Chapter 2196 is a spare tire

Mustafa Suleiman is the most mysterious of the three founders of deepmind. He and Hassabis met in middle school. At that time, they discussed together how to make humans

Life is better.

However, when the two of them succeeded in their studies, Hassabis really devoted themselves to the work of changing human beings. Suleiman went to the financial industry for several years until he met Hassabis again in 2010 and learned that his old classmate was

When I was preparing a company that studied artificial intelligence, I remembered the ideals of the past again.

Suleiman's joining is the key to deepmind's successful investment. He is the person with the most financial concept among the three founders and the real manager of the company, responsible for internal employee management and external public relations financing.

Deepmind won Thiel's investment and participated in the acquisition of Professor Hinton's team, Suleiman was the plenipotentiary negotiator.

When Li Rui came to deepmind the previous few times, Suleiman did not appear. This detail that he didn't care about at that time is quite meaningful when he recalled it now.

Through Professor Hinton's relationship, Li Rui and Dalula met Suleiman at a cafe near Russell Square.

Suleiman has a typical Middle Eastern face. When he saw Li Rui and Sington, he greeted him very enthusiastically and kissed Dalula. He looked like an old friend he hadn't seen for many years.

.

"Ms. Riley, we haven't seen each other for two years, right?" Suleiman said, "The last time I was in Thiel's villa, you are still so beautiful. When I first saw you, it was like I saw you in the early morning.

The first ray of sunshine, the shocking feeling will never be forgotten for life!”

Li Rui was stunned.

I'm going, buddy has practiced it?

Dalula said happily: "Thank you for your praise! The words you convinced Til also left a deep impression on me."

Suleiman said: "Thank you for remembering what you said two years ago. Since you can see you here, it proves that the words I said were not a fraud, right?"

Dalula smiled and said, "Of course not. You are on the road to realizing your dreams and are doing well!"

Listening to the conversation between the two, Li Rui could almost tell that compared to the engineer's personalities of Hassabis and Legge, Suleiman is more like an investor on Wall Street, clever, greedy and cunning.

Li Rui likes to deal with greedy people, and greed will have weaknesses.

On the contrary, idealists like the two founders of whatsapp, stubborn as the stones in the pit, smelly and hard, making him have nowhere to use even if he is powerful.

Since Hinton could not sit down, the four of them simply held their coffee and stood at the bar and started chatting directly.

Suleiman said: "Professor Hinton, Ms. Riley, Mr. Lee, since I have other businesses, I am not in London before, I am very sorry that I was unable to receive you at deepmind before."

Dalula did not expose his lies and said with a smile: "Of course we can understand. I heard that you are responsible for a lot of work in deepmind, and you must be very, very busy recently."

Suleiman said: "Thank you for your understanding. I'm really busy lately..."

Dalula said directly: "Are you busy talking to people from Google and Facebook about the acquisition?"

Suleiman was stunned for a moment.

Dalula said mysteriously: "Although Elon and I divorce, he will also reveal something to me."

This is an absolute lie, and Elon didn't even know that Dalula was planning to acquire the deepmind he invested in.

Suleiman certainly didn't know that this was a lie, nor did he read "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". He didn't know the famous saying that Zhang Wuji's mother said: You can't believe the words of a beautiful woman, and the first ray of sunshine in the morning will also deceive people.

!

Suleiman was a little surprised. Obviously he didn't expect Dalula to be so direct. This made the hypocritical and polite words he had practiced on Wall Street useless. He could only say in panic: "Uh... deepmind is indeed

I received an offer from Google and Facebook, but I can guarantee that your three companies are still on the same starting line, and deepmind will treat every bidder fairly."

Is what Li Rui wants fair?

Fairness protects the weak, while Li Rui wants unfairness.

Since he already knew what kind of person Suleiman was, Li Rui didn't want to waste time with him, so he simply said straightforwardly: "Mr. Suleiman, I want to know the conditions given by Google and Facebook."

Suleiman said in surprise: "Lee, this is a trade secret, I can't tell you."

"Okay, then can I think that the conditions given by Google and Facebook are very serious, so you are so hesitant?" Li Rui changed his way of asking questions.

Suleiman's face changed slightly, and hesitated and didn't know how to answer. In fact, he didn't need to answer. This reaction has proved that Li Rui guessed correctly.

Although r incubator has risen very quickly, it only took less than a year to gain fame in Silicon Valley and invested in many emerging Internet companies, but it is still far from Google and Facebook.

In particular, Google and Facebook have very large scientific research and industrial resources, which is a huge temptation for any company, and this temptation is currently unavailable for R incubator.

Under the same conditions, the r incubator is definitely the first to be eliminated, so there is no need to question this.

Since deepmind has been in a long-term hesitation and has been unable to make a choice between R incubator and Facebook, it must be that there are some unbearable problems among the conditions raised by the latter two.

This judgment does not come from memories of the previous life, but from a logical judgment that naturally arises after being reborn after contacting too many companies and people. Li Rui is very happy about this because he can feel that he is not a light

We do things through the experience and memories we gain from rebirth, but we have grown up in real life.

It's like a person often uses plug-ins to play games without any disadvantages, but he also needs to hone his skills. When one day he can defeat his opponent by turning off plug-ins, it is a completely different sense of accomplishment.

Suleiman spread his hands and put on a helpless attitude and said, "It seems that Elon has said everything, so I don't need to hide it... The acquisition offer given by Google and Facebook is very attractive and our first choice.

And second choice, r incubator can only rank third."

Both Dalula and Sinton's faces looked a little bad. Even the most cultivated people heard that they were just spare tires and would not be in a good mood.

Li Rui disagreed.

What's wrong with the spare tire?
