After Fang Hong instructed the company to fine-tune its strategy in the global commodity trading market, he turned to the layout of cutting-edge technology, he looked at Tian Jiayi and said: "The company has increased R&D investment in the application of new materials for room temperature superconducting materials, and has established a national superconducting materials research institute in Xincheng to bring in the top scholars in this field." ”

Hearing this, Tian Jiayi asked, "How much is the expected investment?" ”

The beautiful assistant doesn't ask him why now, because he can always make the right decision, take 10,000 steps back, as far as his terrifying ability to make money is concerned, some money makes him a "loser", anyway, the speed at which he makes money is much greater than the speed at which he is a "loser".

Fang Hong thought for a while and said: "Let's start with a budget of 3 billion yuan, and then continue to increase investment, room temperature superconductivity is not a new thing, it has been researched in the last century, but we must continue to increase investment." ”

Speaking of this, Fang Hong looked at the beautiful assistant and smiled: "The RDA company in the "Avatar" movie, why do you think they have to go to war with the Nawei people?" It's not just to go to the room-temperature superconducting ore on the planet Pandora. In short, if the new material of room temperature superconductivity can be developed, the fourth industrial revolution of mankind will inevitably come, which can change almost all the existing industrial patterns of mankind. ”

Superconducting materials, simply put, are super conductive and have zero resistance.

For superconducting materials, the electric current itself is the movement process of electrons, and the electrons hit the atoms in the process of moving, so the material will heat up, and part of the energy of the electrical energy will be converted into heat.

The superconducting state makes the material have zero resistance, that is, the electrons at the microscopic scale move without any blockage.

When there is no resistance, the material does not heat, and the material does not heat, and of course there is no loss of energy.

If superconducting materials can achieve room temperature superconductivity, the new energy industry will first usher in unprecedented development, new energy is electricity, but it has not been able to achieve popularization, even if Fang Hong's previous life ten years later, the unprecedented development of the new energy industry can not be fully popularized.

It is because the equipment that uses electricity cannot be transported over long distances, and the loss is too great, and the farther the transmission distance, the more energy is lost in the middle.

Therefore, power plants are generally built nearby, don't look at the wind power and photovoltaic in the northwest, but from the large power consumers in the eastern coastal cities, the distance is too far to use, and you can only use the surrounding thermal power.

Therefore, compared with oil and natural gas, electricity is still not worry-free enough.

Room-temperature superconductivity means that the material basically achieves zero resistance in the greenhouse.

Today's superconducting materials need to be cooled down to minus 1 or 200 degrees Celsius under normal atmospheric pressure to achieve superconductivity, and it is obviously not like a large-scale application.

However, if there is a room-temperature superconducting material, there will be no energy loss in power transmission, and the photovoltaic power generated in the Sahara Desert in Africa can be transmitted to the new city, and the global power grid can be easily connected.

Even if controlled nuclear fusion is not done, superconducting energy storage for generators made of superconducting materials will make the efficiency of the power system extremely impressive.

Room temperature superconducting materials can also be used in some existing electronic devices, such as mobile phones, computers, automobiles and other devices that are currently known to humans to use electricity, the power will be ridiculously large, and the energy consumption will be surprisingly small, there is no resistance there is no heat dissipation requirement, the mobile phone will not be hot, and there is no need for heat dissipation, which means that there is not too much energy wasted.

In this way, all electrical equipment not only does not need a large battery, but also can achieve ultra-long battery life and ultra-high power output.

A smartphone battery of the same size can now last 20 hours, and if you switch to a room-temperature superconducting material, you may be able to double the battery life by saving some of the heat loss.

And whether it is electronic equipment, cars or even houses in the future, it is not uncommon to float in the sky, and the mountains suspended in the air in the "Avatar" movie are the best presentation.

The phenomenon of superconductivity enables not only levitation, but also suspension. As long as there is no problem with the superconducting material itself, if you want to go to the sky, you can go to the sky.

The traffic pressure of the megalopolis will disappear in an instant, because the birth of room-temperature superconducting materials can make the city's transportation network change from a surface plane to a three-dimensional transportation network.

Just like the futuristic city in a science fiction movie is reflected in reality, vehicles travel at different heights of the city, and that kind of science fiction picture will become a reality.

By dispersing vehicles on one plane, that is, on the ground, at different heights, even a metropolis with a population of more than 100 million will never have traffic jams.

For example, if the ground traffic pressure cannot be sustained, then establish a transportation network at an altitude of 50 meters above sea level, and if it is not enough, then plan a plane transportation network at an altitude of 100 meters, and so on.

There is no doubt that the new energy vehicle industry will also usher in earth-shaking changes due to room temperature superconductivity, and fuel vehicles will completely withdraw from the historical stage.

With room-temperature superconducting materials, the military electromagnetic weapon system is promising, electromagnetic rifles, electromagnetic guns, whether it is ship-based electromagnetic guns, vehicle-mounted electromagnetic guns and even fighters can be installed with electromagnetic guns, and the superconducting energy storage revolution brought by room-temperature superconducting materials has made the utilization rate of energy unprecedentedly improved.

With room-temperature superconducting materials, the research of controlled fusion is also expected to achieve a big leap, and the realization of controlled nuclear fusion is much simpler for human beings to go out of the earth and into deep space, whether it is to build a larger space station or to establish a permanent human base on the moon or even Mars, it is no longer out of reach.

It can be seen that once the new material of room temperature superconductivity is realized, it will inevitably allow the entire human race to fast forward directly to the fourth industrial revolution, and the profound changes it will bring to human civilization may be more obvious than the representative technologies of the fourth industrial revolution such as artificial intelligence, biotechnology, and quantum computers.

For room-temperature superconducting materials, the application range is too broad, and Fang Hong is also determined to make this new material, which may not be able to be developed in the next one or two decades under normal circumstances.

But......

If you open the hanging, the situation may be very different.

Fang Hong thought about saving up a wave of achievement points, and then selected a top scholar in the field, and then used the prop card to fill up the research and development ability of this scholar, and the probability of making room-temperature superconducting materials would definitely increase significantly.

The prospect of this new material, the value of the blood capital.

However, it is precisely because the impact of this new material on all mankind is too great, even if it is made out in a short period of time, it cannot be easily disclosed, because the impact on all walks of life is too great, it will cause a major reshuffle of countless industries, and this influence is global.

There is no doubt that Europe and the United States will inevitably launch a comprehensive and crazy crackdown, so the timing of the launch is also crucial.

However, of course, the sooner the better it can be done, the initiative is in its own hands, and as long as it is developed, it can be the first to be applied in the military field, and the electromagnetic weapon system is the best carrier.
