The end of technology.

Ok……

Speaking of this, Lu Zhengyue really had nothing to say.

I just looked at Ning Zi's young face, and sighed silently in my heart...Look at what happened!

When I was struggling in my heart, the phone in my pocket suddenly vibrated.

After taking it out and looking at it, Lu Zhengyue laughed again.

Then he took the phone and waved at Ning Zi, and said, "Yes, it's fine if you think there's no problem, I'll go first."

As he spoke, he stood up and walked out of Ning Zi's office. Then he paced around and answered the phone slowly: "Hey, Professor Fan, what's the matter?"

"Old Lu, have you heard? Ning Zi found a mentor in Huaqing?"

With a smile on the corner of Lu Zhengyue's mouth, she said, "Look at what you said, how can I know about the matter of Taida and Huaqing before you?"

"No, what does Ning Zi mean? I just searched for that Chen Lixiang's resume, and it seems ordinary?"

Lu Zhengyue snorted coldly and said, "Hehe, you seem ordinary, right? Do you know Chen Lixiang? Have you ever attended his class? Have you read his paper? Have you invited him to dinner? No? Nothing, why do you say that he is mediocre? Why? You still want to grab Ning Zi’s position as a mentor? Xiao Fan, we have to be self-aware. With the current level of activity in your brain, Ning Zi can write a paper Come out, do you understand?"

"I... When did I say I wanted to join in the fun? I'm just curious."

Lu Zhengyue said disdainfully: "Hypocrisy, don't think I don't know what I'm thinking. It's nothing more than our mathematics department, and it was built with your assistance. This kind of benefit should be given to you Yanbei University. Don't think about it, Ning Zi looked for it." The supervisor is to get a doctorate, and then he plans to apply to lead doctoral students. If you have time to care about these, you might as well think about whether Yanbei University has any good seedlings."

"Ning Zi is willing to bring a doctor? Old Lu, are you kidding me?"

Lu Zhengyue said angrily: "What joke am I kidding you? Are you making trouble?"

The voices of scolding were several octaves higher.

But it seems that something has come to mind, and Lu Zhengyue's voice softened in the next sentence: "Well, there is one more thing to tell you, this year, our Department of Mathematics is planning to hold the first postgraduate entrance examination summer camp this summer, which will probably be in mid-August Later, you can promote it among the sophomores and juniors of Yanbei Mathematics College. And this time we will start the class, but it will be in charge of Dominion Duncan. He can lead students now, in other words , it is very possible to have a boss with a Fields Medal winner. Especially those children who are interested in direct blogging, let them all come and see. We Yanbei and Tida are family members."

Lu Zhengyue's words probably made the opposite party feel very complicated.

If you can't use it, you can just yell at it, and if you can use it, the two schools are a family.This is somewhat shameless.

But then again, for the students, if they can study with Dominion Duncan in Ningzi in the future, it will be of great help.Not to mention anything else, the recommendation letters of these two people are more important than his recommendation letter.And it works all over the world.And the chances of learning the real skills are even greater.

"Yeah, I see. I'll ask later. Your schedule is pretty good, and it happened to be staggered with us."

"Haha, there is no way. After all, our mathematics department is just starting. The preparation work is slow. I will send you a copy of the summer camp admission letter later. Remember to ask the counselor to help us publicize and find more If you come here with an outstanding child, don’t record any of them by then, just smashing the signboard of your School of Mathematics at Yanbei University.”

"I...forget it, hang up."

"Goodbye."

Lu Zhengyue hung up the phone triumphantly.

In fact, he is not too worried about the source of students for the summer camp.

With Ning Zi, Dominique Duncan, and Conan Lamar as signs, I am not afraid that those who are really capable will not come.Of course, to be honest, the students from Yanbei University's School of Mathematics are naturally the best, after all, they were screened in advance.

Now Lu Zhengyue thinks differently.

I used to think that with these people, the Department of Mathematics of Yanbei University of Physical Education could develop into the top five in China.

But today, I learned from Chen Yonggang that Ning Zi is about to set up a [-] billion natural science research and development fund, and will make additional investment when it runs out, which also makes Lu Zhengyue think about things differently.

After that, the Department of Mathematics of the University of Physical Education will not be number one in the country, so I am sorry.

……

After watching Lu Zhengyue leave, Ning Zi also almost finalized the candidates for the other two mentors.I took the time to chat with Lu Xiaoya who had already returned to school on WeChat, and it was almost time for lunch.

Just about to make an appointment to have lunch with Lu Xiaoya on WeChat, Ge Linyue called.

"Ning Zi, let's have lunch together?"

"What's up?"

"There is indeed something I want to talk to you about."

"about what?"

"Well... there's a conference going on in Silicon Valley..."

"I know."

Ning Zi interrupted Ge Linyue, thought for a moment, and said, "Mr. Ge from Youwei Group is also here. We had an appointment to meet at two o'clock in the afternoon. Since you want to talk about this matter, why not have lunch together at noon. He should be able to come."

"Ge Dongshu?"

"Ah."

"Isn't it convenient?"

"It's nothing inconvenient. In fact, he came here this time because of what you said. I received the news yesterday, and I probably know the purpose of their establishment of the Semiconductor Alliance."

"Uh... that's fine, I'll contact him. I've made an appointment to send you the address."

"Just around the school, not too far away."

"no problem."

……

The hotel that Greenyue chose to dine at was right next to the University, and it was also the hotel officially arranged by the negotiating team for the turbulence algorithm.

There is no way to be big. There are not many hotels suitable for high-end hotels here.

However, the main building of Ningyuan has been capped and is currently undergoing interior decoration.

It is said that Kim Jong Nam, who is desperately trying to express himself, stares inside every day, thinking that the decoration speed can be a little faster.In the second half of the year, Ning Yuan will basically be able to undertake this large-scale reception task.

However, members of the negotiating team usually go to western restaurants to eat. Ge Linyue booked a box in the Chinese restaurant this time, but after Ning Zi came over, she didn't meet anyone from the delegation.

When Ning Zi walked over slowly, Ge Linyue and Ge Dongshu had already had a good conversation in the private room.At the very least, it must not appear that the two belong to two companies that happen to be competitors.

"Brother Ning, I've waited for you, come, sit here."

Ning Zi pushed the door open and walked into the box, Ge Dongshu immediately stood up enthusiastically and waved his hands and said, putting on a posture of overwhelming the host.

"Brother Ge, you don't have to be so polite." Ning Zi replied casually.

This made Green Yue somewhat depressed.

In fact, the title of Ning Zi has always given her a headache.

Calling Ning Zi directly seems a little bit out of place, calling Professor Ning is still a student, calling classmate Ning looks condescending, calling Xiao Ning seems like she is relying on the old to sell the old, calling Mr. Ning, who is not a businessman, maybe he will be disgusted... It is a headache... .

Of course, the main reason is that she can't be as shameless as Ge Dongshu.

Brother Ning's name...

Well, she's a woman, and that doesn't seem like a good idea either.

After struggling for two seconds, Ge Linyue still nodded slightly at Ning Zi and said, "Ning Zi, hello."

"Hello."

After saying hello politely, the three of them sat down respectively, and the waiter also started to serve the dishes, and soon served six dishes.Then he left under Ge Linyue's signal, and closed the box door smoothly.

Ge Linyue also said formally: "Ning Zi, today I am entrusted by Mr. Cook to tell you about this matter. Apple only learned of the establishment of the Semiconductor Industry Alliance in Silicon Valley not long ago. Mr. Cook also received the invitation. However, because he happened to be in Europe to participate in a future development summit forum, he did not participate in this meeting. However, we still heard some news. But I hope you know that a series of policies formulated by the industry alliance have nothing to do with us. Apple did not Participated in the discussion and did not express any opinion."

This is a formal statement.

However, it is really annoying for Apple to spread this kind of thing at this juncture.

The research and development center that was built with a lot of money is almost complete.The custom-made equipment that took a lot of thought to get done has almost been installed, and the last batch has almost arrived at Huaxia's port.After entering the customs and sending it to the R&D center for debugging, the deal between the two parties can be concluded.Apple can also get the intelligent voice control technology that has been on the mind for a whole year.

As a result, at this juncture, those real friends and businessmen suddenly made such a fuss, what would Tim Cook say?

How should he express his opinion?

It's like plowing the land in spring and planting seeds, and then doing my best to water and fertilize the crops every day, and finally wait until the fruiting autumn, when someone is going to dig the roots... Who can accept this?

That's why Tim Cook didn't attend the Semiconductor Alliance executive meeting.

It is exactly contrary to Apple's current core interests.

Based on Tim Cook's understanding of Ning Zi, if Apple joins this alliance, it is really possible for him to turn his face and deny anyone.

"I believe that."

Ning Zi nodded, and then asked: "However, what I am worried about is not these, but whether the equipment in our Tida Chip Research Center can be debugged normally, whether it can start operation as planned, and whether it will be repaired if maintenance is needed in the future. affected."

Ge Linyue said immediately: "We have learned about some situations and have prepared a plan to deal with it. No matter whether Apple will have to join the alliance due to certain pressure in the future, or what policies the alliance has issued. But for the big For the chip research center project, we will always carry out follow-up maintenance according to the contract. For this reason, we have planned to establish a mechanical maintenance company around Huaxia, and hire mature maintenance engineers for related instrument products.

But at the same time, Mr. Cook also regrets to let me inform you, in view of the uncertainty of the development of the situation.Apple's support for Huaxia Yanbei Sports University at the semiconductor level will also be limited to the cooperation agreement we signed before, and it will be difficult for me to provide follow-up services beyond the agreement agreed in the previous agreement in the future.I hope you can understand this too, Mr. Ning. "

Ning Yu nodded slightly, and said: "Well, I can understand. In fact, Apple is also quite difficult. After all, you also need to use the patents of companies such as Qualcomm, Google, Intel, and Microsoft. If the pace is not in line with them, it is indeed easy to be caught. To criticize. Help me tell Mr. Cook that he can withstand the pressure and maintain the content of the agreement we signed before. I am very satisfied. After the last batch of equipment is put on the shelves in the R&D center, I will also upgrade the Siri system for Apple as agreed .”

Hearing Ning Zi's answer, Ge Linyue was obviously relieved, as long as Ning Zi still accepted the contract, it would be fine.Dealing with scholars like Ning Zi is very tiring. The other party is not a company. If you really want to turn your face and deny people, it will be very troublesome.

Especially after seeing Ning Zi's willful side, Ge Linyue was extremely afraid of Ning Zi.

Of course, Tim Cook probably thinks so too.

That's why Ge Linyue was asked to talk to Ning Zi first, but he called to talk to Ning Zi about this matter.After all, if Tim Cook talks with Ning Zi in person, if the talk really collapses, there will be no room for relaxation between the two sides. Apple can no longer take back the R&D center that has been built.

"Mr. Cook also meant the same thing, and thank you very much for understanding our difficulties. Ning Zi, I would like to toast you." Green Yue said, holding up the wine glass.

"Uh... Mr. Ge, you know I don't drink alcohol, so I use tea instead of wine. And it's the right thing to do things according to the contract. It's the same sentence, as long as Apple guarantees the construction of the chip research and development center according to the previous contract. Regarding the progress and maintenance of future equipment, I will definitely provide you with corresponding technology and maintenance services according to the agreement. Everyone will come according to the contract. As for the future, we will talk about it in the future."

After speaking, Ning Zi took a sip from the teacup, and then looked at Ge Dongshu who had been quietly listening to the communication between the two.

"Mr. Ge, you should have a general understanding of what Manager Ge said just now. I also talked to you about this matter yesterday. Originally, in my conception, Youwei and Apple could really carve up the global high-end smartphone market. However, after the implementation of a series of policies of the Semiconductor Alliance, Youwei Group will face great difficulties in competing with Apple in the next high-end mobile phone market. So I still have that opinion, Youwei Group can take the initiative to give up competition with Apple. About two to three years later, Youwei Group will launch a dimension reduction attack on Apple's products, what do you think?"

After saying this, Ge Linyue and Ge Dongshu were stunned at the same time.

How should I put it, one sentence can make two competitors feel that this guy is too headstrong at the same time, and there is probably no one else.

Shouldn't this kind of thing be talked behind your back?

Yes, this question is asked, and it will not be possible to fix Ge Dongshu.

It seems that nothing is right.

After pondering for a while, Ge Dongshu said slowly: "Uh...We Youwei never regard friends and merchants as enemies, but we will still seize the opportunity to focus on and improve ourselves, and to cultivate our inner strength. living."

"Ok!"

Ning Zi nodded, and said, "Actually, I also know what you mean by coming to the capital. For Youwei Group, it is indeed not easy to temporarily abandon the field that has invested a lot of money before and start a completely unfamiliar direction. It is indeed difficult to make up our minds. However, the pain of development is inevitable, and the technological direction can also be broken and established. As long as they can't stop us this time, the next step will be smooth. It is nothing more than bypassing their patents. It’s just our own chip, and it’s just our own product.”

After hearing these words, Ge Dongshu understood clearly and stopped talking.

Ge Linyue finally couldn't bear it any longer, and said, "Ning Zi, are you planning to bring Youwei Group together to research new chip technology?"

Ning Zi nodded and said: "Yes, the market will be left to you for the time being. When we will make a usable chip, we will use the next generation of equipment to compete with Apple. Congratulations, Manager Ge, you have the upper hand. "

Ge Linyue had a complicated expression on his face.

To be honest, she really didn't know where Ning Zi's self-confidence came from.

A chip is an extremely complex system from design to manufacture.It involves almost all industrial powers in the world.

It can be said that the smartest group of people in the world support the entire upstream and downstream industry chain of semiconductors.

Youwei Group has spent several years and huge investment, but it has only achieved some achievements in the field of chip design.But it has no production capacity.

Listening to what Ning Zi said now, it seems that he will be able to produce chips by himself in two or three years with the Youwei Group...

Let her not know how to evaluate.

In fact, Ge Linyue wanted to tell Ning Zi that industrial upgrading is not as simple as solving a mathematical problem. It involves too many special and detailed things. For a tiny accessory, the rate of good products can be increased by [-]%. It can only be successful after countless people's groping.

But she obviously didn't have the position to say this.

In the end, I could only choose not to express my opinion and began to change the subject.

Ge Linyue had nothing to say, and Ge Dongshu naturally wouldn't mention it.

Although he didn't know why Ning Zi asked him to come to today's dinner, but the content of the chat that was obviously not right just now let him know that Ning Zi was sure of his thoughts, so naturally he should say less and make fewer mistakes at this time.

Ning Zi knew very well that he was not here to talk about chip manufacturing, but to set foot in the field of robotics.But since Ning Zi didn't take the initiative to bring up this topic, he naturally wouldn't say anything more in front of Ge Linyue.

Fortunately, both Ge Linyue and Ge Dongshu are well-informed people, and they can always find many suitable topics, so that the atmosphere at the dinner table will not be too boring.

After a meal, Ning Zi suddenly felt that the two were a good match.

Especially since I was born in technology before, I can not only chat and exchange work, but also exchange a few words about some very professional technical content.There is no need to worry about not having a common language after marriage.

……

After the meal, Ge Linyue, who had already completed her task, would not stay in Ningzi, and left at the door of the hotel.

The afternoon time belonged to Ge Dongshu who had made an appointment with Ning Zi.
