Chapter 722: Chapter 419: Your School Really Knows How to Boast (Seeking Subscription)_2

"Dean Sun, are you saying that, unless we can mass produce high-purity graphene materials, graphene battery technology is essentially a rather unexciting scientific research achievement?"

Zhou Sicheng once again sought confirmation from Academician Sun.

"Yes."

Academician Sun affirmed with absolute certainty: "If we had the technology and equipment to efficiently mass produce high-purity graphene materials, then these graphene materials, along with graphene battery technology, could disrupt the development of many industries."

Of course, Academician Sun knew exactly how formidable graphene materials and graphene battery technology were, having previously researched the subject.

"I am really looking forward to that day," Academician Sun couldn’t help expressing.

...

In the principal’s office in the Administration Building of Mist City Arts and Science University.

After pondering for nearly half an hour, Ding Yue finally understood why Vice President Zhou Sicheng’s reaction during their phone conversation had seemed so indifferent.

Vice President Zhou probably only knew from the Ministry of Education that Mist City Arts and Science University had developed graphene battery technology.

He was not aware that Mist City Arts and Science University also possessed the technology and machinery for mechanical exfoliation of graphene.

Indeed, graphene batteries could revolutionize the battery energy sector.

But the precondition for this revolutionary revolution is the machine that can efficiently produce high-purity graphene materials.

Without the precondition, a graphene battery alone is just a rather unexciting scientific achievement because it cannot be implemented on a large scale, let alone trigger a revolutionary revolution.

What is a revolutionary revolution?

The transition from button phones to touchscreen smartphones indeed qualifies as a revolutionary transformation in the realm of mobile communication devices.

Once he had figured this out, Ding Yue felt much more reassured.

Now, Ding Yue only wanted to handle the official announcement of Mist City Arts and Science University’s accomplishment in developing graphene battery technology well. As for the Xia Country Academy of Sciences, they would soon learn that Mist City Arts and Science University actually also controlled the technology for mechanical exfoliation of graphene.

"Principal Ding, everything is almost ready now. When should we officially announce the graphene battery technology?"

Ding Yue’s secretary, Wen Ruohan, asked curiously.

Ding Yue shrugged, casually saying, "If everything’s prepared, then we can announce it now."

With this comment from Ding Yue,

Mist City Arts and Science University immediately released a notice about major research achievements from the Energy Chemistry Research Laboratory.

At the same time, Mist City Arts and Science University published a promotional video about graphene batteries, produced by the Media Department.

In a short time, some news media that focused on advanced technology noticed the developments at Mist City Arts and Science University and subsequently reposted the official announcement from the university’s website.

In just one hour, a popular discussion thread appeared in a forum dedicated to graphene materials.

Countless fans of graphene began discussions in earnest.

"Mist City Arts and Science University has developed a graphene battery?"

"That’s impressive."

"Have you seen the video?"

"Isn’t it normal to develop graphene batteries? Many high-tech companies can research graphene batteries; it’s just that the performance is greatly affected because the graphene materials produced are not pure enough."

"I watched the video, Mist City Arts and Science University claimed they can produce high-purity graphene materials and develop incredibly powerful graphene batteries."

"Damn! Is it for real?"

"Is the graphene battery finally going to take center stage in history?"

"Has the revolutionary revolution started?"

"Give me a break. From the early 2000s until now, almost every year there’s news about graphene claiming a revolutionary revolution has started. Aren’t you tired of this?"

"I also watched the video from Mist City Arts and Science University. Excuse my candor, but how can a ragtag private university brag so much?"

"How else would they attract investment?"

"Makes sense; no bragging allowed, how can we scam the national subsidy then? Hahaha!"

The topic of Mist City Arts and Science University developing graphene batteries initially made rounds within circles familiar with graphene, but most people did not believe it.

The reason was simple. You claim you’ve developed a high-performance graphene battery, but what proves it?

Just based on an official announcement from your own school?

Who knows if the graphene battery you developed is merely a product for showmanship?

As the topic gained traction within the circle, more and more netizens became aware of the news.

After Mist City Arts and Science University released an official announcement video, official Twitter accounts from various platforms also published announcements about the research achievements on graphene batteries.

Mist City Arts and Science University became the first university to globally announce that they have developed a genuine graphene battery.

However, not many people believed it.

Domestic netizens didn’t believe it, and foreigners who saw the official announcement video of Mist City Arts and Science University on YouTube also laughed, thinking it was just another company from Xia Country trying to hype things up for an IPO and reap the profits?

"Wow, are those Easterners fantasizing again?"

"Our Notak Technology Group has been researching graphene materials for so many years and hasn’t had much of a breakthrough. How can an Eastern university be so amazing? It’s too fake."

"Easterners are hilarious. Don’t they know their own level of technology research?"

"Xia Country Smecta often pops up with funny news."

On YouTube, foreigners from all over the world don’t believe that a university in Xia Country has truly developed a graphene battery.

Not only on foreign media platforms, even domestically, as the news heats up and is known to more and more netizens, they also maintain a skeptical attitude.

On Twitter’s trending topics, "Graphene Battery" and "Mist City Arts and Science University" once again made it to the top.

Under the official Twitter account of Mist City Arts and Science University, many netizens came to "watch" the announcement about Mist City Arts and Science University’s development of a graphene battery and played with all kinds of phrases in the comment section.

Ding Yue has gotten used to this kind of situation.

"Principal Ding, it seems that everyone doesn’t believe that we have developed a graphene battery."After watching the online comments, Secretary Wen Ruohan said to Principal Ding with great despondency.

But Ding Yue was unexpectedly calm. After taking a sip of tea, he said to Wen Ruohan, "It’s normal for them not to believe, but believe me, they will eventually feel embarrassed about their ignorance."

Now.

Mist City Arts and Science University has only announced the development of graphene batteries by the Energy Chemistry Laboratory.

About the technology of the graphene mechanical peeling preparation machine, Mist City Arts and Science University is still holding it tight.

Even the Xia Country Academy of Sciences doesn’t know it yet.

"But so many people are saying we’re bluffing, we’re not bluffing!" Wen Ruohan, a rather innocent thinker, said angrily, almost stamping her foot.

The comments under the Twitter trending topics were giving Wen Ruohan a headache the more she read.

"What are the netizens saying?"

Ding Yue is not in a hurry yet, waiting for the heat to brew before releasing the real big deal. By then, Mist City Arts and Science University will undoubtedly become the focus of the world.

"Here, Principal Ding, take a look."

Wen Ruohan handed her phone over to Principal Ding in frustration.

Ding Yue took the phone and looked. Under the comment section of his own Mist City Arts and Science University official Twitter account, the most popular comments all had over a hundred thousand likes.

Top Comment One: Mist City Arts and Science University sure loves to brag! (12k replies, 117k likes)

Top Comment Two: Do you know how badass graphene batteries are? Can your private university even develop one? (10k replies, 99k likes)

Top Comment Three: I’m selling popcorn, beer, and soda in the front row. Come and get ’em. (8.6k replies, 73k likes)

Top Comment Four: If this is true, I’ll stream myself pouring boiling water! (8.1k replies, 70k likes)

When Ding Yue saw the fourth top comment, he couldn’t help but smile. He then clicked and replied with his Principal Ding of Mist City Arts and Science University Twitter account, "Is this a promise?"
