Chapter 297 The foundation is established!
Since entering college, Chen Tianpeng has regarded Ning Chen as his idol, and after Ning Chen gradually moved to a higher level, Chen Tianpeng's emotions became stronger.
"Brother Chen, Xingchen Technology has now become one of the top technology companies in the world. But after all, Xingchen Technology alone cannot solve all technical problems. I hope to use my own strength to do some Xingchen Technology cannot take into account the projects mentioned above."
"Tianpeng, what specific projects do you want to do?"
"Well... what I am thinking of right now is the direction of the screen or the lens. . I feel that although these technologies are not as important as chips, they are also indispensable in many technological devices. However, neither Xingchen Technology nor Warwick has taken action to solve these technologies.”
After hearing these ideas from Chen Tianpeng, Ning Chen nodded seriously, and at the same time, he also expressed his deep approval of the directions proposed by Chen Tianpeng.
As Chen Tianpeng said, Xingchen Technology alone cannot solve all technological problems.
The current key research projects of Xingchen Technology are only limited to a few key areas. The research of many other projects still requires the efforts of other technology companies.
Without excellent screens, lenses and other accessories, no matter how good the chip is, it still cannot be assembled into a sufficiently outstanding device.
"Tianpeng, just feel free to follow your direction. We will do our best to provide you with the greatest help." Ning Chen said.
"Yes, Tianpeng, although we are not as powerful as Ning Chen, we are still teachers at the School of Materials Science and Technology of Shengzhou University. If there are any horizontal topics in the future, you are welcome to cooperate with us."
See you there. Everyone was very supportive of their idea, and Chen Tianpeng also felt a little moved.
"With your support, I really feel relieved. At that time, I was a veritable student in our dormitory. I didn't expect that you could still believe in me so much."
"Tianpeng, There is no need to belittle yourself like this. After all, our dormitory is not an ordinary dormitory. In our school, your grades are pretty good. What’s more, you did this without studying hard.”
After thinking about it, Ning Chen continued:
"Tianpeng, do you have any difficulties with funds?"
In fact, normally, Ning Chen does not have to worry about Chen Tianpeng's financial problems. After all, Chen Tianpeng's family is wealthier than the average family. A lot, otherwise it would not be possible for Chen Tianpeng to have such an easy opportunity to start a business.
But from the perspective of the whole country, or even the world, the little money Chen Tianpeng's family has is definitely not worth mentioning.
Now Ning Chen already has very rich wealth. If Chen Tianpeng really has a very good plan, Ning Chen is also willing to provide some support to Chen Tianpeng.
Hearing Ning Chen’s words, Chen Tianpeng replied:
"I have prepared some funds. Of course, the more funds, the better, otherwise it will be difficult to expand the industry. Brother Chen, do you want to invest some funds in me... Hey, actually this is my first time starting a business, so I also I don’t have enough confidence. My family’s money is fine. If I lose Brother Chen’s money, I’ll feel a little sorry.”
In front of Ning Chen, Yang Yan and the former commander, Chen Tianpeng. He still seemed a little inferior. Chen Tianpeng knew that there was a huge gap between him and them in terms of professional knowledge.
Ning Chen does not have any worries about Chen Tianpeng because of this. As long as Chen Tianpeng wants to do this from the bottom of his heart, even if he loses some of his own money, it is not a big deal. matter.
Of course, Ning Chen would not just call Chen Tianpeng the investment funds casually, so he said:
"Tianpeng, when you write out the mature plan and send it to me, I think if there is no problem, the investment funds will definitely be in place. No matter whether you make money or lose money, it is completely acceptable.”
"Brother Chen, I'm so touched that you can say that. I will definitely try my best not to let you down."
After the meal, everyone seemed a little drunk.
Ning Chen and Yuan Shuai are relatively good friends. Ning Chen will not get drunk easily now, but Yuan Shuai did not drink too much. After all, he has to continue to go to the laboratory normally the next day. .
Chen Tianpeng and Yang Yan drank a little too much, especially Yang Yan, whose drinking capacity was not as good as Chen Tianpeng's. He kept drinking with Chen Tianpeng, so he obviously drank a little too much.
At this time, Yang Yan suddenly said emotionally:
"Brother Chen, to be honest, I really regret not going to your laboratory at that time. It's not that I have any opinion against you, it's just that being under your light all the time will make me look a lot dimmer. But the fact is It proves that my choice is wrong, and the current achievements of the former commander are enough to prove this point.”
In fact, Yang Yan’s current scientific research path is relatively successful, although he has not made as many achievements as the former commander. It is in top journals such as "Academic Sky" and "Nature", but it has also published several papers in SCI area 1, which is very outstanding among its peers.
It’s just that compared with the current former coach, Yang Yan does seem to be inferior, which makes Yang Yan inevitably feel a little unfair.
You know, when he was in school, Yang Yan was second only to Ning Chen in the School of Materials Science and Technology of Shengzhou University.
Yang Yan’s words made Yuan Shuai feel a little embarrassed, but Yuan Shuai also knew in his heart that his ability was indeed not as good as Yang Yan’s. Yuan Shuai could understand Yang Yan’s mood.
Ning Chen faced this matter relatively calmly, thought for a while and said:
"Yang Yan, we all have our own reasons for the choices we have made in the past, and there is no need to regret it. Just like I received invitations from Shuimu University, Yenching University, MIT, etc., but in the end I chose to stay at Shengzhou University. To be honest, I hesitated during this period and made other choices. Would it be better, but who can really say clearly without having experienced this kind of thing once..."
Listening to Ning Chen's words, the negative emotions in Yang Yan's heart gradually dissipated a lot. .
As Ning Chen said, these were the choices Yang Yan himself made after careful consideration.
Even if Yang Yan really chooses to go to Ning Chen's laboratory, he may not be like the current Marshal Yuan, because Yang Yan and Marshal Yuan are two people with completely different personalities, and Yang Yan may not be able to adapt to Ning Chen. The environment and identity of Morning Lab.
Perhaps Yang Yan's most suitable choice is to have a laboratory where he can be the focus of training.
Seeing that Yang Yan's mood was somewhat relieved, Ning Chen continued:
"Yang Yan, even if we are not in the same laboratory now, it doesn't matter. We can still do experiments together if we have the opportunity. After all, we are both teachers in the Materials Laboratory of Shengzhou University, and I often do experiments across schools, let alone across laboratories. You are always welcome in my laboratory.”
Ning Chen is not just saying some polite words to Yang Yan, but he does have the intention to cooperate with Yang Yan.
Putting aside other factors, Ning Chen highly recognized Yang Yan’s thinking ability and professional qualities.
If normal development continues, Yang Yan's ability will not even be inferior to Xu Zhou's in the future. "Brother Chen, if you say that, I take it seriously! Come on, let me offer another drink to Brother Chen!"
"Okay, Yang Yan, you have drunk enough today. If you don’t, then don’t drink anymore. We have to help Tianpeng do horizontal tasks together. We have to keep a clear mind at all times.” "
In the end, with everyone's help, Yang Yan staggered back to his residence.
...
After this gathering, Chen Tianpeng immediately wrote his own business plan as promised at the dinner table.
Chen Tianpeng still has strong abilities when he is serious. Within a few days, Chen Tianpeng wrote a detailed plan.
In the plan, Chen Tianpeng described his ideas in detail, even down to how he would purchase various licenses, how many employees to recruit, etc., all listed very clearly.
In terms of professional knowledge, although Chen Tianpeng is not as detailed as Ning Chen and others, Chen Tianpeng has a very good understanding of equipment market issues and can be said to be an expert in commercial technology.
After reading Chen Tianpeng's plan, Ning Chen quickly made his decision.
“It seems that Tianpeng is really serious about starting a business this time. It can be said that apart from the scientific research problems that Chen Tianpeng has not yet solved, Chen Tianpeng himself has already thought about many of the remaining problems. Okay.”
Of course, these scientific research issues are not something that boss Chen Tianpeng needs to worry about. As long as Chen Tianpeng can grasp the general direction of the project’s research and development, the rest of the problems can be left to the scientific researchers to solve. .
Ning Chen even feels that in the field of business, Chen Tianpeng is better than himself now.
Without too much hesitation, Ning Chen immediately agreed to invest in Chen Tianpeng's company and informed the financial department of Xingchen Technology about this decision.
After receiving Ning Chen's reply, Chen Tianpeng also seemed very excited. After all, Ning Chen is now a real rich man, far beyond the level of Chen Tianpeng's father.
Due to being too busy at work, Ning Chen felt that he might not be able to be the person in charge of these horizontal topics, so he asked Yuan Shuai and Yang Yan to be mainly responsible for researching these topics, while he himself took the time to participate according to the situation. into the project.
The research on screens and lenses is certainly important, but among Ning Chen’s many topics, the priority will still be lower. With the leadership of Yuan Shuai and Yang Yan, Ning Chen will feel more at ease.
Projects such as quantum computers and personal computer systems are some of the projects that Ning Chen is more concerned about.
When building quantum cloud networks and mass-producing quantum computers, Xingchen Technology did not publicize the news. However, as time went by, more and more people learned about the news. .
Xia Guo's leading position in the field of quantum computing makes many Chinese people proud of it.
“Our current position in the world’s quantum computing field is roughly equivalent to America’s position in the world’s aircraft carrier industry. This will allow our various technologies to develop rapidly, and many scientific research projects can be completed faster. Conduct research. "
"It is said that Gu Ge Company has suspended their research on quantum computers because there is a large gap between them and Xingchen Technology in this field. I never expected that one day. We can actually lead Google in the field of technology.”
“Now some universities and scientific research institutions have opened up some of the computing power of quantum computers, and we can also experience a lot of this. The computing efficiency of quantum cloud is much higher than that of ordinary computers and servers.”
In addition to their leadership in quantum computers, the popularity of the Star OS system also makes them feel very special. of glory.
Compared with the Android system, the Xingchen OS system pays more attention to the user experience of Xia Guo users and is a mobile phone system completely centered on Chinese.
This allows everyone to see Xia's confidence that it is truly at the top of science and technology, and its sense of national honor has also been greatly improved than before.
On this day, Lu Minghao reported the progress of various tasks to Ning Chen via phone.
Through Lu Minghao’s report, Ning Chen learned that research projects related to the construction of a new generation of quantum computers and personal computer systems were proceeding in an orderly manner.
After saying this, Lu Minghao continued to add:
"By the way, Mr. Ning, you said you wanted to establish a foundation before, and now we have officially completed the relevant procedures. This foundation is named 'Star Foundation', and 500 million has been invested so far. ”
Ning Chen was also very satisfied when he heard that the foundation matters had been dealt with.
A fund of 500 million seems to be a lot, but judging from the current size of Xingchen Technology, it is still very easy to come up with this money.
Because the revenue brought by the Xingchen OS system alone in a year has reached tens of billions of dollars, plus the income from other businesses such as quantum computers and quantum cloud networks, Xingchen Technology has become a world-class famous enterprise.
Ning Chen has a rough plan in mind for the arrangement of the 500 million yuan.
"Manager Lu, I plan to use 100 million yuan every year to support the teachers and students of Shengzhou University. The remaining funds will be used to support other scientific research institutions and universities in our Xia Kingdom."
Such a distribution ratio is naturally due to Ning Chen's special feelings for his alma mater. Of course, Ning Chen will still be very strict when it comes to scientific research funds and scholarships, and will never allow any use of unfair means to defraud funds.
After explaining some details of fund allocation to Lu Minghao, Lu Minghao also said that he would handle the matter immediately.
After sorting out the details of scientific research funds, Ning Chen entrusted Lu Minghao to inform Shengzhou University of the establishment of his foundation in the name of the company.
