"I don't know what will happen when the attribute points reach 30."
"What is the highest level of the writing system?"
Hao Qiang stared at the panel of the writing system, his thoughts drifting away.
After returning to work after the Spring Festival, he reorganized the plans of the group's companies and his own scientific research direction.
Renjian Fireworks Catering Company is expanding according to its established plan, with the goal of reaching 65 stores this year.
Currently, 42 stores are operating normally, and the business has expanded to Hunan and Guangxi provinces.
The motorcycle company's three-wheeled vehicle C1 has entered mass production, and the annual production capacity of its entire series of electric vehicles remains at 230 million units.
Except for a small number of people who are retained to maintain electric vehicle technology, the rest of the company's R&D personnel have been transferred to the new energy vehicle company or other departments of the group.
A year ago, Hao Qiang emphasized to them that electric motorcycles were only transitional products of the group and would eventually be eliminated.
In fact, scientific researchers do not like to develop the same product over and over again. It becomes boring after a long time and is not good for their own growth.
So, they are happy to jump from the electric motorcycle industry to a more advanced industry.
When R&D tasks are idle, the Human Resources Department will arrange more advanced technical training to enhance business capabilities.
As for Galaxy New Energy Company, the super lithium battery has been successfully developed and can be mass-produced at any time.
The research team's current main focus has shifted to optimizing the safety performance and charging technology of lithium batteries, rather than continuing to increase energy density.
Hao Qiang believes that the energy density of super ternary lithium batteries and lithium iron phosphate batteries has reached its limit, and even if another ten years of research and development are invested, there will be limited room for improvement.
Instead of wasting energy in this direction, it is better to start developing new types of batteries, such as lithium metal batteries, lithium sulfur batteries, lithium air batteries, nanostructured batteries, etc.
The theoretical energy density of lithium-sulfur batteries can reach over 500Wh/kg, far exceeding the company's mass-produced NCM811 battery pack (270Wh/kg).
The theoretical energy density of lithium-air batteries is as high as 3000Wh/kg, making it the battery system with the highest known energy density.
If the energy density can really be increased to above 1000Wh/kg, it can change too many industries.
New energy vehicles can easily reach a range of more than 2,000 kilometers, and fuel vehicles will definitely be eliminated;
Flying cars are easily realized; electric aircraft become possible and more cost-effective; the endurance of drones is greatly improved and the scope of application is expanded.
Having said that, the direction of cutting-edge technology is very important. If the general direction is wrong, all the work will be in vain.
Now Hao Qiang does not dare to let the technical team enter the cutting-edge battery field rashly, and decides to continue to consolidate the existing technical foundation for the time being.
Unless there is a very big scientific breakthrough.
After all, it is impossible to rely on Hao Qiang for all technologies.
On the Future New Energy Vehicle Company side, the company has begun manufacturing prototypes of the automotive motors AC150S001 and PM210S001, but the progress of the driving assistance system sensors is slower.
The company has mastered the core components of new energy vehicles - lithium batteries, and there are no major problems with motors and driving assistance system sensors.
The rest is the car system.
Other parts of new energy vehicles can be purchased from outside, but the car computer system is difficult to solve.
For the software part, it is best to develop it independently, as the company will also need a large number of such talents in its future layout.
The hardware core of the car system - the chip - can only be imported.
Hao Qiang's scientific research path is like lighting up a technology tree, gradually climbing up from the most basic fields.
Fortunately, his thinking ability has now increased to 25. If he conducts scientific research himself, he can solve many technical problems and greatly reduce his dependence on technology stores.
……
Han country, Seoul.
LG Chem Co.
The atmosphere in the conference room on the second floor of the headquarters building was solemn.
The company's president, Li Dongxi, is presiding over a crucial strategic meeting. Vice President Jin Lixu, technical director Park Jae-ri and other senior company executives are all present.
LG Chem was founded in 1947 and has a profound heritage.
In the late 90s, the company began to engage in the research and development of lithium-ion batteries, focusing on the battery market for small electronic devices.
In recent years, the company has keenly realized the huge potential of the electric vehicle market and decisively decided to enter the field of automotive power batteries.
In another time and space, LG Chem's power lithium battery technology even surpassed CATL.
However, in this world, the sudden emergence of Future Technology Group completely disrupted their established strategy.
Li Dongxi said in a deep voice: "Recently, the Chinese government has been vigorously promoting new energy vehicles. Their country's automotive battery industry is bound to usher in explosive growth, which will inevitably accelerate the development of our competitors.
Future Technology Group announced an investment of US$55 billion to expand its factory, which is not good news for us.
However, in terms of energy density, our ternary lithium battery can only reach 140Wh/kg in mass production of battery packs, while Future Technology Group has achieved 200Wh/kg and has been widely used in electric motorcycles.
We have to admit that their technical level is far beyond ours.
Do you know what this means for our company?"
A few months ago, when Future Technology Group announced the mass production of NCM622 ternary lithium batteries, everyone at LG Chem was in disbelief.
To this end, the company purchased a large number of NCM622 ternary lithium batteries from China for testing, and the results confirmed the data published by Future Technology Group.
At that time, Li Dongxi said something similar and ordered the company to narrow the technological gap with the other party within half a year.
Currently, LG Chem's laboratory samples barely reach 160Wh/kg in terms of energy density, but after mass production it may only be 145Wh/kg.
What is even more troublesome is that their research and development direction of ternary lithium batteries coincides with that of Future Technology Group, but the key technology patents have been applied for by the other party first.
LG Chem is facing unprecedented challenges. How to re-establish its own advantages in the fierce market competition has become a difficult problem that the entire company must face.
Li Dongxi looked around the conference room and saw that everyone was silent. He turned his gaze to the technical director Park Jae-ri and asked directly, "Director Park, when will the energy density of our ternary lithium battery exceed 200Wh/kg?"
"President, I will do my best!" Park Jae-ri responded quickly.
Li Dongxi shook his head, his tone firm: "No, I need a specific timetable and R&D plan. How long will it take?"
Park Jae-ri took a deep breath and answered cautiously: "If we can obtain key technologies or authorizations from Future Technology Group, one year should be enough.
If we take another approach, it will take at least three years.
After all, some key technology patents for ternary lithium batteries have been applied for by the other party first."
He gave a relatively generous time estimate.
Li Dongxi frowned and said, "Three years is too long, and Future Technology Group may not be willing to sell its technology.
Even if they agree, it will be expensive.
Rather than spending a lot of money to buy other people's technology, it is better to focus on independent research and development."
He has a very clear mind and knows that his competitors are not fools.
Despite this, Li Dongxi decided to give it a try, after all, things are unpredictable.
He pondered for a moment, then gave Park Jae-ri an order: "I will give you two years at most, and you must develop our own high-performance ternary lithium battery.
In two years, Future Technology Group's Pengcheng factory will be put into production, and we are at least two years behind them.
However, I firmly believe that the new energy vehicle market has huge potential, and Future Technology Group cannot monopolize the entire market. We still have opportunities.”
"Yes, we will definitely do our best." Park Jae-ri replied bitterly.
Although some Chinese people have accused Future Technology Group of stealing their company's technology, this statement can only be regarded as a joke.
"Well, so be it."
Li Dongxi knew very well that two years was too short a time and it was unlikely to be developed, but if he put pressure on the scientific research department, maybe a miracle would happen.
