Chapter 279: Not Capable Enough? Can I Train Them Myself? "Now, the computers sold by Shenchuan are not pre-installed with Windows XP system, but only with DOS system, to avoid the risk of piracy. If the user really wants to install the operating system, then let the salesperson help install the pirated Windows XP system in his own name. If the customer wants the genuine one, he can only buy it himself." Wu Jun shook his head: "It would be great if we could get the Windows license." Lu Shan tapped the table lightly: "You are right to do this, but in the long run it will still damage the image of the divine ship. In the eyes of outsiders, we are sneaky and not presentable." "We are trying to contact Microsoft and get the license to use Windows 7, but the price they offer is too high. They want one thousand yuan for each machine! We can't afford it if all the profits go to them." Wu Jun has done what he can. Lu Shan understood that the key to this matter was to build his own operating software. Relying on others was like working for others and drawing blood. "Shenchuan will continue to be sold in this way. In fact, it is not much different from before. Other computer companies also operate in this way. I have already started to solve the operating system issue and have already made some progress. After a period of time, there will definitely be changes." Lu Shan gave instructions. "Okay!" Wu Jun agreed very readily. If Lu Shan said there is a clue, then there must be a clue. If Lu Shan can't do anything about it, then what's the point of getting anxious? Besides, the divine ship will definitely be Lu Shan’s business in the future (holding 51% of the shares), and he will definitely care about it more than himself.
After hearing what Wu Jun said, Lu Shan, who had been idle for a few days, felt that he should go and urge Turing's progress. So he entered Singularity Labs and worked with Turing to study the operating system intelligent assistant. With both the framework and programming, Lu Shan felt that he had too few available people. Ji Yue and Ze Meng do have people, but everyone has their own jobs. We can’t just recruit people every time there’s a project. That would be too much hassle. "It seems like it's time to recruit people for expansion. There will be more projects that will require people in the future, so this can be considered as making preparations in advance." Lu Shan did it immediately after he thought of it. The first thing Lu Shan thought of when recruiting was to recruit people from Jiangzhou University, so he found the principal Zhu Yajie. Zemeng itself is a model of school-enterprise cooperation, so it is not too strange that Lu Shan would come to me to recruit people. Zhu Yajie attached great importance to this matter and personally asked Lu Shan what kind of talents he wanted, and he would do his best to cooperate. In Zhu Yajie's view, the better Lu Shan's business did, the better Jiangzhou University would be. Lu Shan's company has brought many projects to the school. There are only a few direct cooperation projects, but there are many projects from outside. These are all projects brought by Lu Shan's fame. Lu Shan is a golden signboard, and everyone comes for him. Zhu Yajie listened, took notes, and repeated: "Mathematics, computer science, English, Chinese language and literature... uh, philosophy?" I understand the previous subjects. If English talents are needed, it should be to expand overseas markets. However, Chinese language and literature is a bit awkward at the beginning. What does it mean to have philosophy in the end? But since Lu Shan made the request, he would just find someone to go. After thinking about it, Zhu Yajie notified all students in the school in the name of an internal announcement, allowing them to submit their resumes to Zemeng Company as long as they were interested and confident. Your temporary status is an intern. After the internship, Zemeng Company can issue an internship certificate. During this period, the school subsidized 500 yuan per month and Zemeng Company subsidized 1500 yuan, totaling 2000 yuan. This was a very attractive salary at the time, not to mention that there was no restriction on student identity; anyone who was a student of Jiangzhou University could give it a try. The response from Jiangzhou University was very enthusiastic. Lu Shan had opened three companies. Bansi and Jiyue were already supernovas in the industry and were expected to become giants in the near future. Therefore, everyone was very confident in Zemeng Company and believed that it could also grow. Therefore, interning in such a company will undoubtedly add a brilliant touch to your resume. With such experience, there is a high probability that you will be able to join Zemeng Company in the future. Even if you cannot get in, you can go to other good companies. Lu Shan organized the company's senior management to interview the students, and some people also came from Ji Yue.
Zheng Kaige, Tao Bo, Wang Ping, Luo Xuan, Ma Lijuan, and Qiao Weiwei all participated in the recruitment. He felt more confident in using his own team. Lu Shan did not discriminate against the people who had been sent before. They all did their job. Lu Shan personally attended the interviews of every student, but the results disappointed him greatly, as everyone's overall abilities were still a little lacking. Although Jiangzhou University is home to Lu Shan, it is only home to Lu Shan. The overall quality of the students is generally not as good as that of students from Shuimu University and Yenching University, so they cannot meet Lu Shan's requirements. However, Lu Shan did not think that these students were much worse than the students from Shuimu and Yenching University. Many students actually have a good ability to understand, which is what we call smart people, but because of their poor family conditions, they do not have access to very good educational resources and therefore do not grow into such outstanding students as Mizuki University. Education is the product of family resources. If others are born in Rome, you will be born to be a beast of burden. Others are expert professors with extremely strong logical thinking who teach middle school classes, but your teacher may only be a graduate of a normal university, and may be a poor student who got in through connections. What value can such a teacher provide in terms of logical thinking? It's just the tactic of doing a lot of questions. If a child can really go to Shuimu University under ordinary conditions, and there is a huge gap between him and others at the beginning, he doesn't need to feel inferior, because that is the gap caused by long-term unequal educational and learning resources. He can catch up in less time. Many students at Jiangzhou University are in the same situation. Their talents are similar to Shuimu's, but they lack guidance. After much deliberation, Lu Shan decided to start from scratch and train his own employees! Specifically, Lu Shan used the 100 million US dollars prize money from the Clay Mathematics Laboratory to establish the Jiangzhou University Natural Science Laboratory at Jiangzhou University. The laboratory is independent and parallel to other colleges. It is not affiliated with any college. Lu Shan is the full-time person in charge of this laboratory. After graduating from this research institute, students can still obtain academic recognition from Jiangzhou University, which can be regarded as a safety net for students and eliminate their worries. The characteristic of this laboratory is that it is composed of outstanding third-year and second-year graduate students because they have already learned the basic knowledge of this stage. If you are really outstanding and pass the assessment, you can be admitted as an exception. After all, Lu Shan is an outlier who skipped grades, and Luo Xuan is also a genius. This condition does not have to be too rigid. All subjects were formulated by Lu Shan, and teachers from Jiangzhou University and technical personnel from Lu Shan's affiliated companies cooperated in teaching, with the aim of researching basic subjects and other advanced subjects. Lu Shan is personally responsible for the selection of students. Others can recommend students, but the final decision on admission is still made by Lu Shan. He insists on strict admission and strict graduation, and he must make sure that everyone is well prepared. Those students who are selected to enter the Natural Science Laboratory will receive comprehensive support, including food, accommodation, and tuition. Regardless of whether they achieve good or bad results in the end, they can get internship opportunities in Lu Shan's affiliated companies. If you demonstrate strong comprehensive abilities, you may also be offered an offer to enter the laboratory. Lu Shan personally selects people, Lu Shan formulates courses, and Lu Shan spends money on training, all in the hope of cultivating talents that meet his own needs. But there was no precedent for this kind of thing, and Lu Shan was unsure when he told Zhu Yajie about it. Unexpectedly, Zhu Yajie was very supportive and said that he would hold a meeting with the school's top management and go through the formal process, and asked Lu Shan to wait for a few days. At the high-level meeting, some people still raised objections. "Isn't this a bit against the rules? I've never seen a university establish a college with the name of a private enterprise, and then the school has to be responsible for the recognition of academic qualifications. Moreover, the courses taught are all set by private individuals. This is simply using the school's resources to cultivate confidants for private individuals." This statement was very harsh, it was almost like pointing at Lu Shan and scolding him for being too ambitious. Why didn't he just give Jiangzhou University to himself? Looking around, Zhu Yajie found that some senior executives probably had the same idea, while some others were quite resistant. After taking a breath, Zhu Yajie patiently explained the reasons for his support. First of all, we must realize that it is not without precedent for private individuals or enterprises to establish colleges in universities. China itself has a completely private university, and many well-known foreign universities are private. It’s just that it’s rare to establish private colleges in public universities in Xia Country, which is why everyone is resisting it.
However, these cases are rare, not without precedent. This matter is acceptable in terms of procedure and legal principles. Besides, what Lu Shan asked for was to build a laboratory, not a college. Obviously, these are two different things in legal terms. The top management thought it made sense. Even though it was essentially a private college, calling it a research lab didn't sound so harsh. Humans are such animals that the same thing is not so contradictory when it is called differently. The course is still from Lushan, the person is still from Lushan, the degree is still backed by Jiangzhou University, the laboratory is the college, but in legal terms it is not a college! Seeing that everyone's expressions had eased a lot, Zhu Yajie gave the second reason. The second reason is obviously more hardcore, that is, Lu Shan has hard power! After being selected by him, what he teaches must be more hardcore, which can enable students to get better employment opportunities and realize their own life value. "Lu Shan has made amazing achievements in computers, mechanics, materials, mathematics, etc., and his papers are extremely important. If such a person teaches a class, how much do you think students will benefit from it?" Everyone couldn't help but start thinking. All along, everyone thought that Lu Shan was just a student and too young. But putting aside these external conditions, Lushan is obviously an academic giant and worthy of learning from. "If! We want to introduce a professor of Lu Shan's level, what conditions do you think we have to offer to get him to come? Is the salary affordable? Can the experimental equipment meet the requirements? In terms of academic atmosphere, team quality, and local scientific research transformation capabilities, can Jiangzhou University meet them?" Zhu Yajie asked a soul-searching question, and no one said yes. In fact, it is indeed not possible, otherwise Jiangzhou University would not have such a low sense of presence. "The last reason is my own selfish motive, but also my public motive! Lu Shan is so famous that others are begging him to teach, and so am I! The students he teaches are also students of Jiangzhou University. I dare not imagine how much honor these outstanding students will bring to Jiangzhou University in the future. With these honors, Jiangzhou University will be able to attract more talents, don't you think so?" Zhu Yajie said sincerely. Seeing that everyone was nodding, Zhu Yajie suddenly laughed: "In fact, I just realized that maybe these students who applied for Lu Shan's laboratory valued the laboratory experience more than the academic recognition of Jiangzhou University. Maybe they would rather have Lu Shan's laboratory issue them a separate diploma instead of a diploma from Jiangzhou University." It's heartbreaking, but there seems to be no way to refute it. Lu Shan is a new generation of scientific idol. Almost all young people take him as their role model. This is the atmosphere in school and other places as well. If I say I graduated from Jiangzhou University, how can it be better to say I graduated from Lushan? I can brag about this for the rest of my life. Even if he is not selected by Lu Shan in the end, it would be quite awesome to enter a few more rounds of assessment. The school’s top brass no longer had any objections and all agreed to establish Lushan’s science laboratory, which was essentially a college. Thus, Lu Shan’s Natural Science Laboratory was formally established, and its full name is the Silicon Natural Science Laboratory. The location is an old and unused teaching building of Jiangzhou University. This teaching building has a strong former Soviet style. The dark red exterior walls are like the overall color of the Kremlin. The windows are all green iron-framed. Each window has three square glasses with a side length of 50 cm. At first glance, it is one of the buildings built with Soviet aid in the early days of Jiangzhou University. The good thing is that the garden here is quite large, with green trees and lush flowers and plants. The disadvantage is that it is too remote, otherwise why would it be idle? It is just too remote and inconvenient for everyone. But Lu Shan likes this place very much, it is quiet here, it is the right place to study. It is inconvenient but also easy, just need to take a break to repair the road surface. Upon closer inspection, we found that the road surface was made of bluestone, a quality that would not deteriorate for thousands of years, but it was prone to moss. The teaching building is located in this independent garden. From a distance, it really looks like a scripture repository.
Within two days, the garden, roads, and even the teaching building were cleaned. What’s interesting is that, apart from repairing the roads and planting flowers and plants, which were done by the school workers, cleaning the teaching buildings and transporting the garbage were spontaneous actions of the students. The school just spread the word that Lu Shan was going to set up a research lab, and members would be selected from students of the school first. Hundreds of people came, and those who came late couldn't even find work to do. Instead, they helped the renovation construction team. As for the motivation, it was probably to leave a good impression on Lu Shan in advance, and also to get extra points when the school recommended him. The school was also very helpful and registered all the people who did the work. As for whether it will work or not, that is Lu Shan’s business. He is so enthusiastic, so we should at least give him some face, right? (End of this chapter)
