Siheyuan: I earned foreign exchange in the heyday

Chapter 996 Copyright in exchange for sponsorship

After all, they are people who have to protect their reputation. Chen Changan's words immediately left several experts speechless.

Who can guarantee the research results? Especially for products with very high technical difficulty such as aircraft engines.

If you are asked to make a promise in front of your superiors and then fail to complete the task, not being trusted in the future will be a small matter, but you may even have no future in this life.

They just want to get more research funding, not to bet with others.

"Everyone sitting here, please listen to me first. After I finish speaking, if you have any opinions, we can discuss them in detail.

There are seven proposed projects. Let's discuss them one by one. As the saying goes, the truth becomes clearer the more it is debated.

The first is biotechnology, which includes both animal and plant aspects.

Food is the foundation of a country at all times, but most people only see that food is barely enough to eat.

But what I want to say is that this is barely enough to eat when the weather is good.

Looking back at history, we know that there are always times when things go wrong with the weather.

As the country's population grows, the demand for food will also increase.

In ancient times, people knew to store grain in good years and release it in bad years. How much grain do we have in our country? How long will it be enough to feed the people of the country?

I don't need to say more about this, right? No one would complain about having too much food.

Let’s talk about the aerospace technology that has been criticized by many people. Many people think that the role of satellites is limited, and aerospace is a purely high-investment, low-return industry.

But what I want to tell you is that the United States already has GPS.

I think everyone here is familiar with GPS, right? It is used in many fields, including airplanes, ships, missiles, etc.

But have you ever thought about what would happen if the Americans turned off our GPS one day?

Rockets exploding, ships getting lost, these are things that can happen at any time.

It is better to rely on yourself than to ask others for help. Instead of asking others for help all day long, it is better to rely on yourself and develop your own navigation system.

Do you still think aerospace technology is unimportant now?"

Seeing that no one in the conference room opposed him, Chen Changan continued.

"Let's talk about a few other industries that would like to be included in this proposal.

The first one is aircraft engines. To be honest, this is really a bottomless pit.

It is especially difficult when some materials are lacking.

I think it will be difficult to achieve a breakthrough in aviation engines without a major breakthrough in materials.

This is also the reason why the new materials industry was included in the proposal.

Moreover, the country has not given up on aviation engines. The country has also provided a large amount of research and development funds for the new project "Taihang".

Therefore, before there is a breakthrough in materials, the shortcomings of aircraft engines will probably continue to accompany us for the next ten or even twenty years.

As for medical equipment, I just want to say that this is the current situation.

Even if we import more inspection equipment, what will happen?

Are the treatment equipment and treatment methods up to par? Are the number of medical workers sufficient?

With limited funding, sometimes we have to make trade-offs.”

As Chen Changan finished speaking, the conference room fell silent, and everyone lowered their heads in thought.

Some people wanted to refute Chen Changan, but they didn't know how to refute.

Many experts in the military industry sighed secretly. This feeling of powerlessness is really frustrating.

But what Chen Changan said was right. The funds are limited and there must always be trade-offs.

There is no doubt that medical care is the one that has been sacrificed. Local areas with better economies can still purchase some equipment every few years.

Areas with poor economic conditions may have to maintain the status quo, and in the inner city there are only two or three large hospitals with relatively complete equipment.

The meeting ended in silence, and all the experts agreed to the proposal.

After everyone left, the leader in charge of the meeting spoke to Chen Changan.

"Thank you Director Chen for helping me out. I was also forced to do this by my superiors.

It was also the first time for me to face so many experts in so many fields, and it was difficult for me to convince them.

Fortunately, Director Chen is here today, otherwise I would not be able to explain this to my superiors."

“You’re welcome. I think these guys have been eyeing the car factory for a long time.

If I don't stand up today, I'm afraid I will be swallowed up by this group of people. I can only protect myself at best."

"No matter what, I still want to thank Director Chen for his help."

After returning to the car factory, Chen Changan was still a little unhappy.

Despite convincing so many experts, Chen Changan himself felt that there was no reason to give up the medical system.

Those were living patients. Whenever I see people who had a chance to be saved but had to wait for death in pain due to lack of medicines and equipment, I will be moved.

Wang Xin would probably blame himself, but sometimes it is just like that, the overall equity situation must be considered, and many personal interests always need to be given up.

Just at this moment, another visitor came to the office.

When Li Chenglin brought Director Yang to the office, Chen Changan could only forget what happened before.

He stood up with a smile and shook hands with Director Yang.

"Director Yang, aren't you still filming Journey to the West? How come you have time to come to my place? Have you finished filming?"

"The filming of Journey to the West was not completed so quickly. This time I received a call from the leaders of the station.

Since there were really no new programs to be broadcast, they thought of me and asked me to edit a few episodes first and play them to see how they turned out.

To be honest, after shooting for such a long time, I really need to see the results.

Let me tell you, I won’t let your three million sponsorship from your car factory go to waste.

Not only are there acknowledgments at the end of the TV series, but I heard that your factory produces a device that can be used to watch movies and TV series using discs?

We are old friends. I have come here specially to tell you that your car factory can take the CD with pressed Journey to the West and sell it in the market.

As for whether you can recover your 3 million investment, that depends on the ability of your car factory."

"Oh, my Director Yang, you have brought me a great gift.

I don’t know how to thank you right now.”

Director Yang smiled brightly.

"Don't know how to thank me? That's easy. The crew of Journey to the West still has several episodes to shoot, but the funds are insufficient.

This time, I am here to beg for alms from you. I hope you will make an additional investment for my sake."

Chen Changan said without hesitation.

"Okay, no problem. Our car factory is adding another 2 million yuan. Do you think it's enough?"

Seeing that Chen Changan was willing to make additional investments, Old Yang smiled broadly.

"That's enough. It's just the last few episodes. Plus the post-editing, that's enough."

As for the fact that the copyright of the CD could bring in so much investment, Director Yang felt that he had made a lot of money.
