Fast time travel: I sell mobile phones in another world

Chapter 207 Chapter 206, No matter how good the technology is, it depends on whether it adapts to the times
Tang Yan didn't know what Weiwei was thinking, so he said what he did that night without reservation.

Weiwei opened her mouth wide after hearing this.

How could she have forgotten that the main god system has all kinds of information from the future!

Mistake, misstep!
Weiwei asked cautiously: "Then your project will be completed soon?"

"Not so fast." Tang Yan was a little frustrated, "There are too many places to do experiments, and it is much more difficult than I imagined. But with the data, it will definitely be much faster than without the data. If I don't have the data, I may be in 10 or 20 years. Can't research it."

She booked a hotel for a week, thinking she could finish writing her thesis within a week.But the work of studying physical materials is much more complicated than the technical process of photolithography machine, and it may take about 10 days anyway.

Weiwei patted her chest in relief.

She was misled by Tang Yan's 10 to 20 years, and the not-so-quick summary, and thought that the project needs to be calculated in years.

She swallowed all the bread in her mouth, and said boldly with a wave of her little hand.

"Go! I'll accompany you to do the experiment!"

……

Tang Yan took the note approved by Zhao Xifu and came to the laboratory. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Gao Jiang inside.

The coolies came quite early!
Tang Yan immediately showed a hypocritical smile, took out the free bread and milk provided by the hotel, handed it to Gao Jiang, and greeted him enthusiastically.

"Morning!"

Gao Jiang looked at the bread and milk in his hand, feeling extremely complicated.

When he was chasing girls before, he often gave them breakfast.

But this time, not only was he completely forgotten, he was also given breakfast by a girl.

But so what?
Gao Jiang unceremoniously took the bread and milk and ate it.

Tang Yan is no longer an elementary school girl, but the team leader!
It's so strange for the team leader to bring breakfast to a team member who works hard like him!

Gao Jiang has accepted his fate in his heart, and has clearly set himself a position.

After Gao Jiang finished his breakfast, Tang Yan stretched out his hand unceremoniously.

"What about your previous experimental data and stage results?"

Although Gao Jiang can become a doctor under the hands of an academician, although he looks a little stupid, he is indeed not an ordinary person.

But in one night, he sorted out all the data and handed the USB flash drive to Tang Yan.

Tang Yan opened the laptop he brought over, plugged in the USB flash drive, and looked carefully.

I can't help but be a little surprised to see this.

The experimental direction of the original team turned out to be correct! ?
Using the "directed deformation assembly" method, a high-performance material with a bionic structure is developed.

Although both the experiment and the theory are in the intermediate stage, as long as they are not disbanded and persist, sooner or later they will be able to produce "second-generation plastics".

"Second-generation plastics" are composites of cellulose nanofibers and titanium dioxide-coated mica sheets to prepare high-performance sustainable structural materials with bionic structures.

Its mechanical and thermal properties are better than the original plastic.

Just because the cost is higher than real plastic, there is still a lot to improve.

Tang Yan shook his head regretfully.

As long as the funds are sufficient, the original team will be able to produce results after another year or two of research. What a pity!
And in Tang Yan's view, the plastics used now seem to be cheap, but that doesn't take into account the cost of environmental protection.

Considering the cost of disposing of plastic, it is definitely higher than the cost of "second generation plastic".

But the capital market can't tolerate Tang Yan's naive and idealized thinking.

If you want to really replace plastic, it will be promoted on a large scale.The new product will have to be at least as expensive to produce as real plastic.

Even just being flat isn't enough.

Because it takes a process for everyone to accept new things, and factories need money to buy new equipment.The cost of materials may be the same, but the high upfront cost will make promotion difficult.

Although it has nothing to do with Tang Yan whether the promotion is difficult or not, she just needs to research new materials to replace plastic.Even making "second-generation plastics" according to the original team's ideas is a remarkable achievement.

Not to mention the graduation thesis of a graduate student, the thesis of a doctoral graduation is enough.

But even though Tang Yan has lived in the small world for many years, he is still the passionate young man under 20 years old in his heart, full of idealistic ideas.

After plastic is discarded, it is difficult to degrade, causing continuous environmental pollution, which is a big problem.

Given this opportunity, Tang Yan was willing to solve this problem directly, rather than muddle along for the sake of graduation.

She carefully analyzed the "third-generation plastics" and "fourth-generation plastics" in the materials provided by the Lord God system.

The technical difficulty of the third generation is lower than that of the fourth generation, and its performance is better than that of the original plastic, and it cannot be degraded even if it is buried in the soil.

However, it can be destroyed by incineration without any harmful gas, which is absolutely environmentally friendly.In the era of widespread use of three generations of plastics, there are special robots responsible for collecting and destroying waste plastics.

But now, it can only rely on labor, and the specific cost needs to be calculated by Tang Yan.

By the fourth generation of plastics, times have changed dramatically.

Due to the advancement of science and technology, the division of materials is more detailed.Most plastic products are replaced by other better materials.

The so-called fourth-generation plastics only specialize in ductility and thermal performance, and are used to make plastic bags.

Not to mention the technical difficulty, it can only solve an environmental protection problem of plastic bags.For other plastic products, other plastics need to be developed.

However, the advantage is that it does not need to be collected and incinerated, and it can be degraded as long as it is buried in the soil for one year, which greatly reduces the cost of subsequent treatment.

It's just that since this thing can be degraded by the land, it proves that the performance is not as stable as the original plastic.If you leave it in your home for 10 years or so and don't take good care of it, plastic can become brittle.

The reason why the fourth generation of plastics will be promoted on a large scale is because at that time, the interstellar era has entered, and people have space equipment.

The fourth-generation plastic is only for temporary use, or to hold the garbage cleaned by housekeeping robots, and it doesn't matter how long it is used.

Tang Yan frowned.

Both plastic alternatives have advantages.

There is no processing cost for the fourth generation, and the cost will definitely be much lower.However, the technology is difficult and cannot completely replace the current plastics.

The third generation can perfectly replace the current plastic, but it only needs to deal with the cost.If it is not disposed of, it is no different from the current plastic in terms of environmental protection.

Adding this part of the processing cost, I wonder if the third-generation plastics still have a price advantage?
Without the price advantage, it would be extremely difficult to promote it.

For the first time, Tang Yan deeply understood that not all future technologies can perfectly adapt to the current era.

In many cases, the strides are too big, but it can't adapt to everything that is supported now.

Although encountering difficulties, Tang Yan is not someone who backs down easily.

The first step at the beginning of the project is to calculate the cost first!

Among the data provided by Gao Jiang for the original team's research, there is the current cost of producing plastic products, which saves Tang Yan a lot of trouble.

So what Tang Yan and Gao Jiang have to do now is to visit various garbage dumps to see how much it costs to collect and incinerate plastic products!
