Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Yulin Institute of Technology does not require scientific researchers to participate in administrative meetings, which Nagoya University cannot do. After all, this is a public school, and many things must be addressed to the entire society. If scientific researchers want to get funding, they must prepare materials. On some specific occasions, we can introduce the feasibility and necessity of the project to officials who do not understand technology at all.

In the eyes of many scholars, this is simply playing the piano to an ox. But the reality is this, and they have to bow their heads and actively cooperate.

Isamu Akasaki: "If I go to Yulin Institute of Technology, what kind of position can I get, and what are the standards in terms of benefits. After all, it is impossible for me to break the existing salary balance just because of me, and I guess you won't do it either."

It seems that the other party still knows the depth, so the problem will be much easier to handle.

Bao Zixuan: "There are many options for your reference. The first is to engage in compound semiconductor research. A dust-free laboratory will be built specifically for you, which is absolutely the highest standard in the world. The laboratory only belongs to you, and others have no right to use it. Any resources.”

"At the same time, it is entirely up to you to decide which students you want to recruit and the teaching assistants to work with."

"If you want more resources, you can serve as the dean of the Electronics Department of Yulin Institute of Technology; the resources of the entire electronics department can cooperate with your research. If you don't like management work, you can just name it, and there will be a full-time deputy director to cooperate with you. Work."

"The director of the Electronics Department of Yulin Institute of Technology has a basic annual salary of US$500,000, and of course there will be other income such as scientific research bonuses. At the same time, he can also work part-time as a consultant for Heiyun Chip Company. He does not work many hours per year, and the consulting fee is US$200,000 per year. "

"In addition, if you produce research results, you can also enjoy an annual profit share of about 3%. Many professors at Yulin Institute of Technology earn more than one million U.S. dollars, and some can even reach tens of millions. It is all because of their scientific research results, and this It’s a lifelong benefit.”

"At the same time, the housing issues in Xiangjiang, including the medical and educational issues of your family, are all taken care of by the school. As long as you can do your scientific research with peace of mind, you can completely let go of the rest."

You must know that this was the 1980s, although the salary of Japanese university professors was already not low. But compared with Yulin Institute of Technology, it is still far behind. No wonder Heiyun Group is developing so rapidly. With the benefits and treatment, as well as the work efficiency of scientific research workers, other companies can't keep up even if they are flattering.

Akasaki Isamu: "This is an offer that is hard to refuse, but I still want to know what kind of research and development President Bao wants me to engage in."

Although the treatment is good, I also want to know if the other party fully understands me. Otherwise, if there is no scientific research results in the past, this trust will become very fragile.

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "Professor Akasaki Isamu is really attentive, so I have nothing to hide."

"I want you to engage in research and development of blue light-emitting diodes, because that is the most ideal light source for future lighting."

After hearing what Bao Zixuan said, Akasaki Yong immediately understood what it meant. At the same time, he also lamented that the intelligence capabilities of the Heiyun Group were really terrifying. I had just delved into this aspect, and the other party came to my door. It seemed that he was well prepared.

Isamu Akasaki: "What does Principal Bao think of blue LEDs?"

This is a test of himself to see how much he knows. After all, LED is my specialty, and Isamu Akasaki is definitely the top expert in this field.

Bao Zixuan smiled and said, "I understand what Professor Professor means. Please correct me if I am wrong."

"I personally believe that if blue LED can be developed, its achievement and value will be no less than the invention of the light bulb. It is not even an exaggeration to describe it as the second lighting revolution after Edison."

"At present, red and green light-emitting diodes have been successfully developed, and only blue light-emitting diodes are still in theory. All colors of visible light need to be synthesized from red, green, and blue light; the successful development of blue light-emitting diodes means that It’s self-evident.”

"Compared with LCD, LED has more vivid colors, wider dynamic range, higher brightness and longer life. If this should be applied to the screen, it will bring revolutionary changes to screen technology. "

After hearing this, Professor Akasaki Isamu no longer dared to underestimate Bao Zixuan’s understanding and mastery of LED technology. The other person spoke very professionally, and many questions were even more thorough than he, a professional, was.

But Nagoya University is his alma mater, so asking him to come back this time would not be a good idea and leaving hastily; the most important thing is that he feels sorry for Professor Reina Esaki's trust in him. After all, this Nobel Prize winner in physics gave him a lot of support.

While working and serving as a professor at Nagoya University, he was influenced by Reina Esaki, who was engaged in semiconductor research, and he devoted his main energy to semiconductor research. Nagoya University is known for its insistence on academic freedom. To support his research on compound semiconductors, Nagoya University built a dust-free laboratory specifically for him. Since then, Akasaki Isamu has turned the research laboratory into a "city that never sleeps."

It was precisely this perseverance and determination that finally led to the successful development of blue light-emitting diodes. The achievements of scientific researchers are accidental and inevitable.

Akasaki Isamu: "It stands to reason that the benefits, treatment and scientific research environment provided by President Bao are impeccable. But after all, I graduated from the famous university and then taught at the famous university. I can achieve today's achievements because of the training of the famous Furuya University. There is a direct relationship.”

"It's very rude to leave so hastily, so I hope you can give me some time to think about it."

I don't dare to let him go back and think about it. At most, Nagoya University will provide him with a special laboratory next year. At that time, it was more difficult to recruit people than to reach the sky; if you don't win them directly at this time, it will not be easy to find opportunities in the future.

Bao Zixuan: "I know what concerns the professor has, and the Nagoya University Group will come forward to deal with it. Including the initial investment in the project you are currently engaged in, Nagoya University will be compensated according to the highest standards. I am a person who attaches great importance to intellectual property and patent issues. It would make any institution or individual find a little problem in this regard.”

Seeing that the old man was a little moved, Bao Zixuan continued: "You and your favorite students at Nagoya University can be brought there with you. Yulin Institute of Technology will provide a full scholarship and pay living allowance according to the salary of a teaching assistant."

In fact, what Bao Zixuan wants most is Hiroshi Amano, who is only 23 years old and has just completed his undergraduate studies. He was recruited as a graduate student by Professor Isamu Akasaki and is also one of the inventors of the blue diode.

Akasaki Isamu did not expect that Bao Zixuan would give students such generous treatment, but he said that sincerity was impeccable. However, I am still a little unwilling to go to work in Xiangjiang. Maybe it's a Japanese person's heart at work, or maybe it's a scholar who doesn't want to be blinded by money. In short, although I am very excited, it is difficult to take that step forward.

Akasaki Isamu: "Thank you, Principal Bao, for your appreciation. I still have to communicate with my family and students."

Hearing that there was no school, Bao Shaofu knew he would add fuel to the fire. So he said directly: "The professor feels whether he can win the Nobel Prize in Physics."

There is no professor or scholar who does not want to be recognized by the Nobel Prize, but this is really difficult. Could it be that Bao Zixuan wanted to hurt himself, but it didn't look like it!

Akasaki Isamu: "Why Principal Bao asked this question is not obvious. I think there is no one, including you, who does not want to win the Nobel Prize."

In fact, this is normal. After all, this is not just a monetary gain. The important thing is that it can leave a name in history, and it is also an object of worship for later generations of scholars.

Bao Zixuan: "How about the two of us make a bet with the Nobel Prize in Physics."

Hearing this, Akasaki Isamu suddenly became interested. You will definitely not suffer a loss if you make a bet with a rich man, at least they will look down upon his meager salary. Then he said: "I don't know how Principal Bao wants to bet. Let's talk about the money first, but I don't have much money."

This is a joke. For the young man in front of me, money may be the most indispensable thing.

Bao Zixuan: "Professor, please don't worry. No matter whether we win or lose, we don't have to pay for it. But you just mentioned money, so I will give you 100 million US dollars."

"The conditions are very simple, as long as you join Yulin Institute of Technology. The school will fully cooperate with you to win the Nobel Prize in Physics. If you do not win the Nobel Prize in Physics during your lifetime, the school will lose 100 million US dollars to you, and the money can be given directly to your descendants. Or you can specify the purpose and the school will help you fulfill your wish."

"Of course if you win the Nobel Prize in Physics, then the school does not need to pay the bonus of 100 million US dollars. You will not suffer any loss, it depends on how you choose."

It can be said that he is absolutely sincere, if he does not win the Nobel Prize in Physics. He can also leave huge wealth to his family. He really has no doubt about Bao's ability to pay.
