Chapter 271 Stanford University Alumni?

Chapter 271 Stanford University Alumni?
Zhu Chen was born in a rural inland village. His parents are farmers who graduated from primary school. They have no great education. They only guard the one-acre three-point farm in their hometown.

Growing up in this kind of family, he helped out in the fields during summer vacations when the other kids played games and played around.Planting seedlings, weeding, cutting rice, threshing, he can do all these.

Perhaps it is precisely because of these experiences that Zhu Chen matured more precociously than his peers since he was a child.He doesn't spend all his time on having fun, but on studying. In addition to his natural intelligence, his grades are also outstanding.

In his impression, what impressed him the most was what his junior high school Chinese teacher said when he gave him a small lesson alone.

"Zhu Chen, the teacher knows that you mature earlier than other students, and you also know your family environment. If you don't study hard, you can only work in a factory if you don't pass the college entrance examination. The only way out is to study! Only by being admitted to a university can we change our destiny! For those students from wealthy families, the college entrance examination is just a relatively important exam, but for us, the college entrance examination is like a dragon gate, and we all It is a carp, only by jumping over the dragon head can we change our destiny!"

At that time, he seemed to understand what he said.

But he knows that he only needs to study hard, and read good books, so that he can live a good life.He wants to live a life of eating meat every meal, and he wants his parents to stop getting up early and working late just to make a little money...

Since junior high school, he has worked hard, and every time he takes the exam, he is the first in the grade.He was admitted to Tsinghua University with the city's number one science subject in the college entrance examination, and he still did not slack off in his studies. Finally, he successfully got an offer from Stanford University and came to this world's top prestigious university to study for a doctorate.

Academically, he is a master; but in love, he is a rookie.

Looking at the pretty girl in front of him, Zhu Chen felt a little unnatural.

"I, I feel better, I'm leaving the hospital..."

"Discharged?" Wang Yue glanced at him, remembering what he asked the doctor when he came here, and asked, "I asked the doctor when I came, and he said that it is okay to be discharged, but it is best to rest for two days, and you are sure you don't need to wait any longer for a while?"

"No need." After Zhu Chen's eyes fell on Wang Yue's face, he looked away immediately like a thief.

Noticing Zhu Chen's gaze, Wang Yue asked curiously, "Hey, are your eyes uncomfortable, why are you moving around?"

"No……"

"Really?" Wang Yue took two steps forward, stretched his head forward, and Zhu Chen quickly moved his head to the left.

"Ahem, it's not appropriate for a lonely man and a widow to live in the same room."

"Aren't you shy?"

"No……"

"Have you ever been in love?"

"Why should I tell you?"

"That seems to be gone." Wang Yue covered her mouth and smiled with crooked eyebrows.

In the liberal ethos of Stanford, it's unbelievable to be single.

"...I don't want to talk to you, I'm leaving the hospital!" Zhu Chen pulled out the infusion tube in his hand, got up straight away, and passed Wang Yue with a straight face.

Of course, he has never been in a relationship, and he spends all his time studying, so he has no time to chase girls.

Not to mention that it costs money to fall in love!

"Wait a minute, I'll be with you." Wang Yue chased after him.

Half an hour later, at the entrance of the hospital.

Wang Yue and Zhu Chen stood side by side, with the Silicon Valley full of tall buildings in front of them.

"Where are you going later?" Wang Yue stared at Zhu Chen intently.

She found an interesting thing, as long as she stared at the other person, the other person's face would blush.

Zhu Chen, who was stared uncomfortably by the other party's bold eyes, said with some embarrassment: "I want to go back to school." Wang Yue was stunned, "Back to school? MIT? That's a bit far..."

Zhu Chen had black lines all over his head, "No, why should I go to MIT?"

"Didn't Chen Hao come from MIT? His EQ is as low as yours, and with a nerdy image like yours, I think it fits well with MIT." Wang Yue said decisively after analysis.

Bathed in the long-lost sunshine, Zhu Chen said helplessly, "I'm from Stanford..."

"Really?" Wang Yue exclaimed, as if surprised.

"Of course it's true... I just graduated with a Ph.D. this year, and my advisor is Professor Lamport." Zhu Chen scratched his head, not understanding why the other party was surprised.

"Hello senior~"

Wang Yue suddenly smiled, and said softly, "I'm from a business school, and I'm studying for a Ph.D. in economics."

"what?"

Zhu Chen really didn't expect to be an alumnus.

His eyes widened immediately, a little surprised, and he stammered, "Is this such a coincidence?"

Wang Yue was also quite surprised, but she was very happy to meet the alumni. She raised the car key in her hand and said with a smile, "Senior, I just want to go back to school, so shall I give you a ride?"

"This..." Zhu Chen hesitated, looking for a taxi around, "Why don't you go first, I'll take a taxi."

It made him a little uncomfortable to be alone with a woman, let alone a good-looking sister!
"What kind of car are you taking, I'm on the way, let's go!" Wang Yue glared, and directly pulled Zhu Chen into the car.

The car started moving.

Because the community hospital where I live is very close to Stanford University, less than an hour's drive away.

This is also because Stanford University is located in Silicon Valley, which in turn can be said that Silicon Valley began with Stanford.

The historical origin of this also involves an enlightened president in the history of Stanford. He leased or sold a large area belonging to Stanford University to companies at a price far below the market price to build factories and offices. The exchange is that these companies When recruiting after growing in the future, Stanford students should be given priority.

Decades have passed, Silicon Valley itself no longer belongs to Stanford, but all Silicon Valley companies give priority to Stanford when recruiting students, but it has never changed.Moreover, since the first to settle around Stanford were small and medium-sized companies, the strongest entrepreneurial atmosphere in the world has been formed here.These countless companies in Silicon Valley provide Stanford students with a steady stream of internship and job opportunities.

There are also many famous company founders who went out of Stanford University.Such as: Google, Yahoo, Cisco, Hewlett-Packard, Nike, Sun Computer, etc., the total capital of these enterprises is equivalent to the tenth largest economic system in the world.

Not long after, palm trees appeared frequently.

Unlike domestic schools, Stanford University does not have a formal and majestic gate. You enter the campus by driving through the Palm Avenue lined with hundreds of tall palm trees.

Stanford's campus is particularly large, covering 8180 acres (the second largest campus in the United States).Like a small town, you can see beach volleyball courts, bookstores, fountains, etc. along the road.

Passing through the large lawn, you can see the iconic Hoover Tower of Stanford on the left, and the main building of the Spanish courtyard stands in front of it, with khaki stone walls and red roofs on both sides, and the arcades are connected, majestic .

Entering from the front of the main building, and passing through a piece of grass, you will arrive at the Main Quad surrounded by the main building, a large rectangular square that can accommodate thousands or even tens of thousands of people.

After more than three months, returning to campus made Zhu Chen feel a little emotional.

Through the car window, the figure of the Hoover Tower can be vaguely seen.I remember that every time I walk on the way back at night, the brightest light comes from the Hoover Tower.

Wang Yue in the driver's seat glanced at Zhu Chen and asked, "Senior, where are you going?"

Zhu Chen, who came back to his senses, said simply: "The building of the Engineering College will do."

"Okay, we'll be there soon." Wang Yue pursed her lips and couldn't help asking curiously, "Senior, is there anything you need to do at school this time?"

As she said that, she added: "Well, maybe I can help you."

"The original mission was to acquire Intel's AR business, but it was cut off by Apple." Zhu Chen's face was calm, but when he mentioned Intel, a trace of hatred flashed in his eyes.

"Huh? So what do we do now?"

"I'm not going back to school now. I want to ask my advisor if there are any good start-up companies near Silicon Valley to recommend." Zhu Chen let out a foul breath as he spoke.

Intel failed, and now it can only follow the principal's instructions to find some potential entrepreneurial companies to acquire, and then establish Guanghua (Pretty Country) Research Institute to jointly develop MR smart glasses.

Silicon Valley is uniquely endowed and very suitable for starting a business. There are two famous schools nearby, Stanford and Berkeley. The atmosphere of entrepreneurship is very strong, and it is not surprising that some unicorn companies have been born.

Wang Yue asked: "What direction?"

"The direction of AR and MR is mainly about smart glasses." Zhu Chen thought for a while, and felt that this was not a confidential matter, so he said it directly.

"Smart glasses? I see. I'll go with you later." Seeing Zhu Chen opening his mouth, Wang Yue knew what the other party was going to say, and said first, "Don't refuse, isn't it convenient to have one more person? I know a lot of students who start businesses, and it would be good to help you find out when the time comes."

"This... well, will it trouble you?" Zhu Chen was a little at a loss, Wang Yue's participation was not in his plan.

Wang Yue said nonchalantly, "No, I'm not busy either."

While the two were talking, the car finally arrived at its destination.

The Engineering College Building, the entire building is made of bricks and tiles, but the appearance will be very new.At noon, there will be many students discussing and studying at the dining table, in the corridor or even sitting on the stairs.The second floor is the library and discussion classrooms.There is a large conference room on the third floor, where the entrance ceremony is held.

Zhu Chen stood on the first floor of the college building, and he could see the corners of each small classroom. Most of the classrooms were surrounded by transparent glass walls, and there were always more or less students in them.

Shaking his head, he walked into the engineering college building with Wang Yue beside him.

The sun was shining brightly behind him.

Full of vigor.
