Rebirth of the Military Industrial Overlord

Guo Zhaode went back to Xiangjiang and implemented the newly agreed "Red Flag Capital" expansion plan. Yu Pengxia went to London to support the negotiations on several major projects that were in full swing. In fact, Tan Zhenhua also wanted to go to London. After all, there was something he was worried about. Too many, but unfortunately, he can't go.

Because it is Christmas, he must face the upcoming exam, and according to the agreement between him and Dr. Rice, the result of this exam will determine whether he can continue to mix at Stanford.

There is no way. Although the second son of Tan is still confident about his level, the exam is not the same as scientific research after all. You must memorize the content you want to master honestly according to the requirements of the textbook, and then untie the professors. My brain came up with difficult questions for the students.

Well, I believe that most readers who already have children will have a deep understanding of this feeling. Even if you graduate with a master's degree or even a doctor's degree, you will inevitably scratch your head when facing the fifth grade math problems. This is not bad. This is just in case the children ask you the Mathematical Olympiad...

To be honest, although Xiao Tan Tan seemed confident when he agreed with Dr. Rice, when he opened the thick and dusty textbook, he still had a tingling scalp-Stanford deserves to be the top university in the country. , The requirements for basic knowledge are quite high. Take the electronics major of Tan Er Gongzi, the first semester must learn "circuit analysis", "digital circuit basics", "semiconductor equipment", "calculus ", "Analog Circuit Fundamentals", "Energy and Conversion", "Introduction to Signal and Communication", "Fortran Language Programming" these eight main courses and three experimental courses.

So, Tan Da-expert, a researcher-level engineer who graduated with a master's degree in the previous life, now has to put aside all his distracting thoughts and plunge into the books to study hard every day.

It’s nothing more than to finish these eight books in a short period of time. After all, Tan Zhenhua has a deep foundation. The most painful thing is that he has to endure the sweetness of the school cafeteria because of time constraints. Food, for an authentic Chinese foodie, this is simply a torture enough to make him collapse.

If it weren't during the study break, he could occasionally go for a walk and chat with Vivian, then this day would really be impossible...

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was the six-month exam season. Tan Zhenhua relied on the memory of his previous life and the hard work of the recent period to pass the exam with all A grades. It is obvious that Dr. Rice can also get him. Such excellent grades are a bit surprised. In her opinion, Tan Zhenhua, who has been absent from school for most of the semester, can barely pass the test.

Surprised to surprise, but Tan Zhenhua’s next words made her angry again. Tan Zhenhua said: "Dr. Rice, I think, the first-year course is too simple for me, so I want to apply. Go straight to the second grade, but since the second semester is now in the second semester, can you let me take a half-year leave and come back to take the exam when that time comes..."

Condoleezza Rice really doesn’t know what to do with this yellow-skinned brat. Obviously, he can finish all his homework in half or less time and pass the assessment with all A grades. Tan Zhenhua must be a very smart little genius. It is obviously too easy for him to follow the established track of the school step by step. And to be honest, this is not in line with her own educational philosophy.

But, you kid too arrogant, right? If I agree to your application, it will inevitably cause a chain reaction-Stanford is the top university in the country, and the most indispensable here are all kinds of talents. You set this precedent. There will be a bunch of little guys who want to apply for the same treatment as you when you come back. Should I approve or not? Can this school maintain normal teaching order?

She just wanted to kill Tan Zhenhua's dangerous idea in the cradle, but before she could speak, Tan Zhenhua's next words made her eyes widened and she had to consider Tan Zhenhua's suggestions carefully.

"That, Dr. Rice." Tan Zhenhua seemed to be cautiously probing: "I also know that my request is a little inappropriate, so I decided to compensate the school. Well, that's good, I decided to make a The money is used to sponsor the school to carry out research on several cutting-edge topics, but the direction of the topic needs to be approved by me. As for the intellectual property rights of the final result, um, my school and my family are half done, do you think this will work?"

Hearing such a proposal, Les also had to carefully consider Tan Zhenhua's proposal, because this matter is related to the foundation of Stanford.

Stanford University is fundamentally different from the University of California, Berkeley, one of the top universities in the United States, which is also in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Berkeley is a public university. The main funding for its schools comes from funding from the federal government and the state government. In other words, they have an iron rice bowl.

Not at Stanford. Stanford is a private university, and the government has no obligation to invest one cent in it. In other words, if Stanford wants to continue to thrive and maintain its current super-class level, the constant financial resources are also his school. One of the cornerstones.

Stanford's income mainly comes from several sources.

The most direct, of course, is the tuition, accommodation and other fees charged to each student. Stanford currently has about 7,000 students on campus. The annual fees must be a huge number. However, the extra fees charged are also Many, in order to meet the learning and living needs of these 7,000 students, the school also needs a large amount of expenditure, so this money can also meet the most basic normal operation of the school.

There are donations from alumni. Among these prestigious universities in the United States, the number of entrepreneurs cultivated by Stanford is second only to Harvard University, ranking second. Thanks to this, every year, alumni who have made a fortune generously donate their money to sponsor the school. And this money is also used by Stanford to hire better teachers, carry out more cutting-edge scientific research, and further consolidate Stanford's leading position in the academic world.

Then there is the cooperation with companies to carry out various studies. At Stanford, this is a big business. After all, the school has a large number of high-quality talents and explorers of the most cutting-edge technology in many industries. It has a natural advantage in this regard. Apart from other things, the list of professors who have won the Nobel Prize can make a long list. Stanford can earn a lot of income through targeted cooperative research and patent authorization to other companies every year. The money is also Stanford can continue to be a source of high research investment.

And now, Tan Zhenhua’s proposal is the typical third. He wants to invest a sum of money to jointly develop a certain technology with Stanford. While acquiring 50% of the future intellectual property rights of this technology, he also I changed my free body for a half year.

This is not impossible to consider. However, you are a poor overseas student from China, even if you want to study, you need a full scholarship from Stanford to maintain your studies. Is it more bragging to say this?

Are you afraid that the wind will flash your tongue?

Condoleezza stared at Tan Zhenhua coldly for a long time before saying: "First, let me talk about how much you plan to spend to cooperate with the school, and I will consider this issue again."
