Reborn since 1993

Chapter 1074 Don’t let the wealth go to outsiders

"Given Professor Liu's condition, I think it won't be a problem for him to run the joint laboratory for a few more years!"

Li Dongling tried to keep Liu Youguo, saying that if he was willing to work for a few more years, Li Dongling would definitely support him.

Liu Youguo shook his head and said, "It's time to go. I have to accept my old age. If I go now, I can still live a peaceful life for a few more years.

Now the scale of the joint laboratory is getting bigger and bigger, and we need someone else to take charge. I can’t keep up with the energy!"

Liu Youguo is actually very clear about his situation. On the one hand, he is old, and he has to teach at Wuhan Jiaotong University and be in charge of a joint laboratory. Even with someone to assist him, he feels that he does not have enough energy.

Moreover, the scale of the Hanxi Joint Laboratory is getting bigger and bigger, and there are a lot of things to deal with, and he feels many things are difficult.

It will be beneficial for all parties to retreat now!
Seeing Liu Youguo's firm attitude, Li Dongling knew that he had made up his mind and it would be useless to try to keep him.

After a long silence, Li Dongling said to Liu Youguo, "Professor, you have worked hard at Hanxi Jiaotong University for so many years. The Hanxi Joint Laboratory has been inseparable from your hard work since its establishment.

I think both Hanxi Jiaotong University and Hanxi Joint Laboratory will never forget you!"

"If the professor really retires, I think Hanxi Jiaotong University will give you due evaluation and treatment for your achievements!"

If Liu Youguo really retires, Li Dongling will not be able to worry about how the Wuhan-Xi'an Jiaotong University will evaluate his career, but he can make the decision on the Wuhan-Xi'an Joint Laboratory.

“The Zhixing Foundation and the Hanxi Joint Laboratory are willing to present you with the He Ding Lifetime Achievement Award and the Joint Laboratory Lifetime Chief Engineer. We hope you can accept these awards. It is an honor for you to accept them.

The Joint Laboratory will cooperate with newspapers and magazines such as Hanxi Provincial Newspaper, Binh Duong Daily, Reader, Youth Digest, and Mass to publish the professor's contributions to the Joint Laboratory over the years.

In addition, if the professor is willing, the joint laboratory will cooperate with the publishing house to compile an autobiography or memoir for publication.

In the future, the Zhixing Foundation and the Hanxi Joint Laboratory will provide you and your family with free medical examinations, purchase medical insurance, and provide a monthly allowance of no less than 20,000 yuan..."

The He Ding Lifetime Achievement Award and the position of chief engineer of the joint laboratory were newly established for Liu Youguo, but currently do not have much influence.

But the necessary gesture must be made, and it must be publicized with great fanfare, even published as an autobiography!

A horse's bones cost a fortune. The conditions provided to Liu Youguo now are also for other technical experts and professors to see.

It is also to tell those big names that the joint laboratory will not forget their contributions. Life is nothing but fame and fortune. Liu Youguo does not value money so much, otherwise he would not have been teaching and educating people in the ivory tower for so many years, and he also attaches great importance to reputation.

He doesn't care about money, but how could he not care about reputation, especially his reputation after his death!

Publishing a book and writing a biography to let future generations remember him forever, and posthumous fame is much more exciting to Liu Youguo than the tens of thousands of yuan in allowance he receives every month!
Not only Liu Youguo, but also chief engineers of Doxin Semiconductor such as Ni Guangnan and Huang Lingyi will be able to publish books and biographies in the future and promote them through magazines such as Popular and Reader!

These magazines are good at writing short articles, and can promote Japan, Germany, America and the like. Now Feiyan is their major advertising sponsor, so what's wrong with promoting Dongling Hi-Tech?
With the example of Liu Youguo and others, should technical experts who value their reputation after death pay extra attention to the recruitment of joint laboratories or Dongling Hi-Tech in the future?
After hearing what Li Dongling said, Liu Youguo's heartbeat suddenly accelerated. It was absolutely bullshit to say that he didn't care about his reputation after his death.

As a person in the traditional academic field, Liu Youguo certainly could not be indifferent to his reputation after his death.

But he had never thought that one day he would be featured in special reports in various media magazines and readers, and as for publishing an autobiography, he never dared to think about it.

As for the He Ding Lifetime Achievement Award and the like, after several years of publicity and with a million-dollar prize, the He Ding Award has become quite famous in the domestic academic circle, even if it cannot compare to the Changjiang Scholars Award of its predecessor.

If the He Ding Lifetime Achievement Award is launched, it will be equivalent to letting Liu Youguo show his face in the domestic academic circle.

"This... this, this is a little inappropriate..."

Liu Youguo certainly didn't want to miss these, but he was shy about it. This is a common problem among scholars. Some of them are too concerned about their reputation and face.

"Professor Liu pioneered the development of domestically produced chips and is a pioneer in domestically produced chips. Professor Liu's career should be seen by more people!"

Li Dongling spoke righteously, and he would not allow Liu Youguo to belittle himself.

The bull market chip installed in Dongling Hi-Tech's electronic pet machine was developed by Liu Youguo and his team. Don't worry about the performance of that thing, just ask whether it is made in China?

Including the Sirius chip used in the Shenzhou digital cordless phone, which has become an evergreen product of Dongling Hi-Tech, was also developed by Liu Youguo and Ni Guangnan. So it can be said that he pioneered the domestic chip and there is nothing wrong with it.

Liu Youguo rubbed his hands awkwardly, wanting to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say them.

As for Liu Youguo's wife, her face was also full of joy at this time. She was not interested in empty titles such as the Lifetime Achievement Award and Chief Engineer.

But when Liu Youguo retires, the Han-Xi Joint Laboratory will be able to provide the old couple with physical examinations, medical insurance, and a monthly allowance of 20,000 yuan. To be honest, this will allow them to live a very decent life in their later years!
These years are the most difficult years for the domestic education industry. Even the retirement salary of university professors is as low as 1,800 yuan and as high as 2,000 yuan. The key is that it is hard to say whether you can receive it on time.

To be realistic, once you retire, if you want your children to be close to you and fulfill their filial duties, you need a pension so that you can stand up straight.

To be realistic, even if you go to a nursing home, the level of your pension determines the quality of the nursing home. Also, whether you have children who visit you regularly makes your life completely different. If you don't have much pension and no children, then how you live in a nursing home depends entirely on luck and the kind of caregivers you meet. If you can't hold your pants down and it leaks, you may be punished...

With the current domestic salary, no matter how much pension Hanxi Jiaotong University pays Liu Youguo every month, the joint laboratory can give him a subsidy of 20,000 yuan, which is enough for Liu Youguo and his wife to live a good life in the second half of their lives!

This allowance is enough for Liu Youguo's children to fulfill their filial duties. They are even afraid that something bad will happen to Liu Youguo and will definitely support him.

"Professor Liu, do you have any recommendations for the next director of the joint laboratory?"

Li Dongling asked Liu Youguo. He was more familiar with people in the academic field. They had been in the same industry for decades and knew everyone's background.

"The next director of the Hanxi Joint Laboratory, I think we should choose someone who is not from Hanxi Jiaotong University!"

Liu Youguo said tactfully that a man would die for his confidant and a woman would dress up for the one who pleases her. He now truly treats the Han-Xi Joint Laboratory as his own business and the first thing he considers is the joint laboratory.

The Hanxi Joint Laboratory is too close to Hanxi Jiaotong University. The first head was Liu Youguo. If the second head is also from Hanxi Jiaotong University, what will Yenching University, Harbin Institute of Technology and other universities that have joined the Hanxi Joint Laboratory think?

Even in the future, will it become a routine that the head of the Hanxi Joint Laboratory can only be someone from Hanxi Jiaotong University? By then, the entire Hanxi Joint Laboratory may be dominated by one company.

"Professor Liu is right!"

Li Dongling is quick to accept good advice. He said that within the joint laboratory, there must not be one dominant company. Only with a hundred schools of thought contending under controllable competition can Dongling Hi-Tech bring the greatest returns.

"Old Bear!"

"Xiong Tianming from Harbin Institute of Technology!"

After Liu Youguo thought carefully, a name appeared in his mind.

"Lao Xiong is 51 years old this year, majoring in communication engineering. As for people, Lao Xiong does not tolerate any injustice, has a strong character, and is very fair in doing things. He taught at other universities before, but was not well received, and wasted many years.

He entered Harbin Institute of Technology a few years ago. However, the funding of Harbin Institute of Technology is tight, and the communications technology research institute and laboratory he wanted to build have not been built. I think there is a chance to let Lao Xiong become the next director of the joint laboratory.

The joint laboratory also has a chance to recruit Xiong Tianming!"

The joint laboratory has undertaken many R&D projects of Dongling Hi-Tech, including communications engineering projects.

Although Liu Youguo didn't know the specific research and development projects of Dongling Hi-Tech, he could vaguely guess some of it.

After all, Dongling Hi-Tech's technical department has a dedicated technical team, which, under the leadership of Deputy General Manager Luo Zheng, has been aggressively pursuing 2G and 3G technologies.

To recruit Xiong Tianming is nothing more than to help him build a communications technology research institute and laboratory, which is not a problem for the joint laboratory and Dongling Hi-Tech.

Xiong Tianming’s Communication Technology Research Institute was completed, and the ultimate beneficiary is Dongling Hi-Tech, so that all the benefits will be kept within the family!

"Professor Liu has to take action on this matter. As long as Professor Xiong is willing to serve as the head of the joint laboratory, the requirements of the Communications Research Institute and the laboratory can be agreed. The joint laboratory and Dongling Hi-Tech can also support his research and development!"

When Liu Youguo heard Li Dongling's guarantee, he immediately felt relieved. With the promise of the great philanthropist Li, he was much more confident in recruiting Xiong Tianming.

……

"Mr. Li!"

After coming out of Hanxi, Li Dongling went into the joint laboratory headquarters opposite Hanxi Jiaotong University for an inspection, and then turned to Doxin Semiconductor.

When I got over, Wu Xinyi, general manager of Doxin Semiconductor, and Lin Qijian, head of Doxin Hanxi Chip Factory, were already waiting at the door with a group of managers.

Seeing that Li Dongling arrived a little later than expected, Wu Xinyi knew that Li Dongling had already gone to meet Liu Youguo.

"Is Professor Liu really going to retire?"

The cooperation between Doxin Semiconductor and the Hanxi Joint Laboratory has always been quite smooth, and many R&D projects have been completed by the joint laboratory. Naturally, Wu Xinyi felt a little reluctant to part with Old Man Liu.

"When the new leader takes office, he will officially retire. At that time, we will hold a retirement ceremony for him, and it must be a grand ceremony!"

Li Dongling said, and then as he walked into Dongxin Semiconductor, Li Dongling stopped and turned back to look at a large construction site adjacent to Dongxin Semiconductor that was in full swing.

"How long will it take for the chip factory to be completed?!"
