Chapter 101 A Little Contribution
Just like that, Lu Zhou decisively released Brother Fei's pigeon.
At about four or five o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Zhou got into Professor Li's car at the school gate, took the car for about 20 minutes, and arrived at the destination quickly.
The Zijin Mountain Hotel is located on the edge of Zijin Mountain, and it looks really dignified. Both the scale and the surrounding environment are impeccable. Standing in the parking lot and looking west, one can vaguely see the mountain peak wrapped in the sunset glow, and the sycamore forest that is connected into one piece.
Just looking at the appearance, Lu Zhou can't tell how many stars it is, but just looking at the decoration, it is worth hundreds of millions.
After getting off Professor Li Rongen's car, Lu Zhou, who didn't want to go up to join in the fun, stood beside the parking lot with his two seniors, waiting for the opportunity to enter.
Looking at the big men in suits and leather shoes at the door, Lu Zhou, who visited such a luxurious hotel for the first time, asked a little awkwardly: "We, really don't need to change clothes?"
Liu Bo laughed and said, "No, let's do research casually, as long as you don't wear slippers, no one will tell you... well, it doesn't matter if you wear slippers, at most, Lao Li will say something about you when he sees it. "
Glancing at the door, Lu Zhou asked, "Are those people from the project team?"
Qian Zhongming adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose and said, "The basics are those who wear casual clothes, but those who wear suits and bow ties are not. In fact, it is very easy to distinguish."
Lu Zhou: "Who are those people in suits?"
Liu Bo said with a smile: "There are all kinds of people who have interests. For example, the one on the left of our Professor Li is Liu Wanshan, the chairman of Zhongshan New Materials, and the one next to him seems to be the general manager of Jinling Building Materials. I can't remember the name." It’s clear. In short, one is a listed company and the other is a semi-state-owned enterprise, both of which are not small.”
Lu Zhou glanced at Professor Li's attire. It was neither casual clothes nor a suit, but a very straight Chinese tunic suit.
emmm...
Probably somewhere in between?
Lu Zhou couldn't help but continue to ask: "What is a boss of this level doing here?"
Liu Bo smiled: "Our scientific research project is invested by Zhongshan New Materials, and Zhongshan New Materials and Jinling Building Materials are partners. Have you heard of the Silk Road strategy?"
Lu Zhou nodded.
He still reads the news.
"In Pakistan's infrastructure projects, the two companies, as material suppliers, have large projects with a total value of more than two billion yuan. The carbon nanotube modified cement-based composite material we studied has excellent corrosion resistance and various properties. It performed very well in all mechanical performance tests, and it is perfect for repairing bridge piers and wharfs, and it can be regarded as contributing hundreds of millions of orders." Senior Brother Liu said something incredible with a calm face.
More than two billion!
Lu Zhou was shocked.
I didn't expect the scientific research project I participated in to have such an awesome capital background.
Although it may be a small contribution to the entire investment project, it is also a contribution!
In addition to being shocked, Lu Zhou couldn't help feeling emotional.
These more than two billion...
It would be nice if you could share me a little bit.
Not too much, even 0.25%, is enough for me to complete the system tasks.
Liu Bo patted Lu Zhou on the shoulder, and grinned: "Okay, let's not talk about it, we don't have to worry about so much research, there are special people responsible for attracting investment and running projects, have you figured out where to go?"
Qian Zhongming thought for a while and said, "I plan to go to Chang'an to see the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, and to visit my old classmates by the way."
Liu Bo: "Damn, what's so interesting about the terracotta warriors and horses? I haven't had enough fun playing with sand in the laboratory. Why don't you go abroad with me to visit Southeast Asia? Lao Li told us not to save him money. So many, we can’t live up to his old man’s expectations! Where’s Lu Zhou? Where are you going?”
Lu Zhou said helplessly, "I have to take an exam, so I can't leave."
"I almost forgot, you're still in the undergraduate course, isn't it the exam month? You're very busy." Liu Bo smiled, "I said, why don't you just graduate early, what else can the undergraduate course teach you? Submit materials later. Physics, come to our laboratory, let me tell you, Professor Li is generous to himself."
Lu Zhou coughed lightly: "I'll think about it."
Soon, the group of people at the door began to enter.
Liu Bo patted Lu Zhou on the shoulder, and the group followed him to the door.
In Hall No. 2 on the second floor of the hotel, a red carpet was spread all the way from the elevator to the main entrance, and a dozen or so round tables were placed inside, just like the company's annual meeting. It was far from as simple as Professor Li said to reserve a few tables.
After entering the venue, Professor Li Rongen waved to him, motioned Lu Zhou to come over, then looked at the big guy next to him, and said with a smile.
"This is the one I told you about, the master of our Jindashu Institute, Lu Zhou who has overcome the world-class mathematics problem. Our project can go so smoothly, and we have saved a few months of detours, thanks to this The great help of a master...Come on, Lu Zhou, let me introduce you, this is the chairman of our Zhongshan New Materials, Mr. Liu Wanshan."
"Hello, Mr. Liu." Lu Zhou shook hands with him a little cautiously.
"Hello, hello, you are Lu Zhou. I have seen your news article, and even Renren Daily praised your achievements. When I saw you today, you are really a good-looking talent." Liu Wanshan looked at Lu Zhou, He nodded approvingly, smiled and continued, "Don't be so stiff, speaking of it, we are still alumni."
Lu Zhou was slightly surprised: "Mr. Liu also graduated from Jin University?"
"Department of Economics and Management, Jinda Business School in 1994," Liu Wanshan said with a smile, "Speaking of which, I also took your advanced math class from Tang, and I still remember it fresh."
It turned out to be the 94th class!
Lu Zhou counted, this person must be at least 20 years older than himself. This is to say the least, after all, the school age in the 1980s and 1990s was not as accurate as it is now.
I really can't see it, I didn't expect Lao Tang to have taught mathematics for more than 20 years!
Since he is an alumnus, there are naturally many topics to talk about. This Liu Wanshan is also an interesting person.
Although he has a beer belly, wears a gold watch, and looks like a nouveau riche all over his body, after chatting for a few words, Lu Zhou found that although this person looks a little bit like a nouveau riche, judging from his speech and behavior, that He is also a literate nouveau riche, and ordinary people may not be able to match him.
At least, his respectful attitude towards knowledge is still very easy for cultural people to have a good impression of. And between the words, there was no pretense of being a billionaire and the chairman of a listed company. Lu Zhou was unexpectedly able to chat with this person.
However, this favor did not last long.
While chatting, the topic reached the place that Lu Zhou didn't want to talk about the most.
Liu Wanshan smiled and continued: "By the way, I heard from your Professor Li that you seem to be working on some entrepreneurial project for college students recently? It seems to be called a campus train?"
To be precise, it has been changed to Campus Assistant, but the name of the app has not been changed yet, and it is only waiting for a version update.
Lu Zhou's expression was a little subtle, and he nodded with a smile: "Yes."
Liu Wanshan smiled and said, "How is it? Have you made any achievements?"
Lu Zhou: ...
Can we not mention this?
The Twelve Arhats became seven gourd babies, and the only remaining programmer frantically coded, and the new version is still far away...
Although there is something MMP wants to say in his heart, Lu Zhou still has to keep a smile on his face: "It's okay, the number of users has grown to one million now, according to user feedback, our booking system is still very popular .”
As for barely three-digit DAUs and shrinking startup loans...
what is that?
Not sure.
"There are one million registered users? That's ok." Liu Wanshan glanced at Lu Zhou in surprise, and continued to ask, "Has the angel wheel started?"
"Not yet, but we've been contacting relevant angel investors and funds recently, so it should be soon." Lu Zhou said perfunctorily.
Fatty Wu and Yuan Liwei have been running with bp and ppt for almost half a month, and there is still no result.
To be honest, Lu Zhou, the founder, almost gave up.
At the beginning, it was purely a hands-on app, so I didn't expect it to be so troublesome.
It was Liu Wanshan who raised his eyebrows with interest and asked, "How much do you plan to melt?"
Lu Zhou thought for a while: "It's expected to be about two million."
Liu Wanshan nodded, and asked thoughtfully, "Two million, isn't it a little less? I know a few friends in the venture capital circle. They spend money to invest in any Internet company. A BP of one or two million is not enough. If you don’t take a look, you don’t even talk about a volume of five or six million.”
Lu Zhou coughed lightly and said, "Two million Angel Wheels are enough to burn, and the monthly promotion expenses are only two to three hundred thousand. We have reduced other operating costs to a minimum. We expect to reach the number of users in the second half of the year. Two million, and then start the A round, and it will not be too late to set expectations a little higher."
"Not bad, it seems that you all know how to spend the money raised." Liu Wanshan nodded with a smile, pondered for a while, and said, "That's all right, I'll invest 5 million first Try it."
"..."
Lu Zhou:? ? ?
Huh? Am I hearing something wrong?
