Chapter 377: Science and Technology Competition
In this way, Datang's industrial system was initially established.
Of course, there are still many imperfections, and projects such as the Alliance's scientific research center are also beginning to take shape, and a large number of R&D personnel have come here from National Lingnan University on the one hand, and on the other hand, people from the private sector or the scientific and technological circles of allied countries.
In fact, the purpose of this is very clear: if everyone does their own thing, it will lead to the dispersion of energy and resources, and it will be difficult to form a truly powerful scientific research force.
The innovation of new technology is endless, but for the current Yanyu, the so-called high-precision things in the eyes of the people of the world are just the most primitive things, and it is difficult to meet his requirements.
His requirement is to build a truly powerful aircraft within two years, and he also puts forward very strict requirements for the core components of such aircraft, the engine, of course, the steam engine as tall as a mountain cannot be installed on the plane no matter what.
Lightweight is key, but it requires the processing of the technology and each component in it, and tens of thousands of Tang Alliance scientists are working day and night. Their wish is also very simple, that is, to complete the scientific research project in charge of them as soon as possible according to the requirements of the regent Li Yanyu, and obtain a rich share and profits.
This is not to do business, but to do scientific research, Yan Yu has long divided everyone into countless small scientific research organizations according to the different professional directions, and each scientific research organization has determined a leader, and in this way, under the leadership of the leader, more than 3,000 key projects planned by Yan Yu have been substantially promoted.
Soon, a year passed, and the imperial court invested about 100,000 taels of silver, and two years passed, and the power invested by the imperial court this year was ten times that of last year, a million taels of silver, and three, four, and five years passed...... The investment of the imperial court has accounted for almost half of the gross national product of the entire Tang Dynasty.
Why is there still no result......
Are these people really not suitable for these things, or are they simply not able to accomplish this arduous task with the current scientific research strength and human consciousness?
No...... How can this be, a huge amount of money and wealth have been invested, and if it continues like this, the entire empire will be dragged down, but now there are three thousand projects, and none of them can really be delivered.
In particular, once the key technologies such as engines, generators, aviation materials, and electronic chips cannot be broken through, many other key links will cause new problems.
It can't go on like this......
Sir, my budget has come down this year...... What do you think about the investment in the research center......
Go on......
Lao Chen thinks that now everyone has some doubts about these things, but I think this is not the most fundamental, after all, their projects are progressing, and the research and development of many scientific and technological products has basically completed the model, etc., although it has not yet reached the real mass production, but after all, they have invested a lot of effort and energy, if these people do not use it well, they can't be contained, and they will return to their country with their existing technology in the future, who can guess whether they will be used by my Datang...... Lao Chen thinks that many things are like this, quantitative change produces qualitative change, when your investment reaches a certain level, the water is full of overflow, and the benefits will be revealed, if you have ten taels of silver, you want to set up a stall on the street may not be able to really achieve profitability, but if you have a thousand taels of silver, open a high-end restaurant on Chang'an West Street, the benefits will naturally appear, this is the law of economics, I think it is enough to use it in scientific research is enough for people to learn from......
Who are you, and what are your current positions......
Lao Chen is a professor of economics at National Lingnan University......
Old professor, you said that quantitative change produces qualitative change, I believe this very much, but I really can't gamble the whole country into it, if this is really the case, then these scientific research projects can not achieve mass production, for the benefit of the people, what is the point of doing these things......
Now the imperial court has invested tens of thousands of gold and silver in these scientific research projects, but none of the three thousand scientific research projects have really been delivered to us, and the old minister is also very sad, but is the money really flowing away in vain! I don't think there is, the prince knows, now even in the private sector, there have been a large number of science and technology companies, not to mention, only in Chang'an and Guanzhong, there are hundreds of large and small scientific research companies, these companies are private capital, the system is very flexible, they have cooperated with these scientific research project teams, providing them with a large number of raw materials and accessories, only last year, in Chang'an's gross national product, the output of science and technology companies has reached 45%, now it can be said, The scientific research center of Datang is located in Chang'an, which has become the scientific research center of the entire Tang Empire and even the world.
This money was not spent in vain, what I saw was that now nine out of ten young people generally have a strong interest in science and technology......
Oh, yes! You're right! That's true, I originally wanted to accumulate more movable resources and money for Datang, but I didn't expect that when I came here, I was also a little shaken, but today you persuaded me, I am very happy, stay and drink together...... Oh! That's right! It is necessary to continue to instruct that next year's scientific research funding will not change, and the regular price will be increased by 10 percent......
As a direct result of this, in the following year, a large number of technological and industrial products emerged.
Of course, this credit belongs to all scientific researchers, but also to the entire Datang Alliance, and to the prince who has always adhered to and committed to scientific and technological research and development.
At the commendation ceremony, Yan Yu really gave this credit to the professor of Lingnan University who persuaded him, if it were not for him, he would not have and could not have achieved today's achievements.
A German research team has created a bunker-ready fuel engine for ships, which has been approved for mass production and is now being retrofitted.
The Japanese have also made great achievements in the car engines, although they are still too large compared to modern car engines, but it doesn't matter, just continue to improve. Of course, the Japanese team is indispensable to the support of German technical experts, but their learning ability has to be said to be really strong, as soon as the German experts left, they quickly improved and converted these things, and the automobile engine was also mass-produced, and the army fed back that the quality was still very good, compared to the Navy's complaints about the endless repair of German machinery and equipment, the space engine manufactured by the scientific research team composed of the French was still very immature and almost unusable, what happened to the French, tomorrow if their machines are still like this, they will be dismissed and the Japanese and Germans will take over......
...... cough cough cough ......
The French are generally lazy, and their project progress is not very accurate, so the later experiments and the like are much simplified, and this will happen......
I'm not inviting them here to drink red wine, telling them that if the space engine team can't complete the experiment next year, I'll let them all go back to France......
