Chapter 900: professional team

The meeting is still going to be held, but the keynote speaker of the meeting has changed from Tan Zhenhua, the largest investor in the reservation, to the current CEO Vivian.
Not to mention, Vivienne didn’t have stage fright at all when faced with this kind of scene for the first time. Not only did she tell her investment ideas and future plans very well, the data and charts displayed during the period were also quite clear and complete, which fully reflected The ability and level of elite students at Stanford Business School. During the period, Lu Yongjian and Lu Youming also heard quite professional supplements-this is of course, she wants to get the financial data of the companies she invested, is it not easy?
Regarding the
hyperbolic
investment in the company invested by Tan Zhenhua, Miss CEO explained:
Because I am familiar with these companies, besides, after evaluation by our professional team, they all think they are very good. Why don’t we invest in the development prospects of the company? We can’t let us invest in some unfamiliar companies, right? Our
hyperbolic
is now too small in scale, so even though it’s a venture capital, we should also emphasize risk control. Everyone agrees ?"
Hello, Mrs. Vivienne CEO, your so-called "professional team", who else is there besides your father, your third uncle and your girlfriend? ?
The full room of applause expressed the unanimous opinion of the company's board of directors and the trust and support for the current CEO, but Kaidi, what does it mean for you to whistle so vigorously? Did you know that you behave like a gangster right now, so it's bad for the baby in your stomach, do you know? Pay attention to prenatal education, prenatal education!
After Tan Zhenhua expressed serious concern about the future of the little guy who inherited the "excellent" genes of the club boss and the Texas cowgirl, the first "hyperbolic" board of directors and all staff meeting closed perfectly.
This is a united meeting, a triumphant meeting, an inspiring meeting!
The meeting clarified that all employees of the company must firmly unite around the leadership team with CEO Vivian as the core, take "appropriate investment, risk control" as the guiding ideology, "in-depth investigation and full discussion" as the action principle, and insist on science Investment concept, insist on using detailed data analysis to guide practical work, and eliminate random decision-making behaviors.
The meeting also made it clear that all directors and employees of the company must study, understand and thoroughly understand the spirit of this meeting after the meeting, and integrate the spirit of Vivienne CEO’s speech into their actual work and implement them further ; We must work hard, make persistent efforts, promote the full development of investment work, and strive to create a new situation in the "hyperbolic" venture capital business...
Tan Zhenhua found depressed that he had completely lost the right to speak in the "hyperbolic" investment company in the future, and this situation had nothing to do with how much money he invested in this company and what proportion of the equity he occupied.
Yes, just let the girl toss about it, let's not care, anyway, follow your own vote, you won't really lose her, there are many things to worry about.
For example, the official opening of the "Matrix" laboratory.
After intense preparations and frantic digging, Tan Zhenhua's most anticipated project is finally about to begin formal operations.
Although there are not many people in the initial "Matrix", Tan Zhenhua dared to slap his chest to ensure that all the fighters he joined are elite fighters, and the J-20 fighters!
The director of the laboratory is Professor Yang Zhenyin, the winner of the "Nobel Prize in Physics" and an academician of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States. The deputy director is Stanford famous professor Yao Qizhi, and the administrative director is the former Intel company department manager Yu Youcheng.
Of course, it is impossible for the two professors Yang and Yao to be in charge of this laboratory full-time for the time being. They all have the contract and teaching tasks of the original university, so they can only go to the laboratory to guide the work from time to time. This gave Yu Youcheng greater rights and room to play, and also made him more sense of accomplishment-this is probably one of the important reasons why he agreed to quit his job at Intel to join the Matrix.
Another reason is that he will concurrently serve as the vice president of MIPS, truly entering the ranks of senior leaders.
The laboratory currently has three local research institutes, one overseas research institute and one independent research center. The independent research center is under the direct leadership of Professor Yang Zhenyin and will conduct research on basic theoretical physics. There is only one framework at present; The overseas research institute is naturally the Xiangjiang laboratory under the charge of Fujio Masuoka that was merged this time. This time, it got a new name: "Matrix" Joint Laboratory Xiangjiang Storage Research Institute.
Among the three local research institutes, the position of the director of the Digital Optoelectronics Research Institute is temporarily vacant, because Tan Zhenhua wants to leave it to a great who has been in his heart for a long time, but has not yet been able to dig his hands. Steven Cézanne was here. Not only did he come by himself this time, he also brought his main assistants all in one mind. Although there were only a few dozen people, they belonged to the digital imaging department of Kodak. All the elites, this is really because this small team has had enough of the pain of sitting on a cold bench at Kodak and the conditions promised by Tan Zhenhua are really attractive. After all, no one will think that they have earned a lot of money?
The position of the dean of the Central Processing Unit Research Institute was awarded to Dr. John Reloy Hennessy, which was actually based on the original MIPS R&D team and integrated the team members brought by Yu Youcheng from Intel. It has reached more than 40 people and will undertake the follow-up upgrade research and development work of the MIPSCPU architecture, and MIPS will be reorganized into a relatively simple structure pure business operation company-this is the decision of Tan Zhenhua and Dr. Hennessy after careful discussion, and this research institute is therefore Inside the "Matrix" laboratory is called the "MIPS" Institute.
Because everyone knows that the newly born MIPS faces too strong competitors. It is impossible to cope with the suppression of competitors by relying solely on self-produced and self-sold CPUs. Moreover, in this market, the CPU of the CISC architecture is also leading in specific applications. There are too many RISCs. For this reason, Tan Zhenhua finally put out his long-awaited plan. He proposed that in order to break the situation, only an unconventional competitive method-open authorization is adopted.
In other words, MIPS will become an open-architecture CPU. Any company can obtain authorization from the architecture and produce its own CPU after paying a small fee. If the company's level is high enough, it can also produce its own CPU. Modify the design of the CPU. These license fees are paid according to the actual number of CPUs produced. The license price issued by MIPS for each CPU is based on the license level, starting from 1% of the actual price of the chip, which is simply Conscience of the industry.
We must know that the future "patent rogue" Qualcomm's Qualcomm tax for its communication patent package is 2.75%~4%, or it is charged according to the price of the mobile phone, and the ARM license fee is also 1.5%-2% and needs to be paid in advance A high architecture/instruction set authorization fee.
This measure can greatly reduce the barriers to entry of the MIPS architecture, allowing many small and medium-sized companies to design or increase or decrease CPU functions to meet their own requirements according to their own requirements, and carry out small-scale experiments in a laboratory environment at a very small cost. Tape out to test, in other words, Tan Zhenhua made this decision to encourage a large number of chip developers to rely on their own camp.
Because he knows that the real opponent is eyeing.
Intel, which is still hovering between DRAM and CPU, is currently developing the 80386 CPU, which is an epoch-making CPU, and this central processing unit, which will be released in 1985, is what Tan Zhenhua’s past history truly established Intel’s position in the semiconductor industry. It is also because of the success of this CPU that Intel finally made up its mind to give up DRAM and devote itself to the CPU product line. After obtaining the support of Microsoft and IBM, it established the well-known "Wintel" alliance. Unify the desktop market.
As a past person, Tan Zhenhua knows whether an IT product can be successful, in addition to the product's performance and price, the most important thing is a good ecological environment.
To put it plainly, it is how many applications can be run on it.
Undoubtedly, the more applications that can be run, the more people will be willing to use it, which will also make more people willing to invest resources on it for more in-depth secondary development.
Therefore, Tan Zhenhua did not hesitate to establish the third research institute.
