Chapter 542: Zero Point Technology’s First Employee

Cafe.

Just as the two of them ordered their drinks, a middle-aged man in a black suit entered the cafe. He swept his eyes around the hall and fell on Xu Qingzhou and the others.

Xu Qingzhou and the other person also recognized the person who came for the interview, Yorken Ross, from the photo on the resume.

The other party is a German who used to work for BASF in Germany, where he was responsible for offshore structure design, establishing holding companies within the EU, and optimizing internal capital flows and dividend distribution within the group.

Before the meeting, Song Yao asked Professor Morton's friend in Germany to check his resume. He had a 10-year career with no blemishes, and Siemens had tried to recruit him several times.

"Good morning, Professor Xu, Miss Song, nice to meet you."

"Hello, Mr. Yorken Ross, please take a seat."

Xu Qingzhou nodded.

Ross sat down straight, and while greeting, he also looked at his "new boss".

Next to the aisle is the boss, the world-renowned mathematician Xu Qingzhou, who is extremely young and has a calmness and composure that is not common at this age. The woman sitting by the window should be Song Yao, who is in contact with him. She has an elegant temperament and a good aura, giving people a feeling of being resolute and efficient.

Obviously, neither of them is an ordinary person.

Song Yao flipped open the resume and asked directly in a deep voice: "Mr. Ross, Siemens offered you a very good salary, why did you choose our newly established small company?"

"Yes, the salary offered by Siemens is 2% higher than that of Zero Point Technology."

Ross spoke frankly and said in a deep voice: "Zero Point Technology has incomparable advantages. It has just been established and is full of vitality and hope. There will be unlimited possibilities in the future."

"Before choosing to accept this job, I investigated Professor Xu's background. Compared to Siemens, I think it would be more promising to follow a boss like you. After all, if I go to Siemens, I will still only be a department manager. According to Siemens' promotion tradition, I will not have a position at Zero Point Technology before retirement."

The salary offered by Zero Point Technology is 40 yuan per year, but this does not include various welfare benefits and allowances. Except that the company is a little new and cannot compare with old companies with a long history like Siemens, everything else is good.

Careers require opportunities, but in this era, all opportunities have been snatched up by young people. For middle-aged people, it is difficult to make a breakthrough in their careers. Coming to Zero Point Technology is a risky choice, but it is also a rare opportunity.

"Thank you, I like your honesty."

Xu Qingzhou smiled and continued, "Tell me about your plans for offshore company management."

"certainly."

Over the next half hour, the two asked a few more questions, and Ross talked about the company structure and the details of establishing the Singapore branch.

As expected of a person with 10 years of professional experience, he explained every point very clearly, from team establishment to management, and then to operation, including the risks that may be faced. For example, during the fund matching process, the local tax bureau may identify the company as a "mailbox entity" and demand the collection of taxes and fines, etc.

Xu Qingzhou and Song Yao looked at each other and exchanged opinions. He stood up, stretched out his hand and said, "Mr. Ross, welcome to join Zero Point Technology. I hope that under your management, Zero Point Technology will get better and better."

Ross also stood up quickly and said solemnly: "I promise I will. Thank you Professor Xu and Miss Song for giving me this opportunity."

Sign employment contracts, confidentiality agreements, etc. on the spot.

Wait until all documents are signed.

Xu Qingzhou got down to business: "In the near future, Zero Point Technology will receive the first payment. Before that, we still have some preparation work to do."

"Are you talking about the royalties from GE?" Ross asked.

Xu Qingzhou smiled and nodded: "Yes, $5 million."

"5 million?" Ross was a little surprised. The rumors outside said it was around 3 million. He didn't expect that the first amount would be a huge sum of 5 million US dollars!

Facts have proved that his choice is correct.

He took a deep breath, suppressed his excitement, and waited for the arrangements of the two bosses.

Song Yao explained: "To be precise, the initial funding is 2 million. We signed a technology option agreement with GE. After we get the patent and apply for it temporarily, and submit the PPA through the USPTO to establish the priority date, GE will pay a 2 million advance payment, and a 3 million advance payment when the patent is authorized."

Song Yao has always been in charge of Zero Point Technology, and Ross's next work will also be arranged by Song Yao. Xu Qingzhou sipped his coffee and listened.

Song Yao handed the materials she brought to Ross, "We need to set up a branch in Singapore for fund transfer. This part of the work needs to be coordinated between you and Maples Group. This should be the same as your previous work."

"Of course, this is a routine international operation. The work is complicated. If I could, I would leave for Singapore tomorrow."

Ross said after looking through the materials.

“I’m glad you have such passion.”

At 10 o'clock in the morning, Xu Qingzhou and Song Yao came out of the cafe and walked back to their apartment along the Charles River.

Under a maple tree, Song Yao stopped moving and pointed at a chair in the distance.

Xu Qingzhou understood what he meant, patted the chair and sat down. Before he could say anything, Song Yao had already sat on his lap and warned him, "Don't move."

Xu Qingzhou mentioned many times that he wanted to sit on the chair, which made her a little worried, although, this guy shouldn't be that perverted.

"Is it not possible to receive some benefits as a chair for you?"

"no!"

This time is actually the most comfortable. The clouds have cleared, the rain has stopped, the breeze is blowing, and the sun is not as scorching as it is in the summer. Sitting by the river, all my tense nerves can be relaxed.

There is always a faint fragrance lingering at the tip of the nose.

Xu Qingzhou couldn't help but nuzzle the girl's neck in his arms, but was quickly pushed away by Song Yao.

Although it is common to see young men and women hugging each other and touching each other abroad, Song Yao is still very reserved when it comes to men and women. Of course, there is indeed an inexplicable sense of excitement.

Xu Qingzhou did not push his luck any further, and put his arm around the girl's slender waist. "How is your thesis?"

"The editor replied to my email this morning, saying that it has been sent to the external review stage."

Song Yao leaned back and leaned on Xu Qingzhou, her eyes drifting towards the water plants swaying in the wind on the river. She had been working non-stop these days and hadn't had a good time getting out for a walk.

"It's quite fast." For Xu Qingzhou, the number of papers no longer mattered, and it didn't matter whether they were signed or not, but Song Yao insisted, saying that one is one and two is two.

The paper is public, but there is no need to worry that some stubborn organization will use this plan to trap Tesla and manipulate the market.

Although the paper fully discloses the calculation logic of the cross-market resonance equation, fragility coefficient, etc., and the appendix and supplementary materials also describe key steps such as iceberg order detection and sentiment explosion in the form of mathematical formulas and flow charts, the core code is encrypted.

In addition, Song Yao had previously reported this research to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to ensure compliance with the anti-manipulation provisions of Section 10(b)-5 of the Securities Act.

How to put it, it avoids all factors that may lead to disputes.
