I collect gold fingers in the heavens

Chapter 460 Questioning Session 1
Wu Siyuan entered the questioning session without saying a few words.

Backstage staff will [randomly] extract media accounts from the live broadcast room.

This is of course demanding.

The first one to be drawn was CCTV reporter Yang Xiaobing.

Yang Xiaobing is also an old acquaintance.

Her voice sounded in the live broadcast room, with a bit of excitement in her tone, she said, "Wu Dong, hello, I am Xiaobing from CCTV. We just noticed that [Chaoqun Group] will be launched in one year 5000 billion yuan is being invested in scientific research, so I would like to ask, which fields [Chaoqun Group] intends to invest in?”

"Goddess!" Some Yang Xiaobing shouted in front of the screen.

Of course, Yang Xiaobing couldn't hear it. Like all the audience in the live broadcast room, she was watching the world's richest man who was too young.

The corner of his mouth raised slightly, and he said, "[Super Group]'s plan is to invest in the future, and will focus on [quantum computing], [machine learning], [basic algorithms], [network security], [visual computing] , [Natural Language Processing], [Next Generation Human-Computer Interaction], [Chip Technology], [Sensor Technology], [Embedded System], [Virtual Imaging], [Anti-Gravity Technology], [Aviation Technology], [Gene Editing] Technology] and [Biomedicine] cover artificial intelligence, aerospace development, Internet of Things, smart cities and other industrial fields. Of course, we will not be stingy in investing in basic science. Any science and technology that we think is beneficial to future development areas, we will invest.”

Wu Siyuan talked too much, even if there were real-time subtitles in the live broadcast room, Yang Xiaobing was still confused by all kinds of high-end proper nouns.

But it doesn't matter, during the live broadcast, it is already recording and broadcasting.Watch it a few times and you'll figure it out.

Yang Xiaobing's account dimmed.

Another media account was pulled out.

"Wu Dong, hello, I'm Gu Yan, a reporter from People's Daily. It's a great honor to have this opportunity to ask questions. What I want to ask is, if [Chaoqun Group] chooses to invest in these cutting-edge technologies, what kind of investment method will it use?" Going out? Should [Chaoqun Group] build its own laboratory, or cooperate with the outside world?"

This is a male reporter with a thick voice and a mandarin standard enough to get an A.

Wu Siyuan is also confident about this issue, after all, after he made this decision, the Strategic Development Center of [Chaoqun Group] made multiple detailed plans for this decision.

Wu Siyuan pondered for a while, and then said, "The power of a group company is limited. This self-knowledge, [Super Group] still has it. We will establish a national laboratory belonging to [Super Group], and establish alliances with universities and scientific research units." The research institute provides research and development funds, purchases professional equipment, designates research directions and other support, and jointly develops these cutting-edge technologies for mankind. After this conference, we will launch an independent webpage on the official website. Interested people can follow their own capabilities , choose research topics or self-built topics, apply for scientific research funds, our group will have specialized personnel to review, and after the review is passed, there will be specialized personnel to connect."

There are many scientific research dogs watching this live broadcast room.

Hearing Wu Siyuan's words, his eyes lit up, and there was only one thought in his mind, "The scientific research community has finally ushered in a big dog."

Because in China, research funding has always been very tight.

In fact, Huaguo's investment in scientific research has increased year by year.

In 2019, the country invested a total of 22143.6 billion yuan in research and experimental development, an increase of 2465.7 billion yuan or 12.5% ​​over the previous year; the investment intensity of research and experimental development was 2.23%, an increase of 0.09 percentage points over the previous year.

The per capita expenditure calculated based on the full-time workload of research and experimental development personnel was 46.1 yuan, an increase of 1.2 yuan over the previous year.

分活动类型看，全国基础研究经费1335.6亿元，比上年增长22.5%；应用研究经费2498.5亿元，增长14.0%；试验发展经费18309.5亿元，增长11.7%。基础研究、应用研究和试验发展经费所占比重分别为6.0%、11.3%和82.7%。

分活动主体看，各类企业研究与试验发展经费支出16921.8亿元，比上年增长11.1%；政府属研究机构经费支出3080.8亿元，增长14.5%；高等学校经费支出1796.6亿元，增长23.2%。企业、政府属研究机构、高等学校经费支出所占比重分别为76.4%、13.9%和8.1%。

The country's investment in scientific research has increased, and logically speaking, research funds should also become much more abundant.

But in fact, only a few strong experts and scholars have sufficient funds, but more scientific research dogs have been stretched in this regard.

Take basic researchers as an example.

Basic researchers generally face the problems of insufficient scientific research funds and lack of stable guarantees.

According to the 2020 survey on the time utilization of scientific and technological workers, 25.6% of basic researchers said that the funds for scientific research activities were "not enough", 20.6% said that the funds were "very tight", and 11.3% said "not at all".

Insufficient funding for basic research affects researchers' continuous tracking of specific research directions and sufficient investment in research energy. According to the 2019 basic research talent team survey, 83.5% of basic researchers said that "it is difficult to obtain scientific research funding", 74.9% said that "due to the lack of stable funding support, it is difficult to focus on the research direction", and 49.3% said that "due to the lack of stable funding support , had to spend a lot of time and energy applying for funding.”

[Chaoqun Group] This 5000 billion scientific research investment plan is tantamount to a boon for the majority of scientific research dogs.

At the very least, there is one more channel to apply for funding!
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… ……

The male reporter's account dimmed, Wu Siyuan signaled to the backstage, and another media account was extracted.

This time it was a woman who was drawn.

Listening to the voice is a middle-aged woman.

"Chairman Wu, hello! I noticed that you said that [Chaoqun Group]'s profit this year reached 3000 billion yuan. An excellent company must have a corresponding sense of social responsibility."

Wu Siyuan frowned slightly, this is moral high hat, moral kidnapping!

The middle-aged woman was still talking, "Then, what I want to ask is, besides investing in scientific research, does [Chaoqun Group] plan to invest in charity?"

"Of course! [Chaoqun Group] invests a lot in charity every year. We don't follow celebrities' fraudulent donations. Of course, we believe that this is the responsibility of a successful company, and we have never publicized it. But... take the liberty May I ask, which social unit do you belong to?" Wu Siyuan said.

"Oh, Chairman Wu, I'm from ZGHSZH. Our Cross Society needs..."

Before the middle-aged woman finished speaking, she saw Wu Siyuan in the live broadcast room and said expressionlessly, "Oh, next..."

(Thanks to byouk for the reward.)
