Chapter 748 - 748 748 The Comprehensive Launch of the New Type of Battery

748: Chapter 748: The Comprehensive Launch of the New Type of Battery 748: Chapter 748: The Comprehensive Launch of the New Type of Battery Time marched on, and Zhao Guang’s research became increasingly clear.

One day, Ye Zhi brought him another piece of news—her technology company had finally been established.

Of course, in keeping with the usual situation, her company wasn’t short of money, so there was really no need to go public.

Moreover, with the national government’s support, there was no need to worry about market issues or being strangled by others, necessitating the selling of shares.

Just to avoid trouble, they still gave a portion of the shares to the government.

In a sense, Zhao Guang’s companies had now become state-owned enterprises.

“They’re about to release products so soon, it seems Li Fugui will have to take center stage.”

Zhao Guang saw the photo at a glance.

Li Fugui was dressed very smartly, looking quite presentable.

But his clearly much rounder figure made him look like a greasy middle-aged man—had he prematurely aged?

This guy, hasn’t his cultivation helped him maintain a normal physique?

Forget it, I’ve warned that fellow already.

“Indeed, they’ve already launched new products, mainly various models of batteries.

This move has surely offended all their competitors in one fell swoop,” Ye Zhi said with a hint of schadenfreude.

“What can they do about it?

It’s their own fault for not being innovative.”

That wasn’t wrong.

Aside from a few special batteries, the battery industry had seen little change for the most part.

And those special batteries had only just reached application standards and had many issues.

By releasing a fully mature product so suddenly, they were disrupting the market.

A glint of amusement twinkled in Zhao Guang’s eyes as he continued reading.

“The government had to intervene after all, which really reduces the pressure.

But it probably means other battery companies will perish even faster.”

“Not just the battery industry, but some countries that rely on lithium ore as their main source of income are going to have headaches too.”

Their batteries used Diamond Sand, a kind of artificially manufactured carbon crystal powder.

This material’s sources could be said to be exceedingly widespread across the world—abundant and even renewable.

After all, burning wood produces carbon elements.

With such performance, it’s likely that lithium ore wouldn’t sell on a large scale in the future.

But what does that have to do with me?

Not many businesses engage in this trade in my country.

Zhao Guang kept reading.

As he expected, many car companies had collaborated with their company and had begun to launch new new-energy vehicles, or electric vehicles, to be precise.

With the charging issue solved, electric vehicles have too many advantages over gasoline cars.

The existing charging stations were usable, and the charging speed was very fast.

If one really couldn’t wait those few minutes, they could simply switch out the battery—it wasn’t impossible to do.

After all, these new batteries were actually not expensive, so keeping a few spare in the car was no problem.

And due to the special composition of the materials, the batteries were immune to exploding or catching fire, even when damaged.

Now not only the automobile industry but other sectors were also flooded with orders, like a flurry of snowflakes.

“All these are great, but there’s one issue—why is it named that?”

Ye Zhi rolled her eyes at him, “It’s all because they conspired together, wanting to create a series.”

Zhao Guang nodded, “I know about that.

What I mean is, ‘steamed buns’, ‘noodles’, and ‘sesame cakes’ are all wheat-based foods.

But what’s with this ‘rice’?

That seems different from the original materials, right?”

Indeed, the new company was named Rice Technology Company, which seemed entirely unrelated to technology.

Ye Zhi felt speechless, overwhelmed with the urge to facepalm.

Is that really where your focus should be?

Does it matter what types of grain foods there are?

Isn’t it because the name itself is too strange?

Furthermore, due to these companies, a peculiar trend had emerged in many businesses.

Indeed, many newly established companies, especially start-ups, actually began using various food items for their names.

It’s said that those in charge of organizing these documents felt dizzy from the constant barrage of such names.

Many even remarked that they couldn’t work properly without snacks in hand, as thoughts of food overwhelmed them.

“As for the name, you can go and ask about it later yourself.

Who told you not to name your company?

But the real question is, are you going to the product launch?

It’s going to be a groundbreaking technological advancement.”

“Especially this phone battery—the largest model can last a month on a single charge, which is truly unexpected.

Whether for live streaming or traveling, this model is the most anticipated by everyone.”

Zhao Guang considered the battery.

It was about the same size as traditional ones, perhaps even a bit larger.

Since batteries were inherently large, people were more accepting of the size.

What he didn’t expect, however, was that the oversized battery, originally just a gimmick, turned out to be the most pre-ordered item.

“I won’t attend the launch event; it’s not appropriate for me to be there.

That’s Fugui’s stage,” Zhao Guang said, uninterested in stealing the limelight, let alone from a friend.

If he went, as chairman, he would undoubtedly become the focal point.

Not to mention, many were aware that he could contact those special individuals, which would definitely sidetrack the discussion.

And he never liked such occasions anyhow.

If he really wanted to show off, he could do as he pleased in his own territory.

Even if he adopted the etiquette of an ancient emperor, it was unlikely anyone would criticize him.

“I knew you wouldn’t want to go.

I’ll let them know.

Is there anything else you require?”

Zhao Guang thought for a moment, then shook his head, “No more requests.

I’m very satisfied with what Fugui has done.

Just keep it up.

You should ask them if they have any requests, then I’ll look into it.”

“Them?

Well, they don’t really have any issues.

It’s just that he seems to want to increase the number of high-tech bladed weapons.”

“Bladed weapons?

Is he planning to sell arms now?”

“More like art pieces, probably merchandise of some sort.

Anyway, nowadays, everything seems to lean towards a martial arts theme.”

Zhao Guang rolled his eyes, unsure what Fugui was thinking.

Not being a businessman himself, some things truly didn’t align with his way of thinking.

“Just let him do as he pleases.

If it really doesn’t work out, the Titanium Alloy processing factory can help.”

No matter what, the material was indeed excellent and very suitable for making bladed weapons.
