When I am reborn, I just want to be a top student

Chapter 312 Guest Professor, Business Planning

国内高校众多，一共拥有39所‘985工程’高校和115所的‘211工程’高校，双一流高校147所。

But no matter how it is ranked, Peking University and Tsinghua University are always in a class of their own.

In the minds of people across the country, these two schools also represent the top domestic universities.

However, in the past two years, the admissions work of Peking University and Tsinghua University has encountered some minor problems.

That is, many students who could apply to Peking University and Tsinghua University did not choose them, but chose other schools.

In the first year, no one thought there was anything wrong.

But in the second year, the situation became a little more serious.

Although there is no specific statistics, we can know from the enrollment of Tangdu Jiaotong University in the past two years where those students who rejected Tsinghua and Peking University went.

For Peking University and Tsinghua University, there are countless students from all over the country who want to be admitted to their schools.

Even if there are a few less, it doesn’t matter much. There are tens of millions of candidates taking the college entrance examination every year, so there is no shortage of talent.

Such questions would naturally not reach the ears of the vice-president.

However, after Wang Donglai and Qiu Chengtong jointly revised the original Qiu competition rules, the impact became quite large.

As mentioned before, the domestic mathematics community is divided into several schools.

Now, Wang Donglai has made rapid progress in the field of mathematics and has achieved incredible results. He looks like a leader in the mathematics world for the next few decades.

At this time, the Qiu competition with changed rules immediately attracted many students who were interested in mathematics.

In the first Qiu Competition, Xu Zhibin from Tangdu Jiaotong University won multiple championships.

He almost crushed the students from Peking University, Tsinghua University and other top universities to win the championship.

Wei Shen from the Department of Mathematics at Peking University was given high hopes, and before the competition many people thought that Wei Shen could win multiple championships.

However, the result was exactly the opposite.

By the second session, all major universities had made sufficient preparations and worked hard to obtain a good ranking in the competition.

However, the result did not change.

It was still Xu Zhibin from Tangdu Jiaotong University who swept everyone.

After returning from the competition, contestants from various universities all praised Tangdu Jiaotong University.

After all, everyone has seen Tangdu Jiaotong University’s previous performance in mathematics.

The subject area I am best at is engineering, not theoretical subjects like mathematics.

Such a change naturally makes people think more, and the first person they think of is Wang Donglai.

Needless to say, Wang Donglai's mathematical level is excellent.

Then the sudden surge in the mathematics level of Tangdu Jiaotong University could only be due to Wang Donglai.

At this moment, after meeting Wang Donglai, the two vice presidents of Peking University and Tsinghua University said the first thing that they said was to give Wang Donglai an additional title and identity.

Guest Professor!

Two top universities invited Wang Donglai at the same time.

Not only that, in addition to this title, he was also given treatment no worse than that of the mathematics professors in this school.

For example, it may be an independent office, or teaching requirements, or a position in a mathematics research center.

These are all available.

However, when Wang Donglai heard the conditions offered by the two vice presidents, he was not overjoyed. After a few polite words, he accepted the invitation to be a special professor, but rejected other benefits such as the mathematics research center.

The vice president of Tsinghua University is named Jiang Tao, while the vice president of Peking University is named Ren Hongwei.

Hearing Wang Donglai's refusal, Jiang Tao remained calm and said gently, "Professor Wang, with your mathematical attainments, you should be given corresponding academic treatment in any school. This is a recognition of Professor Wang's academic ability and a respect for academia."

"So, this condition is nothing. If Professor Wang is worried about the impact this position will have on your academic research, then I can guarantee that this will never happen."

"If Professor Wang is worried that this position will affect his position at Tangdu Jiaotong University, I can also contact President Xu."

Jiang Tao's words were spoken with great sincerity and affection.

Ren Hongwei on the side also nodded and said, "Professor Wang, we came here with sincerity. We sincerely hope that Professor Wang can share his academic knowledge with more schools and help more students."

After hearing what the two said, Wang Donglai's thoughts did not change much. He still said calmly and firmly: "It's not for these reasons. I was originally planning to go to Peking University and Tsinghua University for exchange and study after the new year."

"I declined the position at the Mathematics Research Center because I have limited energy. Apart from communication and learning, I don't have much time and energy, so I can only apologize. I hope the two presidents can forgive me for this."

After hearing what Wang Donglai said, Jiang Tao and Ren Hongwei looked at each other and nodded.

To be honest, to be invited by the vice-presidents of Peking University and Tsinghua University is something that many scholars cannot even imagine.

On the other hand, this also reflects Tsinghua and Peking University's emphasis on Wang Donglai and their sincerity.

After the discussion, Wang Donglai did not stay in the capital for long and returned to Tangdu.

I didn’t go to Tangdu Jiaotong University, but went straight to Galaxy Technology.

Galaxy Technology has long become one of the top companies in Tang City and even Qin Province.

This ranking as one of the best is not only reflected in the market value, but also in the evaluation of workers.

Thanks to Wang Donglai's persistence, Galaxy Technology's welfare benefits are extremely high.

Even ordinary employees can get a good salary at Galaxy Technology, and there are even more other benefits.

Of course, Galaxy Technology’s management is also very scientific.

Continuously increasing investment in technology has also enabled Galaxy Technology to build a group of high-quality scientific research teams in just two years.

office.

Wang Donglai called Zhou Rui and Chen Lingyue over.

"How much money is left in the company's account now?" Wang Donglai asked.

Zhou Rui and Chen Lingyue looked at each other, and finally Zhou Rui stood up and said, "The company currently has 21 billion in its account. In addition, there are 3 million in accounts receivable."

Nodding, Wang Donglai did not continue to ask, but asked: "How are you doing with the things I asked you to do in the document I gave you before?"

This time, Zhou Rui was the one who reported. Without thinking or pausing, he said, "Boss, we have contacted Zhang Byte in Beijing five times. The offer has been raised from 10 billion plus % equity to million. According to the company's internal evaluation, this price has reached Byte's bottom line."

Wang Donglai said calmly, "Why hasn't the acquisition been completed yet? Does Zhang Yite have any other requests?"

Zhou Rui nodded and said, “Boss, Zhang Yitian said he wants to talk to you before making a final decision.”

"Okay, help me arrange a time so I can meet Zhang Yidian."

Wang Donglai made the decision immediately.

At the beginning of his rebirth, Wang Donglai thought about intercepting Zhang Bytedance's rise.

But I never expected that I would go further and further astray.

I became more of a scientific researcher rather than a businessman in the business world. The market value of Galaxy Technology continued to rise, but it was not affected much by my previous life.

Instead, it was the academic breakthroughs brought about by the system's capabilities after rebirth that brought about technological innovations, thereby driving up the market value of Galaxy Technology.

However, Wang Donglai did not forget the case in his previous life.

So, the matter of acquiring Zhang Yibyte was passed on.

In this life, due to the emergence of Galaxy Technology, Zhang Byte's development is far less good than in the previous life, so the situation of being acquired occurred.

After reporting on Zhang Yibyte's situation, Zhou Rui talked about another matter.

"Boss, we have prepared technical and talent reserves as you instructed, and they are ready to be put into use at any time."

Wang Donglai nodded again and said, "Since we are ready, let's contact a man named Huang Zheng and arrange a meeting."

Yes.

Apart from following the path of Zhang Yibyte and Huang Yidao, Wang Donglai has no intention of staying any longer.

Although the Pinyidao model is annoying, no one can deny his success.

Being able to become a giant in the tight network of JD.com and Tmall proves the merits of fighting hard.

Of course, Wang Donglai would not copy Huang Yidao's fighting style completely.

However, he still wanted to invite Huang Zheng as a professional manager to help Wang Donglai control the development of Pinyidao.

Let me tell you about a place that many people don’t pay attention to.

Pinyidao has made many and significant achievements in the field of helping farmers.

This is also one of the reasons why Wang Donglai chose to fight.

Zhou Rui didn't know who Huang Zheng Wang Donglai was talking about, but when he heard Wang Donglai's order, he agreed without hesitation, even though he was only given a name and asked to find someone.

Chen Lingyue, who was standing by, was listening to Zhou Rui's report very quietly.

After taking a look at Chen Lingyue, Wang Donglai suddenly said to the two of them, "Are you confused as to why I suddenly want to do this?"

"Although I don't know the reason, I believe in your vision, boss!"

Chen Lingyue answered without hesitation.

Zhou Rui also said sincerely: "I believe in the boss!"

Hearing the two's answers, Wang Donglai smiled, his expression became serious, and he said, "Okay, you two are the people I trust the most in the company, so I won't hide it from you two, and I'll tell you about it."

"Zhou Rui, you are in charge of products such as Innuendo, so you should be able to see how powerful Zhang Byte is, right? Tell me, are Zhang Byte's products worth the price? If our company's products don't exist on the market, what is the estimated valuation of Zhang Byte's products?"

Wang Donglai did not explain it directly, but raised a question.

Hearing this, Zhou Rui began to think, and his eyebrows frowned silently.

After a moment of silence, Zhou Rui said, "Boss, this price is worth it! If it weren't for our company's products, I think the market value would be around 5 billion right now."

"No, your number is a bit too low. Ten billion is definitely a good valuation, and with the huge domestic market, this valuation will soar rapidly!"

Wang Donglai stretched out a finger and said to Zhou Rui and Chen Lingyue.

He was not talking nonsense. In his previous life, Zhang Bytedance had already completed the second round of financing in June 2014, with a financing amount of US$ million and a % stake.

However, by 2016, the valuation had reached $110 billion.

This valuation was not estimated out of thin air, but was obtained by Sequoia and CCB investing US$1 billion and holding 9% of the shares.

In just two years, the market value has increased 22 times.

Moreover, this valuation continued to soar, and finally reached as high as 100 billion.

Many institutions are scrambling to put money in, but none of them have this opportunity.

When talking about the valuation of 10 billion, Wang Donglai still intentionally reduced it a little. Otherwise, if he told them the valuation at this time in the previous life, I'm afraid neither of them would believe it.

But even so, Zhou Rui and Chen Lingyue both looked incredulous.

Seeing this, Wang Donglai did not continue to explain, and continued: "The acquisition of Zhang Byte is only to better develop the company's products. I am investing here. Internet products are positioned as cash cows in my opinion."

"When the time comes, I will separate these products into separate companies, sell shares for cash, and go public."

"And the funds obtained in return are used for scientific research."

Wang Donglai was not worried that the two would have other ideas after hearing this.

Because, what he did was a good thing for both of them.

So, when they heard Wang Donglai say this, they reacted quickly.

After talking about Zhang Yibyte, Wang Donglai talked about Pin Yidao.

"In fact, I don't think highly of pure e-commerce."

"I just want to use the e-commerce platform to do something that JD.com and Tmall haven't done and won't do."

"The vast rural areas hold endless opportunities. I hope to connect colleges and rural areas through a platform."

“Agricultural planting is a large category that requires expert guidance and technical input.”

"Industry-university-research cooperation has been proposed for many years, but it has never been well applied. I want to give it a try."

"Before, I asked you to reach a preliminary agreement with the major universities in Tangdu just for this platform."

"University professors cultivate improved varieties and guide production. Rural areas serve as production bases, farmers produce, use manpower and land as capital investment, and then sell them on e-commerce platforms. Finally, feedback can be given to universities and scholars and professors, completing a cycle."

"It's a high-quality, pesticide-free product. I believe it will have a good market."

"To put it another way, I am still young and have plenty of opportunities to make mistakes. I have the ability to pay for my own ideas."

To be honest, these words were indeed what Wang Donglai thought in his heart, but they were not all.

But Zhou Rui and Chen Lingyue didn't know that. After hearing these words, they couldn't help but be moved.

After having been in contact with Wang Donglai for so long, both of them knew that Wang Donglai was an idealist and a young man with red ideas.

Maybe it’s because of one’s background, or maybe it’s the education one received since childhood.

The two were not sure what the reason was.

But both of them could hear the seriousness and determination in Wang Donglai's tone.

"Boss, count me in!"

"I haven't done anything big in all these years, but I suddenly think this is quite interesting. Boss, please take me with you!"

The two of them said this to Wang Donglai at the same time.

After saying this, the three of them couldn't help but smile at each other.
