Tower Defense Strategy

Chapter 186: Misfortune never comes singly

Compared with the extraterrestrial knowledge research system formed by country C based on its academy of sciences, foreign scientific research institutions have recently had their heads swollen.

Under the guidance framework of "rational people per capita in the market", the main body that promotes technological development has changed from the national team of the space race to a private company.

Why do private companies take the initiative to promote technological development?

The answer is obvious: looking forward to reaping huge profits.

The company and the company are potential competitors to each other, and there is basically only the possibility of cooperative research and development on leftover materials. In fact, even if it is leftovers, more of it is research and development in cooperation between the company and the university.

Take country A as an example. The several official scientific and technological guidance agencies headed by DRAPA, the Advanced Research Projects Agency of the Ministry of National Defense, do not have many subordinate research institutions.

Such institutions have two ways to advance scientific research.

In the first category, someone who has tossed out an unmanned small tank and felt that it would be useful in the future battlefield can submit an application for research funding support like DRAPA, and allocate money after review.

This model usually involves funds ranging from hundreds of thousands to several million in country A. DRAPA will invest in a bunch of projects that will never be on the battlefield every year. As for whether there are nepotism factors in the middle, it is difficult for outsiders to know.

Moreover, individual projects are at most using existing mature technologies as a creative combination, which does not promote technological development by itself.

In the second category, DRAPA thinks about how the future air combat will be. Various arms companies make a concept paper to discuss, and finally choose one of them to allocate funds for research and build a demonstrator for experimentation. Such a project is not an arms giant, it is best to die as far as possible.

It can be seen that these types of guidance agencies are ultimately connected to several giant companies. Arms has arms counterparts, and medicines have telephone directories of pharmaceutical companies. They are not under each other, and it is naturally difficult to form a joint force.

Universities are responsible for promoting basic research, and guiding agencies are responsible for funding giants to promote applied research. In normal times, this is not a big problem, and research with a clear purpose can save money to a certain extent.

But now is not a normal period, the frequency of monster attacks is constantly increasing, and timeliness has become extremely important.

Professor Hansen of UC University was the first to participate in the C-country online seminar.

At that time, Professor Hansen got off the meeting and asked his graduate students to get the academic account in the game.

Not to mention, after a few rounds of outsourcing, they really got it.

Then what?

Then, of course, I want money to open a project.

Here comes the problem.

The school has money, but the school has no productive capacity. The research results are good for others. Of course, they ask others for money.

But who will pay the money?

The General Administration of Aeronautics and Astronautics, the Advanced Research Projects Agency of the Ministry of National Defense, etc., all made calls.

Either they replied that they can support a little money, or "Oh, this year the project is full, and there is no additional budget."

Private companies are a bit more atmospheric, but money can be paid, and trophies are also owned by the university, but the patent must belong to the company. But this matter was done by Professor Hansen. Afterwards, the main research and development force was also the school. No matter how it looked, it was a technology investment. If the school wants to make a profit, it is impossible for the company to take away the cheap work.

Anyway, no matter who you are looking for, if you don't have enough money, or divide the spoils unevenly, there are more or less problems.

The media reported several rounds of the localization of foreign knowledge in country C. The number of professional researchers, professors, and graduate students involved alone exceeded 100,000. Professor Hansen’s hair became anxiously white. This time the plane went to various places to contact, but it was only contact, and it was far from signing the agreement to get the money.

In the end, the directors of UC University realized that they could not drag on like this. They first approved two million yuan and asked other professors to do this in advance.

What is enough for two million national currency A?

Probably enough to do ten or so superconductor material synthesis experiments, or a few more wasteful other cutting-edge experiments.

This amount of money is simply impossible to promote substantive development. It is only for professors and graduate students to read more books, do some small experiments, rent them for a while, and understand the theory first.

But think about it carefully, how can there be so many top-ranked universities in country A that only UC University is making this idea? Everyone is now embarrassed by the money.

As for whether there will be repeated research between this...I don't know, what is researched is a trade secret, can you say it casually?

Cooperation among universities?

It is difficult. Their research system has developed to this day, and it is easier to achieve synergy between universities if it is led by the company. However, the localization of extraterrestrial knowledge is what the group of scholars with higher academic attainments in the university want to understand after holding an international online conference, the company has lost the opportunity to lead.

In short, if no one is convinced, then everyone sits down and talks to see who gets through it.

The government is not completely silent. The congress masters are in a meeting to discuss funding, but it will be three months later when they come up with the charter. The media is also scolding about this every day. Anyway, calling Congress is a traditional program. .

I should say that in the military-industrial complex of country A, arms dealers are still strong.

A certain arms dealer waved the flag, DRAPA's money is already on the way, using everyone's tax money to make its own patent, that's absolutely happy!

Led by arms dealers, several universities with relevant research capabilities are engaged in the technical research of electromagnetic guns. others? Then this arms company won't worry about it.

The goal of selecting electromagnetic guns is also very clear, because the electromagnetic gun itself is a technology that is approaching mature, and the performance can fully meet the actual combat requirements, but there are problems with the mobile power supply, even if the superconductor cannot be advanced, it means that the use cost is a little higher. Does not hinder the sale of electromagnetic guns.

Not only country A, many countries that have "learned from country A's advanced model" in recent decades have also faced similar problems, but it is even worse in that these countries do not even have a military-industrial complex or similar interest groups. Up to now Haven't found a focus yet.

The group in West Central Continent, including Country E, has good and bad.

Country E, who has not solved the problem of monsterized human proliferation in a month, will not mention it. It is boring to say.

The better performers were country F, which belonged to the previously missing Dali freighter, and country G, where more than a hundred people died and killed the monsters on the spot.

These two countries still maintain a state-led scientific research system. Although the parliament is full of disturbances, the research institutions have already moved first, and the actual progress of promoting the localization of alien knowledge is second only to country C. It belongs to the second sequence.

The others belonged to the West Central Continent with these two, one and two were waste snacks, but they happened to not be attacked by monsters, otherwise their performance would only be worse than E country.

Speaking of monster attacks, the latest man to serve as a buffer for the decline of the human economy is the brother of Heizhou.

The Eth country is the seventh country in the game company survey in the number of "Planet Strategy" players. However, this country with a population of more than 100 million has three other countries among the Isr country, which has a population of only 8 million. The quantity is very low.

The Eth country is an inland country that does not face the sea at all. The country is dominated by plateau terrain with an altitude of more than two kilometers. It is reasonable to say that there are no monsters emerging on land, and it has nothing to do with monsters.

The problem is that to the east of her, it is a completely pirate-like disordered country. As soon as the monster came ashore, it directly penetrated it, and there was no news.

As a result, the two countries of Eth and Ken ushered in the monster attack that penetrated the Som country at the junction of the three countries.

Originally, in order to prevent pirates from crossing the border, the border troops just had tanks in their hands, and the terrain was not conducive to the movement of the monsters. The two big brothers took advantage of their geographical advantages and used a lot of old-fashioned weapons to kill the monster group.

Two tanks and a dozen soldiers were lost. Taking into account the lack of the latest imported equipment in the hands of the border troops, they are all decades ago. The battle damage ratio is quite good.

The news broke, and the people of Heizhou cheered.

But think about it, is this really good news?

Some reporters who were not afraid of death rented a lightly armored off-road jeep in the next country of Ken, and crossed the border and went deep into Som to explore the secrets.

The monster crossed Som to the junction of the Three Kingdoms. The shortest distance was 300 kilometers. How many people died in the process? How many humanized monsters have been produced? Why didn't you ask for help from the outside world?

Less than six hours after the car drove, the camera captured twelve firefights, eight of which appeared to be beating human monsters.

The word seems to be used mainly because the shooting postures of the people here are rather strange. Many people shoot the gun by raising the gun body to the top of the head. It is possible that tens of thousands of bullets will kill two or three people. Without sightings of the target, it is difficult to judge what they are attacking from the trajectory of the flying trajectory. It can only be inferred based on whether the opponent fired back with a firearm.

The situation was too hot. After more than a dozen stray bullets were in the body of the Jeep, a reporter injured his ear and decided to retreat.

The word "disorder" is very suitable to describe the Som country. The military and police may also board with civilians at any time to be a pirate and enjoy themselves. In some areas, teenage children have begun to carry guns and kill people. The original chaos was concentrated closer to the Golden Canal. In the north, it seems that as soon as the monster came up, the south suddenly collapsed.

The level of chaos here is that even Country A, who likes to interfere with other countries the most, is reluctant to set foot. I don't need to write about it, so Bai Zuo will rush to die.

The report focused on sorting out the timeline, how long the monster will stay in a place where people live, and through these clues, it is speculated that the monster’s landing should have happened in the middle of last month!

Reports like this are useless except to increase panic. Those who have the ability to do coastal defense and alarm communication systems have already been done well, and those who are unable to do so will not move even if they are stimulated.

But reporters eat this bowl of rice. As long as they report truthfully, the problem is not big. At least it serves as a wake-up call for some people who are still alive in their dreams.

But there are some people in the world who like to establish hostile relations through some groundwork.

For example, country E.

It has not settled its own domestic stall. As soon as Som's report came out, it turned out to be a black pot and deducted it from the northernmost country in Central Continent and the largest land area in the world, R country!

Country R has become accustomed to the ability of these guys to make a pot of nothing. The diplomatic spokesperson said directly: Yes, we put the monsters, you can check.

Does anyone dare to check? Country R really has weapons of mass destruction.

The next person to face the monster is the mad dog of country A, country Au.

Since the previous Eth and Ken are the latest contributions, this one is of course a negative textbook.

Regarding country Au, the most famous joke is that it spends 200 billion military expenditures every year to ensure that its trade routes with country C are not attacked by country C.

A country with a population of 20 to 30 million, grabs the world's most populous country, the strongest industrial power, and the country that ranks first in trade with itself to bite it every day. What is it not a mad dog? Real dogs dare not do such a thing.

This country, which is arguing about immigration matters with the small island nations of the large and central oceans, suddenly finds that there is a monster at home.

Where did they land from? I don’t know. There are too many no man’s land in Au.

I don’t know when I went ashore. The reason is the same as above.

Whether anyone died on the road, I don’t know.

In short, when the monster rushed into a small town or village on the edge of the desert, the entire Au country was covered.

This country includes civilian service and reserve service. The entire military system has less than 100,000 people, and more than 60% of the military personnel are in service. Many of them also follow Country A to bite people around the world, and some are stationed on offshore islands.

There are tens of thousands of people spreading over an area of ​​more than 7 million square kilometers, so we must first think about how to gather troops!

In addition, the country of Au is a large island country. The main purpose of tank equipment is to cooperate with country A~www.wuxiaspot.com~. Most of the remaining in the country are armored vehicles. Only the air force can be used as the main force, and a small number of tanks are responsible for finishing.

Mobilize the people? Of course the people ran away first.

But wait for all of this. The prime minister is on vacation on the outer islands, waiting for his old man to come back to talk about monsters.

When the president returned two days later, the monster was no longer found!

It's all because the population density in the area where the incident occurred is too small, and there is not even a witness to the police... In fact, it is not that no one calls the police. It is just that the population density is not enough in an environment controlled by money. Of course, there is no company to lay the signal base station.

The military's manpower and material resources are insufficient, and it is impossible to conduct a carpet search.

No way, wait for the monster to appear in the public's field of vision next time.

Some people hope that the monster will die in the desert, some people hope to solve it quickly, and some people just leave it alone and emigrate.

As the saying goes, misfortunes never come singly. The monsters in the inland desert areas have not been resolved. The fear that only existed in the heart before, the little monsters appeared.
