Chapter 984 This Is a Story About Erwuzi
The news of the patent binding of wireless charging technology and lithium-air battery technology can be said to have caused a thousand waves in the world.
In particular, the speech delivered by the US Department of Commerce pushed the entire hot spot of the news to a peak.
Just as the new energy sector of the global stock market is fluctuating, everyone is waiting for the response of Xingkong Technology, and everyone is waiting for the result of the "close attention" of the US Department of Commerce.
However, at this precarious juncture, Xingkong Technology released the technical details of the "SH standard" step by step as if it hadn't heard it.
Among them, S is the initial letter of the English registered name of Xingkong Technology, and H is the initial letter of Huawei HiSilicon. The combination of the two is also the abbreviation of Shanghai Listing.
As revealed in this combination of acronyms, this standard is developed by Xingkong Technology, and the chips on the receiving end and transmitting end are completed by Huawei HiSilicon.
These two companies, which can be said to have little direct connection with charging piles and new energy vehicles, have almost monopolized almost the entire charging pile industry and the future of new energy vehicles.
Obviously, Xingkong Technology's attitude of turning a deaf ear to the US Department of Commerce has also caused an uproar in the international arena. The more it swells, the more rogue it becomes like Qualcomm.
Because there are millions of followers on his scarf, Lu Zhou has heard some rumors about this, but he doesn't think there is anything wrong with what the senior sister did.
To deal with rogues, you have to use rogue ways.
The way of hospitality of civilized people is also for civilized people.
If they do not take action, let Tesla and other traditional automakers that are preparing to enter the field of new energy vehicles reach exclusive strategic cooperation agreements, and those who will be excluded from the market are potential Huaguo, such as Beep Charging. business...
The second weekend in May.
In the Space Shuttle Assembly Center, eight huge and long robotic arms are deftly unloading a pile of round tube-shaped equipment from the logistics vehicle. Through the precise positioning of industrial cameras, all the equipment is packaged in a two-person tall Inside the special container for spacecraft.
This is IMCRC's cargo, which will be dispatched to the lunar surface in three days.
As early as a month ago, the lunar environment shield machine jointly produced by Huatie Group and Hangke Group was sent to the Moon Palace space station by Queqiao, and it was carried out in the crater where the lunar hadron collider was located. Deploy precisely.
After a month of construction, with the efforts of the construction personnel stationed on the lunar surface, this shield machine has successfully laid a collider pipeline covered with titanium alloy materials along the inner side of the outer circle of the crater.
Once this cargo, along with new supplies, is delivered to the lunar surface, the IMCRC's first orbit will be complete.
Although this section of the track is only a short 100 meters, there is still a long way to go before the tens of kilometers of track are completed, but since the first step to the finish line has been taken, it is only a matter of time to welcome victory things...
At this moment, standing next to the console of the space shuttle assembly center, looking at the flexible mechanical arm not far away that is as flexible as an octopus dancing in the deep sea, Lu Zhou couldn't help but let out a sound that only he and Xiao Ai could hear. emotion.
"As expected of a quantum computer, it's so awesome!"
Since the automated assembly system of the Space Shuttle Assembly Center was connected to the server of the Jinling Institute for Advanced Study, quantum computers have taken over the automation of the entire assembly center.
If it weren't for the unbelievable reason, the entire assembly center would not even require a single employee. Except for the input and output of products that require manual participation, all production activities can be completed by machines.
Obviously hearing Lu Zhou's emotion, a string of bubbles popped up on the console screen in front of him.
Xiao Ai: [Master, even if it is a quantum computer, it will not be able to exert its full strength without an excellent artificial intelligence to operate it. (')】
Lu Zhou said perfunctorily: "Okay, you are amazing, you are amazing."
Xiao Ai: [Hey, you're welcome, please praise me more. (///ω///)】
Seeing Xiao Ai's mood improved instantly, Lu Zhou sighed silently in his heart.
This silly boy.
It seems that there is still a long way to go before the IQ of normal people.
At this moment, the bubbles on the screen suddenly disappeared.
Guessing that he saw someone coming through the camera, Lu Zhou turned around and saw an acquaintance coming from the direction of the factory door.
"Director Li?" Lu Zhou cast an unexpected glance at the old man walking from the door, and said with a smile, "What wind brought you here?"
Director Li: "I heard that the first batch of pipeline equipment for IMCRC has been completed. I thought that if I leave this work to you, I can't ignore it completely, so I stopped by."
"Just for the IMCRC thing? I don't believe it."
"You guessed it again," Director Li didn't deny it, and after smiling, he put on a serious expression and continued, "I'm really not just here for the collider. I'm asking you, what's going on with you recently?"
Lu Zhou: "What is the situation?"
"Okay, don't be stupid. Regarding the patent matter, the SH standard you have developed. I think the Yankee Ministry of Commerce means to target you. What did you do to make people angry? So much hatred. "
Lu Zhou shrugged his shoulders, made a helpless expression and said, "It's not enough to share the anger of man and god. We are just considering from the perspective of consumers and bundling the two technologies of wireless charging and lithium-air batteries."
Director Li frowned and asked, "I'm also curious, why are you so obsessed with bundling the two patents together? I don't think there's anything wrong with doing them separately."
Lu Zhou didn't explain, just said to himself.
"Whether it is BB charging or CC charging, the receiving end chip of the new generation of wireless charging technology uses the CP7724 system designed by Huawei HiSilicon and manufactured by a partner manufacturer. This system is completely different from the international The current Qi, A4WP and other standards are completely independently designed and formulated by my country."
"In addition, we have prepared a set of spare models for this system that are fully compatible with existing design standards - the Thunder God system. This system is based on carbon-based semiconductor technology. When we release the carbon-based semiconductor Due to technical limitations, it can be launched at any time to replace the existing CP7724 system."
"However, no matter how well our system itself does, there is a fatal weakness, that is, it is difficult to promote. This is not directly related to whether the technology itself is good enough, just like iNPOFi technology is superior to QI technology in terms of transmission efficiency , but in the end they still lost to the QI standard in the market. As for the reason, it’s not because they’re not easy to use, it’s just because Apple chooses QI...do you understand why we do this?”
When a technology is not advanced to an irreplaceable level, it is not only the technology itself that determines whether it can win in the market competition, but also the factors of commercial operation.
The emergence of iNPOFi technology has undoubtedly touched the cheese of the wireless charging alliance, the launcher of the QI standard, and is naturally isolated by the holders of the QI standard and downstream manufacturers in the industry chain.
The final result is also obvious. Even with a series of characteristics such as low electromagnetic radiation, high power conversion efficiency, and weak thermal effect, this technology still lost to his opponents.
After listening to Lu Zhou's explanation, Director Li nodded thoughtfully.
"I understand what you mean...you are planning to use lithium-air batteries to force others to accept our standards."
"How can we say coercion? We didn't force others to use lithium-empty batteries," Lu Zhou continued after laughing, "Besides, since the explosive point of the new energy market is in Shanghai, why should we use other people's batteries? set up obstacles for ourselves. We can go out of our own way, and then let others step on our footsteps to go down..."
This sentence was not thought up by Lu Zhou himself. He usually doesn't have so much time to worry about these business matters.
It's just that occasionally when I'm on the phone with my senior sister, I can always hear her talking similar words in an excited tone. Lu Zhou listened to it, and remembered it. He thought it made sense, so he took it and used it.
"I didn't expect you to have considered such a far-reaching matter," Director Li nodded in admiration, and after a pause, he continued, "But you have to be prepared, Tesla has suffered such a big grievance here. , I'm afraid the Yankees won't let it go."
"I'm not worried about Tesla." As soon as Lu Zhou said this, a touch of sadness suddenly appeared on Lu Zhou's face, "To be honest, compared to the people we really offended, Tesla is just a Just a small role."
Director Li froze for a moment, frowned and said, "Who did you offend?"
"Exxon Mobil."
When the name was mentioned, a trace of nostalgia appeared in Lu Zhou's eyes.
If he knew how to smoke, he would definitely light one to brighten the atmosphere, but unfortunately, he still hasn't figured out what else other than choking people can get satisfaction from that stuff.
"It's also thanks to the fact that I have already returned to China. If I still stay in Princeton, I'm afraid you can find me under the overpass."
"Exxon Mobil seems to be an oil company..." Director Li continued to ask a little confused, "...how did you offend them?"
This is the country of Hua, but Director Li is worried about whether the United States is good or not. No matter how powerful they are in the United States, they have to do business honestly when they come to the territory of Hua.
However, what he couldn't understand was, how did Xingkong Technology get into trouble with an oil company that had nothing to do with it?
Even if the new energy technology impacts the interests of the oil giants, can this conflict compare to the impact of nuclear fusion technology? Didn't see the recent oil price reaction...
"It's not just oil, they also do chemicals, and the scale is not small. As for why I offended them, it's a long story."
Director Li curiously said: "Then tell me, anyway, I'm not busy right now."
"The time has to go back to the summer six years ago... It seems to be five years ago," Lu Zhou said with a sigh, looking at the dancing mechanical arm not far away, "In short, this is a story about Erwuzi ..."
