Wu Qian looked at himself in the mirror, so he didn't recognize it, he was about to become the second brother of Yunchang, and his face was like a heavy jujube.

"Barbara, what do you say?" Wu Qian turned on the mobile phone and put it aside, and washed his face with water in his hand.

Barbara would be at Oxford University in England, and walking in Radcliffe Square, she wouldn't know that her boss was indulging in the Hero's Grave just now, but even if she did, she wouldn't hesitate to make the call.

She looked at the fallen leaves in the distance and said, "Boss, there is an excellent investment opportunity, I think I have to inform you in time." ”

"There is a research team at the University of Oxford that has made a breakthrough in the research of solid-state lithium batteries, which has overcome a very critical difficulty in the marketization and commercialization of solid-state lithium batteries. ”

"This research institute was previously sponsored by the Volkswagen Group, but perhaps it has not been achieved for too long, Volkswagen withdrew its investment last month, this research breakthrough was completed by the team at its own expense, I believe that it will not be long before this breakthrough patent will definitely be bought by Volkswagen, but I know from the previous contact process that the research team no longer seems to want to cooperate with the Volkswagen Group. ”

"My suggestion is to invest in this research institute, buy the previous patents, and bear the needs of its solid-state lithium battery research and development in the later stage!"

Barbara's tone was very solemn, and in her opinion, this was an extremely rare opportunity.

Wu Qian took out a few pieces of paper from the paper box on the side of the water platform to wipe the water on his face, picked up his mobile phone, and said: "Solid-state lithium battery? Is there a great market prospect for this scientific research project in the future? I don't know much about the battery industry." ”

Barbara is Wu Qian's investment advisor, Wu Qian will not pretend to understand in front of his own profession, that is meaningless, he hired someone to provide him with advice.

Barbara found a long wooden chair and sat down, and said: "Boss, the battery products on the market today are basically lithium-ion batteries, and lithium-ion batteries have no room to develop, and the energy density is close to the limit." ”

Even this year's Nobel laureate in chemistry, the father of lithium batteries, has expressed his feelings that the era of lithium batteries is coming to an end. ”

......

Barbara talked a lot, and finally concluded: "Boss, let's put it this way, battery technology has become a bottleneck that limits the next wave of technology explosion!"

Wu Qian listened very carefully, he has always had the idea of investing in high-tech, but he has never found an opportunity, but he didn't expect his subordinates to be like him, and they have been paying attention to this aspect.

"Barbara, I understand, lithium batteries are almost in the end, I believe, but you just said that the future is not only solid-state lithium batteries can go, then other such as fuel cells, supercapacitors, aluminum-air batteries, magnesium batteries, aren't they all possible to form technological breakthroughs?"

The breakthrough in battery technology mentioned here refers to the fact that it can be marketed and popularized, and it is not the kind of plutonium radioisotope battery used by Voyager 1, and it is impossible for nuclear batteries to be commercialized......

Only things that can be commercialized can make money and have investment value!

"If I just invested in the research and development of solid-state lithium batteries, and some other technical field suddenly broke through and achieved commercialization, wouldn't I lose money?"

Investing in the research and development of high-tech technology is a high-risk and high-return investment behavior.

The desire for a breakthrough in battery technology has been brewing, and some countries have already started researching it decades ago, and they have come a long way, and now everyone is stuck in front of the last hurdle.

That's commercialization!

"Boss, the next generation of battery products that can be popularized and used on a large scale in the future must be solid-state lithium batteries, which can only be seen from the direction of 'intelligence' and capital flow in recent years. ”

"In the last decade, the number of solid-state battery patents has increased significantly, and compared with battery technology in other fields, it is not an exaggeration to call it a blowout development. ”

"Volkswagen Group, BMW Group has spent a lot of money in this field of research, Toyota has come up with a decent finished product, not only the capital in the field of automobiles is flowing, electronic giants are also involved, Apple, LG, Dyson, Samsung and other groups have already begun to invest in the layout. ”

"Boss, even if you don't need to use a new generation of solid-state lithium battery industry chain, but it will never prevent you from using solid-state lithium battery patents to make money, this is a very big business opportunity, worth playing!"

Barbara has been eyeing this field for a long time, the national team and professional players have already entered the game, and the boss she is currently serving also has this strength, but she lacks a great opportunity, and now that the opportunity has come, she thinks it is very necessary to get involved.

Wu Qian thought seriously, he raised his hand and motioned to Cooks to close the toilet door, the environment was too noisy.

He understands a truth very well, the core technology is the real hard core power, and mastering the core technology is equivalent to mastering the inexhaustible wealth.

The reason why some countries can easily make money is not because they have mastered the core of some high-tech technology.

Chip semiconductors, biopharmaceuticals, ultra-high-end precision machine tools and various precision instruments, etc., these are the core technology is king, and they never stop earning huge profits.

"Barbara, you said that the research institute of Oxford University has made a technological breakthrough, to what extent?"

Wu Qian asked.

Barbara frowned and thought about it, she needed to give an easy-to-understand example, after all, it took her a long time to understand the relevance of solid-state lithium batteries, and she couldn't expect the boss who didn't know anything about batteries to understand it as soon as she heard it.

After thinking about it, she said: "Boss, let's put it this way, the cost of making a solid-state lithium battery for mobile phones with the previous technology is about 6,000 pounds, and after the technological breakthrough, the cost has been reduced by about 20%, which is a big step towards commercialization!"

Wu Qian showed a surprised look, he really didn't know that the cost of a solid-state lithium battery for a mobile phone was actually 6,000 pounds, no wonder it couldn't be commercialized, no matter how good it was, the common people couldn't afford it, and it was a ghost.

Being able to reduce the cost by 20 per cent at once may sound like a great deal, but when you think about it, the cost is still as high as 5,000 pounds......

But there's no denying that the progress has been enormous.

This is how scientific research comes out step by step, and it can be achieved overnight.

Wu Qian has always been a little entangled, the high-tech field is not like real estate, department stores and other industries, you can see and touch, investing in this kind of scientific research project, it is very likely that nothing will be gained.

"Barbara, tell me the cost. ”

Wu Qian planned to see how much money was needed before making a specific decision.
