Chapter 161 Opportunities for new energy, siege of global media

Luo Jia's speech ended, but this storm about new energy has just begun.

Luo Jia was surrounded by Xu Dianli's bosses in the venue and asked many questions related to the future. Fortunately, An Ran was also by his side, and his answers were quick and appropriate. Otherwise, if Luo Jia was the only one, he would have been a little unacceptable.

In the private room, the big guys in the back row of the venue began to leave the venue. They would not come to ask questions in person. If you really want to know, just ask someone to talk to Luo Jia.

For example, Professor Ouyang and Chief Engineer Ning Zeping, who communicated with Luo Jia, are often in charge of tasks. Everyone knows it in their hearts, but no one points it out.

Luo Jia smiled and said loudly, "We are optimistic about the future. With the development of economy and technology, the total amount of electricity consumption in society will definitely rise sharply."

"This is not just a problem with electric vehicles. You may know that the most important machine in the semiconductor field, lithography machine, is moving rapidly from ultraviolet light to more advanced extreme ultraviolet light."

"Compared with the past technology, extreme ultraviolet light is actually a miracle thing. Its energy efficiency conversion rate is only 0.02%, which means that 99.98% of the electricity must be lost when the machine works."

"To maintain an EUV lithography machine with a power of only 250 watts consumes up to 30,000 kWh of electricity every day. In order to introduce such a machine, TSMC forced the local area to expand its power plant."

"Of course, this is just an extreme example. As living standards improve and industrial automation improve, these will bring huge electrical energy gaps."

"Although our total power generation is already 1.6 times that of North America, in terms of per capita, the average power generation in North America is 16,000 degrees, and we are only 4,000 degrees, which is four times the difference."

“Since we want to catch up with North America, it means that one day our per capita power generation will reach the same level as North America, or even exceed their level.”

"According to this standard, our annual total electricity generation will increase from the current six trillion kWh to at least 24 trillion kWh."

After hearing Luo Jia's judgment, the power tycoons were excited and melancholy.

The excitement is because electricity consumption has risen by four times, and power companies can do more and create more profits.

And the melancholy is because Luo Jia’s judgment on the future is too terrifying, 24 trillion kWh? How many new power plants are needed to be built?

Luo Jia paused and continued: "I know that among you, there are also big guys from the oil industry."

"In fact, both oil and electricity are the energy industry. If our judgment on the future is true, the power grid will expand at least four times in the future. The opportunities here will be too great. It is not only an opportunity for the power sector, but also an opportunity for the oil sector."

"No matter how much society progresses, oil always needs to be used, because oil not only involves transportation, but also chemical industry. Moreover, such a large power gap cannot be solved from thermal power. Wind power, solar power generation, nuclear power, these are standard configurations in the future."

Regarding the future of the oil industry, Luo Jia just skipped the water and passed by. After all, the future direction of these giants is not something he can decide.

But judging from the current movements of the national team, the trend is already very obvious.

Like all countries in the world, everyone has realized that in the future energy will definitely be dominated by electricity. This is not the opinion of China alone, but the global consensus.

In addition to intervening in the chemical industry, oil companies can actually intervene in projects such as offshore power generation and carry out diversified operations. Anyway, the way is there, it depends on how they choose.

It was finally easy to escape from the siege of the power tycoons. In October, it was almost winter, but Luo Jia, An Ran and others were sweating profusely.

They did not stop nearby, so they drove into the alley and found a secluded small restaurant.

As soon as the cold dishes were served, Luo Jia opened a bottle of Yanjing beer and was drinking it when Professor Ouyang called.

"Tell you good news." Professor Ouyang said in a mysterious tone: "Some people are very satisfied with your speech today."

Who is very satisfied?

Luo Jia would not ask such a stupid question, he just smiled.

Professor Ouyang also said, "Don't worry, you can do it boldly. If the country protects and supports scientific research enterprises like you and Huawei, how can it be suppressed? As for how big a giant it can become in the end, it depends on your own strength. In short, someone has already understood your situation. Come on, let's work hard in the future."

Luo Jia thanked Professor Ouyang and asked him when he had time to have a meal together.

As a result, Professor Ouyang has been busy recently and has already arranged a schedule, so he has to make an appointment in the future. Anyway, Luo Jia and the power department have intervened so deeply that there will be many opportunities to meet in the future.

After putting down the phone, Luo Jia told everyone what Professor Ouyang said.

An Ran is a top student. He is not sensitive to politics. He shrugged and continued to eat his shredded pork with Jingshu.

Hong Tao grew up in the capital since he was a child and has been influenced by it. He is very excited about it. At the dinner table, he guessed which big guys came today and which big guys were more satisfied with Xingchen Technology.

Luo Jia quickly stopped him from continuing to say that he was a scientific research enterprise, and it was enough to have certain political support. There was no need to rush to move closer to power. Business and politics were better to separate.

Luo Jia raised her glass and said with a smile: "In any case, the supercapacitor project has finally settled. Our products have entered the power department. This is not just a matter of profit, but a big step forward in the direction we hope for in the future."

An Ran nodded repeatedly, "That's right, the reason why the brothers in the company work so hard is that they want to rely on their own strength to change society and life. After all, whoever had no dreams when they were young, it would be worth it to see their dreams come true, and it would be worth it to sacrifice their lives!"

"Mr. Luo, do you think you will arrange your next task? You have energy storage and installation ships. Next, we should copy the base camps of Siemens and Vitas, right?"

Everyone is very excited. Although the company has done a lot of scientific and technological pre-research, according to Xingchen Technology's consistent style, it has always focused on doing major tasks.

As Luo Jia himself said, modern scientific research has become a highly complex, highly difficult thing that requires crazy money burning.

If you want to solve the problem as soon as possible and come up with a solution, you must invest all the company's scientific research forces and carry out large-scale scientific and technological research.

Luo Jia smiled, "Don't worry, follow the old rules, take a holiday first. After all, many people in the company have found girlfriends, so they always have to leave some time for everyone to fall in love. When the holiday is over, I will tell you the next direction."

......

The signing ceremony between Xingchen Technology and the power department was held very low-key.

However, the impact of this incident on the world is far greater than the emergence of any new electronic product. After all, the large-scale popularization of supercapacitors marks a significant turn in China.

The world-renowned media have published special reports on the second day after the signing of the contract. Their reports take up so much space and the far-reaching response, which makes even ordinary people who are least concerned about technology feel that a huge change is accelerating.

Before this, Xingchen Technology's supercapacitor was just a rumor discussed within the technology circle. Now that the dust has settled, everyone is shocked by Xingchen Technology and the big moves of the entire China.

The New York Times published a special topic on the front page, "After the charging pile plan, China will make another heavy move to build a national energy storage center."

This article in the New York Times is very professional, and it specially hired a great scholar from California Polytechnic to be responsible for writing.

From his professional perspective, the scholar analyzed how the future impact of China's large-scale investment and construction of energy storage centers will have a profound impact on the future.

For any country, energy is a big problem. China itself does not produce much crude oil, it all depends on overseas procurement. Once the new energy plan is completed in a few years, they will completely get rid of their dependence on overseas energy.

As a North American, the scholar Caltech gloated and pointed out that Russia may suffer because it won’t take long to reduce China and even completely stop purchasing crude oil from Russia. Russia’s Ural crude oil has a very high sulfur content, far less than Brent of the Middle East and North Sea.

In addition, the scholar also expressed his envy of China's ability to fully turn to new energy construction, believing that with the power of China's infrastructure maniacs, they are likely to become the first country on the earth to fully turn to new energy, leaving the whole world far behind.

In fact, there are still some countries on the earth that have achieved clean energy coverage, but they are all small countries, and none of the powerful countries with truly global competitiveness can do it.

After all, this article was written by a scholar and seemed to be quite eye-catching, but other North American media are not that polite.

Whether it is the Wall Street Journal, Time magazine, Washington Post, or TV organizations like ABC, CNN, and Fox, they are all seizing the opportunity to exaggerate the Chinese threat theory.

In Europe, the Financial Times article is also quite polite. They have recently left the EU and the UK, which has lost the entire European market, is trying its best to seek support from China.

Therefore, the Financial Times was very cautious and analyzed the prospects of new energy in China, and said that as the oldest capitalist empire on the earth, the British authorities should start negotiations with China as soon as possible and seize the opportunities that belong to the future.

It is worthy of being an old fox. The British still have a very sensitive sense of smell. What they feel is an opportunity. If you want to make money, it is best to cooperate with China in the future.

It’s a pity that there are only a few voices like this in the world.

Like the mainstream of North America, most media regard China's new energy strategy as a huge threat and attack it.

Especially the two major German media, Photo News and Spiegel Weekly.
