Chapter 660

The Japanese have basically formulated guidelines and policies, and Americans far across the ocean will not be idle. Black cloud town shocked them too much. Even if it is stronger than the United States, no enterprise can have such strength. Now, if you want to fight against the black cloud group, you can only unite. Although you flaunt the freedom of operation and market, it is inside. Now there are strong enemies outside. We must combine national resources. Otherwise, how can we fight the black cloud group.

Olamp appeared at the meeting as President Reagan's special envoy. Many American science and technology enterprises came to participate this time. To be able to speak is nothing more than general dynamics, Boeing, Motorola, IBM, Intel, Texas Instruments and other enterprises. Of course, now apple and Microsoft also have some say, but they can't play a leading role.

In addition, MIT, Stanford, Caltech, the University of California, Harvard and other well-known universities have also sent representatives. In this regard, we can see that the details of American colleges and universities are indeed too powerful. Any university here is among the top 50 in the world, but many well-known universities don't even have the right to speak. I can't imagine it.

Opran said, "you are all leaders in the field of science, technology and industry in the United States. I believe you know everything about black cloud town. The White House attaches great importance to this matter. The president means whether we can build a technology town in the United States. Of course, we have to admit that the strength of black cloud group is stronger than any domestic enterprise. Now, only by uniting and cooperating with you and not learning from your family can we break the deadlock. "

The science and technology of the United States has always been in the forefront of the world. Many advanced technologies used by mankind today originate from the United States. After years of accumulation and the implementation of many plans and reforms, the scientific and technological level of the United States has developed by leaps and bounds, and is in a world leading position in many fields such as rocket technology, weapon research, material science, medicine, bioengineering, computer and so on.

In the United States, where the level of science and technology is developed, there are a large number of research institutions in various disciplines, which can be divided into four types: government scientific research institutions, colleges and universities, industry and other non-profit institutions.

Government scientific research institutions are the basic force of American scientific research activities. There are about 700 government scientific research institutions in the United States, and the government supported scientific research institutions belong to more than 20 different government departments. The U.S. government has not set up a Ministry of science and technology, and American academies of science, engineering and medicine do not engage in specific scientific research. The most closely related to scientific research activities are the U.S. Department of defense, the Department of energy, the Department of agriculture, the Department of Commerce, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, the National Institutes of health and the National Science Foundation.

At this time, the US Department of defense and the Department of Commerce have the most say. Howard Malcolm Baldrige, as secretary of Commerce, is sure to attend the meeting because many things need their guidance. However, the status of large American enterprises and well-known universities is detached, and some people do not necessarily give him face.

Another big man is secretary of defense Caspar Weinberg, who is a cruel man called the cold war warrior. Born in San Francisco. In 1938 and 1941, he received bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of law from Harvard University. World War II served in the 41st infantry division in the Pacific theater. Retired after the war and worked as a lawyer. He was President Reagan's secretary of defense in 1981. In the meantime, he oversees $2 trillion in military expansion spending. Implement the largest military upgrade of the United States in peacetime. However, as the Reagan administration fell into the Iran gate scandal, Weinberg was also involved. He was tried on suspicion of lying to Congress and concealing thousands of pages of handwritten records. Resigned in 1987. In 1992, President Bush Sr. announced that he would grant Weinberg a "full, comprehensive and unconditional pardon"

Howard Malcolm Baldrige and Caspar Weinberg looked at each other, which obviously meant who said it first. After all, the president's special envoy has stated his position, and they should also express their respective views. Although they are both ministerial executives, the status of the Ministry of defense in any country is transcendent. It must be stronger than other departments, but now, after all, it does not involve national security, and the Minister of defense does not say much. National defense is the security guarantee of a country. Being able to come to the meeting shows that we attach importance to this matter; After all, science and technology and military are always closely linked.

But if you have to comment on such a small matter, you also look down on heiyun group and baozixuan. After all, at present, the other party only threatens American science and technology and industrial enterprises, not American national security.

Seeing this situation, Howard Markov Baldrige knew that the Secretary of defense did not want to say, so he could only explain the situation. So he solemnly said: "last time, you guys, we discussed the issue of black cloud group. The Ministry of commerce wants to sue it with antitrust investigation."

"However, after the investigation, it was found that although heiyun group is technologically advanced, it has not formed a monopoly position in any field. The Ministry of commerce can not impose the charges on the black cloud group for no reason, that is, the tax department will not agree. At the same time, it will make the Ministry of commerce the target of public criticism. No one dares to take this risk. "

"As for building a technology town in the United States, the Ministry of Commerce absolutely supports it, but at present, we must first consider the location. There are many places in the United States suitable for building technology towns, which is our advantage and disadvantage. "

Howard Markov Baldrige is also a smart man. He just wants to tell people that it is not the Ministry of commerce that doesn't want to investigate the black cloud group, but that people don't form a monopoly at all. As for the tax department, the meaning is also very obvious, that is, people are the largest taxpayer. It is estimated that the tax department will not agree to hand over the business of heiyun group to you guys.

Unlike Japan, the patriotism of American entrepreneurs is not so prominent. Many enterprises will register their parent company in the Cayman Islands, which can reasonably avoid a lot of taxes. Both black cloud computer and automobile companies are registered in the United States. Together, the two companies have become the largest taxpayer in the United States. Not only are the two black cloud technology companies, the registration place of Blackstone fund has always been on Wall Street.

Now the power is fully reflected, that is, the government doesn't want anything to happen to you. As long as you don't go too far, everyone will turn a blind eye.

In the United States, the tax department is definitely the most effective organization. Any enterprise and individual are frightened when they hear about the tax department, and the degree of fear is even greater than that of the FBI.

The U.S. tax department is very friendly to heiyun group and baozixuan. After all, there are few enterprises that have never done anything in tax; The most important thing is that we haven't even used reasonable tax avoidance.

Baozixuan itself has no large consumption and has not purchased any real estate in the United States. This makes there almost no tax credit items, and the annual tax data is particularly beautiful.

Tax authorities like such companies and entrepreneurs. They think this is the embodiment of social responsibility. If anyone dares to attack the black cloud group, the tax department will not agree without evidence.

As for not saying where to build the technology Town, it is because the situation in the United States is more complex; The competition between East and West, South and north is much more fierce than that of Japan.

In those days, wars broke out in both the South and the north because of their interests. What else did they dare not do. As for the East and West, it can be seen from sports competitions that the final finals of many sports competitions in the United States are played by the eastern champions against the Western champions.

In addition, it will also involve the interests of various universities and enterprises. Everyone knows that it is appropriate to build in Silicon Valley. But MIT and Harvard will certainly have an opinion. These are the two most powerful universities in the United States.

Old Stanford University was founded because his son died while studying at Harvard, and then wanted to name a teaching building after his son, which was looked down upon. At the same time, Stanford and MIT have been competing for the first computer University in the world, which can be seen from the publicity of both sides. The award is basically divided by professors or alumni of the two universities, and the competition is very fierce.

As for enterprises, it is better to understand that many enterprises have a sphere of influence. Motorola is eager to build a technology town in Chicago, but Microsoft and Boeing certainly hope to build a technology town in Seattle. As for other enterprises, they have their own plans. It must be the closer it is to its headquarters, the better. In this way, the appreciation of the previously accumulated land alone will be enough for them to live a good life for several years.

Although you are Secretary of Commerce, Howard Markov Baldrige knows his position. He dare not show any inclination, otherwise he will easily offend others. It's good to say when you're in office. After you leave, you're nothing. In the United States, these entrepreneurs can do anything for their interests and must leave a way for themselves.
