24: Chapter 24 Witnessing a Miracle

The press conference began. A beautiful woman in a red gown walked onto the stage, holding a microphone.

Huanyu Technology staff on both sides of the stage cheered enthusiastically.

“Wow! General Manager Su is so beautiful today!”

“General Manager Su is so pretty and domineering!”

The audience below also stopped their murmuring; clearly, the press conference had officially begun.

Su Rou walked to the center, raised the microphone, and, without a hint of stage fright, addressed the audience:

“Distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen, and all the industry leaders, today is the day of Huanyu Technology's new product launch. I am Su Rou, General Manager of Huanyu Technology, and I welcome everyone’s presence.”

“I believe you have already seen, on the internet and in the invitations sent to you, that the new product we are launching today is a brand-new clean energy battery.”

“Its energy storage and discharge efficiency are 5-10 times that of the current mainstream ternary lithium batteries.”

Immediately, sparse but intense discussions erupted below the stage. The vast majority of people were there to watch a joke.

Because currently on Earth, such technology does not exist, nor have materials with several times the energy storage efficiency of ternary lithium batteries been found.

Even if such materials existed, they would be extremely difficult to produce, and the enormous cost would make them unsuitable for power batteries.

“Everyone, please quiet down. I know that everyone is skeptical about our product. Now, please welcome Mr. Chen Yu, Chairman of Huanyu Technology, to the stage to explain our new product! Let's give him a warm welcome!”

The Huanyu Technology staff on both sides of the stage were stunned. They knew there was a mysterious big boss, but they had never seen him.

Now that the big boss was about to go on stage, all these staff members became excited.

Regardless, he was their boss, so they took the lead and started applauding.

The guests in the audience were influenced and also clapped symbolically a few times.

Then, a young man in a suit with a tall, straight figure walked onto the stage.

A collective gasp went through the audience. None of them had expected that the chairman of this company would be such a young man.

Some female internet celebrities in the audience shrieked when they saw Chen Yu walk onto the stage.

“Wow! So handsome! I didn't expect such a young man to already be the chairman of a technology company!”

“Even if the product fails today, this young man is so handsome; it’s worth the trip!”

Chen Yu went on stage, took the microphone from Su Rou’s hand, and then Su Rou handed the stage over to Chen Yu.

After bowing to everyone, Chen Yu raised the microphone and said:

“You must be very surprised, how could a young man in his early twenties like me be the chairman of this company.”

Some laughter erupted from the audience.

“Actually, I am a researcher, and I have now developed a new type of battery. When I say its name, I believe those in the know will understand its difficulty!”

“That is the Heavy Hydrogen Ion Battery!”

Immediately, some self-media in the tech industry and representatives from new energy vehicle companies in the audience gasped.

They had all researched this technology, but without exception, all attempts ended in failure.

The technical difficulty was too great; even with several more decades, humanity might not be able to develop it.

They didn't expect this young man to claim that he had developed the Heavy Hydrogen Ion Battery right off the bat.

The voices of doubt from the audience grew louder. Chen Yu pressed his hands down, signaling everyone to quiet down.

“Are you not convinced? If that’s the case, then let’s look at our product.”

With a wave of Chen Yu’s hand, two objects covered in black cloth slowly rose on either side of the stage. Judging by their outlines, they appeared to be two cars.

Once they had fully risen, Chen Yu walked to one car and pulled back the black cloth.

The car inside was revealed. This was a new generation of new energy vehicles designed by the intelligent system based on Earth human aesthetics.

Its exterior was futuristic and stylish, and its interior was luxurious and technologically advanced.

Immediately, many media outlets and car manufacturer representatives exclaimed in admiration.

Just based on the car's exterior design, it could be sold to some car manufacturers for a lot of money.

Chen Yu walked to the car, opened the door, and took a small hand from inside.

Xiao Jiazi, wearing a sexy black slit gown, stepped out of the car with a pair of dazzling fair legs, immediately attracting the attention of all the men in the audience.

Xiao Jiazi walked out of the car and stood beside it, acting as a car model.

Her perfect figure and face immediately invigorated everyone.

Chen Yu timely joked,

“Everyone, don’t look at the person, look at the car!”

This immediately caused a burst of laughter in the venue.

“Alright, I should introduce our product.”

“The car you see here is the first new energy vehicle developed by Huanyu Technology, equipped with a Level 3 Heavy Hydrogen Ion Battery, with a range of over 2000 kilometers on a single charge.”

As soon as Chen Yu announced the range, the entire venue erupted!

“How is this possible? Impossible! There’s no battery that can have a range of over 2000 kilometers, unless you use a large truck to carry the batteries!”

“What a joke! The volume of a sedan is so small; even if it were all batteries, it couldn't last that long!”

Voices of doubt rose one after another!

Chen Yu had long anticipated this scene.

After the commotion in the audience died down slightly, Chen Yu continued to speak.

“I know you don’t believe it. Actually, the data I just mentioned was the minimum range. Our average range is over 3000 kilometers.”

Then came another round of skepticism, talk of pipe dreams, and so on.

Chen Yu waved his hand, and another covered object rose onto the stage.

“Everyone, look. This is our battery unit. Its volume is about one-third of a traditional ternary lithium battery, and its weight is also one-third, yet its range is 5-10 times that of traditional batteries.”

As Chen Yu introduced the data alone on stage, almost no one in the audience believed him!

Only Xia Yueshu, in the first row, had a golden gleam in her eyes. Even if the whole world didn't believe Chen Yu right now,

she did. The experts she had found, when deciphering the purification equipment, had asserted that this technology was at least 50 years ahead of Earth.

It was highly possible for a technology company capable of building such equipment to produce this kind of battery.

Chen Yu instructed the intelligent system to play a promotional video for the Heavy Hydrogen Ion Battery on the large screen.

The discussion in the audience remained intense, mostly filled with doubts.

Some representatives of car companies even left in a huff, claiming it was a waste of their time and that such technology simply did not exist in this world.

Chen Yu saw all these situations.

It seemed that his battery would be very difficult for these companies to believe until they had tested it.

However, Chen Yu had also brought a trump card today!

There's a famous saying: if you want someone to agree to your request, give them a bigger request first, and then they might accept the smaller, original request.

Zhou Zheng, the representative from the Ministry of National Defense in the front row, and Liu Qiang, the representative from the Ministry of Science and Technology, had fluctuating expressions.

Zhou Zheng had completely lost patience and said,

“Old Liu, are you still going to stay here? I’m leaving. This kid is clearly bragging. I don’t think they even know how to scam money. Like this, who would be willing to invest in them?”

Liu Qiang also sighed, preparing to get up and leave.

On stage, Chen Yu’s expression remained calm. He just quietly watched those who were leaving.

After about ten minutes, less than half of the people remained.

Chen Yu raised the microphone and spoke to the entire audience again:

“Thank you, everyone. At least nearly half of you stayed. You will witness a miracle!”
