As the momentous test was on the cusp of commencing, a profound silence descended upon the scene, hushing even the technicians. All eyes converged on Huang Guang, Hu Nan, and their companions, each pair of eyes brimming with anticipation and anxiety.

Huang Guang, amidst this palpable tension, offered a subtle nod of affirmation.

In stark contrast to the quietude surrounding them, Hu Nan's voice rang out resoundingly, breaking the silence. "Commence the test!" he declared, his voice carrying far more than its volume suggested, for within him, a tempest of nerves swirled.

This, after all, was no ordinary endeavor; it marked the dawn of a new era with the advent of the graphene-aluminum battery, a product that promised to be epoch-making. Its entry into the market was poised to set off a sensational wave, an innovation unparalleled in its grandeur.

The world's first of its kind!

With these profound thoughts in mind, the critical phase of testing was underway. Initial routines, such as measurements of weight, dimensions, and temperature ranges, took precedence. However, it was the subsequent tests that held paramount importance: the total battery power and maximum current capacity.

Hu Nan thundered, "Initiate the maximum current test!" The testing instrument's display screen promptly sprang to life, its data dancing to reveal the battery's maximum output current.

The numbers oscillated until they finally settled at 20,065 mA. Hu Nan, relieved, nodded in approval, while Ning Zetao added, "Old Hu, it impeccably aligns with our design specifications."

Indeed, this battery had been meticulously crafted with a maximum output current of 20,000 mA, a meticulously calculated value that left no room for extravagance.

Ecstatic cheers erupted from the technicians; some even broke into a chorus of applause. To them, this seemingly unassuming battery, no larger than a standard mobile phone battery, had defied convention by delivering an astonishing 20,000 mAh current. A far cry from the 5,000mAh, 7,500mAh, or even 10,000mAh capacities found in the average power banks on the market.

The revelation of this small battery's capabilities left one question looming large: What of its power?

Power, in this context, held greater significance than current. It held the key to the battery's energy reservoir. In the realm of batteries, bigger was unequivocally better. The standard power range for a fully charged mobile phone battery was generally between 10 watt-hours (WH) and 30 WH, while power banks often exceeded 30 WH. Through the ingenious combination of multiple lithium battery packs, some even surpassed 50 WH.

The collective anticipation now shifted towards the graphene-aluminum battery's power rating.

All eyes, once again, turned to Huang Guang and Hu Nan, awaiting their verdict. Though Huang Guang's demeanor remained composed, beneath the veneer lay a turbulent sea of emotions. "In for a penny, in for a pound," he mused.

Hu Nan's voice resounded once more, "Initiate the power test!" With bated breath, he watched as the display screen flickered to life, the data gradually ascending. Hearts raced, silently pleading for a slightly higher figure.

Finally, the data settled at 312 WH.

A chorus of astonishment erupted in the laboratory. Despite being aware of the 300 WH design standard, many found it incredulous that such a diminutive battery had achieved nearly a third of a kilowatt-hour.historical

It was a moment of euphoria and jubilation, a moment where the hearts of Huang Guang, Hu Nan, Ning Zetao, and their team could finally rest easy.

Ning Zetao, overcome with excitement, gripped Hu Nan's hand tightly, exclaiming, "Old Hu, we've done it! We've succeeded!"

Hu Nan, his voice laden with triumph, concurred, "Indeed, we've succeeded!"

This was, without a doubt, a resounding success. Hu Nan's team had delivered an extraordinary achievement—a small battery with a whopping 312 WH capacity.

The good news was swiftly relayed to Liu Yong, who received it with enthusiastic commendations. Yet, he remained pragmatic, inquiring about the timeline for large-scale industrial production.

With unwavering confidence, Hu Nan asserted that it could be achieved within three months, a promise that, given their past performance, carried more weight than mere words.

But Liu Yong, with his acute foresight, contemplated the need for the Global New Energy Group's establishment to hasten, along with the rapid construction of Yihao factory.

In a different corner of the business world, Bi Qingyun, seated in his office at Albatron International, leaned back, cigarette in hand. The report from Song Jianwei had arrived, bearing unfavorable news regarding negotiations with a stubborn western supplier.

Half a month earlier, Song Jianwei had ventured overseas, at Bi Qingyun's behest, to discuss battery imports. However, the Western supplier had proven uncompromising, making negotiations an uphill battle. After more than ten days of fruitless efforts, Song Jianwei had returned to China, bearing the grim tidings.

Bi Qingyun, after finishing his cigarette, made a resolute decision: if you can't get what you want from Butcher Zhang, you'll have to make do with other options. Domestic batteries suddenly occupied his thoughts, and he began to ponder which manufacturer's battery might serve as a suitable substitute.

Meanwhile, at Zhang Kee Seafood Restaurant, Liu Yong expressed his concern to Ding Wen, who had hinted at returning to manage the family business. "Are you certain about taking over the family business and assisting your father?" he inquired.

Ding Wen nodded earnestly, explaining, "I've had my fill of leisure, and I can't let my father bear the burden alone. He's encountered some challenges lately, and I must lend a hand."

It was a classic case of returning to the family fold after satisfying one's wanderlust—a decision many would envy. Yet, Liu Yong was not envious, but genuinely concerned. "What challenges has your father faced? The chip issue should have been resolved by now."

Ding Wen, however, skillfully redirected the conversation, revealing his frustration. "This Western supplier is shameless; they've increased their prices by a staggering 20%."

The revelation shed new light on the situation. Liu Yong, familiar with Qingyun International's King Dragon mobile phone, understood the magnitude of this battery problem.

A wry smile played across his lips as he made a cryptic promise, "Come to my office tomorrow, and I'll give you a little gift—a solution to your problem."

The successful development of the graphene-aluminium battery cleared the path for industrial production. Liu Yong contemplated a product launch event to introduce this revolutionary battery.

However, fate had a different plan, and he was relieved of the burden of organizing such an event, allowing him to revel in newfound freedom.
