"Chairman Zeng and President Dong, I just finished attending the company's regular meeting. I'm sorry to keep you waiting for so long."
"Please take a seat."
Xu Yun walked into the reception room and saw Zeng Kequn and Dong Enyu hurriedly standing up with a smile on their lips to greet them to sit down again.
"We are the ones disturbing Mr. Xu today." Zeng Kequn and Dong Enyu were chatting.
When everyone sat on the sofa again, Xu Yun didn't mince words and asked directly: "The two of us came over anxiously just after the work started. Is there something wrong with the solid-state battery?" He wanted to make sure that things were as he suspected. Related to solid-state batteries.
Deepin Technology has not cooperated with these two companies before, and does not even have any dealings with them.
The only connection between several companies is the licensing of their solid-state battery technology.
The bosses of two large manufacturing companies could come to the door collectively before the Lantern Festival had passed.
Explain that things are more important to them.
It was an appointment made in advance.
With the advent of all-solid-state battery technology, the entire battery industry has already set off an irreversible revolution. The two of them have successfully obtained technology authorization and have undoubtedly established a firm foothold in the world. It is impossible for the two bosses to worry about other things.
Analyzing from this perspective, Xu Yun does not think that his judgment will be wrong.
But in this case, a new problem will be placed in front of him.
What can go wrong with solid-state batteries?
Fortunately, Zeng Kequn and Dong Enyu did not hesitate, and while Xu Yun was thinking, he heard their explanations.
"Mr. Xu, you misunderstood. Solid-state batteries are currently in production, and new battery bases are also being built."
"According to our plan, the newly built battery base in Pingzhou City will be put into use this year, which will greatly reduce the pressure on the market." Dong Enyu took Zeng Kequn's words and replied seriously, seeming to want to prove that Deepin Technology has licensed the technology to They were the right choice.
Xu Yun didn't come here to listen to what was said in these scenes. When he saw that things were a little different from his guess, he asked directly.
"Are those two coming here today?"
The words fell.
Zeng Kequn and Dong Enyu looked at each other, and then Zeng Kequn spoke first.
"Let me tell you, because the new battery base is still under construction, it is difficult to meet market demand with the current solid-state battery production speed alone."
"In addition, we have also taken on battery orders from industrial groups."
"Currently, many brands around the world have submitted purchase orders to us, and we are temporarily undecided on whom to cooperate with." Dong Enyu spoke immediately to supplement Zeng Kequn's narrative.
Although Xu Yun was not very good at business matters, he couldn't help but secretly cursed the old fox after listening to what the two of them said.
It is normal for the production of solid-state batteries to be limited in a short period of time. As a new breakthrough technology, it must be continuously improved to be stable.
What's more, completely replacing lithium batteries will not be achieved overnight and needs to be done step by step.
At least until then, the supply of some lithium battery shares must be guaranteed.
In this case, solid-state batteries must have limited production capacity and cannot meet the huge market demand.
Simply put, it’s not enough points.
For new energy car companies and car brands planning to enter this industry, most of them definitely want to be among the first companies to use solid-state batteries, so choosing which brands to cooperate with becomes key.
Zeng Kequn and Dong Enyu came here specifically because of this matter, obviously wanting him to make a decision.
In this way, even if there is any problem, there is no way to hold people responsible.
However, Xu Yun did not answer according to their rhythm. After listening to all the words, he asked a new question.
"Since you two came here specially, you should have already formulated a specific solution."
After saying that, he stopped and looked at the two of them, with a faint mysterious smile on his lips.
It was as if he had already seen through them.
When these words reached Zeng Kequn's ears, a slight embarrassment suddenly appeared on Zeng Kequn's face, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye. He then took out a paper document from his briefcase and handed it over while speaking.
"I wonder if Mr. Xu, you have ever thought about building your own new energy vehicle brand."
"My own brand of new energy vehicles?" Xu Yun repeated, feeling slightly interested.
"Expand your story."
"The three of us can set up a solid-state battery new energy vehicle brand specifically for the market. The specific plans are included in the plan. President Dong also expressed support for this proposal."
Zeng Kequn noticed Xu Yun's attitude and immediately started telling the story.
Dong Enyu, who was mentioned, nodded sharply and agreed: "I think this is a good plan."
Xu Yun took the document and looked through it for a while, his originally relaxed expression became a little solemn.
It can be seen from the documents that this was not a casual proposal between the two of them, but was carefully considered and discussed.
According to the content of the document, the three companies will create a new new energy vehicle brand, with CATL providing solid-state batteries, Deepin Technology providing technical support and handing over to BYD for manufacturing and sales.
By then, this will be the world’s first solid-state battery new energy vehicle.
There is certainly nothing to worry about in terms of sales.
In addition, other automobile companies have nothing to say about supplying existing solid-state battery production to new brands.
And this brand can play a role in gradually changing the current new energy vehicle industry.
For example, complex regulations such as removable and replaceable battery designs, unified battery standards and charging interfaces.
If other brands do not accept these, it will be difficult to get a share of the cake in the new energy vehicle industry.
Xu Yun fell into deep thought and considered this matter. Before he could make a final decision, Dong Enyu's voice came to his ears again: "At that time, we can also strive to get orders for plastic fluorocarbon polymer coating materials. Use it in our car." As he spoke, his eyes always fell on Xu Yun, full of profound meaning that everyone understood.
Xu Yun felt a little happy when he heard this, but he didn't expect Dong Enyu to still have this idea.
The effect of shaping fluorocarbon polymer materials is very clear, and if used in cars, it will undoubtedly increase the cost performance.
Safety alone will be favored by a large number of car owners.
Although official news stated that this material will gradually be commercialized, no car company has yet heard of it.
Dong Enyu undoubtedly has the most say in this matter, because he has already applied for his own car brand.
The end result is no results.
But it would be completely different if Xu Yun came forward. After all, he was the developer of this material.
The reception room was silent for about half a minute before Xu Yun finally made a decision.
"I agree to do my thing, but since it is the first domestic solid-state battery vehicle, it must meet the highest standards and strive to create the best-performing new energy vehicle in the world."
After saying this, he had no intention of stopping.
Instead, with excited expressions on their faces, Zeng Kequn and Dong Enyu continued to talk about their plans for this car brand.
"For this solid-state battery car, our company will provide a new motor performance upgrade technology."
"In addition, shaped fluorocarbon polymer materials will also be used in this car."
"It's really great. We have solid-state batteries and shaped fluorocarbon polymer materials as our biggest advantages. If we add in the improvement of motor performance, we can easily surpass Tesla and occupy the market." Dong Enyu couldn't control himself. He said these words with great emotion.
There is still a technical gap between domestic new energy vehicles and Tesla. The biggest advantage now is solid-state batteries.
After all, the other party has not stated that it will use all-solid-state batteries, and currently still chooses to place its hopes on Panasonic.
I want to wait for the results of new battery technology research.
But I never expected that in addition to the advantage of shaping fluorocarbon polymer materials, Deepin Technology could actually improve the performance of the motor and increase the rating of the entire vehicle.
It is no exaggeration to say that now he can imagine how popular this solid-state battery car has been since it entered the market.
No one knew these emotions would fluctuate wildly.
Xu Yun saw the changes in their expressions and didn't feel surprised at all.
The so-called technology to improve motor performance was mastered from the drawings of the door frame robot armor.
Application in new energy vehicles will only greatly improve vehicle performance.
In addition, with the learning and growth of artificial intelligence, it has become a relatively simple matter to rely on the world's leading lidar to realize autonomous driving technology.
If you have your own car brand, it will be very convenient for experimentation and promotion in the future.
What's more, in this cooperation, deep technology does not require actual contribution, it only needs to invest funds to provide technology.
In the following time, Xu Yun specially called Meng Songyan and several senior personnel of the company to discuss together, and finally succeeded in reaching an agreement with Zeng Kequn and Dong Enyu.
Considering that this is the first solid-state battery car, the brand was named the Trailblazer series after discussion.
There are initially two versions: a regular version and a high-end version.
The high-end version will use shaped fluorocarbon polymer materials to maximize the safety performance of the vehicle.
As for the specific details, professionals from the three parties need to sit down and discuss them carefully.
Of course, the efficiency must be as fast as possible, and we strive to allow pioneers to enter the market in the shortest possible time.
Zeng Kequn and Dong Enyu achieved great results in their trip to Jingzhou, so naturally they were not in the mood to stay too long. They left one after another in the afternoon and returned to the company to deal with matters related to the Pioneer solid-state battery vehicle.
Xu Yun doesn't spend much time in the company, and today he mainly presides over the company's important annual meeting.
After settling the matter of Zeng Kequn and Dong Enyu, and confirming the solid-state battery car brand of Pioneer, he asked the driver Wang Pengfei to take him back to the Institute of Advanced Mathematics of Jingzhou University.
After becoming a distinguished professor at Jingzhou University, he has not taught any classes at the school.
Now that the project matters are settled and he has officially held his wedding to Chen Shihe, he will have a lot of free time to concentrate on being his professor.
So he decided to open open mathematics classes.
Do your duty as a teacher.
Besides, at the Xu Yun Mathematics Award Ceremony, he also promised to open open classes after the Chinese New Year and welcome winners to attend classes.
…
…
And just as Xu Yun was preparing for his own course, the entire artificial intelligence industry was not idle either.
Almost all artificial intelligence labs around the world are doing the same thing today.
That is, testing deep technology’s artificial intelligence models.
With the reputation and status of Deepin Technology, this artificial intelligence model that suddenly came online is naturally eye-catching. Everyone wants to see how far Deepin Technology's products can reach.
After all, every time deep technology is launched, it is accompanied by huge changes in a certain industry.
If Benben really has extremely strong abilities, there is no doubt that the existing artificial intelligence industry will be subverted.
Humanity has entered the age of intelligence.
"On the line."
“Deepin Technology’s model has been opened up.”
January 31, 2020, Baidu Artificial Intelligence Research Institute, Imperial Capital.
Following the reminder from an engineer in the smart laboratory, others tried to gain access.
They are all outstanding talents in the field of artificial intelligence and have developed their own artificial intelligence. The testing of intelligent models can only be said to be very simple.
You only need to talk to the model and ask a few questions, and you can basically determine the range of the level.
Not long after, these thin-haired engineers started communicating with Benben after registering their accounts.
Hands typing quickly on the keyboard.
Everyone has the same dialog box on the screen in front of them.
If the surrounding environment and the equipment used were not so high-end, I might have thought that this was fishing in the Internet cafe Neptune.
At the same time, Wang Fenghai, the head of the institute, is also staying here, wanting to get the final results as soon as possible.
Although he didn't speak, the expression on his face still revealed that he was not at peace at the moment.
The reason for this situation is also very simple, because we don’t know what level the artificial intelligence level of Deepin Technology has reached.
Before today, everyone in this industry was sprinting towards the finish line on the same track.
Although the distance is different, at least there is still the possibility of catching up and overtaking.
If it is confirmed that Deepin Technology’s artificial intelligence model Benben has terrifying independent computing logic capabilities, it will be equivalent to erecting an unclimbable mountain in front of their peers.
It is not just their research institute that is so concerned about this matter that is related to changes in the industry.
Even the overseas OpenAI artificial intelligence research company is believed to be staying up late doing the same thing at this moment.
However, as time passed, Wang Fenghai found that there were more and more discussions in the smart laboratory, which made him frown slightly and felt a little strange.
To say that I am surprised by Deepin Technology's artificial intelligence model, it is normal to be shocked and cursed.
After all, this is something that has been thought of for a long time.
But the actual situation now is that everyone is complaining, and even the tone is mixed with strong disappointment.
"That's not quite right. Is this really an artificial intelligence model developed by Deepin Technology?"
"The level of this model is not as high as expected. It can even be said to be far lower than expected. It is not as small as ours in handling some problems."
"I heard that Mr. Xu from Deepin Technology has been developing this artificial intelligence model during the summer after graduating from high school. How could it be possible to reach such a model that can't even fit at head level in a few years?"
"It's so disappointing."
"It seems that Deepin Technology cannot take the lead every time, at least not on artificial intelligence models."
"I thought I could witness history this year, but it seems I thought too much."
Wang Fenghai noticed that some people had lost interest in the test, and immediately understood that something was wrong.
So he hurriedly walked towards the nearest engineer.
"what happened?"
While asking, he checked the other party's testing process. It didn't take long for him to understand the reason for the current situation.
Benben does have high merits, and it can be regarded as an initial break away from mechanical fixed answers.
However, there are still big problems in logic and information processing, and it is impossible to understand more complex problems.
To put it simply, it cannot keep up with human thinking, just like a young child who appears immature and deficient in many aspects.
If this model was developed by a personal team or a small company, it would definitely be very powerful. But if you put it in a company like Deepin Technology that is at the forefront of technology and often creates miracles, it would not be very good or even passable.
Although a large part of the reason for this is that the outside world has too high expectations for deep technology.
It can only be said that the strength shown by Deepin Technology in the past is so strong that we were very excited about the news of the artificial intelligence model when it came out. How can we not be disappointed now that the actual situation is far lower than the expectations.
"According to my test results, currently Deepin Technology's models are still far from the top overseas levels."
"I'm afraid it still takes a lot of time to update and iterate. This time it really disappointed the public."
"I understand." Wang Fenghai's emotions seemed a little complicated after listening to the report of the engineer in front of him.
We neither want to see deep technology become the pinnacle of the field of artificial intelligence, but we also have expectations for true artificial intelligence.
When the matter got here, he stopped staying. He simply responded to the other party and turned around and walked outside, intending to report the results to the company's senior management immediately.
Companies and laboratories in related fields are not the only ones who are studying deep technology artificial intelligence models for the first time. For netizens, it is also the most anticipated thing during this Spring Festival.
Although they were not professionals, the questions they asked and the content of their chats were absolutely unreasonable and they wanted to kill people.
He is still version 1.0 of Benben, so naturally he cannot withstand this kind of continuous torture at all levels.
Therefore, the answer can easily disappoint people, and it obviously does not meet everyone's expectations.
Therefore, not long after Benben opened the permissions, the surge in discussion of the topic reached the top of the hot search list on major websites.
It’s just that the comments this time seem very complicated, and the comment area under the relevant content is full of gunpowder.
Some people complained about Benben to express their disappointment, thinking that Deepin Technology should not put this kind of semi-finished product online.
Others said that Deepin Technology should be given support, believing that as long as Deepin Technology is given enough time, Benben can be updated to the world's leading version.
"The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Deepin Technology's artificial intelligence Stupid really lives up to its name."
"How can an artificial intelligence model that has just been developed to this level have the nerve to be put online? Isn't this destroying Deepin Technology's reputation and bringing bad luck to itself?"
"I think it's pretty good anyway."
"This is definitely not developed by Professor Xu. It is probably the laboratory's own masterpiece."
"I have experienced GPT-3 before, and it is indeed better than this one from Deepin Technology."
