The commercial friction between Dark Technology and Longteng Group is just a small episode in Levi's life.
In fact, except for important meetings, Levi rarely goes to Huigu Science and Technology Park, and at most once every two or three days.
He focused his main energy on another matter.
A very important thing.
Its value is far above that of "Smart Optimization Assistant".
This is what Butler Bowen said, a new project that can bring "tens of trillions" in benefits.
And Levi also has enough funds to start this new project...the initial funds are sufficient.
So during this period, he ran to many places in Tianhai City, waving the money in his hand, and signed three acquisition contracts. He acquired three battery research institutes at a total price of nearly 1 billion yuan and recruited more than 300 R&D talents.
So what on earth does Levi want to do?
"Your Majesty, three small research institutes and over 300 people are more than enough for now."
"The first phase of the research plan can basically be launched."
"Your Majesty, I have already written down the technical principles and implementation path for the Type 1 high-energy battery. Furthermore, given the industrial level of this planet, we should be able to manufacture a Type 1 high-energy battery with an energy density of approximately 3000WH/KG and achieve industrial mass production."
"Once Type 1 high-energy batteries are successfully mass-produced, it will quickly trigger an energy revolution on this planet. Internal combustion engines will be rapidly eliminated, and over the next five to ten years, a new market worth tens of trillions of dollars will be opened up. Our Type 1 high-energy batteries will completely capture this market."
"But I've calculated that the R&D investment for Type 1 high-energy batteries will be approximately 5 billion, which will take about a year. The subsequent battery factory will require an investment of 25 billion, which will take more than two years."
"Your Majesty, if you want to increase efficiency, I suggest that we advance R&D and the factory simultaneously. We should build the factory while we develop, and strive to achieve mass production of Type 1 high-energy batteries within three years!"
"As for the total investment of more than 30 billion yuan, I believe that the Smart Optimization Assistant can bring in all the necessary funds. If that is not enough, I can develop several more software programs during this period and obtain sufficient funds from the Internet."
So funding is not an issue at all.
Levi nodded.
As for the second project planned by butler Bowen and the second technological product he planned to launch, why it was a high-energy battery, Levi felt it made sense after listening to Bowen's explanation.
One, high-energy batteries, can bring extremely rich benefits.
You should know that batteries were just invented on this planet in the 16th century. After more than 300 years of development, the energy density of batteries has not increased much. Lead-acid batteries with an energy density of less than 100WH/kg have been used for more than a century.
Even the large-scale application of lithium batteries has only happened in the last twenty years.
However, the energy density of commonly used lithium batteries does not exceed 300WH/kg.
Of course, driven by the bright future prospects of the new energy industry, countless companies and research institutions have entered the field of battery research and development, trying various materials. The energy density of batteries made in the laboratory has continuously broken new records. Batteries with energy densities of 500WH, 800WH, 1000WH, and even 1500WH/kg have been produced, and records are constantly being refreshed.
However, most of them cannot be mass-produced industrially or have fatal safety issues.
The Type 1 high-energy battery that Butler Bowen took out has an energy density of up to 3000!
It is also highly safe, resistant to high and low temperatures, impact and collision, and has a fast charging speed, and can be used in various scenarios.
The energy density of 3000 is ten times that of commonly used lithium batteries!
It is one-fourth the energy density of gasoline!
But even if it is only a quarter of gasoline, considering the energy utilization rate of 30-45% of gasoline combustion and the energy utilization rate of more than 80% of batteries, in actual use, with the same quality, Type 1 high-energy batteries can achieve half the effect of gasoline.
This is quite remarkable!
This means that electric vehicles in the future can achieve the same endurance performance as long as the batteries they carry are a few dozen kilograms heavier than the fuel tanks of gasoline vehicles.
In addition, electric vehicles have a simple structure and eliminate the need for gearboxes and complex transmission devices, which greatly reduces the weight of the vehicle body. By using the reduced weight and adding more batteries, the actual endurance performance can be better.
Therefore, in the field of civilian automobiles alone, Type 1 high-energy batteries can bring at least trillions of profits.
Of course this is not the most important thing!
Most importantly, Type 1 high-energy batteries can be used in future space exploration.
If Type 1 high-energy batteries are used, combined with high-specific impulse ion engines, installed on a space shuttle and equipped with an electromagnetic orbital accelerator, the space shuttle can travel freely between Earth and the sky relying solely on the energy provided by the batteries.
The cost of space development in the future will be reduced from the current 30,000 yuan/kg to less than 300 yuan/kg, a cost reduction of hundreds of times.
This means that with the development of space tourism in the future, individuals will only need to spend tens of thousands of yuan to explore the scenery of the universe.
Space mining, interstellar power stations, space hotels and even space immigration will all be profitable!
The prospects are endless!
The era of universal space travel has arrived.
And these are all changes brought about by a high-energy battery.
So what Bowen said, that Type 1 high-energy batteries will bring at least tens of trillions of profits, is not an exaggeration at all.
My dear, there is more to this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. It will be even more exciting later!
