Chapter 525 Lithium Battery Patents

"Let Zhou Jianren find a way to contact Rolling Stone and buy its shares. In the same principle, if you can buy all of them, you can buy them all. If you can't buy them all, you have to hold more than 67% of the shares."

Huang Ying quickly wrote it down in his notebook.

Su Chen went on to say: "Besides, if the acquisition is not possible, it is necessary to form a record company in the shortest possible time, even if it is a small company."

"Boss, I've recorded it." Huang Ying said.

Su Chen nodded: "There are only these two things, let's go back to the company now."

After returning to the company for a stroll, at night, the big boss arrived, and Cao Jiaxin and Bernice found a nearby famous Jinfeng Restaurant for dinner.

This restaurant opened very early and has been stationed in New York's Chinatown since the 70s.

Because she was worried that there would be no place, Cao Jiaxin called to order food before coming here.

After walking to the restaurant and notifying their names, someone took them in and found a good seat.

Sit down and food is brought out in no time.

When he was about to drink, someone suddenly came over, and a man stepped over: "Grace, Bernice, hello."

"Hello, Mr. Zheng." Cao Jiaxin stood up and greeted her.

"Welcome to come here for dinner." Mr. Zheng said with a smile: "I'm really sorry to disturb you rashly. It's just that I haven't seen you coming here for a long time, so I came to say hello. I want to eat and drink tonight, Jinfeng dinner."

"Mr. Zheng, how did this happen?" Cao Jiaxin said, "We just had a small dinner together, and we dare not work for Mr. Zheng."

"Sure, I've been thinking about inviting you nearby Chinese to dinner, but I don't have much time, so Jinfeng will treat you to this meal tonight." Mr. Zheng smiled, then turned to Su Chen and said, "Su Hello sir, we meet again."

"Hello, Mr. Zheng, I have been thinking of thanking you for speaking up when I had an accident, but I didn't have much time." Su Chen reached out to shake his hand: "When I return to Boston, I will find time to invite you to get together. I hope Mr. Zheng will not refuse."

This Mr. Zheng is Zheng Zhonggao, an American Chinese social activist and the chairman of the Fujian Association. He has many deeds. When Su Chen was injured, he went to Boston to see Su Chen, and he also attended the wedding.

"It must be. Mr. Su's career in Hong Kong is in full swing. I have even heard about it in the United States." Zheng Zhonggao said with a smile: "I just didn't expect you to come to New York suddenly. If I knew it earlier, I would definitely Bring someone to meet you at the airport."

"Mr. Zheng, you are exaggerating." Su Chen said with a smile: "I have some things to deal with when I come to New York. I will return to Boston tomorrow. I am too busy to visit you. Please forgive me."

Zheng Zhonggao also smiled: "Business is busy and you need to run back and forth, so I won't bother you. I wish you a pleasant meal."

"Mr. Zheng, go slowly."

After Zheng Zhonggao left, everyone began to eat, and naturally they did not discuss business affairs after eating.

When I was full and ready to pay, I was notified that the meal was free.

Cao Jiaxin didn't insist anymore, and asked the waiter to help thank Zheng Zhonggao, and then left.

What should be notified and what should be arranged has been explained, and Su Chen has nothing to notify now, so he returned to the hotel to rest.

Going to the hotel and asking Huang Ying to inform Zhou Jianren to contact Rolling Stone, nothing happened.

Rest overnight, and depart for Boston the next day.

……

After a bumpy journey, I returned to Logan International Airport after a long absence for several months.

After taking a taxi back to Back Bay, Miranda and Avril Lavigne had already gone to class, and the former little secretary had also been transferred to work in Jinbaobain.

To be honest, he hates traffic stars very much, but if he recruits actors in advance as before, but fails to release works, and just let these artists learn, then he is really a trainee who has practiced for two and a half years.

After a brief rest, go to the Tiangong laboratory first.

Professor Goodenough was surprised to see Su Chen: "Dude, when did you arrive in America?"

"Professor, I just arrived yesterday, how is our progress now?" Su Chen asked, "Is there any major breakthrough?"

Gudinav hurriedly pulled Su Chen into the laboratory, pointing to something that looked like a battery.

Excitedly said: "Dude, you came just in time, I just wanted to tell you, didn't you tell me that before, we discovered another crystal structure - olivine, which is lithium iron phosphate.

The lattice stability of lithium iron phosphate is good, and the intercalation and extraction of lithium ions have little effect on the lattice, so it has good reversibility. Under the condition of 100% DOD, it can charge and discharge more than 2000 times, but there are also shortcomings. The electrode ion conductivity is poor, it is not suitable for charging and discharging with high current, and it is hindered in application. "

"Then, according to what you said, we coated lithium iron phosphate with [-]% carbon, which effectively solved the problem that lithium iron phosphate material has poor electrical conductivity and is not suitable for high-current re-discharge.

After being coated with carbon, the lithium iron phosphate battery has good electrical conductivity. I have entrusted Miranda to apply for a patent for the carbon-coated lithium iron phosphate technology. "

"Professor, you are too great." Su Chen repeatedly said: "I must hold a celebration banquet for you, and the guys in the laboratory will also attend together!"

Sure enough, as long as the direction is given, it will naturally be easier to explore than before.

And as long as the patent is applied for before the Japanese Benzene people, then the Japanese Benzene people will have to pay patent fees for themselves in the future.

Professor Goodenough said with a smile: "No, buddy, you should be the one who is great. It is because you gave us the direction that we avoid detours. If we rely on our own groping, it will probably take a few years. Next, our research direction is polymer lithium battery."

"According to what you said, after making the electrolyte into a solid state, the lithium battery can be made lighter and thinner, and you also gave a solution last time, so this is what we will do next."

"Okay, then I'll leave it to the professor. It's still the same sentence. If you want someone to give, you need money to give money." Su Chen said: "Also, if you need anything, you can tell me."

"Really?" Goodenough hesitated and said, "Man, the Cockrell School of Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin wants me to be a professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Electrical Engineering, but don't worry , I'm still thinking about it."

Su Chen couldn't help pondering, and after thinking about it, he said, "Professor, I think if you go to university to take classes, you won't have so much time to help me do research. Why don't you help me research lithium polymer batteries first?"

He was worried that there would be conflicts with the University of Texas in the future. If the University of Texas shamelessly took the professor's research results as his own, wouldn't his work be in vain?
"And it may not be so convenient for you to go to the University of Texas to attend classes. Maybe the University of Texas may not even support your research. In this laboratory, you have the final say on everything." Su Chen said.

Professor Goodenough thought for a while and said, "Indeed, then I'll continue to conduct experiments in your laboratory, and first produce the polymer we want."

"Okay." Su Chen nodded: "I hope we can succeed sooner."

Goodenough said OK, and then invited Su Chen to visit the laboratory.

Su Chen couldn't understand the things in the laboratory, so he took a tour around, encouraged the experimenters, and said that since everyone had figured out that thing, they would be rewarded.

Because everyone was busy, he didn't waste too much time, and left after saying goodbye to Gudinav.

If it was someone else, he wouldn't mind doing something, but for this old man, he really respected him, and he had signed an agreement with the professor before, and the things made in the laboratory belonged to the laboratory.

On the way back, Su Chen was a little excited. He thought it would take a while to get the lithium battery, but he didn't expect this day to come so soon.

With this thing, in the future energy market, I can take the lead.

At that time, the major electrical appliance manufacturers will still have to look at their own faces.

As soon as they got home, Miranda and Avril came back from get out of class.

When they saw Su Chen, both of them were very surprised, because Su Chen didn't tell them about coming to America.

After being gentle, Miranda said: "Su, I don't know if you have been to the laboratory. Now the laboratory has produced lithium batteries, and I have also applied for an international patent. Next, I will start working on the designated The handling of the grant examination of international applications and other related matters by the designated country or selected country.”

"Okay, the first country is the United States, then Japan, and then other countries have to apply." Su Chen said: "This matter must be settled as soon as possible, and at the same time send people to apply."

"OK!"

……

Because I haven't seen Su Chen for a long time, the two of them pestered him all night.

The next day was the weekend, and the two of them had no class, so they were at home with Su Chen. Just after they had had breakfast, the phone rang.

Avril ran to answer the phone: "Hello...Brian? Su just happened to be at home, you can talk to him, okay..."

After hanging up the phone, he ran back to Su Chen: "Brian said he has something urgent to call you, and he will come right away."

Not knowing what was urgent about Brian, Su Chen waited for his arrival at home.

About half an hour later, Brian came over. When he saw Su Chen, he first gave him a bear hug, and then said, "Dude, you came just in time. I have something to discuss with you."

"You said."
