Chapter 316 Looking for repair

The chrysanthemum appears from the wormhole below the Pacific Ocean and can reach the coast anywhere within one day, making all coastal cities no longer safe, which has also forced many countries to migrate their industries from the coast to the inland.

With this alone, the losses, costs and funds caused by the entire industrial migration must be calculated in trillions of dollars. Even in peacetime, many countries will be damaged, not to mention that at the same time, it also needs to start a war with the chrysanthemum beast.

While enduring these losses, countries have invested a lot of resources in PPDC. The results so far are the product of the joint efforts of member states to invest at any cost.

However, after almost five years, the adjustment of the economic field has caused the mecha hunters to appear like dumplings, which has also caused the member states to fight a world war.

It’s like every two world wars caused several countries at the core of the war to suffer five labors and seven injuries. Now, even if the member states are not at that level, they are not much different.

The domestic economies of various member countries are in sluggish. As far as Locke knows, the unemployment rate continues to rise, more and more people are not satisfied, and more and more people are dissatisfied. Now, the domestic situation in many countries is not very good.

To put it simply, all countries are frightened by huge investment, especially now that chrysanthemums appear more and more frequently. Every time they mobilize mecha hunters, it represents huge investment and possible losses.

In other words, most of the people in power who had previously invested heavily in the Hunter Program were scared even if they wanted to invest as much as before, for fear that if this continued, they would be kicked off the stage.

At the same time, the existing mecha technology can already deal with the current strength of the chrysanthemum beast. Without the appearance of the stronger chrysanthemum beast, there is no need to invest at any cost like before.

Because of this, just recently, the so-called walled faction has quietly emerged. Although this plan is extremely ridiculous to those who are discerning in their eyes, it has received some support from some parties who have suffered the interests of the Mecha Hunter Plan.

It’s like in the United States, the industrial chain related to Mecha Hunter was intervened by the Li Group, and even used these emerging technologies to create many supporting factories, and the money was not less than earned.

For high-end projects like Hunter Program, companies without some scientific research strength should not think about it. The profits are high and the threshold is also extremely high. Ordinary people and enterprises in many member countries cannot obtain benefits from the Mecha Hunter Program. Instead, a large number of companies suffer huge losses due to economic turmoil.

At this time, the frustrated people who were unable to intervene, and the relevant parties whose interests were damaged in the economic turmoil began to support the construction of the wall.

The investment in building walls is actually not much less than that in continuing to build mecha hunters, but the technical content is low, and many companies and individuals can participate in getting a share. Such a large project also requires hiring a large number of people, which has a great effect on solving the unemployment rate.

At the same time, in order to fool the people, it is simple. Some people in power and scientists with financial backers have come forward to say that the wall can block monsters below level 4, and we can live a safe and happy life within the wall.

People blindly follow, especially when life is about to be unable to survive, they are very likely to be incited. At this time, they no longer have much rationality and are just fantasizing about living their previous life.

The walled faction has not yet completely gained the upper hand, but it is developing extremely rapidly. At the same time, countries have begun to reduce their financial support for PPDC.

These walled factions have joined forces. If we simply talk about their influence on the US government, these relevant parties have combined to surpass the Lee Group and his allies.

Under such circumstances, it is unrealistic to push hard. Locke was prepared for this. He took advantage of this trend and negotiated with the other party and started his own plan, intending to rely on the Li Group itself to continue to promote the Mecha Hunter Project.

Of course, this requires huge investment. Focusing on the core industry of Mecha Hunter, there are many teams that rely on this project and have clear division of labor. The capital costs, technical strength, labor costs, supporting factories, and industrial strength required are all affordable by several major countries.

The Li Group also has advantages in this regard. In the past few years, the Li Group has been the absolute leader in the Mecha Hunter Project in the United States and has supported factories in all aspects. In fact, the US government has helped to invest and build, and the Li Group has even earned a huge amount of funds.

Once the future walls will take shape, these factory projects will have no orders and will have to be done by themselves. However, after Locke has decided that the Li Group will build its own mecha hunter, and naturally these factories will be used.

In the past five years, under the command of Locke, the Li Group participated in the Mecha Hunter Program. Only with the money earned in recent years can the Li Group have money to invest in building its own base and prepare to develop its own Hunter Mecha.

Of course, it is not enough to make money just by relying on the previous industry of Mecha Hunter, because the consumption is too great, and it won’t take long before the Li Group will be completely destroyed due to the exhaustion of funds.

In addition to the traditional military industry, the Li Group has also opened up a new track.

For example, we have joined the health care industry and developed a deleted version of the gene optimization liquid. The genuine gene optimization liquid only needs to be used for one year in succession to permanently cure and extend lifespan and improve physical fitness.

The deleteable version of the gene optimization solution requires injection every week, and must be used continuously for at least ten years to ensure permanent curing effect.

At the same time, the price it sells to the outside is simply unaffordable for ordinary middle-class people, and only those rich rich people can afford it.

In addition, there are special drugs for treating cancer, AIDS and other terminal illnesses. Seeing the cost of these drugs and comparing the selling price, even the most greedy people will think that they are grabbing money.

Also, with a simple artificial intelligence mobile phone, you can easily help individuals manage all trivial matters, arrange everything in an orderly manner, and complete tedious tasks such as simple file processing.

There are also higher-end robot housekeepers, just like robots in "Public Enemy of Machinery". Not only are there robots that can be nannies, but also special engineering robots, which are easy to complete engineering work with high risk.

In this way, even if the walled school is successful, it will inevitably end up working for Locke. If you work hard, you will only make a hard money, and the real big head will naturally fall into Locke's hands.

In short, in recent years, under Locke's arrangement, the Li Group has done a lot of money-making businesses, so it can have enough confidence to support its future investment in the Mecha Hunter Project.

After all, the United States cannot count on it for a short time. It is too difficult to rely solely on a group company to support the Mecha Hunter project, and Locke has to try his best to find a way to make up for it.

Moreover, this is just to use existing resources to further develop. Hunter mechas are not prepared to build too many, otherwise they will not be able to afford them.

R&D investment, mecha maintenance, labor costs, mecha maintenance, and new generation construction, each item is a massive expenditure that makes people dizzy, and dozens of member states of the eight bases of PPDC are almost unable to afford it.

The Li Group really used a large number of engineering robots, with extremely high automatic rates in bases and various industries. In addition, it controlled the entire industrial chain and was mature in its technology, so it was planned to build three or four main fighter mechas in the next few years. More of them were really raised and died.

In the second movie, why Shaw Brothers has the resources to continue to make mechs? Fundamentally speaking, the system of China is different and he is willing to use the power of the country to support this development.

Even so, even if the Li Group is about the same level, it is impossible to support the entire PPDC alone.
