Back to 1995

Chapter 1230

Unlike the Bell Labs headquarters, which has been renovated and refurbished, Stanzen's office still retains the style of a few years ago, and is even a bit older. Obviously, Stanzen is not in his own office, so he spent an extra sum of money.

Just like when Song Yang came here for the first time, Stanzen still asked Song Yang, "Water or coffee?!"

After asking, Stanzen couldn't help but smile, then poured a glass of water and put it in front of Song Yang.

"Song, I heard people in Silicon Valley say that you are an expert in programming in the industry, but you are completely different from the people there!"

Just like the rumors of Song Yang in the baseball world, in the field of programmers, Song Yang is also rumored to be a master at the same level as the founder of JAVA in Silicon Valley. It is rumored that the structure and design of the initial versions of Double-Click, ICQ and other websites are Song Yang Even if Song Yang didn't make many moves, it still made Song Yang's reputation in this industry extremely resounding.

"Song, I remember the first time we met, maybe five years ago, when you showed up at Bell Labs and told me that you were going to be an investor in Bell Labs, my first feeling was that someone else Just kidding on April Fools' Day!

but……"

Today, Stanzen is a bit rambling, and from time to time digs up the past, but Song Yang didn't interrupt Stanzen's words, just listened quietly with a smile on his face.

"Finally, God bless, Bell Labs didn't go bankrupt in my hands, making me a sinner in the technology industry, otherwise the guy who bankrupted Bell Labs will be engraved on the tombstone!"

Stanzen said with a laugh, and then said to Song Yang seriously, "Song, thank you for everything you have done for Bell Labs!"

Although Song Yang also obtained a lot of wool from Bell Labs, took away a large number of patents and technologies from Bell Labs, and asked Bell Labs to train talents for companies such as Alcatel Mobile Phone and ICQ, Stanzen still thanked Song Yang Yang, compared to the investors of Bell Labs in the past ten years, Song Yang is already considered the best. He gave Bell Labs sufficient research and development funds, did not interfere with Bell Labs' research and development, and let those big cows You can develop projects according to your own wishes, and Bell Labs has returned to the throne of the Holy Land of scientific research!

Song Yang sighed, "Dr. Stanzen, Bell Labs needs you."

Just like Song Yang is to Bell Labs, no matter how bad Song Yang is, he is better than the previous gold masters who wanted to squeeze Bell Labs dry. For America and even the global technology industry, Taishan Beidou, as long as he sits at Bell Labs, he can suppress all the thorns, and let countless experts in technology and academic fields come to Bell Labs in a steady stream!

Stanzen shook his head with a smile, and looked back at the Bell Labs outside the window. The scenes that had lasted for several years once made Stanzen feel that the scenery of Bell Labs was monotonous, but now he couldn't get enough of it.

"People have to do things that are within their own cognition and ability, so as not to fail and be frustrated. The current Bell Labs is already my limit. I need to retire, and I need to live a retired life.

Song, you don't want to be a bad old man who dies as the president of Bell Labs! "

Taking a deep look at Stanzen in front of him, Song Yang knew that he had made up his mind to retire, and that he could become a giant in the technology industry. Stanzen's character was also paranoid, and no one could stop what was decided. .

"Of course, you deserve it, Dr. Stanzen!"

Song Yang pondered for a while, knowing that Stanzen's mind had been made up, and Song Yang would not stop him any longer. It would be better to make a good story about a big funder and a top scientific researcher, which is good for Stanzen and good for Song Yang.

"Alcatel Mobile, ICQ, PA Semiconductor and other companies will jointly donate a bonus of no less than 2000 million US dollars to Bell Labs as a reward for Dr. Stanzen's hard work for Bell Labs for so many years!

In addition, Alcatel Mobile and other companies will cooperate with Bell Labs to recommend Dr. Stanzen to the Federal Academy of Sciences, the Federal Inventors Hall of Fame and other institutions! "

Hearing that companies such as Alcatel mobile phones gave him bonuses instead of using the R&D funds of Bell Labs, Stanzen readily accepted, without any embarrassment, he is not a saint, he has to eat, right, as long as it is useless Bell The research and development funds of the laboratory, and the rest, no matter who gave him a bonus, Stanzen took it with peace of mind.

Besides, for so many years, the patents and technologies transferred by Bell Labs to companies such as Alcatel mobile phones have earned tens of billions of dollars, and Stanzen was awarded 2000 million dollars in bonuses for retirement, and Not too much.

Of course, this is also buying horse bones with a lot of money. With the help of Stanzen, it will also be a demonstration for other big names in the technology industry. Song Yang will never lose money to such a top technology expert!

As for recommending him to the Federal Inventors Hall of Fame, Stanzahn has no objection. It is related to his posthumous name. Song Yang said it for him, and it will save him from pulling down his old face and running around to make connections. For Stanzahn, his career ended well.

"Does Dr. Stanzen have any recommendation for the next head of Bell Labs?!" Song Yang asked Stanzen according to the usual practice, if he had any candidates for him.

Stanzen hesitated for a moment. Now, Bell Labs is completely controlled by Song Yang, and all the shares are in the hands of Song Yang, Alcatel Mobile, America Telecom, ICQ and other companies.

The candidate for the next head of Bell Labs, recommended by Stanzen, and appointed by Song Yang, the biggest difference is where the head sits.

For example, when Stanzen was in charge of Bell Labs, although he had to cooperate with the request of the big sponsor, Stanzen's prestige and status ensured that Bell Labs was independent and would not be affected too much. It can ensure that the R&D personnel in the laboratory will not be disturbed to the greatest extent, and can carry out research and development according to their will, even if the project is destined to be unprofitable from the very beginning.

And if Song Yang appoints the president of Bell Labs, he must put the interests of the big benefactor first. The research and development of the entire lab must cooperate with Alcatel mobile phones, American Telecom, etc., which cannot make money. , may not allocate R&D funds, or even cut them off directly!

Stanzen knew that he was retiring, and it was best to let go of everything at this time, but he couldn't completely let go of Bell Labs. After a while, Stanzen hesitated to say a name, "Paul Alivisatos, now the top technology expert in the global chemical industry, has been called the father of nano by the media.

If he is willing to come, he can definitely take charge of Bell Labs, and even take Bell Labs to a higher level! "

Stanzen cast a glance at Song Yang, and he said the candidate he recommended, but it was Song Yang's business whether he wanted Alivisatos to be the president of Bell Labs.

Like Stanzen, Alivisatos has a very high status in the academic industry. If he is the leader, he will never let Bell Labs become a puppet and a cash machine. At that time, Alcatel Mobile, America Telecom, It is simply impossible for PA Semiconductor and others to hollow out Bell Labs.

"I will invite Alivisatos to join Bell Labs, and I will offer him high enough conditions, as long as he is willing to come!"

When Song Yang heard the name of Alivisatos, he just pondered for a moment, then smiled and said to Stanzen.

Song Yang hopes that Alivisatos is a person with a temper and personality. Song Yang does not want Bell Labs to be hollowed out. Bell Labs can only provide Alcatel mobile phones with continuous research and development of new technologies and patents. Waiting to bring more benefits is not what Song Yang wants to get.

"boom!"

Outside the office, there was a sudden burst of deafening cheers, and even inside the office, there was no way to stop the strong cheers.

"Graphene won the Nobel Prize in Physics!"

The office door was pushed open by Stanzen's assistant, and he rushed in to report to Stanzen on the newly announced Nobel Prize in Physics.

Hearing that graphene won the Nobel Prize, Stanzen finally showed a smile on his face. This was the best gift at his retirement banquet, and it was also the last honor he left for Bell Labs.

When Song Yang walked out of the office, he saw a large group of media rushing towards the conference room where Gaim and Novoselov were, wanting to interview the two new Nobel laureates.

Song Yang also applauded with a smile. It is estimated that the media all over the world are reporting the news that graphene won the award. Song Yang feels that the price of graphite mines can also rise a wave. Graphene has won awards, and graphite mines have increased 50% is not too much, otherwise, wouldn't you look down on the strength of the Nobel Prize!
"Today's Nobel Prize in Physics was unveiled. The Nobel Prize Committee of the Royal Swedish Society announced that graphene won the Nobel Prize in Physics. The youngest physics prize winner in history was born. Novoselov won the prize..."

The news of graphene winning the Nobel Prize was reported by the media all over the world like the wind.

On Nasdaq and other stock markets around the world, graphene stocks are skyrocketing. Originally, the Alcatel P5 mobile phone did not use graphene technology, which made many people doubt whether graphene is a scam, but now, all doubts The smoke cleared.

If it is really a scam, can you still win the Nobel Prize in Physics? !

You know, all the people who can win this award are technologies and inventions that have an important impact on human society and will soon have an important impact on human society. Those are the things discussed by a group of smartest people in the world. Can it be fake? !
The news of the award just came out here, and the Global Graphene Foundation, which is controlled by several companies such as Alcatel Mobile Phone and American Telecom, immediately announced that due to production capacity, the price of graphite mines will increase by 45%. At that time, the price of graphite ore had already doubled by nearly ten times. Graphite ore was suddenly worthless at the beginning, and it was fired into the current gold ore.

"This is a gift from God to mankind. We just discovered it. We believe that this is the best gift that mankind has received in the new century. Finally, one day, the era of graphene will come!"

Gaim and Novoselov, holding the microphone with ICNC TV LOGO, delivered their award acceptance speeches in front of the media.

This speech has been seen by countless companies developing graphene technology, and of course there are companies that have given up on graphene research and development.

The newly-appointed Nokia president Kallasvuo Kallasvuo was a little entangled for a while when he saw the overwhelming reports on graphene in the media. When Kallasvuo took office, he could adjust the R&D funds and allow Nokia to develop other projects.

But now, graphene is so hot again, it seems that the graphene frenzy can come at any time, which made Kallasvuo also tangled, and he finally realized the difficulty of Ollila, the kind of one step forward, one step back into the abyss The feeling is really powerless.

When Kallasvuo was struggling, another Nokia staff released a piece of the latest news report.

"Alcatel Mobile announced that it has developed a graphene highly oriented thermal film, and will officially use this technology on the next generation flagship mobile phone. It is expected to improve the cooling performance of the mobile phone by more than 28%!"

At this time, Alcatel's mobile phone also added a fire. The rumored graphene technology finally came out after a long wait. This is also the first company in the world to officially develop graphene technology.

The news of the Nobel Prize, graphene heat-conducting film, and one after another have shaken the entire technology industry, and it also makes people feel that the frenzy of graphene seems to be really coming.

Nokia's executives all looked at Kallasvuo, waiting for the new president's decision, whether they still don't follow the trend of graphene, or if they don't follow, Nokia will really fall behind on graphene.

Kallasvuo was panting heavily, and the battle between heaven and man was in his mind. Finally, he shook his head. Ollila terminated the research and development of graphene at the price of retirement.

Ten thousand steps back, if the graphene era really comes, then Kallasvuo can also blame Ollila. As for what to do without graphene technology, what else can be done, buy it from companies such as Alcatel mobile phones, but there is no At the last step, Kallasvuo decided to make a decision, and no longer let Nokia invest money in the graphene project!
At the risk of losing his entire career, Kallasvuo continued not to develop graphene, but Kallasvuo dared to bet that other mobile phone manufacturers and technology companies did not dare to bet, especially when Alcatel mobile phones suddenly threw out graphene thermal film. At that time, the entire technology industry started an arms race against graphene again, and countless dollars were thrown at the graphene project.

When the science and technology industry was in trouble because of graphene, after Song Yang came out of Bell Labs, he went directly to the private hospital where Elsa was, and Elsa had already been sent to the delivery room at this time.
