Chapter 567: Fire Seed

While Zhang Zhe was waving his arms on Tianya Net with his account, fiercely criticizing Li Dongling's investment suggestions of buying houses and Moutai wine, of course, many people supported Li Dongling's investment opinions.

Except for hoarding Moutai wine, and buying Moutai stocks in the future, those supporters on Tianya Net were also not sure why Li Dongling was so optimistic about Moutai, but for buying houses, many posts on Tianya Net were quite supportive.

There were also some suggestions to buy houses in big cities like Yanjing and Shanghai, and gave opinions that in all countries in the world, as long as they enter the marketization era and urbanization is opened, housing prices in big cities will usher in a surge.

However, whether it was belittling or supporting, the Tianya Net administrator did not come forward to block or delete posts because it involved major shareholders.

As long as it does not involve personal attacks and does not violate the law, the scale of Tianya Net is now quite large, and user posts are basically not blocked.

In addition, the users who can go online now have good conditions themselves, and many users with high education, high income, and high cognition occasionally come up with some posts with high public opinion. Tianya Net's traffic and popularity are now quite prosperous. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the first largest Internet forum in the country or even Asia.

While arguing endlessly on Tianya Net, Li Dongling, Lin Benjian, Seeing Shen Qingyuan, and others came to the Semiconductor College of Pingyang University.

In front of a teaching building, the sign "Lin Benjian Semiconductor College" had already been hung, wrapped in red cloth, just waiting for the red cloth to be uncovered, and this semiconductor college would be established.

"The laboratories and R&D equipment supporting the Semiconductor College are currently under construction and procurement. As long as the construction is completed, they will be put into use immediately!"

Seeing Shen Qingyuan introduced to Lin Benjian, who was looking at the Semiconductor College building, that unlike other colleges, maybe in the first two years, they would only learn theoretical knowledge, and they might not even enter the laboratory a few times or touch experimental equipment before graduation.

The semiconductor laboratory of Pingyang University is playing with real knives and guns. Except for theoretical knowledge, major semiconductor materials, equipment use, chip manufacturing, application, etc., must be learned, and students of the Semiconductor College must also practice personally, and will not raise a batch of flower stands.

Looking at the semiconductor college in front of him, Lin Benjian took several deep breaths before he let his mood calm down.

What is a legacy? It is how history will evaluate you when it involves this industry in the future. It is how many traces of your life will exist in this world a hundred years later, and how many people will think of you.

And this Lin Benjian Semiconductor College in front of him is like the Yifu buildings that are blooming everywhere in the country now. In the future, the person will be dead, but these buildings will still exist. When someone is curious and searches for the origin of this building, the information related to this building will appear in front of the searcher!

"Because this year is the first batch of freshmen in the Semiconductor College, only 102 people were recruited. Next year, when teaching equipment, teaching resources, and teaching teachers are fully equipped, the number of recruits will increase!"

Seeing Shen Qingyuan introduced to Li Dongling and Lin Benjian the students who had gathered in front of the Pingyang Semiconductor College.

The 102 people who gathered in front of the Semiconductor College, each with an immature face, also looked curiously at Li Dongling, Lin Benjian, and others. They also didn't know what fate was waiting for them.

These 102 people were basically the best seedlings recruited by Pingyang University this year, and now they are acting as the fire seeds of Pingyang Semiconductor College!

Or rather, they are also talents cultivated by Dongling Gao Ke and Dongxin Semiconductor for

To a certain extent, in an era where domestic chip talent is nearly cut off, they also serve as a spark for the domestic chip industry!

"I am Lin Benjian. It is an honor that everyone could join the Pingyang University Semiconductor College!"

Hearing that Lin Benjian himself was standing right in front of them, a slight commotion rippled through the crowd. The students present had not expected that they would actually see the person for whom the semiconductor college was named standing right before them.

"Chips are the foundation of future technology. All electronic industries are inseparable from chips. This is a bright industry. I guarantee you that from now until you retire in the future, this industry will not disappear!"

"In the next few years, I will do my best to provide you with the necessary support. I hope you can join this line of work, and I also hope that one day, we can become colleagues and peers!"

Lin Benjian said this to the crowd before him. If life were always like the first meeting, people would always hold a deeper, indelible memory of the first things that happened and the people they met.

In the future, the Pingyang Semiconductor College would recruit more and more people, but the number of people Lin Benjian could remember would become fewer and fewer. As for these hundred or so people, he estimated he would remember a large portion of their names!

Li Dongling also took the microphone and looked at the people before him: "Just as Dr. Lin said, you are the first class of Pingyang University's Semiconductor College, and also the class with the highest expectations. In the future, everyone will see your achievements!"

"Not only the Semiconductor College, but Pingyang University, Dongling Gao Ke, Dongxin Semiconductor, and others will all give you the greatest support."

"I guarantee you that the Zhixing Foundation and Dongxin Semiconductor will provide you with full scholarships!"

"As long as your academic performance meets the standard, the scholarships you receive each year within these few years will far exceed the annual salary of your parents!"

"The Semiconductor College will find the best semiconductor giants and professors from both domestic and overseas to teach you courses."

"Starting from your sophomore year, you can enter Dongxin Semiconductor for internships. As long as you sign an employment agreement with Dongxin Semiconductor, Dongxin Semiconductor will fully cover all your study abroad expenses for master's and doctoral degrees overseas."

"Of course, this is not to block you from joining other semiconductor companies. We only hope that you can join Dongxin Semiconductor and stay, but if you choose whether or not to renew after the stipulated agreement with Dongxin Semiconductor expires, we also respect your own choices!"

Cultivating a top-tier semiconductor giant is not an easy task, especially in the current domestic environment.

Dongxin Semiconductor had gone to such great lengths and invested so many resources to cultivate these talents; these students of Pingyang Semiconductor College, no matter what, had to work for Dongxin Semiconductor for a few years, otherwise, wouldn't it be too much of a loss?

As for the future, whether these 102 people would all stay at Dongxin Semiconductor was hard to say. If they didn't succeed, so be it, but once they did, the number of people poaching them would not be just one or two companies; there were likely even overseas companies ready to poach them.

Of course, Li Dongling and everyone at Pingyang Semiconductor hoped that these 102 people would all succeed; then Dongxin Semiconductor would truly have made a huge profit!

It could even be said that after the domestic semiconductor market exploded in the future, it would be best if these hundred-plus people produced a few He Zun Award winners, Changjiang Scholars, Distinguished Young Scholars, or even academicians of the Academy of Engineering. By that time, domestic semiconductor talent would all come from Pingyang Semiconductor College, and the entire domestic semiconductor discourse power would basically be mastered by Pingyang Semiconductor. Who could say for sure!

After Li Dongling, Lin Benjian, and Seeing Shen Qingyuan spoke one after another, the hundred-plus students of the Semiconductor College looked at each other in dismay.

When they were recruited, Pingyang University had told them that the Semiconductor College was highly valued and would provide them with the best conditions in the entire college.

But they had not expected it to reach this point—issuing scholarships higher than their parents' income. While others spent money to go to school, they were making money by going to school.

As long as their grades were qualified, they could enter Dongxin Semiconductor directly without an interview, and all overseas study expenses would be covered. Such conditions, in the academic industry, were basically at the level of raising loyalists!

Walking on the campus of Pingyang University, Li Dongling looked at the university that was still under construction and expansion, with students rushing by holding books from time to time, all carrying a sense of vitality. One could see how the atmosphere of Pingyang University was today.

"Last year, Yanjing Education proposed the concept of 211 universities. I heard that in a few years, they will prepare to build 985 university standards to compete with top-tier overseas universities. Who knows, in the future, Pingyang University might also become a 211 or even a 985 university!"

Listening to Li Dongling's words, hope appeared in Seeing Shen Qingyuan's eyes, but then he said helplessly, "I dare not hope for so much. I just hope that Pingyang University can successfully complete its current plans!"

"I dare not hope to see Pingyang become a 211 university by the time I retire; I would be satisfied if I could just see it before the day I draw my last breath!"

"There will be such a day!"

Li Dongling said to Seeing Shen Qingyuan. If nothing else, just the two major majors of semiconductor and communication engineering, where Pingyang University and Dongling Gao Ke cooperate comprehensively—as long as Pingyang University can truly develop, by the time the 4G era and the domestic chip era arrive, Pingyang University will basically become the leader in these two major fields in the academic industry!

By then, the giants and key technical personnel in the two major fields of semiconductors and communication engineering will mostly have a background from Pingyang University. A diploma from Pingyang University will represent an annual salary of one million. Then, for Pingyang University, does the title of 211 or 985 still matter?

"Click!"

In the fishing ground of the Yuhe Leisure Resort, a fishhook entered the water. After nearly half a year, Li Dongling finally came to the fishing ground again and cast a line.

This fishing rod was a carbon fiber commemorative fishing rod sent to Li Dongling by Chen Guangwei Fishing Gear, a company Li Dongling had invested in.

Chen Guangwei had not yet broken through carbon fiber technology, but currently, through cooperation with Toray of Japan, they could obtain some carbon cloth from them. Chen Guangwei used this carbon cloth to launch domestic carbon fiber fishing rods. Although the price was still expensive, it was already much cheaper than the foreign carbon fiber fishing rods that cost tens of thousands of yuan.

Li Dongling touched the fishing rod and felt the grip was good. This rod was specially made by Chen Guangwei for their big benefactor. The rod was printed with words from the Chen Guangwei R&D Department, gifting it to their big benefactor Li Dongling, expressing the R&D department's gratitude to him.
