Chapter 342 Chapter 341 Which Dimension of Child Labor

Yao Hao sat in front of the large surveillance screen and glanced back and forth among the classrooms.

The same goes for the people sitting on both sides of him. They looked at the representatives of giant companies with curiosity and expectation.Sitting on Yao Hao's left is a leader from the Administrative Center of Jiaotong University, and on his right is Song Huaifeng, the representative of Chongkai Technology.

A few days ago, Xu Zhe called Uncle Song over and asked him to follow Yao Hao to become more familiar with the operation of the investment company.After all, this stall will handle a considerable amount of money in the future, and without one of our own people keeping an eye on it, we really can’t rest assured.

Song Huaifeng lowered his head and glanced at his mobile phone, and suddenly said: "Microsoft has also withdrawn from the competition, and only Gu Gou has offered a price of 2500 million yuan."

The school leaders couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Is this the end of the auction? Oh my god, it's only two to thirty million yuan. In just a few months, you have actually built a company worth more than one hundred million yuan..."

Yao Hao shook his head: "It's not over yet. Mr. Xu said it's not over yet. The auction will be suspended for a while. Qiandu is sending someone from the Imperial Capital headquarters. When people arrive, the auction will continue. It's just the midfield now. take a break."

School leader: "Send someone from the imperial capital?"

Yao Hao: "Yes, because the Qiandu executive here is not high enough, so we need to send someone at the vice president level."

The school leaders who thought they were well-informed only realized what an eye-opener is today.He widened his eyes and asked, "Qiandu actually pays so much attention to it?"

Yao Hao smiled and said nothing.

After all, the facts are here, and there is nothing more to say.

When Song Huaifeng looked at the large surveillance screen, he felt as if he was in a grand and long dream.

Now, the cameras in those classrooms were faithfully transmitting the images to the big screen, so they could see how anxious and uneasy the expressions of representatives from giant companies like Gugou and Qiandu were.The reason why they reacted like this was all because of Xu Zhe's handiwork.

Song Huaifeng couldn't help but recall the moment he was pulled up by Xu Zhe on the bank of the western suburbs reservoir in the small town that year.

At that time, he was deeply in debt and despairing.But now, sitting next to the leaders of a prestigious university, I witnessed with my own eyes how a start-up company was auctioned for one or two billion... and the final result may be more than that.

The school leader suddenly asked: "Why don't Gu Gou and Qiandu communicate privately to lower your price? Besides, they can also buy half of the shares at the same time. Why do they have to buy them all?"

Yao Hao replied confidently: "Mr. Xu and I have discussed this point a long time ago. The most important thing about Eureka Company is the algorithm, the patent behind the paper, and experts like Associate Professor Zou. If everyone has it, it's nothing. It makes sense. Neither Gugou nor Qiandu will be willing to share it with their competitors."

The school leader nodded.

The big screen showed that representatives from Microsoft and Deep-mind had already packed up and were preparing to leave.

Song Huaifeng suddenly said: "Mr. Xu informed me that the bidding will resume in three hours."

Yao Hao: "The vice president of Qiandu is really fast."

School leader: "In that case, it's time for dinner. Would you like to ask Mr. Xu and Professor Zou to have something to eat?"

Song Huaifeng immediately sent a text message to Xu Zhe.

Soon, he received a reply, and he gave the answer from Xu Zhe: "Mr. Xu said no, they don't have the heart to eat now. We can just order takeout. He also said..."

Yao Hao: "What else can you say?"

Song Huaifeng smiled and said: "Mr. Xu also said that someone at Jiaotong University should be doing an Internet food delivery company. If your school can help match up, he may be able to invest."

Yao Hao shrugged: "You remember what you want to invest in whenever we talk about it, right? Mr. Xu's mind is really flexible."

The school leader quickly said: "Okay, that's great. There are actually students in our school starting businesses in this field!"

Song Huaifeng asked again: "Is there a company called 'Are You Hungry'?"

The school leader suddenly laughed: "Mr. Xu is really well-informed. That was founded by our master's degree from Jiaotong University. 'Are You Hungry' has been in business for several years and has received tens of millions of yuan in investment! Now our Jiaotong University's When students talk about takeout, they all order with 'Are you hungry'?"

Yao Hao joked: "I've already ordered takeout, is there still business in your school cafeteria?"

The leader shook his head: "It's more important for students to start a business. What's the canteen? Since Mr. Xu is optimistic about it, I'll help match it up. It will definitely be no problem."

Yao Hao agreed with a smile, and at the same time exchanged glances with Song Huaifeng.

This is the first time that Song Huaifeng has so intuitively understood how important 'connections' are.Of course, in his opinion, the more important thing is the investment perspective.

Everyone present knew that the most important thing was Xu Zhe's vision.

The night was getting darker, and Qiandu's vice president finally arrived.

The auction resumed, but only Gugou and Qiandu were left competing.The next development was completely beyond everyone's expectations, except Xu Zhe.

In the fourth round of bidding, Qiandu and Gugou both bid 2700 million yuan.The fifth round of bidding was 2900 million for Qiandu and 3000 million for Gugou.

In the sixth round, Qiandu got 3200 million and Gugou got 3100 million.

In the seventh round, Gugou bid 3440 million, while Qiandu simply raised the price to 4000 million!
"Want to start round eight?"

Zou Tianyan asked as he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

Xu Zhe looked at him and suddenly laughed: "Teacher Zou, is the air conditioner not enough?"

Zou Tianyan shook his head: "No, the air conditioning is enough, but I just feel... unreal. It's like a dream."

Xu Zhe closed his mouth and stared at the screen expressionlessly.He was reading the bidding emails from Gu Gou and Qiandu.

After watching for a while, he said: "Go on, these giants are so powerful at making money, let me see how generous they can be with their money."

"Okay..." Zou Tianyan sent the email announcing the start of the eighth round of bidding.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door of this classroom again.

A doctoral student ran over and opened the door.

This time, there were two white people and a Chinese who acted as a translator.One person wears glasses, a plaid shirt, and a sparse shiny head, which perfectly fits the stereotype of a Silicon Valley geek.The other one wears a suit and leather shoes, and has a meticulous hairstyle, and looks like a Wall Street elite.

As soon as he came in, the geek said in slightly vague English: "I want to confirm one thing. If we acquire Eureka Company, can you all come to work at the Valley Gou headquarters in the United States?"

Several people present could understand without the need for an interpreter.

Zou Tianyan looked at Xu Zhe.

Xu Zhe spread his hands and said, "You have to ask the teacher about this. Don't look at me."

When the Chinese translator was about to speak, Zou Tianyan waved his hand, indicating that it was not necessary.

Then he said in slightly broken English: "I just got promoted here... to a full professor, so I don't want to leave, right now."

Boss Gu Gou said bluntly: "Have you reached an agreement with Qiandu?"

Zou Tianyan shook his head: "There is no agreement yet, it has been completed. We are waiting for your bid."

Boss Gu Gou was silent for a while, then said "We don't need to wait too long" and turned around and walked out.

Less than 10 minutes later, a new quote was sent.

Zou Tianyan looked at the content of the email and murmured blankly: "Are they crazy? 4800 million yuan..."

Although Xu Zhe's palms were sweaty, he still maintained a calm expression and said, "Qiandu's bid for this round is 4300 million, which is great. Let's start the next round."

Shen Lan suddenly asked: "It's impossible for them to drive hundreds of millions of meters, right?"

Xu Zhe: "That's impossible. They've almost reached their bottom line."

Teacher Zou tremblingly hit the enter key for a new round.

Less than a minute later, the classroom door was knocked open again.

The vice president who flew over from the imperial capital was full of shock and asked straight to the point: "Did Gu Gou really offer that price? Didn't you deceive me?"

Xu Zhe laughed.At this moment, he wanted to say that the price offered by others was more real than Qiandu’s encyclopedia entry.But when the words came to his lips, there were just two simple words: "Yes."

Vice President Qiandu was silent for a few seconds and shook his head: "They are so powerful, we will withdraw."

Xu Zhe smiled and said: "It's a wise choice. In fact, Eureka Company is not necessarily worth such a high price. I believe that Qiandu's continued investment and accumulation in the field of artificial intelligence will usher in a brighter future."

The vice president of Qiandu stared at him and asked: "Are you the founder of Lanzhe Technology? I have read your interview. Are you interested in working at Qiandu?"

Xu Zhe asked, "I'm still in high school. Are you sure you want to hire child labor?"

These words immediately choked the powerful vice president.

Whose child laborer can come up with something big, or even provoke Qiandu and Gugou to bid crazy?
