#395 - This is the standard I set!

Lin Chen smiled, holding his phone, "Everyone, I'm currently at the world's first mass-produced solid-state battery factory. Feel free to ask me anything you'd like."

【Master Lin, are you hiring a cleaner? I'm twenty years old, a dance major, have a great figure, and I'm good at warming beds——】

【Master Lin, would you consider donating sperm?】

Lin Chen: "…"

He said, annoyed, "Don't ask random questions, are there any super moderators in the live stream? Please manage this."

Several super moderators quickly left messages to warn them.

Continuing to say nonsense might lead to more than just being muted; account bans are possible.

【Master Lin, is the data exposed by the Central Media accurate?】

Lin Chen smiled and said, "We're not like foreign countries; the things exposed by the Central Media are generally true. Rest assured, I designed this solid-state battery."

"Small-batch manufacturing in the laboratory has been happening for a while now."

Time passed by, second by second.

Lin Chen cleared his throat. "I'll arrange that as soon as possible."

【Master Lin, when will the improved solid-state battery be released?】

Lin Chen: "It should be out next year. But if you can use this one, there's no need to wait for the improved version. This model already has very good performance."

"When installed in electric cars, the actual range can reach 1,200 kilometers, and even after ten years, the range will still be 1,100 kilometers, exceeding most gasoline cars."

There were bosses of traditional fuel vehicle companies in the live stream.

Their heads were buzzing.

Battery companies were collapsing, and their world was collapsing too!

Fuel cars weren't selling well now; how would they sell in the future?

【Master Lin, can you guarantee safety?】

Someone sent a barrage of questions.

Lin Chen smiled and said, "You can rest assured about safety. Even if it's punctured or cut into pieces, it won't explode. Its ignition point also exceeds 1,000 degrees."

"Its physical properties determine that it is safe."

【Master Lin, is it true that the battery degradation is less than 10% after ten years?】

Lin Chen smiled and said, "It will definitely not exceed that. This is also determined by its physical properties. It is a metal-like synthetic material and is very stable."

…

Time continued to pass.

Lin Chen wandered around the factory with his phone, and the people in the live stream could see the factory running at full speed.

Various futures prices were undergoing significant changes.

Like the crude oil futures market, how could short sellers miss such an opportunity?

Although the bulls in the market were desperately resisting, with the exposure of such a major piece of news, massive global funds were shorting, and the bulls' resistance was a bit weak.

In the face of the general trend, some of the bulls will turn to shorting.

The disparity in strength between the two sides will become even greater.

International oil prices will inevitably usher in a wave of rapid decline.

Until many short sellers feel that the price has fallen enough and turn into bulls, the balance of power between the long and short sides will be restored.

Of course, the market is not that simple.

There will also be various national policy factors and other influences in the middle.

Unknowingly, three hours passed.

The first solid-state battery came off the production line.

Lin Chen pointed the camera at the battery: "Everyone, the emergence of containers has made sea transportation more convenient, and our daily life batteries also have uniform specifications."

"But the batteries in new energy electric vehicles today are a mixed bag."

"This situation is unfavorable for enterprise production, consumers, and a huge waste for the entire society."

"We need to change."

There were also many foreigners watching the live stream, and their faces changed. Lin Chen was going to set a standard.

Lin Chen continued: "This battery is 1.2 meters long, 30 centimeters wide, and 8 centimeters thick. It will become one of the standard solid-state battery specifications for future new energy vehicles and many other fields."

"Taking a car of about 2.2 tons as an example, using one such battery can achieve a range of 200 kilometers."

"Automobile companies can design different numbers of battery compartments according to different products. Small cars can design three or four battery compartments, and large cars can design six or even more battery compartments."

"Consumers can choose a non-removable battery pack with one or two batteries according to their needs, and add more batteries if they need to travel long distances."

Many viewers watching the live stream were overjoyed.

If it is really unified, it would be a great thing for consumers.

Having one or two non-removable batteries, with a range of 200 to 400 kilometers, is enough for daily use, and most people don't have much need to travel long distances throughout the year.

Just rent a few batteries when you need to travel long distances.

【Mr. Lin, is this standard a national standard?】

Someone asked in the live stream.

Lin Chen shook his head: "It's not a national standard, it's a global standard that I set. In the future, if global new energy vehicle companies do not adopt this standard, they will not be able to use the world's most advanced solid-state batteries."

"The same goes for many other industries that need solid-state batteries."

【Master Lin is domineering.】

【It's finally our turn to set standards for others. Awesome.】

Many Chinese people in the live stream were overjoyed.

"Arrogant, do you think global companies will listen to you?"

"That's right!"

Some discordant voices also appeared in the live stream.

Lin Chen said indifferently: "I have already applied for all patents for this solid-state battery. In addition, China's production accounts for 80-90% of some of the rare materials used in it."

"I estimate that it will take no less than five years for other countries to bypass the patent and produce products with the same performance."

"And even if they do produce it, the price will inevitably be more expensive."

There were already millions of people in the live stream, and many of them were foreigners, and many of them frowned.

It's not easy to come up with it without a patent blockade.

How much money will it take to invest in research and development for more than five years?

The problem is that the products produced are outdated and the price is high. How can they have market competitiveness at that time?

A certain new energy company abroad.

The boss and a group of company executives watched the live broadcast together.

"What do you think?"

The boss frowned.

Several executives remained silent.

"Speak up!"

The boss deepened his tone and said in a deep voice.

One of the executives said: "Boss, we are in trouble. If we don't design according to this standard, our batteries will be too far behind and it will be difficult for us to be competitive."

"If we design according to this standard, they can choke us at any time."

The boss said: "We also have investments in battery companies, and we also cooperate with some battery companies. How long will it take us to produce it at the fastest?"

Another executive said: "Lin Chen is not lying. It will take us at least five years at the fastest. And we will probably have to buy some patents."

"Our partners should be about the same."

The boss frowned even tighter.

Five years is too long… Will China's new energy companies wait for them for five years?

"Are you saying that we have to follow?"

The boss took a deep breath.

Everyone nodded helplessly. If they didn't follow, they would be dead.
