Rebirth: My 80s

Chapter 343 An appointment to test the waters
It was already dark outside the window, and the wooden house was quite spacious, with only a small light bulb on.

Under the dim light, Chen Chunxian had a strange expression. He looked at Li Jiankun as if he were a liar.

Li Jiankun touched the tip of his nose and said, "You must think I'm very unreliable now, right?"

It turns out that you also know... Chen Chunxian said quietly: "You remind me of someone."

"Ok?"

"That Mr. Zhao from the Warring States Period."

Li Jiankun: "..."

This is to scold him for talking on paper.

By the way, Mr. Zhao is quite capable. Who is his opponent?That's the God of War Bai Qi!Being able to hold on for more than 40 days is definitely something that only a few people can do.

"First of all, I will definitely give you that 'magic weapon'. Please allow me a few days, and we have to discuss what experts the service department currently has gathered, and how far they can achieve it under the current technical conditions. Only Only by understanding this can I prescribe the right medicine."

Li Jiankun clapped his fingers and said:
"Secondly, I have a way to get money to ensure the operation of the research and development project."

Chen Chunxian interrupted him and said, "What should we do? Your sister and her friends should have some money, but you have to understand that if they really invest in the research and development of high-tech projects, it will only be a drop in the bucket."

"It's not them." Li Jiankun shook his head and didn't explain much.

This thing is poorly explained, so it would be better to make money by taking pictures.

Chen Chunxian was still full of doubts, "Okay, let's pretend you can get funds for now, but what's your purpose? I can't do this even if I pay real money or silver. I can only spend time and energy, but there's no way I can get it." As long as my salary goes in, my family can still live.”

Li Jiankun said: "You actually mentioned a word just now - investment.

"You have visited foreign countries several times, and you should know that there is a profession abroad called an investor. Many technology projects in Silicon Valley were just born in garages at first. Later, investors took a fancy to them, injected funds, and brought the projects to fruition. and gradually became commercialized.

"This is what I want to do."

Chen Chunxian suddenly realized that he wanted to make big money with small money, which made sense.

He does not reject this model. From a rational perspective, he quite agrees with it.After all, most researchers lack financial strength and the ability to commercialize products.

In this way, it can be regarded as a specialization in the art industry and a strong alliance.

The question is, can the other party do it?

He was still deeply skeptical.

"The road to research and development of chips you mentioned is, with all due respect, a bit fanciful. Believe me, this is by no means as simple as you think."

Li Jiankun has never thought about chips simply, otherwise it would not become a bottleneck for us in the future.

It's just that he specializes in technology. He only has a superficial understanding of the field of chip research and development, and he can't explain it.

There is no rule that says that when investing in a product, investors must know how it is made, right?

With such a level, why didn't he create it himself?
So what he said may give Chen Chunxian a whimsical feeling.

No way.

"I'm just giving my prediction on the future development of technology. Chip technology is an area I want to invest in. There is no doubt that it is difficult. If you can't get it right in one step, it's better to start with integrated circuits. This thing will Scientific research results do not have to wait until the future, they can quickly become economic benefits.

"After accumulating a certain amount of technology and talent reserves, we can then delve into more advanced chip fields."

What Li Jiankun is thinking about right now is that he owns 49% of TCL, which of course is still called TTK Home Appliances. If he can develop good integrated circuits here and have electronic cores, he can immediately produce products there.

Doesn’t this form an upstream and downstream industry?
Regardless of whether we can produce a chip or not, we won't lose money on the left or right, and it will be beneficial to both the top and the bottom.

Chen Chunxian looked him up and down, this guy really understands!
At least he's not talking nonsense and has done his homework.

It's a little bit reliable to know how to proceed step by step.

Of course, it's just that his ideas are a bit unreliable, and it's still unclear whether he is reliable or not.

"To be honest, I can't believe you at the moment. You yourself know how incredible your words are. These days, who in our country can invest in chip research and development on their own? Even in integrated circuit research and development?"

At this point, Li Jiankun had to explain, otherwise there would be a "misunderstanding" and there would be a risk of not being able to secure both the one and the other. "I just said I could get money. I didn't say it was my money. To be honest, I have some overseas Chinese relatives and friends."

Chen Chunxian said thoughtfully: "Okay, now I understand your idea. You want to cooperate with the service department..."

"and many more."

Li Jiankun interrupted: "Let me ask, what is the current nature of the service department?"

"Private and private."

Chen Chunxian explained: "I originally wanted to set up a self-operated company, but there was no such precedent in Zhongguancun, and there was no institution to register a similar company, so I had to resort to setting up a private service department. I will take this matter to my next level. We have submitted a face-to-face report and received approval. Generally speaking, our personnel are allowed to combine freely, operate independently, be responsible for our own profits and losses, and bear our own risks.”

The boss still has a reputation.

Li Jiankun sighed in his heart, this kind of policy has not yet arrived, and it would be impossible for others, such as him, to forcefully open up wasteland.

That's no problem. If the service department is public, it won't be easy to cooperate with.

The age factor is here.

Li Jiankun made a gesture of invitation, indicating that he should continue.

Chen Chunxian continued the topic: "Since you want to cooperate with the service department, and you have a direction for cooperation, should we solve the first step before talking? First, we can gain some trust in each other; second, you As I said just now, if we can’t achieve results and don’t get widespread support, whatever we talk about now will be in vain.”

This is true.

This boss is obviously interested, but he doesn't trust him yet. He is a mule or a horse, and he wants to be pulled out for a ride.

within reason.

It is impossible for a very smart person to be trusted by someone with just a few words.

Li Jiankun nodded and said, "Okay."

Immediately, the two stopped talking about big developments and focused on how to come up with a "magic weapon".

That is what Li Jiankun said, a commodity with high-tech attributes, irreplaceability, and a hungry market.

When talking about this, Chen Chunxian became even more interested. He wanted to see if this young man really had a different head, or if he just opened his mouth.

Anyway, let him think about it, he really has no clue about satisfying these three characteristics at the same time. He can often only satisfy the first two, and has no confidence at all to achieve the latter one.

The other party was right about what he said. Having spent half his life in a laboratory, he indeed lacked sufficient understanding of the market and even people's lives.

So whatever information Li Jiankun wanted to know, Chen Chunxian explained it in detail.

Including the dozens of researchers currently participating in the activities of the service department, what units they belong to, what fields they are good at, what scientific research results they have, etc.

Li Jiankun listened carefully and took out a small notepad to take notes.

This conversation lasted until the dead of night.

On a late autumn night, the temperature in the capital was only about ten degrees, the moon was hazy and the light was dim.

Li Jiankun drove the "Stitch Monster" slowly on the road, letting the cold wind penetrate through his shirt. Although he was shivering from the cold, his mind became clearer.

He didn't think about the "magic weapon". There was no shortage of information. He could definitely figure it out.Even the products of future generations can be screened out by the elimination method.

What he was thinking about was something he hadn't discussed with Chen Chunxian yet:
How to carry out this trial cooperation with the service department?
The original intention of making this product is to create a good development environment and pave the way for the future. How should the benefits be distributed?How can I achieve the best results?
After the product is developed, how to mass produce it?

and many more.

There are so many things to consider.

You need to be cautious and cautious, but you also need to try to meet expectations.

Once this is done, if it can meet expectations, it will change history.

The development of Zhongguancun may be several years ahead of schedule.
