This trip to Philips made Chen Geng very satisfied, and he felt that he had gained a lot, but before leaving, there was still a little accident......

"Mr. Timmer, Mr. Timmer......"

Just as Jan Timmer and Halber Zigestra were sending Chen Geng to the car, a fat man suddenly jumped down from a car and was extremely agile to avoid the interception of several peripheral security personnel, but fortunately, the inner security personnel reacted very quickly, and the fat man was stopped when he was still five or six meters away from him.

Even when he was stopped, the fat man did not stop, and shouted to Jan Timmer as he struggled: "Mr. Timmer, Mr. Timmer, can you give me ten minutes, please give me ten minutes, I only need ten minutes......

Jan Timmer's face instantly darkened.

And Halber Jestesla, on the other hand, was full of embarrassment.

Chen Geng looked at the dark-faced Yang Timmer, and then looked at the embarrassed Halber Even Tesla, not only a little puzzled in his heart: Yang Timmer's face is not good-looking, but it is understandable, who made today's security work arranged by Philips, there was such a small accident, which not only shows that the security work is not in place and unprofessional, but also shows that Philips is stingy, and even a serious security company is reluctant to invite, but what is the embarrassment of Halber Jess Tesla? Well, this ASMI company sounds quite similar to ASML's name......

At this time, the fat man who was controlled by the inner security personnel was still struggling, probably thinking that this was not enough, he turned his head to look at Halber Jestesla, and shouted loudly: "Mr. Jestesla! Mr. Jestestes, I'm Arthur of ASMI, I'm Arthur......"

Chen Geng finally knew why Halber Jestesla's expression was embarrassed just now, it turned out that the root was here: this Arthur was obviously an acquaintance of Halber Jestesla, and if nothing else, the relationship between the two might be quite good......

Jan Timmer obviously realized this, he glared at Halber Jestesla, and gave the "CEO's warning" of "After sending Fernandez Chen away, Lao Tzu will come to you to settle accounts!", and said to Chen Geng very embarrassedly: "Mr. Fernandez, I'm very sorry that our security work has made such a big mistake, please rest assured, we will ask this gentleman to leave immediately...... Mr. Harber, you're going to give me an explanation when you come back......"

"It's okay," Chen Geng waved his hand to show that he didn't mind: "Since that Mr. Arthur is a friend of Mr. Jestesla, then invite him over, it can be seen that this Mr. Arthur really has a very important matter to find you." ”

"This ......"

Jan Timmer first glared at Halber Jestesla, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded: "OK, okay, let him come over." ”

At the same time as saying this, Jan Timmer's heart had already made up his mind, no matter what this Arthur found himself for, but since this bastard made such a big mess today, if Fernández Chen really didn't mind, it would be fine, but if he minded, this damn fat man would definitely die.

"Mr. Timmer, thank you very much for giving me this opportunity, thank you very much," the fat man, who was brought over after being strictly checked from head to toe by the security personnel to make sure that he was not carrying any dangerous items on him, nodded and introduced himself to Jan Timmer: "Hello, I am Arthur del Prado ...... ASMI"

"ASMI Company?" Chen Geng frowned: "Mr. Arthur, what is the full name of your company, and what business is your company engaged in?"

Arthur del Prado secretly scolded Chen Geng in his heart.

He didn't even dare to show any unhappiness on his face, because he knew very well in his heart that the reason why he had this opportunity to communicate directly with Mr. Jan Timmer today was, in the final analysis, thanks to Fernandez Chen, a big local money from the United States - yes, Arthur del Prado was able to appear here, and Halber Jestesla, the head of the semiconductor division of the Royal Dutch Philips Group, "contributed a lot".

"Sir, my company's name is Advanced Semiconductor Materials International, abbreviated as ASML," Arthur del Prado said to Chen Geng with a smile on his face: "Our company is engaged in semiconductor chip packaging equipment and PECVD equipment. ”

To put it mildly, those who can do semiconductors naturally look down on those who make "stupid big black and coarse" cars, Arthur del Prado doesn't think that the big man from the United States knows what PECVD equipment is.

"Plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition equipment?" Chen Geng's brows furrowed, and he had a faint hunch: "You are an agent?"

"No, no, no," Arthur del Prado hurriedly shook his head, although he was a little surprised that Chen Geng actually knew that PECVD was the abbreviation of plasma-enhanced meteorological sedimentation, but he was only a little surprised, and he said proudly: "We are a producer. ”

It turned out to be true!

Chen Geng finally knew who this guy in front of him was.

Because of the previous life or more dealing with cars, Chen Geng does not understand the situation of the semiconductor industry, but this does not understand only relative to the insiders, relative to the layman, Chen Geng belongs to the standard "own electronic technology and semiconductor enthusiasts", this can't be helped, in today's increasingly developed electronic technology, as a person in the automotive industry, you are indispensable, and you must also deal with semiconductor technology, electronic technology, naturally it is impossible not to know the famous, The Dutch company ASML occupies an absolute monopoly in the field of lithography machines.

Although the time has passed a little long, many details are not very clear, but some key information Chen Geng still remembers very clearly, such as the predecessor of ASML is ASMI, for example, the founder of ASMI is called Arthur del Prado, for example, in 1984, Arthur del Prado's ASMI company officially cooperated with Philips Group, and the company's name was also changed from the previous Advanced Semiconductor Materials International changes its name to Advanced Semiconductor Material Lithography Holding .......

Of course, ASML or ASMI during this period is far from being the monopoly giant in the lithography machine market that everyone is afraid of more than 20 years later, ASMI during this period can only be regarded as a third-rate semiconductor front-end equipment manufacturer, not to mention compared with GCA, SVG, Ultratch, ASET, Perkin-Elmer, Eaton, Zeiss of the GDR and other semiconductor front-end equipment manufacturers in the United States, even if it is compared with Nikon, Canon, Compared with Hitachi and other Japanese semiconductor front-end production equipment, it is also greatly inferior.

Who would have thought that such a third-rate or even non-mainstream semiconductor front-end equipment manufacturer would be able to break out of the encirclement step by step, win the American semiconductor front-end production equipment manufacturing network, defeat the European and American semiconductor front-end equipment manufacturers, and become an absolute giant in the field of lithography machines?

Today's luck is good, Chen Geng wondered if he should buy a lottery ticket when he went back?

Arthur del Prado is definitely very awesome, but seeing that his old friend wasted his efforts to create this opportunity for him Arthur del Prado, Halber Zitjestra was anxious, and he didn't care that his head was still there, so he hurriedly reminded Arthur del Prado: "Mr. Arthur, this Mr. Fernández Chen is also the boss of the United Data Corporation,"

After saying that, worried that Arthur del Prado would not remember what the United Data Corporation was for a while, Halber Zigestra added: "That is, the ...... that IBM and Apple can't hold up in the microcomputer market."

“ThinkCenter！！”

Before Harber Zigestra finished speaking, Arthur del Prado exclaimed, looking at Chen Geng's gaze, the sword changed like a dog seeing fragrant, freshly out of the pot meat and bones, regardless of whether Chen Geng was happy or not, he stretched out his hand and grabbed Chen Geng's hand and instantly turned into a licking dog: "Mr. Fernandez, it's such an honor to be able to meet you, your ThinkCenter microcomputer is a great product, you are my idol......"

While Chen Geng couldn't laugh or cry, he quickly glanced at Yang Timmer: You explain to me, what is the situation?

Jan Timmer is not stupid, things are up to now, a fool can understand that something is wrong, there is no way to wait for Chen Geng to leave and then ask Halber Jestesla, now he must give Chen Geng an explanation.

Jan Timmer asked Halber Jestesla, "Halber, what the hell is going on?"

"Sir, that's right," Halber Jestesla, knowing that this was the time to jump, replied honestly, "Mr. Arthur would like to cooperate with our Philips Semiconductors division in the field of semiconductor front-end production equipment......"

"Halber, are you kidding?" Before Halber Jestesla's words were finished, Jan Timmer's face turned completely dark: "The board of directors has decided to abandon the production and manufacturing of semiconductor front-end equipment, and you are planning to bring in new partners?"

Yes, the Philips Group in this era has a semiconductor front-end production equipment business, but the performance of the Philips Group in this field is really lackluster, not only can not compare with its European relatives: the Zeiss Group in the GDR, and even compared with Canon, Nikon, Hitachi, these Dongying companies are inferior, as for the comparison with the big brother of the United States, it is even less comparable.

If it weren't for the fact that Halber Jestrasla was the head of Philips Semiconductors, Jan Timmer would almost have wondered if this guy was deliberately smashing the field.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, Jan Timmer saw Halber Jestesla's eyes glaring at him......
