766. The Hedgehog

When they arrived in Tokyo, it was snowing all the way, and after returning to the hotel, Li Yifan and they had a good night's rest.

The next day, the heavy snow still did not mean to stop, and according to the weather forecast, the whole of Japan will be covered in the scope of this massive snowfall for the next week.

In the southeast and northeast of Japan, there will be continuous snowfall, which has both advantages and very disadvantages for Li Yifan and his family.

After getting up during the day, after having breakfast in the hotel, Li Yifan took Ah Xiong and Ah Xin to drive to Shinjuku, and when they arrived at Shinjuku Railway Station, Li Yifan did not get off, but asked Ah Xin to get off the car to pick up things.

If they had found out about Nikon, they wouldn't have contacted them by phone or letter.

Although the connection between them has not yet attracted the attention of the relevant Japanese departments, Li Yifan does not want to relax too much, after all, he does not want to lose valuable resources such as Nobuta Isamu and Endo Tatsuto because of a little sloppiness and carelessness, so the contact between them has always been very careful.

This time, if they get the news, they will put it in a locker on the first floor of Shinjuku train station, and Ashin is going to pick up the information.

Sure enough, after about ten minutes, Ashin came back with an extra brown paper envelope on his body, and handed this envelope to Li Yifan as soon as he got in the car.

When Li Yifan took it and opened the envelope, Ah Xiong also started the car and quickly left the train station......

When I see the contents of the envelope. Li Yifan was very happy. But there are also some headaches. The reason for his happiness was that Nobuta and the others really lived up to their expectations, and in just three days, they had found out the relationship between Nikon's internal production departments.

And the headache is that Nikon actually put their high-end factory in China in Sendai, not in Tokyo, they have just tossed back for Japan's Tohoku, and this time they are going to Japan's northeast in heavy snow.

Traveling in such weather is a problem, and you want to do something. It is also a difficult problem, especially to get such a precise instrument as a lithography machine out of Sendai and transport it to the sea......

Li Yifan couldn't help frowning, it seemed that he was going to plan well.

After returning to the hotel and resting for a few hours, the group set out on the journey again, only this time instead of driving, they chose to take a Japanese Shinkansen train.

After all, in such a snowy weather, it is relatively reliable to take a train like the Shinkansen.

Along the way, Lao Tao and his brothers, as well as Ah Xiong and Ah Xin, were not too lonely. Together, we're either chatting or playing cards. After all, Sendai is a famous tourist city in Japan, and it is also a famous hot spring city, so if you don't go to Sendai for a trip to Japan, you will have a lot of regrets.

But Li Yifan has been frowning, and has been thinking about how to start with this Nikon factory.

Unlike Sharp's LED and LCD production plant in Kamezen, Nikon's plant in Sendai is very important to Nikon.

Some of their high-end optical lens equipment are produced here, and even the lithography machine that they attach the most importance to is also produced here.

These machines are Nikon's lifeblood, and they are very different from LEDs, LCDs, and production equipment that are not valued by Sharp.

Their attention to this is not a good thing for Li Yifan, after all, this is very unfavorable to him.

Nikon's Sendai factory is located in Natori City, which is under the jurisdiction of Minami Sendai, very close to Sendai Airport, with a stadium and a large hospital nearby, but it is not a residential area, and the distance from the port is not very close, and it is five kilometers away from the sea.

There are also many storage yards and other facilities in the surrounding area, and it is an industrial area in the suburbs compared to the core area of Sendai City.

However, the security facilities here are tightly configured, the security measures are very good, although there are many other factories around, not residential areas, but the flow of people is relatively dense.

After all, there are a lot of people commuting here every day, and it's not so easy to get a few tight machines out of here.

This is very different from their previous trip to Kamezen City, Li Yifan held the tourist map of Sendai in his hand, roughly observed the geographical situation of this Sendai, and pondered how to get this Nikon machine tool or something.

You must know that compared with Sony, Sharp, Panasonic and other well-known Japanese companies, Nikon is actually their core.

After all, Nikon can produce the most critical lithography machine in the electronics industry, and with this kind of machinery, you can produce simple electronic chips and integrated circuits, after all, these electronic components are the core foundation of the current field of electronics and microelectronics.

I looked at it all the way, thought about it all the way, but I didn't figure out why.

Sometimes thinking about this Nikon, Li Yifan is ruthless in his heart, you say that you can produce such a haode lithography machine, why can't you sell it to our Huaguo?

Even the enterprises in Baodao, you are willing to buy, but they are not sold to us Chinese, if you agree to sell to us, we still need to come all the way to your nest, thinking about your good things?

These Japanese red deer are really hateful.

But if you think about it again, if the Japanese dare to sell this thing to the Chinese, it is estimated that it may not be two or three years later, and their American godfather will have nothing to eat.

At that time, Intel, AMD, and Texas Instruments are estimated to be shocked and collapsed by cheap Chinese-made chips, which the Americans absolutely cannot promise.

Three hundred and forty kilometers away, it takes more than two hours to take the Shinkansen, the train drove all the way, Li Yifan also pondered all the way, but he still couldn't figure out why, Zuihou spent most of his time thinking nonsense.

When he got off the train, Li Yifan couldn't help but tighten his collar, especially after coming out of the train station, he could feel the chill pressing.

Although it is only 340 kilometers away from Tokyo, the temperature here is much lower than that of Tokyo, after all, the dimensions here are higher.

Luckily, it's near the sea, and the whole of Japan has an oceanic climate, so if you're on the main road, the temperature here is definitely much colder.

The university still had no intention of stopping, Li Yifan and his party hurriedly called a few taxis, and then did not go directly to the hotel, but went to the nearest car rental company.

There are more than a dozen of them in the group, and they have to engage in a lot of secret activities, and if they rely on rentals to get around, it is very unsafe.

After renting a few cars, they stayed in a hotel close to the Minamisendai area, which was 4 star and the service was quite good.

After the group finished dinner, Li Yifan still asked Lao Tao to take his people to rest in the hotel, while he and Ah Xiong and Ah Xin continued to take advantage of the heavy snow to close the road.

Nikon's factory in modern times is very different from Sharp's factory in Kamemae, which is a small place with a population of less than 300,000, while Sharp's factory is not set up in a densely populated place, but chooses a beautiful mountain col.

This is not the case with Nikon's factory in Sendai, which is located in the industrial area of Minami Sendai, which has a football field and a large community hospital, which is home to a number of companies.

It is also the logistics and distribution center of Sendai City, and although it is snowing heavily, it is bustling with cars and trucks pulling containers.

Li Yifan, Ah Xiong, and Ah Xin, first walked around Nikon's factory twice and carefully observed Nikon's factory.

This factory was founded in 1971, covering an area of 60,000 square meters, in the south Sendai area of the factory area is definitely one of the largest factories, with about 600 employees, now it is highly automated production, only to the assembly stage of zuihou, will use manual assembly methods, the equipment inside is very advanced.

And the security measures are also very in place, and Sharp's factory in Guiqian City, there is only one old man who watches more, there is not only an electric iron lock door here, but also the security guards stationed in the factory to carry out 20-hour patrols, Li Yifan and they once again passed by the gate, and they saw the handover situation of the security patrol inside through the iron fence gate.

There are about five people in each patrol squad, and I don't know how many such patrol squads there are, and even they have a few black-backed wolf dogs, which greatly increases the difficulty of their start.

This Nikon factory is definitely a tough hedgehog!

Even people like Ashin who don't know much about planning can see that it's not easy to do here, and it's definitely a hard nut to crack.

"Let's go up the hill behind and have a look."

After smoking a few cigarettes at the gate of the Nikon factory, Li Yifan said to Ah Xiong, who was driving in front, the front is very well guarded, and it is obviously not easy to start here, and it is even more impossible to force or something, so you can't grab it hard, right?

So I can only go to the back to see if there are any weak links, this factory is built on the mountain, and even the traces of splitting the mountain and making land can be seen, maybe you can find a breakthrough from the back. (To be continued......)
