A row of tall quay cranes around a container ship in the harbor of New York is something that shows the beauty of human industrial violence. Even if the strongest human beings in the world stand below it, the huge contrast of strength and volume between the two can easily make people impressed by the embodiment of this industrial might.

The beauty of industry and the feelings of the industrial party can be summed up in one sentence: big is beauty, more is good, power is justice, and precision is truth!

The 10,000-ton ship was loaded with 2,400 containers, and it would take eight quay cranes to operate for more than a day just to unload these containers into the port's storage area.

The entire port of New York can be said to be full of the charm and justice of industrial power.

A day after the ship docked, a convoy of three Chevrolet cars drove into the port area, went through the formalities and headed for the storage area without stopping.

Warehouse 11904 in Area C of the New York Port Container Storage Area, which is an exclusive storage area of COSCO Shipping Group in the New York Port, is specially used to store some special cargo containers of COSCO.

The COSCO logo on a blue and white background is printed on the container, and only ten containers are placed on the planning surface of this large storage area.

These standard-size containers are inconspicuous in this sea of containers, and it is only when humans break into this eternal sea of steel that they are treated differently depending on their contents.

"This is it, please check the container number and finally sign here. ”

The staff of the container area of the port after completing the formalities. The lock on the container door was opened. With the clang-crunching sound of steel crashing and grinding. A container opens its mind to the people who come to it.

"This is a water lithium battery?" Ling Xiao watched with some curiosity as Motorola's Addison pulled out a well-protected box of water lithium battery rechargeable batteries from the container.

These batteries are well protected. There are 40 lithium batteries in one unit, which are packed in well-packaged cartons and printed with product logos and explanatory texts in English.

These products do not require secondary packaging at all and can be immediately sent to the retail system for sale to users.

Of course, not all products are packaged in this way, and two-thirds of lithium water batteries are actually simply packaged and transported, which are exclusively used for the original use of Motorola products.

Unceremoniously, EDITION tore open the intact packaging, then returned to his car and loaded the four batteries into the charger that had been connected to the on-board inverter. Immediately, the charging indicator on the charger lights up. And the black and white LCD display begins to display the data of the charged power.

In fact, not only is it the first time that Addison has seen the real thing of Xinke water lithium battery, but even Mao Qingzhu and Ling Xiao are also seeing it for the first time.

There was only one person present who was familiar with the attributes of lithium water, and that was Lu Yinglong, who had just recently arrived in the United States.

"Professor Lu, is our lithium water battery really that good?" Mao Qingzhu looked a little nervous.

Today's Mao Qingzhu is just a little person who has achieved nothing, and naturally he does not have the strong self-confidence that he later scolded. And the backwardness of the Chinese in science and technology can be said to have long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. It's hard to imagine that one day there will be a high-tech product that will be able to surpass the Americans.

If it turns out that lithium water is nothing more than a scam, Mao Qingzhu can't imagine what kind of ending awaits him and others.

"What is this......" Lu Yinglong himself is not a chemistry major, nor is he specialized in secondary rechargeable batteries, and he has insufficient understanding of the advanced nature of water lithium batteries.

But Ling Xiao is a person in the battery industry. And he also has a certain understanding of the research of water lithium battery, and said decisively: "In principle. Lithium water battery does have deep potential. As long as our products can be designed to the level of design, there is no reason for the Americans to refuse. ”

"yes, I'm just afraid it's not up to design. What are the factories in China like, we don't know?"

Mao Qingzhu and domestic enterprises to deal with not a day, two days, state-owned enterprises product technology backward style not to mention, although not the intention to manufacture inferior products, but the tragedy of quality control has made the products produced by state-owned enterprises have a bad reputation. So much so that in the eighties, when supply was tightening, the market was full of unsalable state-owned enterprise products.

Not to mention township enterprises, small collective enterprises, and affiliated enterprises, non-public enterprises that have quite the original capital to come to the world are blatantly manufacturing inferior products and even counterfeit and shoddy products.

If the price is not cheap enough, there may be no market for Made in China in the world.

As soon as Mao Qingzhu said this, Ling Xiao also hesitated. But at this time, Lu Yinglong didn't have to worry, he shook his head with a smile and said: "I think Xinke should be the best in China when it comes to quality, and it is even more serious than many military enterprises." Especially standardization and quality control, you don't know, but I have experienced it myself. ”

"Standardization?"

"Quality control?"

Mao Qingzhu and Ling Xiao were full of doubts, feeling that the two of them didn't even have the awareness of this aspect.

"The so-called standardization, simply put, is to compile the production management methods that originally relied on experience into standard procedural provisions, so that workers can implement the ......."

Lu Yinglong is actually learning and selling, but when he didn't work in the Xinke factory before the Chinese New Year, he was actually blind to standardization and quality control.

However, the advantages of standardization and quality control in management are obvious, and it is a hurdle for formal enterprises to grow up.

Mao Qingzhu, who came into contact with this concept for the first time, listened to Lu Yinglong's explanation with relish, and couldn't help comparing and asking about his own experience, and he actually had a relationship with him.

The Chinese side whispered, and the people of Motorola gathered next to the EDITION's car, looking forward to observing the charging process of the lithium battery battery.

In fact, the charging process of the battery is not pretty, on the surface, it is the numbers on the LCD display that keeps beating, and the charging indicator that keeps flashing.

But even with such a boring process, the scientists at Motorola Technology still watched it with relish.

"This is lithium water, Ike, do you have a knife on you, let's take one apart and take a look?" Addison kept playing with a battery that was not stuffed into the charger, and looked at the assistant who was probing his brain on the side.

"Boss, I only have a Swiss Army knife, why don't you use it?"

"It's okay, the water lithium battery packaging in Chinese is mainly aluminum skin and plastic, and I estimate that the main structure inside is a ceramic ......"

Addison took his assistant Ike's Swiss Army knife and divided it by two.

"Sure enough, look!" said Addison, stepping out of the car and placing the dismembered lithium water battery on the car's hood.

"This structure is no different from the outer packaging of ordinary rechargeable batteries, as long as the head is unscrewed off and the structure inside is clear - this is the brittle packaging that we love and hate!"

Protected by the aluminum skin and plastic jacket of the lithium battery battery, the thin-walled porcelain bottle pulled out by EDITION is the so-called brittle encapsulation. The positive interface of the battery is fragile fixed at the top of the porcelain bottle, and once there is an expansion gas generated inside, the electrode will break and lose its pathway to protect the safety of users using lithium batteries.

It is such a simple idea, which easily solves the biggest problem of water lithium battery in the opinion of EDITION.

"The Chinese are not too bad, it looks like this thing is really good!"

"Yes, it's very simple, and the idea is very ingenious......"

The Americans who were watching did not have a clear conscience and made pertinent comments one after another.

"If the energy density of water lithium battery can really reach the level of nickel-metal hydride batteries, then this product really has what the Chinese say, and can meet the requirements of the market." ”

"But this is not enough, the energy density of lithium water batteries is only comparable to that of nickel-metal hydride batteries. Although cheap, this will not have a revolutionary impact on the demand for mobile phones. ”

"Well, that's what I thought too. ”

After all, Motorola's technology department is still dominated by people in the communications industry, and it can be said that it is politically correct to start from the mobile phone to consider the problem.

"Doesn't that mean that there is also a lithium iron phosphate material that can improve the energy density of lithium water batteries?"

"This is not good, even if lithium iron phosphate has the effect that the Chinese say, then the entire patent system is still in the hands of Xinke, which does not meet the company's strategic requirements." ”

"Don't worry. ”

Addison beckoned, surrounded the people of Motorola, and said in a low voice: "The company has a plan to let the Chinese continue to develop lithium iron phosphate batteries, and if we want to lead again in the battery, we must directly win the technology of thin film water lithium battery." When we master the third-generation water lithium battery technology, we can get rid of the new technology company and teach these arrogant Chinese a hard lesson!"

"However, the Chinese have established the technical development route of thin-film water lithium battery, and I believe that there has been a certain accumulation, how can we surpass them?"

Addison sneered: "This is simple, on the one hand, the company will invest much more money than the Chinese and mobilize more powerful forces to carry out scientific research competitions." On the other hand, it is necessary to give the Chinese a little sweetness on lithium iron phosphate batteries. When the time comes, the short-sighted Chinese will naturally be reluctant to invest too much in the third generation of water lithium battery, in case the second generation of water lithium battery technology does not make enough profits, it will become obsolete......"

"Oh, hey, hey—"

"Hehe-"

"Haha-"

"High! The company's strategy is really high!" (to be continued......)
