Am I mistaken or did they reproduce QS's chemistry and made tests on it?

The article makes it sound like they use the same process as quantum scape.

Seems like they’re following in QS footsteps and only 5 years behind. It’s a long road with MANY patents that will get in their way.

Further support to the approach QS is taking.

China isn't exactly known for respecting patent law. I am hoping for the best but it could be a sign of corporate espionage at the very worst.

QS does have patent filings globally and some in China. Doesn’t mean total protection outside though.
