Chapter 169 This Woman Really Knows How To Spend Money
Regarding the research direction of batteries, Li Bai still tends to research in the direction of solid batteries.
As for the graphene battery, which is something that can only be seen in science fiction movies, Li Bai said that even if he is reborn, he is helpless.
No way, this thing will not be discovered by scientists until 2004.
Although this material is indeed suitable for battery technology, in Li Bai's view, it cannot be applied to actual production for at least 50 years.
Let's be a little more realistic and start working on solid-state batteries.
Li Bai has divided the battery R&D group into two parts.
A part is specially responsible for improving the existing technology of lithium polymer batteries to improve the stability and endurance of batteries.
Another group of elite researchers is responsible for researching solid-state batteries.
Solid-state batteries can be said to be the best alternative before the advent of graphene batteries.
Its energy can reach more than 2 times that of ordinary lithium polymer batteries.
As far as the energy of this battery is concerned, the battery life of electric vehicles can exceed 1,000 kilometers.
In the future, there are two directions for the development of solid-state batteries. The first is ceramic solid-state batteries. This kind of solid-state battery is the most successful solid-state battery in the future. It's a pity that the price is high.
The second development direction of solid-state batteries is the sodium glass battery, which is a battery technology proposed by John Goodenough, the father of lithium batteries.
Before Li Bai crossed over in the previous life, this battery technology had already solved the problem of the positive electrode, and the material of the negative electrode was being researched.
Compared with ceramic solid-state batteries, sodium glass batteries have better performance and are extremely cheap.
Therefore, Li Bai divided the researchers responsible for the development of solid-state batteries into two groups, responsible for researching ceramic solid-state batteries and sodium-glass batteries.
Of course, the research direction was proposed by Li Bai, as for the research results, that is unknown.
Compared with the research and development of chips, the investment in battery research will be the scientific research project invested by all Li Bai's scientific research companies after EUV lithography technology.
In the budget, Li Bai will spend no less than US$2.5 billion on research each year.
Having said that about the battery, let’s talk about the Longteng seven-star hotel.
Li Mu came back just in time. After nearly two months of investigation and research, Zhou Juan's decoration plan was finally released.
The participants in this decoration plan are not only Zhou Juan and her team, Li Bai also invited the most well-known design masters in China to participate in the design.
The design team alone exceeds 500 people.
Inspiration comes from constant collisions. After the efforts of these design masters, a complete decoration plan was finally presented.
Li Bai is full of expectations for this.
On that day, Li Bai's family of three came to Longteng Real Estate Company's meeting room decoration plan. Zhou Jian, the general manager of the decoration plan of the meeting room, was already waiting there with a bunch of design drawings.
It can be seen that although Zhou Juan is tired, she is very energetic.
"Thank you, Miss Zhou."
"It's not hard, I have to thank Mr. Li for giving me such a platform to surpass myself.
Zhou Juan couldn't wait: "Our design concept for Longteng Hotel is: classical and modern. We have studied almost every dynasty in the history of the Dragon Kingdom, and combined and improved the different artistic expressions of these dynasties. The unique decoration style will definitely shock the whole world.
Seeing the other party's excitement, Li Mu frowned: "Miss Zhou, doesn't the decoration plan that combines classical and modern that you mentioned really make people feel soft?"
After all, modernization and classicism are two completely different forms of expression.
It is indeed not an easy task to blend together perfectly.
Zhou Juan looked confident: "Of course, those design masters in this country really have very important ideas.
As she spoke, she unfolded several design renderings.
Due to time constraints, not all design renderings of the hotel have been made.
But the resulting renderings are very representative.
The first is the hall, the color is mainly simple and peaceful, but there is a huge pillar in the center of the hall, which is very eye-catching and stands in the center of the hall.
The entire huge pillar is bright white, and a soaring golden dragon is entrenched (bhed) on it.
Well, Li Bai feels that this is the designer flattering Long Teng Group again.
But I have to say that this design is quite amazing. It should be a very conspicuous giant column, but because of the surrounding layout, it looks extraordinarily grand, and it is not eye-catching at ten o'clock.
Zhou Juan pointed to this giant pillar: "I discussed with the designers that the periphery of the giant pillar will be embellished with gold inlaid with jade, and almost four tons of Hetian jade and two tons of gold will be used.
Only then did Li Bai realize that Zhou Juan was reporting where she planned to draw the money.
What is the current price of Hetian jade?
Since this giant column is located in the lobby on the first floor, it is natural to use the top Hetian jade to decorate it.
Four tons of Hetian jade is almost 80 million dragon coins, and two tons of gold is almost 200 million dragon coins.
That is, one pillar will cost you 300 million Dragon National Coins.
Li Bai was a little worried that 3.2 billion US dollars would not be enough for this woman.
Li Mu and Cao Wen immediately entered a sluggish state.
On the other hand, Zhou Juan continued to talk about her design concepts, and the design drawings she produced were indeed eye-catching.
Even though there are many things that are too extravagant in the eyes of Li Mu and Cao Wen, they have to admit that the decoration is really luxurious, and it won't make people think that they are nouveau riche showing off their wealth.
It is full of cultural heritage of Longguo.
After introducing the decoration plan, Zhou Juan carefully looked at Li Bai's family: "Mr. Li, what do you think of the decoration plan?"
"Very good, not bad." Li Mu said subconsciously.
This kind of plan is really extravagant, if it is not good to say that it is against the conscience, Li Mu will not be able to pass the test of his own conscience.
Seeing Li Mu's reaction, Zhou Juan breathed a sigh of relief: "According to our design plan, the decoration of the entire Longteng Hotel will require 80 tons of Hetian jade, 40 tons of gold, and 20 tons of platinum.
Li Mu and Cao Wen have lost their ability to think.
And Li Bai was also frightened, according to the market price.
80 tons of the top Hetian jade will cost 1.6 billion dragon coins, 40 tons of gold will cost 3.7 billion dragon coins, and 20 tons of platinum will cost 3.2 billion dragon coins.
I rely on it, it's ruthless!
This is too expensive, right?
The total cost of materials is 8.5 billion yuan, and one-third of the decoration cost is to buy only three materials.
Who would believe it?
Li Bai couldn't help swallowing, and said weakly: "According to your renovation plan, is 3.2 billion US dollars enough?"
Zhou Juan nodded: "It should be no problem, and we have already contacted many manufacturers, such as Suzhou Embroidery, we provide materials, they specialize in embroidery, and the price is not too expensive."
"The decoration will be left to you. As for the precious metals and the jade you want, I will arrange them for you.
Hurriedly dismissing Zhou Juan, Li Bai was afraid that his father and mother would not be able to stand the stimulation and would get angry on the spot.
After all, the value of these things add up, it is really easy to make people collapse. .
