Chapter 1955 - 1779: A Grand Gesture
Chapter 1955: Chapter 1779: A Grand Gesture
Very soon.
They arrived at another building.
“Car?”
“Unmanned bus.”
“…”
“Autonomous driving.”
“…”
“Commercial satellite.”
“…”
“Deep Sea Submersible.”
“…”
“Offshore drilling platform.”
“…”
The more they looked.
The more shocked they were, looking at Tang Qing, the meaning in their eyes was clear: What are you planning? Is this aiming for the skies? The earlier parts were understandable, but the latter parts are getting more and more outrageous. Is this what you desire?
Well!
It seems indeed so.
Tang Qing just said, the starry sky and the deep sea, he wants to see both. But isn’t this too fast? After the initial shock, they wanted to ask if it would lose money, but still didn’t say it out loud, Tang Qing said he didn’t mind.
If he wants to do it
he just does it.
Sure enough, he is rich.
“Are you confident?” All worries turned into a question.
“Yes.”
Tang Qing nodded.
What a joke.
Our technology is already complete, it’s just a matter of slowly rolling it out and gradually advancing.
“That’s good then.”
The leaders breathed a sigh of relief.
Thankfully.
It’s not a real loss. Although Tang Qing is young, his words are quite reliable. Once these projects succeed, the Shanghai Stock Market will look good, and since this is a private enterprise, any opinions can only be reserved.
“Keep it up.”
“Yes.”
“By the way, why did you invite so many universities?”
“Collaboration.”
About this.
It wasn’t mentioned in the conference just now; it’s something to be discussed in the afternoon. As for cooperation with entrepreneurs, it was mentioned, but not many responded, because they were unsure of the strength here.
However.
No rush.
Tang Qing will make the world remember this name.
“Can you elaborate?”
In the afternoon.
The leaders had all gone back, business cooperation was something they wouldn’t get involved in.
Five minutes later.
“Good, a good thing.”
After listening to Tang Qing’s explanation, the city leaders praised it highly. If successful, it would greatly benefit the future development of the park. Tang Qing is truly generous, laying out such a large plan all at once.
…
At noon.
After having lunch.
After drinking tea.
The city leaders all returned.
In the afternoon.
The Great Hall.
Nearly a thousand entrepreneurs, school principals, and professors came here. If the Great Hall could accommodate everyone, the opening ceremony would have been held here. Once everyone was seated, Tang Qing stepped onto the stage.
In an instant.
The scene quieted down.
“Good afternoon, everyone.”
“I want to thank you all once again for coming. I’ll get straight to the point. The first thing involves various universities. Our park is preparing to establish a university cooperation fund, with a scale of 10 billion RMB.”
Upon hearing this.
Everyone was shocked.
Ten billion.
In 2008, it was an enormous sum of money.
“This fund is mainly used to establish cooperative research institutes. After breaking down the park’s projects, they can be packaged and handed over to these research institutes. Based on the completion status, they will receive corresponding rewards.”
“At the same time.”
“Project investment will also be made, and experts or professors from various universities who have suitable projects can apply. If any have patent technologies that need commercial transformation, they can also cooperate with us.”
“Of course.”
“It doesn’t necessarily have to be with us; the Smart Space is also a platform, a technology brokerage platform. After evaluation, it will find the demand side based on the situation, creating value for both parties.”
“…”
With the explanation.
The people present kept nodding.
“Impressive.”
The technology brokerage platform is somewhat akin to Ali’s Taobao. However, Taobao sells products, while this matches technology. Upon deeper consideration, one could see the formidable nature of this park.
Integration.
This is a type of integration of research and development resources.
Universities.
Professors.
Those research institutes are like straws, constantly drawing talent and teams into their system, quickly forming a formidable research force, even comparable to the two academies.
Moreover.
Those experts and professors who struggle with converting technology into benefits will flock to it. In other words, Smart Space Industrial Park will possess firsthand, and highly comprehensive, technology information.
This model.
Once born.
Is almost invincible.
Below.
Many professors were very moved. The transformation of scientific research has always been a big issue. Out of a hundred technologies developed, in Huaxia’s situation, less than ten can truly be transformed to generate benefits.
Too few.
Far below foreign ones.
For this reason.
They were troubled as well.
Developed technology that no one uses is very frustrating, and it’s also easy to be cheated. Sometimes, people would approach them with conditions that were almost theft. If there was a fair technology trading platform, it would be a blessing.
They looked at Tang Qing.
And found.
The more they looked, the more agreeable he seemed. The leaders of the universities were also very interested in having many shelved technologies that could be transformed into benefits. If not timely transformed, they might become outdated.
And the entrepreneurs?
They were worried.
Excited.
Two emotions were entangled.
Excited that in the future, when buying technology, there would be a reliable platform; worried that this platform doesn’t serve only them but also their competitors, increasing competitive pressure.
Moreover.
With the platform.
It’s not easy to buy cheap technology carelessly anymore.
But.
No matter how tangled, they knew they couldn’t stop it either. The advent of E-Commerce is an unstoppable trend, and so is the emergence of a technology trading platform, leaving them with only one option: strive for their interests.
How to strive?
Not difficult.
Forge a good relationship with this platform, and if there’s related good technology, cooperate with it. With this thought, everyone smiled wryly; this is probably the effect Tang Qing wanted, making them have no choice but to board the ship.
Want to board the ship.
You have to buy a ticket, it’s only natural.
…
Half an hour later.
“Whew!”
Luo Qiang breathed a sigh of relief.
It was perfect.
Qingyuan Technology is heading in a direction not envisioned at its inception, but it is foreseeable that this is a broad, smooth road. If well-managed, Qingyuan Technology can go even further.
Such a big event.
Of course, it’s impossible to sign a contract on the spot; they still have to return and hold meetings to discuss. But the outcome is already determined; as long as the major universities aren’t fools, they will agree to this cooperation, as it’s essentially free money from the sky.
On average.
One billion per school.
It’s not small.
“Take care.”
“Goodbye.”
“Bye-bye.”
“…”
After the meeting.
Many people left. Although the hotel’s food was delicious, they had prior plans. Having had three feasts, they would skip the fourth, as they have to work tomorrow and discuss this matter.
Moreover.
Since they are public universities, such cooperation needs to be reported for approval. Although it will certainly be approved, the entire process will definitely drag until Chinese New Year; only after the year can formal cooperation begin.
“So generous.”
Getting in the car.
A university principal said. Upon leaving, each invited guest received a small gift—not too small, not too large—a Zhongyuan smartphone. Though not lacking, it was heartwarming.
“I just left, and I already miss the hotel’s cuisine. Tsk, tsk, it’s too delicious.”
“Come again next time to eat.”
“Okay.”
Many people looked forward to coming again when signing the contract next time, hoping to enjoy another meal. Soon, guests at the hotel were fewer than two hundred, mostly entrepreneurs, who had more time and weren’t as busy as public officials.
