Reborn Technology Upstart

Chapter 675: The Leaf Book Foundation begins operation

, the reborn tech upstart

No one had heard of Ye Ziqi's name before, and the major universities that saw the announcement came with information about Ye Ziqi one after another. The information is very simple and can be written on a single page.

The most eye-catching thing is that she is just a college student, and she has just entered college. Everyone thinks it is a bit ridiculous. Judging from the resume, apart from excellent academic performance, there is nothing outstanding.

These are not the most important. The most important information is actually hidden in the name. When you think of this foundation as the Yeaf Book Foundation, everyone instantly understands a lot of things.

In this era, there is only the richest man who can spend so much money to support higher education, and Ye Ziqi, judging from his name, should be Ye Zishu's younger sister, most likely his own sister.

In fact, not only the leadership of universities is very interested in this foundation, it can even be said that they are very excited. The most excited people are those who are engaged in basic scientific research in China.

Those who are the hardest to learn in China should belong to basic science practitioners. They can apply for very little funding, and their salaries are incomparable with those engaged in applied scientific research. They belong to the category of hard work.

The reason is very simple, that is, the economic value of the research they are engaged in is not high. For universities that are becoming more and more utilitarian, if these basic science research majors are not necessary, they will probably be laid off.

But they have no way to go to other units. Among the many scientific research institutes, colleges and universities are the most tolerant places, so they have almost no choice.

Those who are still obsessed with doing basic scientific research basically really like this research field, and those who don’t like it may have already switched to research in the field of applied science.

People who can do basic scientific research have extremely high IQs. It is not difficult for them to change to applied scientific research fields, so only those who really like them are willing to continue to sit on the bench in these fields.

Ye Zishu also knew the situation in the field of basic science in China, so he deliberately allocated a sum of money to support the development of the field of basic scientific research.

Now that the domestic economy is developing very fast, applied science will still occupy the mainstream of economic development, but he still believes that the development of basic scientific research should be supported earlier.

During this period of time, Ye Ziqi has done a lot of things besides being busy with the establishment of the foundation. The first is to cooperate with Honghu Software Company, a subsidiary of Phoenix Technology.

A management system has been specially created for the foundation. As long as the funds from the foundation are used, the usage needs to be recorded in this system, and the scientific research achievements also need to be recorded in this system.

The first thing to do is to supervise the use of funds and prevent funds from being misappropriated for other purposes. In this era, misappropriation is commonplace, especially in the absence of strong supervision, which is a high probability of occurrence.

The second is to evaluate the scientific research results. It is good to ensure that the funds are earmarked for special use. The most important thing is to have results, so as to avoid the funds not being invested in the scientific research field, but being consumed in various entertainment expenses. It is also necessary to understand the scientific research results of various universities.

Scientific research achievements and scientific research project planning are closely related, and are supervised by artificial intelligence throughout the process, not based on the number of achievements, which is superficial.

Artificial intelligence will evaluate the difficulty of scientific research in the planning of scientific research projects, and give different levels of annotations. For different levels of scientific research projects, the foundation has different degrees of tolerance.

If it is a relatively simple scientific research project that fails to achieve results after a long time, then it means that the researchers are either incompetent, or have not really invested in the research of the project, and are just playing the Foundation like a monkey.

There are also some scientific research projects that are extremely difficult, and it is not even clear when they will have results. The tolerance for such projects is very low, but they are not completely ignored.

Project participants need to record their work, and artificial intelligence can judge their current work status based on their work records.

No matter how difficult the project is, it will produce a lot of process results. If there is no result in a few years, it can be judged that there is a problem with the implementation of the project.

In the first year, the foundation will only evaluate the rankings based on the current strength of the major universities and provide equal financial support. From the second year onwards, it will not simply be divided equally.

All kinds of situations will be considered to come up with a ranking. The distribution of funds is no longer completely even. The higher the ranking, the more funds will be obtained. However, this distribution is not too obvious in the early stage, and even if there is a gap, it will not be very big.

This is to give more opportunities to lower-ranked universities, because many basic scientific research projects do not produce results within a year or two, so there should be no big differences in funding allocation, otherwise everyone will pursue short, flat and fast projects, and there will be no meaning.

As Ye Zishu said, thousands of ordinary scientific research projects are not worth one major breakthrough project, so it is very necessary to be more patient.

However, in order to promote a sense of urgency among universities and scientific research personnel, they will still formulate a fund allocation tilt every year, and the tilt accumulated over time will be very high.

Therefore, universities and scientific researchers who do not work hard will find that they will allocate less and less funds, while universities and scientific researchers who work hard will allocate more and more funds.

In the field of scientific research, although the amount of funds is not an absolute factor in establishing the advantages of achievements, it is definitely an important factor. Without funds, everything is out of the question. If you have funds, you will have the confidence to recruit people.

Ye Zishu doesn't mind big universities poaching people from abroad, because basic research does not involve many interests, and the research results actually belong to all mankind.

Why invest in basic scientific research instead of waiting for others to invest, because the process of participating in basic scientific research is more important.

In the process of basic scientific research, a large number of talents can be cultivated, and these talents are what he values. Regardless of whether these talents engage in basic scientific research in the future, they will make contributions to the country.

In fact, these basic research results are not particularly valued by Ye Zishu. There is so much knowledge in the virtual library that there is no need to work so hard.

Didn't he just use this to cultivate more talents, as long as there are more talents engaged in this field, it will have a huge effect on improving the level of civilization, which he cannot do.

Even if there are more basic theories in his hands, it is of little significance to improve the level of civilization. Only when the scientific literacy of the whole society is improved, the level of civilization will be meaningful.

The second thing Ye Ziqi did was to form a team to collect the scientific research results of major universities, but the initial collection was through open channels, which may not be accurate.

So after the announcement was sent out, they began to send teams to major universities in China to find out. However, in order to keep the project confidential, team members were not allowed to have access to relevant information.

Relevant information will be uploaded to the foundation system by the university itself, and the gold content of the information will be judged by artificial intelligence. If there is any information that is inconvenient to upload, the school can explain it, or extract insensitive information.

In fact, artificial intelligence also deduces these missing data and information through a few words. As for the extent of the derivation, it depends on the difficulty of the project itself and the completeness of the information.

If the project itself is not difficult, maybe artificial intelligence can do it with the accumulated knowledge. Don't underestimate artificial intelligence. As the knowledge reserves become richer, its capabilities will become stronger and stronger.

Phoenix Technology has never stopped collecting scientific research results from all over the world, and then let artificial intelligence learn. Now the ability of artificial intelligence to participate in scientific research is getting stronger and stronger.

Now his corporate scientific research department has gradually begun to introduce artificial intelligence-assisted research, but this started at the end of last year, and the effect is still unclear.

The previous artificial intelligence was much weaker in this aspect, and the upgraded artificial intelligence can fully exert this ability, but many aspects are still being perfected.

But in any case, there is no doubt that using artificial intelligence to assist research is definitely much more efficient than researchers doing their own research.

Leaf Chess's fanfare can save a lot of things. Not long after the announcement was made, the major universities welcomed some of the information.

There are even some colleges and universities that visit specifically to get closer, but it is not very effective. Everything must have rules and regulations, and it cannot be broken casually. This is the first principle that Ye Zishu taught her to do things.

As long as you follow the rules, you will be considered pedantic at most, but there will never be bad results. Once you break the rules you set, the impact will be very great.

Since everyone welcomed it so much, Ye Ziqi then announced the follow-up arrangements on the foundation website, the most important thing is the academic ability assessment, which involves the allocation of funds.

The major universities have no objection to this arrangement. In fact, there are not many secrets in the field of basic scientific research. Generally, it is a task assigned by the superior, with special financial support, and no funds from the foundation.

In addition, Leaf Chess also requires major universities to take the lead in formulating basic scientific research projects. The purpose of this is to avoid duplication of projects in major universities. If there are relevant talents, cooperative scientific research can be carried out.

In this way, not only is there more people and more power, but it can also get more financial support. In addition to this purpose, it is also to prevent major colleges and universities from not knowing what to do with the money and wasting opportunities in vain.

Of course, the major colleges and universities had no objection to these arrangements, and then Ye Ziqi began to send team members to major colleges and universities, and the process was actually very smooth.

These dispatched personnel do not have much power, they are just negotiating and do not have any decision-making power, so the contact between the two parties is naturally very harmonious, and there will be no moths.

Because the core of the entire operation is on artificial intelligence, not to mention them, even Leaf Chess can't make decisions, because Leaf Chess is not capable enough, making a decision may not necessarily be correct, it is better to let artificial intelligence take on this role first.

In addition to the foundation that Ye Ziqi is in charge of, the Tide Investment Company that Ye Zihua is in charge of is also taking action, but compared to Ye Ziqi's fanfare, Ye Zihua's side is much more low-key.

Ye Zishu asked Ye Zihua to prepare to invest in domestic industries. After returning, they began to form a relevant team to be responsible for domestic investment business.

It is still in the investigation stage, and we are going to conduct investigations on the domestic economy and industries, so as to have a grasp of the overall situation in the country, so that we can formulate investment strategies, so the lower the key at this stage, the better.

Ye Zishu was not idle here either. After finishing the work at hand, he planned to go to Huanyu Group to see how they were doing.
