Chapter 501 The Principal's Speech Reprimanding His Alma Mater
"It's a blessing for the school that Xiao Lei has this kind of heart."
"I've instructed the Academic Affairs Office and the Graduate School to coordinate immediately and get it implemented as soon as possible." The secretary nodded with a smile.
Lei Jun felt relieved and quickly offered another toast.
Just as the atmosphere was reaching its climax, the secretary's expression suddenly changed, and his tone became somewhat stern:
"However, Xiao Lei, there's something I, as your teacher, must remind you of."
"Please speak!"
Leibusi quickly straightened his attitude, after all, he knew this was the final test.
Some things can't be solved with money, but once the other party accepts the money, it means that all the tests have been passed.
"Enterprises can take big steps in development, but they must be steady."
The secretary slowly took a sip of tea.
"Foreign ownership always carries risks."
Especially given the current international situation, many things are beyond our control.
As soon as he finished speaking, the old Party Secretary next to him nodded immediately, and Lei Jun also quickly put on a look of fear, while inwardly complaining, "These people are really..."
I want both!
He knew that the Party Secretary was calling on him.
It seems the school must have inquired about his salary before he arrived.
He quickly picked up his glass, adopting an even more humble attitude:
"Teacher, you are right."
I've always known that this rice is native to China, and the company's control will always be in our hands.
Silver Lake is only a financial investor and does not participate in actual operations.
"And don't worry, I will gradually adjust the equity structure and reduce the proportion of foreign ownership to ensure the company's independence."
Don't worry, I will absolutely not let my alma mater down.
The secretary smiled and nodded, without saying anything more.
We're all smart people, so let's leave it at that. Whether they can actually use this lifeline is their business.
"To express our gratitude for the teachers' support, we will donate an additional 200 million Chinese Yuan for the construction of the school."
I plan to use 2000 million of this amount to establish the Lei Jun Incentive Award, which will be used to award scholarships to students.
None of them spoke about the funds, but they all nodded silently.
Lei Jun finally felt half relieved.
This trip was worthwhile.
…………
The next morning, the auditorium of the School of Information Science at Yinghan University was bustling with activity.
"Mr. Lei is going to give a speech! I'm so excited! This is one of the few opportunities to meet a big shot like him."
Several students from a certain major in the School of Electronic Information pointed at the bustling stage and said:
"Previously, Mr. Lei would give speeches at schools in Kyoto. I thought he had forgotten about his alma mater."
The boy's tone was full of anger. After all, he had initially joined Yinghan University because of Leibusi's influence, but three years had passed and he hadn't seen him even once.
My roommate is a staunch Xiaomi fan, so he quickly defended himself:
"Mr. Lei is Chinese, and the cultural concept of returning to one's roots will definitely influence him; his alma mater is certainly a factor!"
"I heard that President Lei... well, this time he paid to avoid trouble..."
"Hey you guys over there, watch out..."
At this point, another veteran fan, seemingly dissatisfied with their statement, offered a reminder from the side.
However, as soon as he said that, he was immediately rebuffed by those people:
"Although I really want to support Lei Jun, my Xiaomi phone is getting too hot, so I've already become a Xiaomi hater."
Thousands of students crowded into the auditorium, eagerly anticipating what was to come.
Soon, Lei Jun stepped onto the stage with his familiar Lei Jun style.
It remains very down-to-earth.
"Returning to my alma mater today fills me with many emotions."
At the teacher's invitation, I'd like to share the key factors for the success of our rice business.
A round of enthusiastic applause immediately erupted from the audience.
Before we officially begin, let me chat with you for a bit.
More than 10 years ago, I was sitting in this auditorium just like you, listening to the experiences shared by senior students.
At that time, I thought that I would build a great company and change the world.
Some of the rice fans in the audience immediately went wild.
"Rice companies change the world!"
……
After rambling on for a while, Lei Jun moved on to the story segment he knew best.
"That's why I started this rice business. Later, many people asked me what the secret to its success was."
"I said, it's a dream!"
"What's the difference between a person without dreams and a salted fish?"
"Back then, I and a dozen partners were drinking rice porridge and chatting in our office in Zhongguancun."
Actually, some of my partners said I was crazy.
After all, the mobile phone market has entered a very difficult stage, and our competitors have also lowered their prices to 1999.
But I don't believe in superstition!
"We believe that rice can be used to make the world's best mobile phones..."
However, when he said this, the expected cheers did not erupt from the audience, and even the previously enthusiastic rice fans quieted down.
After all, the more I listen, the more it seems that rice has made no contribution to the industry as a whole, and is instead like a burden.
Seeing this, Lei Jun quickly adjusted his pace and prepared to enter the final stage.
"Today's rice is no longer a mobile phone company."
We have mobile phones, tablets, and smart home systems. We are also developing smart cars. We have hundreds of billions of yuan in our accounts.
We will invest 100 billion yuan in research and development over the next five years.
Have you ever heard of intelligent driving systems?
At this point, Lei Jun looked at the audience and asked a question.
Many people in the audience nodded subconsciously!
"I've heard of it!"
"It's said that Transsion has already started planning, and their S7 and H7 series will be equipped with it."
"It's clearly FSD, which is the foundation of intelligent driving, and their technology is better."
Listening to the discussion below the stage, Lei Jun felt a chill in his heart and sent another telepathic message.
What frightens him even more is that Transsion's penetration rate among students is already stronger than that of rice.
This is not good news!
"That's right. The concept of intelligent driving was first developed by FSD, and some of our competitors are also developing this technology."
But I believe that the intelligent driving algorithm for rice developed by you will be the most advanced and user-friendly intelligent driving algorithm in the world.
After speaking, Lei Jun looked at the students of Yinghan University below the stage with deep affection.
Faced with Lei Jun's sudden trust, some people who previously looked down on him have now changed their opinion of him.
"Today I assure you all that the rice car project is absolutely our top priority."
"For the intelligent driving sub-project alone, we invested as much as 30 billion Chinese yuan, and that's just for one year."
Meanwhile, the PowerPoint presentation on the projection screen also displayed: "High-salary recruitment! Starting salary of 30 yuan per year!"
The target for rice is also displayed on the back of the screen:
We aim to conquer chips, operating systems, and the core computing power of intelligent driving; we strive to become a true technology company and stand at the pinnacle of the world!
Of course, these people didn't notice the small print on the right: All of the above content is the goal and is being carried out step by step.
