As a mage, I just want to pursue the truth

Chapter 382: One word comes true

China's leading position in infrastructure cannot be explained by simple reasons.

It also includes the extensive experience China has accumulated in the process of urbanization and the complete industrial chain surrounding infrastructure.

The combination of these three has formed China's strong infrastructure capabilities.

This solid iron triangle has also begun to loosen its most important corner as young people are reluctant to go to construction sites and the development of productivity has given them more choices.

Both American and Neon came from the infrastructure era, and as labor costs increased, their infrastructure capabilities rapidly deteriorated.

Therefore, the advantages you think are unbreakable actually change very quickly with the times.

However, in 2031, China is still the country with the strongest infrastructure capabilities on the entire blue planet.

They are determined to win the city-building project in Lion City.

“Not necessarily, there are still good designers in China.

Have you read the requirements raised by Lion City?

To make extensive use of natural elements, it is necessary to combine architecture and forests.

Domestic designers also have opportunities.

However, if you are looking for investment purposes, you may want to know which companies can become the construction service providers of Lion City Science City.

Then I think you might as well take a look at companies in the road and bridge field.

Science City needs to be connected to Lion City, which will require a large amount of bridge and road construction.

You might as well consider entering this field, as I feel the options in this field are more limited. "

There is no TV on the wall facing the sofa in Li Miaomiao's living room, but a painting by a cutting-edge painter.

The painting showed surging waves. Li Shuyao stared at the painting and whispered, "I have thought about starting from this section.

But in fact, the competition in the road and bridge field is more intense.

The listed companies in the construction field that have the ability to build a city are China Construction, China Railway Construction, China Communications Construction, etc., companies with the word "Hua" in their names.

But there are many more Chinese companies involved in road construction.

Local road and bridge companies can undertake projects of this level.

Therefore, screening is the most difficult.

I have bought a small amount of China Communications Construction and China Railway Construction.

I feel like there are other investors entering the market besides me these days.”

Lion City is building a new city, which means more than just revenue and profits for those in the construction industry.

It is also a major benefit for financial practitioners.

Infrastructure has been a sunset industry in China for ten years, mainly used to boost GDP growth. And as infrastructure gradually improves, the effectiveness of infrastructure in boosting GDP is gradually decreasing.

Previously, investing one dollar in infrastructure could bring about a GDP growth of five or eight dollars, but now investing one dollar can only bring about a GDP growth of 0.5 yuan.

During these twenty years, the industry with the highest overall return rate was semiconductors.

This is even more true for China. If it wants to cross the middle-income trap, it cannot rely on infrastructure, but can only rely on high-tech industries such as semiconductors.

Therefore, even in 2031, when virtual reality technology has been realized and biological computers have shown great potential, China has not given up its investment in the semiconductor field.

Financial practitioners are paying attention to the opportunities brought by infrastructure, while scientific researchers are paying attention to what conditions Merlin will offer to attract individuals after the science city is completed.

In the planning of the Science City, scientific research talents are undoubtedly the most important.

However, Science City has not started recruiting yet and no specific conditions have been released.

Life is always full of unknowns. It is difficult to know what kind of person you will become in the future. Most of the dreams you had when you were young are just dreams.

Walking in the Apple building, holding the latest Apple equipment in his hands, Luo Shu often thought about why he chose astronomy when he filled out his college entrance examination application.

Probably because of my yearning for the universe when I was young.

Although there were many ups and downs later, I had looked up at the stars in the mountains of Mauna Kea, stayed in the secret base of the FBI in New York, and explored the secrets of the universe in the building of Apple's headquarters.

There were many twists and turns and accidents along the way, but in the end Luo Shu seemed to have done what he wanted most, which was to explore the universe.

An Italian astronaut once tweeted this from the International Space Station:
"Looking up at the vastness of the universe and looking down at the abundance of species, one can indulge in the sight and the sounds of life, which is truly a joy."

The caption of the tweet was "Observing the blue star in the universe."

With the help of Apple's astronomical equipment, the astronomical phenomena that Luo Shu can observe are not much worse than those of the National Observatory in America.

He changed his nationality from China to America in probably his second year working at Apple.

Luo Shu is now a senior researcher at Apple's internal space exploration project.

Of course, from the moment he received the space signal from deep space, Luo Shu lost the opportunity to return to China.

Later he found out that if he didn't join Apple and engage in magic coin mining, he could return to China after being controlled by America for a year or two.

Some of Luo Shu’s astronomy classmates from other schools returned home safely.

"Hey, Luo, you look so unhappy."

His direct supervisor, Bob Hines, was actually smiling happily.

Bob was once an astronaut on the International Space Station and was later poached by Apple.

Luo Shu and Bob have the same internal job grade assessment, but because Luo Shu is Chinese, he cannot hold a management position internally.

It is only because of the sensitivity of the astronomical exploration project that Luo Shu's position is the ceiling of what a Chinese can achieve.

In the consumer electronics business, there are still many Chinese who have reached management levels.

To be able to work as a senior researcher in such a sensitive field, Luo Shu must be considered first-rate in both professional ability and mental savvy.

"Nothing. I didn't get the real future last weekend. The stock released by Kechuang Biotechnology is too small."

Ke Chuang Bio's future virtual reality equipment is called "real future" abroad.

The frequency of panic buying abroad is no less than that in China.

Especially since everyone knows that Future bought through zero-yuan purchase cannot be logged in, and only Future purchased through official channels can be used.

Now the wind has changed. America's army of zero-dollar buyers are no longer scrambling for the future. Instead, they are going to major consumer electronics brands to grab brain-computer-connected VR.

After all, only brain-computer connection VR can record brain nerve signals and thus seize the future.

“Hahaha I got it, but the problem is it’s useless even if I got it.

We can't bring the future here to use.

Moreover, it is impossible to build a biological communication network in this area in a short period of time."

Apple's astronomy exploration base is located in a remote town in Texas.

It's not a big city, so it's unknown how long it will take for the biological communication network to take over.

And given the sensitivity of the base, Apple will not allow a biological communication network to be built there.

Does anyone know whether Kechuang Bio's biological communication network has the ability to collect information?

America has always been wary of Hua Wei, largely because they themselves did just that.

Taking advantage of the communications equipment industry, they steal secrets around the world. After doing this myself, I realized how easy it is for communications equipment manufacturers to steal secrets.

Not to mention biological communication, which is a completely black box technology. If the data is stolen, you will not be able to extract it as evidence.

Apple's astronomical exploration base was ostensibly built independently by Apple, but Luo Shu could guess from the temperament of his colleagues that it was not that simple.

“Maybe you can take this opportunity to work in another group.

For example, the Virtual World Exploration Group.

Didn't they recruit people on the intranet not long ago?" Luo Shu reminded.

After seeing the information about the virtual world of Ke Chuang Biology, Luo Shu judged that the magic world must be closely related to magic.

At the same time, he also hopes to use virtual reality as an opportunity to get out of this hellhole.

After staying in a small town for so many years, even though I can go to big cities like Austin or Los Angeles during long vacations, these places are just tourist stops.

What’s more important is that I haven’t been back to China for many years and haven’t seen my parents.

Luo Shu hopes to escape from this cage with the help of magic.

There is no way to escape the joint blockade of Apple and the FBI on your own.

As the output of magic coins increases year by year, its importance in the country is also decreasing.

Before, China might be willing to spend a lot of effort to get him back, but now China can only provide some handy help at most.

Firstly, Luo Shu didn't like the feeling of being controlled, and secondly, he didn't want to be controlled in this small town even after his parents died.

Apple's own research on magic has achieved some interim results, and Luo Shu has also obtained some information through various means.

The means of modifying pheromones through magic alone was enough to help him leave America.

However, even if he could leave America, Luo Shu did not plan to return to his country with his real identity.

First go to Mexico, then package a fake identity in Mexico and return to China.

This is the route set by Luo Shu.

Because once you go back with your real identity, it would be just like jumping from one cage to another.

There is no fundamental difference other than being able to see your parents.

Luo Shu has only two wishes: to learn magic and to live a normal life.

After experiencing countless twists and turns along the way, it is natural to yearn for an ordinary life.

Of course, the ordinary here refers to the ordinariness of having enough food and clothing and no pressure of survival, which is different from the ordinariness of struggling to survive with the daily necessities of life.

“I have thought about it, and my experience advantage has always been in the field of astronomy.

I am completely unfamiliar with exploring the virtual world.

And I heard that we purchased real future colleagues internally, but they didn't go to work for Apple, but for the FBI.

On the surface, Apple is paying them, but in reality, the entire project team is managed by the FBI." Bob lowered his voice in the latter part.

He lowered his voice and looked around to rule out the possibility that there were people around.

Bob and Luo Shu have been working together for more than five years, and Luo Shu has never expressed dissatisfaction with the status quo on any occasion.

Plus, Bob previously worked on the International Space Station, and you know, there are more than just Americans on the International Space Station.

Even after America and European countries broke up over their cooperation in the space field, astronauts from other countries can still be seen on the International Space Station.

Therefore, Bob will not be extra vigilant against Chinese people.

The information he revealed to Luo Shu was very important. The fact that the FBI was involved was enough to prove that the virtual world was unusual.

"You come here to do data analysis and astronomical observations, don't you have no experience either?
To be honest, I don’t think there is any overlap between your experience as an astronaut and astronomical exploration and data analysis.” Luo Shu complained.

Bob quickly explained: "No, no, no, before I became an astronaut, I got a doctorate in astronomy and thermodynamics from the University of Houston.

Thermodynamics requires just as much mathematics and statistics as astronomy.”

Some American astronauts first worked in other jobs, then studied for a doctorate in astronomy, and then joined NASA as astronauts.

Luo Shu: “Is world exploration highly relevant to your major?
Besides, your PhD has little to do with large-scale analysis and optical pulse observation.

I watched the introductory videos on YouTube, and many people wanted to figure out whether the planets in the virtual world also exist in the real world.

If so, then is the planet in the real world the same as the one in the virtual world?

You have to think of it this way, light only proves that the planets in the virtual world exist in the starry sky of the real world.

Does it mean that a planet with intelligent life has been discovered?

It could also be two.

These are two magic coins.

With day-to-day astronomical observations, it may take one or two years, if you are lucky, to find a planet with intelligent life.

We also have to worry about whether the magic coin associated with it has been mined by other organizations."

After listening to Luo Shu's long speech, Bob nodded frequently: "What you said makes sense.

But I have to try using VR equipment and explore the virtual world before I can make a decision.”

There is no biological communication network around, nor is there a flagship store of Ke Chuang Biotechnology.

Even if Bob ordered the virtual reality device, he could only go to Austin to pick it up.

But Austin also has no biological communication network.

"Where are you going to pick up the goods?" Luo Shu asked.

Bob thought for a moment and then replied, “I guess I’ll take a leave of absence next week and go to Los Angeles.

If our observations hadn't reached a critical time point this week, I would have gone this week.

My mind has flown to the virtual world."

Since California is the headquarters of Apple, Apple employees prefer to go to California rather than New York.

The reason why Luo Shu has been encouraging Bob to work in the virtual world exploration department is to find someone familiar to explore the way first.

The information is important. Bob is not so tight-lipped, especially in front of people he knows well.

"it is good."

"You'll have to keep an eye on our big guy next week while I'm gone.

Tell me immediately if there is any abnormality in the observation data."

"OK.

Also, Bob, let me remind you that maybe it’s not up to you to decide whether or not to go to the virtual world exploration agency.

Maybe after you went to Los Angeles, you were transferred to a new department with a transfer order."

Bob, who boasted of being a meritorious astronaut, quickly shook his head and said, "They will respect my wishes. They must respect my wishes."
