Return to 78: Why are all the Americans panicking about doing scientific research?

For a period of time, Longguo set its sights on the Black Continent region.

The fact that Longguo can become one of the five major countries is largely due to the contributions of the countries in Black Continent.

But from the perspective of economic development, the region can provide very limited help to Longguo.

The oil-rich desert area is Longguo's most important external foothold at this stage.

It is also a battleground for Northern Machinery Company.

"According to my understanding, the reason why the United States and the Soviet Union have influence in the desert that other countries do not have is that they are superpowers and have a large number of allies and satellite countries behind them."

"Secondly, they infiltrate their influence into the upper echelons of these countries by selling goods and providing military aid."

"The Soviet Union exported weapons to some desert countries, allowing its influence to take root in the desert. As for the United States..."

"We need to export weapons to desert countries and sell them various urgently needed goods. If we want to leave our influence in the desert, we must also provide some of the urgently needed goods for desert countries."

"In other words, the goods that the Western and Eastern camps cannot provide."

"Solar power generation technology is our fist to open up the situation."

After these words were spoken, everyone present looked at each other.

Everyone focused their attention on Lin Kaifeng.

Everyone is familiar with solar power generation technology.

Decades ago, scientists proposed using solar energy to generate electricity.

Store the absorbed solar energy and convert it into electrical energy.

Many years ago, relevant departments of Longguo organized technical personnel to conduct research on this technology.

The United States, the West, and island countries are even researching this technology as a strategic technology.

The island nation even proposed to further refine solar energy technology and convert the absorbed solar energy into batteries.

However, there are too many problems that affect the implementation of solar energy technology.

Nearly a decade of research has been conducted in China, but the results achieved are minimal.

The project required huge investment, but the results were very unsatisfactory.

A leader from the Sixth Ministry of Machine Building said, "Comrade Lin Kaifeng, your Northern Machinery Company has never been involved in the field of solar power generation research. What guarantee do you have that the state will second you a large number of relevant technical personnel and that your company can make a technological breakthrough in this technology within a year?"

Lin Kaifeng calmed down his complicated mood and said, "Reporting to the leader, Northern Machinery Company will mobilize a large number of manpower, material resources, and financial resources, and with the assistance of technical personnel, conduct concentrated research and development."

"At the same time, relevant technical information of the project was absorbed from abroad. Many countries have taken solar energy technology as a strategic technology research, but after so much time, they have not achieved any major scientific research results."

"It's called strategic technology, but I think it has long since become a useless technology that is not valued. We absorb technology from abroad and introduce information about solar energy technology. Other countries will never interfere. This is one of our convenient conditions."

"Secondly, the most difficult part of any scientific technology is to go from 0 to 1. No research can be completed in an instant."

"What I can guarantee is that I will do my best and live up to my mission."

Lin Kaifeng said seriously.

Solar energy technology is an important foundation for Longguo to open up the situation and gain a foothold in the desert.

The desert countries have neither a shortage of money nor a shortage of countries that want to interact with them.

What is lacking is electricity.

Sufficient electrical energy.

Once Longguo masters solar power generation technology, it will become Longguo's core product.

If the desert countries want to solve the problem of electricity scarcity, they must contact the Dragon Country.

The impact of the two oil crises on the world can be recorded in history.

The industrial development of countries around the world continues to be closely related to oil.

If the third or fourth oil crisis occurs, no matter how strong the industrial development of each country is, it will inevitably be affected.

When a new energy technology emerges, even if this technology cannot completely replace oil, it can solve some of the problems caused by the oil crisis.

Immediately, leaders of various departments began to whisper.

Discussing the feasibility of Lin Kaifeng's plan.

During the dozens of minutes of introduction, Lin Kaifeng told everyone at a glance how rich the desert countries are.

How huge is the wealth of the royal family.

It is bold to predict that in the next 20 to 30 years, half of the disputes and wars that occur among mankind will be related to oil.

Based on the desert, we will accelerate the comprehensive development of Longguo.

Closer ties with the desert countries.

Once the Dragon Kingdom has established a certain degree of influence in the desert countries.

The United States and the Soviet Union can export arms to the desert countries, and so can Dragon Country.

Compared with the two superpowers, Long Country has inherent advantages in arms exports.

The Dragon Kingdom has never sought hegemony, and the weapons it exports do not carry any additional conditions.

Out of their own interests, the Soviet Union and the United States would export weapons and provide military assistance to any country.

There are bound to be a lot of additional terms behind a business.

Establish military bases and deploy military personnel.

No country wants to see the presence of foreign armed forces on its territory.

When everyone stopped talking, Lin Kaifeng said sincerely: "Let's take a step back and assume that the solar power generation technology research led by my company fails, it can still improve our research results and R&D experience in this technology to a certain extent."

"There is a saying that goes, when a whale dies, all things come to life."

"It means that once the dominant whale in the ocean dies, the various nutrients produced by the whale's death can breed a large number of new species and form a huge deep-sea food chain."

"By assisting Northern Machinery Company, researchers from various units will study solar power generation technology and other technologies derived from it. In the years to come, my country's science and technology will surely see a spurt of development."

The meeting lasted until the evening.

The heads of various departments left the venue one after another. Wang Changsheng walked up to Lin Kaifeng, who was sweating profusely, and patted his shoulder with a concerned expression.

Pour another cup of tea.

"Comrade Lin Kaifeng, your report today has given me and many other comrades a sense of sudden enlightenment. You are right. We really know very little about desert areas."

"I only know that the desert world is an important key to the competition between the United States and the Soviet Union, but I don't know that these countries have so much wealth."

Lin Kaifeng drank the tea in one gulp and raised his hand to wipe the water stains from the corners of his mouth.

"Minister, we always talk about borrowing chickens to lay eggs. Borrowing chickens to lay eggs is not only about attracting foreign investment and using foreign cooperation to strengthen our economic and industrial development, but we also need to get investment from foreigners in another way."

"Investment is different from OEM production. It is a way of taking shares to assist us in scientific research and construction."

"Whether it is light industry or heavy industry, electricity support is indispensable."

"From a military perspective, drones have an unparalleled combat effect on desert countries that cannot be matched by other weapons."
