    50/200 is 25%, not 4%. Let’s fix this title:

    “Technology developed in other countries taken credit for by a Chinese company that has a nonviable product promised to eventually be the best, according to imaginary numbers.”

      Literally the first paragraph of the article explains that it is 4% of the cost:

      Chinese scientists say they have developed a new solid-state battery technology to match cutting-edge performance at just 4 per cent of the cost.

      You seem to be confusing the cost of materials with the overall cost of production.

          None of these criticisms are rational. This response to an otherwise boilerplate news article speaks to an extreme anti-China bias.

          Just because you feel threatened by Chinese technological developments doesn’t warrant baselessly acting as though they are hoaxes.

          What does anything of that have to do with you quoting 50/200 as 25% not 4% 😂

              So you thought you’d add your own inaccurate numbers, okay.
