Mid-March.

The weather in Foggy City is finally starting to warm up a bit.

The daily teaching work of Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences is operating normally, but there is no need for Ding Yue to worry about this, after all, now the teaching work of Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences has become a system, and with Director Qi Chunsheng of the Academic Affairs Office presiding, Ding Yue has much less to worry about.

However, although there is less effort in teaching, in other aspects, Ding Yue has a lot of things to worry about.

At present, the most important thing for Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences is the birth of "graphene battery technology".

The first graphene battery developed by his sister Ding Xiaoyou, plus the mechanical stripping preparation machine for graphene developed by Ding Xiaoyou and the cutting-edge team of the Department of Mechanics before.

It's like opening a door.

It is also a gateway to a new world in the field of energy batteries, which is of great significance.

Ding Yue is also very clear about this.

Therefore, Ding Yuecai did not rashly make an official announcement on the day he learned that his sister Ding Xiaoyou had developed a graphene battery.

Administration Building, in the Principal's Office.

Ding Yue has received a lot of phone calls these days, and Xiao Wenxing, the director of the Education Department, has called Ding Yue for several days.

It's not.

Director Xiao made another call to Ding Yue today.

"Hey, Director Shaw. ”

"President Ding, as I told you two days ago, I have reported to the General Administration of Education in Yancheng that your Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences has developed a graphene battery, and the General Administration has contacted the Xia Academy of Sciences again. ”

Ding Yue could hear that Director Xiao's tone on the phone was very excited.

Because Xiao Wenxing's understanding of graphene battery technology was not deep enough, when he saw the graphene battery developed by Ding Yue's sister Ding Xiaoyou that day, although he was also shocked, what he didn't expect was that this research result was even more shocking than Xiao Wenxing imagined.

"Oh, that's it. ”

"Principal Ding, aren't you excited, aren't you excited? ”

Xiao Wenxing felt that Ding Yue's response was a little calm.

Although this young man has indeed been much calmer since he became the president of Fog City University of Arts and Sciences, he is still very calm about such an important matter.

"Actually, I expected that. ”

Ding Yue replied calmly.

Graphene battery technology can affect many fields, the future market and space is very wide, this battery technology developed by virtue of the so-called "future materials", is indeed enough to attract the attention of the Xia Academy of Sciences.

But there must be a certain reason why Xia Keyuan has not contacted Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences.

Ding Yue also thought of this.

After all, graphene battery technology is actually being developed by many technology companies around the world, and even there must be research institutes under the Xia Academy of Sciences.

It's just that Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences took the lead in developing a graphene battery, but the problem is that whether it is a global technology company or a Xia Ke Academy, they are very clear about one thing.

That is, there is a premise for graphene battery technology to have a huge impact.

It is also a very critical premise.

The premise of this is the mass production of graphene!

In that year, the two scientists who discovered graphene, the material of the future, won the Nobel Prize, which can be described as a groundbreaking achievement.

However, if the application of graphene materials is to be more in-depth, the difficulty that needs to be overcome is how to strip high-quality graphene from large-scale production.

So far, whether it is the General Administration of Education or the Xia Keyuan, the reaction is actually not so big.

But what they don't know is.

The method of preparing graphene by physical and mechanical exfoliation has been optimized by Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences, and a high-efficiency graphene mechanical exfoliation preparation machine has been developed!

Mass production, for Ding Yue's Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences and Feiyue Group, is just a matter of one sentence.

What Ding Yue is thinking about now is to see if he can win the National Science and Technology Award with the graphene battery technology and graphene mechanical stripping preparation machine mastered by his Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences.

If you get this award.

Then your own Fog City University of Arts and Sciences can be upgraded smoothly.

"Oh? Is it that the Xia Academy has already contacted your Fog City University of Arts and Sciences?"

Xiao Wenxing saw that Principal Ding was so calm and calm, so he asked curiously.

"Not really. ”

Ding Yue replied negatively.

The reason why Director Xiao is so excited and excited is because he thinks that graphene batteries can set off a revolution in the field of batteries.

This is indeed the case.

It's just that, compared with the above General Administration of Education and Xia Keyuan, the reason why they don't have such a strong reaction from Director Xiao Wenxing is because Director Xiao is not aware of the problem of graphene mass production that those above are aware of.

"By the way, President Ding, when will your Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences announce the research results of graphene batteries?"

Director Xiao Wenxing asked about this matter.

He's been waiting for this big news these days, but it seems that the University of Arts and Sciences in Foggy City hasn't released the news for a long time.

"Come on, don't we here at Fog City University of Arts and Sciences have to prepare carefully. Ding Yue said with a smile.

This kind of thing can't be announced directly like before.

Ding Yue asked his students majoring in media at Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences to make an official announcement video, mainly about graphene batteries.

After all, not everyone in the country and even in the world knows what graphene is, and they don't know how powerful graphene batteries are.

Therefore, with such a popular science video at the time of the official announcement, more people can understand what a powerful scientific and technological product and technology developed by Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences.

"Well, I'm looking forward to it. ”

Director Xiao Wenxing said.

"Okay, Director Xiao, we will let you know as soon as we make the official announcement. ”

"Good. ”

After hanging up the phone, Ding Yue looked at Wen Ruohan, the secretary standing beside him.

She's been standing here for a while, and when she sees herself calling, she should have something to report to herself.

"President Ding, just now the Xia Academy of Sciences called the office and said that Vice President Zhou of the Xia Academy of Sciences is looking for you. ”

Wen Ruohan hurriedly reported the matter to Principal Ding.

That's Xia Keyuan!

The full name is Xia Academy of Sciences, which is the highest institution in the field of scientific research in Xia Guo, even if Wen Ruohan is a student of liberal arts, he also knows what the status of Xia Academy of Sciences is.

"Oh?"

When Ding Yue heard this, he felt a little surprised.

However, this is not the first time Ding Yue has been in contact with Xia Academy of Sciences, the last time he studied gallium nitride semiconductor materials with several professors from Jiangnan University of Science and Technology, he had dealt with people from the Institute of Materials of Xia Academy of Sciences.

But this time, it seems that it should be someone from the Xia Academy of Sciences, after all, this time's graphene battery technology, compared with gallium nitride semiconductor material technology, is indeed more explosive.

The third-generation gallium nitride semiconductor material technology is available abroad, but it has not yet been developed in China, and then it was jointly developed by Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences and Jiangnan University of Science and Technology, which did cause a lot of sensation in China at that time.

However, this time, the graphene battery technology has not yet officially announced the research results at home and abroad!

"Quick, call back!"

Ding Yue immediately asked Wen Ruohan to call back.

"Okay!"

Wen Ruohan returned to her office seat and used the office landline phone in the principal's office to call back to Xia Keyuan.

However, this time the call came, and no one answered for the time being.

"Principal Ding, it seems to ...... No one answered. Wen Ruohan turned his head and said in frustration.

"It's okay, keep fighting. ”

Ding Yue was not in a hurry.

Since when I was on the phone with Director Xiao Wenxing just now, it was the Xia Academy of Sciences who took the initiative to call, so this matter will definitely not be able to escape.

Wen Ruohan had to call back to the Xia Academy of Sciences again and again, but no one answered.

Thousands of miles away, Yancheng.

In the office of Zhou Sicheng, vice president of the Xia Academy of Sciences, the office phone kept ringing, but there was no one in the office at this moment.

Not long ago, Zhou Sicheng made a phone call to the president's office of Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences, and the person who answered the phone was the president's secretary, saying that their principal Ding was talking to the Wucheng Education Department on the phone, so Zhou Sicheng was going to call later.

However, at this time, an academician in the academy found Zhou Sicheng and said that he had an important matter to report, so Zhou Sicheng temporarily left the office.

"Academician Sun, the projects have been strictly approved, but it's really not good, you have to go to Dean Chen. ”

Vice President Zhou Sicheng was talking about a national key scientific research project with an academician with high moral integrity.

"Oh, by the way, Academician Sun, I remember that you did it several years ago, right?"

Zhou Sicheng suddenly remembered this matter, so he asked Academician Sun.

A few years ago, Academician Sun did lead a team with two other academicians to do research on graphene materials, including graphene batteries.

However, due to the limited use of graphene materials and the stripping production of graphene materials, the project has not been greatly promoted.

"Yes, why did Vice Dean Zhou ask about this?" asked Dean Sun, who was already old, curiously.

"That's the case, and our hospital also got the news from the General Administration of Education, saying that a university has recently developed a graphene battery. ”

Vice President Zhou Sicheng explained.

"Graphene batteries, this is not unusual. Academician Sun shook his head and said.

Back then, Academician Sun and his team also developed graphene batteries, but what can they do?

If the development of one or two graphene batteries cannot be done, and the peeling and extraction of high-purity graphene cannot be solved, this technology has a huge weakness.

That is, it cannot be applied on a practical scale.

"Oh, isn't it unusual?" Zhou Sicheng frowned and muttered: "The performance of graphene batteries is much stronger than the current lithium batteries and fuel cells, right?

"Yes, at that time, we developed three graphene batteries that could be used by the space agency, two of which are still in use, but two graphene batteries are naturally a drop in the bucket for China's aerospace equipment. ”

Academician Sun shook his head helplessly and said.

The graphene battery needed by the China National Space Administration had a very high technical level, and only the top team of the Xia Academy of Sciences had the opportunity to develop it at that time, but at that time, Academician Sun of the Xia Academy of Sciences and his team only stripped and extracted three high-purity graphene materials for aerospace applications.

"Then why didn't you continue later?" Zhou Sicheng continued to ask.

Originally, when Zhou Sicheng got the news from the General Administration of Education, he was quite excited, but it seems that he was thinking a little too much?

After all, I have done graphene battery technology research on the Xia Academy of Sciences.

"Later, because the stripping and extraction technology of graphene has not been able to go up, there is no high-purity graphene material that meets the standard, what do we use to make graphene batteries?"

Academician Sun sighed and said.

"I see. Because Zhou Sicheng is not an expert in graphene materials and related technologies, after listening to what Academician Sun said, he realized that this was the case.

It is not surprising that a university in Wucheng has developed a graphene battery according to the General Administration of Education?

"Vice President Zhou, you just said that some universities have developed graphene batteries? Which university? Xiamen University or Fudan University?"

Academician Sun is also quite curious about this matter.

Although the exfoliation and preparation technology of graphene materials is limited, the ability to make better graphene battery technology is actually to lay a good foundation in the future.

Because of the stripping and preparation technology of graphene, one day there will be a high-efficiency method to crack it!

At least that's what Academician Sun thinks, but unfortunately in recent years, Academician Sun has not led a team to do research in the field of graphene materials, but is doing project research on nuclear energy.

"It's not Xiamen University, it's not Fudan University. Vice Dean Zhou Sicheng shook his head and said with a smile: "You may not believe it when you say it, it is a private university in Fog City. ”

"Private universities?"

Academician Sun was indeed a little surprised: "In terms of comprehensive strength, private universities that have the ability to study graphene battery technology, I only have Xiguang University in my impression, right?"

Academician Sun does not look down on domestic private universities, but seeking truth from facts, domestic private universities are really unable to compare with key public universities in the field of scientific research.

In Academician Sun's view, a slightly better private university in China, that is, Xiguang University, is slightly able to compete with some key universities.

"No, it's a very young private university, called Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences, Academician Sun, haven't you heard of it? It was the last time, with Jiangnan University of Science and Technology, the private university that completed the mature application of gallium nitride semiconductor material technology. ”

Vice President Zhou Sicheng smiled faintly and said.

The two of them were about to walk to the vice president's office, and Academician Sun's ears were a little better, as if he heard a phone ringing: "Vice President Zhou, is the phone in your office ringing?"
