Planet Builder - Chapter 33
Chapter 33: Chapter 33: Market Sensation
“He Xingzhou?” All the higher-ups had a confused look on their face when this name was mentioned.
They had indeed never heard of this person before. An assistant to the president who was in charge of data collection said, “Leaders, according to our investigation, this He Xingzhou is currently a third-year physics student at Beijing University of Science and Technology
“He once made a video on the internet about how to make a miniature nuclear reactor. This metal air battery is the video he made. He claimed to be doing research and development to make an electromagnetic levitation vehicle.”
“Other than this, information is very limited. It is said that he has joined a national research institute. He is an once in a life time genius.”
“There is such a thing?” The higher-ups were puzzled. If He Xingzhou was a scholar in his 40s or 50s, or even 80s or 90s, they could accept it.
But a student? Now that was really surprising.
“How’s the video?” A president asked.
The assistant immediately played the video that He Xingzhou posted online. When they finished watching it, everyone was shocked.
“He really dares to do something like this! Our BYD company can be considered one of the biggest automobile companies out there and it’s impossible for us to make such a car. Even foreign competitors in Japan, America, or even a Germany can’t do this either. He’s just a student, and he said he wants to build an electromagnetic levitation vehicle?” A high-ranking official laughed.
“We can’t underestimate him!” Someone commented. “I had the same thought as you at the beginning. But didn’t he really make this battery?”
“This…” the others were speechless. Yes, he had already completed the first step of this seemingly impossible thing.
“There’s very little information about him on the internet, and there’s no way to contact him. No matter what, we must get in touch with him!”
“We must obtain the a license for the metal air battery. It’s best if we put this He Xingzhou’s name in our company. We’ll give him as much money as he wants!” The chairman said.
..
In China, all the major battery companies, new energy companies, and car companies were urgently looking for He Xingzhou. This included some electronics industries, as well as the new forces that wanted to build cars.
“We must contact this He Xingzhou. It would be best if you can find him and bring him to our company!” Da Mi Technology’s founder, Tian Jun, gave an order during the emergency meeting.
“This kind of metal air battery will not only improve the competitiveness of Da Mi Technology’s electronics products, but it will also be a crucial part of our Da Mi electric car!”
“I don’t care what method you use, you have to find him!”
Hua Wei Technology’s president had already received the news. Like the other companies, he immediately called a meeting and ordered, “We have to get the metal air battery technology!”
“Everyone, move out! Find He Xingzhou and find the technology!”
“We have to get ahead of the other companies!”
..
Not only China, but other countries also heard about this news.
In Japan, Toyota, Honda, Mazda, Sanyo, SUO, and other companies were also urgently contacting the people-in-charge in China, asking them for more information regarding this technology
In Korea, Samsung, SK, LG, and other groups were doing similar things; in Germany, Volkswagen, BMW..
Companies from all over the world were taking action. In America, Tesla’s founder, Elon Musk, had just finished watching the news and his face was filled with excitement.
Recently, in the cryptocurrency market, he had made a killing and had earned quite a bit of money.
“President, something big has happened!” The assistant sent him an urgent message.
“What’s wrong? Did the currency I just mentioned rise again?” Musk asked with a smile.
“No, it’s battery technology. China has suddenly announced that they have broken through metal-air battery technology. This is going to challenge our position in the field of electric cars!” The assistant said.
“What? How did they suddenly break through in battery technology? is the news true?” Musk jumped. This electric car was just one of his basic products. His battery technology was true driving force behind his company!
“The Chinese National Academy of Sciences announced it. Based on their habits, as long as the technology is announced in the news, it is basically a mature technology!” The assistant said.
“I want detailed information, Quick!” Musk’s good mood instantly died as he shouted.
At the same time, at the headquarters of the California Apple Company, the current president, Tim Cook, also heard the news. He was calling the president of the China region, asking them to immediately get more information on it.
..
These companies were all looking for the inventor or person-in-charge of the metal air battery.
They wanted to contact Yu Xing or his research institute, but there was no reply for the time being.
There was a rumor that this technology patent was in the hands of He Xingzhou.
At this moment, everyone wanted to find He Xingzhou.
But as they looked, they found that they could not find any information on him on the internet. They tried to look for his family but all the calls were intercepted by the Information Security department in the National Security Bureau.
As for finding He Xingzhou himself? They couldn’t even find his phone number. They went to his school to look for his contact information but was turned away.
This time, the higher-ups of all the companies were dumbfounded.
They were in the 21st century with advance communication systems. How could they not find someone like He Xingzhou?
“What kind of god is this He Xingzhou? The government actually stopped us from looking into him!” The heads of all the companies were going crazy. They were in a race against time.
Whoever could get the license of this battery technology first would be ahead of all other companies. However, they couldn’t find the inventor.
Someone had an idea and said, “Didn’t He Xingzhou post this video on BiliBili? Why don’t we just go to the video website and contact him?”
“Yeah, since he posted the video, the video website must have his contact information!”
The heads of all the big companies ran to BiliBili.
“Hello, President Wang!” Feng Rui, the founder of BiliBili, picked up the call with a helpless expression.
Since an hour ago, he had been receiving calls non-stop from other companies.
“I really can’t contact this He Xingzhou. His information is blocked by the state. I can’t disclose it.”
“Really, I really didn’t give it to another company! I guarantee it with my reputation!”
“I want to get in touch with him too, but I can’t!”
Feng Rui never thought that he would have such a day! In the past, when the website wanted to raise funds, he had to think of ways to meet these big shots. But today, they all took the initiative to call him.
However they weren’t looking for him, they were looking for a video uploader!
“The uploader is even more awesome than the founder of my website. It really gives me a headache!” Feng Rui thought to himself and picked up the next call. The people calling were all big shots, so he did not dare to not pick up.
..
These people still could not find He Xingzhou, so they could only use the most primitive method to contact He Xingzhou.
At the bottom of He Xingzhou’s video, a bunch of official business-certified accounts suddenly appeared.
Da Mi technology: @Planet Builder, Congratulations to Big Bro for developing metal air battery technology. Does Big Bro have contact information? Our President Tian wants to see you!”
Hua Wei technology: @Planet Builder, Congratulations to Big Bro for technological breakthrough. Does Big Bro have time to come visit us as a guest?”
BYD Automotive: @Planet Builder, is Big Bro Here? Is he here? Is he here? I’m looking for Big Bro’s contact information!”
Ning Yuan Era: @Planet Builder, Me Too! (real official account, just registered, applying for enterprise certification)”
..
Below, there were all sorts of similar comments. All of them were from famous and large enterprises, and there were also quite a few foreign brands.
This wave of comments left the netizens dumbfounded!
What was the meaning of “Card face”? In the entire video website, whether it was website B or other video websites, there had never been a video author who received such treatment! A bunch of enterprise numbers were begging for contact information. If it were any other author, they would probably be laughing their heads off!
Is this what its like to have skills? In the entire internet, whether its on BiliBili or some other video sharing websites, has there been an uploader who has received such treatment? There’s actually a bunch of enterprise accounts begging for his contact information in the comments section! If it was any other uploader, they probably wouldn’t even dream of something like that!
