Chapter 77: Chapter 69 I Just Want the Whole World to Know How Great You Are (5/10 Please Subscribe, Seeking Monthly Votes)_2



Really, when he saw Qiao Ze and Su Mucheng, he didn\'t know what to say.

The only aspect Li Jiangao might be stronger in than Qiao Ze was probably his concept of money.

He still had doubts about Su Mucheng being able to take out more than two million all at once.

"Su Mucheng, do you really plan on investing this money into my... Qiao Ze\'s project?"

Li Jiangao was too ashamed to use the word "our."

"Yes! Uncle Li, it\'s just my New Year\'s money anyway."

"Do your parents know about this?" Li Jiangao asked again.

Su Mucheng explained openly, "It\'s alright, my dad said this money is mine to use however I want."

Li Jiangao shook his head and said, "No, for such a big matter, we must consult your parents. Let me call your father."

As he spoke, Li Jiangao took out his phone; he had no choice, the whole thing was just too absurd.

Although he knew the Su Family might be very rich, he never thought they would be rich enough to casually give their child more than two million to squander.

Su Mucheng nodded and then glanced at Qiao Ze.

Indeed, her Qiao Ze was generous, unlike Li, who made a fuss over every little thing.

"Hello, Mr. Su."

"Professor Li ah, hello, hello, what\'s the matter?"

"It\'s like this. Qiao Ze and I are planning a project, which involves using group theory to build a decoupling framework to facilitate the application of causality in data model training. And today, Su Mucheng came with Qiao Ze saying she wants to invest two million in our project. I felt that I must notify you for such a significant matter."

"Oh, that\'s what this is about. No worries, that\'s Chengcheng\'s own money. Moreover, I told her I wouldn\'t interfere with how she uses this money, but she must submit to me a detailed account of where the money goes. You know, I run a small company, and with Chengcheng being my only daughter, who knows, I might hand over the company to her in the future.

It\'s good for her to understand the financial operation processes early on to help her later."

After hearing this response, Li Jiangao was lost for words again.

Goodness...

A small company owner can casually take out 2 million for his daughter\'s rash investments?

It seems Mr. Su might have some misunderstandings about small companies.

If there\'s a family business to inherit, why study mathematics?

This is clearly a budding talent in management!

Ordinary students, whose families don\'t own mines, will find it difficult to apply this major in the future.

But for those with a family company to inherit and study in this field, won\'t they be able to apply their knowledge directly after graduating?!

And yet, Su Mucheng is still the top student in the School of Mathematics.

In short, after hearing Su Lixing\'s words, Li Jiangao just felt he had encountered all sorts of absurd things in just one month.

"Well, I understand. Thank you, Mr. Su."

"Haha, no need to be polite, Professor Li. Is there anything else? I have a meeting to attend in a little while."

"Oh, no, that\'ll be all, sorry for the disturbance."

"By the way, please keep Chengcheng\'s investment in this project confidential. As you know, I would rather not have too many people aware that she can take out so much money at once."

"You can rest assured about that; I\'ll keep it confidential. Thanks for your help, Mr. Su."

"Professor Li, you\'re too kind. I\'ll hang up now. Goodbye."

"Goodbye."

After hanging up the phone, Li Jian Gao took a deep breath, collected his thoughts, and then looked at the pair of children sitting opposite him.

He hesitated for a moment before saying, "Your father indeed agreed to this, but I think since it\'s an investment, we should still formalize it. How about we sign an investment contract for the project?"

Su Mucheng glanced at Qiao Ze and asked, "Uncle Li, do we really need to be so formal?"

Li Jian Gao said seriously, "It\'s indeed necessary to be this formal. Strictly speaking, Qiao Ze is now a student of the school. If the research funding were provided by the school, there\'d be nothing to say; the school would have a range of rights to future outcomes.

But since it\'s a personal investment from you, signing such a contract in advance is protection for the possible future ownership of the results."

Qiao Ze thought for a moment, then nodded his head.

He really couldn\'t be bothered to think about these convoluted matters; having Li Jian Gao offer advice was quite pleasing to him.

Suddenly understanding, Su Mucheng quickly said, "Then let\'s sign a contract. Anyway, Uncle Li, once you draft the contract, we just need to sign it, right? Let\'s decide on that then."

Li Jian Gao gave a wry smile and then said, "No, when signing a contract, you still need to settle the ownership of the final results. For example, if this project succeeds, it could involve a range of patents bearing practical value and software copyrights. What share of the rights and profits brought by these intellectual property rights should be allocated between the developer and the investor?

And who will decide the licensing of these technological patents to others? All these must be clearly stipulated in the contract; shouldn\'t you two discuss it a bit?"

Qiao Ze casually said, "The profits should just go to whoever invested; after all, all we need in the end is the paper results and the associated authorship rights."

He truly didn\'t care.

His goal in doing projects had never been for profit, and he hadn\'t thought about how much he could earn if the project really succeeded.

Not to mention that the school had already subsidized the family with three hundred thousand, and he had several million US Dollars temporarily in the Clay Mathematics Institute; once he figured out the password, he\'d be able to withdraw it. Qiao Ze had always felt that this money would be enough for him and Lu Xiuxiu for a lifetime.

Li Jian Gao nodded, but before he could express his opinion, Su Mucheng objected. She complained to Qiao Ze, "How can it be like that? I just put in some money, you are the one who will really be doing the work for the project. You absolutely can\'t be so carefree!"

After saying this, Su Mucheng turned to Li Jian Gao and said, "Well then, Uncle Li, if this project succeeds and really yields a profit, I can only take a maximum of ten percent. And all that messy stuff about external licensing and whatnot, I don\'t understand, nor do I want to understand, just leave it to Qiao Ze to decide."

Li Jian Gao paused, thinking, these two youngsters...

If investors and researchers could talk like this in the future, the integration of industry, academia, and research would advance like crazy, and it wouldn\'t be a dream.

After all, everyone was approaching this with the mindset of doing a good deed, which was exceedingly rare.

"Um..." Just as Li Jian Gao was about to interject, Su Mucheng gave him a sweet smile and said, "Just do it my way, you see Qiao Ze has no objections."

Li Jian Gao looked at Qiao Ze.

It wasn\'t that Qiao Ze had no objections, but that he had always been indifferent.

"So should I draft the contract according to what Su Mucheng said?"

Qiao Ze asked, "And you?"

"Me?!"

Li Jian Gao shook his head vigorously, "No worries, just like you said, having a bit of authorship as my contribution means I\'m already taking advantage. And I am a professor at the university after all; if I appeared in the contract, it would actually become troublesome later on, tying us back to the university, wouldn\'t it?

It\'s better if the two of you as students, even if you kick off this project, leave the university with nothing to say. Let\'s just keep a low profile and do things well, without causing troubles."

Indeed, Li Jian Gao genuinely had no desire whatsoever to be entangled in any economic benefits from this project.

He wasn\'t worthy!

And he didn\'t want to disturb his conscience.

After all, there is a difference between people: some can abandon their conscience for money, while others feel as if the sky has fallen without it.

Clearly, Li Jian Gao belonged to the latter category.

"Then let\'s just go with that," Qiao Ze nodded.

No pushing away, no arguing; after all, these trifles didn\'t affect him in any way.

It wasn\'t a big deal.

However, after Li Jian Gao efficiently prepared the contract, had both parties sign and imprint their fingerprints, Qiao Ze still earnestly said to Su Mucheng, "Thank you."

"Haha, what\'s there to thank? Qiao Ze, you\'re meant to stand under the spotlight, I just hope I can see that sooner, and that everyone can know how exceptional you are!"

Seeing this scene, Li Jian Gao suddenly felt a bit envious.

He suddenly thought... perhaps he should find a girlfriend too.
