As the fifth-generation leader of Philips Group, a Fortune 500 company and a top 100 company, Yang Timmer's ability is of course undoubted, although he didn't react at first, but looking at Halber Jestesla's eyes glancing at Chen Geng, he reacted immediately, and then applauded in his heart: What a trick!

For the Philips Group, many people are familiar with them, and they can say one or two, three or four about Philips casually, such as the famous Polygram Records is a subsidiary of the Philips Group, such as NXP, which was separated from the Philips Semiconductor Division, such as ASML, which was separated from the Philips Semiconductor Division and monopolized the market in the field of lithography machines, such as the relationship between CD records and the Philips Group......

But few people know that in addition to the Philips family, the Dutch royal family also holds shares in the Philips Group, and the full name of the Philips Group is also called "Royal Dutch Philips", why Arthur del Prado was able to "persuade Philips senior management through unremitting efforts to let Philips Semiconductor Division cooperate with ASMI" despite the opposition of Halber Jestesla, the head of Philips' semiconductor division, and even Philips global CEO Jan Timmer" It's a big deal."

No way, who made Arthur del Prado a distant relative of the Dutch royal family, otherwise how could he Arthur del Prado.

But what makes Jan Timmer feel very depressed is that just a dozen seconds ago, he threw away the biggest card in his hand, making it clear that the Philips Group is not interested in semiconductor front-end production equipment......

Jan Timmer has a very doggy feeling in his heart.

While Jan Timmer was pondering how to find an excuse, the anxious Arthur del Prado himself sent the excuse to Jan Timmer......

Seeing that Jan Timmer seemed to refuse to give himself a chance, Arthur del Prado was anxious: "Mr. Timmer, please listen to me, this is the case, we at ASMI have decided to abandon the traditional mercury light source and develop deep ultraviolet lithography equipment with excimer laser as the light source instead......"

Here's your chance!

Jan Timmer didn't care what Arthur del Prado said, all he cared about was whether Arthur could provide himself with a good enough excuse to push Fernandez Chan, and as for what that excuse was, did it matter?

"Huh?" Jan Timmer raised an eyebrow, "You're going to abandon the backward mercury light source?"

"Yes," although I don't know why Jan Timmer is suddenly interested in himself, but it doesn't matter, the point is that Jan Timmer is interested, Arthur del Prado was shocked, and hurriedly explained to Jan Timmer: "Just a few months ago, Dr. Gandy Jayne of IBM put forward the pioneering concept of excimer laser lithography, and demonstrated, compared with the traditional mercury light source, the lithography equipment with excimer laser as the light source has better processing accuracy, Gandy J. Jain Bosch mentions the ability of deep ultraviolet lithography equipment to process chips from 500 nanometers to only below 100 nanometers.

After Dr. Gandy Jain proposed the concept of excimer laser lithography, Lambda Physik and Lumonic, well-known manufacturers of light sources for lithography equipment, also issued statements saying that they would develop excimer laser light sources......"

Speaking of this, Arthur del Prado looked at Jan Timmer with an eager face and said excitedly: "Mr. Timmer, this is a great opportunity! Please believe me, whether Philips Semiconductors can rise again depends on whether it can seize the opportunity this time." ”

"This ......"

Jan Timmer seemed a little hesitant, he looked at Halber Jestesla, and asked, "Halber, have you heard of this excimer laser lithography concept that Mr. Arthur said?"

As the global CEO of the entire Philips Group, it is normal that Jan Timmer has not heard of Dr. Gandy Jain's concept of "excimer laser lithography", after all, he is going to manage the business and not semiconductor technology, but as the head of Philips's semiconductor division, if Halber Jestesle does not know this, it is a bit of a stretch.

Halber Jestesla's brow furrowed: "This...... I've heard about it, but I don't know it very carefully, you know, the group has decided to give up this business......"

"That's right," Yang Timmer's brows furrowed even tighter, and his lips moved, as if he had something to say, but considering that there was still Chen Geng, an outsider, present, he still didn't say anything after all, but nodded, and suddenly looked at Chen Geng: "Mr. Fernandez, are you interested in investing in semiconductor technology?"

"Huh?"

Hearing Yang Timmer's words, Chen Geng was stunned.

"The reason why IBM can be called the 'blue giant' is inseparable from their investment in semiconductor technology, your United Data Company wants to become bigger and stronger, and it is inevitable that it will have to work semiconductor technology in the future......

Mr. Arthur, let me introduce you to Mr. Fernandez Chen, the owner of AMC Motors and United Data, the richest super-diamond king in the United States, and Mr. Fernandez's thinkcenter series of computers has become the world's best-selling microcomputer in North America, beating IBM and Apple.

At the same time, they are also the world's largest developer of general-purpose software for microcomputers, and their ord, Excel, access and other software firmly occupy more than 90% of the market share......"

Chen Geng didn't expect that when he was thinking about how to not break in but see if he could invest in ASMI, Yang Timmer actually took the initiative to introduce ASMI to himself, and tried his best to encourage himself to invest in ASMI.

As for Arthur del Prado, his eyes were straight.

No wonder his eyes were straight, he had received the news from Halber Jestesla, that today Mr. Jan Timmer, the global CEO of Philips Group, was going to personally accompany a VIP from the United States to visit the semiconductor division, which was a great opportunity for him to convince Mr. Jan Timmer.

Arthur del Prado also felt that this was a great opportunity, but what he didn't expect was that this VIP from the United States would be so big, the boss of AMC and the boss of United Data Corporation...... Could it be a little more scary?

Listening to Mr. Jan Timmer's tireless promotion of himself to Mr. Fernández Chen, Arthur del Prado was also very moved: there is no doubt that the United States is the center of gravity of semiconductor technology, and if ASMI can cooperate with the famous United Data Company, it is obviously much better than cooperating with Philips Semiconductor Division.

Chen Geng, who reacted, looked at Yang Timmer with a funny face: "Mr. Timmer, you mean to suggest that I invest in Mr. Hammer's company?"

"Yes," although Jan Timmer also felt that he was not very authentic in this matter, but it was still the same sentence, dead friends are not dead and poor, in order to be able to smoothly throw out this hot potato, Jan Timmer bragged that ASMI Company didn't even want to be cheeky: "Mr. Fernandez, although ASMI's strength is not top-notch, they have a very good technical research and development team......"

"Since ASMI is so powerful, then why don't you want to cooperate with Mr. Arthur?" As the saying goes, hitting people doesn't hit their faces, but Chen Geng is good, hitting people only in the face.

Yang Timmer was a little embarrassed, but in order to be able to throw this trouble to Chen Geng, he didn't even want to face, after a little embarrassment, he was very embarrassed and said: "The main thing is that the market competition in the semiconductor front-end equipment is too fierce, there are more than 30 companies around the world, and Philips is under great pressure and is ready to give up this business, so ......"

The implication is not that we don't have confidence in ASMI, it's that we are under too much pressure and are ready to give up this part of the business.

Chen Geng smiled, although he knew very well that Yang Timmer was talking nonsense, but since he was really excited, he didn't care about himself, who wouldn't pretend to be confused. Under the nervous gaze of Jan Timmer, Halber Jestesla, and Arthur del Prado, Chen Geng pondered for a moment, and finally spoke: "Mr. Kiridale of United Data Corporation did kick me the idea of entering semiconductor production, but I haven't made up my mind about doing so yet......

So, Mr. Arthur, if you are interested in cooperating with me, you can first compile a copy of the relevant information of your ASMI company, your vision of the cooperation between the two sides, etc., and send it to me, and I will understand the situation before making a decision, okay?"

"Of course, of course," Arthur del Prado, who had the feeling of choosing a lottery ticket with his mobile phone and accidentally winning the jackpot, nodded excitedly and kept assuring Chen Geng: "Mr. Fernandez, please rest assured, I will sort out the information and send it to you when I go back!"

Although Arthur del Prado had always wanted to cooperate with Philips Semiconductor Division, when Chen Geng appeared, Arthur del Prado decisively kicked Philips aside: Compared with the backward and weak European semiconductor market, the United States is the future of ASMI!

Take a look at the famous names, IBM, Texas Instruments, Motorola, Intel, AMD, DEC...... Can Europe find anything comparable to these names that shine like stars in the sky?

No!

Not a single one!

To be able to cooperate with American companies and enter the American market smoothly, it is a fool to cooperate with Philips!

Although Chen Geng still has a proud face, a diaotic appearance of "not all cats and dogs are qualified to cooperate with Lao Tzu", but Arthur del Prado has already empathized with him, and a "heart" has been firmly tied to Chen Geng's body.
