Chapter 731 Asia-Pacific Science and Technology Innovation Investment Summit

For Xu Chuan, after a leisurely New Year, there are really a lot of things to be busy.

The cooperation between the Xinghai Research Institute and NASA is just one of them, and he also has to take care of the work in the field of lithium batteries.

Qixiashan New Development Zone, in the headquarters building of Chuanhai Materials Research Institute.

Xu Chuan is discussing the treatment of lithium-sulfur batteries and the research and development of lithium-air batteries with master Xiong Fan Pengyue.

"In terms of the production of lithium-sulfur batteries, I have contacted several domestic battery manufacturers for preliminary communication."

In the office, Senior Brother Fan took out a document from the drawer, handed it over, and continued: "Judging from the current communication results, these domestic manufacturers hope to get the production technology of lithium-sulfur batteries from us. ”

"These are the initial cooperation conditions given by several domestic battery manufacturers, you can take a look first."

"If we can, I think we should identify partners as soon as possible and start the production of lithium-sulfur batteries."

In the case that the Chuanhai Institute of Materials has pointed out that 'monoclinic gamma phase sulfur' has the problem of diffusion of polysulfide compounds and shuttle effect in stable lithium-sulfur batteries, almost all research institutes have put this road on the research.

Especially in the case of the patent application of 'monoclinic gamma phase sulfur' being stuck, who can decipher the secret of lithium-sulfur batteries first, not to mention that they can completely occupy this huge market, at least they can share a sweet cake in it.

Xu Chuan took the document and asked casually while flipping through it: "Regarding what I proposed before, who got the cooperation to establish a set of lithium-sulfur battery production plant in Baling, what is the situation?" ”

Fan Pengyue: "There is no problem with this, the attached conditions have basically been agreed by the major manufacturers." However, these manufacturers have put forward requirements during negotiations, hoping to cooperate exclusively and monopolize the production and sales of lithium-sulfur batteries. ”

"If this can be done, whether it is CATL or BYD, they are willing to increase the proportion of shares." Among them, the most improved is CATL, which has always cooperated, and on the original basis, he can give a 70% share. ”

After a slight pause, he looked at Xu Chuan, hesitated for a moment and said: "To be honest, I think this share is already very high, pure technology shares, can account for 70%, in the battery industry is really the first time I have seen it." ”

Xu Chuan smiled and said, "Normally, we currently control the production technology of lithium-sulfur batteries, and the monopoly business is the most profitable." ”

"As for the 70 percent share"

As he spoke, he paused and fell into deep thought.

Technology can account for 70% of the shares, and I have to say that the chairman of CATL did give considerable sincerity.

But to be honest, Xu Chuan is not very happy to see his technology being monopolized.

Perhaps this is a bit crucial to his birth, after all, he was born in the countryside and came out of a poor life.

Monopoly means no competition, leading to reduced market efficiency, less innovation, and most importantly, a high probability of consumer welfare.

And technology is such a thing, in his opinion, it is for people.

If the technology made from his hands becomes a tool for capital to squeeze ordinary people, he is not happy.

After thinking for a while, Xu Chuan said: "Forget about the exclusive, let's follow the original way." A number of enterprises that have cooperated and chosen to build factories in Baling will be compensated according to the range of 20% increase in accordance with the assessed conditions. ”

Senior Brother Fan nodded and said, "In this case, I will arrange for the people on the business and legal side to connect with several major manufacturers as soon as possible to deal with the production of lithium-sulfur batteries." ”

"Well, I'm still relieved to leave these things to you."

Xu Chuan smiled and continued: "In addition, how is the preparation for the modeling of the paper "Quantum Theory of Microscopic Solid Reaction Processes in Electrochemistry"? ”

Fan Pengyue thought for a moment and replied: "The relevant projects have been launched, and a new project team has been jointly established by the research institute and the network technology company, and the personnel transfer has been preliminarily completed, and it is expected that the modeling work can be officially started in about a week." ”

Quickly reported the progress in his mind, and he continued: "But the focus of this work is not on the research institute, the specific situation has to ask Liu Jiaxin, she is the core of this project." ”

Xu Chuan nodded and said, "Okay, I'll talk about this later." ”

Judging from the current situation, there are really a lot of things that have happened to the senior sister this year.

Mathematical modeling of microscopic solid reaction processes in electrochemistry, reconstruction of computational models of chemical materials, research and development of artificial intelligence (AI), and development of academic intelligent assistants.

Modeling and writing all kinds of models and AI assistants, even if there are more than four-figure programmers on the side of tech companies today, is an extremely heavy year.

In the office, after the two chatted for a while, Fan Pengyue suddenly said: "By the way, junior brother, in a week, there will be an annual Asia-Pacific Science and Technology Innovation Investment Summit in the magic capital, and the level is for all Asian countries and regions. However, there will also be companies or representatives from other states to attend, I received an invitation letter, would you like to come and have a look? ”

Hearing this, Xu Chuan asked with some curiosity: "Asia-Pacific Science and Technology Innovation Investment Summit?" What for? ”

He really didn't know much about this, but if it wasn't valuable, this Senior Brother Fan probably wouldn't have mentioned it to him.

Fan Pengyue pondered for a moment and said: "The Asia-Pacific Science and Technology Innovation Investment Summit is an economic meeting organized by the 'APEC OECD'. It is not aimed at Asian governments, but at enterprises and scientific research institutions in various countries and regions. ”

"The conference lasts for seven days, and during these seven days, all the companies and research institutions that participate in this summit will bring their own R&D products or concepts to the summit to seek promotion or investment or so on."

"To put it simply, it is a 'roundtable sharing' activity around the industry, but the scale of this science and technology innovation summit is still very large, and you can see a lot of interesting things at the exchange meeting."

Xu Chuan's eyes showed a look of interest: "Is there an invitation?" Get me one to see. As for whether to go or not, let's talk about it then. ”

If it was just a meeting of the business world to eat and drink, he would have little interest. However, he is quite interested in this kind of 'sharing' of their respective products or concepts together.

After all, the three stinkers are Zhuge Liang and brainstorming, and sometimes the products developed by some companies may be what they didn't expect.

Fan Pengyue nodded and responded, "Okay, I'll have someone send it to you when the time comes." ”

The other side.

Europe, Cambridgeshire, University of Cambridge.

It has to be said that the power of example is very powerful.

In the case of having an 'incomparably perverted' elder brother, for learning and research, Xu Xiao's small universe is indeed powerful enough.

Although complaining that his brother sent her the paper on the first day of the Lunar New Year, she didn't have time to rest during the Chinese New Year.

But if she didn't volunteer, even if Xu Chuan gave her the paper, there would be every reason to put down her research work and enjoy the holiday on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

After all, the paper is already in her hands, and it is understandable to be a little earlier or late, let alone a special day like the first day of the new year?

This alone is probably something that most people can't do.

After a month of hard work, in early March, despite the fact that the mathematical model in the paper was still under construction and did not get enough experimental data, the entire paper had been completed by her.

At the same time, the building of the Institute of Life Sciences at the University of Cambridge.

At the door of an office, there was a crisp knock.

Behind his desk, Professor Elvis, who was taking care of the work at hand, shouted 'Please come in' without raising his head.

Immediately, when he saw the student who was looking into the office, his expressionless face was stunned for a moment, and then a kind smile appeared.

"What's the matter?"

I have to say that the attitude towards the student in front of her is indeed different from that of other students, after all, her background is not small.

Although biology in general rarely has much to do with mathematics, the person behind her is good at more than mathematics.

Cross-disciplinary research is generally a difficult task, after all, human energy is limited under normal circumstances.

But for the scholar, who was a year younger than his son, interdisciplinary research was commonplace.

Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Astronomy, Materials, Astronautics. There are only a handful of scholars who have spanned so many large fields and have been able to produce top results in each of them, even if you look at the entire history.

Being able to serve as his sister's mentor, for most professors, I'm afraid everyone will take the initiative to have a good relationship.

Standing in the office, Xu Xiao took a deep breath and said slowly: "Professor, about my graduation thesis, it has been preliminarily completed. ”

Hearing this, Professor Elvis seemed to be a little caught off guard, and the whole person was stunned for a moment.

"What does it mean that the preliminary is done?"

Elvis' eyes widened in surprise as he looked at the student.

If he remembers correctly, her dissertation seemed to be about the study of virtual reality technology.

To be more detailed, it seems that a mathematical model is established through quantum theory to solve the problems of dizziness, headache, and motion sickness certificate of bioelectrode chips, right?

It was he who came up with this theory in the first place.

Although he is not very good at mathematics, he is in the field of analog neural signals and electrical signal conversion.

If he didn't have the energy to study this aspect anymore, he wouldn't have told Xu Xiao this idea and idea in detail so directly.

Although most of the time ideas are worthless, sometimes an idea is enough to change an area, especially if you already have some ideas and ideas.

Nodding, Xu Xiao said, "Yes, the preliminarily completed paper has been sent to your mailbox." ”

"Wait a minute, I'll see."

After Elvis replied, he quickly pushed away the document in front of him, touched the mouse and clicked on the mailbox.

Sure enough, in the latest receipt, an email from him, a student, was lying inside.

After clicking on it and downloading the attachment, he couldn't wait to click on the paper.

【Research Theory of Simulated Neural Signals and Electrical Signal Conversion Based on Quantum Theory】

The title of the paper, Elvis, is familiar, after all, it comes from him. After a quick review of the familiar modules that had been discussed, his eyes fell on the modeling at the end.

At first sight, he didn't see the toolkit used to store mathematical models, but the functional analysis, quantum many-body problems, neural network quantum states. and other mathematical concepts and definitions, as well as the mechanistic research on the establishment of this model, completely shocked him.

Putting aside the things he couldn't understand, just picking up those barely understandable mathematical formulas, he could feel how strong the foundation of the mathematician who did this mechanism was.

If nothing else, this is probably done for her by her brother.

Although it is not clear whether this mechanistic study has actually established a complete mathematical model to solve this problem.

But inexplicably, Professor Elvis had a feeling in his heart that this was the answer.

Impatiently, he looked up at the student standing in front of him and quickly asked, "What about the model?" What about the model based on the mechanism of this paper? And the test data, did you conduct it? ”

Xu Xiao: "The model is still being worked, and it may take a while for the math to be tested. ”

Professor Elvis took a deep breath and said, "Remember to show it to me as soon as you make it!" ”

Although he does not deny that it is his idea to build a mathematical model for the work of neural signal simulation and electrical signal conversion from the perspective of quantum mathematics.

But he never denied, or said, that the idea was too difficult to complete.

Quantum theory is one of the two cornerstones of modern physics, and it is itself at the forefront of research.

Although mathematics based on quantum theory is now relatively perfect, it is by no means more difficult than anyone can imagine to simulate neural signals and convert electrical signals through quantum mathematics.

What's more, virtual technology, or VR technology vertigo, is an extremely difficult problem in itself.

The combination of the two directly told him that it might take at least a few years, or even more than a decade, to solve this problem.

If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have told Xu Xiao this train of thought so freely.

It's not just that the value is not high, but it's also because it is completely worth it to use an intractable problem to keep Xu Xiao in her hands for a few more years to study for a doctorate, and to have some relationships with her brother through this line.

However, he never imagined that it had only been two years, and the answer seemed to be in front of him.

Even with her brother's help in the mathematical mechanism, Xu Xiao's own research in the fields of virtual technology, simulated neural signals, and electrical signal conversion alone was somewhat beyond his expectations.

Originally, he thought that this student might have come to gild, and he was ready to let her graduate even if the other party had no academic achievements. Now, it seems that this is not the case.

PS: Just after the Qingming Festival, I was busy, I didn't have time to update yesterday, and I didn't have time to write a leave note (it's already past twelve o'clock when I get home from overtime.,There's really no way),Sorry.,The update owed will be made up this week.。
