"So, Yifan, I said, if you can really get the processing technology of this special metal material, then we will be developed. The usefulness of this thing is too great. The domestic market gap alone is estimated to be tens of billions, or even hundreds of billions of dollars a year."

Li Guangli's face was flushed at this time, as if he was drunk, but only those who knew him would know that he was not drunk too much, but happy.

"Ah? So many?"

After hearing this number, even Li Yifan's father Li Liqiang couldn't sit still at this time. It turned out that he was just thinking about the investment in this thing, but he never expected that the demand for this thing would be so large.

"That's not? This is still a small matter. If you want to go to the big, it's not impossible to reach trillions. The one I mentioned to Yifan just now is screws and nuts, which are necessities in the industry. In fact, if we spare no expense in China, we can do this, but the yield rate has always been low. In fact, as long as we study the heat treatment process and improve the smelting process, we can do it. Then I'm talking about it in the big matter, and not mentioning aircraft engines, ship engines, etc., I will talk about boilers for you."

Li Guangli is really not a hype about this knowledge. Although Li Yifan's elder brother-in-law seems to be a rough man, he is actually very thoughtful and likes to study everything he does. He likes to be serious, so he knows a lot.

In addition, over the past year, his business has grown bigger and bigger, and he has come into contact with more people. Therefore, he has also learned a lot of things at different levels.

Speaking of this boiler, it was a while ago when he was having dinner with a friend from a power plant. He heard from him that he is just for Li Yifan and Li Liqiang to learn and sell it now.

Li Yifan listened with his ears, but when Li Liqiang heard about the boiler, he looked disdainful.

"Cut, isn't it just a broken boiler? There are several in our house, and it's always heating?"

"Dad, what I'm talking about is not an ordinary boiler. It's a super-supercritical boiler dedicated to power plants."

"What? The boiler is on the street? What's this thing? I've heard of it for the first time?"

"Hi! Dad, it's not a rush to the street, it's a super-supercritical boiler."

Li Guangli emphasized this way, and Li Liqiang knew that this thing was not an ordinary person. He always felt a little awe of high-tech things, so he didn't say much.

"You all know how electric heating plants generate electricity. They heat water into steam and then drive the steam turbine to generate electricity. However, before the water becomes gaseous, there will be a state of water vapor. Modern scientific research has found that under a certain pressure and a certain temperature, the water vapor process before water is converted into pure steam can be completely omitted, that is, pure water becomes pure steam. This can greatly improve the efficiency of liquid-gas conversion, reduce fuel, and improve power generation efficiency. That is, improve the heat conversion rate. This was discovered by foreign countries in the 1950s, and then they also began to study it. In the 1980s, they created this supercritical boiler, and now they have begun to enter a super-supercritical state..."

Although my elder brother-in-law doesn’t talk much, once he mentions something he is interested in, he will definitely be able to speak in a constant manner.

In fact, when he mentioned this super-supercritical boiler, Li Yifan couldn't help but be stunned. He really didn't expect that his brother-in-law would have such insights and even know such good things.

In fact, this super-supercritical boiler has always been a heart-wrenching problem for the country in later generations. As we all know, our country is a major thermal power country. With the rapid development of the country's economy, the demand for electricity consumption is increasing every year.

Even after the Three Gorges Dam and several nuclear power plants were built, there is still a serious shortage of power supply in my country once the peak of electricity consumption every year.

In this way, in order to solve the problem of power shortage, my country has to build a large number of thermal power plants.

However, due to the backwardness of boiler technology, my country's thermoelectric conversion efficiency has always been maintained at a level of about 38%, which is really a bit backward compared to the thermal power conversion level of developed countries in the world.

You should know that in Germany, Western Europe and Denmark, the conversion rate of people's hot spots can be almost 50%, and the gap here is too big.

As early as the 1990s, people have started to use supercritical boilers. Now they have begun to upgrade like supercritical boilers. But we have only achieved the state of subcritical boilers, and the gap with them has been doubled!

"Well, how do you say it? This supercritical boiler has increased the thermoelectric conversion efficiency of the thermoelectric boiler we use now by 7 to 8%, saving more than 6,000 tons of coal burning every year. If you can achieve a supersupercritical boiler, then the thermoelectric conversion efficiency of the supercritical boiler will be increased by 7 to 8%, and coal burning will save more. However, our domestic technology is not good, but the materials are still not good at the root..."

Speaking of this, Li Guangli shook his head in a silence. Li Yifan was nothing to do when he was insidious. After all, he was very familiar with this super critical boiler. After all, he and his friends had been born and died in the Nordic generation for the technology of this super critical boiler, but this secret made my father's appetite very full.

"Hi! Guangli, I said, don't keep it behind me, hurry up..."

"Hehe! Dad. It's not that I keep it insincere. Actually, it's because I know so much. I just went to have dinner with Director Li of the thermal power plant that day, and I heard from someone who mentioned it. He said that they are also building this supercritical boiler now. With the current domestic technology and supercritical boiler, let's not think about it. We will conquer the supercritical first. In fact, what I said about this is not to emphasize this boiler, how awesome, what I want to talk about is the materials used in this supercritical boiler."

When Li Guangli said this, Li Yifan couldn't help but prick up his ears. In his previous life, he and his partners, in northern Europe and Denmark countries, were once born and died and bleed on the streets, just to get the information about their super critical boilers. Later, the information was obtained, but it also paid a very serious price.

Besides, he was a special agent at that time and was not very interested in these industrial data, so he didn't know much about the materials to be used for this supercritical boiler and the quotation for this material.

But now that I am going to build this special metal material, and now, I think that this so-called supercritical boiler can use such special metal material, then in this way, the market will definitely have a broad future.

"You can tell me quickly, don't keep it aside?"

My dad was very anxious when he heard this.

"Hehe, then I will continue to say that day, I heard from Director Li that the most critical part of this kind of boiler is one of the parts called water-cooled walls. I don't know what this thing is for, I just know that behind a board is a spiral water pipe for water-cooling. However, we cannot produce this thing ourselves in China, because it is to withstand pressure and high temperatures, so we must import from abroad. The main thing we import is from Japan. I heard that this is the technology of the Japanese old Mitsubishi in the 1980s, and it is long outdated now. But even so, importing such water pipes costs 100,000 yuan per meter long, and a sheet of A4 paper is about the same price as a Range Rover..."

As soon as Li Guangli said this, Li Liqiang on the opposite side sipped out all the tea that had just entered his mouth.

“How many? How many?”

"I don't know much about the specifics. Anyway, I heard from Director Li that the cost of a water-cooled wall alone will cost tens of millions. The complete set of boiler equipment will be even more amazing, absolutely hundreds of millions..."

Not only Li Liqiang stopped talking, but Li Yifan stopped talking.

It is self-evident how big the domestic thermal power market is now, which can be seen from the rising coal prices recently.

And looking at the current situation, many thermal power plants will definitely be built in the next few years. Will these thermal power plants still use the backward old boiler technology like this now?

Now domestic scientific researchers are just using the supercritical boiler of public relations. Is it possible that ten years later, we can’t even make a supercritical boiler?

I guess it can be done. After all, we are not short of money. At worst, we can just introduce a set from abroad and disassemble the reverse research. But the difficulty lies in that even if you know how to do it, you just can't do it because you don't have the excellent materials like others.

This is also the sorrow of Chinese scientific researchers. Later generations Li Yifan and others were born and died in Northern Europe, just for the information on special boards and pipes.

If you do this kind of special metal material business in this life, let alone do business with the military. As long as you can get such materials, then dealing with these thermal power plants will be enough for you to make money.

When Li Yifan thought of this, he was immediately moved. It seemed that he had to go to Japan.

After all, these days, Japanese people have too many good things in their hands that they want, especially the things on this material...
