Chapter 614

~4 min read 782 words

Guangdong Province, Haizhu District, Guangzhou.

Living room, five adults looked at each other, seemingly savoring the meaning in the girl's words.

What do you mean you seem to have seen your uncle-in-law?

Seeing everyone staring at her, the girl raised her tablet, her little face full of excitement: "This is uncle-in-law, right?"

Wu Jiali and the others couldn't help but lean closer, looking at the news in the tablet.

Inside, the middle-aged man wearing a gray jacket was serious and said, nodding: "Hmm, we are currently trying a new way; specifically, it is to construct a LiF/GO composite artificial SEI layer. Through the chemical-physical synergistic mechanism, it can effectively inhibit the two core problems of lithium dendrite growth and polysulfide shuttle in lithium-sulfur batteries..."

The "CTV" lettering on the microphone in front of the middle-aged man was particularly obvious.

In the interview about the Kyoto Institute of Materials, two people appeared, namely Zhao Shengwen and Zheng Xu, the direct persons in charge of the two major projects.

"It really is Old Zheng."

Wu Jiali's voice trembled slightly because of excitement.

She was the one who bought that gray jacket!

Strangely, besides being happy, she couldn't help but complain in her heart, "I've told him many times not to wear this piece of clothing, but he still doesn't listen."

He bought it when he just returned to the country, and it had almost been washed until the color faded.

Others also had looks of astonishment.

Beside the middle-aged man, there was also a row of small text introducing him.

Lithium-sulfur battery person in charge, Zheng Xu.

The adults stared at the tablet, and the girl had already taken out her phone to search for related news, saying: "The news says that uncle-in-law and the others' project has had the latest breakthrough, and they can manufacture batteries with better performance than the European Max Planck Institute!"

"This... is Zheng Xu's institute that amazing?" Wu Mei was surprised and turned to look at her younger sister; didn't she just say there were no results?

Wu Jiali didn't know how to explain it for a moment.

Normally speaking, what could a newly established institute produce?

The girl's fingers tapped on the screen, as if she had seen something even more exciting: "And there's more, CATL and BYD have both released announcements to buy uncle-in-law and the others' patents; not counting subsequent profit sharing, it adds up to over 400 million!"

"..."

The people in the living room were shocked again; even the old man, who had always been indifferent, had his gaze sink, and he picked up the teacup on the table to drink water to calm his shock.

During this period, he hadn't complained less about Zheng Xu in private.

"My goodness, over 400 million." Wu Mei gasped.

Wu Jiali had already come to her senses at this time, happy for her husband, but said with a smile: "Looking at your expressions, those who don't know would think my Old Zheng earned 400 million; it's all the institute's money, how much can a small researcher like him get?"

"Small researcher... Jiali, Zheng Xu is one of the persons in charge of the project!"

"That still won't be much."

Wu Jiali shook her head and continued: "Like them doing research, it's an investment of tens of millions or hundreds of millions at every turn; even if they make money, it's Xu Qingzhou's money, and Old Zheng can get some bonuses at most."

She studied finance and knew even better how terrifying the cost of doing experiments was.

Just the investment in equipment for the Kyoto Institute of Materials that Zheng Xu went to was close to 3 billion, not counting the billions for land and buildings.

But no matter what, Old Zheng and the others' achievement this time was indeed very amazing.

"Very good, very good; I have always been worried about Little Xu suffering over there, but now I am at ease."

Wu Jiali's mother nodded slightly, a smile on her face. She originally had complaints about Zheng Xu leaving her daughter behind, but now it was different.

She could only sigh at her daughter's good eye for people.

Those neighbors and friends who gossiped could shut up now.

Also at this moment, Wu Jiali's phone suddenly rang.

"Zheng Xu's call."

Wu Jiali said, having already answered the phone, "Are you done?"

"Hmm, just came out of the office."

Wu Jiali said: "Pay attention to rest when you should rest; don't make yourself so tired all day."

"Hehe, it's not that busy usually; today the experiment entered the next stage, so there's a little more to do. How are Dad, Mom, and the eldest sister?"
