Chapter 301: I Don't Agree
"Incorporate your open source community into the AI Lab, so that I can get the bandwidth resources you want in the school in the name of the lab, and even allocate a certain amount of activity funds to you in the name of the lab." Yang Jingchen said.
Xiao Yuan and Duan Yanyue glanced at each other, and then turned their eyes to Yang Jingchen, both of them were a little surprised by her proposal.
Duan Yanyue did not express any opinions, but gave the decision to Xiao Yuan, after all, Xiao Yuan was the leader of this project, and Yang Jingchen was his mother.
"I don't agree with that." Xiao Yuan rejected Yang Jingchen's suggestion very decisively.
"In this way, you can get the support of the school through the AI lab, and the lab can also use your platform to do some of its own things in the future, which is a win-win thing, so what's not bad?" Yang Jingchen was also a little surprised by Xiao Yuan's refusal, so he asked.
"Mom, you still don't understand my original intention of creating this open source community." Xiao Yuan said.
"What is your original intention, let Mom hear about it?" Yang Jingchen asked.
"My purpose is to build a paradise of completely free hackers, whose existence should be completely independent, not to become a vassal of a certain organization, which is why I want to spin it off from the Genne Corporation, although the Genne Corporation is also mine, but I still don't want to see it be governed by the Genne Corporation in the future because of some commercial interests, and similarly, I don't want this community to be subject to the lab's development after being merged into your lab." Xiao Yuan said.
"That's the reason.,But your idea mom thinks it's a bit extreme.,The pursuit of freedom is good.,It's also very valuable.,But freedom should be the upper limit.,It's the goal of pursuit.,Not the bottom limit.,Your open source community hasn't been established yet.,Even if it's established.,It's only in the start-up stage.,Before it really grows up,It's also essential to make some compromises appropriately.,What's more, Mom just incorporated it into the laboratory.,But from management to operation,It's still up to you.,That is, Mom will try her best to ensure the independence of your organization, isn't that okay? Yang Jingchen said.
"Mom, I believe you are telling the truth, you also really want to help us, but have you ever thought about it, the artificial intelligence laboratory is still subject to the jurisdiction of the school, in this sense, once we are included in the laboratory, it will become an organization of Jiang University, and some clubs of the school, such as the Computer Association, are not much different in nature, although under normal circumstances, the school will not interfere with us, but at some specific times, it is impossible for the school not to intervene, and I can't help but prevent this from happening." Xiao Yuan said again.
"Why don't you think about it from a different angle, if you include the open source community in the laboratory, in the future, if there is a conflict of interest with the school, the laboratory can also provide you with maximum protection, and even help you mediate with the school." Yang Jingchen said again.
"Mom, you don't have to persuade me, merge the open source community into the lab, I will never agree." Xiao Yuan still insisted on his opinion.
"Actually, I have a compromise, I don't know if it's feasible?" Duan Yanyue saw that Xiao Yuan's mother and son had an argument, so she interjected.
"What a compromise, you can tell me." Xiao Yuan asked.
"Professor Yang, you just said that we are merged into your lab, and you can give us bandwidth in the name of the lab, and you mean that you want to use our platform to do something for the lab in the future, so can we position the open source community and your lab as a partnership, instead of incorporating it into the lab as you just said?" Duan Yanyue said.
"It's okay to do this, I can also help you get the bandwidth resources you want, and I'm afraid you won't have financial support if you want it." Yang Jingchen said.
"Then in the form of a partner, but an agreement must be signed, the independence of the open source community must be guaranteed, Mom, from a personal point of view, you are my mother, I absolutely trust, but the laboratory is not your personal after all, we want to cooperate with the laboratory, we can't just stay at the verbal agreement, I hope you can understand." Xiao Yuan said.
"Public is public and private is private, Mom can still distinguish this clearly, you don't have to worry about this, but your child's personality must also be changed, you can't always be like your father, always like to admit death." Yang Jingchen smiled and said.
"As long as it's not against my principles, I can compromise, except for the thing just now, no, in fact, I understand, even if we have a partnership with your lab, but because we use the bandwidth of the school, and it is mainly operated in the school in the early stage, the school still has many means to govern us, this is an objective fact, I can't change it, but I must do my best for the independence of the open source community, as you said, freedom should be the upper limit, and in some cases compromises must be made, That's my compromise. Xiao Yuan said.
"Xiaoyuan, where did you get the funds to create an open source community, I just heard what you meant, the open source community is going to be independent from Xuanne, I'm afraid you don't plan to use Xuanne's money, right?" Yang Jingchen asked.
"Yes, I'll explain that." Duan Yanyue took over the conversation and said, "Although the name Xuanne is used by Xuanne, the Xuanni open source community is operated independently, and financially, it will also be completely independent from Xuanni Company. ”
"But in that case, you still lack a certain amount of liquidity, if you want to make your business bigger, I'm afraid it is far from enough, not to mention that you still have to deploy servers in the school, where do these funds come from?" Yang Jingchen asked again.
"Xiao Yuan said that he will find a way to fund the funds, and in addition, I also have some savings that can be taken out and used." Duan Yanyue said.
"Xiaoyuan, where did you get the money? It's not going to beat the idea of the nine million that your father entrusted me to keep for you before he left, right? If you need it, I can give you some of it first, but I can't give it all to you, this is what your father has explained. Yang Jingchen asked.
"You still keep the nine million for me, I have money, and I can't use the nine million." Xiao Yuan said.
"Where did you get the money?" Yang Jingchen asked, without waiting for Xiao Yuan to answer, and said a little abruptly, "By the way, my mother forgot, Xuanne Company is also yours." ”
Xiao Yuan smiled, without explaining, Xuanne Company is also in the entrepreneurial period, and the funds are not abundant, he does not plan to take money from there and invest in the open source community, what he is going to use is the money that Tang Sa won from Gu Xiaodong, with this money, he also has a little bad taste, every time he thinks of using the enemy's money to do his own business, he will feel a burst of comfort in his heart.
Speaking of which, the matter has basically been decided, and the next step is to put it into action and implement it step by step.
Duan Yanyue continued to improve the plan, thinking about and designing the operation of the community in the future, and preparing for the real operation of the open source community.
Xiao Yuan's task is to adjust the existing forum system of Xuanne, and more importantly, he wants to make a set of ideal Linux distributions according to his own ideas, which will be the most important core product in the early stage of the construction of Xuanne's open source community.
Yang Jingchen promised Xiao Yuan and Duan Yanyue to implement the education network bandwidth for them as soon as possible.
At this time, it was almost dark, Xiao Yuan wanted to leave Duan Yanyue at home for dinner, but she politely refused, seeing that she refused, Xiao Yuan did not force her anymore, and personally sent her away, and when he returned home, Yang Jingchen had doubts about the relationship between him and Duan Yanyue, which made him cry and laugh a little.
"Mom, how can you think so, I haven't figured out how to deal with the matter of Sister Sa and Xia Jiuying yet, where do you dare to provoke other girls?"
"It's good to know, you have to deal with Tang Sa and Xia Jiuying's affairs as soon as possible, this kind of thing can't be delayed, the longer it drags on, the more troublesome it will be." Yang Jingchen said.
"Mom, in fact, I'm more anxious than you, if I can deal with it immediately, I will never delay for a minute longer, but dealing with this kind of thing itself is more troublesome, and it also takes a process, forget it, don't talk about it, I'll go back to the house, and when I eat in a while, call me."
After Xiao Yuan finished speaking, he went upstairs.
Back in the room, Xiao Yuan took out the plan book about the search engine that Tang Xinyu gave him, opened it and read it.
