What is the story about VLC, right?
Because, yes, this is true.
I refuse...
Dozens of millions of dollars.
Yes, several times.
Yes, I could be a multimillionaire and be somewhere on the beach.
But I did not do it because I thought it was not moral and it was not the right thing to do.
And this is very important for myself is to be like I work for the greater good.
I work for people and I don't want it's not just by myself.
But the reason is also because I did not feel that I'm completely legitimate to do that.
And let me explain you why.
VLT story is a very weird story.
In France, we have university and we have a type of top colleges.
And those top of excellency schools are engineering school, business schools, and basically lawyers and medical, right?
But they're outside of university.
And in order to enter those, you spend two years working like crazy mass physics to enter those best engineering school.
One of the schools is called the Ecole Centrale Paris.
It has changed name since, but it was called the Ecole Centrale Paris.
And because it was central, they had to move it because it was too small after the World War II.
And they moved it, they wanted to move it to the central of France in a place called Clermont-Ferrand.
