willingness to change cars.
"Then the results of the investigation are like this, the data on that table."
Lin Xiao picked up the watch and took a look at it, then nodded slightly and said: "Well, I see... less than 40% of people are willing to switch to pure electric vehicles? The vast majority still choose fuel vehicles.
Or other powered models?”
"But forty percent should be quite a lot, right? Your sample size is more than 100,000, which is quite a lot."
"Haha, this data is also a survey released directly by the traffic control department through the traffic control software, and a lot of invalid reports have been eliminated."
Zhu Cheng explained the origin of the report, then shook his head and said helplessly: "But although the ratio of more than 30% is still quite a lot compared to before, after all, now we all use nuclear fusion power generation, so this
The proportion is still a bit too low. Among the remaining 60%, quite a few choose hybrid or extended-range models. For the public, battery life is still the first requirement. For them, even if the electricity bill is real
The decrease in electricity consumption just means that they have reduced their electricity costs.”
"Well, I understand."
At this time, Lin Xiao nodded, indicating that he understood.
Jinwu Energy Group is indeed responsible for the task of promoting the reduction of domestic air pollution emissions. This can also be regarded as a test for Jinwu Energy Group. After all, for a company like Jinwu Energy Group that masters the most advanced energy technology, if it wants to make money, it is like
It's as simple as a Middle Eastern oil guy sitting on the ground and sucking oil.
So in order to prevent the management from lying idle and doing nothing, they gave such a seemingly irrelevant task.
In fact, through this task, Jinwu Energy Group can be urged to build fusion power stations across the country as soon as possible. This will not only allow all parts of the country to quickly use cheap electricity, but also allow domestic
The air pollution will be controlled and improved as soon as possible, and it will also play a role in promoting Jinwu Energy Group to perform its functions.
It can be said that it kills three birds with one stone.
It is precisely because of this that Zhu Cheng is now entangled with this matter.
As for new energy vehicles, it is obvious that pure electric vehicles are truly new energy vehicles, while other types of vehicles that still require fuel or gas cannot avoid the emission of carbon dioxide or exhaust gas, so
Strictly speaking, it can only be said to be a half-baked new energy vehicle, just a compromise for the sake of a green license plate.
It's just that pure electric vehicles are limited by the fact that battery technology can't always make breakthroughs, so they still can't win the favor of everyone.
"So, what do you mean by coming to me?" Lin Xiao asked.
He knew very well the problems the other party was facing, but why did you come to him specifically now?
He always felt that this plot was somewhat familiar.
After hearing what he said, Zhu Cheng rubbed his hands and said with a smile on his face: "You are the supervisor of our Jinwu Energy Group and our national chief scientist, so I am here specifically now.
Please research a new battery that can change this situation."
"I believe that with your ability, Chief Lin, this matter must be a piece of cake for you, right?"
Lin Xiao couldn't help but hold his forehead.
Good guy, all of these people think of him as Doraemon?
He immediately said angrily: "General Manager Zhu, are you sure you are serious? How long have lithium-ion batteries been around? And for so long, we have not made much progress in the energy density of batteries. You
Why do you think I can solve this problem?"
Zhu Cheng said: "I heard from Academician Li Gang before that you accepted Academician Li Gang's invitation and went to their plasma institute. Then during the conversation with Academician Li, you followed Academician Li Gang's suggestion and began to study nuclear fusion.
, and then at the end..."
He pursed his lips towards the surroundings, and then continued: "Isn't this the case for our Jinwu Energy Group?"
Lin Xiao: "..."
He said why this plot development is so familiar, good guy, it turns out that Zhu Cheng learned it from Li Gang.
This kind of thing must never be agreed to. Everything happens once and that's enough. If it happens a second time and people hear that they can solve this level of problem just by asking him for help, then he will have a headache.
Big.
So I absolutely cannot agree to it.
So he immediately waved his hands and said: "This is not possible. With this level of technology, you don't just come to me and I will help solve it. If this happens again and again, everyone comes to me. You said I will come to you in the future."
what to do?"
"this……"
Zhu Cheng was stunned. He really had never considered such a thing. If this were the case, Lin Xiao would be very annoyed in the future, right?
But in the end he said: "Just agree to my request this time. This is also for the sake of our environment, and if this new battery technology can really be developed, wouldn't it also be a technology that can change our society?"
Energy utilization technology?”
"Although our power generation costs have been reduced, if people are still limited by batteries in the way they use energy, this will also affect the overall improvement of productivity and production levels."
Hearing Zhu Cheng's words, Lin Xiao suddenly fell silent.
When Zhu Cheng saw that there seemed to be a chance, he quickly asked again: "Chief Lin, you must help!"
He thought for a while, then clapped his hands and said: "In this way, our Jinwu Energy Group will sponsor you with the funds for this project. It is a sponsorship, and all the final results will belong to you. What do you think?"
Lin Xiao frowned slightly, finally nodded and said, "Okay, I promise you."
Zhu Cheng was immediately overjoyed and said repeatedly: "Thank you very much! I will find someone to draw up a contract later, and the experimental funds will definitely be sufficient by then!"
"Well, I understand."
"Okay! I'll leave everything to you!"
Zhu Cheng's face was filled with joy, and he was obviously very excited about Lin Xiao's agreement.
Of course, it's not surprising that he is so excited. After all, nuclear fusion has been solved. His battery technology issue will not be as difficult as nuclear fusion anyway, right?
As for Lin Xiao, he agreed to this mainly because Zhu Cheng mentioned that battery technology is also an energy technology.
Lin Xiao thought of this and planned to try out the energy revealer aura that the system rewarded him after he developed nuclear fusion.
According to the system, this energy revealer aura can help him research various energy technologies, including battery technology.
Just take a look at how powerful this halo is.
"The only problem is that I originally wanted to give myself a few more days off, but now it seems I no longer have the opportunity."
Shaking his head helplessly, he then said: "Then I'll leave first. Come see me again after you've drafted the contract."
"Okay! Please go slowly!" Zhu Cheng nodded, and then personally sent Lin Xiao out of the group headquarters.
