Just when most people in the cabinet were more inclined not to do their best to help the parallel world and were preparing to vote, Li Xiangyang from the Ministry of Scientific Research suddenly stood up and said loudly:
"Please wait, wait until I finish speaking and then vote!"
“I know that everyone may prefer national interests above all else, and feel that unilateral funding of the parallel world is actually a harm to national interests.
But, what I want to say is.
If we take a longer-term view and help parallel planes, it may be beneficial to us. "
"Tell me more about it..." There are actually people present who want to fully support the people in the parallel world, but they are few and weak. At this time, of course, I hope that Li Xiangyang, who is engaged in research, can give some reasons that are enough to convince more people.
Dora voted yes.
Other cabinet members who disapproved actually didn't mind spending some time listening to Li Xiangyang say a few more words.
"It is undeniable that the current refrigerator can only achieve one-sided transmission. Apart from the contribution, there is no way to obtain any other benefits from there. At most, it can only gain the gratitude of the people and the friendship of the country.
But technology will continue to innovate and progress.
Even if there is no way for refrigerators to evolve, we can still work hard to study refrigerators and find ways to artificially create a new space channel, even to the extent of two-way transmission. Will there be no benefits by then?
What a huge market there is in the world.
I think there’s no need to say more!
And actually speaking, what we need to pay is not very much. It’s not like they are hit by disasters every year and don’t have enough food every year. We only need to help them for one or two years at most. In the future, we can completely provide some Agricultural knowledge, high-yield food seed cultivation methods, etc., allow them to become self-sufficient.
If you can secretly help them dominate the world.
The benefits gained after realizing free trade between both parties will definitely be more. Although these benefits are far away, they are not impossible. Why not give it a try. Compared with the initial investment, it can provide help in times of need and gain friendship.
In the later stage, as long as the transaction between the two parties can be realized.
The benefits are more than ten times or a hundred times! "
It is certain that there is no profit at the moment, so Li Xiangyang can only use future profits to draw a huge pie for all members present.
And the cake he drew is actually not fake.
As long as technology can make breakthroughs, it will succeed, and it can successfully turn the illusory pie into a real pie.
"Xiang Yang, everything you said is based on the illusion that technology can break through. But what if technology can't break through? You know, the current theory of space technology has not been perfected, let alone practical operation.
It may be an exaggeration to say that the current space technology is like a blank piece of paper, but at most it is a piece of white paper with a few points. The international community currently generally agrees that it will be difficult to achieve any practical results within a hundred years, even if we have it in our hands. The refrigerator can unilaterally transport items, but it cannot be disassembled and studied. It may even be that the cause and basis of this thing are completely different from our current scientific system.
Want to make a breakthrough in technology.
I'm afraid it's very difficult.
And once we invest for ten or twenty years, when we retire, we still have no gains and only losses, will it be considered that we made a wrong decision?
Also, if too much manpower and material resources are invested in this area, and there is no technological breakthrough for a long time, will it cause us to start to lag behind other countries in other aspects? Originally, we are inferior to the world's top powers in many aspects. It is much weaker. If some top scientific researchers are separated to engage in space physics that has no results, the risk is very high! "
Nothing in this world is perfect, and nothing is absolutely successful. Everything has the possibility of failure before it is completely successful, so what the Ministry of Finance's blessing said at this time is actually not unreasonable.
No one can guarantee a two-way transaction channel.
The research will definitely be successful.
It would be fine if the research succeeded, but if the research failed or there was no progress for a long time,
As a result, research in other directions begins to lag behind others. When they die and the coffin is finalized, mistakes may be attributed to them.
Blame it on their poor decision-making and so on.
Some elders who are too old actually don't know how great the benefits of success are, but they are about to retire and really don't want to take this risk. The current national development is enough for them to retire in honor.
"In-depth research in the direction of space physics may lead to fewer researchers, or the number of top scientific researchers researching technologies in other directions is not enough. I really have a way to solve it, and I think it is also a major advantage of fully helping another Xia country in the parallel world. .
I clearly remember that the refrigerator said that the space channel is only for materials and cannot be traded in both directions, but information can be exchanged through him as a transit.
This undoubtedly means that we can actually communicate with scientific researchers in that country in the parallel world.
Although they are far inferior to us in all aspects, and even lag behind us in technological development, they are lagging behind not because they are stupid or stupid, but because they did not catch up with the first two industrial revolutions, were blocked by technology, and had no channels to obtain more information. Advanced knowledge.
There are many aspects that you need to explore by yourself.
Actual IQ, to put it bluntly, I think the abilities and IQs of those scientific researchers in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China were probably higher than many of our current scientific researchers.
Let’s break down some of the core and important technologies. Many of them were breakthroughs made by the older generation of scientific researchers in the 1960s and 1970s. The researchers in the 1980s and 1990s could only be considered to have made certain breakthroughs based on the original technology. In-depth research, but if there is any major breakthrough, it is definitely far inferior to those of the old predecessors.
So what I mean is that if the older generation of scientific researchers at the beginning of the founding of the parallel world were allowed to conduct research at the same starting point as us, it is very likely that their research progress would be faster than ours. Even if they are not faster than us, if they are allowed to study a certain technology with us, it will be equivalent to doubling or at least increasing the number of scientific researchers by one-third.
It is enough to make up for the loss in studying space physics.
You can understand what I mean. What I mean is to teach some of the current technical knowledge to the researchers in the parallel world as much as possible, so that they can be at the same level as us and cooperate in research together.
They may not be of much help to us in the first few years, mainly due to our efforts, but as they gradually learn our knowledge, we will be equivalent to tens of thousands more senior researchers.
One more country can help us conduct research together.
Although I don’t want to believe in the theory of metaphysics about national destiny.
But during the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, there were indeed a large number of talents, not only in our country, but also in the world. It was almost equivalent to a different kind of contention of a hundred schools of thought. Think about it, the older generation of scientific researchers in their youth helped us with our research. , this is such a great honor, and the results will definitely not be any worse. "
Li Xiangyang's thoughts moved very quickly. In just a short time, he thought so much and thought so far.
The most important thing is that it sounds reasonable.
As he finished speaking, many cabinet elders present fell into deep thought. The balance of agreement and disapproval soon turned. It can be seen that most cabinet elders actually quite agree that the older generation of researchers are more capable. .
Maybe it was because the scientific research at that time was purer.
After that, more people spoke one after another, and many elders proposed the theory of homology of blood. In that world, many of their ancestors were suffering, and if they intervened, they might be able to prevent some scholars from being persecuted and die, and restore the past. Some regrets.
Let's take some detours and turn into no detours.
After such a discussion, the final vote was obvious. The majority of cabinet elders agreed to fully help the parallel world. After setting this general policy, they did not need to attend meetings for the following details. Each department would do it on its own. Just have an internal meeting.
For example, how much food should be subsidized and what type of materials should be subsidized? Just hold an internal meeting within the General Administration of Food and Oil.
At most, during the meeting, the sixty years of this world will be
Pull out the data and calculate how much food that world needs based on the data of this world.
Overall there is no problem.
But there are conflicts in terms of technical support.
The most controversial part is that the Ministry of Scientific Research has great disagreements about which technologies and knowledge are suitable to be directly compiled into textbooks and given to the parallel world, and which technologies and knowledge should not be given to them.
Some people believe that it is simple and convenient to directly copy all current scientific and technological knowledge. It can also avoid them taking detours and get it right in one step.
But some people think that not only is this counterproductive, but it can actually only create a technological system similar to theirs. It will not be of much help to them in the future. It is better to provide some basic knowledge and provide some general directions. There is no divergent knowledge, and others give them several different directions, allowing them to study and develop on their own.
For example, there are currently two development directions for nuclear fusion, one is inertial confinement and the other is magnetic confinement. In addition, there are many ignition methods. Some choose to take the laser route, and some choose to take the stellarator route. However, At present, no one can be sure of success.
Even if it is determined that inertial constraint or magnetic constraint can be successful in the future, it does not mean that another method cannot be successful.
It's just that there may be some way to take the lead.
A certain research team suddenly had an idea.
However, research in a certain direction takes the first step. After success, many research institutions or countries may give up on the direction that failed, but have not determined the direction that failed, and instead specialize in the direction that succeeded. Ultimately, the entire world's scientific research The system extends downwards in the direction of success.
Therefore, in the opinion of some researchers, if their technological system is completely copied to the opposite world, then no matter how the opposite world develops, it will only develop the same as them, and it will not bring them much inspiration and help at all. It is not in vain. Blind adventure.
Therefore, they feel that some scientific research directions that they ultimately failed to pursue due to various reasons are not without possibility of success.
You can definitely let Xia Guo in parallel time and space try it.
For example, Chinese language system programming.
Another example is the original old direction, but the domestic chips died due to various reasons such as the impact of a large number of cheap foreign chips, lack of scientific research personnel, and lack of investment.
These can all be studied and tried by the other party.
Success is the best, and there is no loss if you fail.
Opponents mainly believe that doing so will affect the learning progress of the other party. If the research direction is different, normal communication and cooperation will not be possible!
I have to say that this is actually a question of short-term gains and long-term gains. From the perspective of short-term gains, it is obvious that the existing technology system here is directly copied and allowed to be learned by Xia Guo in parallel time and space. This is not only simple and trouble-free, but also It is easiest to see benefits, and within ten years at most, you should be able to obtain a large number of top scientific researchers to cooperate with them in research.
But if the timeline is stretched to fifty or one hundred years, it is obvious that two countries that have developed different technological systems along different routes can gain more benefits and inspiration after colliding with each other's ideas.
In addition, no matter where other countries join forces to impose technological blockades or patent barriers, they can also rely on the achievements of the other side in different directions to break the blockade.
For example, there is a blockade on silicon-based chip technology here.
Carbon-based chip technology will be available immediately on the other side.
Naturally, the blockade has no effect and is in vain.
For another example, one side focuses on the development of biomedical technology, and the other side focuses on the development of biogenetic technology.
The mutual communication between the two sides is undoubtedly 1+1>2.
So from a long-term perspective, it is definitely the latter. Both sides develop in different directions, with higher returns, and the longer the time, the higher the returns.
Li Xiangyang is obviously not the only one who has a long-term vision. After a week of controversy, he finally chose the long-term vision.
Those researchers accounted for the majority, and began to dig deeply into some projects that had not succeeded, but did not clearly fail, but were shelved or stopped because another direction had succeeded first. They organized them and prepared to send them to parallel projects after a period of time. The Xia Kingdom of the world.
Let them see if they can continue research on this basis. If they can really put these on hold or study more than half of the suspended scientific research projects, it will definitely be enough to make the entire scientific and technological system of Xia Kingdom in the parallel world move towards a completely different direction from theirs. , another branch. .net
At this time, the General Administration of Food and Oil had not only calculated how much food support was needed, but also specially processed the food and added some essential elements and nutrients for the human body to ensure that the food was not only satiating, but also Problems such as malnutrition can also be properly adjusted, and everything is ready.
Just waiting to send things over, or in other words, just waiting to contact the other side's official to send things over.
