Chapter 988 Strike first to gain the upper hand!
That afternoon.
Accompanied by his family, Bashir left the hospital by car and arrived at Moscow International Airport. He boarded Yang Ming's private plane and flew directly from Moscow to Xiangjiang.
At this time, a large private hospital in Hong Kong was ready at Kai Tak Airport.
All this is very shocking news to Moscow and even Sulian.
Why did the chairman of the Imperial Group help a strange old man Su Lian like that?
No one understands.
However, Brooke and Yuri Rogachev may have guessed something.
Even then, in the eyes of the two of them, they were happy for their old friend Bashir. Without Sir Yang's help, Bashir might have died in the hospital without anyone knowing.
Now because of Sir Yang's help, Bashir will probably survive.
Yang Ming looked out the window at the villa.
Huo Jianning reported the matter in detail to Yang Ming from behind.
At that time, Huo Jianning and Gore mentioned that they wanted to send a Sulian patient to Xiangjiang for treatment. Gore thought what kind of person Bashir was. Unexpectedly, after investigation, he found that he was just a retired farm man.
Gore agreed directly.
"Jian Ning, he is a talent and deserves our attention. Even though he is older at this time, he is still very meaningful to us."
Talent is very, very important.
At the beginning of the 20th century, the highland of world science and technology was not in the Americas but in Europe. The leader was undoubtedly country D at that time.
With the achievements of the early industrial revolution, country D not only became a powerful country in the world's technological development at that time, but also had a very strong development momentum.
However, technology sometimes produces unexpected "reactions", which was particularly evident in country D before World War II.
The technological level of Country D has also directly driven the development of the military industry, but it has also greatly stimulated Country D's ambitions for military expansion.
The reason why country D was able to "sweep" most of Europe during World War II was that technological factors played a crucial role.
At that time, country D's Gustav train gun, Go-229 bomber and V9 series of long-range missiles were the most advanced military products at the time. They greatly helped country D gain strategic advantages during World War II.
If Einstein hadn't taken his family to Country M in 1933, Country D would most likely have become the first country in the world to produce round bullets.
Regarding the technological level of country D, from the list of Nobel Prize winners in 1938, nearly 60% of the awards were won by people from country D.
From the current point of view, the technological level and strength of country D at that time was equivalent to the technology of country M today.
At that time, both Country M and Soviet Union coveted these top scientific and technological talents from Country D. In 1944, before the end of World War II, Country M formulated a plan to "rob people" called "Operation Paperclip."
Country M has also compiled a list of 1500 people. Among them, von Braun, the father of Country D's missiles, is undoubtedly the person that Country M wants to acquire most.
Von Braun once designed the famous V-2 rocket for country D. This rocket was also the first ballistic missile put into actual combat use in the world.
In May 1945, the 5th Infantry Division of the M Army found von Braun and his design team in Bavaria.
It is said that when M country soldiers appeared in front of him, von Braun said: "You found me just to get this technology (V-2 rocket)?"
The people of Country M were not polite and took him and his design team back to Country M.
Although Country M only found 700 people on the "Project Paperclip" list, these scientists did play a great role in promoting the development of Country M's science and technology.
As far as von Braun is concerned, he joined NASA soon after arriving in the M country. The Saturn 5 launch vehicle he presided over and designed played an important role in the first human landing on the moon. He also became a key figure in the aerospace industry in the twentieth century. One of the pioneers.
Historically, when the Soviet Union disintegrated, the "behemoth" that competed with Country M collapsed.
But even so, the large number of talents accumulated by Soviet Union during its glory days and during the space and arms race with Country M are still distributed in 15 countries.
These human resources should be an indispensable and important driving force for the development of their respective countries, but many people cannot even guarantee their basic livelihood.
Among them are engineers, scientists, artists, etc. These people who enjoyed high social status and generous income during the Soviet Union period, some had to make ends meet by selling goods.
When knowledge is not respected and due dignity is not guaranteed, countries such as Europe and the United States begin to extend an olive branch to them, and many people choose to leave their country.
As early as the 20s, Sulian had its first wave of immigrants.
According to relevant data records, from 1987 to 1991, nearly 80 Soviet people immigrated to Country M, of which as many as 700 were famous scientists, and other senior talents accounted for nearly 20%.
Someone has calculated that in the 20s, the cost of training an engineer in Europe and the United States alone was US$90 million, while a scientist needed US$300 million.
This set of data may not be accurate, but it can also illustrate the difficulty and high cost of cultivating talents, especially high-end talents.
From 1991 to 1995, nearly 80 former Soviet people immigrated to Country M.
In this second wave of immigration, for countries such as Russia and Russia, it is also losing not only talents in various fields but also the huge funds invested in cultivating talents.
After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the economies of the CIS countries suffered a severe recession. This also gave the developed countries, led by Country M, an "opportunity" to absorb the talents of the former Soviet Union at a very low cost.
At that time, recruiting an engineer from the CIS only required a monthly salary of several thousand dollars.
The "bad consequences" brought about by brain drain may not be obvious in the short term, but the "results" are easily visible.
At this time, it was already 1985.
After Al Gore came to power.
Yang Ming has noticed that all aspects of Su Lian have begun to decline.
Before Europe and the United States started eyeing Su Lian's group of talents, this was the best opportunity for the Imperial Group to take action.
At this time, for Yang Ming, he needed these talents so much.
There are now more than five million people in Hong Kong, but there are really not many scientific and technological talents. Moreover, many of the talents in Hong Kong are mainly related to finance.
If Yang Ming hadn't been bringing in semiconductor talents over the years, Xiangjiang would be almost a talent desert in this area.
On the contrary, Yang Ming’s three colleges and universities.
Including Eastern University, Eastern University of Science and Technology, Xiangjiang University of Science and Technology, in addition to Yang Ming's Xiangjiang Science and Technology City in Xiangjiang, which could accommodate millions of people according to Yang Ming's plan. In other words, these It is precisely the places that need talents the most.
Before Europe and the United States focused on those Soviet Union or even Eastern European talents, Yang Ming knew that it was most beneficial to strike first.
If the Soviet Union disintegrates, it will be difficult for Xiangjiang or the Imperial Group to absorb those Soviet Union talents.
There is another difference.
The reason is that these are all Soviet talents, except for some Jewish talents, who yearn for Europe and the United States.
In fact, these people may prefer countries like Sulian.
Historically, it was just like that, the country also divided a piece of the pie and absorbed a very small portion of talents. The main reason was that at that time, the country did not have much strength and funds to eat up these Soviet talents.
It's different for Yang Ming.
What he has now is money, what he lacks is talent.
If these talents all flowed into Xiangjiang, bringing advanced science and technology, or under the guidance of Yang Ming, they studied certain aspects of technology.
Even entering the country is enough to change the future technology of Hong Kong and even the country.
