Chapter 32: Genius Project! Test your IQ!
[Note: The protagonist joins Wah Kee at this age to recruit people, but will later start his own company!]
Although Zheng Housheng said this with a smile, everyone knew that he was not joking.
With the technology Luo Yao possesses, he will be a target for companies from all over the world no matter where he goes.
The capital cadre then spoke up, "We will send someone to protect Luo Yao and his family. Are they all in East City right now?"
Zheng Housheng looked at Meng Xiangping and motioned for him to answer. Meng Xiangping immediately said, "They are all at East China University of Science and Technology. He also has a sister who is repeating her senior year at No. 1 Middle School."
"Well, that would make it easier to protect them," the capital cadre said as he thought about it.
"But for now we can only monitor secretly. If we send someone for close protection now, it would alert the enemy too much."
Zheng Housheng nodded: "Everything will be arranged according to your wishes."
"Our idea is to bring his parents to Green Boat, and for his sister, to study through online classes."
Peng Xun, President of the Human Resources Management Department, asked, "Isn't this a bit too strict? It hasn't been revealed yet that Luo Yao developed the entire EDA system. Others probably don't know his value."
"Luo Yao is a genius, not just an ordinary person. Our technicians even found a livestream of him online, but it's been completely removed."
"He 's already very outstanding. Don't you think someone will come after him?"
“We care, and others know we care.”
"When it comes to competing for technical talent, some people will be ruthless." The representative of the East China Investment Committee spoke in a serious tone, forcing everyone else to re-examine the issue.
"His visit to Huaji today might be discovered in a few days. It's always better to be cautious. There are so many people in the school, so it's best to protect them in advance. Everyone should remember that Luo Yao is not an ordinary person."
Since the representative of the East China Investment Commission has spoken , no one else dares to object.
Zheng Housheng then turned to Zheng Mengrong and said, "Luo Yao currently doesn't have a position. His base salary will be determined according to the 'Genius Plan.' Is that okay with you?"
Zheng Mengrong pondered for a few seconds and said, "The 'Genius Plan' currently has three salary levels, with the highest level only offering 2 million yuan. I think that's a bit low."
Zheng Housheng smiled brightly. "As expected of my daughter, you're very thoughtful. But you know, no one who joins the 'Genius Project' will admit that others are better than them. If you create a special category for Luo Yao, how can others be convinced?"
"You can't tell anyone that Luo Yao developed EDA all by himself. That would be a leak."
"Actually, there's a way. Everyone who joins the 'Genius Project' takes an intelligence test. As long as Luo Yao's intelligence is higher than others, then no one will say anything."
Zheng Housheng remained silent after hearing this, but Meng Xiangping spoke up: "That does seem like a solution. I heard Luo Yao say his IQ was 300. I wonder if he was joking?"
"Hahaha, this kid is really good at talking. Okay, let's test him. If the test shows that he's about the same as other geniuses, we can do something to make him taller than the others."
"Who currently has the highest IQ in the 'Genius Project'?"
"Sergei, from the Big Bear country, IQ is 165."
"Then just need to exceed this number. Mengrong, you are the rotating president this time, you can arrange it." Zheng Housheng arranged.
Zheng Mengrong nodded in agreement.
After the meeting, Zheng Mengrong stopped Peng Xun and said, "Please arrange for Luo Yao's family to live there. Don't let him leave the campus for the time being." After Peng Xun agreed and left, Zheng Mengrong said to Meng Xiangping, "Is Luo Yao a freshman now? With his level, there's no need for him to be a freshman anymore. Remember to talk to Director Xia about this."
Meng Xiangping certainly understood that Zheng Mengrong was paving the way for Luo Yao so that he wouldn't have to waste time in college. He would basically be staying in the laboratory from now on, so how would he have time to go back to school?
After Meng Xiangping agreed, he went to find Xia Qing and told her about it.
Xia Qing was in a dilemma: "Direct doctoral students need at least a bachelor's degree. Luo Yao's current situation makes it difficult to implement."
"I think there's a way to solve this. If all my daily scores are full marks, as long as I complete the relevant undergraduate exams and projects, won't that solve the problem?"
"Luo Yao is coming to the lab here to lead a team. He's already got his social practice scores. What are you worried about?"
After hearing what Meng Xiangping said, Xia Qing thought about it and felt that it was indeed feasible.
Special talents have to be treated specially, there is no other way around it.
"But Director Xia, you can't tell the school that Luo Yao has developed EDA. Luo Yao can't return to school for the time being."
"Just tell him he's developing a project here with us."
Xia Qing was stunned for a moment, then realized that this was to protect Luo Yao.
"What about his family?"
"The family will take it over and handle it together. Don't worry, we will handle it."
Xia Qing felt relieved after hearing Meng Xiangping's assurance.
When Xia Qing arrived at the school, she went straight to the principal to discuss Luo Yao's situation. The principal was silent for a moment before saying, "Professor Xia, since you won't tell me about Luo Yao, I won't ask in detail. Luo Yao's qualifications are indeed suitable for direct doctoral studies."
"Our direct doctoral training method is the '3+2+3' model. Three years of on-campus study are waived. He just needs to remember to come back and take the exam. The remaining two years of off-campus internships and three years of special research projects are arranged by you."
Xia Qing thought that since things had come to this point, there was nothing more to say. As long as Luo Yao was serious and followed this path, getting a doctorate would not be a problem.
After taking care of all this, Xia Qing returned to the office to deal with the homework. She now felt particularly dazed. One of her students was now participating in a top domestic project, while the rest of the students could not even write a complete IP core.
Why is there such a big difference in people’s conduct?
After Xia Qing finished grading the homework, she decided on three people who could join the project she was in charge of.
She originally wanted to bring these students into the EDA project she was about to start.
Now, the project hasn't started yet, but the EDA has already come out. She recalled Meng Xiangping's words and knew that the EDA department would be reorganized into a laboratory. Although she would be there at that time, she would not be the one in charge.
It’s Luo Yao.
Xia Qing looked at the three people chosen and decided to let Luo Yao choose.
Xia Qing sent a text message to Luo Yao, and Luo Yao replied quickly.
【Waiting for the interview.】
Xia Qing: ...
Luo Yao is really worthy of being called that. He is ruthless and wants to interview even when seeing his classmate's name.
The three names Xia Qing sent were Wu Tianming, Wang Ye and Tang Dong.
She thought the other party would directly tell him that they wanted Wu Tianming and Wang Ye, but the low EQ Luo Yao still an interview.
As a professor, she must of course speak out on behalf of her students, so she replied:
【good.】
Then she announced the names of the three selected candidates and their interview notices in the microelectronics major group.
"Hey Dazha: Luo Yao, the top student, isn't on the list?"
"Dinosaur Anti-Waves: Wasn't Luo Yao a special recruit? Why didn't Professor Xia choose him?"
"Tang Sanqian: But these three have excellent academic performance, so it makes sense not to choose Luo Yao!"
"Yan Chao Kuo Luo: That university bully must be feeling pretty down right now. I heard he didn't even go to class this afternoon. Was he pissed off?"
Men's dormitory, Room 606.
When Wu Tianming saw the message in the group, he finally realized what it meant to be afraid of what people said.
"Santu just didn't go to class because of something, so how come someone spread the news and made him so angry that he didn't go to class?"
Wang Ye looked at the message without answering. After a moment, he said, "Why didn't Professor Xia choose Luo Yao? We both got into the project, but he didn't. If he comes back, how are we going to face him?"
Wu Tianming was stunned for a moment, then realized that this matter was far more embarrassing than he had imagined.
The two of them were able to get into the project this time thanks to Luo Yao's lectures in the early stages, but now that Luo Yao didn't get into the project, it's really troublesome.
This is like helping your brother to chase his girlfriend, and halfway through you find out that the girl likes you. What should you and your brother do next?
However, Wu Tianming quickly calmed down and said, "There will be more interviews later, and we might be rejected."
Wang Ye said, "Hey!" and said, "Can you say something nice? I want to join Professor Xia's project and impress Luo Zhu!"
"I think we should talk to Professor Xia about this when we get to the project. After all, we're both in, and it wouldn't make sense for Luo Yao, with his strength, not to go in."
"That's a great idea! It's not convenient to talk to Professor Xia now, just wait until we join the group!"
"No matter who comes in, let's talk to Professor Xia about this!"
"It's a deal!"
Almost at the same time, Peng Xun, President of Huaji Human Resources Management Department, had already made nearly ten calls.
"Old Li, have you arranged the house yet?"
"What? All the houses facing south are gone? No, you must find a way to find me one this time!"
“There’s only one single-family house that meets the requirements?”
"Then remember this one first, and then give me a few more options for apartments."
After Peng Xun hung up the phone , he began to wait for the other party's message. An hour later, the other party sent a message. After Peng Xun sorted out the information, he sent it to Zheng Mengrong.
"Boss Meng Rong, please help me choose a place for Luo Yao's family to live."
Peng Xun organized it very clearly, covering everything from area to lighting to decoration.
"Let's go with this single-family villa. It's quiet, and Luo Yao's family won't be disturbed by others."
Peng Xun paused after hearing this, then reminded, "But President Meng Rong, this villa is only available to CEO-level executives..."
"Rules are dead, but people are alive. Besides, who says Luo Yao won't be able to get the CEO position in the future?"
Of course, Peng Xun knew that Luo Yao had a bright future, but he couldn't make a direct decision on anything that broke the rules, so he asked this question.
Otherwise, if he really felt that Luo Yao was not qualified to live there, he would not have included the villa as an option.
"Okay, I'll go get the house ready."
"Don't forget about testing Luo Yao's intelligence. I'm really looking forward to it. Will his score be higher than Sheguer's?"
"Understood. I'll do it right away."
