Financial freedom starts with smiling at life

Phoenix TV special program.

"Breaking international news: OpenAI is making another big move, launching the Stargate project, spearheaded by the White House, with Oracle and SoftBank investing hundreds of billions of dollars to support it..."

"The United States is secretly planning to build an AI factory, which will be the world's largest AI infrastructure project, and computing power will reach a new level..."

Host: "What is the deeper meaning behind this move? Our technology and military experts will provide you with an in-depth analysis."

Technology experts: "The White House's move is aimed at centralizing computing power and achieving technological hegemony."

I wonder if any of you have watched Luo Yonghao's interview program. This morning, Jiang Beicheng was a guest on Luo Yonghao's interview program.

He brought up this topic, and it can be said that he perfectly predicted the actions and intentions of the United States.

In his words, the competition for computing power has evolved into a fierce arms race…

Military expert: "I also watched President Jiang's interview program, and I strongly agree with his views."

An investment of $500 billion over four years is unprecedented in the AI ​​industry. Such large-scale infrastructure construction has spread from the United States to Europe and even the Middle East... The purpose is clear: to achieve technological hegemony.

The logic behind this is that AI standards, global AI governance rules, and so on will all fall into the hands of the United States.

We say that humanity will inevitably enter the AI ​​era. It can be said that whoever wins this computing power arms race will control the global AI order and redefine the global power landscape.

This competition is very important to us.

Host: "In the eyes of the two experts, what are our chances of winning?"
What are our current solutions?

Technology experts: "China's current large-scale AI models have reached a fairly high level. However, the problem of being held back by chip technology has restricted the computing power of China's large-scale AI models."

However, we have a very mature AI business system that has been applied to various industries. Digital cities can provide massive data support for the learning of large models.

At the same time, we have also noticed that large models like Deepseek have taken a new approach, pursuing higher performance by improving algorithm efficiency without the support of high-performance computing chips.

Of course, Huawei, Cambricon, SMIC, Tsinghua Unigroup... have all made significant breakthroughs in chips.

I believe that with these companies and entrepreneurs like Mr. Jiang and Mr. Ren, our technological level will achieve a leapfrog development and lead the world.

Military expert: "Your analysis is very detailed. I need to emphasize one point here: the competition for AI computing power is no less than the nuclear weapons competition of the last century."

The role that President Jiang and President Ren play today is no less important than that of the scientists who worked quietly and dedicated themselves to the western regions in the past.

Every generation has its own mission. In the interview, President Jiang mentioned the value function of entrepreneurs, which I think has raised the thinking of domestic entrepreneurs to a new level.

We must use every means to fulfill our mission of this era.

It's hard to imagine that a 30-year-old entrepreneur possesses such a macro-level vision and such a far-sighted perspective.

Technology expert: "I would like to add one last thing. I boldly predict that President Jiang's interview with the United States about the Stargate project will trigger a chain reaction in China, and the entire AI industry will soon usher in an industrial upgrade."

Host: "Both of you have repeatedly mentioned President Jiang in your views, which shows that you two senior experts highly recognize President Jiang as a leader of our time."

According to our sources, Jiang Zemin has been subjected to some intangible cultural heritage-related issues because he compared himself to Ren Zhengfei of Huawei during an interview.

What do you two think?

Technology expert: "What criticism? The seniority system in the business world?"

It is estimated that Mr. Ren will also be very much looking forward to meeting with Mr. Jiang and carrying out in-depth cooperation.

People at their level have a far higher level of thinking and value system than ordinary people, so the opinions of netizens are not worth considering.

The fact that President Jiang dared to place himself in the same position as President Ren in such a public interview shows that he has the confidence. Don't forget that President Jiang spent 2 billion yuan to poach AI talent at the beginning of the year, and there has been no word of it since.

It's said that President Jiang also has plans in the chip manufacturing industry. I'm really looking forward to seeing what kind of product he'll come up with to slap netizens—no, I mean, to slap the faces of Silicon Valley tech giants.

Military experts stated: "Don't underestimate President Jiang just because he is only thirty years old. His strategic thinking is far superior to that of many entrepreneurs."

I believe he will give us many surprises.

……

Jiang Beicheng only turned on his phone when he was about to land in Bangkok and saw that Luo Yonghao had sent him the video of today's interview.

He smiled after watching it; Lao Luo still has guts, he didn't cut a single second.

The stupid questions he asked, as well as his discussions of sensitive topics such as the planned economy, were not fully edited and released.

Without a doubt, it will cause a huge social impact.

Even before Jiang Beicheng opened Douyin, he was already mentally prepared on how to deal with the show-offs and boasts that Jiang Beicheng had made.

It's not enough to just talk the talk; we can't just boast.

We need to win people's hearts and minds with practical means.

If you open Douyin (TikTok), the trending topics are mostly about "AI".

He hadn't expected the White House to be so tense. Had Trump watched his interview?

A smile appeared on his face.

I played a joke on myself.

Jiangbei City had anticipated the US's moves long ago, having already noticed some clues when they were poaching talent from Silicon Valley at the beginning of the year.

Private equity, public funds, and industrial capital are all flowing into AI.

Putting aside the issue of industrial bubbles that he discussed with Luo Yonghao, this move alone is actually an arms race, and a calculated one at that.

I'm throwing real money into it.

Are you going to join or not?

Just like the Soviet Union in the last century, it was dragged down by the open conspiracy of the arms race.

If you follow, you might catch up, or even take the lead; if you don't, you'll definitely fall behind.

Falling behind means losing the right to speak.

Moreover, it's the AI ​​industry, which can redefine the global power landscape.

Even if there's a huge bubble, we should still waste this enormous sum of money.

When it comes to money, Jiangbei City, with its system, has a unique advantage.

Even if SoftBank and Oracle were to attack him, or even if the entire Jewish financial group were to besiege him, he would only need to spend more time upgrading the system.

So regardless of CCTV's military programs, Phoenix TV's special reports, or various interpretations and praises from self-media accounts, Jiang Beicheng remained calm.

What he is doing will be recorded in history.

Having already entered this arms race of computing power, there is absolutely no way we will back down.

Otherwise, it would be embarrassing for the system.

The system would feel ashamed of such a host.

I glanced at the system panel.

Number of smiles: 89267/100000

The upgrade is just one step away.

In addition to increasing the cash limit, this time there will be technical patent support.

It's time to install a big one.

"Aunt Shen, arrange a video conference," Jiang Beichen said while watching the news discussions.

Shen Jun: "On the plane or in the hotel?"

Jiang Beicheng looked at Yu Nian, the flight attendant who was putting shoes on him, and Yu Nian immediately understood, "Mr. Jiang, we will land in Bangkok in half an hour."

Jiang Beicheng instructed Shen Jun: "Hotel, 7 PM sharp."

The CEOs of both Deep Dimension Technology and Meta Consciousness Group must attend.

DeepVision Technology is in charge of the AI ​​large-scale model project, and the AI ​​geniuses that Jiangbei City poached from the United States at exorbitant prices are all in this company.

Meta Consciousness is responsible for chip design and manufacturing. So far, the company is only semi-transparent. Industry peers think it is a company with great potential and strong financial backing, but the general public is relatively unfamiliar with it.

Jiangbei City is planning to leverage the Open-AI Stargate project to create momentum and boost the domestic chip and AI industries. A Stargate project with an investment of 500 billion US dollars isn't something to intimidate anyone.

They wanted to play psychological warfare, but they chose the wrong target.

……

Huawei's CEO Ren's office.

With just one phone call from Mr. Ren, Yu Chengdong, who was holding a press conference in Shanghai that afternoon, flew back to Shenzhen that evening.

"President Ren!"

I rushed to the office, only to find that Mr. Ren was still working overtime.

He is no longer the rotating chairman, but he remains Huawei's spiritual leader and a figure with absolute authority.

When Yu Chengdong left Shanghai, he realized that President Ren had something important to discuss with him today.

Instead of discussing it at the conference, we talked to him face-to-face first.

This afternoon, after his product launch, he also watched Jiang Beicheng's interview with Luo Yonghao.

This interview was of a very high level.

It can be said that Jiangbei City has predicted the landscape of the technology industry for the next ten years.

While admiring Jiangbei City, I also paid attention to the news from the United States.

Project Stargate?

Investing 500 billion yuan in AI infrastructure sounds impressive.

The simultaneous occurrence of these two events, whether coincidental or not, is enough to draw the attention of China's AI and semiconductor industries.

Yu Chengdong guessed that what President Ren wanted to talk to him about today might be related to this matter.

President Ren gestured for Yu Chengdong to sit down, and as usual, he had a kind expression and spoke in an orderly manner, "Have you watched the interview program in Jiangbei City?"

"Hmm, perhaps President Jiang learned about Open-AI's Stargate project in advance through some channels," Yu Chengdong guessed. "It reminds me of the big commotion he made in Silicon Valley at the beginning of the year."

Mr. Ren nodded: "The AI ​​computing power competition is coming sooner than I predicted."

Maybe they just wanted to throw out a smokescreen to scare us.

However, we must treat this as a crisis.

In the afternoon, I spoke with the leaders in Beijing, and their attitude towards this matter was cautious.

I expect a major policy will be released from above in the next few days.

Yu Chengdong nodded, already feeling nervous. "President Ren, be prepared at any time."

He had become accustomed to being appointed to a critical mission.

Although everyone jokingly calls him Yu Dazui (Big Mouth Yu), Yu Dazui only fights the toughest battles.

From communications to terminals, and then to vehicles, he tackled every tough challenge.

He truly deserves the title of "King of Migrant Workers" in China.

If it weren't for shared values ​​and personal beliefs, he could easily raise a large amount of money by starting his own business with just a few PowerPoint presentations.

Huawei is now ready to tackle the tough challenge of AI, and Yu Chengdong is very excited.

Mr. Ren understands Yu Chengdong very well. It is precisely because of his keen eye and accurate judgment in choosing people that he dares to hand over the stage to others.

Fight a tough battle.

We still need Yu Dazui.

"Today I discussed with several other directors and we are preparing to have you lead Huawei IRB, responsible for key decisions on resource allocation, project initiation, and budget approval for the company's major strategic directions, to ensure that resources are efficiently focused on core strategic goals."

The core strategic goal is to overcome the technical challenges of artificial intelligence, solve the computing power problem, and strive for a leading position globally.

I will personally nominate him at the next board meeting.

Furthermore, the group has adjusted its core strategy, focusing on AI over the next decade.

Yu Chengdong listened with great enthusiasm, "President Ren, I will definitely crack this tough nut before I retire."

Mr. Ren said, "We can communicate more with Mr. Jiang privately, and at the company level, we can discuss strategic cooperation."

We desperately need this ally right now.

I believe he would feel the same way.

Yu Chengdong: "I am very much looking forward to talking with President Jiang."

Mr. Ren, Mr. Jiang mentioned you during his recent interview. What are your thoughts on him?

President Ren knew what Yu Chengdong wanted to ask.

"President Jiang represents the present, and also the future," President Ren said with a broad vision.

Yu Chengdong understood instantly.

Mr. Ren didn't care about the comparisons and discussions online, nor did he care that Jiang Beicheng was "exploiting" him in public.

Rather, it expresses respect and expectations for this young person.

……

Luo Yonghao Studio in Beijing.

"Luo Yonghao, it's a bombshell! The data for this interview is off the charts!" A colleague from the studio, who was monitoring the backend data in real time, excitedly ran into Luo Yonghao's office to report the results.

Luo Yonghao's eyes were sharp, and he remained unmoved.

When he invited Jiang Beicheng, he knew this interview would be a hit.

The traffic generated by national-level entrepreneur IPs is astounding.

After the interview, it became even more certain that this interview would become a phenomenal self-media interview program.

As expected, the number of views alone exceeded 100 million, and other data was equally astonishing.

This one video alone helped his interview account gain nearly a million followers.

Even official media outlets like CCTV reprinted and reported on it.

This achievement would excite anyone who saw it.

However, Luo Yonghao underestimated the influence of Jiangbei City. According to the information he received, the domestic business circle, especially the bosses of large factories and technology companies, had already held a meeting overnight.

I never expected such a strong reaction from the United States.

President Jiang's international influence is gradually becoming apparent.

His influence in the technology industry will continue to grow.

"Is Lao Luo unhappy with the netizens' criticism?" his colleague asked with concern when he saw that he remained unmoved.

In the previous video interview with Zhou Hongyi, Luo Yonghao was overjoyed with the small success he achieved and even treated everyone to a late-night snack. But with such great results this time, he showed no reaction at all and even looked very serious.

Luo Yonghao adjusted his glasses and said seriously, "President Jiang taught us a lesson."

His colleague looked at him with a puzzled expression.

Luo Yonghao: "Recognize your own social value!"
Suddenly, I felt that even my rough soul had been elevated.

……

Aman Nara, Bangkok.

I stayed in a deluxe suite at the hotel in Jiangbei City, took a shower, and drank a cup of coffee to refresh myself.

The video conference started promptly at 7 PM. (End of Chapter)
