Countercurrent 1982

In any case, in Duan Yun's view, there is no doubt that the world's technology center will still be in the United States for at least the next ten years.

China also has a lot of talents, but with the reform and opening up in recent years, a large part of the talents from some top domestic universities have chosen to develop abroad, including famous schools like Tsinghua and Peking University. The proportion of students studying abroad every year is not small, although many students choose Returning to work in China, most young and outstanding talents prefer the United States, which has a superior environment.

After all, people follow their nature. Everyone likes a higher income and a better life. Scientists also need daily necessities to live. So from this point of view, scientists who can choose to return to China are quite worthy of respect.

Since many high-end domestic talents are also in the United States, Duan Yun cannot give up cooperation with the United States now. Not only must he not give up, he must also increase cooperation.

In the final analysis, attracting talents is a matter of treatment. In a place like the United States, as long as you invest enough money, you can attract enough top talents from all over the world.

Duan Yun and Ward Dolby chatted for a long time. In fact, even top American scholars like Ward and Dolby know very little about China. In fact, American media rarely report positive news about China. Ward Dube has no source of information, so he naturally has no possibility of understanding China.

But in fact, just like the Sino-US relations in the second honeymoon period, Chinese businessmen like Duan Yun are very popular among American political and business circles. This is also the case even in the American educational circles, and In Ward Dolby's view, the Chinese young man in front of him was very outstanding, which also greatly changed his stereotype of the Chinese and the existence of this country.

Duan Yun has been to the United States many times and has come into contact with the top elites in the United States. In Duan Yun's view, these American elites are not only excellent in business, but also have a characteristic that Chinese entrepreneurs generally lack, which is confidence and courage.

Even though he has built his company to the world-class scale it is today, Duan Yun has always maintained a humble heart, and the more he comes in contact with these American elites, the more he discovers some of his own cognitive deficiencies, which are also his reasons. One of the biggest rewards of my trip to the United States.

The exchange between the two lasted for several hours. At lunch time, Duan Yun followed Ward Dolby to the school cafeteria.

If you follow the Chinese way of doing things, you will definitely entertain VIPs from afar, and the meals will basically be high-end. But here, the president of a world-renowned university usually only eats in the same restaurant with his students. When facing a billionaire from China, we only treat him to the simplest meal, which seems a bit incredible to the Chinese people.

However, Duan Yun didn't take it seriously because he was used to the American way of doing things. When Duan Yun and Ward Dubi appeared in the restaurant, several Chinese students recognized Duan at a glance. Yun, Ward Dolby was also a little surprised by this, because he didn't know that Duan Yun was definitely a household name in mainland China. Even these international students who came to the United States from China had already learned from TV many years ago. I recognized Duan Yun from newspapers and newspapers, and most people also knew about some of his entrepreneurial deeds.

In the corner of the restaurant, Duan Yun and Ward Dubi sat face to face, communicating happily with each other. Soon they were like old friends, talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was relaxed and natural.In the afternoon, in the auditorium on the east side of Stanford University, Duan Yun began his first speech at a university during his trip to the United States.

"Hello everyone! I feel very honored to be here to meet you today. This trip to the United States was planned by me a month ago, and I chose Stanford University as the first stop because I have a deep affinity for this place. A special feeling..."

Amid warm applause, Duan Yun stepped onto the podium, holding the microphone with a relaxed and natural expression, and just listened to what he continued to say.

"...When I was dining in the restaurant at noon today, I saw several international students from China. This made me feel very happy, because being able to study in such a university shows that you are very good. I believe in you. By coming to this university, you will definitely be able to realize your life values ​​and the magical American dream, which are all waiting for you in the near future..."

Unlike his speech in China, Duan Yun's speech at American universities will not use the preaching method to encourage students to study hard and serve the motherland, because for young people of their age, what path should they take in life? , they actually already know it in their hearts. It would actually be a very ridiculous thing to educate them in a preaching tone at this time.

"As the saying goes, technology has no international borders. Whether it's China or the United States, we all need elite talents like you. But everything will follow certain market rules. We in business also know this." Duan Yun paused and then said: "Before I stood here to give a speech, I had an in-depth exchange with your principal and discussed some cooperation intentions. One of them is to establish a laboratory in your school to specialize in communication technology. If you are interested, you can join this project……"

Duan Yun spent a lot of money not only to win over the elites in the American business and political circles, but also to continue to expand channels to attract top talents from around the world.

As a technology company, talents are the most important thing, so in Duan Yun's view, hoarding talents is even more important than hoarding dollars, so he can make a move of buying horse bones with thousands of gold, or he can invest a lot of money. Funds absorb and reserve top elites.

In fact, not all technical talents can bring huge returns to the company, but this is the case in technology companies. Even if 100 out of 99 technical people are just mediocre, as long as there is a sudden inspiration, creativity and innovation With new technology, Duan Yun can make back his capital with profits.

"...In addition to the laboratory projects in our school, we also have our own company in Silicon Valley. If you want to visit our branch, we can reimburse all the expenses for you. If you have real talents and are willing to join Our American branch, our group companies and I are also willing to help you realize the true American dream!"
