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

The last day of March 2019.

The first 5G network covering an entire administrative region in China has been built and put into use in Shanghai, marking Shanghai as the first city in China to have China Mobile's 5G network.

Compared to my previous life, this matter hasn't changed much.

This applies to both time and place.

Wang Donglai's sudden emergence, coupled with his views on 5G, clearly indicates that he has not yet gained the complete trust of those above him.

However, given Wang Donglai's academic standing, it still had a certain impact.

At least, the authorities have been very cautious in promoting 5G. It seems that the first 5G city was set up in Shanghai, which is also regarded as a pioneering area for 5G network construction, an innovative application demonstration area, and an industrial cluster area.

5G will not be fully rolled out until significant progress is made in Shanghai.

Don't underestimate this small change; when considered on a national scale, it becomes a huge number.

Even with the widespread deployment of 4G technology, operators have invested so much money in upgrading equipment and technology, but haven't recouped much of it yet.

The rush to promote 5G technology is both a waste of funds and a waste of technology.

The promotion of 5G technology will naturally benefit a group of people, but now that it's being put on hold like this, some people and companies naturally hate Wang Donglai and Galaxy Technology.

And on the first day of April.

The accident that occurred in Liangmu area of ​​Sichuan caused huge losses and attracted great attention online.

At the beginning of the month, Huahang Technology Group also successfully conducted a test flight of a self-developed drone.

The Beijing education authorities also issued a "Notice on Implementing the 'Double Ten Thousand Plan' for the Construction of First-Class Undergraduate Programs," deciding to fully launch the "Double Ten Thousand Plan" for the construction of first-class undergraduate programs. From 2019 to 2021, the plan aims to build approximately 10000 national-level first-class undergraduate programs and approximately 10000 provincial-level first-class undergraduate programs.

The "Double Ten Thousand Plan" is aimed at all types of universities and colleges, and aims to build first-class undergraduate programs in different types of ordinary undergraduate universities, encouraging classified and characteristic development; it is aimed at all majors, covering all 92 undergraduate major categories, and will carry out the construction of first-class undergraduate major points in stages on an annual basis.

The document contains a lot of information and is very dense.

But only a few people know the true meaning of this notice.

If it weren't for Wang Donglai's sudden emergence, his consistent actions, and his advice to those above, this change probably wouldn't have happened.

Tangdu Jiaotong University was among the first to benefit from this opportunity, submitting numerous programs that became national-level first-class undergraduate programs without any issues.

Even the universities throughout Tang City benefited.

After all, the growth and expansion of Galaxy Technology has also made many majors in these universities more popular. Under the guidance of market forces, the popularity of these majors has naturally led to such situations.

Meanwhile, the EHT announced that it had obtained the first direct visual evidence of a supermassive black hole, publishing this major result in a special issue with six papers. The image of the black hole reveals the black hole at the center of the supermassive galaxy Messier 87 in the Virgo Cluster.

It's worth mentioning that this black hole is 5500 million light-years from Earth and has a mass 65 billion times that of the Sun.

The Earth is still spinning; the world has not been destroyed.

With a global population of billions and hundreds of countries and regions, there are simply too many things happening every single moment.

Therefore, no matter how shocking something is, by the next day, the hype will have halved, and after another two days, it will have faded even more.

The technology summit held by Galaxy Technology truly caused a sensation across the internet when it first appeared.

However, in the internet age, everyone's attention span becomes infinitely short.

The phrase "three-minute enthusiasm" is extremely apt.

Ordinary netizens don't pay attention to these things.

However, companies that have reached a certain size cannot be ignored.

Especially what Wang Donglai said at the technology summit.

The reason why high-tech enterprises are valued by higher authorities and have high economic value is because they possess advanced technology.

Technology represents the future direction of development!
Without a doubt, Galaxy Technology is currently the strongest representative of scientific research in China.

The techniques they displayed were all incredibly advanced.

It was as if there were no research and development bottlenecks, without any prior warning, like a magic treasure trove that could be taken out as soon as it was mentioned.

In this way, Wang Donglai's words became incredibly valuable, prompting domestic entrepreneurs to give them serious thought.

Chrysanthemums in Shenzhen.

Yu Dazui attended the banquet that evening, and after it ended, he returned directly to headquarters without lingering and reported the matter to Old Master Ren.

As an important partner of Galaxy Technology, Chrysanthemum knows Galaxy Technology very well.

The two companies have collaborated in many areas, and unlike other companies, Chrysanthemum truly has its own solid strength.

Therefore, the cooperation between the two companies was quite pleasant.

Behind the scenes, the poaching of each other's talent never stopped.

As a result, the two sides held a dialogue.

Several agreements were reached during the dialogue.

Firstly, if employees from both companies switch to the other company, the non-compete agreement automatically becomes invalid, and the employee's job-hopping cannot be stopped!

Secondly, the two parties can cooperate without involving core technological secrets.

Finally, they shared a lot of patents with each other, creating a shared patent pool.

Given these conditions, Galaxy Technology only gave Chrysanthemum.

Lei Jun must have been incredibly envious of this offer. However, while Ju Hua could offer something truly impressive, Lei Jun's X-meter was still lacking, so he wisely refrained from mentioning it.

Chrysanthemum Headquarters.

Grandpa Ren frowned, pondering Wang Donglai's actions this time.

He's a seasoned veteran; he sensed something was off when Galaxy Technology announced its tech summit in such a hurry.

Out of caution, he did not participate himself, but instead asked Yu Dazui to participate, and also made a phone call to Wang Donglai.

However, he didn't get any information out of Wang Donglai.

However, after the technological products announced on the first day of the technology summit, Mr. Ren became even more determined in his ideas.

Sure enough, after Yu Dazui relayed what Wang Donglai had said that evening, Old Master Ren finally understood.

Although he understood, Old Master Ren was still caught in a dilemma.

Logically speaking, Wang Donglai's actions were completely wrong and unreasonable. To say he was courting death would be an exaggeration, but to describe it as bringing trouble upon himself is absolutely correct.

Mr. Ren admires Wang Donglai's research capabilities from the bottom of his heart and has a genuine appreciation for his technological achievements.

However, in this matter, Mr. Ren finds it difficult to appreciate.

Following that is too risky.

If he didn't follow, he would just watch helplessly as Galaxy Technology and Wang Donglai missed out, and he would indeed feel it was a pity.

Mr. Ren hasn't felt this way in many years.

Even when Chrysanthemum was banned back then, President Ren had never suffered like this.

I hesitated for two days.

When news came that the Beijing working group had gone to Tangdu City and then returned, coupled with the shifting political winds, President Ren immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Without the slightest hesitation, President Ren immediately convened a meeting of senior executives.

"Today's meeting is very simple, it's an extra topic, but I personally think it's still very important, so I've called everyone here to discuss it."

Although Mr. Ren does not hold a large number of shares, as the founder, he has no problem attending senior management meetings.

After a brief exchange, Mr. Ren got down to business.

"I'm sure you've all heard what Mr. Wang from Galaxy Technology said at the technology summit."

"The Fourth Technological Revolution, including artificial intelligence, materials, biomedicine, energy, and so on, has already yielded results or shown signs of breakthroughs."

"And now, the choices we face will determine our future life or death."

"On the surface, our crisis is not significant, with only the threat from the Bald Eagle Federation."

But is that really the case?

"Let's not forget the existence of Galaxy Technology!"

"I have some data here. In just one year, a total of 6,782 people have switched to Galaxy Technology."

"What does this mean? On average, twenty people successfully change jobs every day."

"This is before they've even considered changing jobs, but haven't actually succeeded in doing so."

"How many people jumped ship from Galaxy Technology to us? Only less than four hundred."

"The difference between 6,700 and 400 is self-evident!"

"If things continue like this, it's questionable whether we can maintain strong R&D capabilities and have a robust technological drive."

“Scientific research is essentially about competing for talent. You all know what kind of prices and benefits Galaxy Technology offers to high-level talents.”

"You have all seen how fast Galaxy Technology is developing and how outstanding its achievements are."

"Therefore, I propose increasing bonuses and giving more to frontline employees. What do you all think?"

After Mr. Ren finished speaking, the conference room fell completely silent.

There are many legends surrounding chrysanthemums.

What working people like most is the generosity of chrysanthemums. As long as you have good skills and persist for several years or even more than ten years, you can save up a lot of money.

Chrysanthemum distributes hundreds of billions of yuan in dividends to its employees every year, averaging hundreds of thousands of yuan per person.

This dividend amount may not be the highest in the country.

It may not be the highest per capita, but it is definitely the highest amount of money received by ordinary employees.

Of course, this excludes Galaxy Technology.

Many large internet companies like to play word games; average values ​​are actually the least reliable.

Executives receive hundreds of millions or tens of millions in bonuses each year. When averaged with ordinary employees, this naturally raises the average to a very high level.

But the actual feeling is completely different.

Ren Zhengfei's desire to increase bonuses and favor frontline employees is essentially cutting into the flesh of these senior executives.

There's only so much money.

If more is given to frontline employees, then less will naturally be given to the leaders.

Silence is not necessarily opposition, but it is definitely not support!
After waiting for a while, and still no one made a statement, Ren Zhengfei narrowed his eyes slightly.

"The company's development has proven that the best way to empower frontline employees is to take initiative."

"We've only increased it a little bit!"

"This is extremely beneficial for the company!"

"You are all senior executives of the company, so I think you all understand this principle!"

"Whether or not this should be done, you must already know the answer in your hearts!"

"Regarding the suggestion I just made, let's vote by raising our hands. The minority shall obey the majority!"

After he finished speaking, Ren Zhengfei raised his hand.

Yu Dazui immediately followed.

Xu Jun hesitated for a moment, then raised his hand as well.

One by one, everyone present raised their hands, and it was a unanimous vote!

"Good, very good. Since everyone agrees, let's quickly come up with a set of rules."

"Let it be reflected directly in this year's dividends!"

Ren Zhengfei was not surprised by this. He nodded slightly and said this in a calm tone.

Hearing Ren Zhengfei say this, Xu Jun nodded and replied, "Okay, I'll take care of it right away!"

"One more thing."

"Since we're going to do it, let's make it look good."

"Let's renegotiate the supply prices with our suppliers and partners, and we can raise them a little to share more profits."

"Shorten the payment period by half a month as well."

"We can conduct a thorough assessment of our supply chain and partners. We are all in a cooperative relationship, not just between companies for mutual benefit, but also with consideration for the ordinary employees below us."

"If the supplier is exploiting even its own ordinary employees, and these employees come to work with anger and resentment, they will inevitably vent their emotions on the products, which can easily lead to product quality problems."

"We can increase cooperation with partners who are doing well in this area, and give those who are not doing so well a chance so that we can work together to develop in a better direction."

Ren Zhengfei didn't say what should be done about partners who don't perform well, but those present naturally understood the unspoken meaning.

It is clear.

This is in response to what Wang Donglai said.

Technology for good, mutual benefit and win-win!

The former, chrysanthemum, is not a platform company that uses technology for evil purposes, but a high-tech internet company with real capabilities, so naturally there is not much of a problem.

In the latter case, there is mutual benefit and win-win between enterprises, and between enterprises and employees. In the past, Chrysanthemum only focused on its own small plot of land.

By offering high growth bonuses, companies can incentivize their employees and create greater value.

The current approach simply expands the scope, allows partner companies to offer concessions, and then enables those partner companies to improve the compensation of their employees, creating a positive cycle.

In practice, this behavior is quite simple; the real difficulty lies in the shift in mindset.

If the mindset cannot be changed, even if the company's revenue is high, ordinary employees will not receive much more salary.

As everyone left the meeting room, a thought silently formed in their minds.

That means the domestic business environment is likely to change from now on. (End of Chapter)
