Cities: starting from saving people on the road

--

I made a temporary trip today and wasted time.

Continue to rush to work... huh?

Chapter 541

Ma Yang didn't refuse anymore, in fact, he felt a sense of failure in his heart at the moment.

Because he felt that he was doing very badly.

Even if it's selling himself, even if it's selling goods, he should have enough plans and enough words to attract others, but he only has a first-year junior high school, and nothing else.

Perhaps, as the teacher said, I am actually more suitable to be a pure researcher.

If it wasn't for the fact that the previous research project has ended and there is no money to continue the next research, he would not want to participate in this forum at all. With this time, wouldn't it be good to do more research by himself?

In fact, his teacher also suggested that he could find a way to apply for some funds for him to apply for research projects, but Ma Yang felt that he could not always bother the teacher, not to mention that the funds for the next research were not at 01:30, and he also I don't know what the result will be after the money is spent. If I screw up my own research, wouldn't it be the same as the teacher?

Because of this, Ma Yang resolutely refused the teacher's help and came to participate in this forum exchange meeting.

A question from a famous investor made him feel a little at a loss. Just when he was disappointed and blamed himself, he received a call from Zhao Yi.

Although he felt that the mysterious Mr. Zhao who invested in Feiyi might not eventually invest in his research that could not see the future, but he was still willing to meet and talk.

In addition to himself, he also has a group of like-minded companions. Everyone is trying to find a way to find funds. If no funds are found, this research will only temporarily stop.

No one wants to give up!

They all firmly believe that in the next few decades, it should be the time when artificial intelligence will be generous and brilliant, and now it is at a historical turning point.

If they do well, they can make history and change history, but if they miss this period, there will be no such opportunity again.

The level of intelligence in the first grade of junior high school is actually much higher than everyone imagined, but there are still big flaws that need to be improved, and this requires a lot of money.

In the hotpot restaurant, when Ma Yang saw Zhao Yi, his first reaction was whether he had identified the wrong person, and his second reaction was whether he had been deceived.

too young!

At this age, he looks like a student.

Zhao Yi saw through Ma Yang's thoughts, and smiled: "I know what you think, I am indeed a student, a freshman in Jiangzhou Technology and Business University, Zhao Yi, but I didn't lie to you, I do have an investment company. "

Ma Yang frowned: "I want a lot of investment..."

Zhao Yi smiled and said, "I have tens of billions. To be precise, I have 67 billion in cash."

Ma Yang's eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at Zhao Yi in disbelief.

How can this be?

Even if he is the son of the richest man in the Dragon Kingdom, it is impossible for him to control so much money before he graduates from university, let alone a freshman!

Zhao Yi smiled and said: "I have always made money in the US stock market and futures market, and I have never disclosed my property, so even my classmates don't know my property."

Looking at Zhao Yi's face, Ma Yang's eyes slowly brightened: "Do you really have billions?"

Zhao Yi said affirmatively: "Of course, even if I invest in you, then we have to sign a formal contract, and we will see the money at that time. Before that, you don't need to pay any research results, so you don't have to worry about me being a rookie you. ........."

Hearing what Zhao Yi said, Ma Yang immediately felt that it made sense.

Anyway, I only have half-studied topics in my hands, and there is a semi-finished first year of junior high school. Other than that, there is nothing valuable, as long as I don't see money and don't give up.

At most, please ask the teacher to look over the contract to prevent contract traps, and there will be no problem.

Ma Yang stared at Zhao Yi: "Are you really willing to invest in me?"

Zhao Yi said with a smile: "No hurry, we're all here, chat while eating, at least try our Jiangzhou special hotpot, if you don't eat a meal, it's tantamount to coming in vain."

They come, the security.

Ma Yang doesn't talk nonsense, anyway, he is a big man, is he still afraid of being robbed of his wealth?

"Would you like some wine?"

Ma Yang shook his head: "I don't drink, drinking will affect my thinking."

Zhao Yi praised: "Not bad, I can tell that you seem to be a very pure researcher..."

Ma Yang smiled bitterly: "Yes, I actually don't want to come to this exhibition at all, but there is no other way. Speaking of it, I still blame myself. I didn't make a decent proposal or anything, and I couldn't give it. The profit time that others expect, so failure is also normal..."

Zhao Yi smiled slightly: "It's all about eating and chatting anyway, if you don't mind, tell me about your research, your plan, how about it?".

Chapter 542

Ma Yang was not polite, he ate meat and drank drinks - because it was too spicy.

Hot pot, for people from other provinces who can't eat spicy food, is a real pain and joy.

"Probably so..."

When Ma Yang talked about his own research, he didn't seem unfamiliar at all, and he talked about it smoothly, including their research path, current predicament and their expectations.

Zhao Yi summed it up and said: "That is to say, you need a large amount of funds to continue research, but you are not sure what level of research you will reach in the future, and you don't know whether it can be turned into a profitable product, right?"

Ma Yang was a little embarrassed. After all, he wanted money, but he couldn't give him anything in return. How many people would be willing to invest in such an investment?

"It's almost like this, but my teacher also said that as long as the research continues, there will definitely be good results. After all, no matter which industry the artificial intelligence is used in, its core is actually the same. As long as the artificial intelligence we study reaches the end If it is smart enough and powerful enough, it can be used in various industries. If it is really successful, it only needs to make some changes and optimize the algorithm according to the requirements of various industries..."

Zhao Yi thought for a while and said: "You mean that what you develop is the core, just like the little Wuxiang Kungfu in martial arts novels. After mastering it, you can display the unique skills of various schools..."

"Yes, yes, that's probably what it means!"

Ma Yang's eyes lit up, and he had to say that Zhao Yi's summary was very good.

Zhao Yi thought about it in his mind: "If I invest, what can I get?"

Ma Yang stretched out his hand and scratched his head: "What do you want?"

Zhao Yi smiled and said: "Those who invest in your research naturally want your final research results 100% of the time. Otherwise, who would invest? After all, investment is not for public welfare. All investment is to get rich returns , and your most valuable and only valuable is your research results."

Zhao Yi guessed that Ma Yang would refuse without hesitation, but after hearing Zhao Yi's answer, Ma Yang didn't refuse immediately, but fell into thinking.

After being silent for dozens of seconds, Ma Yang stared at Zhao Yi and said, "We have done years of research and achieved a lot of research results. If you continue to invest in our research and all the research results belong to you, we can get what?"

Some talk!

Zhao Yi thought for a while: "Because artificial intelligence will continue to develop, I reckon that if you continue to study, you may study for a lifetime... Then let me ask you a question, do you want to continue to study, or do you want to study Sell ​​something for money, or research something and start your own business as your own boss?"

Ma Yang said seriously: "We are a group of like-minded people who gather together because of love. We hope to create a new era of intelligence. I know that many companies are now researching this area, but we all believe that we are no better than Others are inferior... We are not expected to be bosses, we are all technicians engaged in research, maybe what everyone wants is a stable and long-term research environment and a generous salary..."

Zhao Yi smiled and said: "If that's the case, then it's easy to solve. How many people do you have in your R&D team? I mean researchers, the essential ones."

"Eighteen."

Ma Yang replied quickly: "We are researchers in various industries of artificial intelligence, because artificial intelligence is actually very comprehensive, and it is not something that can be done by ourselves..."

Zhao Yi smiled and said: "Then there are two ways now. First, I will use money to buy your previous research results, and then invest in your continued research. Even if I hire you to work for me, all the research results belong to me." , you no longer have any ownership rights, don't worry, you are all cutting-edge talents, and the remuneration is absolutely generous."

"Second, we cooperate to establish an institution like the Institute of Artificial Intelligence. Your team plus all the existing research results in your hands will be used as shares. I will invest to ensure the smooth progress of your research. In the future, you will have research results. These Whether the research results are sold, or we find a way to turn them into income, we also share the income according to the equity ratio..."

After listening to Zhao Yi's two methods, Ma Yang was obviously moved.

Because no matter which method is used, their research can be guaranteed to continue, and they will have a good income.

Ma Yang thought for a moment: "If you want to do research, it must be in the capital, because a lot of equipment or some important experiments can only be in the capital, otherwise, the investment in all-round equipment is definitely not a small amount, and there are many academic discussions. , it is also the most convenient here, if it is in other places, it will be much more troublesome... ".

Chapter 543

Zhao Yi nodded understandingly. He knew the background of this group of people from Longguo Academy of Sciences. It is a super powerful place. It is backed by a big tree to enjoy the shade. Even if you do research by yourself, there are so many fierce people and professional laboratories here. , What kind of test or other things to do, it is naturally much more convenient, if it is in Jiangzhou, it may not be necessary to fly to the capital?

"no problem."

Ma Yang asked: "How much do you plan to invest?"

Zhao Yi smiled and said, "How much do you want?"

Ma Yang thought for a while: "At least 5000 million."

Zhao Yi smiled without even frowning: "Okay, let's calculate with 5000 million, what percentage of your people and your research results now, if I continue to spend money in the future, will your percentage be proportional?" Diluted?"

Ma Yang obviously couldn't make a decision all at once, so he hesitated and said, "I can't answer you right away, I need to discuss with my team before I can give you an answer!"

Zhao Yi was not in a hurry: "No problem, just discuss it slowly and let me know the result."

Ma Yang looked at Zhao Yi's face with a slightly curious expression: "I'm curious, why are you willing to invest?"

Zhao Yi said with a smile: "Of course it is to make money, but other investors are more obsessed with the means of quick cash, because as we all know, although artificial intelligence has been hyped for several years, real intelligence is far from being achieved. , not much to say, just a voice input method, I haven’t figured it out yet, and people who have a slightly different accent can’t get it. , but there is no reason for investment interest...〃々..."

"Several major domestic giants have also invested huge sums of money in the research of artificial intelligence, such as the popular unmanned intelligent driving. Even the foreign giant Tesla is also due to the technical shortcomings of artificial intelligence, which leads to the imperfection of Tesla's automatic driving. Under the development plan for the continuous development of artificial intelligence, domestic Baidu's driverless cars are also developed based on Baidu's brain."

"Everyone knows that once artificial intelligence achieves a qualitative development, artificial intelligence products will quickly flood every corner of society. Artificial intelligence will be incorporated into mobile phones, autonomous vehicles, home service robots, and Factory production lines, etc., the improvement of various industrial chains will also bring huge and rich profits, which is why there has been no huge breakthrough, but the reason why several giants have continued to invest is because of its huge future commercial value.”

"I am willing to invest in your research plan, and I am not in a hurry to recover the benefits in the short term. On the one hand, I am optimistic about the huge commercial value of artificial intelligence in the future, and on the other hand, it is also because of you, because you are a real talent and worthy of my investment."

"It's not so much that I invest in the future of artificial intelligence, but rather that I invest in your future."

Ma Yang was stunned.

He never expected that the reason why Zhao Yi invested was because of himself!

"You know me?"

Zhao Yi smiled: "Naturally, your teacher is Gao Yan, an expert in artificial intelligence. You are 25 years old this year, a graduate student at Longguo Academy of Sciences. You have participated in many research projects with your teacher before..."

"It's not important to know these things after a little inquiring. After all, whether I believe you or not has to be expressed with money in the end. Giving you money to let you continue to study, isn't that the greatest trust?"

What Zhao Yi said was really not a lie.

Artificial intelligence is hotly hyped now, but in fact there are no eye-catching products. Although some artificial intelligence that seems to be very black technology has appeared, the level is not high enough, and it is very difficult to realize it. Add some added value, such as a voice input system for mobile phones.

Voice input is not artificial intelligence, but the association function behind it is artificial intelligence. It needs to judge the speaker's tone, sense of language, habits, etc. to give more appropriate results.

Investing in this is really just investing in the future.

Maybe it's a big pit.

But Zhao Yi doesn't care, investing hundreds of millions in an S-level talent judged by the system, it's worth it!

If you don't get anything done, you will lose if you lose.

If it is done, it may not be a matter of hundreds of millions, but an industry of tens of billions or hundreds of billions. (good dragon)

Zhao Yi spoke frankly, and Ma Yang felt that Zhao Yi was telling the truth.

Play whatever you want, you have to get paid!

If you take the money, it is reliable!

Just bragging and not taking money is just talking, it's unreliable!

It should obviously be very good to have such a partner who knows the situation but is willing to invest in the future.

Regarding the two investment models proposed by Zhao Yi, Ma Yang personally prefers the second one. As a researcher, he naturally believes in its great value, and selling out a deal is obviously a short-sighted behavior.

But the other party is willing to spend 5000 million, and is willing to invest money in the future. I am afraid it is impossible to leave too many shares for myself and others...

Chapter 544

Naturally, the matter of investment cannot be clarified in three or two days, even if it is a group of researchers, but who doesn't want to have more control over the future?

Zhao Yi was not in a hurry, as a graduate student like Ma Yang might not be noticed by many people.

In this era when PhDs are everywhere, do you study artificial intelligence in a research institute?

Even if those giants knew about this matter, they might just smile and feel that it was not worth mentioning.

So they are the dishes in Zhao Yi's hands, and sooner or later they will not escape.

After Ma Yang shared the news with other members of the team, there were differences in the team. Some people agreed to sell a wave of big money first, share the money with everyone, and then work with a high salary. Isn't this risk-free?
