Chapter 63: Fluids

If you are famous, you are good. Nobel laureates, super-rich, it's not just fun to do something. So, the site selection of the accelerator near Cotton Tree City is going well, and the diamond factory is about to be interviewed.

This time, there is no need to hide it, and directly tell the local government that this is a diamond factory, not for hadron treatment, but in case the plan to make diamonds fails, hadron treatment can also be carried out.

I don't know why, but the budget suddenly multiplied several times, turning into an investment of $5 to $1 billion. How many carats of diamonds can this guy buy?

Synthetic gem-quality diamonds are really expensive.

It's really a lot of money these days, not to mention the big three, the rich are standard. There are also chemical plants related to smoke filtration, which are also planned to spend $5 to $1 billion for mergers and acquisitions or partnerships.

This plan for synthetic diamonds even caused diamond stocks to fluctuate for a time, which shows the great influence of Professor Ju Chen's project, and the critical value he calculated, although most people can't understand it, believe it to be true.

Nano, micron diamonds are certainly no problem, but 90% of industry experts do not believe that they can simulate the scale of synthetic diamonds such as the Poppi Gai meteorite, besides, the price of synthetic diamonds is not up, there is no eternal value, the old diamond manufacturers will fool the benefits of natural diamonds the most, their marketing ability is so strong, I am afraid that the synthetic will never turn over one day.

Anyway, this is one of Juchen's toys, a huge toy. In fact, there are a lot of existing material human beings have not studied well, diamond is one, maybe through the adjustment of different formulas, environmental and other factors, the explosion pressure method can produce surprising discoveries, unknown things make Juchen feel interesting, he doesn't know what those "obsessed" with doing charity think, can only say...... Horses of courses.

It is said that the West has spent trillions of dollars on charity in Africa, but it still does not work, and some people wonder if it is wrong to do so, for example, the mosquitoes that spread malaria need mosquito nets, and the donated mosquito nets destroy the mosquito net workshops in small towns.

The food aid destroys agriculture in Africa, and so on. This idea has improved, but it is still superficial. You can't imagine donating 100,000 pairs of shoes to Wenzhou people, Wenzhou's shoe factories will go bankrupt, and then Wenzhou people will die of poverty. Why? Because Wenzhou people will do other business.

Without Butcher Zhang, I would have to eat pigs with hair? I'm afraid this kind of tribe can't afford to support Adou, right? System, environment, culture, industrial trends, human nature, the speed of globalization, and many complex factors contribute to poverty in Africa, and aid, if not positive, at least cannot be a negative factor.

Africa, one day, will catch up, and this day may come very late, but it will never be absent. If the day comes too quickly, many people will not be used to it.

Evolution, which produces mechanisms that accelerate evolution, such as chromosome replacement in bacteria. I don't know when the day the integration of African brothers into the global economy will really accelerate. Without the motherland, capital will surely flow into the African continent like water flowing down to the lower ground.

At this stage, the biggest obstacle to Africa's prosperity is probably inertia, African workers are known for their laziness, and this is what our ancestors should look like in the place where our ancestors lived.

Disease is also a major cause of poverty, for example, Botswana, one of the world's top diamond producers, is one of the top four diamond producers, along with South Africa, Russia and Australia. However, this is of little use to the fact that Botswana has an HIV prevalence rate of nearly 40%. The whole country is sick, and the economy is gross.

It is a pity that in an era when awareness of preventing sexual transmission is not strong, it is no wonder that it is not poor to catch up with a wave of such terrible diseases.

To alleviate poverty in sub-Saharan Africa, the first thing to do is to practice asceticism, which is not something anyone can do in the short term, of course, Juchen is not interested in doing it, cruel social choice, only a few people who eat chicken at night can survive and become a happy and healthy modern country.

That's all for charity, let's be obsessed with the technological innovation you like.

The four-season version of the CVT bicycle, the weight is large, it must be electric, Juchen pondered how to improve the shortcomings in this area when he inspected the foundry, and now many motorcycles are troublesome to charge, and the battery is small and dare not go anywhere, Juchen has a relative, bought a cheap motorcycle, 20 kilometers can not run, and he is nervous about going back to his hometown for a few kilometers.

At the end of the day, there is a lack of a cheap and fast charging solution.

Tesla's battery is made up of thousands of 18650s, which is spectacular, completely different from ordinary battery cars. This gave Juchen a revelation - can you make a battery that can be as convenient as refueling?

Ju Chen thinks so, in order to become a "fluid", the battery must be made into a sphere, imagine a bunch of ping pong balls together, can "flow" between two containers, is it considered to have some properties of fluid? and is the most important property of simulating gasoline.

Table tennis is probably not very good, because Juchen needs a smart battery, no matter which end is in contact with the neighbor's battery, it can be automatically adjusted to the correct positive and negative connection, the table tennis battery is equivalent to a continuously variable speed battery, any point can adjust the electrode, which is too difficult.

Therefore, a more feasible solution is a golf ball, although Juchen has never seen a golf ball, but he has watched a documentary, knows how it is made, and remembers its shape deeply, it has many faces, although it looks like a ball, but it is actually a polyhedron.

The polyhedral ball limits the number of electrodes, stacks a bunch of golf batteries together, connects them steadily through magnetic suction, and then automatically adjusts the positive and negative electrodes, and the "fluid battery" is invented!

After this kind of battery is depleted, you can export the empty battery and fill it with a new battery pack full of vitality, which is the same as gasoline, of course, the only problem is - 1 set of batteries is expensive, let alone 2 sets!

In fact, Tesla has long had a battery replacement service, because the price seems to be particularly cost-effective, and it has never been popular.

It seems that the fate of this fluid battery may be the same, and it can only be used as a temporary emergency "range extender", which is very different from the idea of completely replacing the traditional charging method.

In the future, electric vehicles (bicycles or cars) of the Juchen system should have a built-in golf smart battery, which can be charged at home at night normally, and when you need to travel long distances or run out of power on the road, you can replace the fluid battery at the charging station.

Tesla's charging stations are particularly expensive, but Juchen's charging stations do not require special voltage, and you can build one anywhere there is electricity, and there are more than a dozen or dozens of them with sufficient electricity, so it is not difficult to lay a global network.

By integrating the fully laid battery swap network through a single platform, car owners can find and book battery packs on the app, and no longer have to worry about low power.

Thinking of this idea, Juchen happily went to play golf with Zhong Gui, and then while learning to play, he told him about his smart battery plan, this partner who was entangled in grievances.

Zhong Gui was stunned: "Is it possible to operate like this?

Juchen smiled: "You overestimate the price of smart chips, on Taobao, IC cards are only a few cents a piece, hehe, low-end chips are very cheap." ”

Zhong Gui: "In addition to chips, there are many faces, that is, many contact points." ”

Ju Chen: "These are very cheap, if you don't believe it, I will bet 1,000 yuan." ”

Subsequently, Zhong Gui investigated a circle, and really didn't expect that all the components of this battery are really not much more expensive than ordinary batteries, of course, you need to start from scratch to design and manufacture, before the output goes up, it must be expensive. It's like the cost of the first Ford-class nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, the USS Ford.

Ju Chen said: "The most awesome thing about this solution is the heat dissipation performance, because under low load, it can intelligently turn on and off some batteries in turns, and selectively turn off some batteries when overheating, without affecting the overall use, which is really intelligent." ”

Zhong Gui sighed: "Awesome! How did you come up with it?"

Ju Chen: "Such a simple solution, why is no one doing it now?"

Zhong Gui smiled bitterly: "Fluid battery, ghosts can think of it, and only ghosts can think of it." The professor is truly talented. ”
