Chapter 338 Global Finals

"Ever since we met and started talking, I always felt that you have more confidence than me."

Lei Jun smiled and pointed at Xu Qingshan.

"After all, it's your bureau, Mr. Lei."

Xu Qingshan replied with a smile.

“You can give the most sense of security to entrepreneurs at home and abroad.”

Upon hearing this, Lei Jun smiled bitterly, shook his head and sighed.

"Didn't Joyo.com fail? Actually, there are only two of us here. To be honest, the domestic mobile phone market is indeed very complicated. It can be regarded as a red ocean market. Traditional international giants Nokia, Motorola, and Samsung still have their market share. The emerging iPhone is completely epoch-making. The main domestic player is China Cool Union. The quality of low-end copycat phones is uneven. The market is very chaotic. People have no trust in mobile phone brands. It is difficult to build a brand from scratch."

Lei Jun was worried. Although he was smiling, his brows were filled with sorrow.

"If it wasn't difficult, would you still want to start this business?"

Xu Qingshan had already seen through everything.

"If it's simple, aren't you, Mr. Lei, still the CEO of Kingsoft?"

"That's right."

Lei Jun laughed in silence and put down his phone.

"When the prototype is ready, I'll let you take one home to play with."

"Then I'll be waiting. I'm leaving. You guys go ahead and do your work. If you need anything, call me. By the way, regarding the supply chain, I've set up a new Lu Investment in Lu Island. Please help me look for chip patents and technologies."

Xu Qingshan gave a brief explanation.

There is nothing hidden about wanting to make chips, and ZTE is currently making great progress in this area.

Letting professional practitioners like Lei Jun, as well as relevant personnel he will come into contact with later, collect information will definitely be faster and better than asking people from other colleges and universities himself.

"Okay, OK."

Lei Jun made a gesture, and before he said anything else, Xu Qingshan laughed first.

"Brother Jun, come on, say hello again, thank you, thank you very much, are you ok."

"what?"

Lei Jun was confused when he saw Xu Qingshan holding a mobile phone and recording him, but he had a good temper and was easy-going.

Although he didn't know what Xu Qingshan wanted to do, he still smiled and gestured.

He repeated these words according to Xu Qingshan's description.

"All right."

Xu Qingshan happily checked the video he had recorded. This was a ghost video made by Mr. Lei. When Bilibili becomes popular in the future, this will definitely be his original video.

Mr. Lei may not know that his number one black man was born blatantly in front of him.

"It seems that I am still a little behind. I will check what the gameplay is and learn it to see if I can use it in the initial marketing."

Lei Jun scratched his head as he watched Xu Qingshan leave with a satisfied look on his face.

When leaving Xiaomi.

Xu Qingshan looked back at the door of Room 807 in Yingu Building.

In just ten years, until March 2020, Xiaomi was able to grow rapidly from such a small office into a business giant with a market value of over 3 billion and cash reserves of over 5000 billion.

It's incredible.

After expressing his feelings, Xu Qingshan drove to the flagship store of the milk tea brand founded by Wang Chuan to take a look. He did not contact Wang Chuan, but just went to experience it as an ordinary consumer.

This is often the easiest way to spot the problem.

Xu Qingshan parked his car quite far away, put on a mask and walked to the store to buy fruit tea.

There is none of the bloody plots in novels.

The service attitude is very good, the store is very clean, the fruit tea tastes very good, and the packaging is also very beautiful.

If Xu Qingshan were to evaluate, Wang Chuan's entrepreneurial venture was a success.

Whether in terms of quality or service, he has achieved advanced levels, and the prices are not too exaggerated.

At least when Xu Qingshan was buying a few cups of fruit tea, he saw many young people, including middle school students, coming to buy them.

Everything is going in the right direction.

Just as Xu Qingshan was thinking that after the industries he had were growing steadily in value, he could invest in some real industry.

The right way is to develop the country through science and technology and industry.

But before Xu Qingshan could hang out on the street for long, his cell phone rang.

"Every day, I really want to turn off my phone."

Xu Qingshan muttered to himself and walked out with a cup of fruit tea.

First send the fruit tea to Jiang Huanxi and Tong Tong to see if the old lady is willing to drink it. If not, put it in the refrigerator and wait for Lin Chenhua to come back from the northwest of the city before giving it to her.

"Hey, Meiyuan, why are you calling me on the weekend?"

Xu Qingshan put the fruit tea in the small refrigerator at the back of the car, which was just big enough to fit it, while holding his cell phone in one hand.

"Qingshan! Didn't you win the gold medal in the ICPC last time you went to Shanghai?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

"Now the new announcement has come out. We have been notified. It will be April 4 this year. It was originally scheduled for February, but it has been postponed for more than a month. This has something to do with you."

"Didn't you attend the ICML conference last summer? There were scholars from this year's global finals question-setting group and the judging and debugging group. Like the professors in our Information Science Center, this year they have led to some small-scale collaborations in the computer field. There have been some minor changes in the program, so the questions this year have been reorganized. It is said that the difficulty will be greater, and the knowledge tested will be broader and more updated. But it shouldn't be a problem for you."

"Okay, Meiyuan, please sort out the specific information and send it to me. Have you told Yangshu yet? I'll tell Huanxi later that I have to drive and we'll talk when I get to school on Monday!"

Seeing that Mei Hong seemed to want to continue talking, Xu Qingshan quickly interrupted him.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Qingshan sat in the driver's seat and held his forehead helplessly.

The speed at which I crossed was really too fast.

Fortunately, ICPC does not restrict student status, otherwise if the school allowed me to graduate early, the review might be stricter and I would not be allowed to go.

just.

With his current status in the academic world, participating in this kind of competition is actually not very meaningful. Even Jiang Huanxi doesn't really need the championship of this kind of competition to prove his ability.

But everything still requires a beginning and an end.

When the time comes, I'll take some time to participate and treat it as a trip.

I didn't get a few days of leisure.

I stayed back at Yandongyuan on Sunday night and was busy with a lot of things on Monday.

Early Tuesday morning, Mei Hong came to Xu Qingshan's office with documents and blocked the door. "Fortunately you haven't moved yet. If you had moved, I wouldn't know where to find you."

Mei Hong looked at Xu Qingshan with resentment and handed him the document.

"This year's finals will be held in Ice City, hosted by the Ice Engineering University, but it's the Ice Engineering University, not the Industrial University. Remember to prepare some clothes. Ice City may not be warm in April. I've already made an agreement with Yang Shu, so I won't bother you anymore, but you must remember to come to the Information Technology Center more often."

Mei Hong looks like this.

Instead, Xu Qingshan felt a little embarrassed.

“Not really.”

Xu Qingshan wanted to explain something or say something, but suddenly he remembered that his new scientific computing software was almost completed, but Mei Hong knew nothing about it, and he suddenly felt guilty for some reason.

"Is there something important you haven't told me?"

Mei Hong keenly caught the change in Xu Qingshan's expression and asked with a suspicious look on his face.

"That's not the case. Didn't my new office and student workstation get approved? Although my PhD is in the School of Field Science, the disciplines I want to pursue also include machine learning and data science. Can I give the School of Information Science a special quota?"

Xu Qingshan took the initiative to avoid the topic.

After hearing this, Mei Hong's mood brightened up and he immediately started laughing.

"That's great! I'll let you choose any one, undergraduate or PhD student, just pick whichever one you like. I guarantee that they will all be happy with it."

"Can you give me the file?"

Xu Qingshan glanced at Mei Hong, who handed the document to him but held the document bag tightly with no intention of letting go.

"Here, here, here. Win a championship and come back! If you win, I'll give you six months of free time!"

Mei Hong, in a good mood, even joked with Xu Qingshan.

Xu Qingshan opened the bag and complained to Mei Hong who was walking away happily with her hands behind her back.

"Then I really thank you."

Went home in the evening.

When Xu Qingshan was modifying and optimizing QSKS, he told Jiang Huanxi about this matter and handed her the notification document.

Jiang Huanxi took off his sweater and fiddled with the notification document.

"Is it appropriate for me to go and win the prize like this?"

Xu Qingshan didn't even turn his head, his fingers flying on the keyboard.

"What do you mean by 'getting a fake award'? You found your boyfriend based on your own abilities. Do others have this ability? If others say you got a fake award, I'll be the first to disagree."

"Oh, it's so annoying! Be serious!"

Jiang Huanxi complained while taking off her sweater. Then she moved her slender body towards Xu Qingshan, leaning against his arm with her chin resting on his shoulder.

"I'm not dishonest at all."

Xu Qingshan chuckled, stopped the work in his hands, reached out and embraced Jiang Huanxi, and his hand naturally stayed in his favorite position.

"When our region signs up, the members are fixed, and it's impossible to change them."

Jiang Huanxi narrowed his eyes like a docile kitten and naturally straightened his body forward.

"As long as it's Kyoto University that wins, it shouldn't really matter who wins, right?"

"Okay, let's go to Ice City in April. I heard that Ice Engineering is an old military engineering school and it implements military management. I wonder if we can see it this time."

The two of them snuggled together and chatted incessantly. When people in love are together, they seem to be keen on chatting about all kinds of meaningless things, as if waste is the first element of love.

Be it time, money, or your body.

When people are in love, they always tirelessly squander what they have in exchange for sand that they cannot grasp.

I wonder how sad those old scholars in the academic world would be when they see a young man like Xu Qingshan, who has concentrated his abilities and talents, wasting his time like this, and how they would warn their students in the laboratory to focus on academics and stay away from love affairs.

But even though he was about to go to Ice City to participate in the ICPC global finals, Xu Qingshan had no intention of making time to prepare.

He was also busy moving his office and dealing with the salary offered by Kyoto University as a subject leader.

There is no doubt that Xu Qingshan's appointment criteria were based on his achievements in number theory and his compound achievements in computer science. His previous position as assistant researcher was the best springboard.

According to Tian Gang, Xu Qingshan's legendary promotion method is basically the limit of the gray area within the rules.

He himself is a beneficiary of what can be called the "gray rule".

Geniuses and high-level talents are difficult to regulate with common sense and rules and regulations, so many universities have their own standards when evaluating academic abilities. The promotion rules of the domestic scientific research system, whether it is teaching or scientific research positions, are somewhat rigid, but it is not possible to modify the system for one or two special cases, so special cases can only be handled specially.

Xu Qingshan found Tian Gang with his information.

He must handle this matter personally, otherwise many things will be difficult to handle.

"Have you brought your ID card and documents?"

Tian Gang put away his bag, put it behind his back, and asked Xu Qingshan.

"I have it, but why do you want to bring an empty bag?"

"You'll find out later."

Xu Qingshan followed Tian Gang carrying an empty bag with only a few documents in it to complete the entire process. Only then did he realize how correct Tian Gang's advance arrangements were.

"The position of academic leader offered to you now is a special position. The treatment for special positions is indeed a little lower than that of normal positions, but it is still an annual salary of 80 yuan, and this is the basic annual salary. For other various allowances and subsidies, the first month's allowance has just been paid to you in cash. The professor allowance for doctoral supervisors is 1200 yuan a month. The school pays for five social insurances and one housing fund. Commercial insurance is also being processed. The information on recuperation is also in your bag. You can apply every year. You and your family can go. We have several designated locations at Peking University. The closest one is Beidaihe in Qinhuangdao."

Tian Gang was like an old man sending his grandson to school, chattering on and on to Xu Qingshan about a bunch of things.

"This year, the funding from above is not small. Your research funding will come from our School of Mathematics. I have allocated 200 million yuan to you. If it is not enough, please tell me. This is how we do mathematics. You can also ask Lao Mei for some money. They have a lot of money in the School of Information Science."

Tian Gang counted on his fingers.

"After all, you are also involved in computers and interdisciplinary subjects, so the second floor of the building south of the science building is vacant, so I will arrange it for you. Tell me if you need equipment. If you want to use a supercomputer, don't pay for it yourself. Tell me the funding. If you want to recruit people, list the conditions for me and I can choose for you both at home and abroad."

"By the way, you should still be living in that small two-bedroom apartment in Yandong Garden, right?"

Tian Gang suddenly thought of it and asked.

"Yeah, that's right."

"The school provides resettlement allowances and housing subsidies, but the resettlement allowances are given annually, while the housing subsidies are one-time. Do you have a house in Beijing?"

"Yes, I bought a courtyard house on Nanchizi Street when I came to school last year. I'm living there now. As for housing security, why don't I just move to a bigger house in Yanyuan? It just so happens that my sister lives with me, and my grandmother can come over from time to time."

Xu Qingshan seriously thought about feasible solutions.

However, he didn't realize that when he just mentioned the courtyard, Tian Gang fell silent and rolled his eyes at him.

Xu Qingshan is really capable to be able to make this old man happy.

"Okay, I'll talk to the logistics department tomorrow and send you an application form for you to sign. Remember to sort out your field scope and core direction as early as possible. You only have half a semester to prepare. The school has already planned to list you on the official website, and you will be included in the fall enrollment."
