Chapter 408: We share the same expectations

In terms of forbidden research, Han Songlin is a kind of centrist. He does not support research, but he also will not oppose it! After all, if humans want to better understand themselves, then research in the field of genetics will definitely go deeper.

If the gene for longevity is found (to increase lifespan), then the development of human civilisation will take a giant leap forward. The lifespan of humans has become a huge limitation on the development of human technology to a higher level.

If humans had the lifespan of a tortoise, the pace of technological development would be even faster.

'So, the chief scientist of Xingchen Academy, have you found someone?'

Han Songlin gently rubbed his chin, and the stubble on his fingertips gave off a feeling of friction.

The chief scientist must be highly respected and have sufficient strength.

Xingchenyuan does not pay attention to seniority, but rather the capable.

If it is not in terms of academics, it is really not a good comparison. Han Songlin even wants to organise an academic competition, whoever is the best will be in charge.

If academic ability cannot be directly compared, it may be possible to make a comprehensive judgement through other means.

There is no first in literature and no second in martial arts!

It is hard for a strong person to accept being worse than others; unless one side completely convinces the other.

'Perhaps, there is a candidate, we can try!' A candidate suddenly popped into Han Songlin's mind.

Lin Wei did not have any expectations for the chief scientist of the Xingchen Academy at this time; without expectations, naturally she would not want to compete for the position.

'Who?'

'Li Guangnan!'

Li Guangnan, this is a person who is very well-known in the scientific and technological community.

'You want to poach the chief engineer of Fantasy Company? People at Fantasy Company are capable!' Luo Xiaozhong's office computer is from Fantasy Company, so he has a little knowledge of this high-tech company.

Li Guangnan is one of the first academicians of the Chinese Academy of Engineering.

His level of expertise is evident.

Han Songlin's mouth curled up into a smile. The dispute between Liu Li has a significant impact on the business history of Chinese companies.

The technician-trader route and the trader-technician route!

The technician-commerce route, I won't go into detail, but the model of Fuxing Industry and Fuxing Power, which emphasises technological research and development, industrial production, and finally sales.

For the trader-technologist route, the most important thing is to do a good job of sales, with marketing as king; the second most important thing is production, and technological research and development comes last.

After that, there were two representatives of sales CEOs, Yang from Fantasy Company and Miss Dong from Gerry.

After the two companies had done a good job of sales, their development choices were different again.

Gerry started spending money, spending large sums of money on technology.

As for Fantasy Company, it spent money to acquire IBM's business computer brand. It didn't learn much about technology, but sales were quite good, and it simply reduced the configuration of high-end Internet computers and sold them.

Companies that play with trade and technology naturally value sales because they have greatly tasted the sweetness of relying on sales, and most companies subconsciously ignore technology.

Who would bother with research and development when you can make money so easily? It's hard work and not always appreciated.

To be honest, if Han Songlin didn't have Fule Liquor in his hands, he wouldn't dare to invest in research and development without regard for costs.

Fule Liquor makes money!

With sufficient funds behind him and knowing some of the future development trends, Han Songlin naturally dares to invest heavily in technology research and development.

Even if there is no successful research and development in the short term, he won't worry too much.

There is a big difference between having confidence and not having confidence.

'Last year, Fantasy already relieved Li Guangnan of his position as Chief Engineer.'

'Why?'

Han Songlin shrugged and said, 'A dispute over the company's development direction! In the past, Fantasy relied on Li Guangnan's technology to get its first pot of gold in the market. Now Fantasy wants to transform, and does not want to invest a lot of money in research and development, but rather focus on sales.'

'Li Guangnan wanted Fantasy to be technology-oriented and engage in research and development.'

'If a researcher's direction within the company does not match that of the management, then naturally they will be kicked out. Because they no longer fit in with the company's future development strategy.'

In the business world, there is no room for sentiment!

Han Songlin said, looking at Lin Wei and the others and smiling, 'Don't worry, at Xinghai Group, technological research and development will always be the top priority.'

That being said, judging from the next move of Fantasy Company, from a conspiracy theory perspective, it seems that someone deliberately wants to shift towards trade, industry and technology.

By reducing its reliance on technology, can it get rid of the influence of the Computer Research Institute of the Huaxi Academy of Sciences on Fantasy Company?

In that case, will Liu Zhuan be able to successfully take the company over?

After a company has been taken over, if you want to engage in technology, but find that the route has already been chosen, it is no longer possible to transform.

There is no way of knowing what really happened, but no matter what the outcome, Han Songlin knows that Fantasy Company became the world's largest PC assembly manufacturer for a time.

For a period of time, Fantasy Company was the pride of Huaguo.

But slowly it also became a negative example that people kept pushing.

Lin Wei didn't care about this. For her, Han Songlin would never deceive her.

Indeed, Han Songlin had never deceived Lin Wei.

As for Yan Jun and Yang Zixing, Han Songlin had always attached great importance to research and development, so they were not worried at all.

'Li Guangnan, will he come?' Luo Xiaozhong was a little skeptical. After all, at this time, the Xingchen Academy was too small a temple.

'In a couple of days, I'll go to the capital city myself and talk to Academician Li Guangnan. I think we'll have a lot in common.'

Han Songlin was confident.

Who else in the world could understand the direction of technological development over the next twenty years better than he could?

He had experienced it all first-hand.

Li Guangnan was a traditional intellectual with a deep love for his country, and he hoped to develop his own technology.

At this time, the country was dominated by a policy of borrowing and copying from other countries. To be honest, don't blame us, because at this time, the country really didn't have the money to do research and development.

After our economic strength has increased, our investment in research and development has been increasing year after year.

As for the problem of increasing investment in research and development year after year but low research and development output, we must give it some time to adjust.

After all, in the past, not much attention was paid to scientific research, and there were some problems in the management of scientific research.

That's why Li Guangnan had a hard time finding like-minded people!

Perhaps Han Songlin's Xinghai Group was his only, and best, choice.

Liu Yuyan's eyebrows twitched slightly as she looked at Han Songlin, wanting to say something, but nothing came out.

Although she didn't like it when Han Songlin left the house, after all, Han Songlin had important things to do, and she couldn't be a drag.

'If you can trick an academician into coming, then your Xinghai Group will become very famous!'

At this time, Jiangzhong did not yet have a single academician!

As for the academicians of the Xingchen Academy?

Everyone knows that it is just a bunch of amateurs, so who cares?

Lin Wei chuckled, 'I'm looking forward to it too!'

Han Songlin let out a small sigh of relief. He was really worried that people would be hostile when they came.

Xinghai Group invests a lot of money in research and development every year, so basically no one needs to worry about a lack of funding.

However, as more and more talented people join the company, more and more projects are started.

It can even happen that two or even several research and development teams work on similar projects. In this case, there is actually already a competitive relationship between the research and development teams.

There is actually competition in research and development; in addition to internal competition, there is also external competition.

Someone else may patent a technology first; even if you have completed 99% of the research and development of the same technology, it is useless.
