Chapter 352 Donate 11 million pounds to his alma mater!
As an established empire, the Sun Never Sets is particularly strong in science and engineering.
In terms of computers, a genius like Turing was born, but he was forced to commit suicide.
Yang Ming is not just as simple as making the other party famous and popular.
However, he felt that this matter must be somewhat difficult.
Turing is definitely not wrong about this kind of thing, but who is wrong?
Someone should stand up and admit it.
Arya has determined that Mr. Yang brought up these two things.
For the alma mater, either choose Mr. Yang’s donation of 1 million pounds, or, as Mr. Yang said, establish the Turing Institute in Turing’s name and receive another 10 million pounds in donations.
From a capitalist's perspective, this is a tenfold difference.
Don't say two things?
Even if it is ten things, or even a hundred things, as long as it can be done, Argyle will agree.
Grosvenor House Hotel.
This amount of money is even the largest donation to Brunel University in recent decades.
This time he came here because he and Yang Ming were going to Buckingham Palace to meet the Queen.
In fact, Turing did not come from their university, but from Cambridge University or even Princeton University. Because of that incident, no one now recognizes his identity.
"Are you sure it's really Turing?"
He quickly thought again.
10 million pounds is very valuable. This money can be used to establish a small college. Now Mr. Yang's request is to establish a new college in the name of Turing.
What is this for?
If there was no such thing, of course they would agree directly.
Brunel University can only be said to be a moderately prestigious university in Country Y, and has produced some celebrities. However, Mr. Yang's popularity is also very high now.
"No, it's after Mr. Turing."
One sum was £10 million.
Brunel University is a public university, not a private university. If it is a private university, there is no need to consider these things.
...
Named after a person?
Is it okay for ten people?
"Is it after Mr. Yang's own name?"
So what if it was Turing?
If Mr. Yang wants a master's degree or even a doctorate, Brunel University can satisfy him, because Mr. Yang's series of business successes in Hong Kong are indeed enough to show that he has already graduated.
"I saw him. Mr. Yang was very polite to me. However, he asked two things."
That afternoon.
Shen Bi is here now.
"Our school attaches great importance to Mr. Yang's visit to his alma mater and his participation in the university's graduation ceremony. In addition, Mr. Yang has proposed two donations to his alma mater."
Return to Brunel University to meet the principal, Mr. Argyle.
Even if it's a bachelor's degree, it's a first-class honors degree.
"The first thing is that Mr. Yang said that he could donate 1 million pounds to his alma mater."
£10 million?
The principal thought he heard wrongly.
It's certainly not difficult.
In addition to Keira, Arya, secretary to the president of Brunel University, and even Shen Bi came to see him in person.
In other words, this 10 million pounds is not so easy to get.
"Does Mr. Yang have any other requirements? For example, we can directly award him a doctorate!"
"Yes, Mr. Yang made it very clear to me. He said that Turing will be the pride of the people of country Y."
Donate £1 million?
In this day and age, this is indeed a lot of money.
As for the establishment of Turing College at the university, he would have to discuss it with the school leaders and even the school board of directors.
"No, Mr. Yang said, just give him a bachelor's degree certificate. Now that he is successful in business, it means that he has successfully graduated."
"Secretary Arya, I wonder if you should name it after someone else?"
At this time, the principal asked secretary Arya to speak out.
However, because of Turing's reputation, it is a bit difficult.
It has been 25 years since Turing left this world. In country Y, this is like a scar. No one is willing to bring it up, and no one is willing to admit the mistakes in it.
This is not 10 million Hong Kong dollars, but 10 million pounds, which is much more valuable than 10 million US dollars, and is ten times the first donation.
One sum is £1 million.
In the conference room of Brunel University, President Argyle and the school leaders and school board members discussed Mr. Yang’s upcoming visit to his alma mater to attend the graduation ceremony.
The expressions of the school leaders and school board members sitting there immediately changed.
The more the merrier, and he doesn’t want too much.
Isn’t it just named after a college?
Now, Mr. Yang actually wants to establish the Turing Institute at Brunel University.
Mr. Turing?
Bachelor's degree?
Especially Cambridge University, as one of the two most famous universities in country Y, has too many celebrities. At this time, Turing was just an ordinary celebrity in the eyes of Cambridge University.
So that means you must do what Mr. Yang said.
Mr. Yang is willing to donate 11 million pounds to his alma mater. He feels that Mr. Yang is really generous and supports the education of his alma mater.
Brunel University still takes this matter very seriously.
When he saw the secretary coming back, Argyle asked: "Alya, have you seen Mr. Yang?"
Yang Ming did not leave the hotel, he remained in the hotel's luxury suite.
At this time, the principal needs to think carefully.
Arya leaves Grosvenor House Hotel.
"The second thing is that Mr. Yang said that if his alma mater is willing to establish a new college in the name of a person, he is willing to donate another 10 million pounds."
Then it's really difficult.
Shen Bi has a much wider network of connections than Keira. He is originally the second-largest figure in the royal family and the cabinet in Hong Kong. In addition, his identity is also the current chief executive of Huifeng Bank.
Moreover, this matter is a bit troublesome to deal with, and it requires at least the support of the cabinet and even the royal family.
Arya said these two things, that is, two different donations.
Mr. Yang's identity is different. His classmates, who were in the same class as him or even in the same class, graduated and left school three years ago.
This time, considering that Mr. Yang is willing to donate so much money to his alma mater and that Mr. Yang has such great influence, this graduation ceremony will naturally be very grand.
"I asked Mr. Yang, and Mr. Yang said it should be named after Mr. Turing."
Faced with the temptation of 10 million pounds, no school leader or school board member can refuse.
Yang Ming wanted to meet the queen for the first time before her birthday.
Because no one wants to admit that they slandered and drove a computer genius to death.
In addition, they need permission from the cabinet and the royal family.
This makes Principal Argyle very happy. There is indeed a difference between famous people and rich people in the school. If you even invite the rich back, you can get large donations.
The principal suddenly reacted.
The Queen's real birthday was the second time we met.
Now, Shen Bi heard that Mr. Yang actually wanted to replace Turing Yang Ming, which made Shen Bi really surprised.
Regarding Turing, many people in country Y know it, but many people now may not realize the importance of computers and artificial intelligence in the future.
