Not long after Chen Yao left, Principal Liu Wendong rushed over and walked into the laboratory.
"Old Zhong, did he really write that thesis?”
The principal had read those theses before. The quality was really high.
If Chen Yao was really Mr. A, then he was very likely to be the most outstanding talent in the school's 100-year history.
" Principal Liu," Zhong Guoqiang said," from today onwards, you have to get to know him all over again. He is much more outstanding than you think!"”
……
After Chen Yao hung up the phone, he walked toward the university's media room.
Cai Feifei quickly caught up with him in her high heels."Student, your company is going to be funded?”
Chen Yao changed so quickly that Cai Feifei could not recognize him anymore.
" Yes," Chen Yao nodded as he walked quickly." A round of financing."”
The two of them talked as they walked and soon arrived outside the meeting room.
At this moment, luxury cars were parked outside the building.
Bentley, Lamborghini, Ferrari, Bugatti Veyron worth tens of millions…
It attracted the attention of many students.
"What background? What an imposing manner."
"I heard that the big boss of the capital investment bank is here.”
"Which company wants to raise funds?”
The car door opened. Li Zhiming, who was wearing a suit, got out of the car and walked toward Chen Yao.""President Chen, they're all here."
In an instant, everyone's eyes were on Chen Yao.
" Who's involved in the financing?" Chen Yao asked.”
Li Zhiming looked at the document in his hand and said,""Penguin, Ali, and Lushan Capital in China. Overseas, there were also companies such as Google, Google, Facebook, and even the company's private capital.”
The students 'eyes lit up as if they had seen a mountain of gold!
These top capital giants were all here to give Chen Yao money!
Chen Yao's company was so awesome that it could attract so many big shots to invest?
The doors of the luxury cars opened, and the tycoons in suits and leather shoes got out of the cars one by one.
Chen Yao walked over and shook hands with them.
Then, he led them into the conference room to negotiate.
Cai Feifei was stunned and quickly followed Chen Yao into the room.
Although her family background was not bad and she was a typical white, rich, and beautiful woman, this was the first time she had seen such a capital operation that easily cost one or two billion yuan.
This was a world of capital. Without capital, nothing could be done.
After entering the room, Li Zhiming invited them to sit down one by one.
Most of these big shots were representatives sent by the head office.
From Chen Yao's point of view, he did not reject financing. Although it would reduce his equity ratio, start-ups needed money too much.
As long as the valuation they gave was high enough, it was acceptable for him to keep enough shares.
Chen Yao would never compromise with the capital if they were to open their mouths wide.
At an oval table, he sat down with the representatives of the capital giants.
Li Zhiming placed a document in front of them, on which was written the basic situation of the legendary track.
Legendary Trajectory was very inexperienced. It had been established less than half a year ago, and the company license had only been obtained yesterday.
It was very risky to invest in such a start-up company, but the capitalists knew very well that once this company grew, it was likely to be the next Ali Baba.
In 2000, Nippon's Soft Bank invested in the company, and in 2014, it was listed in New York. Its value had increased by 2900 times!
This was simply an explosive investment!
Chen Yao glanced around and said with a smile,"" I believe that before you came here, you should have understood the strength of the Legendary Trajectory in terms of artificial intelligence.”
"Yes, Legend is at the forefront of the AI voice technology industry. This is also why we value your company's potential.”
The person who spoke was a man with a hooked nose in a white suit. He was a representative sent by the goldman sachs, and his name was Evans Norka.
" Let's get straight to the point," Chen Yao said quickly." What's your valuation of the legendary track?"”
Regardless of whether the financing was successful or not, he had to at least see how much the company he founded was worth.
Evans held up five fingers.”
Cai Feifei stuck out her tongue. A company that had only been founded for a few months was already worth 500 million yuan. The capital was really crazy.
However, Chen Yao was not happy at all. The valuation was too low and could not meet the standard of a unicorn.
It seemed like it was time to tell a story.
One had to know how to tell a story when starting a business.
It was very important to know how to tell a story. It was better to tell it well than to do it well. After all, no one could be sure of the future. A founder who could tell a good story could bring a large wave of investment to the company.
To put it bluntly, he was bragging!
It was just like a shared bicycle. It was clearly a bicycle rental, but he had to put on a gorgeous sharing coat and tell a good story about the "sharing economy". The capitalists were stunned when they heard it.
In the future, whether he would brag or turn his awesomeness into reality would really depend on his strength.
Of course, capitalists were not stupid at all. It was not so easy to fool them if they wanted to get money.
Chen Yao stood up, opened his laptop, and said,""I wonder if everyone has seen the Dark Horse dubbing software that I demonstrated at the World Artificial Intelligence Conference last time?”
"I have." Evans nodded." It was because of that time that I decided to invest in your company."”
" There's one thing that you've all overlooked," Chen Yao said seriously." The most powerful thing behind Black Horse's voice acting is not its voice recognition technology, but…"
"Its image recognition!"
To the surprise of all the investors, they looked at each other and really did not notice.
There were two main areas of artificial intelligence. One was AI voice, which allowed machines to speak like humans, full of emotions.
The second was intelligent vision, which allowed robots to recognize objects like humans and understand the content in pictures and videos.
Compared to AI voice, AI vision was more widely used and had higher commercial value.
For example, Face Recognition, automatic security, medical imaging, video review, and so on...
Smart cameras allowed robots to truly have a pair of " eyes " that could understand objects. The commercial prospects were amazing.
The main business of the four AI dragons that were sought after by the capital in China was in the visual field.
Chen Yao looked at the investor and said," It's an animated film. If you want to complete the dubbing, it's not just the dialogue. There were also live sound effects. If the software wanted to automatically add sound to the animation, it had to have a strong visual recognition ability.”
It was not difficult to understand. The cartoon itself was silent. The cartoon characters, walking, eating, fighting, and the gunshots had to be added to the sound effects in the post-production.
This meant that the software had to have very powerful image recognition technology to know when to add sound effects.
Chen Yao demonstrated and did the post-production dubbing for the cartoon.
In just five minutes, the entire animated film had completed the dubbing of all the dialogue, and the sound effects of the scenes were added just right.
Instantly, all the investors 'eyes lit up!
Legendary Trajectory had not only mastered the most advanced voice technology, but also the most powerful image recognition.
His company's valuation could at least double!
