Chapter 1489 School Committee

In fact, Principal Huber didn't notice this little boss from China at first. He thought Duan Yun was just Hu Zhengming's friend, but when he learned that Duan Yun was Hu Zhengming's boss, his attitude changed immediately.

In Huber's impression, China is a very poor and backward country with the largest population in the world, but most people still don't have enough to eat, so in his view, China and barren Africa are almost equated, the only thing is The special thing is that China is a red socialist country, where people wear badges of *** on their chests, and all they hold in their hands are anthologies of ***.

In fact, not only Huber, but most Germans have the same impression of the Chinese, because the media they have access to basically promotes China with images and photos from 10 or even 20 years ago. There has not been intensive and frequent non-governmental exchanges.

But being able to hire Hu Zhengming, a well-known Chinese expert in the microelectronics field, is not something that ordinary technology companies can do. It is precisely because of this that Huber began to pay attention to Duan Yun's attitude.

"My University of Munich is a highly open university. Friends from all over the world are welcome to visit our school. I would like to ask, Mr. Duan, what products does your company mainly produce?" Huber asked.

"Our company mainly produces electronic products, including Walkmans, VCRs, tape recorders and other products. In addition, we have jointly established a chip factory with Japan, and hold some patent rights for chip designs." Duan Yun paused, Then he said: "Many American companies, including IBM, Texas Instruments, and Apple, have business dealings with our company. Last year, our company's profit reached 11 billion yuan, equivalent to more than 2 million U.S. dollars..."

Duan Yun knew in his heart that Munich, as a top school in Germany and even in Europe, has business cooperation with many multinational companies. If Duan Yun's company itself is not strong enough, it will not arouse the interest of such a well-known university at all.

Sure enough, after hearing what Duan Yun said, several members of the LMU school committee, including Huber, showed disbelief. When they looked at Duan Yun again, their eyes were full of surprise and respect.

You must know that there are not many companies in Europe with annual profits exceeding 1 million US dollars, including many established companies in Germany that were established in the first half of the year. It is already very good to make tens of millions of dollars in profits a year. It is impossible to imagine the poor and backward ancient country far in the east.

The Germans are quite pragmatic. After learning about Duan Yun's identity, their attitude towards him became warmer. At this moment, Hu Zhengming, who was originally the focus of reception, has become the person next to Duan Yun. supporting role.

"... After more than 10 years of reform and opening up, China has become the fastest growing economy in the world, and while developing the economy, it has also begun to integrate into the world faster and faster." At this time, Duan Yun was eloquent, and he continued: "China has a population of 10 billion, which can be said to be the largest single market in the world. Although in terms of per capita income, it is far less rich than your Germany, but with the continuous development of China , this market will become very impressive, your German Volkswagen Company has already started to explore the Chinese market in 1984, and established a joint venture company in Shanghai, which has also brought them a lot of profits over the years..."

Duan Yun tried his best to attract the attention of the executives of the University of Munich, because before he came here, he had already learned that German universities pay great attention to economic benefits. How much social benefits can be brought by fully serving as the engine of the national economy has also become an important indicator for measuring the influence of German universities.

"Mr. Duan's words really opened our eyes. Frankly speaking, including me and my colleagues, I still lack understanding of China. I really didn't expect your country to develop so fast..." After listening to Duan Yun's narration Finally, Huber replied with some emotion, and only heard him continue: "Now I want to know what kind of plan your company has for coming to our school this time?"

At this moment, Huber directly asked Duan Yun the purpose of his trip.

"The main purpose of my visit to your school this time is to cooperate with your school and jointly establish a research institute in your school, which is mainly engaged in the research and development of personal computer software and hardware. In addition, I am also very grateful for your German optical technology. Interest, if possible, we also want to cooperate with your University of Munich to open an optical laboratory." Duan Yun raised his brows and said.

"Research on software and hardware of personal computer and optical technology?" Hearing what Duan Yun said, Huber felt a little surprised.

Because in Huber's impression, the personal computer market has always been dominated by American and Japanese companies, and the product development of personal PCs in Europe can be described as lackluster. As for optical technology research, although Germany has the most advanced optical company Zeiss, But this is not the strong point of the University of Munich, and their university does not have a department of optics.

"The key is personal PCs. I know that your school has a high academic level in computer software, so we can cooperate in this area first." Duan Yun said.

Before Duan Yun came to the University of Munich, he had actually learned about the basic situation of the university's majors through Hu Zhengming. He also knew that the University of Munich did not have a department related to optics, and that computer was the major with the highest academic level in the University of Munich, so he A direct request for cooperation with the University of Munich in this regard.

In fact, there is a certain gap between the academic level of the University of Munich and the United States in computer science, but it is far better than other countries, and almost all universities in Europe are highly open, and academic exchanges between each other are frequent, which also makes Europe Universities have a certain cluster advantage, which cannot be compared with American and Japanese universities.

"There is no problem with cooperation, but the problem of funding..." Huber thought for a while and said.

"I can donate 200 million U.S. dollars to your school every year for technology research and development. In addition, if your school can complete the research and development tasks I assigned on time, I can also provide your school with a reward of up to 300 million U.S. dollars. Does the school approve of my cooperation plan?" Duan Yun said solemnly.

"200 million dollars!?"

After hearing Duan Yun's quotation, everyone present was a little moved.
