0716 The Times Have Taken Another Small Step Forward
The director of the institute and citizen scientists gave Lynch a very nice "theory test paper". As for how much of the data in these theories can be realized, they themselves are not sure.
Making data beautiful is an innate ability of almost every person engaged in scientific research. You must know that if the data does not look good, investors will stop investing.
Once investors stop investing, not only will the project be stopped, but these researchers will also lose their livelihood.
So whether you can make an effective product or not, you must first make the numbers look good.
According to the director of the research institute, the new engine's horsepower is at most 80, and anything more is a gift from God.
But the deduction result they wrote on the draft was no less than one hundred.
Finally, with these results confirmed, Lynch asked one last question, "Do you know about wind tunnels?"
Lynch already knew the answer from the stunned faces of the two people. He refused their farewells and left directly.
I came here to take a look because I was chatting with Mr. Trueman and the soldiers about the future shape of war two days ago. He invested almost five million here, and will continue to invest more in the future. funds.
Almost half of these funds were used to purchase various licenses. Those traditional military industrial companies have a deep industrial foundation in this area, and they hold many patents.
Some things can bypass these patents, but some patents are not considered to be bypassable in the short term, such as fuel injectors.
This thing looks inconspicuous, but it directly requires Lynch's annual authorized patent of 150,000 yuan.
He doesn’t have to buy it, then he has to research an independent and non-duplicated patent on his own, and this cannot be done in a few days, it takes a long time.
There are countless small patents like this. If you have to research each one by yourself, I guess everyone can give up researching aircraft.
Some of these seemingly simple things actually often have outrageous patent barriers.
Patent barriers have always been the killer weapon of those giants. To put it simply, assuming that a pair of scissors is a patented technology, these giants will not only register the patented technology of the scissors.
They will also register the forging technology of the material of the scissors itself, the processing technology of the material, the screws used on it, the materials used on the handle, the shape, and even the packaging.
This is only part of the professional barriers. Various trademarks with similar shapes and similar names will be registered, forming a "castle" around a certain patent core at a time.
Sometimes a single patent is often followed by dozens, hundreds or even thousands of related patent registrations.
Want to reinvent the same thing around these patent barriers?
It is possible, but the cost of development will far exceed the cost of directly purchasing the patent rights. This is also the cost of those predators not only eating the meat, but also drinking the soup.
Either bow your head or change a line.
These are just visible means. For these predators, there are many shady means, from simply coercing and kidnapping researchers, to setting fire to research institutes, and even creating explosions. There have been too many incidents surrounding various cutting-edge patents. What a beautiful or ugly thing.
Behind every cutting-edge patent, there are often several years or more, and tens of millions or even billions of research funds invested. Do you want to destroy the patents in the hands of these people?
They really dare to kill people!
Similar things have happened more than once in the history of the Federation. When some small institutes or individuals published some research results that caused fatal damage to certain patents, people would soon be able to see these people in the newspapers. .
They either died from various experimental accidents, or problems occurred in the research institutions where they worked, and some disappeared silently.
There are very few people who can sell their research results at a similar price and then change careers. The interests of capitalists are not so easy to touch.
Lynch is also unwilling to make some enemies early. Buying the right to use these patents will not only give everyone the impression that he abides by the rules of the game, but it will also help him "persuad" others to abide by the rules of the game in the future.
Sometimes, taking the first step is a world ahead!
Two days later, Lynch came to Curiland City and met the mysterious professor at the state university who had not revealed his name until now.
The academic atmosphere in the university is quite good. There are not only the project leader and professor in the laboratory, but also some young students, all of whom are free laborers.
Some people have criticized this phenomenon, believing that some professors in universities exploit students' labor.
These university professors will take over some research projects from inside and outside the school, and then they will let their students work for them almost free of charge to conduct research on the topics.
Most of the time, they themselves don't do much. They only work in person when there are occasional breakthroughs in key technical nodes. Most of the time, they are still "students".
This "student tyrant" is not a good term. To put it in a more straightforward way, it is an academic dictator.
However, although this argument has always existed, it has never made any waves. In the final analysis, these professors still have the core resources.
They get all kinds of projects, that's why some people criticize them but they can't change the status quo.
Without these professors, those students would not have the opportunity to participate in scientific research projects and serve as important researchers, and they would not be able to get a dazzling resume.
Sometimes when I think about it, the professors at the school are willing to use these students to work for themselves for free. It is actually a kind of kindness. They do not ask the students to pay an additional registration fee to participate in the project. It is simply a kindness!
Just like this technological breakthrough, every participating student is very excited. Not only that, their names will also be included in the professor's academic report, and their resumes will have a valuable experience, which will be beneficial to their future. Work helps tremendously.
None of the students in the laboratory thought that the professor was a dictator. The people who really criticized these phenomena were actually those who couldn't get in.
"I can't understand!" Lynch flipped through it briefly and pushed the thick pile of reports back to the middle of the table. "Has the patent been registered?"
The professor nodded excitedly, "As soon as the results came out, you registered them in your own name..."
There are relevant authorizations and provisions in the commissioned research contract signed by Lynch and the State University. Once the research on this project makes progress, the school must register the relevant patent with Lynch as the patent holder as soon as the results are released. Various patent information.
It also contained a letter of authorization from Lynch.
The professor's mood has been very high these days. He smiles and greets everyone he sees, which makes some students feel a little flattered.
The entire laboratory is filled with a positive and positive atmosphere. The results are everyone's credit and gain, and everyone is very happy.
He rubbed his hands and said a little embarrassedly, "Mr. Lynch, according to our previous contract, should we proceed with the next step of research?"
The meaning of this sentence is actually to remind Lynch that you can make money.
For this kind of commissioned research, only those who don’t have enough money can continue to make up the money, but those who have too much money have to refund it.
They have many ways to use up the excess funds on their books as soon as the research results come out.
For example, the simplest way is to buy some carbon-free and lead-free "pencils" specially designed for research laboratories, which cost tens of yuan or even three figures.
Or there are some scratch papers with special ingredients, which cost a few dollars a piece and can start at a thousand sheets.
Another example is some precious metals that can be disposed of anytime and anywhere. These are all experimental residues.
The professor didn't mention the remaining money, and naturally Lynch wouldn't mention it either.
He took out his checkbook on the spot, and the eyes of both the professor and the students behind him began to shine.
Although the professor will not give these students any cash benefits, they students also have ways to get some project funds.
The professor is very aware of these things, but he also turns a blind eye to these things. As long as everyone does not go too far and maintains an "orthodox" project team atmosphere, he has the right to provide benefits to those students.
"How much?"
The professor licked his lips and said, "One million."
"We plan to complete the second phase of the research in the contract in no more than half a year. We already have a good idea in the first phase, and I believe we will see the results soon!"
The second phase of the research project commissioned by Lynch was related to radio. He required that within the radio wave coverage of the main radio station, different terminals could selectively respond according to different content.
It's a bit complicated to say this, but it's actually a pager.
Lynch doesn't understand this kind of thing, but he has used it before. The most terrifying thing in this era is not that there is no phone, but that you can't find anyone after calling!
Once the pager came out, it was a no-brainer to know that this thing would definitely sell out.
Not to mention anything else, just the various agents of Bu Payn. If each of them didn't have three or five pagers on their waists, they would be embarrassed to say that they were Bu Payn's agents!
At the same time, this thing actually paves the way for future mobile communications.
Why does Mr. President not leave the Presidential Office unless necessary, but even rests in the Presidential Palace at night?
After all, it is not because emergencies may happen anytime and anywhere. If he cannot be found, the whole country may fall into riots. But with mobile communications, these problems can be solved very well. At the same time, this is also future!
Mobile communications and technology are all opportunities for the rise of the fourth generation consortium.
