Lu Zhou did not think that when he came to the hotel lobby, not only Professor Li was here, but also two old people he did not know.

One of them looked familiar but couldn't name it. As for the other, he didn't know it at all.

With a trace of doubt, Lu Zhou looked at Professor Li Rongen.

"Two are?"

Professor Li is actually very helpless.

Originally, he planned to contact the Luzhou for two days to inquire about the patent authorization. However, he did not expect to come to the vice president of the m conference at the half-way, and he followed the amnesty. .

According to Dean Li, from the morning, he has been calling Lu Zhou, but he can't contact people.

I thought that Li’s dean had helped a lot, and the big man next to him was too big. Professor Li had to help.

As for the patent, it seems that I have to talk again next time.

"I will introduce this, this is the leader of our energy-related departments, Lu Kaimin..."

"What is the top leader, I am from a private person. According to the habits here, I would like to ask Mr. Lu to be fine," said Lu Kaimin without holding any shelves. The professor is famous, and I always hear that you are young and promising. When you see it today, you are younger than the legend."

It was a little accidental by the enthusiasm of the big man, but Lu Zhou was not a person who had never seen the world, and shook hands with him politely.

"Over-reputed, Mr. Lu is good!"

Professor Li continued to introduce: "This is the dean of our institute, Dean Li Shuwen."

"Hello Hello……"

Standing and speaking is not a gift.

After some chills, everyone found a restaurant near the hotel.

The size of this restaurant is not high-end, but it is not low, mainly supplying more local dishes in Boston.

On the road, Lu Zhou learned that President Li came here to attend the m meeting.

As for the head of the relevant department, Mr. Lu Lao, an academic visit applied in the name of a private person, came with President Li.

During the meal, Lu Zhou and Professor Li, President Li and Mr. Lu talked a lot about lithium batteries.

Chatting and talking, the topic quickly came to the issue of patents.

Mr. Lu: "I heard that Professor Lu authorized the negative materials to the beautiful branch?"

Lu Zhou nodded: "Yes, is there any problem?"

"No problem, just a little suggestion, please Professor Lu, don't misunderstand," Mr. Lu smiled. After clearing his throat, he said in a serious tone, "Things are like this, about modified pdms." We are absolutely supportive of all legal rights and interests of film materials in China. We just hope that when you choose a partner, no matter which company you choose, you should not sell the exclusive right to a foreign company."

In fact, it is a helpless move to make such an abrupt request.

Huaguo is the world's largest consumer market for electric vehicles. With the breakthrough of lithium battery technology, it is foreseeable that the domestic lithium battery industry will usher in a booming stage.

The positive electrode is still good to say that the patent for the positive electrode material such as limo2 has long since expired, and it is no problem to use it casually.

But the key to lithium battery technology is the lithium anode material, not the positive electrode. If the patent right of lithium anode material is in the hands of foreign companies, it is undoubtedly the same as the domestic water battery company is stuck in the upstream water source.

The reason why Mr. Lu Lao named foreign companies was not trade discrimination, but the example of compound artemether was vividly seen, and even as a classic case of intellectual property rights, it was placed on the official website of the National Knowledge Bureau to alert him.

It is clearly a technology developed by oneself, and it has to be controlled by people at the door of his own home. This kind of pain is more unacceptable than the skill.

Of course, the relevant departments do not want Lu Zhou to license low-cost or Fan Cui to waive the patent fees of domestic enterprises. After all, the original intention of the patent law is to protect innovation, let social resources flow into the research and development field, and encourage society to create wealth through intellectual property rights.

However, on this basis, the state hopes that he will be conscious of the "irreplaceability" of his own technology and avoid giving international capital the tools to monopolize the domestic market.

After all, the existence of wto, as well as the relevant domestic legal defects, make the domestic anti-monopoly investigation of international capital have no small resistance, whether it is forensics or judgment, and direct administrative intervention may be subject to resistance from other levels.

Compared with the relevant departments, this kind of dialogue conducted in a private capacity is undoubtedly euphemistic.

Lu Zhou certainly can't guess what Mr. Lu meant. Even in the lobby of the hotel, he faintly guessed it.

"You can rest assured that the cooperation between me and Umicore does not involve the domestic market. Regarding the patent authorization in the domestic region, I will authorize all enterprises intending to enter the production of negative materials at a fair and reasonable price. Domestic battery manufacturers are able to obtain raw materials for production at a reasonable price."

"With Professor Lu, I am relieved," Lu Kaimin said with a smile on his face, and immediately said, "Please also ask Professor Lu to rest assured that the country will not let you suffer for such talents!"

"Thinking, this is where the loss is worthwhile." Lu Zhou smiled and said in a relaxed tone, "Mr. Lu will not come to Boston for this matter. It is enough to make a phone call."

Lv Kaimin shook his head: "It is not entirely for this matter. This is an unexpected situation. In fact, the original purpose of my trip was to visit you, and I would like to ask you one thing."

Lu Zhou: "What?"

Lv Kaimin seriously said: "In the white paper on the 13th Five-Year Plan, the high-level instructions for the development of the new energy industry are to increase the battery capacity to 500 wh/kg by 2020. At present, with lithium battery Breakthrough in technology, there is no difficulty in completing this indicator. But the world is also improving, we can't just satisfy this. For the next development strategy, I would like to ask your expert's opinion."

Lu Zhou Khan said: "I am engaged in mathematics. This kind of thing is pointed out by me. I am afraid it is not suitable. If you are involved in the future development strategy of the country, you should consult the engineers in the battery field."

Lv Kaimin insisted: "I don't agree with this. The academic things are free to talk. Who said that the opinions of mathematics professors have no reference value? Just like our collider, Mr. Yang's opinion is valued by the state, Mr. Qiu Lao's The opinions of the country also attach importance. Integrating the opinions of all people and gathering the wisdom of the people can find a suitable road. Regarding the future of lithium batteries, Professor Wang also hopes to enlighten me."

That's what it is, but it's totally different...

Lu Zhou has some helplessness in his heart.

How should he explain to Mr. Lu Lao that although Qiu Chengtong is a mathematician and studies differential geometry, in fact, others are also studying mathematical physics, and he is a half physicist, even if he took a physics award one day. Not surprised. After all, the Karabi-Qiu manifold of the elderly is one of the basic concepts of modern string theory.

Lu Zhou himself, although the "old liar" at the m conference, has blown into the "industry benchmark" of computational materials science, "one of the lithium batteries," but in fact his research does not involve lithium batteries. In fact, most of the calculated data is also a theoretical value.

Asking his opinion, it is better to ask those who made the battery.

However, looking at Mr. Lu’s attitude of seeking hunger and thirst, if he does not say anything, he will offend others.

"...I will just say a few words, don't take it seriously." Lu Zhou thought about it and continued. "In my opinion, lithium-sulfur batteries are a potential in many directions of lithium batteries. In the direction of the li-s system, the theoretical specific energy is 2600 wh / kg. Of course, there are still many problems to be solved, such as the most difficult shuttle effect, and the poor electronic conductivity of elemental sulfur.

Lu Kaimin hurriedly asked: "What about lithium-ion batteries? Is it reliable?"

When Lu Zhou heard this, he immediately understood what he was thinking.

In the forefront of the field layout, everyone's starting point is the same, so it is also the most likely to catch up with the United States.

After all, whether it is lithium, sodium, magnesium or the legendary silicon power, giants such as Sony and Samsung have already laid out the patents in advance.

In such a big environment, even if you develop it, you may not be able to get rid of other people's patent barriers. Choosing a key research and development direction is naturally more appropriate to choose a broad prospect.

Even so, leap-forward research is absolutely not advisable.

Especially the space of lithium space...

Lu Zhou shook his head: "It's very difficult, it's very difficult... That thing is white, and it is proposed at this stage. It is a fraudulent fee."

I have to admit that the energy density of lithium space is indeed very attractive, and it is easier to establish its own core technology than lithium-sulfur batteries that have been studied for many years.

Not to mention the commercial giant ibm, even the former energy minister appointed by Obama and the comrade Zhu Xiwen who won the Nobel Prize in physics were almost fooled when formulating the energy development strategy.

In the face of attractive prospects, the problems faced by lithium-air batteries are even more serious.

This is not just a problem of lithium dendrites, from pure oxygen separation to a series of complex side reactions, any one of which is solved, and it is not just the battery industry.

With modern technology, it is not that I am not prepared to answer this question, but I don’t know where to start.

In fact, Lu Zhou knows clearly that someone will put their papers and names into the ppt and use the concept of lithium battery to defraud the research funding.

Although scientists can't lie, he still hopes that the technology tree in China can take a little detour and spend money on projects that really need money.

Even these projects may lack such imagination.
