Chapter 971 Zhang’s new goal

Early the next morning, Meng Qian flew back to Yenching from Singapore, and went straight to Yinghaiwei for the first time.

On May 11, Meng Qian formally acquired Zhang Shuxin’s shares. Zhang Shuxin said goodbye to Ying Haiwei, but he didn’t even have a decent farewell ceremony, so he left.

“There is no need to be so low-key?” Meng Qian felt that this curtain call was a bit shabby.

Zhang Shuxin hesitated for a moment, and said in his heart, “Because it is actually reluctant to give up, so… don’t give yourself a more uncomfortable opportunity, look forward.”

“I actually admire you, if I stand in your position, I may really not be able to do it.” Meng Qian said sincerely.

“Dafeng Group cannot do without you.” Zhang Shuxin patted Meng Qian on the shoulder, “Our mission has been different from the beginning.”

“I still remember the first time we met and how you went to fish me out of the bureau.”

“You are too affectionate, sometimes you are really not cruel enough.” Zhang Shuxin also said very sincerely, “but there should be many opportunities for continued cooperation between us.”

Meng Qian realized that Zhang Shuxin was changing the subject and didn’t want to be sad anymore, so he stopped being hypocritical, “Have you arranged everything?”

“It’s arranged, I’ll leave tonight.”

“If you need help, feel free to contact me.”

“Don’t worry, I won’t be polite to you.”

On the second day after Meng Qian accepted Zhang Shuxin’s shares, Ying Haiwei and Baidu directly filed a complaint against Google directly.

The content of the lawsuit includes patent infringement, suspected monopoly of users using internal ecological binding, and improper means used in overseas competition.

Some things are very interesting. The founder of Google used Li Yanhong’s algorithm to launch Google’s algorithm. Most people recognized it, but they made a complete set of algorithm patents, and the whiteness could not be improved. Sue others for infringement, but there must always be a statement about this matter.

In the era when Google is king, more people are defending Google, and in this era when Google is down, this matter has become a topic for the public to mock Google.

When they saw that there was infringement in the lawsuits of Ying Haiwei and Baidu, everyone could not wait to trample Google to death for this reason.

At the same time as the prosecution was initiated, Zhang Shuxin, who had resigned as CEO of Yinghaiwei, appeared in the UK.

DeepMind’s Hathabis unexpectedly welcomed Zhang Shuxin into his office, “Why did Ms. Zhang suddenly visit?”

“I want to redeem myself for DeepMind.”

On the contrary, Zhang Shuxin’s directness made Hassabis stunned, “I’m not sure what Ms. Zhang meant?”

“Google can’t give DeepMind any more support. You know it in your heart, but Google relied on DeepMind’s deeds to hold you in your hands and refused to let go. It just wanted to keep a bargaining chip.

But Microsoft and other companies are not fools. Why didn’t they mention the acquisition of DeepMind when they acquired Google’s driverless business unit? Don’t they want DeepMind?

They must want it, but everyone is unwilling to redeem DeepMind at such a high price.

After all, once Google is completely down, they can get DeepMind at a much cheaper price, and DeepMind can indeed burn more money, everyone wants to slow down. ”

Hassabis motioned to Zhang Shuxin to drink some coffee. Zhang Shuxin did not drink, but continued strongly, “But I am willing to redeem DeepMind at a high price.”

“Why?” Hathabis was really puzzled.

“After I leave Yinghaiwei, I will devote myself to the medical career, and my current research and development direction is AI medical care. I recognize DeepMind in this technical field.” Zhang Shuxin said clearly and neatly.

Hathabis asked subconsciously, “Is there a related department before Yinghaiwei?”

“In the past, Yinghaiwei had an AI medical department, but it was not a large department. This time I brought the entire department out.”

“So Ms. Zhang’s vision for the future is…”

Meng Qian stretched out his hand to signal Hathabis to shut up, “I’m not here to talk about feelings with you. I don’t like to talk about feelings. Will it make sense for Mr. Hasabis to talk about feelings with Eric now?

Will Google give you half of the life-saving money because of your feelings?

If Mr. Hassabis goes to Microsoft to talk about his feelings, will they pay a high price to redeem you?

The most romantic feeling in this world is that I raise you.

Google is originally a commercial company. Since the acquisition of DeepMind, they have said that their purpose is to integrate your AI technology into Google’s various business lines and realize the commercialization of the technology.

But another reality is that DeepMind suffered widespread condemnation when it merged the health department into Google. Even if Microsoft can spend the money, Mr. Hassabis intends to go to Microsoft to experience this contradiction again, or for years. DeepMind, with a loss of more than 1 billion meters, is ready to stand on its own? ”

Hathabis suddenly felt a little funny, “Isn’t it possible that Ms. Zhang’s business doesn’t have to be profitable?”

Zhang Shuxin smiled indifferently, “DeepMind has experienced a sharp drop in word-of-mouth because of the NHS incident in the past two years. Behind the NHS incident is the contradiction between the development of AI medical care and user privacy.

But in China, this problem can be solved very well. ”

Zhang Shuxin took out his mobile phone and showed Hathabis a document. Hathabis was a little surprised, “Why are so many patients in China willing to share their privacy?”

“Because we have a relatively complete privacy use agreement.” Zhang Shuxin looked at Hathabis and said, “China Enterprise has been focusing on privacy issues since the earliest promotion of artificial intelligence.

Over the years, we have gradually reached a consensus to sign an agreement with each other. At the same time, we at Huaxia have the most complete and comprehensive privacy protection program and ethical standards in the world. If a company in Huaxia is exposed to violations of regulations, the result will be Very miserable.

The trust accumulated over the years, national legal protection, and standard user agreements of various companies have made the development of our deep learning and personal privacy conflicts as small as possible.

At the same time, China Huaxia also has a natural advantage, which is population advantage.

In our privacy environment, there are still many users who are unwilling to disclose any privacy, but because of our demographic dividend, even if only one in ten people are willing to sign agreements with companies, there are 140 million people.

Another point is meaningful to you. In terms of the balance between research and business, Huaxia has one of the best cases, that is, the cooperative relationship between Dafeng Group and Pure Land Laboratory.

Of course I want to make a profit, but I don’t need you to put your AI technology into my commercial products, because my business goals are very clear, your research direction is my business direction, and the balance you worry about , We know how to achieve it.

Of course, the premise is that you really want to make a difference in the field of AI medical care for a long time. If the answer is yes, I can tell you clearly that China is the best soil at present. ”

“It’s Meng Qian again.” Hassabis murmured unconsciously, “It’s Meng Qian’s road again.”

Zhang Shuxin suddenly smiled with some gossip, “I heard that you have always regarded Meng Qian as your opponent, but you refused when Meng Qian came to dig you?”

Hassabis hesitated and nodded.

Zhang Shuxin simply fanned the flames and said, “In the field of AI medical care, you can have a good touch with Dafeng Medical.”

Hathabis did not respond to this sentence, but directly asked, “But you can’t buy DeepMind, can you?”

“There are two operational points here. First of all, I am no longer the CEO of Yinghaiwei. It is a brand-new company that is going to acquire DeepMind, a company that is not on the list Secondly, if we leave Google DeepMind is still essentially a British company.”

“But now DeepMind is more than just the medical industry.”

“So I have been using the term redemption. For DeepMind, the most urgent thing is to get rid of Google first. After that, DeepMind can control its various business units more freely, and in order to express my attitude, In other words, it is the feelings in your eyes, I am responsible for the redemption.

As for what I want, it is your medical department. ”

This is Hassabis’s first contact with Zhang Shuxin, but he slowly discovered that he really likes this very direct feeling, and Google really can’t afford DeepMind now, but it’s not an overnight event that Google is going to go bankrupt, DeepMind. Continuing on Google may really be dragged down to death.

“I need to discuss this matter with the board of directors.”

Zhang Shuxin stood up directly, “I have been in the UK these days, waiting for your news.”
