“I started paying attention to you when brain-computer interface technology was first introduced.”

After using a mobile phone equipped with brain-computer interface technology, I think it's a brilliant invention.

It achieves exactly the effect I envisioned in my brain-computer interface with a mobile phone.

Later, Kechuang Biotechnology launched a composite cathode material of lithium metal and graphene.

This directly led to the birth of the super lithium battery, hailed as an explosive invention in the new energy industry.

But why isn't the super lithium battery technology open to overseas automakers?

I don't believe it's because of limited production capacity; that seems to me to be the official explanation.

Because you publicly revealed your brain-computer interface technology, and there's no distinction between internal and external brain-computer interfaces on mobile phones, I don't consider you a nationalist.

Musk stared intently at Zheng Li and asked.

He did indeed keep an eye on Zheng Li, just as he said. Not to mention that he acquired Kechuang Bio's brain-computer interface technology through certain underhanded means back then.

This kind of problem is somewhat complicated for Zheng Li.

He simply let artificial intelligence answer the question for him.

Given his personality, he couldn't offer a sharp rebuttal; instead, artificial intelligence was able to refute him logically and with evidence, citing sources and providing compelling arguments.

"Science and Technology Innovation Biotechnology has a lot of technology, and it is a normal business practice to license the technology to external parties in different levels."

This is simply a business transaction.

Just like how you would license Tesla's technology to others, but SpaceX's technology has never been licensed to others.

Tesla licenses all its patented technologies to others for free, among which the most frequently cited technologies are energy generation and storage, and battery technology.

Few domestic car companies use Tesla's technology. Is it because Tesla's free technology is not appealing?

Obviously not. Rather, Tesla has specific and stringent requirements for disclosing its technology.

Tesla requires companies that accept its free and open patent policy to refrain from suing Tesla for any patent or intellectual property issues after using its patents.

In other words, all intellectual property rights of car manufacturers, not just those in the field of new energy, are exempt from Tesla's rights.

Musk actually had very good reasons to refute Zheng Li.

He is only the apparent founder and head of SpaceX; in reality, most of SpaceX's technology comes from America.

This is a secret that everyone knows but can't be openly discussed.

Musk argued, "Rocket launches and missile launches are similar in underlying logic."

SpaceX's technology has a certain degree of sensitivity.

Therefore, it is not convenient for us to open to the public.

Zheng Li replied, "The same principle applies; super lithium batteries can give drones a much longer flight time."

With the addition of super lithium batteries, the drone's operating radius and battery life will see a qualitative leap.

Most drones used for weaponry employ polymer lithium batteries.

The polymers mentioned here mainly refer to electrolytes, while the lithium battery technology presented by Zheng Li mainly consists of new cathode materials.

Seeing that Musk was struggling to keep up, the host quickly jumped in to ease the tension, saying:

"Both of you here have your own understanding of the field of technology licensing."

However, this topic is somewhat removed from the theme of our Internet Conference.

I'd like to ask you two, what are your thoughts on the Industrial Internet?

I listened to Chairman Zheng's speech at the opening ceremony this morning. It was very insightful and down-to-earth. I hope to take this opportunity to hear more valuable insights.

"Would Chairman Zheng like to first share his views and perspectives on the Industrial Internet?"

Zheng Li nodded and said, "I still hold the same view: current technology can only support large enterprises in implementing the Industrial Internet."

Although the Industrial Internet has been discussed for about a decade, it was mostly a concept back then.

Ten years before 2026 was 2016, not 2006.

The speed of technological development from 2006 to 2016 seems to have been faster than any other decade.

Zheng Li continued, "Even back then, there were so-called industrial internet projects."

Most of them are just concepts, or rather, similar projects have no economic benefits.

Innovation for the sake of conceptual innovation.

Until recently, artificial intelligence technology has gradually matured, and people's understanding of data has entered a new stage.

Take, for example, an English company we were considering investing in. They primarily use engine test data to train artificial intelligence.

Let artificial intelligence test and tune the engine in the future.

It took more than ten years of data accumulation to achieve a relatively good result, a result that is better than that of human engineers tuning an engine based on experience.

This is the power of data accumulation.

Similarly, the increasingly widespread use of automated trucks in the logistics field in the past two years is also a result of the data accumulated previously starting to take effect.

Therefore, in my view, the next ten years or so will be a period of explosive growth for industrial internet technology.

During this period, the integration between manufacturing and the internet will become increasingly common.

Initially, only large enterprises could afford the costs and implement this system, leveraging the Industrial Internet to achieve certain economic benefits and a higher comparative advantage than traditional manual labor.

However, as this integration process unfolds, the technology will be disseminated to lower levels.

The Industrial Internet will eventually reach the vast number of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), and these SMEs will develop more practical applications.
