Chapter 173 How to Overtake in This Round of Technological Revolution
"Teaching the bosses? Me?" Chen Yuanguang asked puzzledly.

Director Zhao said: "Yes, it's you, don't be too surprised, you are qualified.

It is not uncommon to give lectures to bigwigs. Many years ago, we started to invite experts and scholars to give lectures to bigwigs. This has become a tradition. "

Chen Yuanguang said: "It's not that I don't think I'm qualified. If I'm not qualified, then there won't be many people in the whole of China who are qualified."

Coming from Chen Yuanguang's mouth, these words, combined with his age and achievements, give people a sense of naturalness.

Director Zhao did not feel offended at all. He found it very fresh. The young people in his unit would not dare to talk to him like that.

"But what I find strange is that it happened so suddenly. I won't be in Yanjing for long. Logically, shouldn't this kind of lecture be notified a long time in advance to give the lecturer more time to prepare?"

Chen Yuanguang paused for a moment and said, "I just think this matter is so abrupt and not serious enough."

Director Zhao was also surprised when he heard the arrangement, because classes were not uncommon and similar group studies were held almost every year.

But before, there was always a topic every time. Either the big guys would choose the topic they were interested in, or the relevant departments would submit a topic list for the big guys to choose.

This is the first time that the instructor has been given complete freedom.

Director Zhao clearly remembers the first time he met Chen Yuanguang. At that time, he was just a technical bureaucrat, and now he has been promoted to deputy director.

When Chen Yuanguang made the room-temperature superconductor, they were exhausted. All lines were mobilized, and the hidden players of external forces were also very active. They not only protected the safety of Chen Yuanguang and his family, but also dug up a lot of big fish.

The fact that Lao Zhao was able to take this crucial step forward had a lot to do with that incident, which led to him having a great liking for Chen Yuanguang.

Therefore he didn't mind leaking some information to Chen Yuanguang:
“You are right. Before, other experts would prepare for lectures for a long time, from half a year to a year.

Experts like those from the Academy of Social Sciences usually prepare for a long time and rehearse several times in advance in order to avoid making mistakes when giving lectures.

But considering that your time is precious, the bosses don’t want to waste your time, and the preparation process is also very energy-consuming, so they let you talk about what you want to say, and you can be more casual. "

"Okay, I will definitely prepare well. What's the specific time?" Chen Yuanguang asked.

Director Zhao said: "Wait for me to notify you of the specific time."

After arriving at the hotel, Chen Yuanguang told Lin Jia about this matter, and Lin Jia smiled and said, "This is a good thing."

Chen Yuanguang rarely comes to Yanjing, and Lin Jia now works at both Xiaomi Auto and Guangjia Aerospace, so she has offices in both places and travels back and forth frequently.

Chen Yuanguang was puzzled and said, "Of course I know this is a good thing."

Lin Jia said: "I think my understanding of good things and your understanding of good things are essentially different."

Chen Yuanguang's sense of smell in this area is obviously not sharp enough, but Lin Jia is much better at it:
“The most important thing is that Director Zhao asked you to be more relaxed.

Therefore, this meeting is more like a one-on-one meeting between the bosses and you rather than a class.

So it doesn’t matter what we talk about, what’s important is seeing you.

You have brought so many surprises to China. Even at such a young age, you have already fully demonstrated your value.

Therefore, they need to show something to you. You don't care about money, status, and power, so the only way they can do is play the emotional card, right?
If I'm not mistaken, you should be able to get the contact information of one or more of them, and you can contact them at any time if you have any questions. "

Chen Yuanguang found it very interesting after listening to it: "Is this a kind of immunity from death?"

Lin Jia said: “There was a joke before: I was sentenced to death. If I achieved a breakthrough in lithography technology before the execution, could it be changed to a suspended death sentence?
In my opinion, you already have a golden ticket to immunity from death, and this is a special communication channel just for you."

Chen Yuanguang: "It seems that I still underestimated my importance."

Lin Jia said: “In a sense, your role is even greater than the five divisions back then.

It is no longer the same as it was fifty years ago. The scale of war and the degree of destruction caused by technological advances are becoming increasingly uncontrollable, and it is almost impossible for the five big gangsters to take action personally.

It was extremely rare for Da Mao to personally participate in the match, and Chun Chun was forced to do so. The others were at best small-scale, low-intensity exhibition matches, not life-and-death battles like Da Mao's.

As a result, the boss was forced to step down. He even thought that attacking Gaza would be useless and he had to fight with Iran. You have to know that Iran is an industrial country, and it is much more difficult to attack an industrial country than a non-industrial country.

I think it’s all your fault that they were forced into this situation.”

There are many opinions abroad about American's personal involvement. They will regard China's technological breakthrough led by Chen Yuanguang as one of the important factors, but it is just one of the factors.

In addition to this important factor, there are many other factors, such as America's own monetary easing, economic problems, election crisis, etc.

However, on Chinese self-media, the downfall of America was directly linked to Chen Yuanguang, and it was believed that it was Chen Yuanguang who single-handedly forced America to downfall.

Lin Jia agrees with this view because she has access to more sources of information and she can clearly realize that the various reasons interpreted by foreign media are all related to Chen Yuanguang.

"Okay." Chen Yuanguang thought of Alpha in the future world at this time. Compared with Alpha, America's ruling system is as fragile as paper.

He changed his mind and thought that maybe the system was too fragile under the current circumstances he had witnessed. It would have been just as strong thirty years ago.

But from the perspective of shelf life, Alpha is still stronger.

There are a lot of parasites in the American system, and they use this system to make profits for themselves. American priority is always just an empty talk, but no one can deceive Alpha.

This is the essential difference. The smaller the loss during the operation of a system, the longer its shelf life. The characteristics of artificial intelligence allow it to reduce this loss to the extreme.

"I see that you have opened a Douyin account, and all your Douyin comments are questions about me. Do you want me to go abroad and do a Q&A session for you?" Chen Yuanguang asked.

After joining Xiaomi, Lin Jia opened a Douyin account soon after in order to build his own personal IP and do some marketing for Xiaomi cars.

After Lin Jia opened a Douyin and Weibo account, he quickly became the executive with the most fans in the entire Xiaomi system, except for Lei Jun.

This rare young beauty, coupled with her relationship with Chen Yuanguang, attracted a lot of attention in a short period of time. Although netizens did not care about Xiaomi Auto in her comment section at all, they all cared about Chen Yuanguang.

Not long ago, she posted a video of her driving experience in Ultra, and the comments section was full of:

"What car does Guang Shen drive? If Guang Shen drives a Xiaomi, I will support one."

Xiaomi's executives wanted her to say that Chen Yuanguang also drove a Xiaomi. The problem was that the Ultra that Lei Jun gave to Chen Yuanguang was given to his father by Chen Yuanguang, and Chen Yuanguang himself drove a Passat arranged by the Chinese side.

I originally wanted to arrange a Hongqi, but I specially arranged a Passat to keep a low profile.

In China's third- and fourth-tier cities, Passat is, in a sense, a standard.

It's just that the Passat arranged for Chen Yuanguang is a little special. It's a size bigger than the normal version you can buy from a 4S store. "Boss Lin, how does Guangshen feel about being named an academician this time?"

"Boss Lin, can you let the God of Light leave the country?"

"Mr. Lin, please be careful not to be too rude to the God of Light. Be gentle to him." This kind of comment is the most unbearable.

Lin Jia shook his head: "No, you'd better not appear on my channel."

Chen Yuanguang was puzzled and asked: "Why? Because you don't want to give Xiaomi traffic?"

Lin Jia explained: “No, I am the vice president of Xiaomi Motors, how could I not want to provide traffic to Xiaomi.

It’s because if you appear on camera, someone with a keen eye can guess your location based on clues.

For example, if we are in a hotel now and we take a video for you, it is very likely that the hotel we are in can be guessed, and even the room number can be located roughly.

When the time comes, you can use poison or some other tricks. There's no need to look for trouble.

Your safety comes first.”

Lin Jia went on to say: “As for the operation of Douyin, I have no problem with you not being on camera.

Even if you don't need to appear on camera, I can still talk about things related to you.

Moreover, there are only a few points to consider when running your own media: either you have poor information, or you sell anxiety. At worst, you sell some of your own characteristics. Talent, appearance, and skills all fall into this category.

What I can focus on is the information gap, and the first-hand information about you is only part of the information gap. "

"Hello everyone, this is my first time giving a lecture to you, I am a little nervous, I hesitated for a long time just choosing the topic."

Chen Yuanguang was wearing the suit that Lin Jia had chosen for him. The entire venue was decorated in a very typical style. There were even fewer people than Chen Yuanguang had expected. Excluding the staff sitting next to him, there were only a handful of people actually attending the class.

"Yuan Guang, don't be nervous. We are all your students here today. We have all heard of your great name for a long time.

I heard about you when you were in college."

Chen Yuanguang was surprised: "Really? I don't think I was very famous at that time."

"At that time, when *** was reporting on your work, he reported to us as an example of young Chinese people's courage to innovate and be proactive.

I specifically asked him about his follow-up arrangements. When he told me that he was going to American University to study for a doctorate, I told them that we need to study how to deepen and solidify domestic graduate education.

Let our country's talents enjoy top graduate education while staying in the country, instead of our top college students having to go abroad to study for a doctorate."

After hearing this, Chen Yuanguang could imagine how much psychological pressure the person reporting on his work was under. He had originally used him as a case study to show how well he did his job, but was stumped by the question he asked in return.

"Ah, this." Chen Yuanguang didn't know how to respond.

"But Yuanguang, you don't have to feel pressured. I'm not blaming you for choosing to study abroad for a doctorate. What I'm saying is that our domestic graduate education is not attractive enough for top students. It's because we haven't done enough, not because young students have made the wrong choice.

Furthermore, the fact that you chose to return to China to start a business after graduation fully demonstrates your patriotic sentiments.”

Chen Yuanguang nodded and said, "Compared to Western food, Chinese food is more to my taste."

When these words were spoken, the big guys all laughed.

Everyone understood Chen Yuanguang's subtext: he didn't want to get involved in politics.

"Study hard and you will become an official" has never been an empty saying in China. Many scholars have entered the official career after making achievements and have been promoted very quickly.

There are such cases among the big guys present here.

Chen Yuanguang obviously avoided the topic of politics, which showed that he was not interested in this path and did not want to be involved in the turbulent vortex.

"That's great, Yuan Guang. Then please come and give us a lecture today."

After a few casual chats at the beginning, Chen Yuanguang felt that he was obviously much more relaxed.

The boss is also a human being, he has nothing to worry about.

"The topic of my lecture today is how China should achieve overtaking in this round of technological revolution."

As soon as these words came out, the bigwigs present showed obvious interest in their eyes.

Chen Yuanguang, a man's reputation is like the shadow of a tree. He is the most suitable person to talk about this topic.

Before today's lecture, the big guys all looked at Chen Yuanguang's resume again. After reading the resume in full, they were amazed at Chen Yuanguang's achievements in scientific research.

“Before coming here, I specifically sought out Academician Chen Chun at the academician conference because I heard that he had given two lectures.

I thought he was more experienced, so I asked him what would be more appropriate.

He spoke twice about blockchain and digital economy respectively.

He told me that it would be more appropriate to introduce the technology and then talk about its applications and development trends.”

Chen Chun is the director of the School of Information Science at Zhejiang University and a leading figure in China's artificial intelligence field.

Unlike Chen Yuanguang who gave him two hours of lectures alone, Chen Chun lectured with others in a comprehensive forum for about forty minutes.

Chen Chun is a guest at a compilation concert, while Chen Yuanguang's is a solo concert, so there is a big difference.

Chen Yuanguang certainly wouldn't say that I have a different time than him, so I can't copy his teaching pattern, but he said:

“I thought about it and realized that if this is the case, there is a lot of content that I can talk about, such as perovskite, vaccine design, topological semimetals, room-temperature superconductors, commercial aerospace, etc. The options are too broad and it is difficult for me to choose a topic that everyone is interested in from so many topics.

So I thought about it for a long time, and felt that instead of talking about specific content, it would be better to broaden your horizons and talk about something broader that can help you open up your thinking.

If China achieves a comprehensive breakthrough in technology over developed countries in the future, I think I will have contributed to it.”

Chen Yuanguang's opening remarks successfully aroused everyone's interest.
