Chapter 390: Deng Liang's mentor
readx; Shi Lei later learned that Han Xiaoyuan's bandit number in Unicom was actually "extinct", and the workaholic and unpretentious to anyone made many aspiring young men in Unicom who wanted to pursue her go home. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info and later the North China Branch of the Stone Group was also called the Emei faction by some people, which is still taken from the meaning of exterminating the master, generally speaking, it shows how impersonal Han Xiaoyuan is in his work.
Han Xiaoyuan lingered in Wudong for a few more days, and finally Shi Lei asked her to make an appearance at the group headquarters, and returned to Pingjing before New Year's Day with a few professional managers who were ready to be transferred to the North China branch to take up positions.
According to her own meaning, she wanted to stay with Shi Lei to welcome the new millennium, but one was that the preparatory work for the North China branch must now be presided over by someone to preside over the overall situation, and the other was that Shi Lei promised Shen Yi to go to Queensland to welcome the new millennium with her, and Han Xiaoyuan had to go back to Pingjing with a little regret.
The new millennium does not seem to be much different from the past for Shi Lei, although all the businesses and even the media are making a big fuss about the new millennium, and the stone group itself has also made many commercial measures in this regard, but as far as Shi Lei is concerned, this is just an ordinary day after his rebirth that does not coincide with the experience of that life. What he has to consider now is the professor named Xu Kejia and what kind of extent he has come in designing systems based on the Linux kernel.
After the New Year's Day holiday, the first snow of the new millennium fell in Wudong, and the entire campus of Wu University was covered with snow, covered in silver.
Shi Lei walked through the entire campus, stood outside the school gate closest to Gulou Park in Wu University, looked at the small building standing outside the courtyard wall of the school, and felt a little apprehensive, and he didn't dare to knock on the door easily. This kind of uncertain state of mind, Shi Lei has not experienced for a long time.
Standing in the snow and smoking a cigarette, Shi Lei was still a little hesitant, he knew very well that the system developed by Xu Kejia must be written into the integrated circuit group, which belongs to the concept of firmware. This is a very important supplement to the stone group, which already has considerable strength in the research and development of integrated circuits.
In integrated circuits, it is usually necessary to write some pre-programmed programs, the difference is that the previous integrated circuits are fixed writes, which cannot be read and re-written by programmers afterwards, including semi-customized application-specific integrated circuits, at most only reserved space for continued writing, and the written programs cannot be changed. Although there were also completely erasable programming logic units that could be completely rewritten, the disadvantage of the low number of circuits made this kind of rewriteable integrated circuit almost unmarketable.
However, Shi Lei knows very well that this phenomenon will change in a few years. The application scope and technical means of semi-customized ASIC are getting stronger and stronger, and the huge integrated circuit group formed has been able to easily realize the erasable and upgrade requirements of firmware. In the future, there will be a large number of digital products, all of which can be reprogrammed into the firmware, which also realizes the upgrade of the firmware system.
At present, at the Luohu R&D Center, the development team called Lanqi Technology led by Hou Hengzhi has developed many patents in integrated circuits, but their biggest shortcoming has always been the combination of software and hardware system writing technology. Although this will not have much impact on the stone group's attempt to join the 3G technology development camp - in fact, the stone group has begun to integrate into the ranks of many high-tech enterprises formulated by the Ministry of Information Industry and the State Information Office for 3G technology standards through the dual influence of China Unicom and itself.
However, this does not satisfy Shi Lei, the formulation of 3G technical standards does not mean that the participating enterprises can profit from it, let alone obtain great benefits, which must be combined with 3G technical standards to produce their own unique product technology, in other words, to know how to turn 3G technology into their own products. Obviously, at this point, the stone group is still doing very badly, and Shi Lei does not want to follow the old path of Huawei and other companies in that life, only around the 3G technology to produce routing and switching network products, although this can bring a technical monopoly position to the enterprise, but can not maximize the benefits. Otherwise, Huawei's position as the world's largest market share in that lifetime would not be as profitable as many companies with much smaller scale and market share. From the perspective of future market profit distribution, Shi Lei knows better that the biggest profit will always come from terminal products. Even if we don't look at the future in the future, just looking at the current situation of the world's IT industry, we can actually draw the same judgment. Isn't Microsoft, as a provider of terminal systems, more profitable than those older technology companies? The largest market is always in the end market, especially the individual end market.
Therefore, the news that Dai Xiaochuan brought to him this time is particularly important, if the professor named Xu Kejia developed this may not be perfect The working system is really as Shi Lei expects, at least with the possibility of sustainable development and upgrading, then this is equivalent to helping Shi Lei to make an almost perfect reinforcement on the biggest shortcoming of Stone Group's technology. Of course, for Shi Lei, the most important thing is time. When there are few companies on this earth that have thought of this direction, Shi Lei must have a lot of benefits if he takes the first step. After all, there is a considerable gap between the domestic technology in this area and the international leading level. Shi Lei needs more time to make up for it, and the appearance of such a team in advance, a team that has future ideas even before Shi Lei, is exactly what Shi Lei needs.
Just when Shi Lei was still struggling with whether he should go up and knock on the door, he suddenly heard a voice that seemed somewhat familiar: "Shi Lei? Since you're in school, why don't you go to class? ”
Shi Lei raised his head suddenly, threw away the cigarette in his hand, and the person he saw in front of him was actually the thin counselor Deng Liang, who was as thin as a hemp rod, twenty-six or seventeen-year-old but still full of pimples.
"Uh...... Mr. Deng...... I don't have classes at this point. ”
Deng Liang is just a counselor, although he is also a technician, but it is impossible to remember whether Shi Lei's class has a class at this time.
"Then what are you doing here?" Deng Liang seemed to feel a little unhappy when he saw Shi Lei, he was just the first time to lead the class as a counselor, and there was a second generation of officials like Shi Lei in the class, this class is to come and leave if you want to come, but the leaders of the hospital also specially greeted Deng Liang and all the teachers for him, saying that Shi Lei doesn't have to care, as long as he can pass the final exam normally, don't consider his usual performance and attendance rate. There will always be one or two such situations in the school every year, but it will always be very unpleasant when it falls on oneself.
"Shi Lei, I know that your family has a deep background, and you probably don't need to worry about your future, probably your family has already arranged all the roads for you after graduation. However, in any case, you are still a student, and even if you can always pass the exam easily, it does not mean that you have really learned. You should still take this lesson. It's not much fun to be idle all day long, right? ”
In the face of Deng Liang's bitter words, Shi Lei actually didn't have even the slightest bit of heart to listen, at most he made some humble attitude on his face, and when he occasionally met Deng Liang in the past, Shi Lei did exactly that. But today Shi Lei didn't even do it with such an attitude, he was just thinking about a question, Deng Liang also came here, after all, this place is out of the scope of Wu University in terms of geographical location, so, is the teacher he is looking for Xu Kejia?
Deng Liang is still chattering, this young technical house has some potential of Tang Seng, in fact, maybe all houses have such a trait, usually no one talks to them, so if there is a chance to speak, it will immediately become a chatter.
Shi Lei took advantage of his speech to interject: "Teacher Deng, is your graduate supervisor named Xu Kejia?" ”
Deng Liang was interrupted, more or less displeased, but when he heard Shi Lei's words, he was also stunned. Xu Kejia is actually not well-known in Wu University, as a professor and master supervisor of computer science, but he is obsessed with the chip design and system development of the shortest board in the domestic computer industry, rather than other professors, regardless of his original major on that channel, but he is engaged in software development with students. Because of this, the professors of other computer science departments are very rich, but Xu Kejia often argues with the school leaders over tens of thousands of research and development funds. Even this single-family house, if it weren't for Tsui Kejia, a graduate student who went to the United States to study for a doctorate in his early years, and is now the CEO of a listed company in Silicon Valley, he would allocate a donation to the school every year, and his request was to leave this building to Tsui Kejia as a laboratory, I am afraid he would not have been able to persist now. Fortunately, because of that student, otherwise Wu University would never have rehired this stubborn old professor, but based on the fact that Xu Kejia is no longer in the school, the school will definitely lose donations from that student, and the school can only pay him tens of thousands of salaries every year to rehire him to bring back graduate students.
In this context, Xu Kejia is actually relatively unknown in the school, and there are only a few graduate students who apply for his name every year, and basically they are all students who are admitted from the Department of Physics or the Department of Mathematics just to get a graduate certificate in computer science. So over the years, Xu Kejia's research and development has been difficult.
Because of this, Shi Lei suddenly reported Xu Kejia's name, which made Deng Liang a little surprised.
The technical nerd just has some problems with emotional intelligence, and his IQ is often superior, Deng Liang thought that Shi Lei would stay here, and realized that Shi Lei might be looking for Xu Kejia.
"How did you know about Professor Xu?"
Of course, Shi Lei would not know that Xu Kejia was so unknown at Wu University, and in his opinion, professors in this direction should be hot and popular. This is also Shi Lei's misunderstanding, he just knows that Xu Kejia's research direction is the real trend in the future, but ignores that this research direction is not the mainstream in this era, but the direction that no one wants to engage in, not to mention that this is China, whose technology in this area is far behind the international level.
"Our professor in the School of Computer Science, it's difficult to think about it......" Of course, Shi Lei would not have said his purpose at the beginning, and he could also judge from Dai Xiaochuan's experience, this Xu Kejia, I'm afraid he is an old guy with a rather eccentric temper, at least it's not easy to deal with, otherwise Dai Xiaochuan wouldn't have been closed door frequently, and he wouldn't even have the opportunity to meet Xu Kejia. Shi Lei was afraid that he would tell his purpose as soon as he came, and he would make Xu Kejia do the same as Dai Xiaochuan and turn him away.
Deng Liang frowned, and said in a categorical tone: "You are lying!" Immediately, he seemed to remember Dai Xiaochuan, who often came to knock on the door some time ago, but was stingy by Xu Kejia even when he met him, Deng Liang said suspiciously: "You won't be the person Dai Xiaochuan found, right?" "Thinking of Shi Lei's background as the second generation of officials, although he is far from Dai Xiaochuan's father, but with Deng Liang's technical nerd, as long as officials are involved, where can he figure out that officials in two different places basically can't deal with each other for the rest of his life?
Shi Lei was also shocked when he heard this, he didn't expect Deng Liang to think of Dai Xiaochuan so quickly, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, especially after Deng Liang said the sentence "You are lying" so resolutely.
Seeing Shi Lei's hesitant performance, Deng Liang's IQ could obviously give him a more logical judgment, and he said: "If you are also playing Professor Xu's technical idea, I advise you to give up as soon as possible." If you want to help Dai Xiaochuan as a lobbyist, it is better to leave quickly, Professor Xu of the province will personally come out with a broom to drive you away in a while. ”
Seeing that Shi Lei still didn't speak, Deng Liang sighed again and said: "Although Professor Xu's technology has applied for a patent, he himself is very dissatisfied and feels that there are still too many imperfections. The system has many vulnerabilities and is not suitable for product development on the market at all. I advise you to die of this heart...... I'm telling you this because you're my student and seem to have a good understanding of computers. ”
Seeing Deng Liang say this, Shi Lei smiled instead: "Teacher Deng, can we talk alone." I don't deny that the reason why I came here today is indeed the news I got from Dai Xiaochuan. However, I didn't act as a lobbyist for Dai Xiaochuan, and I didn't think about asking Professor Xu to take out the imperfect technology and put it on the market. I don't know if Mr. Deng would like to talk to me, but I thought maybe I could give your mentor something he lacked the most......"
Deng Liang was a little impatient, waved his hand and said: "The professor is short of money, but Dai Xiaochuan is not the only one who is willing to give him money, and they are all closed without exception." What's more, how much money can you have as a student who hasn't graduated from college yet. Okay, I'm still doing research with the professor today, so I'm not going to talk nonsense with you. Let's go! ”
Looking at the back of Deng Liang walking directly towards the house, Shi Lei said slowly: "Stone Group, more than 100 million R&D funds, do not interfere with the research direction, and the technology is not mature and does not require it to be put on the market......"
Four words that are not too related, but they successfully stopped Deng Liang.
With his IQ, it is impossible not to hear the correlation between these four words, Shi Lei is clearly saying that the Stone Group is willing to invest more than 100 million funds in them, and will not rudely interfere with their research direction or even force them to come up with technology to put on the market. However, Deng Liang couldn't understand why Shi Lei could say such a thing.
Seeing Deng Liang slowly turn around, Shi Lei said with a smile: "I'll add one more, in addition to your identity as a student, I have another identity, the first shareholder of the Stone Group." Of course, it's probably hard for you to believe me when I say this, so if you delay for twenty minutes, Mr. Deng can go with me to the headquarters of the Stone Group. When I get there, I guess I don't need to prove my identity. ”
Seeing Shi Lei's confident performance, Deng Liang actually believed in his identity, but this still couldn't hide Deng Liang's shock. One of his students, who had barely attended classes, was the largest shareholder of the Stone Group, which was no different from the gods in the myth who suddenly appeared in front of him and told him that he could fulfill his three wishes.
But Deng Liang is also a person who is extremely clear about priorities, he knows that the conversation between himself and Shi Lei is not focused on these questions, after all, the only thing that attracts Deng Liang is the four words he said, and as for all the questions arising from the relationship between Shi Lei and the Stone Group, if those four words cannot be satisfied, in fact, it doesn't matter to Deng Liang at all. Therefore, the question that Deng Liang most urgently wants to answer now is that if Shi Lei can really realize these four words, then what is the significance of his investment. Or rather, where is the value of the investment. Deng Liang didn't believe that anyone was willing to pay a lot of money to let them toss around.
"Okay, regardless of your other questions, tell me first, if you don't interfere with our R&D direction, and don't force us to put the technology on the market, then, what is the purpose of your investment? Or, in case we are forever dissatisfied with the results of our development, how do you recoup your investment? ”
Shi Lei replied with a smile: "This needs to be coordinated, I meet all your needs, and you are also conducting research and development in the same direction according to my design." I don't believe that you will never be satisfied with the results of the R&D, and there are many stage technologies in which our group will commercialize the R&D of these stage technologies. ”
Hearing this, Deng Liang finally nodded in agreement: "Okay, then now, you need to be responsible for solving my questions that have nothing to do with technology." ”
