As a Mage, I Only Want to Pursue Truth

A mage accidentally drifts to Blue Star. The intelligent life on Blue Star cannot influence reality by manipulating dark matter, thus the mage loses their casting ability.

In order to recover...

Chapter 81 IPO of Science and Technology Innovation Biotechnology

As the head of the Lion City R&D Center, Li Wanqing did not have a strategic placement share in this IPO of Kechuang Bio.

However, he wasn't too disappointed because he had only been working at Kechuang Biotechnology for a short time, and he would definitely be the next one to have an employee stock ownership plan.

However, he has some stock options.

For mid- to senior-level employees, stock option earnings can constitute a significant portion of their income, although there are time restrictions on option vesting. For example, you need to have worked for the company for three years before you can trade your options on the secondary market.

"I see that the brain-computer interface test data from the English department is very impressive, not far behind that of the Chinese department," Zheng Li praised.

He was quite satisfied with Li Wanqing's work ability, as he had strong execution skills and could implement the experimental design according to his requirements.

"In a recent large-scale human trial, the brain-computer interface recognition rate for English speakers has reached over 95%."

“I think we can directly sell this product to those mobile phone manufacturers,” Li Wanqing said.

Zheng Li shook his head: "We don't lack money now, there's no need to waste our reputation."

"Have you encountered any difficulties in the research progress of brain-computer interface technology in other fields?"

Li Wanqing glanced at the experimental log: "Our recent progress on the application of brain-computer interface technology in prosthetics is going smoothly. After adding neural points in the prefrontal cortex of the brain, the current progress is consistent with our expectations."

"Neurofeedback training takes a long time, so the results of each phase of the experiment will take a long time to arrive."

"Furthermore, regarding brain-computer interface technology to help patients recover lost emotional functions, the relevant technology is progressing slowly, and a breakthrough has yet to be found."

After a moment's thought, Zheng Li suggested, "You can design a new method for selecting regions."

"This method identifies sub-regional networks in distributed brain regions that are relevant to emotions, making them sufficient for decoding."

"Then a dynamic model is trained in the sub-network without emotion supervision to reduce the dimensionality of the network activity, and then further regressed to emotion scores."

"The decoder first evaluates the low-dimensional state to see if it can be used to predict the emotional changes of each subject."

"I'll send you the detailed ideas in your email later."

Li Wanqing almost regarded Zheng Li as Aladdin's lamp, granting his every wish.

......

At the listing ceremony of Kechuang Biotechnology, executives and representatives of shareholders who invested in Series A and B rounds participated in the ceremony.

Li Miaomiao wasn't particularly excited; she just felt it was all very surreal. The decision she made back then led her to participate in the establishment and listing of a company with a market value of over 400 billion RMB.

She wondered if Zheng Li, who was far away in Singapore, was watching the live broadcast.

"I'm afraid not. At most, Zheng Li will remember it and then continue with his own business."

“Going public is the most important thing for many founders, but it seems to be insignificant to Zheng Li.”

Surrounded by work, Li Miaomiao had always wanted to visit Singapore in person, but she couldn't find the right time or excuse to go.

"Junior sister, congratulations!" Lei Jun was very happy; this was the investment with the highest return he had ever made.

Li Miaomiao forced a smile and said, "Same to you, thank you Shunwei Capital for your initial support."

Lei Jun, wearing his ever-present blue shirt and navy blue jacket, said, "I invested in Zheng Li because I had high hopes for him."

"I knew he had a bright future, but I never expected him to rise to prominence so quickly."

Li Miaomiao thought back to the study room on the sixth floor of the seventh dormitory of the lakeside. The lake view outside the window seemed to be vivid in her mind. Zheng Li was sitting in the study room explaining problems to her with a serious expression.

When Zheng Li casually solved the Qiu competition problem she had carefully prepared, she probably already knew that he had a bright future ahead of him.

I just never imagined that the bright future wouldn't lie in mathematical research, but rather in the field of biopharmaceuticals.

After a moment of confusion, Li Miaomiao came to her senses: "It's a pity Zheng Li isn't here today, otherwise I should have asked him to treat you to a meal to thank you."

Lei Jun: "By the way, when is he planning to come back? He's been gone for almost a year."

Li Miaomiao: "He said he would come back after his research project made progress."

Lei Jun asked curiously, "Is it a brain-computer interface?"

Li Miaomiao shook her head: "No, Zheng Li has already handed over the follow-up research on brain-computer interfaces to Li Wanqing, the R&D director of Kechuang Bio in Singapore. You met Li Wanqing when he reported the progress at the last remote board meeting."

“I don’t understand Zheng Li’s current research topic either; it’s too specialized, and I don’t want to understand it.”

Lei Jun didn't know if Zheng Li had mentioned lithium battery optimization to Li Miaomiao, so he didn't say anything: "Haha, Zheng Li is a scientific genius. It's hard for us ordinary people to enter his world."

“We should participate in more of the activities of our Jiangcheng University Alumni Association. This is also a way to expand our network. Chen Dongsheng has been saying that he wants to meet you.”

Li Miaomiao: "I am still studying at Jiangcheng University, so it would be inappropriate for me to participate in alumni association activities."

She has been reinstated as a student, and the School of Economics and Management is quite lenient with her; Li Miaomiao only needs to be present for exams.

Lei Jun laughed: "It's okay, just think of it as participating in advance. Besides, aren't current students alumni?"

The Chinese stock market opens at 9:15 a.m.

The period from 9:15 to 9:30 is the call auction period, during which the system will match all buy and sell orders received during this time in one go.

N Science and Technology Innovation Board +105.6% 2093.48 Market Value 837.4 billion RMB

The executives present cheered, because it meant their wealth would double, with the minimum strategic placement quota being 80,000 shares.

Even the lowest-paid executive earned 80 million.

Li Miaomiao felt somewhat numb; her efforts were insignificant compared to the rewards.

Cheng Gang, feeling fortunate to have seized the greatest opportunity of his life, leaned close to Lei Jun and thanked him:

"Mr. Lei, although I've said it many times, I still want to thank you. I sincerely appreciate the opportunity you've given me."

Lei Jun did not take credit: "This is your own hard work. At that time, you were the only one I had who was suitable for that position. I really can't say how much help you provided."

"I simply put the right people in the right places, and in terms of results, you did a pretty good job."

"If Zheng Li's R&D capabilities and achievements are the most important factors, then your ability to build a scientific and technological innovation biological framework, establish a team, and quickly obtain overseas approval for endorphins are also factors for success."

Cheng Gang explained, "I only did minor work. The most important thing is Chairman Zheng's research results. Even without me, Kechuang Bio would have achieved the same success, it would just have taken a little longer."

After the market officially opened at 9:30, the stock price of Kechuang Bio continued to rise, slowly increasing amid fluctuations.
