Cai Weiye's first 20 years can be regarded as smooth sailing, entering the best high school in the city and successfully being admitted to a key university. It's a bit of a pit for majors, polymer chemistry.

When he was about to graduate from college, he found that the employment situation of his major was not very good, so he went to graduate school.

After graduating from graduate school, he totaled it and simply went to study for a doctorate.

In terms of academic achievement, he has surpassed most people. With his academic qualifications, it is not difficult to find a job. However, he knew that he was very talented in reading, but he was not that kind of genius.

During his Ph.D., his performance could only be described as mediocre, at least, he had not considered a career in academia before. Until that day, he went to meet the man named Chen Xu through the introduction of his mentor.

This man impressed him, and not just because of the amazing woman next to him. There is also a special temperament on the other party, which makes him feel pressure.

When he heard the other party say that he was put in charge of a laboratory, he felt that he had met a liar. How can there be such a pie-in-the-sky good thing in the world?

He said that he wanted to think about it, but in fact, he had basically taken the other party for a liar.

However, on the way back, he thought about it carefully and felt that it was not right, this matter was arranged by his mentor.

His mentor is also very well-known in the industry, with academic status, cooperation with many companies, and a lot of money. There's no need to cheat him as a student.

Or was the mentor also deceived?

He couldn't hold back, so he looked for an opportunity to ask, and from his mentor, he learned that it was an executive of a large company in the industry who pulled the strings.

The mentor also asked him how he was talking, and he naturally did not tell the truth, but only said that he was still in contact.

What is the relationship between him and his mentor, not so much a teacher and a student, but a boss and an employee. Naturally, it will not be 100% trusted.

After he got such an answer from his mentor, he thought about it a lot, but after all, he still didn't resist the temptation of one step to the sky, and called Chen Xu.

As long as you are cautious, you are not afraid of being deceived.

…………

Three days later, Cai Weiye signed an employment contract, the conditions were very harsh, all the results made in the laboratory were owned by the laboratory, and at the same time, he also signed a confidentiality agreement, non-compete clauses and so on. He felt like he had signed a deed of sale.

There was no way, Chen Xu's annual salary made him unable to refuse. If he had gone to find a job on his own, he would not have been able to reach this annual salary anyway.

The reason why he signed the contract so quickly was because he knew about this laboratory, cooperated with his mentor's laboratory, and he had been here several times.

Just a few months ago, the head of the laboratory died unexpectedly. Unexpectedly, it fell into Chen Xu's hands, there are a lot of equipment here, and it is conservatively estimated that these devices alone are worth tens of millions.

He now knows that Chen Xu is not a liar, but a rich second generation with money and willfulness, who can buy a laboratory with tens of millions of dollars to play around, isn't it rich and willful?

Before signing the contract, Chen Xu passed, what projects and the content of the experiment were all designed by him, and Cai Weiye only needed to implement it.

The lab's first project was a lithium-air battery. He had checked the information before, and he had some understanding, but there were only immature laboratory products at present, and there were many problems that had not been solved.

Theoretically, the energy density of lithium-air batteries is more than ten times that of lithium-free batteries currently on the market.

If it can really be done, it will be a big killer that can subvert the pattern of the battery industry. Unfortunately, this concept has been proposed for decades, and there is no mature product yet.

Cai Weiye has already inquired, and his boss does not even have a graduate degree. Against this backdrop, he didn't think the lab could do anything.

Anyway, it's good that the boss is happy.

With this in mind, Cai Weiye started a new journey, he first recruited a few graduate students, and started various experiments according to the requirements of the boss.

The boss would come over every other day, usually for half a day, to communicate with him.

Sometimes, he would run back to school and borrow school equipment to experiment. Some large instruments, not in the lab.

And just like that, a month passed.

Cai Weiye looked at the data in front of him, a little confused, and couldn't help but ask the assistant next to him, "Are you sure that these data are real?" ”

At present, there is only one project in the laboratory, and the experiments to be done are quite simple, which is to use the battery to repeatedly charge and discharge, and then observe. He doesn't do it himself anymore, he leaves it to his assistants to do it.

The assistant was a man and a woman, although his eyes were bloodshot, his face was flushed with excitement, "100% sure, the two of us will take turns staring, there will be no mistake." ”

Cai Weiye couldn't help but swallow his saliva and said a little uncertainly, "In other words, we have solved the problem of inhibiting the production of lithium dendrites?" ”

"Hmm." The two assistants looked at him with bright eyes, they were both graduate students, and they were also studying related majors, so they naturally knew the meaning of solving the lithium dendrite problem. Being able to participate in it will leave a lot on their resumes.

Cai Weiye was stunned for a while, then suddenly stood up and rushed into the laboratory in a hurry.

Seeing this, the two assistants hurriedly followed, and saw that he had done the experiment himself......

…………

When he saw Chen Xu again, Cai Weiye's perception was completely different, and he felt that the boss was so mysterious, and in his eyes, the image was taller than his mentor.

After all, the one who can solve such a huge problem as lithium dendrites is definitely an extremely awesome character.

"Well done."

Chen Xu looked at the experimental data, nodded, and said, "The matter of the paper will be handed over to you." If the data isn't authoritative enough, I can arrange for you to go somewhere with better equipment. ”

Cai Weiye nodded violently, "Okay." "This achievement is so significant, naturally the more authoritative the data, the easier it is to be trusted.

Then he said, "I will sign your name for the paper." ”

"Nope." Chen Xu shook his head and said, "Sign your name." ”

"Huh?"

Cai Weiye was blinded, how much of a sensation such a paper would cause in the industry, he could probably imagine. In fact, he didn't make any contributions, this electrolyte was brought by Chen Xu, and the content of the experiment was also according to Chen Xu's plan. He didn't dare to take the credit at all.

As a result, Chen Xu actually said that the work was his? This is even more exaggerated than pie in the sky. Until Chen Xu left, he hadn't come back to his senses.

PS: Recently, another wave of severe crackdowns has come, trembling, begging for comfort.
