When I am reborn, I just want to be a top student

After leaving the leader's office, Wang Donglai followed Zhao Hua back to Tangdu City.

On the road.

"Before meeting the leader, I was a little worried about you, but I didn't expect you to perform even better than I thought."

Now that you've met with the leader, there are some things I can tell you.

"The trillion-yuan industrial park project has been largely finalized, and the higher authorities attach great importance to this development opportunity."

"Although some people have suggested moving the industrial park to other locations, the idea has been rejected by higher authorities."

"Moreover, the higher authorities have authorized Qin Province to pilot a whitelist for cross-border data flows, and there is also a 500 billion yuan energy innovation refinancing loan as financial support."

"Relevant departments are also coordinating, and a series of documents, such as the 'White Paper on Ultra-Dense Solid-State Batteries,' will be released one after another. It can be said that the government is sparing no effort in supporting Xuanwu Battery."

"Now, the responsibility has fallen on our shoulders."

“We had no choice before, but now that an opportunity has arisen, we will seize it with all our might. The industrial upgrading and economic growth brought about by Xuanwu Battery is the hope of the entire province.”

"If Galaxy Technology has any conditions, or needs the cooperation of Tangdu City or even Qin Province, they can contact me or Manager Wu at any time."

These words were absolutely Zhao Hua's heartfelt thoughts.

Generally speaking, politicians would never speak so directly.

Wang Donglai naturally understood this as well, nodded, and said, "Boss, I will. If there are any problems, I will raise them."

Zhao Hua nodded, hesitated for a moment, and then continued, "The leader just asked you about the development of Galaxy Technology."

"Your answer is very good, but I can give you some confidence here."

"The leader asked you this question because he cares about you, not because he has any ulterior motives towards Galaxy Technology."

"To be honest, we have seen everything you have done since you founded Galaxy Technology, and our analysis of you has been updated countless times."

"You could even say that some people know you better than you know yourself."

"Don't be afraid. Not many people in the country can get this kind of treatment."

"I know you want to manipulate the allocation of resources and open up a new path, and the leaders know that too."

"We can neither support nor oppose this point; you should understand the underlying reasons."

"Employee stock ownership is a special product of the last century, and in theory, it is impossible to reproduce it."

"But the higher-ups will definitely come up with a suitable solution for Galaxy Technology."

"Although Galaxy Technology's shares have been distributed, everyone knows that you are the core of Galaxy Technology. No one will question you or pose any threat to you."

At this point, Zhao Hua paused for a moment before continuing, "The organization won't let its own people suffer losses. Since you gave up your shares in Galaxy Technology, it will naturally compensate you in other ways."

"Although we can't compensate you with that much money based on market value, we can compensate you in other ways."

"Someone should be able to communicate with you about this."

"On this matter, I can only give you a little advice: think carefully about what is most important here."

After Zhao Hua finished speaking his last sentence, which seemed to have a hidden meaning, he said nothing more.

Wang Donglai nodded gratefully.

The fact that Zhao Hua said these things to him proves that Zhao Hua considers him one of his own.

As for the issue of Galaxy Technology's shares, to be honest, Wang Donglai doesn't care at all.

As I said before, with the system at his disposal, he would never be short of money.

I founded Galaxy Technology to make things easier for myself.

For example, when conducting scientific research, there is no shortage of research funding, and there is no need to painstakingly apply to higher authorities, write reports, or undergo audits.

For example, one can communicate with people in a different capacity. A researcher, even an academician, might be respected by the local authorities, but not overly enthusiastic.

But if someone is a super-rich person with a net worth of hundreds of billions and an entrepreneur who also owns companies, the situation is different.

Employee stock ownership is merely a form of virtual stock ownership; employees have the right to receive dividends, not actual shares.

The company's operational control remains firmly in Wang Donglai's hands.

Furthermore, with the presence of Nuwa, everything is even more foolproof.

Furthermore, Wang Donglai had even less to worry about regarding the ownership of those patents.

Many of the technologies are actually beyond the scope of the curriculum.

Even if Wang Donglai has already developed it, others only know how but not why.

For example, Wang Donglai has made a breakthrough in the prototype of a quantum computer, increasing the number of qubits to over one hundred.

If the number is increased further on this basis, the difficulty increases exponentially.

According to Wang Donglai's estimate, without his participation, given the normal pace of technological development, there would be no progress for at least ten years.

Wang Donglai is willing to promote the progress of human civilization and wants to accomplish something.

But that doesn't mean Wang Donglai is a saint.

If anyone thinks that Wang Donglai has lost control of Galaxy Technology and thus harbors inappropriate thoughts towards him, Wang Donglai will show them what compassion and ruthless methods truly mean.

So far, nothing of this kind has happened, so Wang Donglai has not had the opportunity to show this side of himself.

……

After landing.

Zhao Huahe then parted ways with Wang Donglai.

Upon returning to the company headquarters, Wang Donglai immediately summoned Zhou Rui.

How is the investment promotion process for the rocket spacecraft arranged?

In the office, Wang Donglai asked Zhou Rui.

As the first employee to work with Wang Donglai, Zhou Rui felt quite comfortable around him.

"Boss, we immediately put together a design plan after we got back, and we're ready to contact advertisers through our channels..."

Before Zhou Rui could finish speaking, Wang Donglai interrupted him.

"No need to bother."

"While we do advertise, it doesn't mean we'll accept any kind of advertising."

"First, it can only be a domestic brand, and second, it must be a brand with a certain high-tech nature."

"You can't just fly into the sky with an advertisement for health supplements on your back. If you did that, wouldn't you become a laughing stock?"

“We contacted companies like chrysanthemum, Xiaomi, and BYD directly to ask if they had any ideas, and then we connected with them.”

"Finally, there is one more thing, which is to set a bottom line for advertising fees. If it is lower than this price, we would rather switch to our own products than sell them at a low price."

After listening, Zhou Rui immediately nodded in agreement.

"Okay, boss, I'll go and make the contact right away."

"By the way, Mr. Yu from Chrysanthemum has been waiting, saying he wants to talk to us about a cooperation on installing the HarmonyOS system. Would you like to meet him?"

"And Mr. Lei from Xiaomi has also sent a message to discuss cooperation on the HarmonyOS system. What do you think?"

Wang Donglai raised an eyebrow slightly and asked, "Besides Chrysanthemum and Xiaomi, what about OV and Meizu?"

There are a really wide variety of domestic mobile phone brands.

360 made mobile phones, and they were bestsellers for a while. GREE also made mobile phones, using Dong Mingzhu's (Ms. Dong's) image as the boot animation, which garnered immense popularity. Tianyu, Jinli, 8848, Bird, Lenovo, Zhongxin, Konka, Skyworth…

Although most mobile phone brands have disappeared by now, those that remain are barely surviving.

Currently, the mainstream players are Chrysanthemum, Xmi, and OV.

That's why, after hearing Zhou Rui's report, Wang Donglai asked about the other surviving mobile phone brands.

Zhou Rui shook his head and said, "We haven't received any news yet."

Wang Donglai sneered and said, "It seems some people are still delusional and unwilling to accept reality."

"Old Zhou, you are Galaxy Technology's first employee, and you joined the company the earliest."

“From the very beginning, I have treated you as a senior executive, so there are some things I’m telling you in advance.”

"I have already mentioned to the higher-ups that I plan to make HarmonyOS an independent system and have the official team involved, so that we can use the official team's power to promote HarmonyOS."

"If a domestically developed operating system were to gain a firm foothold in the domestic market, it would definitely face targeting from the West."

"Judging from the current performance of our domestic counterparts, it is clear that they do not have such lofty ideas and concepts; all they have are calculations and interests."

"The biggest advantage of handing it over to the authorities is that we can leverage their power to promote it, use their authority to guide and command, and achieve breakthroughs in a short period of time."

"It probably won't be long before a meeting of the HarmonyOS domestic ecosystem alliance is held under official organization."

"At that time, any domestic brand that still wants domestic users will have to make a choice, and even overseas mobile phone brands will be affected."

"Therefore, we can put the HarmonyOS system on hold for now, but we must never mention the development of the HarmonyOS ecosystem."

"In addition, we will select some senior programmers and R&D team members who are familiar with the HarmonyOS system to form a team to provide technical support for the HarmonyOS system. At that time, we may need to connect with the official team or other companies, so we need to carefully screen the people we select."

A look of surprise and disappointment appeared on Zhou Rui's face.

Zhou Rui was well aware of the importance and commercial value of the HarmonyOS system.

After the successful development, Zhou Rui also thought that with this domestically developed operating system, Galaxy Technology's revenue and importance would reach a new level.

Even though promoting the HarmonyOS system was quite difficult, Zhou Rui never thought of giving up.

However, since it was Wang Donglai who proposed the idea, Zhou Rui had no objections.

Because he knew very well that the successful development of the HarmonyOS system was mainly due to Wang Donglai's efforts.

If the team bought from Chrysanthemum could develop the HarmonyOS system, they would have done so long ago; why would it be so cheap for Galaxy Technology?

"Boss, I'll arrange this as soon as I get down there."

Zhou Rui's mind raced with various thoughts, but only for a moment, before he immediately responded.

"Ah."

"The company will be very busy these two years, and as a senior executive, you will have a lot of things to do. I have seen how hard you work."

"Although I am preparing to implement an employee stock ownership plan, I will also take into account the interests of you senior executives and core members, so don't worry."

"The employee stock ownership plan is not a real share, but a virtual share. Employees only have the right to receive dividends, and the shares will be taken back if they leave the company."

“People like you in the core team definitely own real shares.”

"However, as you also understand, things become quite complicated at the level of Galaxy Technology."

“Your shares will certainly not be many, but they will be enough to make you financially independent.”

"You know my consistent approach and philosophy. If you have any thoughts, feel that it's unfair, or want to take a gamble, you can bring them up. I will definitely help you if I can."

Hearing Wang Donglai say this, Zhou Rui couldn't help but feel moved.

He's a veteran in the internet industry and has seen countless examples of people turning their backs on someone after they've served their purpose, discarding those who have helped them, and severing ties over profit sharing.

However, after joining Galaxy Technology, I never had such worries.

Because Wang Donglai always says what he means and does what he says.

They have never received any discounts on the treatment they deserve.

They have been given all the authority they were entitled to.

In addition, Wang Donglai possesses strong scientific research capabilities and personal charisma.

Zhou Rui had long been convinced by Wang Donglai's words, and now that he knew he was financially independent, he naturally wouldn't have any other thoughts.

"Boss, it's my blessing and my luck to have met you and joined Galaxy Technology."

"In just a few years, I've achieved financial freedom, and that's enough."

"Although I don't have the same vision or high moral character as my boss, I'm willing to follow in his footsteps and make something of myself."

Zhou Rui's words were also sincere and heartfelt.

"Alright, since you put it that way, I won't stand on ceremony with you. There's a lot going on at the company, so you'll be busy."

Wang Donglai smiled and patted Zhou Rui on the shoulder, saying...

Although Zhou Rui is much older than Wang Donglai, at this moment, it's as if their roles have been reversed.

There is no sense of incongruity; it looks extremely harmonious and natural.

After giving instructions to Zhou Rui, Wang Donglai successively summoned senior executives such as Chen Lingyue, Ruan Wei, Yang Anchao, Zhang Yizu, and Huang Zheng.

Among these people, Wang Donglai was at least certain of one thing: Huang Zheng was definitely not one of them.

Zhang Yizu is very likely not to be one.

Ruan Wei and Yang Anchao are typical technical personnel; their involvement with Galaxy Technology is primarily driven by a pursuit of technology.

As for Chen Lingyue, Wang Donglai, after observing him, believes he will most likely end up like Zhou Rui.

Indeed, things turned out exactly as Wang Donglai had predicted.

Zhang Zuyi and Huang Zheng were willing to give up other equity interests in exchange for shares in their respective businesses.

Wang Donglai did not object to this.

Wang Donglai originally intended to list Douyin, Toutiao, and PinYiDao on the stock exchange.

Galaxy Technology Group will also retain a large number of shares, but it generally will not participate in the operation. Instead, it will entrust the operation to Zhang Yizu and Huang Zheng.

However, if the two individuals' development paths diverge, then the rights of the major shareholder will naturally be exercised.

Wang Donglai had made this clear to the two of them.

Neither of them had any objections. Having worked at Galaxy Technology for many years, they had long understood Wang Donglai's positioning of their respective businesses.

As long as the fundamental principles established by Wang Donglai remain unchanged, the other aspects will be decided by the two of them.

As for Ruan Wei and Yang Anchao, their cases were extremely simple.

He casually gave the two some pointers on research directions and then dismissed them.

Like Zhou Rui, Chen Lingyue wanted to pursue his personal value after achieving financial freedom.

Galaxy Technology is the place where one can better realize their personal value.

This conversation with the core senior management team was necessary.

Soon, Galaxy Technology will be deeply involved in the development of Tangdu City and even Qin Province. With its huge economic scale and immense wealth opportunities, if Wang Donglai does not make any promises or share any benefits, it will naturally lead to problems with the group's operational efficiency.

As expected, after this ordeal, the core management team was appeased, and ordinary employees learned about the employee stock ownership plan. Suddenly, the entire Galaxy Technology team was filled with enthusiasm for work. (End of Chapter)
