Chapter 197 Overtaking on the curve, technology is the number one productivity!
"Well, since you don't agree to focus on chip research and development, then this is rejected. We will focus on researching MPEG technology, forming an expert team, and recruiting people from home and abroad, especially from abroad.
I need your help, this should be no problem!"
The person from IDG who is here today is not Xiong Xiaoge, but a director arranged by IDG to Wanhua.
At this time, the other party nodded: "Of course, this is no problem. If Wanhua can succeed in its research, it will be of great benefit to us. I fully support this!"
The people from Carlyle and 3i also nodded: "We have no problem with this!"
Tang Xionghua nodded. "Okay, then. Regarding the recruitment, you can help us overseas. We're willing to double or even triple the salary for experts in this field. You can also be clear that if the research and development is successful, in addition to basic benefits, we'll also provide a large bonus for successful project research."
Either don't do it, or do it the best you can. These experts are from abroad. In fact, Tang Xionghua is just about to name them and poach the R&D personnel from the Double C companies.
Carlyle and IDG also understand this.
Of course, it is impossible to rely entirely on them. Experts will also be recruited domestically. Among these, Tang Xionghua originally planned to wait until the shareholders' meeting was over, and then go to Academician Mi when the time was right, and then introduce some people through him.
In this way, even if we set up our own R&D department and then cooperate with Peking University and Tsinghua University, we can make great strides on this path.
After a pause, Tang Xionghua added, "As long as we can apply for a patent and be the first to develop the second or third generation, I can guarantee that the research department will receive a project bonus of no less than 10 million yuan."
Tang Xionghua uttered a number that stunned everyone.
"No, Mr. Tang, is it necessary?"
One person from Jiang Wanmeng's R&D team spoke up.
This amount is really too large.
The R&D bonus of 10 million MiGold is too much for them, as they are also R&D personnel.
After all, Wanhua is now one of them. It hurts to spend so much money as a reward!
You have to know that nowadays, for a R&D personnel abroad, even if you recruit people with double Cs, the maximum salary is 200,000 to 300,000 MiG per person with double salary. For a more senior one, the annual salary is at most 600,000 to 700,000 MiG per person.
But now, Tang Xionghua actually gave such a huge bonus after the R&D! Even the people at IDG were surprised.
However, they didn't say anything.
Tang Xionghua looked at the person from Jiang Wanmeng's R&D team and said, "It's necessary. I believe that productivity must be based on owning core technologies. Otherwise, it would be like building a wedding dress and a castle in the air."
Just like us at Wanhua, if we, Wanhua VCD, didn’t have a patent, how far do you think we could go?
Society is progressing, technology is advancing, and our products must also keep up with the times, whether it is the appearance or the core of the product.
This is our cornerstone, and we will invest as much as we can into it!"
"Clap!"
The representative director of 3i suddenly clapped his hands, and his action prompted the people from Carlyle and IDG to applaud as well.
The 3i representative said, "Mr. Tang, your words convince me that our investment this time is very important!"
Having said that, he looked again at Jiang Wanmeng and the rest of the R&D team: "Everyone, if you disagree with Chairman Tang's decision, I'm happy to apply for funding from the company and am willing to buy out some of your shares at our previous valuation!"
“We at IDG are the same!”
"Carlyle is also happy to do so, especially Mr. Jiang. You still have a lot of shares, are you willing to sell some?"
"Haha!" Jiang Wanmeng laughed, "I absolutely support Chairman Tang's decision. In fact, Wanhua's current success is all thanks to Chairman Tang. I really trust his vision. As someone with a background in R&D and technology, I also like Chairman Tang!"
"Haha! Fine then, it's settled!"
Tang Xionghua laughed out loud.
It doesn't really matter that they rejected the chip proposal.
Tang Xionghua had already prepared two plans.
Now this is another set of options.
Wanhua develops MPEG.
I used their rejection as an excuse to set up a research and development company to research chips.
In fact, Tang Yichen wanted to monopolize the chip research and development from the beginning.
However, it is not the time for Wanhua to develop other businesses yet. If we do it secretly, it will be difficult to explain to Wanhua.
After all, Tang Xionghua is now entering the chip industry, and he needs to use the name of Wanhua VCD to find Academician Mi.
But now that I have said it and they have denied it, then naturally there is no problem and everyone is happy. If you agree, I will feel comfortable too.
The only downside is that if he does this, Tang Xionghua will have to pay for the chip research himself.
But this is nothing to Tang Xionghua.
Tang Xionghua now has 30 to 40 million yuan on him, which is definitely enough for the initial period.
After all, chip research can be done slowly.
On the 16th, Wanhua began to take action based on the board decision made on the evening of the 15th.
Not to mention overseas, here in China, Wanhua directly organizes people to go to major well-known universities to recruit recent undergraduate and graduate graduates.
Of course, it would be even better if there is a PhD willing to come.
In short, the price is very high. For an undergraduate, the starting annual salary is 100,000, which is equivalent to a monthly salary of 8,000 RMB.
This is ninety-four years.
In this era, there is a saying that those who do scientific research are not as good as those who make tea eggs.
After Wanhua's recruitment information was circulated, the society was once again in an uproar.
Newspaper headlines and news reports everywhere were reporting this incident quickly.
This incident was even reported in the News Broadcast on the 20th, and this sentence appeared in the final summary.
"Science and technology are the primary productive forces. We must respect scientific research and its researchers. Wanhua Group has done a great job in this regard. The top leadership has issued instructions, hoping that private enterprises will learn from Wanhua Group."
Although this was just one sentence, it undoubtedly pushed Wanhua to the forefront again.
"It's still better to study! Who said studying is useless? Look at my salary now. I regret it now. If my teacher had slapped me instead of getting angry, maybe I would have been admitted to university and joined Wanhua now, earning such a high salary!"
"One hundred thousand a year, that's too much money. When I get back, I have to make sure my son studies hard!"
"I originally wanted my child to take the technical secondary school entrance exam, but now it seems that there is no point in taking the exam. What's the use of having a stable job after graduating from a technical secondary school? Two to three hundred yuan a month is enough to work for a lifetime after a year of technical secondary school graduation.
"No matter what, I want my child to go to university and study Wanhua Recruitment!"
The people were in an uproar, and in the capital, at this time, in an old building that was at least twenty or thirty years old.
"Hey!
A heavy sigh came from Academician Mi's mouth.
At the moment, Academician Mi is sitting on a bamboo lounge chair in his home with a tired face.
I saw in the news that Wanhua VCD established a research and development department and gave scientific researchers treatment.
He sighed deeply, feeling powerless.
As an academician, his professional ability is beyond doubt.
In fact, he has been engaged in the research and development of computers and their applications for decades. He participated in the development of my country's first independently designed vacuum tube computer. In the 1960s and 1970s, he carried out research on Chinese character processing and character recognition, and pioneered the application of associative functions in Chinese character input.
Especially in 1984, the Institute of Computing Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences founded the Institute of Computing Technology Company (the predecessor of the American Conscience) to transform scientific and technological achievements. He contributed ** and presided over the development of the Chinese character system, which created significant economic and social benefits and made tens of millions in profit.
That was tens of millions in the 1980s.
He is considered to be Shi Yuzhu's absolute predecessor and the pioneer of this path.
And such a person, now in the company, he, a chief engineer, has become a miscellaneous staff member.
There is no one left in the R&D room of the institute.
R&D funds and projects are being cut despite progress.
Last month, he reported Lenovo's asset outflow in the United States under his real name.
But in return...
Now, he is very powerless.
He was thinking, how great it would be if the conscience of the United States was a group like Wanhua
He even thought about leaving the United States and going to Wanhua to look for the richest man in the country.
But this thought only came to his mind for a second before he erased it.
Lenovo is his hard work and also a state-owned asset. He couldn't bear to watch the state-owned assets disappear in such an inexplicable way.
He was not reconciled.
We have to wait for a definite result on this matter.
