Two hours later.
Ye Chen compiled all the technical data on metallic hydrogen batteries and designed the production process.
The next step is to begin trial production.
The raw materials for metal hydrogen batteries are not precious; they are mainly some metal oxides and hydrogen elements, which Mousse Technology has reserves of.
The first sample appeared in less than an hour.
Laboratory building.
All the top executives at Mousse Technology stared in disbelief at the tray in the middle.
A silver battery, about the size of a brick, lay quietly on the tray.
Ye Chen introduced, "This is our next flagship product from Mousse Technology—a metallic hydrogen battery."
"Metallic hydrogen batteries have extremely high energy density; the energy carried in this kilogram is equivalent to more than 1,300 kilowatt-hours of electricity."
"I believe everyone can imagine the impact this battery will have on the energy market."
"This, Chairman Ye, are you really not joking?" An executive asked, his eyes filled with disbelief.
"Of course not. It's normal for people to have doubts about this technology that far surpasses existing technology. Seeing is believing. You'll see for yourselves after you test it with me," Ye Chen said with a light laugh.
As soon as he finished speaking, an employee nearby connected the battery to a battery tester.
Instantly, the number on the tester changed to 1369!
boom!
The people present gasped in surprise, almost instinctively moving closer to the testing device, afraid they might have misread it.
This is absolutely cutting-edge technology; it's far superior to current batteries!
Those present were all elites, and almost all of them could predict how vast the market prospects of this metal hydrogen battery would be!
It's no exaggeration to say that trillions are just the beginning!
"Chairman Ye, can this battery be mass-produced? What about the cost? And its safety?" An executive's eyes lit up as he rattled off a series of questions, all focusing on the crucial points of whether the battery could be launched on a large scale!
"The mass production process for metallic hydrogen batteries is already in place. As for the cost, I'll keep that a secret for now. We'll test the safety performance next," Ye Chen said, waving his hand to signal him to be patient.
This one-kilogram battery has extremely high energy density and energy storage capacity; similarly, if it were to explode, its power would be immense!
Items with this energy density can be used directly as bombs.
If safety cannot be guaranteed, no one would want this battery even if it were given to them for free!
Ye Chen nodded to the employee, who then picked up the battery and conducted tests on it in turn, including overcharging, short circuit, cutting, squeezing, puncturing, and burning.
The metallic hydrogen battery only emitted a little white smoke before returning to normal.
"As everyone has seen, even in the most extreme cases, the metallic hydrogen battery only releases a small amount of energy and does not catch fire or explode. Its safety can absolutely withstand the test."
Ye Chen picked up a fragment of the battery, placed it back on the power tester, pointed to the number 200 on it, and said, "Even if the entire metallic hydrogen battery is damaged, it can still be used."
This technology delighted the executives, who were practically beaming with joy!
They have witnessed a revolution in the energy sector.
And the source is right here!
As participants in this process, they will also reap unimaginable benefits!
"We're all seasoned business elites, what do you think is a suitable price per kilogram for a metallic hydrogen battery?" Ye Chen smiled and posed the question about pricing.
"Such outstanding performance deserves a minimum price of 30,000 yuan!"
"Thirty thousand yuan? Are you kidding me? These days, a power battery with 70 kWh of energy storage costs more than fifty thousand yuan. This is more than 1,300 kWh, so you should add at least one zero."
Several senior executives spoke up, their faces flushed with fervor.
"Let's check the cost first before setting a price, Ye Chen. How much does it cost to produce one kilogram of batteries?" Zhang Peizhen asked cautiously.
"This battery isn't a technological innovation; the raw materials and production costs are less than 100 yuan."
"100 yuan? That's so cheap!"
When the executives heard that the cost was so low, they gasped in surprise!
Then, his eyes turned red, as if he had been injected with chicken blood.
They could already foresee that once this battery hit the market, there would be no competitors.
This enormous market will make the company incredibly wealthy!
Seeing that the atmosphere was right, Ye Chen announced directly: "Metallic hydrogen batteries, 10,000 yuan per kilogram. This is the company's next major product. Everyone go back and prepare for the product launch!"
"Yes, Chairman!"
Everyone answered excitedly, especially the senior executives who were recruited later. They answered loudly, as if they had won the lottery and had stumbled into such a promising company!
Ye Chen parted ways with the others, returned to his office, and dialed Lin Zhenguo's number at the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
"Ye Chen, what do you want now?" Old Lin's hearty voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Look at what you're saying, can't I just chat with you for a bit?" Ye Chen said with a grin.
"You don't come here unless you have something to say. If you have something to say, say it quickly. I don't have time to chat with you. If you have nothing else, I'm hanging up. I'm busy with a lot of things to do here!" Old Lin said with a laugh.
"Please don't hang up yet, I actually have something I'd like to ask you for help with."
"What is it?"
"I'd like to acquire a batch of top-of-the-line experimental equipment. I wonder if Professor Lin has any connections in this area?"
Which specific devices?
"High-precision machine tools, deep ultraviolet lasers, neutrino detectors..."
