Chapter 65

All-solid-state batteries were a field that could be called the flower of the future industry.

The word is the battery.

A product with a market size comparable to that of a semiconductor in the future.

The reason is because of its unique characteristics. When used in electric vehicles with high energy density, the driving range can be greatly improved, and the charging time can also be extremely reduced.

In addition, the fact that there is no risk of explosion due to shock or overheating like a lithium-ion battery is a powerful advantage.

‘Where is that? Since it is possible to mold it into an ultra-thin film, a flexible battery can also be realized.’

In fact, if we were to list the advantages of all-solid-state batteries, there were no limits.

But what will happen if such a great thing is commercialized in this era?

It will probably welcome a new paradigm in all fields that require electricity throughout the industry.

In addition to pioneering the electric vehicle market, the market for various home appliances including mobile phones and laptops.

At least, there is no place where it cannot be applied to the military industry.

‘But why is this classified as incomplete?’

A thought suddenly crossed my mind.

According to my memory, the all-solid-state battery was definitely a successful technology.

Japan in 2024.

In addition, Samjong and LS were under development with the goal of commercialization in 2027, but eventually succeeded in development in 2025 by Samjong.

For that reason, before returning, our military decided to install all-solid-state batteries in the next conventional submarine.

‘Ah······.’

The answer can be found at the end of the file.

The point is that the ionic conductivity at room temperature has not yet been sufficiently increased.



Initially, all-solid-state batteries are characterized by low ionic conductivity in a temperature environment of 25 degrees Celsius or less. Or, I thought it was because it could be used only in fields that can control the temperature environment, such as electric vehicles.

‘That’s it, I can continue development.’

My body trembled with excitement.

No matter how much I thought about it, it wasn’t a very unlikely possibility.

Moreover, it acquired Samjong Techwin and already owns affiliated chemical companies.

If a battery specialized department is installed there and continuous development is attempted, a solution that can be expanded to the home appliance field can be found within at least 5 years.

‘If you do that, you will have a huge cash cow.’

It is not unreasonable to say that the size of the automobile battery market in the 2020s alone reached tens of trillions.

The funny thing is that it is the size of the market that was raised in a situation where the problem of charging and mileage of the battery was holding back, but what will happen if an all-solid-state battery that solves that problem appears?

At the very least, it is certain that the size of the market will be as huge as that of the semiconductor market.

‘No. Rather than that, I can completely dominate the electric vehicle market.’

Flying imagination gradually expanded its realm.

When I think about it, there really isn’t anything wrong with that.

After all, if the biggest problem, the battery, is solved, all that remains is to secure the driving motor, but if you solve it, there is nothing else.

‘It’s not that we don’t need advanced features like autonomous driving right away anyway.’

As the thoughts ran through him, his heart became desperate.

What matters now is whether the technology of high-power motors really exists.

Had it been about 10 minutes?

I finally found the folder I had been looking for so long.

‘found!’

The manufacturing technology of a drive motor that boasts an output of as much as 300 horsepower.

*******

“Why are you like this?”

The next day, they immediately came to Jin Hyeon-cheol’s house.

holiday. As if I was embarrassed that I had come since early morning, he greeted me by rubbing the mucus in my eyes that I couldn’t take off.

“I have one thing to discuss.”

“What else? By the way, have you not slept all night?”

Jin Hyeon-cheol went to the kitchen with a worried expression on his face.

As soon as he was about to make tea, he hurriedly threw water at him, who was pouring water into the kettle.

“Is it possible to establish a battery business division in a chemical company that comes from Samjong Techwin?”

“What can’t you do? Researchers in that field have already been secured.”

“What would it be like to build a factory not just at the level of research, but at all?”

“If you have money, there is nothing you cannot do. After all, there are not one or two sites and buildings owned by Techwin, and the facility is also at most, I think it will be possible to have it within a year? But why are you talking about batteries all of a sudden?”

“Of course, to enter the market.”

“The battery market? It must be difficult… The market power of Japanese companies as well as existing domestic companies must be quite high. If you don’t have the technical skills to get away with them at once, it could be pouring water into a broken jar.”

“What if there is a way to keep them from following in decades?”

“·················ogue.”

Jin Hyeon-cheol looked at me as if that was a nonsense thing to say.

After that, I continued to explain the 300 horsepower level motor and all-solid-state battery for a while on the premise that the development was completed in the research institute, and Jin Hyun-cheol’s eyes grew bigger as time went on.

Whoops.

After a while, his gaze turned to his cell phone on his table.

Battery is the first thing that comes to mind.

He soon turned his gaze back to me and spoke with a blank expression on his face.

“Do you know how terrific what you are saying right now? If such a battery succeeds in commercialization, we will dominate the global energy storage device market.”

“Unfortunately, the electronics sector will have to be excluded for the time being. Right now, it is difficult to make it have the same ionic conductivity as the existing lithium-theory batteries at room temperature. Still, like you said, it can turn the market upside down throughout the industry. In particular, the automobile market may change the paradigm itself.”

“Is it the automobile market?”

Hyun-cheol expressed his doubts about that part.

“It’s an electric vehicle. It consists of a motor and a battery, not an internal combustion engine.”

“Then the motor I mentioned a while ago does that…….”

It must have been an unfamiliar feeling.

After all, in this era, the concept of electric vehicles was just a futuristic idea.

At least Tesla, which played a pioneering role in breaking the stereotypes of the public, will have to wait three more years before its founding.

“Are you serious?”

“What can’t you do? The two most important difficulties have been solved in the yard. The remaining question is how quickly we can have the infrastructure in place, which will be possible within 10 years at the most.”

If things don’t work out, it doesn’t matter if we build it first, like Tesla’s method.

“·················ogue.”

Jin Hyun-cheol’s expression was still serious.

If there’s one thing that’s different from the first time, it’s that it’s not the eyes that looked like crazy now.

No, looking at her face that is gradually reddening, it seems that she is putting more weight on the possibilities.

“Going more than 1,000 kilometers on a single charge?”

“Not only that, but the charging time can also be drastically reduced. Moreover, there is no explosion hazard like a lithium-ion battery.”

“Damn, then what are you thinking about? You should jump right in.”

Hyun-cheol finally let go of the negative string he was holding onto.

He is a person who must be acknowledged for his challenging spirit.

In fact, there are probably not many people who would jump right in after hearing such crazy stories, except for Hyun-cheol and me.

Oh, come to think of it, there was Kim Ji-hoon, the son of Minister Kim.

Wouldn’t it be nice to take this opportunity to place him in this business field altogether?

“Why are you looking at me like that? After all, you are the president. Once you have decided, just go ahead and think about it.”

That’s true, but the problem remained.

Right now, according to my thoughts, there is no one who can control it.

If you take on even the scattered projects in a yard that is difficult to solve alone, you may have to dig into the grave.

“So, chemistry hyung should take charge of the management.”

“·················ogue.”

“I know it is a burden. But please wait until the attack helicopter development project is over.”

“Rather than being burdened, I am hesitant because I wondered if it would be possible for me to take charge of it and lead it.”

Perhaps that’s the case with Motorsitch.

You still don’t trust your own judgment.

However, I cannot let it stay like this forever.

At least for me.

“Anyway, on important issues, I intend to get involved. In other words, you don’t have to worry about your business being ruined by your brother’s misjudgment. And frankly, it is impossible to entrust this task to anyone other than the family. But right now, the only person I can trust is you, isn’t it?”

Hyuncheol’s eyes fluttered at those words.

The word family came out of my mouth.

Apparently, it felt like a new thing.

“Yeah, it makes no sense to hesitate when my family needs me. When are you planning to start?”

“We have to start right away. First of all, the battery business.”

“Ttt, it looks like I haven’t been able to sleep for a while.”

“There is no need to be so sorry for sleep, because if you go to the grave, you will sleep without want. Well, there is one more thing you need to do.

“·················ogue.”

“Although entering the automobile market is also an advance, please establish a specialized high-power motor development division in Wooyoung.”

“A high-power motor? 300 horsepower is enough for commercial vehicles.”

With that said, he immediately took out a sheet of paper and showed it to him.

No, it’s more of a conceptual map than a document.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

After staring at it for a while, Hyun-cheol gasped and swallowed the empty wind and looked at me.

“You want to use electric propulsion for the power packs of tanks and self-propelled guns?

It was natural to be surprised.

In this era when even electric vehicles have not yet appeared, it is not enough to hear the sound of an idiot to drive those heavy tanks and self-propelled guns with motors.

However, in the case of tanks and self-propelled guns, where torque is important, it can be a means of increasing survivability by securing a fast reaction speed if the motor is used, and in fact, ADD did a lot of research for that at one time.

“Actually, more research is needed. Unfortunately, the power of the motor that can be realized now is not enough to defeat the internal combustion engine of tanks and self-propelled artillery.”

If there was a problem, that was it.

But that is a problem that can be solved if development continues.

For example, considering that the power of the motor developed by Nomak, an electric supercar maker, was close to 2000 horsepower, wouldn’t it be sufficient for us to develop it as well?

“Even so, how are you going to charge a tank or self-propelled gun in the field?”

“As I said, all-solid-state batteries can be fully charged in a short time. Therefore, it can be sufficiently solved by developing a charging vehicle together. Otherwise, we will go to a form where it is possible to replace the battery.”

“You want to change the battery of the self-propelled gun?”

“We want to make it in the form of a kind of module so that it can be easily exchanged. This is a possible scenario because it has the advantage of being able to reduce the volume compared to conventional lithium batteries.”

“Hmm······.”

Hyuncheol had a blank expression on his face.

For a more clear understanding, I immediately attached the four legs.

“Anyway, the reason why our military moved the driving part of the tank to a German-style power pack was to secure a fast reaction speed and to make maintenance easier.”

“…you can see that.”

“However, the electric propulsion method not only does not dare to match the internal combustion engine in terms of reaction speed, but also the convenience of maintenance is unparalleled. That means an increase in operational capability in the field.”

“·················ogue.”

“Ah! Of course, it will take quite some time. First of all, we need to develop a motor with enough power. Therefore, it can be said that it is practically difficult to apply it to tanks right now.”

jump!

As soon as he finished speaking, he left his seat and stood up.

His aroused face is already blushing.

“Let’s do it anyway, whether it’s an electric car or an electric tank, let’s make it and turn the world upside down.”

His last words pierced his chest.

turning the world upside down

In fact, when I first returned to this era, wasn’t that the ambition I had?

It felt like the resolution I had forgotten because I had been running frantically until now was resurfacing today.

‘Okay, now is the time to turn the world upside down properly.’
