The early winter sun was very warm, shining warmly on people, the old man didn't answer, and Sun Ziming's heart began to go up and down again. As Hu Weiguo said, the biggest overall situation at present is to maintain a stable political situation, as long as no one makes trouble, give us 20 years of stable development, the rise of the nation is a sure thing.

Running a private university according to the model of a foreign country can at best accumulate experience for the restoration of academic freedom in the future; At worst, it can easily be exploited and become the position of some careerists. Fortunately, he never participated in politics, and only buried himself in making movies and running businesses to make money, otherwise there would be no room for negotiation in this matter.

The old man pondered for a while, then suddenly smiled and said jokingly, "Where did you get so much confidence? ”

I have been abroad for a long time and am used to going straight to the past, but Sun Ziming still understands this, and hurriedly said: "Old man, you have experienced the era of warlord melee, and you can still produce masters in turbulent times, but now? As long as I don't put a tight spell on my school, and let the scholars settle down and work hard for 50 years, it will definitely become a world-class famous school. ”

The courtyard was quiet, and the old man was silently smoking a cigarette, and the cigarette butt was extinguished.

Ever since Carrefour became a leader in the retail industry, everyone has been paying attention to those young people, especially the 'Veterans Mutual Aid Association' that has won the hearts of a bunch of old guys. But what everyone didn't expect was that in less than ten years, they had become a force that no one could underestimate. According to the intelligence services, it is not too much to say that they are rich compared to other countries, including their assets at home, in Russia, and in the United States.

What is rare is that they do not participate in politics, except for Sun Ziliang's close contacts with the old army, they keep a distance from all forces, and only bury themselves in enterprises and schools. Like such a force, the government can also rest assured that it cooperates with it, as this kid said, his ancestral grave is in Xiangxi.

After thinking for a while, the old man looked up at the sun, got up and said, "Oh, it's not early, let's eat." ”

Sun Ziming was stunned, and hurriedly followed behind, complimenting: "You are still broad-minded, how big your heart is, how big the stage is." People, always thinking about gains and losses, what can they do? ”

"Don't pat yourself on the back, I'll be a retired old man, and I won't be able to help you."

After a sumptuous lunch, Sun Ziming also said goodbye with interest, and left in the same car with Minister Huang and a middle-aged man surnamed Wu. Out of the cordon, Sun Zi Mingcai breathed a sigh of relief and completely relaxed, Minister Huang couldn't help but tease: "I really thought you were bold, but it turned out to be hard?" is worthy of making a movie, and his acting skills are good. ”

Sun Ziming would not admit it, and retorted: "You also underestimate me too much, and I made two preparations when I came." If you give the policy, I will run a school in the mainland; If I don't give it, I will donate it to Furen, Tamjiang, and Soochow in Taiwan. ”

Minister Huang hurriedly asked, "Didn't you force us the day before yesterday?" ”

For the old man, Sun Ziming has psychological pressure, but he doesn't have Minister Huang, he just talks nonsense when he opens his mouth, "No, I have contributed money and effort, and I haven't been pleased, and I am not allowed to vent my dissatisfaction?" Minister Huang, I won't hide it from you, if both you and Taiwan reject me, I will set up the university in Hong Kong and the New Territories, and at the same time recruit Chinese people from all over the world. ”

"You", Minister Huang's face is not very good-looking, what is the difference between this and forcing the palace?

Sun Ziming really doesn't care much about what the above thinks, his strength has reached this level, and he doesn't need to be too obedient.

"What's this? You rely on the power in your hands to forbid me this and that, and you don't allow me to criticize one or two? Besides, you must have an intelligence agency in Russia, and you should know how much money we make there. I heard my classmates say that they are going to give me more than 600 million yuan in dividends this year, plus my own company's dividends, seven or eight billion dollars a year. ”

Minister Huang pushed away Sun Ziming's hand handing over cigarettes, and said in a deep voice: "Ziming, you tell me the truth, you really want to invest your family property in the school, don't you take the opportunity to hoard land?" ”

They have never been involved in politics, maybe they are not too worried that they will be counter-revolutionary, but this may be what they are most worried about, Sun Ziming hehe, and said in a low voice: "I want the land, I want the school, and in the end, those properties are all schools." Know Stanford University? Now it has become the hottest place in the United States, relying on cheap land prices, so that young people can start a business at the lowest cost! ”

"Silicon Valley?"

Sun Ziming handed over the cigarette again and quipped: "Yo, Minister Huang really lives to old age and learns!" ”

Silicon Valley is a new term in China, and Minister Huang no longer pays attention to Sun Ziming's forced palace, but asks about the possibility of replicating the Stanford model in China. Because he wanted to take a ride on Internet companies to make money, Sun Ziming paid great attention to Stanford when he was in the United States, and now Minister Huang asked about it, and he also introduced it in detail.

Stanford University by Leland? Stanford was founded in memory of his son, who died of illness during his travels in Italy, and to set aside his 8,000-acre ranch farm as a school campus.

Stanford University's take-off was in the seventies, and I am afraid that it is due to the fact that Stanford has a vast area of more than 8,000 acres, and the school cannot use it up as much as it wants. In 1959, Turman, dean of the College of Engineering, came up with an idea that was the turning point for Stanford: to lease 1,000 acres to the business community or alumni for a long time at a very low, nominal rent, to set up companies, and then to work with the university to provide a variety of research projects and student internships.

In this way, Stanford became the first university in the United States to establish an industrial park on its campus. Thanks to the tremendous gains from the land, Stanford has placed itself at the forefront of the transformation of American technology into productivity, with one business opening after another in the industrial park. When the land needs of the enterprise exceeds the scope of what Stanford can provide, the enterprise spontaneously develops and expands outward, forming the Silicon Valley of California, which is a cutting-edge technology and elite.

Now Stanford University, surrounded by technology groups and enterprises, has become an entrepreneurial paradise for countless young people.

There was silence in the car for a while, and the middle-aged man surnamed Wu took a cigarette and took two puffs before asking: "Mr. Sun, according to what you said, to copy the Stanford model, you need dozens of square kilometers of land?" ”

Minister Huang hurriedly introduced: "This is Director Wu of the Political Research Office of the State Council, and the chief specially invited him over. The chief said: If you are engaged in economic business, you can provide useful opinions on macroeconomic policies. ”

Sun Ziming thought for a while and joked: "Director Wu, aren't you building Zhongguancun Science and Technology Park?" I'm willing to bet that there might be some good companies out there in the future, but it's definitely not going to be as successful as Silicon Valley. ”

"Why? Zhongguancun also has dozens of square kilometers of land, and there are also many colleges and universities next to it, and the price is relatively low. ”

Why? Silicon Valley relies on innovation, while Zhongguancun does replication, so Silicon Valley will give birth to great enterprises, while Zhongguancun can only come out of fairly good enterprises.

Looking at the traffic that began to increase outside, many of which were foreign license plates, Sun Ziming couldn't help but joke: "If you don't go to Beiping, you don't know that you are a small official." The power of creation will only be born in a free place, and in such an official-oriented place, how can there be free air? ”

Minister Huang coughed a few times, and Director Wu retorted: "We first need to solve existing problems, not innovative problems. ”

"Those who do not seek eternity are not enough to seek a time; Those who do not seek the overall situation are not enough to seek a domain! ”

These words are hard to hear, but when they come out of Sun Ziming's mouth, they are very convincing. Because this guy, in less than ten years, led a small gang to create an economic miracle, relying on long-term vision.

Director Wu's face changed, Sun Ziming didn't want to talk anymore, the bureaucrats always thought about their hats, and most of the time they opened their eyes and said nonsense.

After sending Sun Ziming back to his residence, Minister Huang suddenly asked Director Wu, "Old Wu, I don't understand economics, does this kid make sense?" ”

"Did you say the chief would draw a circle for him?"

"The chief is retired, so he won't take care of this."

Director Wu shook his head and signaled that Minister Huang was too cunning, but still replied: "We can only focus on the current problems, and the distant matters can only be decided by the leaders." From my personal opinion, Mr. Sun is right, a free academic atmosphere, sooner or later there will be world-class masters and achievements; It is true that science and technology are the primary productive forces, but science and technology are built on basic research, and our weakest position at present is basic research. ”

After a pause, Director Wu continued: "According to the current development trend, perhaps in ten years, imitation of this road will come to an end, and we will have to prepare for economic transformation. ”

Minister Huang smiled, and the No. 1 chief's think tank agreed, and the old chief would draw a circle for that kid nine times out of ten.

"Well, that makes sense. Hey, Lao Wu, this kid is going back to the United States the day after tomorrow, don't hurt others before leaving. ”

Director Wu smiled knowingly, Chief No. 1 will not see Sun Ziming, that guy can mix like a fish in water overseas, it is because he is insulated from the government. No matter how the country is reformed, it always gives the Western world an impression of autocracy, and now it is hard to come up with a guy they can accept, and the public image is good, and it can be faintly used as a national image propaganda, and it is too late to maintain it, how can it harm him?
