"Huang Si, through the unanimous inspection of 15 members of our expert group, the X-ray lithography machine developed by Shenguang Instrument Company meets the description of the application materials." The leader of the expert group said happily.

The boulder in Huang Anguo's heart finally fell, and he was so happy that he walked around a little helplessly, and it took a while before he calmed down his excitement.

"Let's go see Chief Engineer Huang."

The headquarters of the Thinking Society.

Huang Anguo and the others hurried to the second floor as soon as they got out of the car.

"Director Huang, how are you doing these days?"

"Our expert group has completed the inspection, and the birth permit will come down in a few days." After Huang Anguo finished speaking, he picked up the teacup and took a big sip.

Call!

"These are really troublesome to everyone, so I'll replace wine with tea." Huang Mingzhe smiled and picked up the teacup and said.

"Chief Engineer Huang is polite, it's all within his part." The leader of the expert group did not dare to be arrogant.

Huang Anguo couldn't wait to continue: "Chief Engineer Huang, can the lithography machine of Shenguang Instrument be mass-produced?"

"Of course, mass production is to be mass-produced, but there are no orders for the time being, and our business is also based on the pot rice." Huang Mingzhe replied with a smile.

Everyone also understands this situation, after all, the lithography machine is not a bargain at first glance, and it can't be produced and put in the warehouse for someone to buy it!

If there is any accident or force majeure, it will not rot in your own hands.

"Then I don't know how much an X-ray lithography machine sells?" Huang Anguo then asked.

"1.5 billion units." Huang Mingzhe's face was not red, and his heart was not beating.

1.5 billion? This price can only be said to be high, but it is acceptable, after all, ASML's top lithography machine is also about 120 million US dollars, and the key is that people do not sell it to Huaguo Company.

The lithography machine of Shenguang Instrument can be 10~2 nanometers in terms of accuracy, which is a huge advantage.

Compare it with ASML's top-of-the-line extreme ultraviolet lithography machine, which has just been mass-produced this year.

ASML's top lithography machine: light source - extreme ultraviolet light (wavelength 13.7 nm), which can adjust the equipment to achieve 13.7~7 nm lithography process, and the production efficiency is to process 10 wafers (silicon wafers) of 300 mm per hour.

SGM X-ray lithography machine: light source - X-ray (wavelength 8 nm), the equipment can be adjusted to achieve 10~2 nm lithography process, and the production efficiency is to process 150 pieces of 200 mm wafers (silicon wafers) per hour.

Why is the silicon wafer of Shenguang X-ray lithography machine 200 mm (8 inch wafer), but it is not that 300 mm (12 inch wafer) cannot be used, mainly because the silicon wafer that can be mass-produced in China is mainly 200 mm.

In terms of wafer processing speed, Shenguang is 7.5 times faster than ASML.

And Huang Mingzhe does not plan to sell the Shenguang X-ray lithography machine in the strongest state, the specifications of silicon wafers can be upgraded, the photoresist can be upgraded, the processing accuracy can be upgraded, and the benefits can be maximized by slowly squeezing the toothpaste.

After Huang Anguo and Huang Mingzhe exchanged some opinions, they hurried back to Beiping.

……

February 20th.

The official website of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology published three pieces of information, like a nuclear bomb smashed into a calm lake.

[Announcement on the approval of the production of Shenguang 1X-ray lithography machine of Shenguang Instrument Company]

[Announcement on the reduction and exemption of taxes of Shenguang Instrument Co., Ltd. in 2013~2015 (State Administration of Taxation)]

[Announcement on the subsidy for the purchase of KYO 1X-ray lithography machine by domestic enterprises (Ministry of Commerce, Ministry of Finance)]

Obviously, this information reveals a very important information, that is, Huaguo's lithography machine technology has made breakthroughs.

The major official media and online media immediately seized the opportunity to write a special book.

For a while, all parts of the country knew about it, and the general public was just a conversation after dinner, but in the eyes of relevant practitioners, this was no less than the mushroom cloud in Lop Nur.

SMIC.

Office of the President.

"Where did this Divine Light Instrument come from?" President Zhao Jun put down the document in surprise.

"According to our investigation, Shenguang Instrument Company is affiliated with Thinking Society, and the founder of Thinking Society is Huang Mingzhe, and Dream Company, which owns Thinking Network, is also one of the subsidiaries of Thinking Society." The assistant to the president hurriedly said.

"Huang Mingzhe?"

"It's Huang Mingzhe, the overlord of mathematics and the chief engineer of the Houyi Project."

Chief Technology Officer Li Weiguang said in astonishment: "This guy is so good? Can you even get a lithography machine?"

"The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has come out to endorse it, and it is estimated that eight or nine will not leave ten, and we will go to Shanmei immediately." Zhao Jun said immediately.

"Okay."

Thinking of the difficulties suffered by ASML, Nikon, and Canon over the years, SMIC's senior management has decided that if the performance of Shenguang 1X-ray lithography machine is seventy or eighty, they will buy it immediately.

At the same time, other domestic chip manufacturing companies also reacted quickly.

Huada Semiconductor, Unisplendour, and Yangtze River Storage all ran to Shanmei.

Even HiSilicon, which manufactures low-end lithography machines for microelectronics and chip design, has sent heavyweight representatives to the past.

If it was just a birth permit, they wouldn't have such a big reaction, but with tax cuts and subsidies, obviously the technology of Shenguang Instrument must have dry goods, otherwise there would not be so many favorable policies on it.

As for the foreign side.

Their first reaction was that this was fake news, and their second reaction was to immediately investigate the details of the Shenguang Instrument.

When ASML heard the news, they didn't pay much attention to it, after all, they knew Huaguo's lithography machine technology well, and it was estimated that he was a grandstanding liar, such as the Hanxin incident that year.

Many arrogant Westerners do not believe that Huaguo can build a lithography machine.

Of course, there are still a lot of smart people in the West, and the sheep and pigs at the bottom may not care, but those upper-class elites do not despise Huaguo.

The covert investigation unfolded quickly, and if this was true, then the problem was not trivial.

……

Zhao Jun and Li Weiguang rushed to Shanmei with SMIC people, and they arrived at almost the same time as the representatives of HiSilicon.

I couldn't take care of eating in a hurry, so I went straight to the address of Shenguang Instrument Company.

Gao Zhiyuan, who was busy with the second lithography machine, had to stop what he was doing when he heard the assistant's report that SMIC and HiSilicon had arrived at the door.

As an enterprise that has mastered the top lithography machine technology, Gao Zhiyuan does not have the idea of looking for orders, and he sells it door-to-door.

No, the order was delivered to the door by itself, and there is technology that is so arrogant.

When they came to the door, two groups of people had blocked the door, and there were only six or seven people on the HiSilicon side, while SMIC was much more high-standard, with no less than 50 people.

Obviously, SMIC came prepared and prepared to investigate the lithography machine of Shenguang Instruments.

"You are very welcome to come from afar, Mr. Zhao, Mr. Li, and Mr. Fang, please." Gao Zhiyuan led the way with a smile.

After a few hasty greetings, the three parties went straight to the topic, especially SMIC, who were eager to see the real object of the Shenguang 1X-ray lithography machine immediately.

"Mr. Zhao, the internal management of our company is very strict, and you can't have too many people entering at one time, you choose ten people." After Gao Zhiyuan finished speaking, he turned his head to Fang Long of Hisilicon and said:

"Mr. Fang, let's go to the side and change your work clothes first!"

"No problem."

Six people from HiSilicon followed the staff to change their work clothes.

SMIC also quickly selected ten people, and Gao Zhiyuan took them to change their work clothes.

Then it was dust removal, static electricity removal, etc., and finally they entered the inspection room where the Shenguang 1X-ray lithography machine was displayed.
