Chapter 1185 Daming’s Leek Harvester (Third update, please subscribe)
What is killing without blood?
This is killing without bloodshed!
Technology can be bought!
However, what you buy is not necessarily advanced technology. Even if you buy advanced technology, the so-called advanced technology may still be a sugar-coated bullet.
What the Ming Dynasty needs now is to use its leading edge in technology to wrap the sugar-coated bullet into a beautiful gift for the British and Americans, so that they can develop a reliance on Ming Dynasty technology without realizing it, and then destroy their own technological research and development, so that they lose the motivation to research technology. After all, technology can be bought.
What about during this process?
Those scientific and technical personnel from Britain, the United States and other countries lost their jobs because the companies were not interested in researching new technologies, or had no place to use their intelligence and talents. In this case, they came to Daming for a living, and Daming could take the opportunity to harvest a wave of technical personnel.
With these leeks, the development of the Ming Empire's technology can be further promoted, thus allowing the empire's technology to enter a virtuous circle. This will definitely not do any harm to the empire.
To a certain extent, the Empire was using the money and talents of Europe and America to research technology, sell the new technologies to Europe and America, and then squeeze the living space of technicians from various countries, forcing them to come to Ming for a better life and research...
Don’t say this is impossible. The United States in another world is very skilled at this.
On the one hand, they export seemingly advanced but actually backward technologies, suppressing the technological research and development of developing countries. On the other hand, they use high salaries to poach technical talents from developing countries, enrich their own intellectual resources, and promote the development of new technologies...
In fact, for Emperor Zhu, the best teacher is the Anglo-Saxons. Although he has always been an enemy of the Anglo-Saxons in this world, he has been learning from the Anglo-Saxons in another world, how they use their own advantages to continuously send sugar-coated bullets around the world while constantly cutting leeks...
What the Ming Dynasty needs now is to learn from the "good experience" of the Anglo-Saxons in another world.
"beep……"
Accompanied by the sound of the cruise ship's whistle, the 28,000-ton luxury cruise ship "New World" from Europe, built by Nanhua Shipbuilding Company, is slowly entering Yingtian Port.
When the ship was about to enter Yingtian Port, the deck was crowded with passengers from Europe. They had different identities, but most of them looked excited, perhaps because the long voyage was about to end, or perhaps because they had finally arrived in this "paradise on earth."
“We’re finally here…”
Dr. Van Hove, a Dutch-born man who had just published the book Research on Chemical Kinetics, was undoubtedly excited at this moment.
“Emperor Award nomination!”
After learning the news, Van Hove was so excited that he couldn't sleep the whole night. How could he not be excited? It was not because of the bonus, but because his research results were recognized by the world.
Even though it's just a nomination.
But now that I have been nominated, I am not far from winning the award.
“Heaven on earth…”
While Van Hove was mumbling to himself, excited about his nomination, and even readily accepted the offer from Yingtian University, at the other end of the deck, Wilhelm Roentgen seemed a little lost.
As a scientist, in another world, he won the Nobel Prize for discovering X-rays. But in this world, by chance, X-rays were discovered by Li Lun.
It was precisely because of this missed discovery that Wilhelm Roentgen is still just an ordinary professor at the University of Jissen, mainly studying the relationship between "light" and "electricity".
Of course, he also devoted a lot of enthusiasm to the study of X-rays, but like other scholars, he was just studying its application in practical fields. In this regard, some medical equipment companies in the empire had long left them far behind.
The reason why Wilhelm Roentgen came to the Ming Dynasty was as a visiting scholar. Last year, he received an invitation letter from the Department of Physics of Zhongdu Imperial University. After receiving the invitation, Wilhelm Roentgen hesitated for a long time. After all, the Ming Empire... is the academic temple of the whole world. As a visiting scholar, what can he communicate with his peers?
"Study, I came here to study!"
Wilhelm Röntgen said this to himself.
When he was talking to himself, he could not help but cast his eyes on the candidates who won the "Emperor Award". Those candidates were the world's top scientists. From the moment they uploaded, they attracted the attention of everyone in the world. Along the way, they were sought after by the world, and reporters and ladies surrounded them.
Even now... at the dock in Yingtian, a grand welcome ceremony is held for them.
As the ocean liner slowly approached the port, the Imperial Navy officer standing on the dock... no, that's right, it should be the Imperial Crown Prince Zhu Youlin, who was waiting for the arrival of the cruise ship with a smile on his face.
On this cruise ship were sixty-nine of the best scientists from Europe and America, including candidates for the "Emperor's Grand Prize" and intellectual talents introduced by the empire.
"Did you know, Wanyun, there are a million troops on this ship!"
"What?"
Sun Wanyun, the crown princess of the empire, dressed in gorgeous palace clothes, looked at her husband in confusion.
"A million troops? What million troops?"
"them……"
Zhu Youlin turned his eyes to the scientists on the cruise ship.
"My father said that they are more important to the empire than a million troops! Half of them have already accepted invitations from various universities in the empire. Some will give lectures in the universities, and some will stay in the universities as visiting scholars for a few years. Their arrival will inject new vitality into the academic world of the empire. To the empire, they are an invisible million-strong army..."
Looking up at the giant ship, Zhu Youlin said.
"And every year, a million-strong army comes to the empire, Wanyun. This is why our father asked us to come here, to welcome them."
At this moment, in his eyes, what kind of ships are these? They are clearly containers loaded with the smartest brains in Europe and America.
Just like what was said in the newspaper, this ship is the ship of wisdom sailing towards the empire!
Amid the sound of whistles and military band music, the cruise ship finally docked.
"A million troops..."
Once again, the crown prince of the empire muttered these words. In fact, their role was even greater than that of a million troops...
