Hangzhou, Ali headquarters, chairman's office!

"What?" Ma Dong said in surprise: "Ye Fei wants to engage in blockchain? ”

The CIO (Chief Information Officer) nodded and said, "Yes, according to reliable sources, Ye Fei has set up a blockchain laboratory in Zhonghu University, and he asked many people to pull people into his laboratory. ”

Ma Dong asked: "How much money is allocated to him from above?" ”

"Ten million!"

"Ten million?" Ma Dong said in surprise: "What can 10 million do, 10 million may not even be able to make a splash, can't Ye Fei apply for more, at least 1 billion!" ”

One billion is less in Ma Dong's view, and Ali's investment in the blockchain has reached 13 billion, and it is increasing investment every year.

And Ali is only a private company, even if this private company is one of the leading domestic technology companies.

But Ye Fei's research is on behalf of the country, and only 10 million is allocated above, which is too little in Ma Dong's opinion, and at least more than one billion is needed to engage in blockchain.

Ma Dong said: "You go and ask Ye Fei to see if he needs to invest, I can invest one billion in him." ”

Ma Dong is very optimistic about Ye Fei, and judging from Ye Fei's ability, one billion investment will make a steady profit.

The CIO said, "Okay, I'll go back and ask." ”

Ma Dong said: "Since Ye Fei has established a laboratory at Zhonghu University and started to study blockchain, in this way, Ye Fei will not leave Zhonghu University for the time being." ”

"I guess that's how it should be!" CIO said.

Ma Dong asked, "What does Korn Ferry say?" ”

CIO said: "I also asked the HR side, and they are also following up, during this time, the people of Korn Ferry International have contacted Ye Fei many times and tried to poach him, but they have not succeeded." ”

"But the last time at the global blockchain academic conference, people from Korn Ferry communicated with Ye Fei for a long time, and Ye Fei seemed to be intended, but then I don't know why, Ye Fei has no news again."

"Hmm!" Ma Dong nodded and said: "It's very normal that talents like Ye Fei are difficult to dig. ”

"We have to be calm, we can't be in a hurry, so as not to make Ye Fei angry."

"If buying and selling is not benevolent, even if Ye Fei doesn't come to Ali, we can't make him angry."

"Maybe there will be a place to cooperate with him in the future."

"You convey this message to HR, and let HR convey this statement to Korn Ferry."

"Okay, Ma Dong!" CIO said.

After the CIO left, Ma Dong's eyes flashed, and he said in his heart: "Ye Fei wants to study blockchain, it seems that the international blockchain market is going to rise again." ”

Ma Dong has seen Ye Fei's speech at the global blockchain academic conference.

Since Ye Fei can give a very forward-looking speech on blockchain, Ye Fei must have some research on blockchain.

Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to give a speech like that.

And, looking at Ye Fei's growth history, Ma Dong concluded that Ye Fei will definitely be able to make some achievements in the field of blockchain.

"The company needs to make some layout in the blockchain field."

What Ma Dong can see, many people around the world can also see.

For example, Apple, Google, Cisco, Yahoo, Alibaba, JD.com, Toutiao, Mobike, Eleme......

Most of the world's well-known Internet companies, Sequoia Capital has invested.

Technology Investment Department, Conference Room!

Three groups of people are meeting in the conference room!

There are a total of five people in the conference room, one team leader and four team members.

A member of the team is explaining in PPT.

"Ye Fei, male, born in 2001, from Jinling, was admitted to Zhonghu University in 2018, studied for graduate studies at Zhonghu University in 2022, studied for a doctorate at Zhonghu University in 2023, and graduated with a doctorate in 2024."

"The world's mathematical puzzle will be proved in 2024, Hilbert's first problem, the continuum hypothesis."

"In the same year, mathematical algorithms were created."

"In 2025, we will help Guoyu Technology Company and Honghui Medical Device Company to develop two world-class medical devices."

"In 2026, the future development and research direction of blockchain will be proposed at the global blockchain academic conference.

In the same year, the world's highest level of A2 safety system was developed.

Whether it was the person who said it or the person who listened, it was shocking.

Ye Fei's development speed is too fast, it is simply inhuman.

They have also been in contact with many scientific research experts, but none of them have developed at the speed of Ye Fei.

"This person can't be a prophet, he is born to know, and a lot of knowledge automatically appears in his head." Many people wondered, "Otherwise, why is the research so fast?" ”

The team member said: "Ye Fei studied cryptography at the Information Resources Research Center of Chang'an University of Electronic Technology, and it was at that time that he came into contact with blockchain. ”

"Based on Ye Fei's research speed, we can see that his learning speed is very fast, and judging from his performance at the global blockchain academic conference, he will definitely have results if he studies blockchain."

"Therefore, investing in Ye Fei's blockchain, the ROI is 35%."

ROI is the meaning of return on investment.

Each investment is preceded by a calculation based on the investee's ability and the value of the investee.

Generally, as long as the ROI reaches 8%, it can protect the principal, more than 20% is a high-quality investment, and 30% is very high-quality.

Through the calculation of ROI, Ye Fei's blockchain is a very high-quality investment.

That is to say, as long as you invest, it is almost impossible to lose, and you will definitely make money, and it is a big profit.

Unless there are some uncontrollable factors.

For example, with the change of policy, the blockchain suddenly changed from a sunrise industry to a sunset industry.

But with the popularity of blockchain at this stage, this probability is only 0.001%.

That is, it is almost unlikely.

The group member said, "My speech is over! ”

The team leader said: "Okay, from the current point of view, investing in Ye Fei's blockchain is a project that is profitable and profitable. ”

"If you invest in Ye Fei's project, we can collect money when the project research is over."

"Even the money you make, it doesn't matter if you don't open for a few years."

Blockchain is a product of the computer field, and the product of computer is profitable, which is something that everyone knows.

In the field of computing, blockchain is a profiteering within a profiteering.

Cryptocurrencies, for example, are developed based on blockchain.

It is very common for many people around the world to reach billions in a short period of time because of cryptocurrencies.

"But the problem at this stage is that if we find this project, other venture capital firms must also find this project. ”

"So, we have to win this project as soon as possible."

"The above only allocated 10 million to Ye Fei, he must be short of money, so if we want to invest in him, he should be very willing."

Venture capital is divided into the other party's automatic door-to-door investment and the venture capital company's automatic door-to-door investment.

Good projects don't worry about no investment.

In general, most of the door-to-door investment projects are not good projects.

Therefore, whenever a good project is found on the market, the venture capital company will automatically come to the door to invest.

Ye Fei is a person that many venture capital companies have been paying attention to for a long time, and Sequoia Capital is one of them.

When I heard that Ye Fei was researching blockchain, many venture capital companies were like cats that smelled fishy and wanted to lick it.

With Ye Fei's ability, his research on blockchain will definitely produce results.

Moreover, as long as the blockchain has a little bit of results, it can make a lot of money.

Such a good project, of course, venture capital companies want to invest.

A team member said suspiciously: "But team leader, why did the above only give Ye Fei 10 million scientific research funds?" ”

This is also where many people wonder, what can 10 million research blockchains do?

Such a small amount of money is not enough to even plug between the teeth.

Not to mention that the state has no money, this is an impossible thing.

If Xia Guo has no money, any country in the world will have no money.

Could it be that Ye Fei only applied for 10 million scientific research funds from above?

It can't be!

Ye Fei is not a fool, he only applied for 10 million scientific research funds, how many days can he support?

The team member continued: "One billion may not be able to apply for Ye Fei, but one or two hundred million should be able to apply for it, but it is only given 10 million. ”

"Could it be that there is a problem with Ye Fei's research direction, so that the above cannot see the hope of success, so the above only gives 10 million?"

The team leader shook his head and said: "It shouldn't be, with Ye Fei's ability, the success rate of researching blockchain should be quite high." ”

"Besides, just with Ye Fei, he applied for scientific research funds, and it was more than 10 million!"

Everyone nodded their heads in agreement with the group leader's statement.

Also, with Ye Fei's ability, there are more than 10 million, and 100 million is considered low.

But they would never have imagined that this 10 million was applied for by Ye Fei on his own initiative, not by the price reduction above.

Ye Fei only does theoretical research, and theoretical research costs much less than applied research.

Ye Fei plans to wait until the results of theoretical research are produced before doing applied research.

And when it comes to research and application, Ye Fei will not only use such a little money and so many people.

When the time comes, Ye Fei will bring a few academicians in.

After all, such an important applied research cannot be accomplished by him alone.

And when the time comes, it is not Ye Fei who will apply for scientific research funds, but the state that will send the money in.

One billion is not enough, ten billion.

As long as you have the ability, money is not an issue.

In the Xia Kingdom, the most important thing is money.

The team leader said: "Don't think about this problem, our current problem is how to invest in Ye Fei's blockchain research." ”

"We're going to get into this project before we get to other companies."

Next, they talked for a long time about how they could invest in Ye Fei's blockchain research.

Middle Lake University!

Ye Fei hung up the phone speechlessly, in the past two days, he felt as if he had been targeted by the venture capital circle, all of them were to invest in his projects and give him money.

Ye Fei thought it was a scam call at first.

How can there be a pie in the sky, and a good thing to give yourself money for no reason.

But later, Ye Fei received dozens of similar calls, and he was confused.

"Am I being targeted by a fraud gang?"

Then, a few hours earlier, the principal approached him and said that Sequoia Capital was going to invest in his project.

Only then did Ye Fei know that he was not targeted by a fraud gang, but by a venture capital gang.

But where does Ye Fei want to invest, if he wants to invest, he can bring hundreds of millions.

If you don't want money from above, can the company he helped before get money?

Besides, look at what kind of companies are going to invest in him!

Most of them are foreign-owned companies.

Ye Fei's brain was pumped, so he asked these companies to invest in his project.

His project must be a sure success, and if you invest in these companies, don't you send them money!

Ye Feixin said: "Although the employees of these venture capital companies are all from Xia Guo, who let the founders of these companies be foreigners!" ”

"It can't be said that you hate foreigners, but you don't want to give money to foreigners."

"Whoever you do business with is doing business, why not choose Xia Guoren!"

"Of course, I'm not short of money, and I certainly don't want to be invested."

"A good national project needs private investment, what is it!"

"Xia Guo is not short of money."

"Even if the above doesn't give money, I still have more than 100 million, if I go to the bank for a loan, I can borrow hundreds of millions!"

"When the time comes, I'll invest in myself."

"I see that money is not earned, but it is earned for you, am I not a fool!"

Ye Fei and the three students walked towards a teaching building.

He is looking for researchers for the Blockchain Lab today.

The school arranged 20 scientific researchers for Ye Fei, but Ye Fei had to recruit more than 40 people, plus 12 people from the number theory group.

Ye Fei needed a total of more than 70 scientific researchers.

So, he used the two classrooms on the third floor of the building as a recruiting venue.

And the three students, Ye Fei gave each of them two hundred, and called them to help him.

When he walked to the third floor, Ye Feiren had not yet arrived, and he heard a bustling sound at the staircase, as noisy as a vegetable market.

Ye Fei was surprised: "There are a lot of people!" ”

As he spoke, as soon as Ye Fei walked out of the staircase, he saw that the corridor was full of people.

Ye Fei walked to the edge of the classroom and looked in through the window, the classroom was also full of people, and there were many people standing in the corridor.

Ye Fei said: "There are more than 200 people here!" ”

Ye Fei shook his head and said: "It's really too much, I only recruited more than forty people, but more than two hundred came." ”

When Ye Fei released the news, he clearly stated that the academic qualification must be a doctorate in mathematics or computer science, proficient in number theory, algorithms, big data, cloud computing, blockchain and other any of the above knowledge.

That's very demanding.

But even so, so many people came.

Ye Fei shook his head in his heart and sighed: "I can only say that there are many talents and few positions in Xia Guo, and the involution is too serious." ”

In fact, where is the involution too serious, but because many people have heard that Ye Fei wants to study the blockchain, everyone thinks that following Ye Fei's research on the blockchain will definitely produce results.

That's why I came to apply.

If it were someone else, they wouldn't necessarily go.

Ye Fei walked into the first row of seats in a classroom and sat down, and said to the three students, "Let's start!" ”

The three students walked out and walked into the hallway, and one of them held the list and shouted, "Bao Zhengmin, is Bao Zhengmin here?" ”

A man in his thirties, wearing glasses, waved his hand in the crowd and said, "Hey, here we are!" ”

As he spoke, he squeezed out of the crowd.

Another student said, "Come with me!" ”

Under the leadership of the students, they entered the classroom where Ye Fei was.

Ye Fei saw the person who walked in, and said with a smile: "Please sit!" ”

Bao Zhengmin put the copy of the degree certificate and resume in his hand in front of Ye Fei, and said, "Hello Professor Ye!" ”

Only then sit down.

Ye Fei nodded and said, "Hello." ”

Then Ye Fei began to look at the information in his hand.

Bao Zhengmin, male, 31 years old, graduated from Jiangcheng University with a doctorate degree in computer science.

During his Ph.D., he did research on SRA algorithm, time-frequency synchronization algorithm for NG-DSL system, participatory medium algorithm based on fast k-nearest neighbor, and photon mapping algorithm based on fast k-nearest neighbor. ”

Ye Fei said: "Let's talk about the basic principle of OFDM technology. ”

Bao Zhengmin said: "In the data transmission system, a multi-carrier parallel system is DFDM, and the high-speed serial ...... of this communication technology is used."

Ye Feidao: "What is the synchronization algorithm based on the minimum energy difference?" ”

Bao Zhengmin said: "The disadvantage of non-data-assisted symbolic timing synchronization algorithm is that it ...... loop"

Ye Fei asked seven or eight questions in a row, and Bao Zhengmin answered them very well.

Ye Fei said: "Okay, you can go back and wait for news." ”

This is only the first applicant, Ye Fei needs to choose the best thirty or so from all the applicants.

Therefore, he finally told every applicant, go back and wait for news.

Ye Fei spent a whole day interviewing everyone.

At about ten o'clock in the evening of the same day, Ye Fei was in the study at home.

Ye Fei put the information of all the applicants in front of him and checked forty-two people, and Bao Zhengmin was one of them.

The next day, Ye Fei sent a message to everyone according to the people he had selected, informing them that the interview was successful, and he would report to the blockchain laboratory of Zhonghu University at 8 o'clock in the morning next Monday.

Ye Feixin said: "Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed!" ”
