Chapter 343: Chicken and Dog Ascend to Heaven
Under the current situation, spending so much effort on attracting investment is certainly not just for simple GDP growth.
With the development of Laos and China to this point, it is difficult for these first-tier and new first-tier cities to offer you such generous bargaining chips based on simple GDP.
The essence behind it is firstly for the entire automobile industry chain to be able to upgrade with the industry. Secondly, if you come up with any great black technology, put it here as a supporting package, giving me an extra industry out of thin air. .
The most typical case is probably the silencer material authorized by Guangjia Aerospace to Xiaomi. It was first used on Xiaomi ultra at that time, and later the modified material was used on nuclear-powered submarines.
Originally, Xiaomi planned to fully promote this material and use this noise-cancelling material to build itself into a high-end brand in the audio and video industry like Sony. However, due to military use, this type of material was directly stopped from civilian use.
The Xiaomi Ultra, released 25 years later, still has an unbounded audio and video system, but the noise canceling effect is not as good as that of the earliest version.
If it were not for military use, the entire sound-absorbing material could be built into an emerging industry.
To put it simply, Space-Volkswagen Super Factory and promoting the upgrading of the industrial chain are what the local government wants to obtain. Space ore smelting is a subsequent expansion pack. Other black technologies are surprises. If you have them, you can make money. It’s big, it’s not a loss if you don’t have it.
The night after Chen Yuanguang returned to Shenhai, he told Lin Jia the conditions for the dinner at Jiangcheng. After hearing this, Lin Jia didn't pay much attention to it: "Okay, I understand. Originally, we had been Everyone is considering Jiangcheng.
I will communicate more with Jiangcheng in the future.
I watched your speech, and it was very good. I still remember that when you were in college, you stuttered when I asked you to give a PPT lecture. "Lin Jia quickly changed the topic to Chen Yuanguang's speech today.
"Of course, after all, I have experienced so much, and it is not normal for me to change. "Chen Yuanguang said.
Lin Jia asked curiously: "Do you really feel lonely? "
"Occasionally. "What Chen Yuanguang thinks in his heart is actually often, when you are not around.
A special plane from Washington landed at Yanjing International Airport. There was no red carpet, no flowers, and no guard of honor.
Only Amerikan’s own people will pick you up at the airport.
"Fred, long time no see, has the White House finally reached an agreement?"
Fred and Amerikan smiled bitterly after shaking hands and hugging the ambassador of the University of Tokyo: "Of course, if If the White House does not reach an agreement, it will not be the two of us coming this time.”
The ones coming are Fred Fleitz and Eric Branstad.
Just these two, no one else.
They were all core members of the campaign team in 2024. They made the right bet in the 2024 general election and followed the rise of chickens and dogs into the White House and held important positions.
Fred was the deputy director of a company called Amerikan Priority Policy Research Institute 24 years ago. Just by hearing this name, you know that he would not be able to side with the Donkey Party in 24 years.
It is providing aid to the Ermao and providing free weapons to Asian countries. The behavior of the Donkey Party has nothing to do with America's priority.
The latter was idle at home for many years 24 years ago, and before that was a senior adviser to the White House on business affairs.
In short, the two of them used to work in the business field, and this time they come back to Dongda to discuss conditions, and they are a good fit.
“What conditions is the White House willing to offer?” the ambassador asked curiously.
Fred looked around vigilantly: "I can only say that it is a very sincere condition." Even though he was surrounded by his own people, Fred was still unwilling to reveal the bargaining chips easily.
Generally before the real bosses meet to sign the contract, the clerks below have almost negotiated the conditions.
The Fred and Eric we are talking about this time belong to this kind of clerk role.
"Well, I can only say that the country of China today is different from the past in many aspects. In Chinese, it is called the present.
The country of China today is completely different from the country of China five years ago. The difference is that conditions that sounded sincere five years ago may not be as sincere as the White House thinks they are today, five years later.
The position of ambassador has always been responsible for information collection. In particular, Amerikan's ambassador's ability to collect information is far above average.
Their information is even more accurate, faster and more comprehensive than many local media people in Dongda.
Often Tokyo University’s financial media didn’t know what was going on, and the news sent back to Wall Street from Ambassador Amerikan was published in their own media by Bloomberg, Reuters and others.
The media of Dongda even wanted to reprint Bloomberg’s gossip about Dongda’s financial stimulus policy. For a while, I didn’t know who the media of Dongda was.
“Of course, of course I know, but the conditions are all negotiated, and we are very sincere this time.”
It is still very cold in Yanjing in February, and there are clouds of smoke floating in the sky. The raindrops of snow and the cold weather meant that they ended their conversation without even exchanging a few words in the cold wind.
In the private car, Eric, who had been silent before, finally spoke. He pointed at the blue and white car outside the window and asked: "Is that a driverless taxi from Dongda outside? ? I don’t see anyone in the driver’s seat.”
“Yes, the blue and white driverless taxis are from Baidu,” the ambassador said, adding as a Huaguotong employee. China's driverless technology is very mature.
If a technology like autonomous driving, which involves risk factors, is not very mature, it will not be allowed to be launched in Yanjing.
According to my information, if the computing power of a quantum computer provides encrypted communication guarantee for driverless taxis in other places, then there are ten driverless taxis in Yanjing. Quantum computers provide him with computing power guarantee. This is Yanjing. If all cities in China become cyberpunk cities in the future, Yanjing will definitely be the last to change. "
Eric continued to ask: "Are the red and green ones also driverless taxis? Eric was even more surprised.
Because although the blue and white car does not have a driver, it does have a steering wheel. The red and green car does not even have a steering wheel. The whole car is not full, and the front row is not full. There were two people, and there was one person in the back. Eric observed it several times. When he got to the back of the car, he even opened the window and looked back.
The size of the red and green car was not there. There is even a feeling of old man's joy on it, and the whole color scheme does not look low-grade. To achieve this, it still tests the manufacturer's industrial design level.
The ambassador nodded: "Yes, this is the cheapest driverless taxi in China. The price for ten kilometers is only US$1. If you get a coupon or during the event, it doesn't even cost US$1.
This is a driverless taxi operated by Huawei and produced by SAIC-Wuling. It has a very interesting name, Candy Colorful, which is completely different from Huawei’s previous car-making style.
Netizens from China. They like to joke that this car is a candy box, and when they sit in this car, they become candy, and then go to the company and be eaten by the boss.”
Because the ambassador mentioned before, only when the technology is mature enough can we work in Yan. Beijing has launched driverless taxis without steering wheels. Dongda’s driverless technology is more mature than they imagined.
For a while, Eric became more silent and looked worried, while Fred was in a better state. He had some knowledge of Dongda’s driverless technology before, and when he was mentally prepared, he seemed not to So worried:
"Where's Wright's Terminator? You know, it's the silver-white robot. Are there any robot-driven taxis in Yanjing?" The ambassador shook his head: "It's obviously purely experimental, as Wright said. He said that Guangjia Aerospace has no plans to get involved in the driverless taxi business
According to the information we have received, Wright’s father-in-law had tried hard to get Wright to do so at the instigation of Ali’s Jack Ma. Let's start a driverless business with them. Wright's father-in-law also has a stake in Ali's driverless taxi business.
But Wright rejected it.
At the same time, it is very likely because of China. The driverless taxi business is too fierce. Guangjia Aerospace has technical advantages, but no cost advantages.
We don’t know exactly what Wright was thinking. "
Fred frowned after hearing this, "Have you ever had dinner with Wright? ”
It is part of the daily work for the ambassador to invite Chinese celebrities to dinner. Eating means communication, and communication means that the other party has passed the information to you inadvertently.
This It’s not just a simple daily job, it can even be said to be a very important job.
Speaking of this, the ambassador was also a little depressed, "No, I have always wanted to invite Wright to dinner, and even the place he designated, I was alone. It was no problem to go to the appointment and go through strict inspection before meeting, but Wright did not accept it. He seemed to be very resistant to Amerikan. ”
What worries Amerikan the most is that Chen Yuanguang is too young. He is so young that it will affect the competition in the next fifty years. This is much more uncomfortable than the Sword of Damocles.
The ambassador even complained about the White House: "As a scientist who once studied in America, the White House should not have such deep hostility towards Wright.
Wright is completely something we can win over. Friend."
Fred smiled bitterly, thinking that if the previous action had been successful, you would definitely not say that.
A rare silence fell in the car.
"The damn room is so old." Fred complained as he walked into Eric's room.
Obviously it is safe enough here. If it is not safe here, then there is no safe place.
"It's like the empire is crumbling, isn't it?" Eric said.
Fred nodded: "Yes, you are right."
He walked straight to the chair opposite, sat down and said: "America's car market alone, really Can it satisfy Dongda’s appetite?”
Eric said: "Why not? For Dongda, they need the Amerikan market.
The conditions offered to them in Europe are not good, and the conditions we can offer are better than those in Europe. Much more.”
As mentioned before, the key to HBM technology lies in topological semi-metal chips. In the past six months, HBM technology has been open sourced, but topological semi-metal chips have not.
Currently, this chip is only sold to Europe and is strictly regulated by China and is not allowed to flow into North America.
In half a year, Americen and Europe worked together to verify HBM technology, proving that without topological semi-metal chips, HBM technology would not be able to realize its advantages at all, and would even be inferior to traditional artificial intelligence technology.
But once the topological semi-metal chip was added, a qualitative leap occurred, and the first principles of robots were fully demonstrated at this moment.
In other words, if you don’t get Dongda’s topological semi-metal chip, then you can’t even think about developing HBM, which means you have no way to compete with your opponents in the field of robotics.
In order to obtain the import of HBM chips from Dongda, Americen offered a bargaining chip to allow Dongda’s new energy vehicles to be imported into the Americen market. The only requirement was that 5% of the car’s parts were used. Ten or more require Amerikan localization.
Either you come to Americen to build a factory, or you buy the parts produced by Americen.
This is a bargaining chip for Dongda. Being able to export excess production capacity, Ameri's purchasing power is beyond doubt.
Such conditions sacrifice the interests of car companies such as Tesla, Toyota, and Honda.
At this moment, Musk was undoubtedly abandoned.
Because there is another plan, which is to let Dongda’s smartphones come in, which is to sacrifice Apple’s interests.
Obviously Apple’s interests are greater than Tesla’s.
“We all know that the open source of HBM technology was promoted by Wright. I very much doubt that the open source of HBM is to gather global research and development power and advance HBM technology to the next stage.
After all, it's just brainwave data from China, and the racial diversity is too lacking.
Of course this is just my guess
But as the ambassador said, we are running out of time.
Now American still has the advantage of purchasing power, and capital still has certain confidence in American.
If the situation continues to develop, if America's purchasing power declines, then we will really be doomed. ”
It is obvious that American does not dare to start a real fight. Under the threat of Dongda's new silent nuclear submarine, the possibility of American taking the initiative is infinitely close to zero, unless the end of the world comes.
The remaining advantage of Americen is that it is the continuation of the past system. The past system has not been completely broken by Dongda, which means that the US dollar still has purchasing power, and Americen’s consumption power still exists. This has been It is the only bargaining chip that Amerikan has to keep its current structure from collapsing.
The underlying logic of purchasing power is that everyone still recognizes you as the leader of the martial arts alliance. In other words, Dongda may be on an equal footing with the leader of the martial arts alliance in terms of force, but if this position has not been handed over through the martial arts conference, then everyone still recognizes you.
Everyone agrees, which means that everyone will still pay for the chips you offer. If you use US dollars whose actual value is far lower than the currency value to buy my goods, I will still sell them to you.
Whenever purchasing power is no longer recognized, Amerikan will really be doomed.
Purchasing power is related to confidence. In an era when capital from all over the world is less and less enthusiastic about pouring into American, American urgently needs key events such as smart networks, artificial intelligence, and SpaceX to boost confidence.
For Amerikan, HBM is a very suitable opportunity.
