Chapter 17 Laser Emitters and Optical Lenses
In late July, in Shenzhen, a vigorous display revolution began.
Not only Yuan Lin is extremely enthusiastic about this, but also Brother Xiao Ma of Penguin Group, Boss Chen of Station B, Boss Lei of Xiaomi and others are also trying to join this game.
So Brother Xiao Ma simply pulled a group, and pulled all the bigwigs who have been interested in the laser holographic project so far into the group, so as to facilitate contact with each other and integrate advantageous resources.
It is too absurd to rely on the plot of relying on a single person to make a lithography machine by himself in the novel.
In the real world, although Asmail is the only lithography machine giant in the world, there are more than 200 partners that provide its main components.
Without Carl Zeiss lenses, Canon's focus traps, and Rheinland steel's stabilizing brackets, the lithography machine would not have been possible.
Judging from Yuan Lin's planning, the manpower and material resources to be used for laser holographic technology are no less than those of Asmail's lithography machine, and it is also a high-precision project with huge costs.
In terms of the choice of partners, Yuan Lin has an open attitude, as long as he is willing and able to help, even a company with a black history such as the conscience of the United States has no problem at all.
Yuan Lin has witnessed the magic and magnificence of the future world again and again, and feels more and more that the only goal of contemporary human beings is to get out of the earth as soon as possible and go to the sea of stars, and business struggles, national competitions and other things are all wasted lives.
Since it is laser holography technology, the first thing that needs to be solved is naturally the light source.
In this field, Coherent, Trumpf, Roven, Spectral Physics, IPG, Ennai, Lumentum, Finisar, II-VI, these foreign companies, with leading technology and huge scale, are mainstream players.
In terms of China, it is led by some enterprises such as Han's, Huagong, Wuhan Ruike, Shenzhen Chuangxin, Xi'an Torchlight, and Imperial Capital Caplin, and the technology is generally backward with foreign countries.
With the help of partners, under the careful communication and screening of Yuan Lin, Shenzhen Chuangxin successfully joined the laser holographic project, and the foreign partner is a name that surprised everyone, Munich Optoelectronics.
Munich Optoelectronics is only well-known in Germany and Europe, and it cannot be compared with laser giants such as Rofin and Trumpf.
Yuan Lin chose this company for two reasons, one is the research direction, and the other is the patent.
After all, this is a laser holographic projection, and it is not a pulsed laser cannon, and the technology required is mainly low energy consumption and high precision.
As for the other Shenzhen Chuangxin, Yuan Lin's reason for choosing it is that it is close, so close that it is only separated by two roads and can be walked for ten minutes...
The matter of choosing a laser light source partner took Yuan Lin three days, and during this time, Xing Xing and Xia Qiuyu were not idle.
The laser holographic project is a huge system project, and the company's existing office buildings are obviously unable to meet the urgent development needs, so Xia Qiuyu came forward and signed a lease agreement for two buildings in the science and technology industrial park, and Xing ran to Xiamen in one breath.
As we all know, the optics major of Xiamen University ranks among the top in the country, and in the optics major, Xiamen University also has the strongest holographic research major in China.
So the question is, what is the gold content of the holographic research major of the Department of Optics of Xiamen University? It is said that the entrance examination for the holographic research major does not test mathematics, but directly considers subphysics.
Anyway, the final result is that Gao Fatzi relied on his three-inch incorruptible tongue to directly incorporate half of the optics department of Xiamen, and pulled people directly from Xiamen to Shenzhen.
Of course, the bigwigs in the science and technology circle have also made a lot of efforts, they specially organized a group to lobby at Xiamen University, while endorsing quantum technology and Yuan Lin's character, on the other hand, they also talked about the prospects of the laser holographic project, and the students and professors felt that if they didn't join Yuan Lin's team, this life would be in vain.
In addition to the Department of Optics of Xiamen University, Gao Xing also went to famous universities such as Qingbei Fujiao to recruit talents.
With the endorsement of the bigwigs in the science and technology circle, Gao Fatzi's work efficiency is extremely high, and Yuan Lin can see new faces almost every day in the headquarters, and the number of employees has exploded.
At first, Yuan Lin could still remember the names of these newcomers, but with the rapid expansion of the company, Yuan Lin can only see everyone smiling and nodding now.
After the completion of the two important things of laser light source and high-precision talents, Yuan Lin set his sights on the four kings of optical lenses, Leica, Zeiss, Nikon, and Olympus.
Subsequently, Yuan Lin also contacted the Four Little Kings of Optical Lenses, Schneider, Rotonsster, Takahashi, and AP.
Although in the field of myopia lenses, Essilor, TAG Heuer and other companies are in full swing, but this optical lens is not the other optical lens.
No matter how good the effect of Essilor's myopia lenses is, they cannot be used for top optical products such as laser microscopes and laser lenses.
Perhaps because the technical standards are too advanced, neither the Four Heavenly Kings of Optics nor the Four Little Heavenly Kings have agreed to Yuan Lin's request, and in desperation, Yuan Lin had no choice but to go to Swarovski again.
That's right, it's the stupid boy Swarovski who takes artificial crystals every Valentine's Day, and they are not only luxury manufacturers, but also the world's top three microscope manufacturers, and the lens craftsmanship is no less than Zeiss and Leica.
Not surprisingly, Swarovski made a lot of money in the field of luxury goods, and Swarovski had no intention of following Yuan Lin to start from scratch and engage in scientific research hard.
In this way, the situation is more embarrassing, Yuan Lin found that there is no optical lens company in the world that he can look down on, and there is no company willing to cooperate with him, and the level of the enterprise that is willing to cooperate with himself is not good, there is no technical accumulation, and he has to start from scratch with them.
At the beginning, the Huaxia lithography machine project could not be won for a long time, a big reason was that the lens could not be found, and in the end, Changchun Optical Machinery Institute stepped forward and took over this thankless job.
Yuan Lin didn't want to cooperate with a similar Changchun Institute of Optics and Machinery, because their wages were too low, and cooperation could easily turn into partnership squeezing.
In China, many times scientific researchers are synonymous with free cattle and horses.
In the spring of 2022, an incident happened at the Changchun Institute of Optics and Mechanics that shocked Yuan Lin, the scientific researchers were fed up with the unpalatable and expensive canteen meals, and vomited two sentences, but they were severely criticized by the leaders and ordered to apologize.
Let Jin Gui's scientific researchers apologize to the fat-headed and big-eared canteen administrator, this is probably a Chinese characteristic of the scientific research community.
You know, not to mention Google and Microsoft across the Pacific Ocean, even if there are slightly famous technology companies in China, which of them does not raise scientific researchers to be fat and strong, for fear that they will not eat well, and I can't even help them find a wife.
Yuan Lin had eaten in the canteen of the Penguin Group a few times, not much, just more than 100 dishes, plus more than 100 kinds of snacks and drinks.
After coming back, Yuan Lin said that he was very satisfied with the food, and that providing high-quality food would indeed help improve the work efficiency of scientific researchers, and that quantum technology should be learned, and the world's first-class company canteen should be established as soon as possible.
In this regard, Xia Qiuyu expressed his support and immediately began to prepare.
To be honest, it doesn't really matter whether there are a hundred dishes or two hundred dishes in the cafeteria.
The important thing is the attitude, you can't feed the scientific researchers as pigs, and after feeding, people are not allowed to be picky eaters and scold you.
You know, if Mr. Lu Xun is alive and knows about this, he will definitely scold you for being a bloody dog, and if Taizu is alive, when he hears about this incident, he will ask for your head.
In short, Yuan Lin didn't look down on the style of those people, and there was only one choice left.
So, when the time came to mid-August, Quantum Technology officially signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Wanxin and Mingyue, the two largest optical lens companies in China.
