Bind to the collection system, I became a national treasure

Chapter 335 Great Power Game

“Universities and research institutions have all offered olive branches one after another, wanting to get a share of the pie, but I want to stabilize my position first and do pure scientific research.”

Dean Zhao continued.

Bai Xi: "So now you don't want to be pure anymore, right?"

Dean Zhao: "Hehe... Mainly because the conditions there are so good."

“We don’t need anything, just send some visiting scholars, and the participating papers will be jointly signed with ‘UAE’ as a research institution, but that’s not a problem at all.”

"The academic community knows that when they see the name of a Middle Eastern university, they can automatically filter it out. Basically, they just donate money... It won't affect any academic honors. The sponsorship is 100 million!"

"They just hope that if there are practical results in the future, they will have priority rights for overseas cooperation. This involves you, Bai Yatou. We have discussed it before. The academic level belongs to the school, and the commercial level belongs to you. I just called to ask."

Bai Xi: "Your stance is too unsteady..."

Dean Zhao: "The main reason is that they gave too much... and asked for too little..."

"One hundred million... isn't that bad?"

"Dollars."

"understood."

That's fine.

..........

It’s not surprising that the Chiefs of Allen want to get their hands on “biobatteries”.

The wealthy people in the Middle East all yearn for green energy, and they are the group of people in the world who pay the most attention to this field.

Just to keep a boat ticket in the new era.

After all, if oil is abandoned, they won't be able to grow even a vegetable in most places. This is not a gamble for one or two years, but a gamble for 50 or 100 years.

Khalid and the others have already invested more than one billion in this field. The rich countries in the Middle East may have tens of billions in total, so they are indeed generous.

Judging from what Dean Zhao described, it seems that if we just get a little help, we can get a large amount of funding...

In terms of academics, co-authorship and exchange of scholars are Fudan’s rights. If President Zhao thinks it is feasible, Bai Xi has no objection.

However, the business part, the so-called overseas priority cooperation rights...is Bai Xi's part.

Theoretically, Khalid may not be aware that biobatteries have already achieved "practical results". In his mind, this investment, like other investments, has a high probability of being wasted.

But Bai Xi knew that Khalid was actually lucky. As soon as he dug the shovel, oil would come out.

After hanging up the phone with President Zhao, Bai Xi learned that Xu Zhiwen had gone out to work and Khalid was also at the exhibition. So he asked Luo Hua to take the steering wheel and turn to the hotel where Yang Ru was.

The place where Yang Ru and his friends live is not far from the venue, and it is much more organized than the resort hotel.

A lonely building with only a small supermarket downstairs. It might be a cooperative hotel with the military. It is so boring...

Fortunately we don't live here together.

Yang Ru was waiting at the door of the hall and waved.

He smiled and said, "Boss Bai, are you ready to return to the team?"

"No, it's too boring here. I just want to chat with Brother Yang."

Although Yang Ru is an assembly worker and has nothing to do with bioenergy, he has sufficient experience and should be familiar enough with the rich people. It would be right to consult him.

The two went to Yang Ru's room, and Bai Xi told him that Khalid wanted to use the bio-battery and wanted to hear Yang Ru's advice.

He still doesn't know enough about these rich people and things at a higher level. If he didn't know Khalid, he wouldn't pay attention to this group of people at all.

After hearing this, Yang Ru touched his chin and began to think.

"In fact, we have relatively friendly relations with all the Middle Eastern countries, but if I had to say, the UAE is relatively closer... They are not like Saudi Arabia, they are more neutral and have more independent opinions."

"From an organizational perspective, we naturally prefer to keep the supply chain domestically, but in reality, overseas business expansion is also inevitable... We can't play these two cards at home or abroad, and there's no conflict."

"Most importantly, Mr. Bai, how powerful is your technology? Does it have a bright future? Is it a big deal?"

He doesn't understand solar energy, but he understands Bai Xi, and nothing is unimportant under Bai Xi's hands.

Bai Xi leaned back in the chair and thought for a moment.

At the current stage, biobatteries are already disruptive products. Let’s put it this way, they are 10 years ahead of the times.

This is to say the least.

Compared with other people's technology at this stage, it is like the difference between iPhone 14 and iPhone 4.

However, it is not yet at the level of changing the world, and is far inferior to the black technology such as "mechanical intelligence".

So she never took it too seriously.

But as for the future...

Bai Xi said: "At this stage, we are only ahead by about 10 years, but there is still potential for improvement in the future."

Yang Ru blinked. What do you mean: only ten years ahead?

Bai Xi asked curiously, "What if there are even stronger prospects, such as further technological advancements in the future?"

Yang Ru smiled and said, "Wouldn't that just form an alliance of interests? The organization is absolutely happy to see win-win cooperation between the two countries' business communities. In our overall strategy, that aspect is very important."

Bai Xi sighed: "Originally, I didn't plan to tinker with these things. I really don't have the energy."

Yang Ru poured Bai Xi a cup of tea and said, "You can give it a try. After all, you drink tea one sip at a time and pay money one payment at a time. It's not a gamble, haha."

Bai Xi had a general idea and then talked with Yang Ru about the air show.

The "Xuanniao" will make its debut on the last day of the air show, which is the day after tomorrow. In order to reduce the risk of leaks, it has not yet arrived in Zhuhai. It will probably arrive around tomorrow night.

Bai Xi and Yang Ru agreed to meet at the hangar tomorrow night. Those who came were all old acquaintances. In addition, she also wanted to see if she could give Xuanniao a full body examination with her current skills and vision.

Yang Ru revealed a top-secret piece of information to Bai Xi.

Due to the previous stimulation of Xuanniao, especially the elusive Yin-Yang technology, the restart of the F22 production line by the Americans has become a foregone conclusion.

"It is said that Lockheed Martin has an asking price of US$2500 billion."

How many?

Bai Xi had a "fuck" stuck in his throat.

This is just the production line price...

That’s not even counting the planes!

Yang Ru's old face was full of smiles: "Of course we can bargain and there will definitely be a discount, but I guess the final price will not be less than 1000 billion, and it will take five years..."

Money or not is secondary.

Five years! Five years of running recklessly on an outdated route...

Then we have to start construction.....A few more years have passed.....

What Bai Xi didn't know was that the game between the great powers never stopped, and this time they really made the other side's legs broken!

Bai Xi suddenly realized: "So this Zhuhai Air Show..."

Yang Ru nodded: "I just want to add fuel to the fire. They have no alternative solution, so this is the only option. In the future, Xuanniao will make more and more public appearances!"

The military-industrial complex probably knows this path is problematic, but who cares!

Let’s eat a full meal first.

The more the Xuanniao appears here, the more excuses they have to ask for money, and the more justified they become.
