Respecting his wishes is just wishful thinking on Bob's part.
He was just a retired astronaut.
Even if Armstrong were alive, he would not have had the power to refuse the state apparatus.
Bob disappeared shortly after going to Los Angeles.
Without even thinking, Luo Shu could guess that the other party had been absorbed into a secret organization by America to explore the virtual world.
He thought to himself that, given his relationship with Bob, even if Bob really was going, he would have a meal with him before leaving.
As a result, Bob disappeared from the world without a trace, and the WeChat messages stopped the day after he arrived in Los Angeles.
Based on this, Luo Shu concluded that America must be controlling its exploration of the virtual world even more strictly.
Soon Bob's job was taken over by another NASA astronaut, and Roshu did not become a member of the management team, even if it was just a basic management position, because of his seniority.
With both factors combined, Luo Shu suddenly became disheartened about buying virtual reality equipment.
In his view, even if he managed to buy the virtual reality equipment, it would most likely be taken away directly by America.
Going to the FBI would mean even less freedom, and leaving America smoothly would become a pipe dream.
Luo Shu simply gave up and waited until "Future" was widely available and everyone had one before he would rush to buy one.
He learned from various user introductions, official promotions, and official settings that the magical world is a planet much larger than Earth.
With a planet this big, even if countless people went in before, it would be impossible for them to take all the opportunities.
Luo Shu had been away from China for too long, and even among her colleagues who were Asian, they were either Japanese, Korean, or ABCs.
He hadn't spoken Chinese for a long time; the word "chance" seemed to be stuck in the last century for Luo Shu.
Loshu was disheartened in a small Texas town, but he did not give up any chance to escape.
Meanwhile, Singapore's biophotovoltaic technology is preparing to ship globally.
Photovoltaic technology is a rare industry in which China has a competitive advantage worldwide.
In the first half of the 2020s, China held 80 percent of the global market share, and at its peak, it even approached 90 percent.
Even though America is cracking down on China's advantageous technology industries, with the photovoltaic industry being a key target, the United States is still actively targeting China's technology industries.
America imposes an additional tariff of 25% on photovoltaic products.
The additional tariff rate was reduced, and different photovoltaic modules had different tariffs.
America imposed additional tariffs on Chinese photovoltaic products, prompting major Chinese photovoltaic manufacturers to first send their products to Southeast Asian countries, label them in Vietnam, and then sell them to developed countries such as America.
Especially after European and American countries accelerated their photovoltaic and wind power new energy installation plans in 2022, many listed companies in China's photovoltaic industry are expected to see their annual profits increase by more than 100%.
Even so, why aren't the stock prices of companies in the upstream and downstream of the photovoltaic industry chain rising?
The fundamental reason is still expectation. According to a research report by Alberto, Managing Director of Global Investment Research at Goldman Sachs, in 2022:
Due to the large-scale shipments of photovoltaic modules from 2020 to 2022, coupled with the sluggish economic situation in the future, the photovoltaic industry will experience a significant decline in demand in 2023.
This view is not unique to Goldman Sachs; many investment institutions share this opinion.
However, this does not mean that Goldman Sachs is necessarily right. They also issued a research report in 2018, which stated that the photovoltaic industry was entering a downturn.
As a result, the photovoltaic industry ushered in a period of tremendous development.
Similarly, their predictions made in 2022 were indeed validated in 2023, but after 2024, the photovoltaic industry once again saw a surge in strong demand.
The combination of technological breakthroughs has led to a frenzy of investment from investment institutions and investors towards photovoltaic industry stocks.
In 2020, China's photovoltaic industry accounted for 80% of the market share, but by 2030, this market share has actually declined.
China's photovoltaic industry accounts for only about 50% of the market share.
The lost market share has been gradually regained by developed countries.
Artificial intelligence has entered all walks of life. Coupled with China's economic development and population issues, it has led to the loss of its advantage in labor.
In 2020, the American Department of Energy invested 7.3 million US dollars in artificial intelligence solutions for solar energy applications.
At that time, these solutions mainly focused on improving the performance and reliability of photovoltaic modules, photovoltaic power plants, and CSP power plants; solar output prediction; and grid situational awareness.
Later, with the development of artificial intelligence technology, internet giants led by China and America have stepped into the field of complete industrial intelligent solutions.
The landscape of photovoltaics has been completely changed.
China's market share worldwide has been declining year by year, and the downward trend is very obvious.
Previously, China's cost of photovoltaic modules was 10% lower than India's, 20% lower than America's, and 35% lower than that of Europe.
By 2031, China's cost advantage in photovoltaic modules will have vanished, leaving only a cost advantage of about three percent.
Compared to Europa, the cost advantage is greater, by about five percent.
The main reason is that industrial energy prices are higher in Europe than in China.
