At this moment, Li Cai couldn't believe that he had just heard the number "3.5", especially when it was followed by the word "times".
The volumetric energy density is 3.5 times that of Panasonic Group?
Li Cai didn't know whether he was crazy or the words he heard were crazy. For the energy density of batteries, this multiple simply means changing the field of batteries in this era.
Li Cai, as the CEO of BYD, will of course be very clear about the concept of increasing battery life by 3.5 times.
Especially 3.5 times the volumetric energy density. Volumetric energy density is also a very important attribute for cars.
Because for family cars, the space that can be used to store batteries is relatively limited, and often in order to improve the battery life of pure electric vehicles, when they design electric vehicles, they often directly fill them with batteries, but even so
, in the past it was difficult for them to compare with fuel vehicles in terms of battery life.
So they are very afraid of Panasonic Group's hydrogen fuel cells.
And now the battery Lin Xiao has developed can actually achieve 3.5 times the volume energy density of Panasonic Group’s hydrogen fuel cell!
Now Panasonic Group's hydrogen fuel cell can allow a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle to have a battery life comparable to that of a fuel vehicle. And if a car equipped with this proton battery, wouldn't it be able to compare with an airplane in terms of battery life?
Li Cai still couldn't believe it. Finally, he looked at his secretary and asked, "Did I hear it wrong just now? The news said, 3.5 times?"
The secretary swallowed, and finally nodded with some difficulty, and said: "Yes, Mr. Li, CCTV said 3.5 times."
"this……"
Li Cai didn't know what to say. Finally, he understood why the news was so hyped about hydrogen fuel cells. Sure enough, this was all to pave the way for what would happen later.
It's true that if you want to promote, you must suppress it first.
As for why it did this, Xinwen Lianbo probably couldn't stand the arrogance of Panasonic Group, so it specifically used this method to use their hydrogen fuel cell as a stepping stone to set off the proton battery developed by Lin Xiao.
.
At this time, the news screen on the TV changed again, and Lin Xiao finally appeared on the screen.
Seeing this, Li Cai and his secretary couldn't help but concentrate, wanting to see what kind of content Lin Xiao would reveal later.
Then they heard the reporter ask: "Excuse me, Academician Lin, can you briefly tell us about this proton battery? Why is it called a proton battery?"
Lin Xiao nodded, and then said: "This proton battery mainly uses the reaction of hydrogen ions. We all know that a hydrogen atom only has one electron and one proton, and after it turns into a hydrogen ion, there is only one proton left.
So at this time we can call it a proton."
"Of course, at this time, some people may be confused. If it is said in this way, then what is the difference between it and other batteries that use hydrogen, such as hydrogen fuel cells."
"However, the proton battery is actually a rechargeable battery, which means that it is like today's pure electric vehicles. It obtains electric energy directly through charging. In this way, we can better utilize the cheap electricity in the future.
.”
"In addition, in the future, we can also change the structure of the battery so that the battery can be like a fuel cell and obtain rapid charging like fuel by directly adding hydrogen."
"Of course, in fact, we have now used more advanced colloidal electrolytes in proton batteries. This electrolyte is safer than the current lithium-ion batteries when faced with high-power charging. According to our tests,
Based on the specifications of pure electric vehicle batteries, the proton battery can safely withstand 500 kilowatts of charging power and can be fully charged in less than an hour."
“Finally, it’s our battery life. Because our battery is far ahead of any battery currently on the market, it is also three times longer than the hydrogen fuel cell that appeared some time ago.
Such battery life can greatly change people's lives in the future."
"For example, from now on, our new energy vehicles will no longer have to compromise on battery life. They can easily run more than 2,000 kilometers, or even three or four thousand kilometers after being fully charged."
When the reporter heard what Lin Xiao said, he smiled and said: "If such a high battery life is released in the future, I will definitely buy one. This should be better than a hydrogen fuel cell, right?"
Lin Xiao said with a smile: "This is certainly better than any current hydrogen fuel cell. Compared with the current hydrogen fuel cell technology, it is completely uncompetitive with this proton battery."
"After all, when the car's range reaches two to three thousand kilometers, the time it takes to charge once is a huge advantage compared to the time it takes for a hydrogen fuel cell to go to a hydrogen refueling station three times."
"That's true." The reporter nodded, and then asked: "So, how long will it take for this battery to be mass-produced?"
"For mass production, it can be done at any time. It is not too difficult to mass produce."
"OK……"
Next, the reporter asked several questions one after another, all related to the advantages of this proton battery. Of course, they also talked about the disadvantages, but these disadvantages had almost no sense of existence in front of the previous advantages.
Just like Li Cai and his secretary, who were sitting in front of the TV at this time, their hearts had already been attracted by all the advantages Lin Xiao had just described.
If the relevant data narrated by the news anchor previously surprised him, then having Lin Xiao say it himself made him feel at ease.
Because Lin Xiao said so, it can be confirmed that it is true.
Thinking of this, Li Cai took a deep breath, and then said: "Go and tell the shareholders that we need to hold an urgent meeting. I think we need to reconsider the importance of Chief Lin's battery technology and our support for electricity.
Planned investment intensity.”
"Yes!" the secretary responded immediately, and then hurried to notify their shareholders.
Li Cai stayed in the office, watching the news broadcast that was still going on on TV, and felt even more admiration for the chief scientist in his heart.
No wonder, being able to become their country's chief scientist is always able to create so many miracles.
Maybe the United Nations should give him another title, that is, human scientist?
But at this time, he suddenly remembered that Lin Xiao had mentioned the latest hydrogen fuel cell technology from time to time in the interview. Obviously, this was mocking the hydrogen fuel cell company next door.
He couldn't help but laugh and shook his head. From the looks of it, this chief scientist would still hold a grudge.
Of course, this can also make this great man of science become more humane.
…
Needless to say, the power of communication brought by the news broadcast has aroused surprise and disbelief among many stakeholders almost as soon as the news was broadcast.
This proton battery is so unconventional that it completely exceeded their imagination.
Then, people realized that the battery market in the future will probably undergo a huge change.
After Kang Zheng, the president of CATL, learned of the news, he held a meeting overnight to discuss the matter. In the end, he unanimously made the same decision as Li Cai, which was to increase investment in their mine hunting operations.
Since they are still at a disadvantage compared to BYD in terms of size, the actual effect of their mine-chasing operations is still slightly inferior to that of the power support plan, and now they are willing to spend money to surpass them in this regard.
Power supply plan is in place.
Just to get Lin Xiao's approval in the end and get the authorization for this proton battery.
They know very well that proton batteries will have the potential to dominate the entire new energy vehicle market in the future.
And as new energy vehicles gradually and completely replace fuel vehicles in the future, the profits they can earn will inevitably become larger and larger.
So they are absolutely determined to get this proton battery!
However, BYD obviously will not give in, so these two giant companies in the battery industry once again set off a "charity involution".
Of course, the secret competition between these two large companies did not attract much attention, and it did not affect the majority of ordinary netizens.
However, there are a lot of people discussing this proton battery on the Internet. This is mainly because the behavior of Matsushita Makoto and Lin Xiao at the press conference was known to Chinese netizens, and now Lin Xiao as
How can a lot of people's spiritual idols be able to bear such a tone?
So some time ago, a lot of people started a heated discussion on the Internet. Of course, the topic of the discussion was how to scold Makoto Matsushita.
But things are different now. Lin Xiao has directly developed a proton battery. Its various performances are much better than the hydrogen fuel cell that Panasonic boasts is rare in the sky and does not exist on the ground. It is the kind of all-round crushing.
Ever since, the original theme of how to scold Makoto Matsushita has now changed directly to how to mock Makoto Matsushita.
"Makoto Matsushita: I'm so stupid, really, I only know that Lin Xiao has not developed a new battery yet, but I forgot that a new battery will be developed in the future. I just pretended to be a dick at the press conference, and I was slapped in the face.
It came so quickly, isn’t our hydrogen fuel cell very powerful? Why did it become like this? I’m so stupid, really..."
"As soon as Matsushita Makoto arrived at the store, all the drinkers looked at him and smiled, and some shouted, "Masushita Makoto, the battery you just released is about to run out again." He did not answer, but said to the cabinet, "Here comes a refill.
The hydrogen station requires nine hydrogen vehicles." Then they discharged nine hydrogen fuel cells. They shouted loudly and deliberately, "You must have been slapped in the face again for pretending!" Kong Yiji opened his eyes and said, "What are you doing?
In this way, someone is innocent out of thin air..." "What innocence? I saw with my own eyes the day before yesterday that the battery life of your hydrogen car was lost by someone else's proton battery car, and you were beaten while hanging." Kong Yiji blushed, and there were blue veins on his forehead.
They argued, "The bragging of entrepreneurs cannot be considered bragging...it's a joke! Can the things done by entrepreneurs be considered bragging?" One after another, they were unconvinced and said, "Hydrogen energy vehicles may not necessarily work."
, something like "the hydrogen refueling station has been repaired" made everyone burst into laughter: the store and outside were filled with happy air.』
"You are really talented! I admire you"
"Makoto Matsushita's move, I am willing to call it the most expensive pretense in history. The most important thing is that it is directly pretending to be something."
"I heard that their hydrogen fuel cell has been developed for more than ten years, and the total investment is as high as several hundred million. Ha, now I want to see what Matsushita Makoto will say when the time comes!"
"He committed seppuku and committed suicide in a matter of minutes."
"It really made me laugh. Is this the legendary slap in the face that comes too soon?"
"Well, I really want to know how Matsushita Makoto would react after hearing the news."
"..."
The Chinese netizens were in a happy atmosphere. Obviously, they all felt elated this time.
Especially the neighbor who made their life good in their childhood is going to have a bad life.
…
Of course, while Chinese netizens were in a state of joy, the news of proton batteries also spread across the ocean from China, and the first place to arrive was Japan.
In a large hotel in Tokyo, Makoto Matsushita, who has been enjoying the fullness of his life recently, is jogging in parallel with a woman of the same status as his wife. After all, the time in Japan is one hour faster than that in China.
, coupled with the time it took for the news to spread, Japan has already entered the nightlife.
However, before the parallel jogging was over, Matsushita Makoto's cell phone on the bedside suddenly rang.
Hearing the noisy cell phone ringtone, Matsushita Makoto immediately felt unhappy. Who dared to disturb him at this time?
But when he picked up the phone and looked at the caller, he suddenly realized that it was his grandfather.
At this time, shouldn't his grandfather have fallen asleep?
With doubts in his heart, he gestured to the woman next to him and answered the phone.
"Grandpa, you haven't rested yet? Your health is urgent."
However, at this time, the head of the Matsushita family did not show the kindness he had shown during this period, but said in a very serious tone: "A Cheng, where are you now? Come back soon!"
After hearing his grandfather's order, Matsushita Makoto became even more confused. What on earth happened?
However, no matter how reluctant he was, he could only say respectfully: "Yes! Grandpa!"
Then he didn't dare to delay any longer, so he quickly left the hotel and returned to their family manor.
After he came back, he saw that the main members of their Panasonic family were all here, and their faces seemed to be bad.
Seeing this, Matsushita Makoto realized that something might have happened.
He looked at his grandfather and asked, "Grandpa, what happened?"
But his grandfather did not speak. On the other side, one of his cousins stood up and said: "A Cheng, a big thing happened. That Lin Xiao has now confirmed that he has developed a new type of battery with a volume energy
In terms of density, it is 3.5 times that of the hydrogen fuel cell developed by you!"
After listening to his cousin's explanation, Matsushita Makoto's face suddenly showed an expression of disbelief.
"How... is this possible?! 3.5 times?! How can it be possible with today's battery technology to achieve this level?!"
No one present responded to this question. After all, the answer was already ready to come out.
If this was an anime at this time, there would probably have been a narration explaining: "Because that Lin Xiao is the one who creates the impossible!"
At this time, Matsushita's cousin said again: "Cheng, the family has spent a lot of resources to help you promote hydrogen fuel cells. Now, you'd better think about what to do next. If you can't
Try your best to recover our losses, then I think you will not be able to take on the important responsibilities of our family competently in the future."
"you……"
Matsushita Makoto immediately glared at his cousin. Like him, this cousin was one of the candidates to succeed the family head for the next generation. But now that his cousin said this, it was tantamount to adding insult to injury.
.
But before he could say anything, his cell phone rang again.
He quickly took out his cell phone and hung up, but at this time he discovered that the caller was none other than the US Secretary of Energy, Kenny.
His eyes suddenly lit up and he said quickly: "Minister Kenny called me. He will definitely be able to help us."
Then he quickly answered the phone and said as if grasping for a life-saving straw: "Minister Kenny, you..."
However, before he could say anything, he was interrupted by Minister Kenney.
Kenny said in a very annoyed tone: "Mr. Matsushita, you really disappoint me! Your hydrogen fuel cell is worse than a piece of shit compared to other people's proton cells!"
"Our cooperation will stop from now on. In addition, I will take back all the losses you have caused me from your Panasonic Group!"
Then, a busy signal came from the phone.
Matsushita Makoto's vision went dark, and he felt dizzy for a while.
It wasn't until he finally recovered a little, that when he looked at the other people in front of him, they all showed panic expressions. Apparently, they all heard what Kenny said just now.
And their head of the family, Matsushita Makoto's grandfather, pointed at Matsushita Makoto and said: "Cheng, you are so disappointing!"
Then the old man fainted.
When the people from the Panasonic family saw this, they immediately gathered around him, feeling anxious.
At this time, Matsushita Makoto could not bear such repeated blows, and finally his vision went black again and he fainted.
