Recently, Zhengzhou Sias College, the alma mater of Wang Ning, the founder of Bubble Mart, issued a document announcing that three post-00s alumni of the school donated 2 billion tokens to their alma mater to support juniors and juniors to start up "one-person companies".
After the incident was spread on social platforms, it unexpectedly triggered a large number of discussions among netizens. Some netizens questioned that the actual value of 2 billion Tokens may be worth a few hundred yuan, bluntly saying that the principal was "fooled", and some netizens said that the value is even cheaper than the donated display signs.
Another netizen said that he can consume 50 million to 100 million Tokens in one day at work. "Three people can use it casually in one day and it will be gone."
But some netizens hold different views. Some netizens said, "Tokens from their own companies are not that cheap, and they are available for about 50,000 to 60,000 yuan. However, donating 50,000 to 600,000 yuan to the university is probably not going to be a big deal, so the principal did not understand that he was fooled." He believed that even if calculated based on the internal cost, it was tens of thousands of yuan, but it was made to look cheap by the specifications of the ceremony.
Another netizen mentioned that "If it is Gemini Pro or GPT, it seems to be quite valuable", pointing out that if the underlying model is a high-end overseas model, the value of 2 billion Tokens will increase significantly.
According to media reports, based on the pricing of different large models at home and abroad, the value range of 2 billion Tokens is approximately between 5,000 yuan and 250,000 yuan; if high cache hit rate optimization is taken into account, the cost can be further reduced to a range of hundreds to thousands of yuan. Overall, the actual value corresponding to 2 billion Tokens may indeed not be considered a high donation.
