Chapter 583

The sound of rushing water in the bathroom disappeared, and School Beauty Song came out wearing a shower cap, wiping the water droplets off her arms, "I'm going shopping with Jiahui tomorrow, noodles?"

"Mm, I cooked a small half-bowl for you; you haven't eaten properly all day."

Xu Qingzhou slurped his noodles, felt something was off, and asked suspiciously: "Tomorrow is Tuesday, isn't Ding Jiahui working?"

"She took annual leave and has been resting at home these past few days."

"What about Guo Ziyang?"

"He went to Rongcheng on a business trip."

As she spoke, Song Yao walked over; the tomato and egg noodles smelled fragrant from far away. She picked up her chopsticks, a sense of guilt rising, "Eating noodles late at night..."

"Then give them to me." Xu Qingzhou made a move to take them.

"I'll bite you."

Song Yao glared, with the posture that if he dared to reach out, she would dare to bite him.

Xu Qingzhou shrugged and continued slurping his noodles; he had heard Guo Ziyang say last time that there was some big project and he planned to slip away after finishing it.

One project could earn hundreds of thousands...

Although it was 996, it was solid money.

In the past, after Fatty Guo graduated, he only entered a small factory and worked his head down for several years before coming out.

The change was quite significant.

This might be what the ancients meant by "birds of a feather flock together."

When the people around you are excellent, you naturally improve in a good direction; unlike before, Guo Ziyang had already pulled off several decent projects during his undergraduate stage.

After a while, seeing Xu Qingzhou finish eating, Song Yao said: "Leave it, I'll wash it; you hurry up and take a shower, you smell like alcohol."

Xu Qingzhou nodded; fed and watered, plus a shower, he felt comfortable.

A few minutes passed.

Xu Qingzhou came out of the bathroom and lay on the sofa looking at Weibo; the research institute's unveiling ceremony had just ended, and there were already corresponding news reports online.

He clicked on an interview video.

Reporter: "Professor Xu, why did you choose lithium dendrites and the shuttle effect as your targets for conquest?"

Xu Qingzhou: "Because lithium-sulfur batteries are the core of future energy competition, and these two, especially the shuttle effect, are crucial to the development of lithium-sulfur batteries."

There were quite a few entries related to him online.

"Xu Shen, if I'm not mistaken, this person is you."

Someone tagged Xu Qingzhou under the official media account of the Youth Daily.

"No way, while I'm still struggling in the Canyon of Kings, my peer has already become the head of a national-level research institute?"

"Lithium dendrites and the shuttle effect... personally, I think it's unreliable; this thing is simply not something current technology can handle."

"Lithium-sulfur batteries... this Professor Xu is a bit like a layman directing an expert; within ten years, lithium-sulfur batteries absolutely cannot become mainstream."

"Worthy of being my male god, even his empty promises are so handsome!"

"Xu Shen is awesome!"

"Clearly he's just scamming national funding, right? Lithium-sulfur batteries have no technical feasibility at all; solid-state batteries are the future!"

"Fart, he invested billions of his own money into it; does he need to scam national funding?"

The various information online was still the same as before, noisy and without any new ideas.

Just as Xu Qingzhou was lying leisurely on the sofa looking at messages, in a five-star hotel in Jingdu, two middle-aged men who had just finished attending today's unveiling ceremony were also sitting and drinking tea.

"This young man really has a big heart." The middle-aged man wearing glasses clicked his tongue; he was none other than the chief scientist of CATL, Chen Rongxuan.

Unlike Xu Qingzhou, they mainly focused on sulfide solid-state batteries and had now successfully prepared condensed-state batteries with an energy density of 300wh/kg.
