Chapter 507 Research Countermeasures, Amazing R&D Investment
Hearing the small beep, Liu Sen clicked on the message!
The latest Nightmare has been built.
Liu Sen nodded, this will be another trump card for him!
I will complete the follow-up processing when I go to the Guardian Base tomorrow.
After reading the message, I communicated with Liu Ying and others about work again!
But many countries in the world can no longer sit still.
The White House of the Lighthouse Country.
"Immediately increase the investment in our country's space program. We must not be surpassed by China! Once they are ahead of us, our international reputation and status will be greatly challenged."
The old man said to everyone very seriously.
A group of senior officials who had been gathered together since the beginning because of the conflict in the military exercise all nodded.
They all knew what the old man said, and now they have begun to decline. If they lose in the space competition, they will decline rapidly.
Many people say that the rise of the Lighthouse Country's computing and becoming the overlord on Earth is largely due to their moon landing in 1969.
That moon landing earned them enough fame and attracted many top scientists from all over the world.
"We must land on the moon before them, and we have to set up more obstacles for them!" said a man with a big belly.
"We should promote new agreements in the near future and attract some countries to co-fund and support our research." Another person said immediately.
"This is good. We promise that they can participate in the research, but all the results belong to our Lighthouse Country, and we authorize them to use them!"
"And we must speed up the collection of intelligence, especially Yidian Aerospace. We must master some of their secrets. This Yidian Group is really weird!"
"Yes, they have developed so many world-leading technologies in such a short time!"
"We can't let them develop anymore, we must make up our minds to sanction them!"
When it comes to sanctioning Yidian Company, many people are silent.
After a long time, an old man with gold-rimmed glasses said: "We also want to sanction, and we have wanted to do this for a long time! But do we have a good way to deal with them?"
He glanced at the group of people sitting there.
"I think many of you here are still cooperating with Yidian. Through authorization, you don't need to invest any money or resources. You can make tens of billions of dollars every month without doing anything, right?"
Everyone knew what he was talking about.
After a short silence, a middle-aged man said: "Although we make money, we also do it for this country. You know, wireless power has reduced the cost of electricity in the country by at least 10%, and in some places it has even reached 20%. It is also because of this that the cost of all goods in the country has been reduced a lot, and the country's economy can be stabilized quickly!"
"We can achieve it through other methods, that is, we can't let Yidian easily obtain a lot of funds and invest in research and development. They will become more and more powerful! For example, lithography machines, chips, cars, rockets, satellites, all of which are surpassing us!"
"When I think of this now, the rapid development of Yidian scares me a little!"
"I'm afraid that in another ten years, no, maybe five or three years, he will have the ability to crush me "If our ability is destroyed, all our industries around the world will be crushed!"
"At that time, it will be very difficult or even impossible for us to resist again!"
"You know, Yidian has a very large capital flow. It can sweep up trillions of dollars from all over the world every year. It can be said that it is actually the most valuable high-tech company in the world!"
"And with the development of its technology, more and more industries are involved, and this number will rise geometrically. Maybe it will reach 5 trillion US dollars next year and 10 trillion US dollars later!"
"We must fight back, otherwise you will wait for your wealth to shrink by dozens or hundreds of times in a few years!"
The previous words are right and good, but none of them have a greater impact on others than this last sentence.
Everyone at the scene looked very ugly.
They can ignore the people and the country, but they will never sit back and watch their assets shrink.
"Then tell me, how should we fight back!"
Seeing that everyone finally responded, the old man with gold-rimmed glasses finally smiled.
"First, we must cut off his continuous flow of funds, so that he does not have enough funds to invest in research. Once there is no funding, many top scientific researchers may leave."
"Even more seriously, it is likely that he will not be able to maintain the salary payment of the entire huge number of researchers!"
"According to the survey results of Yidian Group: Yidian Group currently has 580,000 employees, of which about 510,000 are R&D technicians, and the monthly salary expenditure is about 116 billion yuan, with an average monthly salary of 200,000 yuan per person."
"And the number of technical R&D personnel in Yidian Group is still increasing by 5% every month, and their recruitment information is posted on major recruitment websites and major universities all year round!"
Everyone immediately calculated in their minds, and they were instantly shocked.
This year, the salary expenditure alone will reach 200 billion US dollars.
This is really too scary, it is impossible to expect so many new technologies to appear.
"That's not the most important thing. Yidian's R&D investment is even more amazing. We estimated that the R&D funds can reach 800 billion US dollars!"
"800 billion US dollars?"
"My God!"
"This is incredible!"
"I thought the salary of 200 billion US dollars was amazing enough, and this 800 billion US dollars in R&D is too scary!"
"Is this not money?"
In an instant, countless people sighed.
They know how much the global high-tech companies invest in R&D every year.
The latest report on December 25, 22, the 2,500 high-tech companies with the largest R&D investment in the world, the total R&D investment is only 1093.9 billion euros.
Of course, this does not include the R&D investment of Yidian Group.
Now they are told that Yidian's investment has reached 800 billion US dollars, which is 746.24 billion euros when converted into euros.
The R&D investment of one company is directly more than 70% of the investment of 2,500 companies.
You should know that apart from Yidian, the first place Google has 27.8 billion Euros, the second place Facebook has 21.7 billion Euros, the third place Microsoft has 21.6 billion Euros, and the fourth place Huaban has only invested 19.5 billion Euros.
