Everyone looked at him, and Lu Zixin continued: "If we dare to throw out such an agreement, we can naturally guarantee the research and development results and time."
Wang Kai asked: "How to guarantee it? Just the problem of making superconducting materials maintain superconducting properties at room temperature. Not many research institutions in the world can overcome this problem!"
Feng Weijun also said: "What's more important is that we also need to create new superconducting materials for industrial production. We must consider factors such as cost, equipment, practical applications, etc., and cannot use the same laboratory methods. This is not possible." No way to solve it!”
At this time, Sima Jin, the boss of Taiguang Magnetic Materials, stopped talking. Their doubts were also Sima Jin's doubts. If this cannot be resolved, he will never sign this cooperation contract.
"Others can't solve it, but it doesn't mean that we at Hongxin can't solve it!" Lu Zixin's words surprised a few people. This is a worldwide problem in the field of new materials. Can Hongxin have a solution
"Both of you, you are both technical experts in this field. Let me ask you, what would you do if Taiguang Magnetic Materials were asked to solve the problem of superconducting materials for quantum computers?"
Lu Zixin's question put Wang Kai and Feng Weijun in a difficult position. If they knew about it, why would they still come here
Wang Kai was already giving up. The CEO of Hongxin seemed unreliable at all. After talking for a long time, he still had to ask them! It seems that the business cannot be negotiated today.
"Tell Mr. Lu about it." Sima Jin still held a trace of luck in his heart and wanted to continue the conversation. Even if this business doesn't work out, you still have to show off your company's strength, and maybe you can negotiate deals on other materials.
Wang Kai had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "In cutting-edge quantum computing internationally, it is generally necessary to cool materials to absolute zero to achieve superconducting properties. However, we cannot find materials that can superconduct at room temperature yet."
"Internationally, the University of Tokyo and the Science Promotion Agency have used optical fibers and programmable semiconductors to achieve room-temperature superconducting technology; Stanford University has proposed based on semiconductor crystal materials, adjusting the atomic array within the crystal to create a device that can "confine a single spin electron" "The structural units and materials made can also realize normal temperature quantum chips."
Lu Zixin smiled and said: "You are talking about room-temperature superconducting methods that serve optical quantum computers, and they can only exist in laboratories. What we need are room-temperature superconducting materials required for superconducting quantum computers. "
"Mr. Lu, this is something that even our international colleagues cannot do. We cannot accept your request!" Feng Weijun's voice was filled with dissatisfaction, "You said that Hongxin can solve it, so what can Hongxin Group do? ?”
Lu Zixin said with a smile: "To make superconducting materials, you don't have to use alloy materials. Metal-like materials are also feasible. For example, using carbon element structures to make metal-like materials."
"You mean graphene? There's no way to make a quantum chip out of this material, right?"
"It's not graphene, but a new type of material that can fully realize room-temperature superconductivity and be industrially produced." Lu Zixin said, "If you don't mind, let's go take a look now."
"What? Is there such a material?" Several people from Taiguang Magnetic Materials looked surprised. If there really was such a material, the new materials industry should have reported it long ago!
But they have never heard of it, nor have cutting-edge institutions and companies in international new materials heard of it.
Lu Zixin had previously synthesized this new material in Hongxin's physics laboratory and handed it over to the staff to make superconducting quantum chips for testing. He had just received the results. The test results were quite satisfactory, and now he took them to visit.
The business car that Sima Jin and others were riding in followed Lu Zixin's car. They took out their mobile phones in tacit agreement and communicated in the WeChat group.
Wang Kai spoke first: "Boss, I think we can't negotiate this time. Hongxin Group's contract is too overbearing, and our company doesn't have the ability to develop the materials they want."
Feng Weijun: "Yes, we need room-temperature superconductivity, industrial production, and quantum computing. Each of these is a world-wide problem! Not to mention us, it is the Hongxin Group that has found top materials from the United States and island countries. Suppliers are terrible too!”
"I think the commercialization of their quantum computer will probably take a few years! It's best for our company not to sign this contract. If we invest in it then, we won't be able to get back our money in a few years, and we will be brought down!"
Sima Jin said doubtfully: "I understand this too, but Mr. Lu always said that they have a solution. If it is true, then we will only use production and processing, which is equivalent to signing a big customer, and we will not have to worry about it in the next few years. ah!"
Assistant Hu Cai persuaded: "Boss, they deliberately created this illusion to make us feel that we can invest."
"Hu Cai is right!" Chief Technical Director Wang Kai continued to speak, "There are too many tricks like this. When we go there, there will definitely be a group of experts and so on, bragging about how good their technology is, and it will be done soon. Realized. Then, nothing came out.”
"In the end, we have to invest in research and development ourselves. They want to transfer the research and development costs to us, and we can't be fooled!"
"Is this really true? Hongxin Group's reputation has always been very good, so why would it be so deceitful?" Sima Jin was shaken by what they said.
"Anyway, be more careful." Feng Weijun said, "We'll wait. As long as they can't produce results, we won't agree to anything they brag about. And I'm 100% sure that they have never solved this problem, otherwise why would they want to cooperate with us? ?”
"Okay, technically you are experts, I'll look at you later." Sima Jin agreed.
…
Soon, they arrived at one of Hongxin's research centers and were led to the testing laboratory.
"Mr. Lu, here is the chip, and here are the test results." A staff member handed him a superconducting quantum chip made of new materials and the test results.
Lu Zixin took a quick look and already had an idea. Reed Richards is indeed a genius scientist. The new material he gave not only overcomes the problem of ultra-temperature superconductivity, but also has many properties. The operation of superconducting quantum chips is smoother, and there is no problem in industrial production. .
"Guys, look!" Lu Zixin picked up the superconducting quantum chip and said, "This is the superconducting quantum chip made by our Hongxin using new materials. There is no problem with the chip performance at all."
"This new type of material is composed of an array of carbon nanospheres, integrating high-density qubits. It can perfectly maintain superconducting properties at room temperature without the need for low-temperature cooling."
"Not only that, our carbon extraction methods and material synthesis costs have also been greatly reduced, and we can fully realize industrial production!"
