Chapter 55 Element X Solid-State Batteries
The new chapter was sent at eight o'clock in the morning, because I took a fancy to the recommended tickets in the hands of book friends, and I was embarrassed to ask book friends for tickets and collections.
When Thomas arrived in New York, he returned to Thomas's home, a 200-square-meter wooden house on the outskirts of New York City, which was overgrown with weeds.
The next day, Thomas and his assistants wholly acquired "ETC High Energy Battery Co., Ltd." at a premium of 20% at a price of 12 million US dollars at lightning speed, and at the same time injected 10 million US dollars to develop and produce new high-energy batteries.
Two days after Thomas' acquisition of ETC, Niuniu delivered the fully automated production equipment for the production of "X-element solid-state batteries" to the ETC plant and sent robots to install it. The first YX-1 X-element solid battery was successfully rolled off the assembly line the day after the installation of the equipment.
The battery is a special battery for electric vehicles, with specifications of 303mm× 197mm× 200mm, a capacity of 90kah, a weight of 35kg, and an output voltage of 110V and 840V. Charging time: 110V input voltage, 0.5ka/s, 220V input voltage, 1ka/s; 380V input voltage, 10ka/s. A car with a self-weight of 1.7 tons consumes 15 kWh per 100 kilometers at an output voltage of 380V, has a maximum speed of 150 km/h, and can drive continuously for more than 1,000 kilometers after being fully charged. At the maximum voltage output of 840V, the car has a maximum speed of 280 km/h and can drive continuously for 600 km. It can be guaranteed for more than 10 years.
Subsequently, various models of sample batteries rolled off the assembly line one after another. For example, the battery used in mobile phones can last up to 2 years. Basically, once charged, the phone can be used and scrapped. Laptop batteries can be used continuously for more than 1 year on a single charge.
For the promotion and publicity of the X element solid-state battery, Thomas did not adopt a conventional sales model. Instead, it takes the same approach as the promotion of "prebiotics". First held a small "new solid battery press conference", and then took advantage of the strong network jishu, people unknowingly "hacked" into shijie's major well-known websites, in the form of reposting a "ETC company invented high-energy solid battery, the electric capacity is 800 times that of ordinary batteries, shijie energy revolution began" article pasted on the homepage of each website.
In this way, it only took Thomas one day to push his "X-element solid battery" to shijie. Although the influence of this news among netizens is not as shocking as that of "prebiotics", in the eyes of professionals, it is undoubtedly the explosion of a large-yield atomic bomb over New York.
The phone and fax of the ETC company continued one after another, which was too busy for a few telephone operators to get off work, and the voices of these beautiful beauties were already hoarse. Thomas took pity on the fragrance and cherished the jade, and had already prepared the "throat moistening tablets" produced in China for these European and American beauties.
The click-through rate of the company's official website has also increased exponentially, and the number of posts left and inquired on the Internet has far exceeded the speed of the reply of the official website managers. Battery experts and researchers from all over Europe and the United States rushed to New York ETC High Energy Battery Co., Ltd. to get close to the "X element solid battery".
At the beginning of the phase 1 clinical trial of "prebiotics", Thomas's "high-energy solid-state battery" had already passed the acceptance of all-meter energy experts and received unanimous praise.
Thomson, a well-known critic in the United States, wrote an article pointing out that "the invention and application of the 'X element solid battery' will open the door to the fourth industrial revolution. ”
The Washington Post, under the headline "Mi Guo stands at the pinnacle of the shijie energy revolution", gave a large look at the prospects for the application of "X-element solid batteries".
The CIA of the United States carefully studied and analyzed the commercial application prospects of the "X-element solid-state battery", especially the military application prospect of the "X-element solid-state battery". An in-depth investigation of the ETC company and several of its main figures was immediately conducted. The investigation of Thomas himself is even more nuanced, investigating the big and small things from his childhood to adulthood, and even what color underwear Thomas wears is clearly investigated.
The investigation concluded that Thomas and his two assistants had a strong Micha complex and were politically taciferous pacifists.
While working in a laboratory in Europe, while conducting some kind of physical experiment, they carried out a dangerous mistake, but unexpectedly obtained this even more surprising result.
The three of them immediately resigned from their jobs in this physics laboratory, organized a laboratory by themselves, and conducted more in-depth research and experiments on this energy storage phenomenon, and after fully mastering the principle of energy storage and manufacturing and production process, they returned to New York to acquire "ETC High Energy Battery Co., Ltd.", and then shocked Shijie's high-energy battery was born.
The deputy director of the CIA in charge of high-tech security met with Thomas, chairman of ETC High Energy Battery Co., Ltd. Inform Thomas that the "X-element solid battery" of the "ETC Company" has been involved in national security. The product is subject to the restrictions on the export of high-tech products, and all export contracts must be reviewed and approved by Congress, and the CIA will supervise the entire production and sales process of ETC.
Subsequently, the Defense Procurement Agency of the Ministry of Defense of the United States interviewed Thomas. The Ministry of Defense has invested $500 million in ETC to develop and purchase 100 battery packs for heavy-duty helicopters. Invest $500 million to purchase two battery packs for 10,000-ton submarines. The Ministry of Defense has specific requirements for the functionality, performance, and specifications of the two models of battery packs.
Faced with such a huge procurement contract, Thomas did not hesitate to readily agree to the contract requirements of the Ministry of Defense and guaranteed delivery within a month.
The procurement office and deputy deputy minister Jishu, who was in charge of the negotiations, were taken aback, and the delivery time of the previous contract for the procurement of weapons by the Ministry of Defense was more than five years, but this Thomas boasted that he would complete the order according to the contract requirements within a month, and he was simply an out-and-out madman.
The deputy deputy minister had the urge to turn around and leave. He wanted to reconsider whether to sign this contract, he felt that this Thomas was very unreliable, but no scammer could have deceived the Ministry of Defense no matter how daring.
Despite some twists and turns, Thomas signed the billion-dollar deal. The one-month delivery time of the deputy minister's assistant is really not a matter for Thomas, he doesn't need to study the experiment at all, as long as Niu Niu sends him the production program according to the contract requirements, it is OK, and all the manufacturing process is completed by a fully automatic production line. Don't say a month to deliver, if Thomas wants him to deliver it a day later.
After the arrival of one billion yuan, Thomas immediately acquired a small pickup truck manufacturing company near New York, renamed it "Star Technology (XKKJ) Manufacturing Co., Ltd." and began to "develop" all-electric vehicles and all-electric civil helicopters.
