Chapter 127 Acquisition encounters obstacles(1/2)
Those who work in technology are very pragmatic.
In Wang Yan's plan, if he wants to run the two laboratories normally, the number of researchers in each laboratory should not be less than 100.
How can someone be so easy to recruit?
Therefore, even if some of them have minor problems of one kind or another, he can tolerate them as long as the demands made are not too excessive.
Let’s set up the laboratory structure first.
Zhang Shuo has a different view.
"I said, let's not just limit our sights to the small circle of Binhai City. In the academic field, we can go to well-known universities across the country. I don't believe we can't find suitable talents."
"I have also considered what you said. I am planning to take the team to run across the country after the new year." During the Spring Festival holiday, Wang Yan will also lead the R&D team to handle the Spring Festival marketing activities.
I definitely can't spare the time.
"That's right."
Zhang Shuo nodded in approval, "In addition to universities, there are also companies, such as Qiandu Group and the search subsidiary of Fox Group. There must be many big names in the search field."
In 2011, Qiandu Group was still very prosperous.
"Company's R&D personnel generally have signed non-competition agreements and are difficult to poach," Wang Yan reminded.
"Then...ahem..."
Zhang Shuo just subconsciously wanted to say that if he couldn't recruit people, he would acquire the company.
Another thought.
Needless to say, Qiandu Group, even the Fox Group, is now one of the top five domestic Internet companies, a real giant.
Not to mention Qinghe Technology.
Even the entire Sprout Holdings is a younger brother in front of the Fox Group.
It's expanded.
"If it doesn't work, just go to the beautiful country to recruit people." Zhang Shuo thought of Wu Sheyuan who was still on a business trip in the beautiful country, "There are so many international students in the beautiful country, find a way to invite them to the country to do research and development. As long as
Even if you have real talent and knowledge, it’s not impossible to make an exception and keep your salary and benefits in line with those in Silicon Valley.”
Just so arrogant.
"Okay, I admit it, I am too small."
Wang Yan also realized that he seemed to be too dependent on Dean Tong's relationship. Recently, he had been staying in the company doing research and development, but his horizons had not expanded as the company's status improved.
It’s very worthy of reflection.
"I read the annual budget reported by Qinghe Technology. The R&D budget is too general and the budget is seriously insufficient. My opinion is that Qinghe Technology's R&D expenditure next year will be at least more than 50 million."
Zhang Shuo mentioned another thing incidentally.
"I will try my best."
The big boss Zhang Shuo is willing to spend money on research and development, but Wang Yan, the CTO, is under pressure.
I'm afraid I won't be able to spend the money.
In the field of R&D, it is not just about throwing money. First, there must be corresponding R&D talents, secondly, there must be a matching R&D platform, and finally, there must be a big star taking the lead.
otherwise.
It’s really possible that you can’t accomplish anything just because you have so much money.
"It's not about trying your best, but it must be completed." Zhang Shuo gave the death order.
Since Zhang Shuo's expectations are budding and he is unwilling to become the second Tengda, he must make arrangements in the R&D field in advance, make efforts in advance, and tilt as much funds as possible to the R&D end.
Warwick is the best example.
"What you said reminds me of something."
"What's up?"
"The teacher mentioned to me before that the government intends to set up a key laboratory related to computer science at Binhai University. Do you want us to participate?" Wang Yan said.
"If you can participate, of course it's no problem."
Dean Tong's willingness to make connections is also for the long-term interests of the School of Computer Science.
Isn't this opportunity just around the corner?
"Merratory Holdings can use the name of Chunmiao Fund to donate a certain amount of funds to Binhai University for the preparation, operation and maintenance of the laboratory. The premise is that Qinghe Technology can also have the opportunity to participate."
The combination of industry, academia and research is the most efficient R&D mechanism.
Donating to Binhai University was not Zhang Shuo’s impromptu idea, but had already been planned.
It’s not that it’s for the convenience of graduate school.
The significance of the establishment of the Chunmiao Fund is not only to help poor and disadvantaged groups, but also to support domestic education and scientific research.
Reinvest the huge profits that Germination has captured from society into the field of education.
This was confirmed.
Zhang Shuo’s corporate philosophy of “taking from the people and using it for the people” was mentioned before.
"That's it."
Wang Yan is also very happy to see this happen, "With your promise, I will communicate with the teacher again. However, don't have too high expectations. Even if we pay, the number of participants will be very limited."
There is still an invisible gap between academic circles and enterprises.
"It all depends on people."
Zhang Shuo himself didn't have high expectations, so he just regarded it as a contribution to the country's education.
…………
After Wang Yan left, Zhang Shuo rubbed his forehead.
Some headache.
Wang Yan's setbacks in recruiting talents were actually setbacks in the academic circle.
Obvious.
The current buds have very limited appeal to high-level talents, especially senior researchers. Even if they offer high salaries, they may not be able to attract real phoenixes.
On the contrary, a giant like Tenda is more attractive to senior research talents.
That's very ironic.
"If we want to open up the situation, we have to do a whole lot of work after the Spring Festival."
Of course Zhang Shuo will not sit still and wait for death.
If Weixin can always maintain an advantage in the competition with Tenda and the number of users exceeds the 100 million mark, then perhaps it can really open up a gap in the inherent pattern of the Internet.
Just wait.
After this encounter, Zhang Shuo's intention to attend the WALLI Intelligent Manufacturing Cooperation Signing Ceremony suddenly faded away, and he decided to arrange for Jiang Yue to attend.
I won't go there myself.
Because there is no point in going there, and those big names in the field of robotics may not really think highly of him.
Too lazy to be vain and conciliatory.
It would be better to wait until Walli Intelligent Manufacturing is short of funds, then inject capital again and obtain the controlling stake of Walli Intelligent Manufacturing, and then realize his ambition.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Just when I was thinking about Jiang Yue, Jiang Yue knocked on the door and came in.
"Mr. Zhang, the remote video call with Meimei Country has been debugged."
"Let's go!"
Zhang Shuo got up and walked towards the small conference room.
A projector has been set up in the conference room, and remote video software is used to connect to the beautiful country.
The main thing is Wu Sheyuan.
"Let's get started."
Zhang Shuo picked up his phone and looked at the time.
It's 10 a.m. now, and it's already 7 p.m. in Beautiful Country.
The time is just right.
What the two parties discussed was also about the acquisition of Raven Studio in Silicon Valley.
"Okay, Mr. Zhang, the current situation is like this."
Wu Sheyuan began to report some specific situations he learned after arriving in Silicon Valley.
"Ruiwen Studio focuses on research in the field of cloud computing. Including the person in charge, Du Ruiwen, there are a total of 82 researchers, more than half of whom are master's students."
In terms of scale, it can only be considered a medium-sized studio at best.
