On the road to improving lithography machine technology, any small hurdle encountered may cost hundreds of millions of dollars in a few years.

Now Tang Yan solved it with a casual word.

At this moment, Zhao Xifu didn't dare to treat the other party as just a plastic talent, but put him in an equal position, and really discussed EUV lithography machine technology with Tang Yan.

The two people around Zhao Xifu are executives of Huade Company, although they are not technicians, they can't understand the communication between the two. But it can be seen that the professor pays great attention to the students in front of him.

The two also understood that Tang Yan was not too arrogant, but really capable.

The more Zhao Xifu communicated with Tang Yan, the brighter his eyes became.

Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he changed his mildness and shouted angrily at the cameraman holding the camera.

"What are you doing? Isn't it still shooting?! ”

The cameraman was a little confused and looked at the camera in his hand.

"Oh! I just forgot about it. ”

Zhao Xifu hurriedly said to the two people behind him: "Buy that camera and destroy it!" ”

The two were stunned.

It's not that they didn't listen to Zhao Xifu's words, but that the instructions issued by Zhao Xifu were too strange, and the two didn't react for a while.

Zhao Xifu didn't count on these two people, and walked in front of the cameraman with a serious face.

"Make a price, sell me the camera!"

The second monk of the cameraman was confused, but he knew that the status of the person in front of him was not low, so he handed the camera to Zhao Xifu and accompanied him with a smiling face.

"This is something from the station, I can't sell it to you, you can use it if you want, it doesn't matter how many days you use it, I just make a report with the station."

The two people from Huade Company stepped forward and asked Zhao Xifu in a low voice.

"Academician Zhao, what happened?"

The attitude of the cameraman is very good, and Zhao Xifu has calmed down now.

He looked at the camera in his hand with a solemn expression.

"If I'm not mistaken, Tang Yan should have a complete EUV lithography machine technology in his hands. And the conversation between me and Tang Yan just now was all recorded by this camera. If this video is released, it will take less than a year for Nikon companies to make a drastic change in the lithography machine, and then we will not have the first opportunity. ”

Although the two people of Huade Company are not technicians, they are also industry insiders, and when they understood the importance, their faces immediately became serious.

In this era, whoever masters EUV lithography machine technology first will become king.

Time is money, the winner takes all, and the loser has nothing.

Hundreds of billions of dollars of interests are involved, and there is no room for sloppiness.

One of the Huade Company hugged the camera tightly, and the other spoke to the cameraman.

"The camera is here for us, and we will call and tell your director about the details."

The reporter and the cameraman looked at each other, and there was some hesitation in their eyes.

They are all workers, and without the consent of the leaders, how dare they be the masters of such an important household.

There was a moment of silence in the atmosphere.

Tang Yan was the first to break the silence; "Ahem! I said, didn't you read my paper before you came to me? ”

The attitude of the people of Huade Company towards Tang Yan has changed 180 degrees.

One of them laughed and said, "Naturally, I have read it!" I didn't expect you to be so advanced in the technology of lithography machines! ”

When this person said ahead of his time, he was referring to EUV lithography machine technology.

But Tang Yan spread his hands helplessly as if he didn't know.

"If you know that you are ahead of your time, why do you value the outdated EUV lithography machine technology so much? Give the camera back to the cameraman, outdated technology is worthless. ”

"Outdated!?" The man from Huade Company couldn't help but ask.

If these words hadn't come out of Tang Yan's mouth, the two of them would probably have cursed.

This is the core project that their company has been working on for several years!

And their company has always been proud of being at the forefront of technology, and now it is inconceivable to say that a technology that their company has not studied and understood is outdated!

Tang Yan nodded affirmatively: "Yes!" With AFR lithography technology, EUV lithography technology is destined to die before it has time to appear on the stage of history! ”

"Uh......" Both of the Huade Company said they didn't believe it.

Zhao Xifu was very interested and asked: "With your professionalism, you should also know that in the field of lithography machines, a technical conjecture and prototype cannot determine the market. What really determines the market is better mature technology. ”

Tang Yan bowed his head and smiled confidently: "That's right, AFR lithography machine technology is a better and more mature technology!" ”

Zhao Xifu's expression was solemn: "Are you sure?" ”

Tang Yan smiled: "Sure, with my research on EUV lithography machine technology, I am very sure!" ”

Zhao Xifu glanced back at the two people in Huade Company, and the meaning in his eyes was very obvious.

These two people have always been headed by Zhao Xifu, but they can make the reporter say that they are three big guys, and their positions in the company are not low, and they have considerable decision-making power in many things.

The slightly older one took the lead in speaking: "You can tell us so much, you must have also understood the imperative of Huade Company's independent research and development of mobile phone chips, and the new technology of lithography machine." ”

Tang Yan bowed: "That's right, if you take what I just said as the basis, I think in about a year, your company will be able to innovate the lithography machine technology." ”

The older man shook his head with a smile: "But as you said, there are more advanced and perfect technologies, and some technologies are destined to be worthless. To put it bluntly, our company is very interested in your patents. ”

"I don't sell patents!" Tang Yan replied very directly.

If she wants to open a mobile phone chip factory, she will definitely sell the patent at a good price and use it as start-up capital.

But now that she has to make lasting money from the patents in hand, she won't do this hammer deal.

The two of them are both elites in the shopping mall, so they naturally understand what Tang Yan means, don't they just want the benefits of the lithography machine to share dividends!

For lithography machines, which have an almost negligible material cost, whoever holds the technology in their hands is the big guy, and everything can be discussed!

Although the new technology in Tang Yan's mouth has not been confirmed, the EUV lithography machine technology is here.

Even if the new technology is not mature enough, EUV lithography machine technology will be enough for decades.

Tang Yan has mastered these two technologies, so as long as he talks with Tang Yan, he can occupy the future high-end lithography machine market and make a lot of money.

The people of Huade Company have a high tolerance for Tang Yan, and Tang Yan also wants to continue to cooperate in the future, so he didn't open his mouth and set a figure of 17.5%.

Next, there is no need for an interview, just go directly to the headquarters of Huade Company to sign the contract.

Before leaving, Tang Yan also looked back at the reporter's sister.

Originally, no one watched the interview, but this time, even her interview was gone.

I don't know if my parents will be happier to hear the news that she is on TV, or they will be happier to hear that she is about to sign a contract worth tens of billions of dollars.
