Chapter 97 - 95: Are You Collecting Rent from the Landlord’s Family? (4/4)



Lincoln hurriedly tried to dissuade him, “There’s no need, there’s no need, you calm down!”

“The focus headband can only help people enter a state of concentration and cannot increase their IQ. Many people don’t even need it.”

The female assistant was also taken aback, shocked by Lorin’s amazing idea, and couldn’t help but step forward to persuade him, “Distributing to all citizens is impossible. It’s far beyond the scope of our department’s capabilities.”

Fortunately, Lorin was ultimately rational. Taking ten years of national defense budget for this?

Moreover, more than half, or even up to eighty percent, would inevitably be wasted. Workers won’t wear this thing on the job, farmers won’t wear it while farming, the elderly won’t wear it while playing chess, athletes won’t wear it during training…

Too many people do not need this thing.

Anyone who dares do such a wasteful thing will be criticized for at least half a century.

“Well, we should consider this carefully. Lincoln, what do you think?” Lorin calmed down and thought of the key to the problem now, “Or is it like the virtual reality device situation? But let me make it clear first, this time we can’t offer you 5% of the listing price as a share.”

At this point, Lorin, worried that Lincoln would misunderstand, explained:

“Although there’s no definitive development yet, I can assure you that this time it won’t be the small-scale production of hundreds of thousands of devices; the scale could be ten times or even a hundred times larger. We need to reduce costs as much as possible.”

Upon hearing Lorin’s promise, saying that the production of ten times or a hundred times more devices would be needed, the female assistant’s eyes widened.

Earlier, he had mentioned distributing to all citizens, which could be seen as a delusion in the heat of the moment, but now Lorin was discussing authorization issues and had clearly calmed down.

But even a calmed-down Lorin, how many devices did he anticipate producing?

10 million devices? 100 million devices?! This was a massive investment! As for the rough and wild-looking headband, how many times had it refreshed her concept today?

As for Lincoln, he really didn’t care about the licensing fees.

Because in his worst-case scenario, if Lorin’s side couldn’t provide help, he would have to handle the focus headband all by himself.

Then he would treat this matter as half a charity, producing the focus headbands and donating half of them directly to underprivileged areas in education.

For every device sold, a device would be donated, maintaining a strict half-and- half ratio.

Starting with the poorest places, donating one region and one school at a time.

Some people may say that this is not fair, that there are many poor places with similar degrees of scarcity in educational resources, and that sorting them out first is already unfair.

Let alone the numerous small counties, trying to start from the areas with the scarcest educational resources and go precisely and smoothly along the path of “from poor to rich” is basically impossible.

A major public opinion battle would inevitably ensue.

Lincoln even thought of a reply for moral criticism he might face in the future:

“I’m willing! None of your damn business!”

Fortunately, things went in a better direction, as Lorin guaranteed a large-scale market launch for the devices.

In that case, Lincoln didn’t want to worry about this issue anymore. He already had plenty of other things to do and couldn’t really spare the time.

However, although not too concerned about the licensing issue, he couldn’t dismiss it altogether.

Moreover, he suddenly had another idea: “I have an idea, unsure if it will work, you can check if there’s any possibility.”

Lorin nodded, “Go ahead.’

“Keep the licensing fee for the focus headband at 5% of the previous listing price, but don’t give it to me, just deduct it from Cloud Dream’s taxes. How about that?” Lincoln proposed somewhat whimsically: “I can help produce the devices as well, and the products produced can be directly used to offset taxes.

Is that possible?”

Lorin opened his mouth but didn’t say anything.

How about that? Of course not!

He was in charge of patents and also had channels for upwards reporting and cross-departmental communication for technical matters. However, tax authorities were really unfamiliar to him.

Moreover, he had never heard of paying taxes with products. Isn’t that a joke?

This is national tax revenue, not landlord -collected rent!

Furthermore, even if it were a landlord collecting rent, there was never a case where someone didn’t pay with grain but instead submitted some baskets as a substitute!

The female assistant couldn’t help but step forward, “There’s no precedent for this, it’s totally against the rules, this issue…”

“This is a much more complicated issue than you think, and it’s not something we can decide just by talking about it. It involves many departments and regulations.” Lorin interrupted the female assistant, “Give me a few days, and I’ll see if I can figure out a way for you.”

To the disbelief of the female assistant, Lorin surprisingly displayed a negotiable attitude.

“But let me tell you first, the method you proposed is definitely not possible.

You need to be prepared for that.”

Under normal circumstances, Lorin would have refused without hesitation, and he would have refused firmly and with strong words.

Even if the other party had good intentions and effectively paid their taxes in full, wanting to save the intermediate steps and to some extent improve the overall efficiency.

Tax collection is the foundation of the country, and loopholes must not be created haphazardly.

The problem is that Lincoln is not an ordinary merchant, and he’s a bit of a demon.

He first developed the world-leading virtual reality technology in a humble rental house, all by himself.

Then, in less than a month’s time, he came up with the “focus headband.”

This is a technology that can benefit tens of millions, even hundreds of millions of people!

He’s fully qualified to say that he’s pushing the development of the country with his own strength.

You should Imow, when the virtual reality technology material was given to the Science Academy, the academy organized eight academicians to lead a research team of nearly a hundred people to study the technology.

Producing the technology wasn’t difficult, as the material was very detailed. Following the steps, production could be achieved.

However, fully understanding the technology was not that simple.

As far as Lorin knew, that research team hasn’t dissolved yet!

Not only has it not dissolved, but two neurobiology academicians have also been added, supposedly specializing in brain science research.

Lorin looked at the crude-looking but amazing focus headband on the table and couldn’t help but sigh: Lincoln’s efficiency in research surpassed human limits.

Another issue that cannot be ignored: Lincoln is only 22 years old this year, and he hasn’t even graduated from university yet. According to the normal scientific research lifecycle, he hasn’t reached his prime research years! Moreover, the appearance of the focus headband proved that the birth of virtual reality technology was no accident.

Lincoln’s research talent is far from exhausted, and he can continue to produce new technologies and inventions in the future.

For someone like him, go along with it as much as possible. Do not refuse his requests as much as possible.

If refusal is inevitable, don’t refuse it entirely or refuse it on the spot! That’s why Lorin felt a bit conflicted but interrupted the assistant’s words right away.

Even though he had no clue, he had to interrupt her first. In any case, he couldn’t just refuse outright.

Although Lincoln’s request was indeed whimsical and had never been done before.

However, with his importance, perhaps a precedent can be set for him!
