649 Nokia Strikes Back (4k)(1/2)
"Then it's settled!"
Over a meal, Lu Fei, Lacob, Larry Page and others determined the team's final investment proportion plan.
Larry Page accounts for 5% and Ballmer accounts for 25%.
Lu Fei alone holds 50%, and the three of them collectively hold 80%.
Although Lacob was busy, he had no objection.
Whatever Master Lu gives me, it is all a gift to me!
They acted as the hands-off boss and left all the acquisition of the Warriors to themselves, but fortunately, they acted as the hand-off bosses thoroughly.
The future management rights of the team also belong to themselves.
Backed by such three super funders, even if all the other 29 NBA team owners are counted, their money is still not as much as theirs. With this financial resources, they still cannot snatch the Warriors from Larry Exon.
He can hang himself on the southeast branch.
Lacob issued a military order, and Lu Fei happily took Yin Fanka in his arms, got on her Boeing 757, and flew to New York.
Not only did she prostitute Dong Jianguo's private jet for free, but she also prostituted his daughter for free. In fact, it cannot be considered free prostitution.
After all, I gave him several big projects worth hundreds of millions.
Yin Fanka kept bargaining, and vowed to make Mr. Lu bleed hard, preferably to squeeze everything out.
When getting off the plane, Lu Fei almost fell on the boarding ladder like a white pedal bridge, and then fell straight into a dog chewing mud.
"Goodbye then. Remember to come to the premiere of "Iron Man 2" with Zeng, if you still want Marvel."
Yin Fanka happily kissed him on the face.
"Huh, of course."
Lu Fei exhaled and got into the car.
Just at the airport, the two separated.
Lu Fei went to New York University without stopping.
Guo Xing, Zhang Tianmei and other senior executives, as well as the leaders of New York University, have been waiting at the newly built Logic Experiment Center.
Since reaching a strategic cooperation with New York University, we have donated money and buildings, and reciprocated the favor. It used to be a multi-touch and fingerprint recognition laboratory, but it has been directly upgraded into a research center.
"Mr. Lu."
Zeng Yu stood among the many elders and stood out.
"Are you still used to it in school?"
Lu Fei deliberately named Zeng Yu as his guide in the list of companions.
"It's very good! Everyone here is talented and speaks well, especially the teachers, they are really great!"
The “teacher” Zeng Yu refers to is Yan Lecun, the winner of the Turing Award and one of the directors of the Logic Experiment Center.
Relying on these connections, she is the first person in the school to participate in the logic project as a master's student for the first time!
I envy the international student circle and the Chinese-American circle.
"That's good."
Lu Fei gave her a look and asked her to lead the way.
"The first thing we want to visit is the speech recognition project customized for Logic phones in cooperation with Logic and Niansi."
"Code name, Tomoko!"
Zeng Yu took a deep breath and bravely explained.
Lu Fei watched her operate the "Sophon" system and listened to the report, with his hands behind his back, acting like an old man.
I originally wanted to get rid of it once and for all and just buy Siri.
At this time, Siri had only been established for less than 2 years and had not yet been swallowed up. However, the acquisition application had been stuck in the approval process of the Trade Commission. The reason was very simple——
Siri technology traces its roots to the CALO project announced by the military's Advanced Research Projects Agency.
So if you want to sell it, you can only sell it to local companies.
If you can’t buy it, we’ll make it!
It spent 500 million US dollars and spent more than a year on joint research with Nuance, the best speech recognition manufacturer in the United States.
"Compared with speech recognition systems such as Siri currently on the market, how are Sophon's various indicators? What is its accuracy?"
Lu Fei silently touched his chin with interest.
"Tomoko can be said to be far ahead of his peers!"
Zeng Yu learned his habit of speaking, "Currently, speech recognition, including Siri, can only be based on text chat services. Tomoko has realized the function of speech input and output. In the next step, it can be integrated into logical mobile phones."
Do the adaptation.”
"how long it takes?"
Lu Fei looked left and right.
"This this……"
Zeng Yu was at a loss for words and opened her mouth.
Yan Lecun answered for her: "According to the normal progress, I think there will be no problem if it is installed in this year's logic series."
"Warygood."
Lu Fei personally experienced it, and it is definitely not comparable to artificial intelligence such as chatGPT and Pangu Big Model.
But these days, it’s a black technology!
He nodded with satisfaction and went to the laboratory at the back.
In addition to voice recognition, face recognition, multi-touch, device security, biometrics, artificial intelligence, image processing...
Everything is closely related to logical business and strategy.
For example, Ocean Technology, which has been acquired, Laika, which has just completed the equity transfer, and the fingerprint recognition optical sensor developed by Goodix Technology, rely on Laika's optical imaging.
"The optical imaging array and aperture need to be aligned."
"To achieve this, the display area above and near the imaging aperture can be formed with a lower pixel density, increasing the distance between pixels and thereby increasing the light passing through the area."
"Then arriving at the area of the optical imaging array..."
Yan Lecun carefully explained the principle of operation.
"Brother-in-law."
Zeng Yu secretly pulled off Lu Fei's clothes and lowered his voice and said, "Didn't we develop a pretty good pressure sensor solution? Why didn't you agree to put it in logicX3?"
"It's very simple. The sensitivity of the pressure sensor is not high and it consumes a lot of power. It has more problems than benefits. Of course it won't work."
Lu Fei smiled, "And it's not a logical strategic goal. What I want is a true fingerprint unlocking phone, just like capacitive touch screen is the real one."
"Emmm..."
Zeng Yu frowned, seeming to understand.
"You will know when you come to work at Logic in the future. One of the primary purposes of Logic's scientific research is that 'innovation must always be combined with the market, demand, and service.' We have a dedicated internal 'industry-university-research, marketing, supply and service' system
.”
Lu Fei had a smile on his lips.
Zeng Yu was very curious, "Well, brother-in-law, should I go to Logistics immediately after I graduate?"
"It's up to you. You don't need to be logical, you can continue to study for a Ph.D., or even stay in the R&D center and study for three to five years. Maybe I'll invite you back to China and set up a laboratory with you as the core."
"Me? Just don't make fun of me."
"Who can say for sure, but you will definitely have to go back to your country. You must tell me when the time comes and I will make arrangements for you."
"Don't bother brother-in-law, I'll just come back by myself."
"You do not understand."
Lu Fei looked at her and said, "The dedicated line I will arrange for you is not one that ordinary people can use. Recently, only two people have used it."
"Who?"
Zeng Yu was startled. Returning to another country also needs to be so complicated?
Lu Fei smiled and said nothing, making a silent gesture.
Those two people are experts in the field of radio frequency——
Zhang Hao, Pang Wei.
He is also the technical leader of logic future radio frequency chips.
The radio frequency chip, like the baseband chip, is the top priority in mobile phone chips. It is the chip that converts radio frequency signals and digital signals, especially the radio frequency front-end.
Smartphones and mobile communication devices are indispensable!
