David said in an affirmative tone: "Of course, as long as this money enters the United States, it will definitely not escape the eyes, or nose, of the tax bureau... To be honest, their noses are sharper than dogs. And you are now a professor at Princeton, I I guess you must have changed your visa type.”
If that were the case, his legend would at best remain on Wall Street and become one of the chicken soups that motivate fund men.
At the official party held by MRS, David, who was sitting across from him, was chatting with Lu Zhou.
Through his own large-scale parallel computing high-frequency trading model, David sheared US$4.1 billion in the capital market and entered the top 500 of the global wealth list.
With a sure expression on his face, David poured himself a glass of red wine and said slowly: "If I were you, I should consider the tax issue at this time."
However, just when he had reached the peak of his life, he suddenly had an epiphany.
It’s not that learning creates a sense of mission.
Lu Zhou nodded seriously.
At the peak of his life, this talented man suddenly made a comeback, took off his suit, and returned to academia.
"It's easy. You can just open an account on a small island. Of course, my suggestion is that you can set up a patent management company directly in the Cayman Islands and spend a little interest on the bank account to hire a few accountants. Microsoft and IBM That’s how the income from dealing with intellectual property is done, and there are many firms on Wall Street that handle this type of case.”
He doesn't need to rely on gimmicks to get funds, so he speaks more directly.
All right.
Lu Zhou frowned slightly: "Do you still need to pay taxes?"
After chatting with Mr. Lu, Lu Zhou suddenly found that he had been having trouble calming down, but he seemed to have adjusted himself unknowingly.
When he heard about supercomputers, Lu Zhou's heart moved slightly and he said, "Actually, I have always been interested in supercomputers and even planned to buy one myself."
"I'm really interested," Lu Zhou said with a smile. "If you have more specific ideas, you can come to see me at Princeton."
Moreover, Mr. Lu certainly cannot just listen to his words, but must also integrate the experience of many experts. When it comes to specific production, performance, safety and other issues, engineers in the battery field have more say.
David Shaw was no exception. After sitting on the bench as a professor for several years, he finally couldn't sit still anymore and entered the big dyeing vat of Wall Street.
Regarding the blueprint he drew, Lu Zhou joked with a smile: "And wait 100 years later, a group of young men will complain to the textbooks, saying, what the hell is this guy writing?"
If a normal man stayed in such an environment, his mentality would change.
Although most people who refer to themselves as geniuses will be regarded as a sign of narcissism, perhaps it is because he has been on Wall Street for a long time. When this man said this sentence, it was as natural as breathing. It didn't even make people feel inconsistent.
Everyone thought that he might end up like those professors who couldn't bear loneliness, drowning silently in this big dye vat.
He became a professor at Columbia University before he was 30 years old, and as a top expert in ultra-large-scale parallel computing, he is already well-known in the academic world.
However, Columbia University is located in New York, and there are business elites everywhere, making tens of millions of dollars a minute, living a life of debauchery, luxury cars, and beautiful women...
emmm…
Indeed, his annual salary as a mathematics professor is subject to tax. It's just that the 400,000 yuan offered to him by Princeton is an after-tax annual salary, so he has never paid attention to this aspect.
This is a great opportunity to get exposed to the cutting edge of research, and anyone who plans to make a difference in this field should not miss this opportunity.
To the entire world, what he did may only be a small amount of work, but the changes he brought about can be seen with the naked eye.
…
Then, the famous supercomputer Anton, the "Star Destroyer" in the world of molecular dynamics, was born.
In comparison, the shock brought by 400 million does not seem so exciting...
"As long as the flow of funds occurs in accounts between offshore companies, the money has never entered the United States and has never been actually operated here, and the federal tax bureau will not be able to deal with you."
Yes, this guy suddenly discovered that this kind of life is not what he really wants!
Lu Zhou asked: "Is there a way to avoid it?"
"... You are a genius in mathematics, and I am a genius in large-scale parallel computing. We can definitely join forces to build a new framework for the entire computational chemistry. Think about it, 100 years later, when people talk about computational chemistry, Our two names will come to mind, and we will become the founders of this discipline!"
And his epiphany was not just talked about like a certain mountain village teacher.
For him who is no longer short of money, he will no longer have to kneel down to NIH and NSF officials to beg for meager funds. He will spend money wherever there is a shortage of money, and he does not care about business outside of academia. prospect.
This person is the legendary David Shaw (DEShaw) - when talking about computational chemistry, it is difficult not to mention this name.
Can’t you do computational chemistry without supercomputing
The group of people continued to eat, and then basically chatted about life and home affairs.
Rent one? Buy one
"No problem," David grinned. "If you discover any interesting mathematical models while doing polymer experiments that require the use of supercomputing, you can also come to New York to see me."
Lu Zhou: "I signed the letter of intent, what happened?"
The rise and fall of an enterprise, a country's development strategy, and even the future of the world are all subtly affected by his papers.
It doesn’t even require an essay.
At the conference, he also met many interesting people, especially an outstanding person whose life was full of legends.
After listening to Lu Zhou's words, Lu Kaimin thought for a while.
"Yes, that's what it feels like," David snapped his fingers and said with a laugh, "How about it, are you interested?"
The next day, the MRS meeting continued. Lu Zhou paid attention to many interesting reports.
Out of responsibility, he put forward his opinions. As for whether to refer to them or not, that was not his business.
"This is a good idea, but the cost of that thing is not a small amount of money," David suddenly thought of something and continued, "By the way, have you signed the patent licensing agreement reached with Umicore?"
However, the final result surprised everyone. In less than ten years, his name became a legend on Wall Street.
Lu Zhou nodded and did not continue speaking.
It is no exaggeration to say that he only needs to move his fingers and shout "Lithium-air battery is good" on his scarf, and a batch of scientific research funds will pour into this direction tomorrow, and the stock price of PPT companies with related concepts cannot be predicted. It can still rise a lot... Of course, if you do this, you will definitely be scolded by people who really understand.
To be honest, I wouldn’t even dare to write this in a novel.
Except for the two old guys, Mr. Lu and Dean Li, who used the tone of the elders to tease the younger ones, they frantically tested "whether there is a partner" and "domestic or foreign ones", there were no serious topics discussed.
"Thank you for your valuable advice, we will take it seriously."
And it’s not just about communicating academic issues.
After a moment, he said.
Even if there is, only a little bit.
David smiled confidently.
Rather, he suddenly discovered that, at some point, it was not just academic scholars who listened attentively to his report, but his opinions also extended beyond the academic circle.
No, he built one himself!
It was obvious that at this time, he had gotten everything he wanted but couldn't get.
