I Am the President of the University

Latest website: Gaoqi Airport T3 Terminal.

After checking in their suitcases, Chen Hao and Qian Jiahui stood outside the security check.

"Have your studies been going well recently?" Chen Hao didn't know what to say. After thinking for a long time, Chen Hao had to ask.

"Fortunately, everything went smoothly." Qian Jiahui raised his head and looked at Chen Hao with some reluctance.

"Fool, I'm only going out for three or four days. It's not like I won't come back." Chen Hao put his hand on Qian Jiahui's head and rubbed it.

"Have you brought a change of clothes, wallet, ID, etc.?" Qian Jiahui, who was killed by Chen Hao's head pat, looked like a cat being petted, her eyes narrowed in comfort.

Chen Hao said: "Take it."

Qian Jiahui: "Will someone pick me up after I get off the bus?"

"Yes, don't worry!"

Seeing Qian Jiahui's current appearance, like a wife telling her husband to travel far away, Chen Hao couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.

"Study in Ludao obediently. I'll bring you some delicious food when I come back." It was getting late. Chen Hao looked at his watch and was about to turn around and leave.

The sleeves were pulled.

"Jiahui, and..." Just as he turned around and wanted to say a few words, he was surprised by a sentence that sounded in his ears.

"I don't plan to go to Harvard to study for a Ph.D., I applied with my supervisor to study for a master's degree and a Ph.D. together." Qian Jiahui's cheeks were red, her eyes looked at Chen Hao and then immediately looked away, as if there was a deer jumping in her eyes.

"Jiahui, did I hear you right?!" Chen Hao looked directly at the other party, feeling as if his mind was exploding at this moment, buzzing loudly.

When he first met Qian Jiahui, he was determined to go to Harvard University to study for a Ph.D., but he remembered this clearly.

"Nonsense! Do you want me to say it a second time?!"

"Okay, hurry up and go through the security check, or you'll miss the plane!"

Qian Jiahui pushed Chen Hao directly towards the security checkpoint a few times.

"Hey, there's something wrong with this script!" Chen Hao was pushed directly to the door of the fast-track security check. Because he bought a first-class ticket, he naturally did not need to line up with other economy-class passengers for security check.

"Hello sir, please give me your boarding pass and ID card." The young lady wearing the airline uniform said in a sweet voice.

The process for the express security lane is actually similar to the normal process, except that you don’t have to queue.

Chen Hao handed over the boarding pass and ID card, looked at each other's faces, and then stood on the stage and let the staff use a metal detector to detect his body.

"Have a safe journey, remember to think of me!" Qian Jiahui stood two meters away from Chen Hao and waved. \b

"I know, so do you." Chen Hao said weakly.

The development of this script is wrong. If it had just been developed according to the film and television works, shouldn't it be that the two of them looked at each other lovingly, and then got closer and closer, and their lips touched!

Director, what are you doing!

Chen Hao was about to cry but had no tears. After the security check process was completed, he turned around and said goodbye to Qian Jiahui again.

But after he took a few steps, he turned around and saw Qian Jiahui still standing there looking at him. After seeing Chen Hao turn around, he raised his hands high and swayed.

Chen Hao also waved in response.

After turning the corner, Chen Hao exhaled a long breath. The blue bars seemed to be filled up, and he was full of energy!

Half an hour later.

A direct flight from China's Ludao Island to the beautiful country of San Francisco took off.

In the first class cabin of the plane.

This Ludao Airlines aircraft is a B777-300ER aircraft. There are 6 seats in the first class cabin. Each seat is an independent suite with a sliding door design, so you can lie down and sleep.

Chen Hao's location is 1A, by the window, with three windows on the left.

Chen Hao raised the shading panels of the three windows and looked at the scenery outside through the windows.

The weather is very good today, and the visibility is also very high. The high-rise buildings outside the window are getting smaller and smaller, and after a while, the outline of the building can no longer be seen clearly.

There was no trace of Ludao, but Chen Hao showed a bright smile.

He has been on airplanes many times, but this is the happiest one.

Because this time, there was something tied up in his heart.

After not returning home for eight years, Ludao was actually a bit strange to him.

But it's different now, there's someone waiting for him to come back.

The plane jumped into the clouds, with clouds on both sides, and the scenery of the land was no longer visible.

But his heart has long been left on the land of Ludao.

…

15 hours later.

San Francisco International Airport.

Pick-up point.

Zhu Chen greeted Chen Hao with joy on his face.

"Principal, I finally look forward to seeing you!"

"Thank you for your hard work these days." Chen Hao patted the other party's shoulder and said with emotion.

"Fortunately, I have something to do to enrich myself." Zhu Chen shook his head.

"Is there nothing serious about your health now?"

"No, it has been cured a long time ago. Don't worry, principal!" Speaking of this, Zhu Chen was quite moved. The principal still remembered it. \b

"As long as it's okay, let's talk about it after we get in the car."

The suitcases were put away and the two of them got in the car.

Chen Hao sat in the back and asked: "How are the contacts with the three startup companies going? Have you received any replies?"

"Two families have reached an agreement, and only...the last one is left." Zhu Chen said with a headache.

"What happened to the remaining family? Who cares?" Chen Hao raised his eyebrows and became energetic.

"Finally, this family said that they have to talk to you face to face." Zhu Chen said helplessly.

"Is there such a request?" Chen Hao was immediately amused and couldn't help laughing, "It's interesting, so let's meet him obviously."

It’s now on the way to the hotel, and it’s already afternoon in the beautiful country. Let’s go back to the hotel to have a good rest. After getting over the jet lag, we can get busy again the next day.

"After the director of the institute is confirmed tomorrow, Director Zhu, you and I should return to China as soon as possible. There are a lot of things going on at the school," Chen Hao said.

"Okay principal." Zhu Chen nodded. He had long wanted to return to China later, but he hadn't finished handling this matter yet.

San Francisco Airport is not far from Silicon Valley, and it takes more than an hour to drive to the hotel.

After sending Chen Hao to the hotel, Zhu Chen left.

Chen Hao also completed the check-in procedures at the front desk, and the doorman helped carry the suitcase into the room.

After giving the tip, the doorman smiled, closed the door respectfully and left.

Chen Hao put the suitcase aside and walked forward.

When I came to the window, the curtains were open. When I walked in, I saw the scenery of most of Silicon Valley.

"It's still the same, not much has changed." Chen Hao looked out the window and took a long breath.

I was still in China yesterday, but in the blink of an eye, I was in the beautiful country.

"Have a good rest today, I'll be busy tomorrow."

Tomorrow morning I have an appointment with Sheridan Mack from Google, and in the afternoon I have to go see what the three entrepreneurial companies that Zhu Chen is optimistic about are doing.

…

the next morning.

In a Starbucks near Google.

At this time, Starbucks had just opened its doors, and there were only a few people in the store.

Chen Hao sat by the window, looking at the crowded streets outside, and sometimes curiously used the [Insight] skill to check.

It's just that the potential values ​​and abilities detected are relatively average, and the highest potential value I encountered was only 84.

Although Silicon Valley is full of giants and big names, it has not spread to the point where the streets are full.

While his thoughts were running wild, someone suddenly sat down in the other person's seat.

Looking up, he saw a young man in his early forties, wearing simple clothes and a pair of black polygon-framed eyes.

The other party asked first: "Ricardo?"

"Sheridan Mike?" Chen Hao also cast his gaze.

"Just call me Mike. Which class did you graduate from?" Mike smiled kindly.

In society, if you are an alumni who graduated from the same university, you will be more credible than others.

"I just graduated from MIT with a PhD this year." Chen Hao said frankly.

"Did you just graduate this year?" Mike was a little surprised. He took a closer look at Chen Hao's appearance. He was indeed too young and handsome.

"Yes, senior, which class did you graduate from?" Chen Hao said, closing the distance.

"I graduated in 2005, more than ten years ago."

After replying, Mark asked Chen Hao curiously, "According to your Chinese customs, there must be something going on when you invite me out to meet you this time, right?"

"Ahem, you know the senior director of Microsoft's Asia Research Institute, right?" Chen Hao answered directly, but cleverly made a detour.

Microsoft Research China is a scientific research institution established in Beijing on November 5, 1998 with a huge investment by Microsoft. And on November 1, 2001, it was upgraded to Microsoft Research Asia. Microsoft Research China is the second basic research institution established by Microsoft overseas and the only basic research institution in Asia.

Of course Mike knew this.

"I know Microsoft Research Asia, what do you mean?" Mike frowned and looked at Chen Hao, seeming to have some guesses in his heart.

"That's right, I'm meeting with you this time because I hope you can become the dean of Guanghua University's research institute in the beautiful country!" Chen Hao said straight to the point.

"Director of the institute? It sounds like a good idea." Just when Chen Hao was about to agree, Mike shook his head and refused, "Sorry, I think Google is pretty good too."

"Mike, are you sure that's what you said?"

The smile on Chen Hao's face did not diminish but grew. He looked at Mike and raised the corner of his mouth, "Senior Mike, five years have passed. I wonder if your dream of AR glasses is still there?"

"Sorry, I don't understand what you are talking about." Mike's face was calm.

Chen Hao was not discouraged. He took a sip of coffee and read: "Five years ago, Google officially issued a blockbuster statement: it stopped accepting orders from Google and closed the "Explore" software development project; the Google team started from the Google X experiment Separated from the room..."

"That's enough! No need to read it anymore!" Mike clenched his hands and roared in a low voice.

Seeing that Mike was losing his temper, Chen Hao expressed his understanding and that he was here to save him.

"Senior Mike, you were a Level 9 employee at Google five years ago. Five years have passed. Although you have been transferred from the Google team, you are still a Level 9 employee. Are you just going to give up?"

What makes Google different from many other large technology companies is that it has very few levels, only levels 1-12. Level 1 is the lowest, and level 12 is usually the CEO of the company. The purpose of having such a small number of levels is to ensure a very flat management of the company and prevent the company from becoming very slow in action. Of course, the disadvantage is that promotion will be difficult.

This can be divided into several different grades:

Levels 1-5, non-management.

Level 6-7, manager level Manager.

Level 8-9, director level Director.

Level 10-12, Vice President VP, Senior Vice President SVP and CEO.

As a technical expert, Mike has basically reached level 9.

From the founding of Google to the present, there have only been two great programmers who have reached Level 11. Neither of them are ordinary people.

"A newly established, oh no, a research institute that has not yet been established, and the technology giant Google, which one do you think you will choose?" Mike said lightly, with a trace of sarcasm on his lips.

Indeed, if it were a normal person to choose, they would choose the latter.

"If it were me, I would choose the former."

Before Mike could speak, Chen Hao continued: "Being the director of a newly established research institute and the middle and senior leaders of a technology giant company, I think the former is more interesting and challenging, isn't it?"

"It's interesting, keep talking." Mike looked at Chen Hao and smiled.

Free America, gun battles every day.

Americans just like challenges, otherwise how could we have the American dream?

"Senior Mike, if you continue to stay at Google, if nothing unexpected happens, you may maintain the status quo. But Guanghua Research Institute, starting from scratch, there is nothing to be afraid of."

"Join Guanghua, let's work side by side to create cross-generational AR smart glasses, let's suffocate for our dreams together... ahem, cheer for our dreams."

"And the salary will be increased by 20% based on your current salary." The last sentence is Chen Hao's killer weapon.

With Mike's current salary package, a 20% increase is not a small number.

Believe this, it will definitely make Mike happy.

"I have to admit, your dream convinced me." Mike smiled and held out his hand.

"No, it's our dream." Chen Hao smiled slightly.

Holding it with both hands, a big stone in Chen Hao's heart suddenly fell to the ground.

The problem of the director of Guanghua Research Institute has finally been solved!
