Chapter 228 Graphene lithium battery of unknown model!
After watching Lao Cai physically cut the [lithium ingot] in his hand into lithium sheets shaped like a mobile phone, Chen Jue's face showed a thoughtful look.

"Since 'Infinite Water' can prevent violent reactions, wouldn't it be okay to use an underwater cutter instead?" Chen Jue thought.

Because in the mechanical processing industry, there is a special type of job that requires underwater operations.

For example: underwater welding, underwater cutting, etc.

Some pipes buried underwater leak and need to be repaired, which requires this type of special work.

In addition, some advanced manufacturers with special requirements for processes also have the ability to process under air-isolated conditions.

For example, the famous immersion lithography machine works in an environment filled with water.

Compared with using hand saws for basic processing, using the power of industrial machinery can increase processing efficiency by hundreds of times.

Of course, after completing the first step of cutting [lithium ingots], Lao Cai started the next step.

It opened the graphene powder can and sprinkled the powder evenly on the piston head of the [lithium battery piston] that was pointing vertically towards the sky.

As for the top, there is also a downward-hanging [lithium battery piston].

As the circuit started, there was a creaking sound and the two piston heads pushed towards each other.

The graphene powder sandwiched in the middle was squeezed into a thin film by the two pistons of the MC rule system as Chen Jue's eyes widened.

"Fuck...fuck!"

"Can you still play like this?"

Chen Jue was shocked by this amazing operation.

He had never expected that this [lithium piston] could be used as such a sophisticated processing equipment.

Under the physical push and squeeze of the regular system, plus the "absolutely smooth" left and right planes of the piston heads, the powder sandwiched between the two [lithium battery pistons] can be processed into an equally "absolutely smooth" flat film.

Moreover, the dimensions of the graphene film that was pushed out are so large that it is difficult to measure its thickness with the naked eye without an ultra-high magnification electron microscope or the semiconductor industry's "thin layer thickness measurement technology."

"Awesome! You are worthy of being an expert in redstone technology!" Chen Jue sighed in his heart when he saw this.

Lao Cai continued processing, stacking the stamped graphene film on the outside of the cut [lithium ingots] in a 1+1 sandwich-like ratio.

A very simple "graphene lithium battery" was thus produced.

Chen Jue put on electrician gloves, picked up the battery and took a look at it, and a line of MC subtitles appeared.

[Unknown model of graphene lithium battery: man-made product, solid-state battery with ultra-high energy density and charge and discharge characteristics, durability??? /???]

“It’s actually a solid-state battery!”

Chen Jue looked at the subtitles and was so shocked that he leaned back.

If this thing were wrapped in a layer of aluminum alloy or steel plate metal shell sprayed with insulating paint, it would definitely fool a lot of people when it was put on the market.

However, since it is a power battery, the most important thing is its energy density and the upper limit of charge and discharge cycles.

So after making this [unknown model of graphene lithium battery], Chen Jue took it and rushed to the neighboring Hui Province on a private plane overnight.

Because there is the NIO power battery manufacturing factory that Magic Cube Group just acquired, which has the equipment and environment to test this battery.

……

In Hefei City, Xinqiao Intelligent Electric Vehicle Industrial Park is home to a large number of enterprises and factories related to the upstream and downstream industrial chains of new energy vehicles.

The signboard had just been taken down and replaced, and the factory was renamed as Magic Cube Automotive Power Battery Factory, but now the lights were brightly on.

It's not that the business is so busy that we have to work in three shifts 24 hours a day.

And just now at around 2 a.m., the chairman of the parent company sent a notice saying that he wanted to temporarily borrow the factory's battery tester to test an experimental sample that was being secretly developed.

In order to welcome the arrival of the new boss, the factory director Wang Xinrong and the head of the technical research and development department Chang Yuhao of the Magic Cube Battery Factory got up from bed at night and summoned all the employees who were half asleep in the factory back to the workshop.

"The car is coming!"

"It is said that the chairman is very decisive in his work, so everyone should cheer up!" Factory Director Wang Xinrong reminded, and everyone who was lining up stood up straight as if they were standing in a military posture.

As a business car drove into the factory, Chen Jue, who had taken an hour to get there by supersonic private jet, quickly got out of the car with a silver suitcase in his hand.

"Which one is Director Wang?" Chen Jue frowned as he looked at the line-up in front of him. Wang Xinrong greeted him with a flattering look on his face: "Hello, Chairman, it's our first meeting! I am the Director Wang Xin..."

But before he could finish his words, Chen Jue immediately scolded him, "Director Wang, in the name of the chairman of the Magic Cube Group, I now announce that you will be suspended from work on the spot, and all positions and permissions in the power battery factory will be suspended! The group's human resources department will officially notify you after dawn."

As soon as these words were spoken, the employees who were still queuing up to welcome and applaud fell silent!

Everyone was dumbfounded!

Wang Xinrong himself turned pale, his lips trembling as he said, "Director Chen... why...why did you suspend me?"

Chen Jue smiled coldly: "Why? Look at your colleagues behind you! Didn't I say on the phone that only one or two technicians would be needed to cooperate with me in the inspection? As a result, you, an old coin holder, let more than 1 employees of the battery factory stay up late to do these formalities to flatter me. What's the point?"

"They were supposed to sleep and rest at night to get enough energy for the next day's work. Now you messed them up and they have to work a shitty job the next day!"

After being scolded by Chen Jue, Wang Xinrong felt a chill on his back.

When he turned around, he saw that more than 300 employees were looking at him with strange eyes and staring at him.

There were even a few people who were in a bad mood when they woke up, and they were already cursing in the crowd: "Damn it! It turns out that we have all been sold out by the factory director!"

"Boss Chen! I'm reporting the factory director for corruption and colluding with outsiders to resell the factory's raw materials!"

"I also reported him for playing tricks on the factory cafeteria and convenience store, not allowing us to go out of the factory to consume. We can only go to the store run by his relatives..."

For a moment, the atmosphere in the factory was very excited. Several strong young men came up and lifted up Wang Xinrong, whose legs were trembling and weak.

Upon seeing this, Chen Jue immediately comforted these employees, saying that he hated formalism the most. He also called Li Feng, the head of the group's inspection team, and asked him to come the next morning to investigate the corruption in the battery factory.

After all, it is a new factory just acquired from NIO, and its internal atmosphere is far inferior to those of several branches within the Magic Cube Group that he founded. It must be vigorously rectified.

……

After taking some time to comfort the employees who were woken up in the middle of the night, they were allowed to go home and back to the dormitory to rest.

Afterwards, Chen Jue carried the suitcase and entered the battery testing workshop of the factory under the guidance of Chang Yuhao, the head of the technical R&D department.

"Mr. Chen, our factory's equipment is still very advanced. They are all new models purchased last year."

"Old guy Wang Xinrong got into the factory by relying on his connections, but he didn't dare to embezzle money from these R&D and testing equipment." Chang Yuhao pointed to several pieces of testing equipment and introduced them.

The company has a wide range of testers for battery capacity analysis, battery module inspection, battery pack aging, etc., which can provide accurate graphs and parameters for current, voltage, capacity, internal resistance, charging, discharging temperature, and battery cycle life.

Chen Jue nodded with satisfaction, then opened the box, took out the graphene lithium battery and said, "Help me test the performance of this battery, and be quick!"

"Okay, Mr. Chen." Chang Yuhao nodded and went online to do the test without even bringing an assistant.

As soon as Chang Yuhang took over the heavy battery that was wrapped in a black film, his face turned as if he had seen a ghost: "This... Mr. Chen, where are the electrodes of this battery? Why are there no electrodes?"

As the head of the R&D department of a battery factory, Chang Yuhao has very rich work experience.

Before joining the NIO battery factory, he had worked in relevant departments of BYD and CATL for more than ten years.

There are countless battery samples that we have taken over.

But this was the first time he had seen a strange battery like this one without graphite electrodes.

Seeing the other party's face full of question marks, Chen Jue coughed twice and said, "What you are holding is actually the battery core of a solid-state battery. There is no electrode."

"What! It's actually a solid-state battery cell?!" Chang Yuhao was so scared that his hands trembled.
If it was a liquid or semi-solid battery cell, he would have thrown it away long ago.

Because if that thing wasn't wrapped in an insulating shell and was held in the hands of a human with body temperature, it would be like a fucking bomb. It wouldn't even need impact heating and might explode on its own.

How could it be as stable as the graphene lithium battery in his hand?

However, when he thought about how his chairman came to test the battery in the middle of the night, Chang Yuhao secretly wondered if there was something wrong with the origin of this battery.

"Could it be that some corporate spy got these experimental products from those big battery manufacturers?"

"Several companies are researching solid-state batteries, but I haven't heard of any of them producing them in mass production!"
