Stratholme University, San Francisco, September 2001.

The School of Physics, like other schools, welcomes the latest batch of graduate graduates.

Gu Play is undoubtedly the most dazzling of them all.

In just 12 months and 3 four-month semesters, he got a Ph.D. in physics at the speed of light, which can be called the first speed of Stratholme in the past ten years.

"I thought that inviting him to Stratholme for exchange would allow him to leave enough industrial achievements in Greater America and Selenium Valley to contribute to the construction of the scientific and technological and economic strength of the free world. ”

"I didn't expect this fang to be so cunning! He can actually break through the master's achievements and forcibly get a doctorate just by relying on his extraordinary achievements in the field of astrophysics!

Stratholme's filthy U.S. imperialist school trustees don't know how many times they have complained about Gu Fun.

Before Gu Play came, they knew Gu Play's ability, and they made a cesium atomic clock and an AMS mass spectrometer.

So no matter how you look at it at that time, everyone thinks that Gu Play is an applied R&D talent in the field of physics. A group of people all thought of persuading Gu Yu to come over as an exchange student and give him good conditions, so that he could create value for Millican.

Who knew that this guy was so rebellious and so deeply hidden.

To engage in learning is to engage in learning, to get a doctorate is to get a doctorate, and people do not leak out any application technology in the industry, and they still have the ability to get a doctorate.

Who let Gu Play be a generalist in the physics world, astrophysics, which is a universal knowledge, just like that. And after all is done, there is no need to leave a set of experimental equipment.

What physical waste paper costs money in kind and adds physical Fermi?

There is Gu Ye in this world, and there is also Fermi Mao.

In the future, this proverb will be changed to reason and physical objects to play, regardless of whether it rhymes or not.

It's not that Gu Play didn't give Mi Guoyan a chance to squeeze his surplus value, the problem is,

Give you a chance and you won't be useful!ah (second tone), give you a chance and you won't be useful!

I could only watch Gu play with his clothes and go away, hiding his merit and fame.

……

After the graduation ceremony, Gu Wan concentrated on running his own technology company in San Francisco, personally engaged in research and development, and stayed for nearly half a year, because his girlfriend Ma Yiyi had not yet graduated.

In addition, because "The First 3 Minutes and 28 Seconds of the Universe" sold well, Gu Wan did not forget to continue to add a fire, and in this small half a year, he continued to publish some of his pure theoretical research in astrophysics and cosmology.

By the way, he finished writing the last part of his trilogy of popular science monographs, "A Brief History of Time".

He stayed until the spring of 2002, when Ma Yiyi finally graduated, and the legal age of the two of them was almost reached, and they officially got married in the Atlantic country, and returned to China after the wedding.

The wedding was not luxurious, and there were not many guests, but his family, including the woman's relatives and friends, attended it.

The reason why they got married in the Atlantic country is also because Gu Wan and Ma Yiyi are only 20 years old.

If you return to China, the man will not give a certificate until he is 22 years old, and in 02 years, he also advocated late marriage and late childbearing, so he got married in a foreign country.

Before getting married, Gu Yu calculated his property, which was only 30 or 50 million US dollars, so he didn't want to be extravagant, but just spent 300,000 US dollars to hold a wedding and entertain guests.

Only spending 1% of the family property to get married, in terms of proportion, it is indeed more frugal.

Gu Play didn't want to notarize his property before marriage, but Ma Yiyi was very considerate and offered to notarize it, and Gu Play was gone.

In this way, Ma Yiyi's pre-marital property is worth more than 2 million US dollars (she has been engaged in deep learning/convolutional neural network research and other business affairs over the years, plus some peripheral achievements can be sold, so she also has some net savings)

Gu Wan's assets, after careful appraisal, are about more than $40 million, and some of them are reflected in the company's technology and shares. Their technology companies have neither received external venture capital nor officially launched products on the market, but are only in the stage of burning money in R&D, so there has been no increase in valuation for the past year and a half.

The reason why Gu Play has so much money is related to the big sales of his subsequent popular science books and the money he made in the media field - as of the time of marriage, Gu Play's entire remuneration income and money earned through media programs/endorsements have exceeded 10 million US dollars.

"The Order of Time" has accumulated more than $4 million in remuneration, and "The First 3 Minutes and 28 Seconds of the Universe" is slightly less, with $2 million. The final finale, A Brief History of Time, is currently only 2 million, but the book has only been sold for a few months. In the future, the total income of "A Brief History of Time" will definitely far exceed the sum of the previous two books. Gu Wan is very sure that he will be able to earn more than 10 million US dollars with this book in the future, because his legend in the academic world is no less than when Huo Jingang debuted.

Taking the initiative to ask for property notarization made Gu Wan more at ease with Ma Yiyi, and he felt more determined that he couldn't be sorry for his wife in this life.

People are genuinely involved in changing the world with you, and want to be a part of making history, and they have no interest in money.

……

Soon after the marriage, in April 2002, the technology company "Hanhe Technology" finally launched the first generation of commercial products after the AMS mass spectrometer.

It is a GPS chip, as well as supporting software systems and interface services.

Because since the launch of the test satellite in 99 and the launch of commercial satellites in 2000, with the official commercialization of the network for two years, the GPS navigation system can finally provide commercial positioning services.

Of course, there will be several companies on the market that provide GPS navigation software interface services, and the competitiveness of Gu Play in overseas markets is not obvious for a while.

After all, he is only a scientist, not an entrepreneur.

However, because of his foresight and foresight, Hanhe Technology's product and R&D positioning is still very accurate, and has made its own characteristics, that is, focusing on miniaturization and interface simplification.

Because Gu Wan has participated in the research and development of some positioning components on satellites, it has a slight advantage in this regard.

Other peers on the market don't pay much attention to this issue, which allows Gu Play and Ma Yiyi to grab a little time difference.

The reason why peers do not pay attention to it is because in the first year of GPS commercialization, the fee is still very expensive, so the main users are merchant ships and civil airliners.

Merchant ships often cost tens of thousands of tons, and civil aviation is also very expensive, of course, these users are not bad for money, and they do not care about the miniaturization of navigation equipment and the software and hardware interface of chips.

The receiver of GPS navigation is not large, even if the first generation does not make any optimization, it is only the size of a radio, how can airplanes and cruise ships care if a radio can be reduced to the size of a matchbox, it doesn't matter.

Gu Wan and Ma Yiyi want to take the route of the big river on the earth and engage in drones, but they don't really care about the size and weight of the locator on the drone, because of the weight of a radio, the drone can still resist.

But within a few months, a new turnaround came.

In the summer of 2002, a mobile phone company from Oceania (not Apple, but with a similar positioning) was the first to release a smartphone.

IT IS NOT THE SAME AS THE FIRST APPLE IPHONE ON THE EARTH, BUT IT IS ABOUT THE SAME LENGTH AS THE ORIGINAL 3G MOBILE PHONE RELEASED BY HTC IN THE UNITED STATES.

There is also a full keyboard, but it can be freely loaded and unloadedAPP, and there is an open APP library.

After all, Blue Hole Star worships money so much, so business model innovation and user experience innovation are still very advanced, even if the performance of the mobile phone chip CPU is not strong, you must first put the smart machine out, the big deal is that there are fewer APP categories that can be supported, and you can't play games.

At the same time, the Internet companies and hardware technology companies in the Eastern Kingdom on the Blue Hole Star are also following up closely in terms of following up with their counterparts in the Oceanic Kingdom. Only half a year after the smartphones came out in Oceania, about 2003 during the Chinese New Year, the big mobile phone brands in the East have also come up with their own smart phones, similar to the Android route.

The demand for the miniaturization of navigation chips and circuits, as well as the need for the versatility of navigation software interfaces, have been raised all of a sudden, and it has also seized the opportunity for Hanhe Technology, which has been preparing for a long time.

Because of the Chinese-funded background of Hanhe Technology, when GPS first appeared, when it hit the domestic market of the Eastern country, its performance was very good, and many state-owned enterprises in the field of logistics and transportation had already purchased Hanhe's navigation equipment. For example, COSCO and some state-owned civil aviation. Therefore, even before the advent of smart phones, Hanhe Technology has stabilized in the domestic market by its own strength.

When the domestic smart machine appeared, the navigation technology of Han nuclear science and technology has basically been dominant in China for nearly a year, and people have done a good job of miniaturization, and by 03 years, the navigator can be compressed to the size of a matchbox, and mobile phone manufacturers have naturally chosen it.

DONGFANG'S SMART PHONES HAVE BECOME THE WORLD'S FIRST GENERATION OF MOBILE PHONES EQUIPPED WITH POSITIONING FUNCTIONS, ALTHOUGH THE SIZE OF THESE MOBILE PHONES IS FAR LARGER THAN THE IPHONE ON THE EARTH, BASICALLY NEARLY TWO CENTIMETERS THICK, AND IT WEIGHS HALF A POUND IN THE HAND.

Focusing on navigation equipment, Hanhe Technology has earned an order of magnitude higher profits than the AMS mass spectrometer business two years ago. The AMS mass spectrometer was limited by the global market size that year, and it sold more than 30 million US dollars in sales in total, with a net profit of only 20 million.

It has become the largest supplier of navigation technology solutions in China, and its market sales have exceeded 100 million US dollars in one or two years. Of course, the profit margin of navigation technology solutions is much lower than that of selling mass spectrometers, so the total net profit is comparable to that of the mass spectrometer business, about 30 or 40 million US dollars.

In addition to making money, the commercial shipment of navigation and positioning technology solutions has also further consolidated some of the shortcomings of the UAV flight control system independently developed by Hanhe Technology, so the listing of Hanhe UAV is also close at hand.

(Accelerating the plot must bring a little running account, forgive me.) The book will be completed on November 8. ）
