Chapter 740 Chapter 741 Funding is a bottomless pit
Those who do scientific research don't really care where they do their research. They only care about funding, and as long as the funding is sufficient and allows them to work without any worries, that's more important than anything else.
Leng Ning smiled awkwardly.
"Can you please tell me how many space jades you can get for research every day? What is the actual demand?" Chong asked the person in charge.
The commander even told the people here about the Leng family's production of space jade. If she is short of experimental materials when she goes to City A, will people say she is stingy?
Look, he just said that, it's obvious that he is longing to go to City A.
So many high-tech talents followed her to City A, how could she have the nerve to disappoint them...
"Only five a day." The person in charge said unhappily.
In fact, there were only two in the beginning, and he applied to the higher-ups several times before they gave him more. If he applied again, the higher-ups would not approve it no matter what.
They even argued that they were only burning money and could not produce any output at all.
They don’t even think about the fact that if they are not given sufficient experimental materials to do the experiments, it would be strange if they can succeed!
Edison tried nearly 1,600 materials when selecting filaments, and the number of experiments far exceeded this number, and this was only for the filaments of electric light bulbs.
They are now exploring a completely unknown direction, which requires them to boldly make multiple guesses and then conduct experiments to verify each guess. This is not something that can be achieved by conducting thousands of experiments.
"Oh, if we need it, the more the better," the person in charge followed.
"Haha, the more the better, about how much?" Leng Ning asked with a smile. Hearing the number five, Leng Ning admitted that she felt more at ease.
The person in charge thought for a moment.
"Well... five hundred pieces a day should be enough now. We have enough manpower here, and if the experimental materials are sufficient, we can branch out and develop in groups at the same time." It's not like it is now, where people in various research directions can only queue up to wait for space jade artifacts, which is a waste of time!
Leng Ning's eyes widened.
Five hundred pieces a day? If a month is thirty days, that's fifteen thousand space jade pieces. If these space jade pieces are converted into crystal cores, it would be...
Leng Ning didn't want to calculate any further.
This is just the cost of experimental materials for one direction of one project of the scientific research base. Moreover, they are talking about now...
The commander really thinks highly of her. How did he tell the people at the research base...
"This is the only way to avoid delaying the progress. Mr. Leng, on this side..." The person in charge finally noticed that Leng Ning's expression was unnatural and asked.
The person in charge is a straightforward scientific research fanatic who doesn't know much about the ways of the world.
After receiving a call from Commander Li and being told that the Leng Group would provide them with sufficient scientific research materials and funds, he really thought that things would be as their leader said.
So when Leng Ning asked him just now, he told the truth.
"It's okay. We at Leng Group can provide 500 space jade artifacts every day. You can focus on your research after you go there." Leng Ning gritted his teeth in his heart.
Although five hundred space jade pieces are worth a lot of money, they are produced by themselves and the cost is not high. As for the extra experimental materials, the worst that can happen is that they can ask Heyu Town to increase the workload and produce an extra batch for the scientific research base every day.
In short, she would try her best not to let the laboratory touch the goods of Leng and Yu Company unless it was absolutely necessary.
Wang Jie's eyes flickered as he listened.
As expected of the Leng family, they are rich!
After hearing Leng Ning's words, the person in charge also smiled excitedly.
The chief really didn't lie to him. Once they arrived in City A, they could really do what they wanted!
"Don't worry, Mr. Leng. If we have enough experimental materials, we are confident that we can find out the standard for the energy storage of space jade within a month!" The person in charge said excitedly. He spontaneously wanted to express his determination and confidence to Leng Ning.
This statement shocked Wang Jie. He now understood why their leader was willing to agree to Leng Tangzhu's conditions.
This scientific research base is just like a bottomless pit, isn't it? With the current situation of their Kyoto base, it won't be able to play a role even if they control it.
As for the future. After the zombies in Kyoto are cleared and the safe zone is built, they still have to help other cities and purify the entire China. How can they spare the money to support such a money-eating beast...
Leng Ning felt a huge pain in his heart.
Fifteen thousand space jades a month can only help us figure out the standard for the space jades to store energy?
"Yeah. Okay. I have confidence in you." Even though he felt pain in his heart, Leng Ning still gave a positive response to the person in charge.
Since we are going to take these top talents back with us, it is still necessary to win over their hearts.
In addition, having experienced this in her previous life, she knew that the results would come out sooner or later.
In the previous life, the results came out very late because the Kyoto base did not have enough financial resources to support them.
But she is different. As long as she is willing to invest, the research and development progress of the scientific research base will be greatly accelerated.
It won’t take as long as in her previous life for her to see results.
These things will be the key to the transformation of Leng’s core industries at that time, and it will be worth it no matter how much you pay.
"Please continue to talk about your third research direction." Leng Ning returned to the previous topic and asked the person in charge.
The money should be spent, and there is no point in worrying about it. I'd better not waste my brain cells thinking about it.
Lei Ting and Wang Jie also looked at the person in charge.
"The third research direction is aimed at crystal cores." The person in charge said.
"Everyone knows that there is energy in the crystal core, but this energy can only be absorbed by people with special abilities. We are trying to conduct in-depth research on the crystal core to see if we can discover the secret and find a way to directly use the crystal core as an energy source."
Everyone was stunned.
Using crystal cores as energy sources? It sounds like it makes sense. After all, the current superpowers use crystal cores as energy sources to some extent.
Absorbing the crystal core can improve the power of the supernatural power. After the mental power is depleted, the energy in the crystal core can also help the supernatural power recover mental power. Isn't this the source of energy?
This - it sounds like it does have some research value.
"At this stage, we are trying to decompose and dissolve crystal nuclei of different colors and grades, using physical and chemical methods to explore the crystal nuclei, looking for differences between various crystal nuclei, and finding the patterns," the person in charge continued.
Leng Ning's heart sank, and he thought of the word "burning money" again.
Seeing the person in charge looking at him with a smile again, Leng Ning had no choice but to smile back at him.
