I failed a course, and the system became my study supervisor.

Chapter 53 Apology
The army of public opinion on the Internet also changed its direction, and the popularity of Xiao Bibo's article once again reached its peak.

[Are there really such talented college students nowadays? ]

[Still don't believe it? The official media has spoken!]

If you look closely at Mr. Xiao's article, you'll find it riddled with logical loopholes. It's pure mindless trolling.

If undergraduates are this awesome, how are we graduate students supposed to survive?

【+1】

【…】

【+10086】

But the change in public opinion was not enough to make Xiao Bibo completely lose hope.

Until, on May 20th, a romantic day suitable for confessing one's love, the court's final ruling became the straw that broke the camel's back.

The court's verdict pointed out that the defendant Xiao Bibo's slander and defamation of Xu Ling and Magic City University were true, and he violated the reputation rights of Xu Ling and Magic City University.

The court required Xiao Bibo to delete the articles he had previously published and apologize to eliminate the impact. Finally, it also sentenced him to 100,000 yuan in compensation.

We often say that the judiciary requires independence.

However, public opinion does have a certain influence on judicial decisions because it can represent public opinion to a certain extent.

Before the China Daily published the article, the legal representative of Shanghai University and Xiao Bibo were in a stalemate in court.

But after public opinion changed, the court quickly made a judgment.

Of course, the whole thing is based on the fact that Xu Ling did not commit any fraud, and Xiao Bibo was indeed spreading rumors.

Xu Ling, the central figure in the incident, only appeared in court once or twice, with no significant changes to his daily life. He ultimately received 20,000 yuan in compensation.

The matter was brought to court, and no matter how much Xue Yan and Xu Guoqiang ignored Weibo, they now knew what their son had experienced.

"Lingzi, why didn't you tell your family about this big incident?"

Xue Yan's tone was somewhat angry.

Xu Ling replied nonchalantly, "It's not a big deal. The school is in charge."

"Isn't that enough? They've even gone to court!"

Xue Yan said hurriedly.

"Oh! Isn't it all over? What are you still worried about?"

Xu Ling said somewhat helplessly.

"Just a reminder to you. Next time something like this happens, call home immediately."

Xue Yan's tone left no room for doubt.

"Your mother is right."

Xu Guoqiang nodded on the side.

"ok, I get it."

Xu Ling had no choice but to agree.

……

By the evening of May 21st, Xu Ling and his team members had already arrived at the laboratory.

"That Xiao Bibo posted an apology video, do you want to watch it?"

Qin Qin asked while fiddling with her phone.

Are you apologizing now?
Not that great!
"Then let's see."

Xu Ling nodded, it wouldn't take more than a few minutes anyway.

Then, Qin Qin turned up the volume and placed the phone on the experimental table.

The rest of the group also gathered around the phone, watching with interest.

"I have deleted all previous articles and posts related to this incident, and I admit that I misjudged the truth of the matter.

I am deeply sorry for the negative impact it has caused to Mr. Xu from Shanghai University and the reputation of Shanghai University. I hope that Mr. Xu, the Shanghai University administration, and the majority of netizens can forgive me.

sorry!
......"

Xiao Bibo in the picture had a dark face and finished speaking this long paragraph with gritted teeth.

"What?! You call this an apology? A misjudgment? It's clearly a deliberate distortion of the facts!"

Huang Yunfeng was the first to discover the sudden change.

"Yeah, totally insincere."

Qin Qin continued. "It doesn't matter. He lost a hundred thousand dollars! How can we expect him to be in a good mood?"

Xu Ling said gloatingly.

"Eh? How much did you take?"

Qin Qin rolled her eyes and asked mysteriously.

"Not much, 20,000."

Xu Ling told the truth.

"Holy crap! Twenty thousand! I've never seen so much money in my life."

Qin Qin said with an exaggerated look on her face.

Without giving Xu Ling a chance to speak, Qin Qin blurted out: "Please eat!"

"The money was given to my mother."

"Cut~"

As a few people were chattering, the video on the phone came to an end.

The video freezes at the moment Xiao Bibo bends down and bows to the camera.

The cell phone was clamped on the experimental table, and coupled with Xiao Bibo's dark face, it looked like he was hanged on the gallows.

After taking a quick look, Xu Ling couldn't bear it anymore and quickly asked everyone to start the experiment.

……

"Let's measure some basic parameters first."

Xu Ling gave instructions.

What are the parameters of the measurement basis?
Ji Yun understood, so it was necessary to measure the volt-ampere characteristic curve?

With the volt-ampere characteristic curve, the battery's open circuit voltage, short circuit current, as well as power and efficiency can be clearly seen on the curve.

Without any delay, Ji Yun began to design the circuit.

The circuit for measuring the volt-ampere characteristic curve is very simple, and should have been learned in middle school. For Ji Yun, it was naturally a piece of cake.

Soon, the circuit was fully connected.

Xu Ling chose to use a xenon lamp to simulate sunlight to facilitate the control and measurement of light intensity and temperature.

Finally, the measurement of the volt-ampere characteristic curves under different light intensities was easily completed.

By comparing different curves, the team found that as the light intensity increased, the battery's volt-ampere characteristic curve had some obvious changes.

The most notable ones are the short-circuit current and open-circuit voltage, which increase significantly. Naturally, the output power will also increase significantly.

but--

There is another data that is somewhat surprisingly low.

That is the photoelectric conversion efficiency!
In this experimental measurement, the photoelectric conversion efficiency was only 0.0004%!

What is this concept?
This means that almost all the light that strikes the solar cell is wasted, providing no benefit.

If the previous experiments solved the problem of whether the battery can be used, then the question before us now is whether the battery is easy to use.

The answer is obvious.

Such a result undoubtedly poured cold water on everyone in the laboratory.

The fun that had originally been found in Xiao Bibo's apology was now gone, and everyone's face was extremely serious.

"Do you know what the problem is?"

Qin Qin asked in a low voice.

Xu Ling did not answer and fell silent.

What is the principle of generating electricity?
Xu Ling suddenly realized that the team had never seriously considered this issue in all their experiments. They seemed to have always treated the production of solar cells as a manual labor.

Of course this attitude is not acceptable!

“We’ve overlooked the most important thing!”

Xu Ling said seriously.

Everyone turned to look at Xu Ling with a puzzled look on their faces.

Xu Ling spoke word by word, "The real reason why electricity is generated! This is what we must study next!"
