Chapter 434: Thunderclaps from the Blue Sky

Chapter 434: Thunderclaps from the blue sky (Part )
Dean Shu felt that Chen Zhe was "biting too much rice to digest" and wanted to persuade him to focus on a certain sector.

Chen Zhuo could only explain plausibly:
The business of "Zhongda Learning Network" is already on the right track. Even if it wants to expand into markets outside the province, it can just follow the same steps within the province.

As for "Anju Real Estate Brokerage Co., Ltd.", the headquarter office has been established after the last enlarged meeting.

There are many factories in the Guangyuan Expressway area of ​​Tianhe District. One of them is a company that makes handicrafts and is planning to move away due to poor management.

Wang Youqing of Wanta Real Estate learned the information in advance and took over the place on behalf of Anju.com.

Because the rent is cheap, the area is quite large. Qu Baoguo's decoration company has already started work. After a little renovation, it can be divided into areas such as "office, training room, canteen", etc.

It can be predicted that tens of thousands of real estate agents will flock to various stores after undergoing this kind of assembly line training.

As for the "Tracing Mobile Assistant", one is to increase the company's reputation, and the other is to promote replies.

And that Taomi Technology...

"Where is Taomi Technology from?"

Dean Shu couldn't help but interrupt. He was too busy and had forgotten that he had met Wang Haibin last year.

"I invested in a gaming company. I've reported this to you."

Chen said blankly.

"is it?"

Only then did Shu Yuan have some impression.

His face turned grim as he took out a small bottle from the drawer, poured out a few black pills, and swallowed them all into his mouth.

Chen felt that it looked familiar and asked, "Xiaoyao Pills?"

"You are so young, how do you know this?"

Dean Shu said unhappily, "Ever since I started correcting students' papers, I have to take this medicine regularly to soothe the liver and regulate qi!"

Chen smiled awkwardly. When he was on a temporary assignment, he would take a few pills to calm down some unreasonable villagers.

However, because of the "taking medicine" episode, Dean Shu was able to be patient and listen to Chen Zhe's reasons why he had to develop a "reply letter".

Chen Zhe's eloquence was truly honed. Before his rebirth, it was common for him to speak or host meetings with hundreds of people in the industry.

In addition, he has excellent official document writing skills and can easily come up with parallel sentences to strengthen the tone. Even without a first draft, he can casually use "stable foundation, many advantages, strong resilience, and great potential" to summarize the development prospects of [Reply] in China.

Dean Shu had a serious look on his face and took a sip of tea from time to time.

He not only listened, but also observed.

Chen's firm body language in his every move demonstrated his determination in this matter.

"Hey……"

Shu Yuan sighed softly, feeling both relieved and conflicted.

Fortunately, Chen Zhe's spirit of "not afraid of failure, never stopping, pioneering and enterprising" fits the development trend of the current era.

The dilemma is that since we need to innovate, explore, and break people’s current inherent usage habits, we need to realize the transformation from “text messages, QQ, Fetion” to “replying to letters”.

This process will definitely be difficult, and if you are not careful, everything will be lost.

As an economics professor, Shu Yuan hopes to see the emergence of a new era.

But as Chen Zhuo's teacher, Shu Yuan was worried that his student would fail.

The office fell silent, with only the blue curtains on the wall fluttering as if trying to chase the wind's trajectory.

"squeak~"

The door was suddenly pushed open.

The young woman Min Yufang had probably finished her work, but as soon as she stepped in, she immediately felt a strange atmosphere.

Thus, the smile that was originally on his face disappeared in an instant.

She walked in quietly, trying her best to synchronize her breathing with the solemn rhythm in the office, and then walked to the tea table to boil water.

Making tea, passing cigarettes, and drinking three cups as a punishment are all good ways to quickly and effectively integrate into the environment.

"Professor Shu, is this okay?"

Chen Zhuo knew that the young woman came in, but he pretended not to hear her.

He waited with a little expectation for Dean Shu's opinion on the new project. Shu Yuan had been examining Chen, but after so long, all he saw was determination.

"What's your first step?"

Dean Shu finally asked.

Chen Zhuo felt relieved and became interested in the specific steps, which was a positive sign.

The young woman Min Yufang was still lingering in the office, but she couldn't care less and she didn't hear the most important content.

"The first step is to make a bigger noise."

Chen Zhuo leaned forward slightly, like a cheetah before attacking: "Our school currently does not have a key laboratory for computer networks, but Huazhong University of Science and Technology has..."

Shu Yuan's eyebrows twitched, but he didn't interrupt, waiting for Chen to continue.

The computer key laboratory of CUHK was indeed established in 2010, while that of SUSTC was established in 2002.

The main reason is that the positioning of the two universities is different. Sun Yat-sen University is a comprehensive university, while science and engineering are the strong disciplines of South China University of Technology.

“So I want to set up an institution with Suhui Technology, Zhongda Venture Capital and the Computer Network Key Laboratory of SUSTC as the sponsoring units.”

Chen's expression was somewhat excited, but his voice was very calm: "Suhui requires 100% shareholding in this institution, but high subsidies and project rewards will be given to teachers and students from the two schools who participate in the project research."

It is not uncommon for Sun Yat-sen University and South China University of Technology, two 985 universities in the province, to jointly research the same topic.

What is rare is that private enterprises are involved this time. In the past, only the government could bring these two universities together.

"How much are you prepared to invest?"

Dean Shu asked calmly.

Putting CUHK and SCNU into the same pot is definitely news in the province. No wonder Chen wanted to make a bigger fuss.

Of course, this matter is difficult to say, but it is not difficult either.

The difficulty is that the two universities are in competition with each other, so why should they listen to the orders of a private enterprise?
What’s not difficult is that as long as the money is in place, you can even keep adding money.

Not to mention Sun Yat-sen University Venture Capital and Huazhong University of Science and Technology Computer Key Laboratory, even the vice presidents of the two schools could be captured and used as laborers.

Hearing Dean Shu's question, Chen raised two fingers.

"Um……"

Dean Shu looked solemn, as if he was calculating.

Min Yufang was standing nearby, also trying to estimate how many these two fingers were.

"Twenty thousand?"

Min Yufang rejected it outright, saying the offer was too low and she could only hire a doctoral student.

"Two hundred thousand? That's possible."

Min Yufang works in a university, so she naturally knows that professors who cannot get research projects do not earn much.

Two hundred thousand would be enough to hire them to work on the project.

In fact, let alone 2008, the funding for National Natural Science Foundation projects in 2025 will only be a few hundred thousand yuan, and there are still many young professors rushing to apply.

"Could it be two million?"

Min Yufang suddenly thought of this number.

If it were two million, it would be enough to attract experts and professors in the industry.

But the young woman analyzed Chen's company again and found that the total assets might be two million. It was absolutely impossible for him to take out all the money at once to start the project.

So in the end, Min Yufang felt that two hundred thousand should be the correct answer.

"Take out 20 million."

At this time, Dean Shu slowly said: "If the project fails, it will take a long time to pay off the debt."

"what?!"

The young woman thought she had heard it wrong.
