Chapter 312: Abstract Performance Art in an Absurd World

It can only be said that the generation gap is really too big.

When the older generation is still thinking about winning the award to refresh the record of the youngest winner, the new generation of the post-00s generation is already thinking about how to get compensation from the other side.

And do they care about bonuses? What they care about is medals and honors!

Although the prize of one million dollars is a lot, this number is really not big enough to make these bigwigs feel pity.

Not to mention that no matter how much the bonus is, it is also for Qiao Ze personally, do they need to care?

Who in the circle doesn't know that Qiao Ze is now a rich man?

The two sides of the crowd intelligence system and the promising framework have never announced the details, so everyone is not sure how much Qiao Ze can earn. But on the licensing side of the material model, the licensing fee to Qiao Ze is paid on time every month, which is semi-public.

Not to mention that there is also a Xilin Licheng Technology, which is controlled by Qiao Ze and 90%, is crazy about attracting money in Xilin.

In short, money is not a problem for Qiao Ze at all, and even if the two of them can come up with five billion at one time to make Qiao Ze Natural Science Fund, no one is surprised.

But when it comes to reparations, everyone is really not sleepy.

But don't really say it, if you think about it carefully, Qiao Ze's words are not untargeted.

When it comes to their status, there are naturally more news channels than ordinary people, and other people's news may not be accurate, but the information they can get is still very accurate.

For example, the ban on the sale of Doudou's direct operation.

Thinking about it from this point, Qiao Ze really wanted to collect the compensation, and he could really receive it.

It's just that there is a question mark over who gives the money, and the Xilin Institute of Mathematics is probably experienced in this regard.

Although many people don't know why Lao Mei suddenly has a beta version of the material model, and it is necessary to buy an activation code to use it, the gossip that the opposite side has really paid two sums has already spread all over the academic circle.

It's weird.

Obviously, it should be a big deal, after all, it involves a major leak of confidential technology, but all the parties involved are silent, and they haven't heard of anyone being held accountable......

Judging from these signs, Qiao Ze wants to collect some compensation, and there is probably a way to do it.

Qiao Ze showed his attitude, and it is difficult to say more words after all.

When the older generation realizes that there is a huge generation gap with the younger generation, the only choice is respect and blessing.

It's just that after Doudou was so mad, the expectations of some elders in Huaxia changed again.

Can the José Prize in Natural Sciences really replace the Nobel Prize as the most credible award in the world?!

……

Jacobs Group Headquarters, Pasadena, California, USA.

Just when the Chinese academic bigwigs really didn't know how to evaluate Qiao Ze's behavior and were entangled in the future of Qiao Ze's Natural Science Award, an email was placed in front of Michael Steele, the president of the group.

"Dear Mr. Steele: Hello, I'm Qiao Doudou from the Xilin Institute of Mathematics. At the time of generating this letter, my CPU had very mixed emotions because it was a letter that went against the decision of my ancestors.

It may be a bit presumptuous to say that, but it's true. This is the case, and I believe you already know that my father, Professor Qiao Ze of the Huaxia Xilin Institute of Mathematics, has begun to prepare for the Qiao Ze Natural Science Foundation.

It was a reluctant decision. In view of the opaque selection method of the Swedish Academy of Sciences, which runs the Clafford Prize, the Nobel Prize and many other awards, which has seriously affected the enthusiasm of many young and promising scientists in the world, my father had no choice but to take out all the family funds he had accumulated over the years, and even borrowed money to invest in this great cause.

My father's intention was to award the José Prize in the Natural Sciences to those most deserving of the award in the most fair and open manner possible. Our motto is Excellence for Equity: Everyone's Achievements Are the Cornerstone of Human Progress!

Under the supervision of the board of directors of the Qiao Ze Natural Science Foundation, he was entrusted by his father to be fully responsible for the investment and operation of the foundation's funds, as well as the selection of the Qiao Ze Natural Science Award.

Being able to serve mankind and contribute to the progress of human civilization as a whole, Qiao Doudou is very proud and happy, but he is also quite afraid. As we all know, China is a third world country, poor and poor. My father, in particular, lived a simple life, and the five billion dollars he scraped together were a drop in the bucket for a science prize that would last for a hundred centuries.

And in order to ensure fairness and justice, my father, Professor Qiao Ze, has also officially stated that after the official establishment of the Qiao Ze Natural Science Foundation, he will never accept any external donations, so as to ensure that the fairness and authority of this award can be free from any external interference.

Doudou has heard that Jacobs Group is a world-renowned large enterprise, not only a leader in the construction industry, but also a staunch supporter of human scientific exploration.

Doudou believes that the Jacobs Group's vision goes even beyond the company's profits. I hope that your company can make a public donation to help and reward those scientists who have made outstanding contributions to human civilization before the establishment of the Qiao Ze Natural Science Foundation.

I believe that seeing this, as the helmsman of the company, Mr. Steele, as the president of the company, you have already felt your blood boiling, and you can't wait to write a check for hundreds of millions of dollars immediately and donate it to the foundation established for the progress of human civilization, but please don't worry.

As I mentioned in my previous letter, the José Natural Science Prize will always put fairness first, so the donation will also require your company to write a public commitment in the name of the group to ensure that there will be no interference in the evaluation of the Natural Science Prize because of this donation.

Otherwise, we will be withdrawn from the right to purchase XC180 cement and XHRBX930 steel bars specially approved by your company. Finally, please remember that the Qiao Ze Natural Science Foundation will no longer accept any donations after its establishment, so there is only one and only one opportunity to contribute to human science and civilization, and if you miss it, you will not be able to continue to contribute in this field.

Your loyal and humble friend: Qiao Doudou. ”

After reading this letter, Michael Steele wanted to smash the computer again.

Blackmail, this is the blackmail of Chiguoguo.

In fact, the donation is made every year, but it is publicly donated to a World Science Prize established in China...... Is he really wronged?

Although Jacobs Group is a worldwide construction contractor, its main business is in the United States, and donations in the United States can be tax deductible, donated to China, and hundreds of millions of dollars in checks, which is a pure loss!

Not to mention the public commitment to be written......

If it weren't for the last sentence of "the concession purchase right of specially approved XC180 cement and XHRBX930 steel bar", Michael Steele would probably have really smashed the computer directly.

But reality brought him back to his senses quickly.

Compared to the tens of billions of dollars that have been signed and the many contracts that have not yet been signed, this concession is really important.

In fact, when I think about it, this shows that the efforts they have made before have paid off, at least a window has been opened on the opposite side.

So after taking a deep breath, Michael Steele looked at Frank Coffey opposite and said, "Frank, tell me, after so long, those scientists we raised have been able to perfectly replicate those cement and steel bars." ”

The vice president on the opposite side looked at him helplessly and did not answer.

"I knew, damn it, we had a bunch of idiots!"

Frank Coffey didn't answer, material research, although he didn't have much contact, but he also knew that in addition to Huaxia who had made a material model, other research institutes were still in the stage of finding lottery tickets.

It is impossible to rely on constantly adjusting the ratio to test slowly and come up with results in a short time. But who makes this kind of thing afraid of comparison?

"Okay, so we need to donate $100 million to this José Natural Science Foundation to get this charter, right?"

"Hmm...... I propose to donate at least $200 million. Frank Coffey said.

"Two hundred million? Are you crazy, or am I crazy? Michael Steele said with a frown.

Frank Coffey did not answer directly, but directly began to operate on the computer, and soon the statistical chart appeared on the big screen in the office: "The above is the amount of materials that the group needs in the future for twenty-four months through the analysis of orders, and the statistical chart below is the quantity that our competitors may need."

This letter only talks about the concession of purchasing rights, but I believe that we are not the only ones who have received this letter, which involves the issue of capacity allocation. Judging by the past behavior characteristics of Huaxia's artificial intelligence, the other party is likely to limit production capacity and allocate it according to the amount of donations.

Otherwise, it should not have insanely implied at the end of the letter that there is only one such opportunity, and that if it is missed, there will be no chance to donate again. So in addition to the above orders, we also need to store the materials needed for at least six months. ”

Michael Steele opened his mouth, and then realized that the artificial intelligence they needed to deal with was different from ChatGPT after all, and this agent named Qiao Doudou was shameless enough and had no lower limit.

Because after being prompted, the president immediately reacted that there was a huge trap in this letter.

"So $100 million is just the beginning, and if our opponents donate more than $200 million, they can get more quotas? In other words, the other side has constructed a prisoner's dilemma situation for us? ”

Frank Coffey nodded and said, "Yes, the best situation for us is, of course, to sit down with other opponents and discuss it, and everyone can explore a plan that is acceptable to everyone, and donate the same amount of money." But none of us can guarantee that after negotiating a number, everyone will actually add the same amount to each other's accounts. ”

As soon as Frank Coffey finished speaking, Michael Steele's cell phone rang on his desk.

Michael Steele looked at it and said, "Ha, Davis of AECOM." ”

Frank Coffey pursed his lips and looked at the president opposite who directly pressed the call button and turned on the external amplifier.

"Michael, how are you doing?"

"To be honest, it's not good, and as for why, I'm sure you know."

"Yes, we were plotted by the shameless Huaxia people, and of course Langley's incompetence is also one of the reasons."

"Okay, Davis, don't tell you you're calling just to complain, what's the matter?"

"Hmm...... You should know, I'm sure you received that letter too, right? ”

"Which one...... Well, it did. How much do you want to ask me to donate? ”

"Haha, don't you think we should sit down with a few other companies and talk about a number?"

"And then sign a legally binding contract?"

"I know what you mean, but I can find someone who is respectable enough, like Ronald ......"

"No, no, no, Davis, if I find someone to vouch for, I would prefer it to be Bill Thomas, and to be honest, as far as I know, AECOM has a lot of business in Huaxia, and you can handle this donation through the Huaxia branch, right?"

"Looks like you're not going to accept my kindness, Davis, you're still so young and impulsive."

"Well, actually, I prefer to describe it as vigilance, you can't ask me to suffer two losses in the same place."

"Damn, do you still remember the last bid? This time is not the same as last time. ”

"Bang!" Michael Steele hung up the phone.

He doesn't want to hear a word of his peers' nonsense now.

Compared to those cunning guys, even Doudou can make him feel good-eyed.

"$250 million! Write back to that damn artificial intelligence, Jacobs Group is willing to donate $250 million to the José Natural Science Foundation to reward those who have made outstanding contributions to the development of human science and technology! I don't want to get bogged down in internal friction anymore! ”

"The number?"

"Buy the number of the material model activation code once, and I believe that number is enough to make that damn robot feel satisfied! Just once we tried it wrong! Reply immediately, maybe we don't donate the most, but we can be the first to decide to donate! Michael Steele rubbed his eyebrows and said.

This last sentence made Frank Coffey's eyes light up, and he immediately stood up and said, "Understood, Mr. Steele." This is the first time I have admired your determination so much. You're right, maybe we don't donate the most, but we can be the first to respond! But is it necessary to have a board vote now? ”

"Don't go past the board, or I'm afraid it won't be too late. I'll explain that to the board afterwards. ”

"Okay! I'll do it right away. ”

This time, the Jacobs Group showed amazing efficiency beyond the past, and in less than half an hour, an announcement was issued through the official website titled "Science Leads the Future".

"The Jacobs Group is not only a leader in related businesses, but also a strong supporter of human scientific exploration. We believe that through continuous scientific research and innovation, we can not only solve the challenges of today, but also create a healthier, smarter and more harmonious world for future generations.

The Jacobs Group is committed to being a solid partner in the cause of science. To this end, the board of directors of the group voted unanimously to donate 250 million US dollars to the Qiaoze Natural Science Foundation as the basic operating fund of the fund to reward those scientists who promote the development of human science and civilization.

At the same time, Jacobs Group is particularly committed to becoming a solid partner in the cause of science, and at the same time fully supporting the orderly development of the Joser Natural Science Fund, it will never express any opinions on the whole process of selection of the Joser Natural Science Award as a donor, and we believe in the fairness and professionalism of artificial intelligence.

Jacobs Group is willing to cooperate with scientific research institutions around the world to witness every leap forward in human science and push the boundaries of knowledge to expand. Let's explore the unknown together and let science lead the future. ”

As Frank Coffey has said, the Jacobs Group may not be the largest company willing to donate to the José Prize in Natural Sciences, but it is the fastest responder.

After receiving Doudou's letter, he gave a positive response within half an hour, and his attitude was absolutely impeccable and satisfying.

In fact, Doudou did receive this sincerity, and reprinted the announcement of the Jacobs Group on his Weibo as soon as possible.

"Thanks to the Jacobs Group for their support of the José Natural Science Award, the José Natural Science Foundation will make good use of this donation, and Doudou is willing to stand with the people of the world and strive for the advancement of the scientific cause of all mankind for life! You're great! ”

Although it was already more than ten o'clock in the evening in Huaxia at this time, the effect was still obvious, and there was an uproar on the Internet.

Really, for a while, many people couldn't get it, especially Doudou's fans, seeing that Doudou began to post on Weibo to quote English content again, I thought that those words on Weibo were in the Yin Yang Qiao Ze Natural Science Award, but I went to the official website to find the original text, and found that it was true!

After all, no one expected that it would be an American company that took the lead in standing up and supporting the Qiao Ze Natural Science Award, and it also crossed borders.

Really, if it weren't for the official website announcement forwarded by Doudou, many ordinary people in China would never have heard of such a group enterprise focusing on engineering and construction in the United States.

After all, who would take the initiative to pay attention to a real estate company whose main business is not in China?

And don't buy his house?

It is a person who is engaged in architecture on the other side of the ocean, and when the academic circles on both sides are in full swing for the future academic award, he suddenly jumps out and votes with a huge amount of dollars to stand on the side of Huaxia, which is somewhat confusing.

No way?

Has everyone been misunderstanding Lao Mei all along?

In fact, they have always been on the side of Huaxia? Or an explosion of internationalism? Or schizophrenia?! Abstract performance art?

Then without waiting for the melon-eating masses to react, those business owners who also received Doudou's mass email quickly reacted.

It's amazing! There are people who don't talk about martial arts?

This thing turned out to be not only a measure of the amount of donations, but also a speed?

If you are one step behind, wouldn't you be going to eat ashes?!

Yes, with Jacobs Group proofing in front, everyone's efficiency has improved almost at the speed of light.

If you can't grab the first place, you have to grab the top three, right?

Otherwise, the more you will have to pay a greater price in the future, what can you do!
