Chapter 895: It's Happy to Think About It
Few people know better than Hu Zhengming what a large-scale computer and microelectronics R&D center means, that is, investment and investment, and the accumulation of huge investment.
Accumulation is just an ideal situation.
According to the current market, it is not uncommon for many R&D centers to return empty-handed after a huge investment, which means that the huge investment of investors may be wasted.
Therefore, he must know whether Wu Xiaozheng really has the strength to invest heavily in the long term, and whether he is mentally prepared to return empty-handed.
Otherwise, if this R&D center dies halfway because of Wu Xiaozheng's reasons after spending a lot of his energy, it will be more than worth the loss for him and many researchers, and it will be a serious waste of energy and hard work.
The proof of strength is really simple for Wu Xiaozheng.
Because Wu's enterprise has just held the annual meeting, last year's business data is basically complete, he only needs to take out the relevant data, and then play the summary video at the annual meeting, so that Hu Zhengming can know how profitable the current Wu's enterprise can be, and how big the future development potential is.
Wu Xiaozheng's strength in investment is undoubted, as long as he has the determination to invest, it is indeed not a problem to maintain two domestic and foreign R&D centers.
Hu Zhengming first confirmed this.
Next, it's time to test Wu Xiaozheng's psychological endurance.
"Have you ever thought that once the research results of this R&D center cannot be put into application, your huge investment is likely to be lost?"
Wu Xiaozheng smiled.
As soon as Hu Zhengming's words came out, he knew that this top expert had been completely moved by his plan.
In that case, it was his turn to set the rules.
Any cooperation, if the rules are not clearly defined in advance, is likely to lead to disputes in the middle of the process, and eventually lead to the breakdown of cooperation.
Just like the cooperation between Liu Chuanzhi and Ni Guangnan.
Therefore, he must put the ugly words in front and let everyone do things according to the established rules, which includes both the principles of operation and the direction of development.
The two sides must have the same goal for this cooperation to be able to continue.
"There are many reasons why an R&D center ends up losing all its money, but there are only a few main ones. ”
"One is that my commitment is weak. ”
"If that's the reason, then I have to admit it. ”
"Second, there are problems in the direction of research and development. ”
"Therefore, in the determination of the direction of research and development, it must be recognized by me, otherwise I would rather not vote. Once I approve it, if the investment is still lost, then I can only admit it. ”
"Third, there are problems with the use of resources invested by the R&D team. ”
"Although I am willing to invest, I firmly oppose the unplanned allocation of resources and the serious waste of resources, so in terms of investment, the R&D team must have a specific and feasible resource use plan to avoid waste, so that I can invest with confidence. ”
Wu Xiaozheng said it very clearly.
Although he is willing to give his all, his commitment is not unprincipled, and the behavior of the research team is not unlimited.
This was instead recognized by Hu Zhengming.
He knows that what he is most afraid of when doing research is the kind of hot-headed investment, which is likely to die halfway.
On the contrary, a planned and principled investment like Wu Xiaozheng is more reliable and long-lasting.
In this case, there is only one problem that Hu Zhengming needs to determine, that is, the specific R&D direction of the R&D center.
"What are your considerations in terms of R&D direction?"
"I talked to Lao Ni about this, and I am very interested in the research and development of three directions. ”
"One is chips, including not only computer chips, but also application chips for mobile phones and communications, and even chips for machinery and electrical equipment. ”
"In this regard, as long as you come up with specific R&D projects and get my approval, I will fully support them. ”
"The second is the application technology of communication, especially the integration of computers and communications. ”
"Moreover, I think this part is the easiest to produce results, and once it produces results, it will feed back into the operation of the R&D center. ”
"The third is Internet technology and application. ”
"I dare to predict that in the next few years, the development and application of the Internet will be very rapid, so if possible, I hope that the R&D center will also make this area a research and development focus. ”
Chips, communications, and the Internet, this is the future of the IT industry.
In the R&D direction of the R&D center, Wu Xiaozheng, who has experience in his previous life, is not worried about problems in the direction.
Hu Zhengming fell into deep thought.
The three R&D directions mentioned by Wu Xiaozheng are very consistent with his ideas.
It made him extremely excited.
As a technologist in the field of microelectronics, what he lacks is a reliable investor and a strong company that can put the research and development results into application.
There is no doubt that Wu Xiaozheng is now the most suitable investor, he has both capital strength and strong business operation ability.
The most important thing is that he is also an investor in the mainland of the motherland.
Although Hu Zhengming is an American, he has Chinese blood in his bones, and naturally hopes that his research results can make the motherland stronger.
This is also the reason why he frequently comes to China to give lectures.
It was perfect!
But he also has something to worry about.
That is, he is only good at the field of microelectronics, and computer and converged communication, Internet technology and applications are not his expertise.
According to Ni Guangnan's proposal, it was suggested that he take on the important task of establishing and managing the American R&D center for Wu Xiaozheng.
This made him very nervous.
He didn't know if he would achieve Wu Xiaozheng's goal in the other two fields that he was not good at and not let him down.
After thinking about it, he finally said: "If Wu Dong believes me, after returning to the United States, I am willing to go all out to take the lead in preparing this R&D center." ”
Compared with the anxiety about the future, he feels that an opportunity to achieve his dream is more rare.
Wu Xiaozheng smiled with satisfaction.
This is a top-level expert that Ni Guangnan can still admire.
Now he has extended a cooperative hand to himself.
This means that your own layout on the computer side can finally be officially launched.
It's fun to think about.
The future does belong to computers and communications, and in his plan, there is now Ni Guangnan, a big name, in China, and Hu Zhengming, a top expert abroad, which means that his starting point is at a very high height.
Coupled with the experience he has in his previous life, it will be difficult for this future IT kingdom to fail.
"It was a pleasure to work with. ”
Wu Xiaozheng stretched out his right hand to Hu Zhengming.
