Technology: Breaking the Global Monopoly

Chapter 2043 Adding Money

If it weren't for the fact that they didn't need to relearn the characters, many of them would have directly asked their former "teachers" for a refund and even taken them to court!

mid-October.

The top 100 players of the "Omnic Crisis" global ladder tournament arrived in Daxia. After undergoing numerous audits and physical examinations, 63 of them finally passed the final test and obtained official places in the Global Martial Arts Conference.

The construction of overseas venues is also on the right track, and investment promotion departments, enterprises and institutions in major countries and regions have tried their best.

As the most developed capitalist country in the world, the United States has been actively attracting foreign investment and seeking many outstanding talents to join this corporate country since the major battles of the last century. These capitals and talents have played a great role in promoting the scientific, military, cultural and social development of the United States.

Especially after implementing the "new federalism" strategy, the responsibility for economic development was transferred from the national level to the states and even cities. Each state and city has to seek a way to survive, support themselves, and protect themselves.

In such an environment and background, officials in various states and cities in the United States have always been accustomed to forming small circles and then trying to find various ways to develop the local economy and attract foreign direct investment.

This time, for the "Mecha Training Center" that Jiuzhou Technology did not restrict and the competition venue project for the "Omnic Crisis" Global Martial Arts Tournament, fierce competition broke out between states and cities in the United States.

Although not many media dare to directly report these "competitive tactics", among insiders, many people call the current competition between state and city officials a "crazy scramble."

Contrary to what many Western netizens think, many states and cities in the United States do not have aversion to Jiuzhou Technology's projects, but instead show great enthusiasm from top to bottom.

In order to compete for a small project of this Eastern giant, they proposed various incentive plans. For example, Kentucky was willing to provide $50 billion in unlimited free subsidies just to get the Jiuzhou Technology Overseas Mecha Training Center project to be implemented within the state.

California, which is located in the southwestern United States and is home to former top technology companies such as Apple, Oracle, and HP, and whose economic output accounts for 14% of the U.S. economy, has sent a special team to the city of Rongcheng to seek to sign a memorandum of cooperation with Jiuzhou Technology.

The Rongcheng Municipal Bureau also learned about this situation through the proactive communication of Jiuzhou Technology.

Because it is a global strategic project of Jiuzhou Technology and a project that must be promoted overseas, the Rongcheng Municipal Bureau did not hesitate to agree.

“The European Commission has listed your company as a ‘high-risk’ enterprise and even urged other European companies and markets not to purchase and use your company’s products and services.

  But in fact, the major European markets are already highly dependent on your company's technology and equipment. According to the information I have learned, the Netherlands, Austria, Germany and Britain are more than 80% dependent on your company's professional equipment and industrial products produced using your company's technology!

Obviously, the European market is still not very friendly to your company.

But it's different in California. Of course, ten years ago, there were some misunderstandings between California and your company, but that was because there were too many companies and institutions in the same industry as your company in our territory, and they hoped that we could help suppress your company's development.

We have to do this to protect our local businesses and institutions and to enable them to continue to grow. I believe you understand. ”

A California congressman, dressed in a well-made suit, looked like an aristocrat as he spoke to the overseas project managers of the Jiuzhou Technology Business Cooperation Department.

Of course, he hoped that the person sitting in front of him was Gu Qing, the founder of Jiuzhou Technology, but unfortunately, Mr. Gu was still busy at the experimental base and had no time to deal with these matters.

Of course, the congressman thought in his heart that Gu Qing must be deliberately ignoring them in order to gain more benefits.

Zhou Taoxiu looked at the middle-aged man with golden hair in front of him, stretched out his right hand and gently pushed the frame of his glasses.

As for this "traditional elite" who was born in the United States, grew up in Britain, and studied at Yale University, he could only smile and responded, "The global market is huge, and billions of people should have many different voices. We at Jiuzhou Technology have always been committed to promoting mutual understanding among global users and eliminating barriers as much as possible."

Zhou Taoxiu did not say much about some of the restrictions he had encountered and is still experiencing.

After all, his own company still does not attach importance to the entire American market. If it were not for the instructions from his supervisor, he would not even want to control his facial expression.

  Seeing this, the congressman immediately changed the subject and took the initiative to say, "You may not know that the climate in California is Mediterranean, with the lowest temperature in all seasons not lower than 10°C and the highest temperature not higher than 30°C.

It is precisely because of the livable climate that our Silicon Valley can attract elites from major global companies to live here. If your company's project considers California, we are willing to provide the most livable land for the project and cooperate with major universities and institutions to deliver professional talents to your company's project.

In addition, we are also willing to provide financial subsidies for your company's projects. In addition to US$5 billion in cash, we are also willing to provide a tax exemption period of more than three years and tax reduction support of about ten years.

Of course, these are not finalized, and the support projects are not limited to these two items. We can still discuss them in detail. "

After hearing these "baits", Zhou Taoxiu's smiling expression did not change.

He performed standard movements like a robot, nodded, and responded: "It is indeed a very generous treatment, but the mecha training center project and the overseas venue project of the "Omnic Crisis" Global Martial Arts Tournament are both important scientific research and business projects of our Jiuzhou Technology.

We need to have a comprehensive and detailed understanding of overseas partners, and comprehensively compare the resource advantages of all parties to select the best partners..."

When the congressman heard this, it was as if there was an automatic translator in his mind that translated and summarized it into two words - "add money."
