The biggest difference between the upper class and the middle class is that the upper class has a certain amount of assets that can be passed down.
It is difficult for question-answers who have become middle-class on their own to pass on their talent in question-solving to the next generation.
Even if both parents graduated from Qingbei, there is still no guarantee that their next generation will be able to attend an ordinary 985.
Beyond assets, there are relationships.
Why do the middle class like big cities? Because the ceiling in big cities is high enough, the ceiling that can be reached without relying on the construction of a network of relationships is high enough.
In small cities, the ceiling is clearly there, and it may only be a few million wealth without relying on the family's deep relationship network.
Many people choose big cities not only because they cannot handle the intricate network of relationships in small cities, but also because their families lack relevant connections and cannot help them get started.
Sometimes it’s not about finding the more powerful person who can get things done, but it’s about finding the key person. Maybe his position is not very high, but finding this person in this matter is better than finding other people with higher positions than him. Works a hundred times better.
Back to Science City, in a society run by full artificial intelligence, these problems naturally do not exist.
After all, if you want to build relationships with artificial intelligence, how can you do it? Is it possible that you can help artificial intelligence optimize its processing algorithm from the bottom?
In 2039, it won’t just be the Lion City adopting artificial intelligence to manage the entire society.
The three Nordic countries have also taken the lead in carrying out reforms, and these countries have introduced the artificial intelligence system of Lion City.
Germany, France and England are still waiting and watching.
The main economic sources of the entire Lion City are as follows. The first one is that the Lion City itself has many state-owned enterprises with many financial assets, and the income generated by the operation of these assets.
Taking Dan Maxi as an example, what Zheng Li gave to the Li family was the cash he received from selling shares of Kechuang Biotechnology, and the cash equivalent to the market value of Dan Maxi was given to the Li family.
Tanmaxi Holdings remains a financial asset in the Lion City.
With artificial intelligence as risk control, both data collection and overall data analysis are much better than humans.
To put it simply, risk control is to measure the repayment ability and willingness to repay the assets under your name.
Analyze these two abilities through clues in the information.
What you think of as a business war may involve strategizing and winning thousands of miles away. In reality, a business war may involve stealing official seals, changing the lock cylinder of a lock box, or the chairman of the board peeking into the operations of other companies.
So unpretentious.
The concept of fintech, that is, financial technology, was proposed in 2016. The core of it is big data risk control.
What big data risk control is more powerful than artificial intelligence to do this?
Therefore, under the joint management of artificial intelligence and people, the financial assets of Lion City are of unprecedented high quality, and the non-performing rate of self-operated assets has been reduced to less than 1%.
To make a simple analogy with the concept of non-performing rate, financial companies in China have mentioned every year that they need to clear out non-performing products and clear out non-performing products.
Even among banks with the lowest NPL ratio, the NPL ratio is generally around 1.7%.
Danmaxi is a comprehensive holding group, and its defective rate is less than 1%, which is unprecedentedly low.
In addition to financial assets, state-owned enterprises in the Lion City also include media, aviation, water and electricity infrastructure, etc.
The second source of income is taxation. After Zheng Li took over the Lion City, the level of government services has improved to a higher level than before.
The Lion City's status as a financial center in Asia has been further stabilized. The low financial tax rate does not mean there is no tax.
The third part is the benefits brought by these technologies after Zheng Li licensed them to Lion City.
Chief among them are biophotovoltaics and artificial intelligence government systems.
Needless to say, biophotovoltaics has an absolute monopoly in the market.
At the same time, the comparison between biophotovoltaics and traditional photovoltaics is completely overwhelming.
Currently, only China is still relying on government subsidies to barely maintain its traditional photovoltaic industry chain.
Of course, traditional photovoltaics are still necessary in this era, and they can serve as a supplement to biophotovoltaics in the field of photovoltaic buildings.
But that's about it.
As for government artificial intelligence, other countries have doubts about it.
Even if the three Nordic countries wanted to introduce it, they came to the Lion City for repeated on-site inspections before finally deciding to purchase it.
Mainly because it's expensive.
Because government artificial intelligence charges management fees, they are paid according to the personnel budget in your previous annual government budget.
Take Iceland as an example. The average annual investment in government labor costs in the past five years will be the annual artificial intelligence usage fee in the next five years.
In the end, Iceland took the lead in introducing artificial intelligence, and then Denmark and Norway successively reached agreements with the Lion City.
These three sources are currently the main sources for the Lion City.
Coupled with the abolition of the army and the civil service system, the Lion City government's financial strength is far greater than before.
To put it bluntly, if Zheng Li is willing to open the sale of life-extending potions, the revenue alone will be at least hundreds of billions.
The entire Blue Star countries show serious polarization.
Countries that are powerful Internet countries and have a certain manufacturing base, that is, traditional developed countries and a few developing countries, have enjoyed dividends from industrial transfer and upgrading.
Take the Europa Union as an example. It was already struggling with population and energy issues.
Your neighbors to the north threaten you with your territorial security and energy security at every turn.
For more than 20 years, we relied on our northern neighbor for cheap natural gas and oil, but then it stopped.
After the cut, OPEC also cut production.
Add to this the internal aging population, rising hedonism and extreme political correctness.
They were all dying and unable to survive, so the high-tech manufacturing giants from the Europa League were going to build factories in China.
BASF invested tens of billions of euros to build a factory in Zhanjiang, Merck Electronics built a factory in Zhangjiagang, and Zeiss Optics built a factory in China for the first time in history.
There are many similar news. Basically, these high-end giants chose to increase their investment in China in the early 2020s.
The Europa League looks like the third-placed team was knocked down first before the boss and the second-placed team fought.
As a result, whether it is the advent of magic or the rapid development of artificial intelligence and industrial intelligence, the Europa Union has been given a lot of life.
Biophotovoltaics has helped the Europa Union make up for the last shortcoming.
The Europa Union does not lack technology or money, nor does it lack R&D capabilities.
What they lack is low- and middle-end labor and cheap energy.
Industrial intelligence and biophotovoltaics perfectly help them solve their own problems.
It is too difficult for mainstream ethnic groups to have children, and we are unwilling to introduce non-mainstream ethnic groups. Now, artificial intelligence does the work for us.
The same is true for China.
If industrial intelligence and biophotovoltaics have brought the Europa Union back from the brink of disintegration, then the combination of the two will help Amerikan gradually escape from the dilemma of hollowing out.
It is too easy to make money in the financial industry. Compared with the financial industry, the manufacturing industry is at the bottom of the contempt chain.
It is precisely because manufacturing is not profitable, and at the same time Amerikan can harvest the world through the financial industry.
Therefore, Amerikan only left the most high-end manufacturing and military industries in the country, and distributed other manufacturing industries to the world, which was the beginning of industrial globalization.
I only hold shares, and the technology and industry are given to you. If you do well, I will share the dividends. If you do not do well, then I will distribute so many technologies and industries. There will always be some who do well.
If you do a good job, you will be able to obtain more of the technologies and industries I distribute in the future.
China has enjoyed the greatest dividends in this process.
Making money is fast, but there is no industry anymore. A large amount of manufacturing industry has flowed out and the industry has been hollowed out.
In fact, if China did not exist, there would be no problem with this structure.
I disperse the industry across various countries, and these countries need collectives to build a complete manufacturing industry.
At the same time, I am the leader of the martial arts alliance, commanding the world with the help of the dragon-slaying sword in my hand (that is, military and financial hegemony).
There is a lack of local industries, resulting in only the service industry and the financial industry, which are not a problem.
But the problem is that Huaguo always wants to do everything. It is not enough to have industry. It also needs technology. Having technology is not enough. It also needs to make breakthroughs along the industrial chain.
I want to eat the piece of cake that was not given to me in the system.
This led to China's manufacturing industry starting from scratch, then from existing to complete, and then from complete to partially strong.
The development speed is so fast that Amerikan panics. If it continues like this, there will be a question mark on whether his dragon-slaying sword will be useful.
Artificial intelligence and biophotovoltaics have also brought back Amerikan's manufacturing industry.
Originally, they wanted to relocate the manufacturing industry to Mexico.
Nowadays, artificial intelligence and biophotovoltaics have reduced costs and do not require much labor. They choose to return them directly to the local area.
Let me say a few more words. In 2022, Amerikan will not only ask the country's semiconductor industry not to do business with Chinese companies.
Washington has even privately hinted to companies other than its own semiconductor companies that it is no problem for you to do business with Chinese companies.
I know it’s a bit difficult to decouple you from Chinese companies now, and you can’t do it, but it’s you who provide money-making opportunities to Chinese companies. It’s them who are asking for help from you, not you who are asking for help from them.
At the very least, you have to require Chinese companies that want to do business with you to have production bases overseas.
So much so that in 2022, a certain company claimed that when it bids for all Americen orders, if it does not have a production base outside China, it will be rejected in the first round.
(This is something I have heard mentioned by many companies, but I am not sure whether all orders from the United States are like this.)
Therefore, in 2039, Amerikan's industry has substantially completed the task of returning to the local area.
The above are two relatively representative organizations.
As for China, China has also had a very prosperous life in recent years. After deeply taking root in Southeast Asia, it has also upgraded its own manufacturing industry.
China is considered to be the best among developing countries.
It even dragged Goryeo into the water. Goryeo's advantageous industries were basically eaten up by China.
Because Goryeo and China have basically the same structure of import and export trade. In the past, Goryeo relied on its own technological advantages, and China imported a large number of semiconductors and mechanical parts from Goryeo every year.
By 2039, the situation has been reversed. China no longer needs to purchase from Korea, and Korea even has to import some of its cutting-edge components from China.
In the 1920s, the five countries with the largest trade deficits with China were:
Kangaroo Country, Korea, Brazil, Neon and Switzerland.
Among them, Korea, Switzerland and Neon mainly export precision instruments, semiconductors, high-end materials, etc.
By the end of the 1930s, all three countries had successfully achieved trade surpluses.
Their reliance on high-end manufacturing has been cut to almost zero.
As for Kangaroo Country and Brazil, there is no other way. They must rely on each other in the field of raw materials.
The manufacturing industry can be solved through industrial upgrading, but the shortage of raw materials can only be solved through interstellar colonization.
After Zheng Li took over the Lion City, in addition to energy groups and artificial intelligence companies, he also established an aviation company.
This aviation company specializes in various types of aerospace fuels.
From a fuel perspective, or from an energy perspective, hydrogen energy has always been one of the mainstream directions chosen by Blue Star.
Although only Neon continues to invest in hydrogen energy.
Other countries are walking on two legs and mainly invest in lithium batteries, but they have not given up investment in the technical route of hydrogen fuel cells.
Neon has gone all the way, investing a lot of resources into hydrogen fuel cells.
Hydrogen fuel cells, as an aerospace energy source, have higher energy density, lighter weight, greater range and faster turnaround time.
This undoubtedly sounds like a promising technical route.
But why does this remain in the technical route of enterprise research and development and has not been implemented?
Many startups claim to build aircraft powered by pure hydrogen fuel cells.
Startup Zeroavia, which plans to build 10 to 20 passenger planes powered by hydrogen fuel cells by 2024, has received a $5 million donation.
In fact, the shadow has not been seen in 2024.
Airbus even declares that it will develop the world's first zero-emission commercial aircraft by 2035, relying on hydrogen fuel cell technology.
As a result, by 2039, this is just a plan, not to mention it has been implemented, and even the laboratory products have not been seen.
The biggest disadvantage of hydrogen fuel cells is the risk and the lack of good means of large-scale storage of hydrogen.
Because the biggest advantage of hydrogen is that it can be obtained from the polar regions of the moon and delivered to leo cheaply.
If it enters Leo from the transfer orbit through atmospheric braking, 25-30% of the water mined on the moon can be sent to Leo for use as propellant.
In this way, as long as it is paired with a ferry boat with a reusable life of only 100 times, the propellant price can be achieved at <$50/kg, which is far cheaper than sending it up from the surface, thus greatly reducing the cost of deep space logistics.
The first product of the newly established Space Group in the Lion City is an overall solution for hydrogen fuel cells.
This set of solutions and products have been sold to NASA and SA at the same time.
At the same time, the second product is super fuel with explosive combustion efficiency and energy efficiency ratio.
As for the second product, NASA and SA are currently working intensively to transform their space engines.
