"What do you think about the announcement issued by the Deepin Technology Solid-State Battery Laboratory?"

In the Ningde Times Science and Technology Building, Zeng Kequn, chairman of the board of directors in the high-level conference room, looked at the company's executives on both sides of the conference table, and directly brought the topic to the all-solid-state battery that was hotly discussed on the Internet.

As a lithium battery giant that has successfully entered the global market and is far ahead of the world in terms of shipments.

In the Ningde era, there was the title of King Ning.

Especially after the company went public, the market value has been climbing close to one trillion.

To achieve such achievements and scale, it depends more on the trend of the times.

And the more this is the case, the more we must have the spirit of being prepared for danger in times of peace, otherwise we will take action when the crisis arises, and I am afraid that it will be too late in terms of time by then.

In recent years, with the hot lithium battery market, many companies have devoted themselves to the production of lithium batteries.

With battery shipments about to outstrip demand, the momentum of rapid growth will also stop.

In order to cope with the crisis that the company may encounter in the future, they also invested in the construction of a battery laboratory, hoping to achieve a new round of growth by upgrading battery technology. The trend of the situation is controllable, it can be called a step-by-step development, as long as they are given some time, battery technology will definitely usher in progress.

But I never expected that Deepin Technology would change the situation and announce that the all-solid-state battery technology had been conquered in a short period of time.

This left them unprepared and had to urgently convene a core meeting to discuss it.

It is true that they are the world's largest lithium battery manufacturers, but if solid-state batteries can really achieve mass production, the biggest impact and impact will also be their Ningde era.

At this moment, although there are more than a dozen people sitting in the huge conference room, they have different thoughts in their hearts.

It's just that no one can see the current situation clearly, so they don't dare to rashly express their opinions in the face of the chairman's inquiry.

As Zeng Kequn's words fell, the silence in the conference room lasted for nearly half a minute.

It can be said that there is not even a cough.

Hold back.

For fear of being named by the chairman.

It is obviously a high-level meeting of a listed company, but there is a sense of déjà vu that the teacher asks questions in class.

Zeng Kequn's sharp gaze saw everyone's expressions in his eyes, and finally fell on a young middle-aged man on the right hand side in turn, and slowly opened his mouth to throw out questions by name.

"Li Ping."

"You are the company's chief engineer of battery technology, first tell me what you think."

The man known as Li Ping seems to have had this preparation for a long time, but he didn't show too much surprise.

First of all, he sent a copy of the information to everyone present through the equipment on the table in front of him, and then spoke.

"This is the relevant information I have collected about the DeepTech solid-state battery laboratory."

"Let's take a brief look at it first."

Speaking of this, Li Ping paused slightly, and continued when everyone checked the information.

"Deepin Technology's solid-state battery laboratory has been established for a very short time and only two researchers have been published, but the other party announced a few months later to conquer all-solid-state battery technology."

"In addition, this laboratory was set up at the request of Xu Yun, so I didn't care about the company's financial problems at all."

"So I think the other party must have made a new discovery in materials, so I suddenly set up a battery laboratory for research."

After telling all his opinions, Li Ping remained silent again, leaving time for everyone to digest.

Although Xu Yun is only a doctoral student, the achievements he has achieved are difficult for professors to compare, and everyone present will definitely not question Xu Yun's strength if he can achieve this position in the company.

Otherwise, it will only prove your stupidity.

After reading these materials, Zeng Kequn raised his gaze again and looked at Li Ping.

"Do you think that Deepintech's all-solid-state battery technology is real, and they have really achieved low-cost large-scale production?"

Faced with the chairman's inquiry, Li Ping took a deep breath and still insisted on his judgment.

"I can't find a reason for them to spread the false news."

As soon as this remark came out, it was immediately recognized by some people, after all, this kind of thing is not good for Xu Yun and Deepin Technology.

The key is that as a leading enterprise in the lithium battery industry, how could they not have conducted research on solid-state batteries.

It is impossible to achieve low-cost large-scale production of solid electrolyte materials based on the existing theoretical solid electrolyte materials, so they have even given up the research of metal all-solid-state batteries and chose to study sodium-ion batteries for technological breakthroughs.

Just when everyone was deep in thought, and even Zeng Kequn was wavering and unable to make a final decision, some people still raised different opinions.

"Chairman."

"In any case, this is related to the entire lithium battery industry, and we must be cautious no matter what we do."

"Xu Yun is indeed very talented in mathematics, but he can't solve the problem of battery materials by relying on mathematical knowledge alone."

"It's time to determine the accuracy of this matter."

Ning Wang can achieve today's achievement, Zeng Kequn, as the chairman, is naturally courageous.

Seeing that the situation was in contention, he also knew that he had to take steps to take the initiative as soon as possible.

After all, in addition to their Ning Wang, there are also companies such as BYD in China who are paying attention to this matter, and who knows what others will do next.

The thought stayed here, and he didn't delay any longer, and the expression on his face immediately became serious and made arrangements.

"We will try our best to confirm the technology of deepin technology solid-state batteries, and pay attention to the trends of other battery companies."

"That's the end of today's meeting, and all departments start acting as soon as possible."

Because it is an emergency meeting held on an ad hoc basis, unlike the weekly company report meeting, it is announced that it will end immediately after the order is issued.

At this time, others naturally have no objections, after all, the chairman has already spoken.

"It's the chairman."

hurriedly responded, and then hurriedly got up and left.

Meanwhile.

Other domestic battery companies have also taken action and begun to try to contact with deep technology.

Everyone knows what solid-state batteries that can be produced on a large scale represent, and if they can get the technology authorization, there is no doubt that they will easily become the next Ningwang or even surpass Ningwang.

The huge value and market size behind this represents no one is impossible.

Even companies that are not in the battery industry are wondering if they can get a piece of the pie.

As for overseas battery companies, because the influence of solid-state battery technology has not spread in the past, it is relatively calm.

……

And just when the entire battery industry was in turmoil, Xu Yun returned to Jingzhou University the next day.

There was no graduation ceremony for the dissertation defense, and after receiving the doctorate certificate issued by the school, he officially became a true multi-degree doctoral graduate.

The academic qualifications on the dashboard property bar have also been updated to the highest level.

"You prepare these materials as soon as possible, and I will report them quickly."

In the dean's office, the Institute for Advanced Study of Mathematics of Jingzhou University, Xu Yun took the declaration form handed over by Qin Xiangxin, and lowered his eyes to see the content on it, and a slight color appeared on his face.

"Jieqing's application materials?"

He is naturally no stranger to Jieqing, and his full name is the National Science Foundation for Distinguished Young Scholars.

Being selected as an outstanding young person is equivalent to the support of the national special fund for your project.

Because the selection of outstanding young people is only once a year, and the age requirement is to have a doctorate degree under the age of 45, and at the same time have achieved corresponding results in the field of research they are engaged in.

Although he does not have deep technology and does not lack research funds, it is a horizontal topic after all.

If you really want to be elected as an academician in the future, you must participate in the research of national key projects.

And Jieqing is called an academician candidate.

Originally, he was busy receiving awards and researching solid-state batteries during this time, and he forgot that there was such a thing.

I didn't think that the academy would remember this.

His thoughts were thinking about this, when he was suddenly interrupted by Tang Yanshan's voice ringing in his ears.

"You have to pay attention to this matter, there will definitely be no problem with your qualifications to evaluate the outstanding young people, and when the time comes, you will be able to apply for academicians in a few years after making some academic achievements."

"I don't have a chance in my life, and I don't regret that my students can become academicians."

When Tang Yanshan said this, he definitely revealed his true feelings, and Xu Yun could also hear the other party's concern.

Now Tang Yanshan belongs to the second-level full professor, and there are still many people with the title of him, and it is basically impossible to be selected as an academician because of his age.

But Xu Yun is completely different.

At a young age, he has made achievements in many fields, and has also won three authoritative awards in the field of mathematics.

As his own student, he is naturally happy to be a teacher.

"I'll get the materials ready as soon as possible."

After listening to Tang Yanshan's words, Xu Yun replied confidently with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

What he is best at is writing papers, and sorting out application materials is not a problem.

Unlike others who only have one or two achievements, whether his mathematical achievements or participation in lidar projects, as well as intelligent auxiliary diagnosis systems in the field of artificial intelligence, can be used as application materials for Jieqing.

What's more, his shaping fluorocarbon polymer coating material is still listed as a confidential technology.

With these qualifications, let alone declaring the outstanding youth, even if he does not declare, it is not surprising that the outstanding youth is directly selected by him.

And today, the school must have called him over more than just Jie Qing, and then he heard Qin Xiangxin's voice again.

"One more thing I want to tell you, when you become a Jieqing, the school plans to officially hire you as a professor."

"I don't know which college you're going to go to?"

Xu Yun is different from ordinary professors, in addition to his great achievements in mathematics, he can also go to the School of Computer Science and Optoelectronics.

In this way, the situation is more complicated, after all, it is necessary to consider how to give full play to Xu Yun's maximum value.

Therefore, after discussing with the principal Wu Zhongping, he still gave the choice to Xu Yun himself.

Being a professor at Jingzhou University was something that had been determined before, and Xu Yun had nothing to regret, and after thinking about it for a while, he quickly made up his mind in his heart.

"It's better to hang up at the Institute for Advanced Study in Mathematics, and it won't affect the opening of open courses in other disciplines at that time."

"That's fine."

Qin nodded to the news, and just after finishing speaking, he threw out a question again.

"In addition, are you considering taking graduate students, I really hope that you can train a few more geniuses for the school."

At the end, there was already a smile on his face, and it seemed that the picture had come to mind.

Xu Yun immediately shook his head and refused to do so, almost without even thinking about it.

"Let's wait a few years to talk about taking graduate students, and now I'm still a student myself."

Although he will serve as a professor at Beijing University when he is selected as a young man, he is younger than a graduate student, and it is inevitable that he will feel strange to let him take a graduate student to serve as a doctoral supervisor.

What's more, at the moment, his mind is focused on research projects, and he really has no idea of taking students for the time being.

After a few years to be more mature and have more time, he doesn't mind cultivating some excellent industry talents for the school.

Qin Xiangxin would definitely not embarrass Xu Yun in this kind of matter, and directly agreed to Xu Yun's decision.

The matter is basically settled here, thinking about completing Jieqing's application materials as soon as possible, Xu Yun does not intend to continue to stay in Qin Xiangxin's office and waste time.

But just as he was about to get up and leave, he was stopped by Tang Yanshan reaching out.

His lips moved slightly, as if he was embarrassed to say something.

Xu Yun and Tang Yanshan have been together for a long time, and when they see this situation, they can basically guess that there must be something wrong with the other party.

So he simply took the initiative to pick out the topic.

"Professor Tang."

"I'm your student, just open your mouth."

Hearing his students say this, Tang Yanshan also let go of his psychological burden and told the reason.

"If you say this, then I'm not welcome, today is mainly a friend asked me to ask you a private matter, if you think it's not appropriate, you don't have to answer, and you don't have to take care of my face."

"I know Professor Tang, you ask." Xu Yun nodded and replied.

"I know that you kid is researching solid-state batteries, but is the news announced yesterday true or false?"

Qin Xiangxin was also very curious about the question of the two, and also remembered yesterday's news after hearing about the solid-state battery.

Although he is the dean of the Institute for Advanced Study of Mathematics, but yesterday there was so much excitement on the Internet, and it is still on the hot search, I don't know if it is absolutely impossible, he also remembered it when Tang Yanshan reminded him like this, and without waiting for Xu Yun to answer, he hurriedly took over the conversation and echoed.

"Yesterday I was shocked by this incident, your company's solid-state battery laboratory has really achieved large-scale production of solid-state batteries?"

Xu Yun listened to the words of the two of them, and immediately understood that Tang Yanshan's friend should be from a domestic battery company.

After all, the most urgent thing to know about the situation now can only be those lithium battery companies.

It's about the future of the entire company.

There is nothing wrong with using favors.

He naturally has no reason to hide this matter, and it is not a secret that the announcement has been released.

But whether the people behind Tang Yanshan believe it or not, and whether they can seize the opportunity has nothing to do with him.

The thought stayed here, a smile on his face, and then an affirmative answer.

"The company's latest solid-state battery laboratory has indeed discovered new metallic solid electrolyte materials and developed a low-cost and high-efficiency large-scale production method."

"At present, the relevant paper has been accepted by the journal Nature, and it is estimated that it will be published soon."

As Xu Yun's words fell, Tang Yanshan and Qin Xiangxin were obviously stunned for a moment, as if they couldn't believe that Xu Yun had made such achievements in the field of chemical materials so quickly.

It's true that they all study mathematics, but after all, the level is there, and they naturally understand the meaning of this matter.

Thinking that I also have leading overseas technology and can firmly control the global battery market, I can't suppress my excitement in my heart.

After about ten seconds, the two of them took a deep breath and came back to their senses completely.

"If I didn't know you well enough, it's hard to believe that you actually solved the solid-state battery problem."

"Sometimes I want to see what's in your head, and it's like there's a miracle in any field." Tang Yanshan couldn't help but sigh when he took Qin Xiangxin's words.

However, judging from the bright smile on his face, he couldn't be more satisfied with his own student.

"It must have been my luck that I found a more suitable solid electrolyte material and researched it."

In the face of the successive compliments of the two, Xu Yun couldn't help but be modest.

As a result, as soon as the words fell, two pairs of white eyes were met.

"Do you think anyone believes your words, if you can completely solve the technical problem of all-solid-state batteries by luck alone, then the battery industry will not be the world of lithium batteries for a long time."

"Where will I wait until this time."

After listening to Qin Xiangxin's words, Xu Yun smiled, and then suddenly remembered another thing and spoke again.

"By the way, Dean Qin, there should also be a bonus for students or professors who publish papers in natural science journals, right?"

As the world's top journal and magazine, every university will definitely design a grant for incentives.

And the amount of prize money is definitely higher than that of the Annals of Mathematics.

Qin Xiangxin's face instantly lowered when he heard this, and then he sighed and said leisurely: "If you can publish a paper in the journal Nature, the school will award a huge bonus for encouragement, but can you still use the bonus?" The whole person looked a little numb.

Xu Yun smiled when he heard this: "Isn't it that my top labs are too expensive." ”

"Come less."

Tang Yanshan directly debunked Xu Yun: "As far as your solid-state battery technology is concerned, the annual benefits it will bring you will be astronomical." ”

Of course, this does not mean that the school has to pay its debts, and in the end, Qin Xiangxin gave a more suitable solution.

"I think the prize money will be invested in the Xu Yun Award in the name of Jingzhou University, which can be regarded as the support of the school."

"That's fine."

Xu Yun originally mentioned it casually, and it was not bad to be able to get funds for the Mathematics Foundation.

Seeing that everything was over in the next time, Xu Yun decisively left Qin Xiangxin's office, ready to find a suitable place to complete Jieqing's application materials first.

But the next thing happened that surprised him so much that he had to return to the lab first.

"You're saying that the editor-in-chief of Nature is here to interview me and be the cover of the next issue."

"I'll go back now."

Hanging up the call from the company, Xu Yun didn't know what to say.

Originally, the paper was accepted, but he didn't receive an email from Nature Magazine, and he thought that there was something wrong in the middle, but he dared to go directly to Jingzhou to interview him and the solid-state battery?

And for this opportunity to be on the cover of a magazine, it certainly didn't make sense.

Thank you for the 100 coin reward for Nono's body!
