8: Chapter 8: Vanmi will change the world!!

"Mr. Lei, are you sure you didn't introduce him wrong?" Zhou Guangming looked at the person in front of him, who was wearing a high school uniform, with a youthful face that didn't look much older than his own child.

The anticipation he had originally held felt like a huge joke, and the look he gave Lei Jun was full of skepticism.

A high school student came up with Fast Charging Technology?

It wasn't that he hadn't seen geniuses before; the university he graduated from was basically a gathering place for top students, so how could there be a shortage of geniuses? But university was different; it covered a wider range of knowledge and even involved hands-on practice under the guidance of professors.

Actually, it wasn't unheard of for someone to achieve major scientific research results in high school, but such examples were few and far between worldwide, let alone proposing Fast Charging Technology. If that were truly the case, this was no longer just the realm of a genius...

Could the person in front of him... be that extremely rare monster of a talent?

In his heart, Zhou Guangming truly hoped the other party was such an exception, but judging from the situation, while it was possible—after all, Lei Jun wasn't a fool—he really wasn't quite sure about the figure in front of him.

Compared to Zhou Guangming's skepticism, Li Guoqiang was much more certain; Lei Jun wouldn't joke about such things... It was just that everything before him was a bit too bizarre, and he needed time to adapt.

Just looking at Zhou Guangming beside him, in the tense atmosphere, Li Guoqiang couldn't help but speak up:

"This kid is still in his second year of high school, right?"

"You're underestimating him... He's in his third year..." Wu Chen interrupted before Lei Jun could respond, then paused slightly before continuing: "Hello, sirs. My name is Wu Chen. I'm Zhou Fan's classmate and good brother. I'm here to learn from your entrepreneurial experiences..."

Wu Chen had thought it through... It was an indisputable fact that Zhou Fan had been snatched away. He naturally wished for his brother to have better development, but he couldn't miss such a good opportunity!

Entrepreneurship, after all, requires stepping out and speaking up.

Although he had lost his most important business partner from the start, he was beginning to build his network in the business circle.

With his beaming smile and sincere face, even the skeptical Zhou Guangming found it hard to say anything harsh.

"There's a lot of cola in that refrigerator... If you want to drink some, you can help yourself..." Lei Jun pointed; some equipment had already been moved into the hall, including a large refrigerator.

"Sir, I'm not thirsty, I'll just listen in." Wu Chen unconsciously pursed his lips, but still firmly stayed behind.

"Fine."

Lei Jun's attention was obviously not on Wu Chen right now; his expectant gaze involuntarily fell upon Zhou Fan.

Meeting this gaze, Zhou Fan naturally understood the urgency in the other's heart, and then took a thick stack of documents out of his backpack.

"Some data on Fast Charging Technology, I've organized it..." Zhou Fan handed the thick stack of documents to Lei Jun.

"Let me introduce you. This is Zhou Guangming, Engineer Zhou, who will mainly assist you if he joins. This is Li Guoqiang, our future business manager." Lei Jun introduced them, took the documents and glanced at them, but couldn't understand much of the content, so he just handed some of the front pages to Zhou Guangming.

Zhou Guangming looked at his younger namesake, took the documents, and slightly furrowed his brow, not relaxing for a moment from the start.

He barely suppressed the murmurs in his heart. Starting a business with Lei Jun was actually something he had considered for a long time. His previous company was in its twilight years, and it was hard for him to find a stage to showcase his skills there, so he had to look forward, but that didn't mean he would choose just anything.

Coming here, he had only taken two days off from his company; until he found a better next step, he wouldn't easily resign.

"Let me take a look first..." Zhou Guangming said, implying something. His gaze fell on the thick stack of documents, and he turned the first page with a solemn expression.

On the first page, several large characters caught his eye; it was clear that this section was related to theory.

"Electrolyte Replacement Scheme..."

Zhou Guangming's eyes flashed slightly. He finished reading the first page roughly, then quickly flipped to the second page. When he reached the second page, he took his glasses out of his bag.

The rustling sound of page-turning made Li Guoqiang, who was standing nearby, pause in surprise. Although he trusted Lei Jun quite a bit, seeing Zhou Guangming's expression, he couldn't help but have doubts.

It was clear that these documents had substance; otherwise, they couldn't have caused such an expression on Zhou Guangming.

Li Guoqiang leaned in unconsciously, but the documents contained many technical terms and formulas, and he couldn't understand a single bit of it.

At this moment, Zhou Guangming suddenly looked up.

"This multi-tab structure, how much can it reduce the battery's internal resistance? Do you have specific data?"

Zhou Guangming's voice was somewhat high-pitched as he stared fixedly at Zhou Fan. The theories in the notebook shocked him enough, but most importantly, this was no longer just theory; he had already seen the possibility of implementation.

At this moment, he dared not treat Zhou Fan as a child anymore, and all of this was predicated on the fact that this notebook belonged to Zhou Fan.

But anyone who wasn't stupid knew that no one would easily give away such an important notebook; this was a notebook that would influence the mobile phone industry.

"It needs experimental verification. If it drops below 20mΩ, it basically meets the requirements for Fast Charging Technology..." Zhou Fan thought for a moment and said.

"Then, regarding this fast charging protocol, you must already have an idea about the more specific compatibility rules and encoding, right??"

"Yes, by forming compatibility rules through physical layer encoding, packet structure, device identification, and dynamic adjustment, plus encryption authentication and fault protection, and implementing it via BMC encoding... specifically transmitting via the CC line at 300kHz, for example, Header..."

"This framework for synchronous rectification technology... how do you intend to implement it..."

"..."

A faint excitement welled up in Zhou Guangming's eyes because, through this brief exchange, he truly began to be convinced of the feasibility of this Fast Charging Technology.

"It really is Fast Charging Technology..." Li Guoqiang, standing nearby, couldn't understand the technical exchange, but the successive changes in expressions did not affect his internal judgment.

A disruptive technology, one... researched by a high school student!

"Mr. Lei, where on earth did you find such a... big treasure?" Li Guoqiang couldn't control himself and asked Lei Jun.

"Chatted online..."

"..."

Li Guoqiang's expression froze, his face full of disbelief.

"It really was chatting online. Didn't I go back to Xinshan a year ago? It just so happened that he took on an outsourcing project from Xinshan a year ago, so we added each other as friends." Lei Jun was thinking about starting a business at the time, and he figured it wouldn't hurt to chat with more technicians.

He couldn't easily poach the technicians inside Xinshan, so he set his sights on Zhou Fan, but this chatting lasted for a year.

Now, Lei Jun only felt fortunate about how wise his decision back then had been.

The most important thing for a technology company is core technology, and now, even though Fanmi wasn't officially established yet, it already had core competitiveness. Of course, this was on the condition that Zhou Fan could join; any team would want an engineer who joins a startup with core technology like this.

By then, spending a lot of money to poach some technicians would immediately form a team, thereby getting on the right track.

As for marketing ability, in this circle, he believed he was no worse than anyone else, and coupled with Li Guoqiang's very rich design and marketing planning experience, Lei Jun seemed to have already seen a rising internet company in the near future.

"Isn't the internet all about flirting..." Li Guoqiang muttered subconsciously.

But these words were not heard by the excited Lei Jun. At this moment, Lei Jun, immersed in his fantasies, was already full of confidence.

"Old Li... We might change the world in the future!!!"

Lei Jun's whisper pulled Li Guoqiang back to his thoughts.

A teenager with monster-like scientific research ability!

To have come up with such disruptive Fast Charging Technology in high school... and there was also the mature, steady hardware technology master who possessed rich experience and a pursuit of excellent quality.

In business... Lei Jun had rich management experience and many high-quality connections, and there was no need to worry about funds...

He once had a heart full of passion too... Who didn't have a dream of changing the world? It's just that reality always had too many constraints and helplessness.

But right now... perhaps, it really is possible!

"Fanmi will surely change the world!"

Li Guoqiang also couldn't help but murmur, his tone full of fanaticism.
