After Luo Jia left the software center, she went to the laboratory to take a look.

Most of the hardware corps went to Australia and enjoyed the free holidays provided by the company.

But not everyone is in the mood to travel, especially the Chemistry Department, which undertakes the heavy responsibility of photoresist research and development, all of them choose to stay and work overtime.

Judging from the current progress, the photoresist project is only one step away from the breakthrough.

It’s not easy. Science requires accumulation. Luo Jia uses the knowledge he has mastered to constantly touch indirectly, but theory is one thing, and it is another to really make the product.

In addition, cost and production supporting issues need to be considered. After all these problems are solved, they will be mature products, otherwise they will be just samples in the laboratory.

It shows that the project is finally over, and Luo Jia finally has some free time.

He went home to have dinner every day, spent the night at home, and chatted with his parents. During the day, he would find the old captain named Kong to learn about navigation.

Mr. Kong was transporting 10,000-ton dry bulk cargo ships on China Overseas ships, and he was very capable of competing with Luo Jia's small fishing boat.

In addition, he has an apprentice, named Ma, and is not very old. Luo Jia calls him Brother Ma, who is the second lieutenant of the old man, and he also comes to help during the holidays.

Working on a boat on the ocean often takes half a year to go to sea for half a year to rest. Luo Jia paid for them to teach, and they were very happy to earn some extra money and drove over.

Navigation is a very complex system. Even when driving a small boat like a fishing boat, you must learn to look at the charts, be familiar with ocean currents, understand maritime satellites and radios, learn boat exercises and avoidance, understand the meaning of command systems such as wind balls and signal flags, and master the safe operation of entering and leaving the port.

Luo Jia learned very quickly. Since receiving the alien heritage, his body has undergone some magical changes. He now only slept for three hours a day, but he is still full of energy.

When he was in school, Luo Jia liked to play basketball and now he has completely given up exercising, but his physical condition is getting better and better, his brain thinking is getting faster and faster, and his understanding ability and memory have increased significantly.

An Ran is the most awesome genius in the company, a weirdo who goes to college at the age of twelve.

Whenever he discusses a problem with Luo Jia, others can't get into it. The pace is too fast. From one problem to another, their thinking jumps wildly, as if two high-speed computers are fully powered, and they start an amazing brainstorming, becoming a unique landscape in the company.

It can be seen from this that Luo Jia's current IQ and thinking ability are at least at the same level as An Ran.

Luo Jia estimated that it might be that the golden dome had done some physical optimization for him. After all, it was not easy for them to cross the vast sea of ​​stars to find a inheritor. If the knowledge has not been transmitted yet, Luo Jia died first, who should I ask for?

After learning a few sailing classes, Mr. Kong told Luo Jia that he could go to sea alone in the future. If he encountered any problems, he would call Brother Ma and him.

Immediately the next day, the hardware army reopened. After returning from Australia, they seemed to be a little tanned, but they were all full of energy.

Without Luo Jia's instructions, the middle-level and above leaders of the company gathered in the conference room, and then went to Luo Jia's office to find him safely.

"Everyone knows that every time you ask us to go out and play, it is because there is an important work after we come back. Look, we are all ready. What should we do next? Please give me instructions!" After An Ran said that, he sat with the others and stared at Luo Jia.

Luo Jia smiled, "Since that's the case, then I'll just say it. Next, we'll chew a hard bone!"

The straight men became restless and guessed which field they were going to enter.

Luo Jia remained silent and reached out to take it out in her sweatshirt, took out a small silver cylinder and placed it in the center of the conference room.

Boom ~

In an instant, the crowd was excited, the straight men's eyes were red, and their muscles were tight, so they could clearly hear that their breathing was aggravating.

This is just a little thing, but everyone knows the importance of this little thing deeply. If integrated circuits are the heart of the technology industry, then this little thing is the blood of technology!

Luo Jia said lightly, "This is a 18650 lithium cobalt oxide power battery produced by Panasonic. It is currently one of the strongest models in the world. It can withstand continuous discharge of 30a and has a capacity of 3400 mAh."

"Tesla's p85 electric vehicle is made of this type of battery. It uses a total of 7104 batteries, fused into 74 and 96 series of battery packs, with a voltage of 345.6 volts, a capacity of 251.6ah, and combined with the powerful power of the 310kw motor, Tesla quickly amazed the whole world as soon as it was launched."

"In the Tesla P100 and P120 models launched later, and even Tesla electric trucks, they used a stronger Panasonic 21700 lithium cobalt oxide battery."

Speaking of this, Luo Jia stopped and glanced across the conference room.

"To be honest, I have really thought about this project for a long time. The battery is a hard bone. How hard is it?"

"Since the invention of lithium batteries in the early 1990s, after decades and generations of scientists' efforts, almost all the solutions that can be studied have been studied, but so far, there has been no major breakthrough."

"Whether it is lithium iron phosphate, lithium cobalt oxide, and lithium manganese oxide, let me say that, all the batteries manufactured in the world, from lead-zinc batteries to ternary lithium batteries, cannot support the future of the industry."

"You all know that I have a Tesla X-type. To be honest, that car is simply terrible, slow charging, poor battery life, and when the weather is cold, the power starts to shrink severely."

Luo Jia said, taking out the whiteboard that had been prepared long ago and writing on it with an ink pen.

Everyone immediately understood that Mr. Luo had to start serious.

He has always been like this. Whenever the company enters a field, he will conduct comprehensive investigations and research on the industry. As a leader, perhaps no one can do better than Luo Jia.

When Luo Jia finished writing the list of the top 20 lithium battery industry, everyone laughed.

Because on this list, Samsung and LG names appeared again, ranking second and third in the world respectively.

It turns out that the enemy is narrow. No matter which direction Xingchen Technology develops, it is inevitable to fight with them.

However, this also shows from another aspect that Samsung Group's strength is too broad. This super giant, which accounts for more than 20% of South Korea's GDP, has a very wide business scope.

The number one ranks first is of course Panasonic. In November 2009, Panasonic acquired Sanyo, forming a factual monopoly in high-performance batteries. Others, whether Korean or Chinese manufacturers, are followers of Panasonic, and there is a big gap in technology.

The list of the top 20 was quickly finished, and everyone was excited because among the top 20 giants in the industry, my country actually accounts for as many as thirteen companies! The full row of names is really exciting to see!

Swish ~

But no one expected that Luo Jia waved her hand and wiped out the list she had just written.

"Just learn about this thing, because they are all beings that are about to be killed by us." Luo Jia said very domineeringly.

Laughing came from the conference room, and Luo Jia's inadvertent humor eased everyone's originally nervousness a lot.

As Luo Jia continued to write, more and more professional content began to appear on the whiteboard.

"In a battery, there are four major raw materials, namely positive electrode material, negative electrode material, separator material, and electrolyte material." Luo Jia said quickly, "The cost of positive electrode material accounts for 46% of the total battery cost."

"In 2015, the three major players of positive electrode materials were South Korea's L&F, Neon Riya, and Neon Youmeike. However, in 2016, my country's Shanshan Energy had surpassed the three giants of positive electrode materials and became the new world's number one."

"Doesn't it sound familiar?"

"That's right, it's the Shanshan who made shirts. They not only made shirts and ties, but also big players in the new energy industry. I don't know how to describe this industry. There is no way. Maybe this is the characteristic of Chinese companies. As long as they have the potential to make money, they dare to play anything."

"Panas battery is currently the strongest in the world, but Panasonic also wants to purchase positive electrode materials from suppliers like my country's Shanshan Energy and Xiamen Tungsten Industry. I can understand that Xiamen Tungsten Industry's positive electrode materials are made, but Shanshan, a shirtmaker, also went to insert it and even inserted it into the largest one, ah."

After hearing Luo Jia's words, laughter broke out in the conference room.
Chapter completed!
