Xu Yun is undoubtedly the most beautiful business card of the Academy of Sciences, coupled with the status of a distinguished researcher, someone will take the initiative to greet every two steps into the building of the Academy of Sciences, even if Hou Shengchang, the president of the Academy of Sciences, comes over.

Li Tingbo, who could be said to have seen it on the road, was very envious, and an extremely strong emotion emerged in his heart.

If the timeline is moved forward by five years, I am afraid no one would have thought that Xu Yun would be able to achieve such an achievement today.

In addition to being a distinguished full professor of Beijing University and a researcher of the Academy of Sciences, he also won the Science and Technology Progress Award for his own ability, which is indeed beyond his previous understanding.

But the more so, the more precious Xu Yun becomes.

With such a young and powerful genius scientist here, it seems that any problem that human civilization will face is no longer a problem.

To put it simply, it's easy to feel secure and not be afraid to worry about anything.

Xu Yun naturally didn't know what Li Tingbo was thinking, and with a smile on the corner of his mouth, he frequently signaled to others, and walked for almost a few minutes before he came to the dean's office.

Because this meeting was invited by Hou Shengchang, he was waiting patiently in the office at the moment and did not go to the laboratory.

However, considering the identity and politeness of both parties, he immediately stopped before and after arriving at the office door.

Choose to raise your hand and knock first.

Although with their level of familiarity, they don't need to care about this detail.

As the knuckles lightly clicked on the solid wooden door, a crisp sound suddenly came from inside.

"Please come in."

Xu Yun pushed the door in, and Li Tingbo followed behind to try not to be conspicuous.

This time, he was purely sending Xu Yun over, and he definitely couldn't take the lead.

If there is something to talk about, let Xu Yun and Hou Shengchang talk about it.

Even if the topic of discussion involves hidden content, he will go to the next lounge with great interest.

Mainly, strictly speaking, the Office of the Natural Science Foundation and the Academy of Sciences, which he is responsible for, are two different institutions.

Hou Shengchang raised his eyes and saw that it was Xu Yun who came in, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he quickly stood up from the chair.

Hurry up and greet him, with a smile on his face: "It's so early, why don't you rest much." ”

"For us researchers, the body is the key." The words are full of concern.

Xu Yun used to have a deep sleep time and didn't stay up all night, but now he can easily deal with the project when his level is improved.

So I thought it was relatively easy, and I didn't feel any fatigue when I was doing research.

What's more, the injection sample he drew from the random reward last time can basically guarantee that his cells will not become cancerous, so there is really no need to worry too much about this.

But these things are definitely not suitable to talk to Hou Shengchang.

After a little thought, I decided to pick it up.

"I happened to be in the imperial capital for the past two days, and I came here to see the scenery and relax."

"Sit down."

After listening to Xu Yun's answer, Hou Shengchang had a stronger smile on his face.

He greeted Xu Yun and Li Tingbo very warmly, and took the initiative to pick up the cup and make tea.

Xu Yun knew that Hou Shengchang liked tea culture, so he didn't refuse, just sat upright and waited for the tea to be brewed.

On the other hand, Li Tingbo behaved very naturally, and was obviously a master of tea tasting at ordinary times.

Immediately afterwards, Hou Shengchang continued to speak: "You have made a lot of noise in the past two days, and it is very noisy all over the world. ”

Regarding Hou Shengchang's words, Xu Yun did not feel strange at all.

After all, the announcement of the door frame robot has indeed caused extensive discussion among overseas users and the media.

Even the security building is worried and does not hesitate to do anything in the semiconductor market.

Xu Yun didn't mean to hide it, and replied directly and generously: "It takes luck to be able to complete this project independently, but it is indeed a bit unexpected to bring such a big response." ”

"The value of the door frame robot is immeasurable, and I was shocked when I first saw it."

Hou Shengchang waved his hand and replied with a smile.

Speaking of which, he didn't know the specific situation in advance, but he had heard that someone had brought out a new guy.

After all, even as the president of the academy, there are still some regulations that need to be strictly followed.

It's really not good to take the initiative to ask about the situation.

He was also very surprised when he saw the news report yesterday.

Unexpectedly, in addition to the strange shape and practical action of the door frame robot developed by Xu Yun, it can also exert such terrifying combat effectiveness in actual combat, especially the project completed by Xu Yun alone.

Last year, when he saw the list of winners of the Science and Technology Awards Conference, he was very curious.

I can't think of any kind of project that will win the grand prize of the Progress Award.

I wonder if there's something special about it.

Looking at it now, Xu Yun can win the grand prize completely by himself, and he does have a sufficient level of strength.

What made him extremely happy was that Lao Mei broke the defense because of this.

From the establishment of the Academy of Sciences to the present, so many researchers and academicians have been working hard one after another, in order to shorten or even catch up with the overseas technology gap as soon as possible.

Avoid being constrained by others and not getting the right to speak.

But this time, Xu Yun directly raised the field of robotics to a new height.

In turn, lead the other side.

This is a very rare occurrence in recent years.

Hou Shengchang did not continue to talk on this topic, and took the initiative to hold it up and hand it to Xu Yun after the tea was brewed.

"Taste it."

"Thank you, Dean Hou." Xu Yun took it with both hands and thanked him.

Then I put it to my mouth and tasted it.

As for Li Tingbo, he naturally did not have this kind of treatment, so he had to do it himself.

Just as Xu Yun was drinking tea, Hou Shengchang's voice came from his ears again.

"What do you think of the latest documents released by semiconductor companies such as Qualcomm?"

Xu Yun knew that Hou Shengchang was most concerned about the semiconductor field, otherwise he would not have come to Jingzhou University to find him.

Throwing up such a question right now is probably the purpose of coming to him today.

Thinking of this, he put down the teacup in his hand and slowly spoke his opinion.

"They have been suppressing our development in the semiconductor field, and they don't want us to have our own high-end chip manufacturing industry chain, and now they have come up with this kind of overlord clause to retaliate against the door frame robot, if domestic manufacturers accept it, then our development will become a joke."

"What's more, those high-end chip companies will not give up such a big domestic market cake."

"I'm afraid that when the time comes, they will abolish this document themselves, and there is nothing to worry about at all."

"I support Professor Xu on this point, since people don't want to sell it to us, why bother to buy it." At this time, Li Tingbo couldn't help but take Xu Yun's words, and replied with a sneer: "At that time, their chips will not be sold on the street." ”

The expression on Hou Shengchang's face did not change, as if he had long been aware of Xu Yun's attitude.

After a slight pause for two seconds, he continued: "In fact, domestic manufacturers are basically boycotting, but this requires our extreme ultraviolet lithography machine to be delivered as soon as possible. ”

Hearing this, Xu Yun understood that there should be a manufacturer who wanted to confirm the situation and see whether the domestic extreme ultraviolet lithography machine was true or false.

In this case, Xu Yun naturally had nothing to say, and directly made a categorical guarantee.

"Please rest assured that according to the plan of our project team, the first domestic extreme ultraviolet lithography machine will be delivered in the summer."

"Are you really sure of that?" Hou Shengchang asked excitedly.

A few years ago, he learned some information from the Institute of Optoelectronic Technology, and knew that the light source projection system was technically overcome, but considering the span from 28 nm to 7 nm, the probability of formal delivery in a short period of time may be very low.

For this reason, Xu Yun gave a definite delivery time in an interview, and he was worried.

After all, if this is not delivered in time, it will definitely be found by those overseas media.

Xu Yun met Hou Shengchang's eyes and nodded, repeating: "At present, in addition to completing the breakthrough in the core technology of the extreme ultraviolet lithography machine, we also use artificial intelligence to debug and verify, and if there is no emergency, we can basically complete the first manufacturing in the summer." "When he speaks, his eyes are extremely firm and confident.

"Okay."

"Great."

"Okay."

Hou Shengchang finally put his mind at ease at this time, and said three words in a row with a smile on his face.

With his understanding of Xu Yun, if he dares to say it to this extent, he is absolutely 100% sure.

Thinking that the domestic extreme ultraviolet lithography machine will be launched soon, his mood can be imagined.

The key is that with the extreme ultraviolet lithography machine, coupled with the high-end photoresist and Yinglong EDA industrial software that have been conquered for a long time, we can form our own high-end chip manufacturing industry chain.

Completely get rid of the limitations of high-end chips.

After calming down a little, Hou Shengchang said: "It seems that it is a very correct choice for me to ask you to be the person in charge of this project." ”

"To develop the field of domestic semiconductors, as a scientific researcher, it is what you should do."

Xu Yun listened to Hou Shengchang's praise and replied quite humbly.

At this point, Hou Shengchang can be regarded as getting the result he wants.

The whole person couldn't help but relax a lot.

"With your words, domestic manufacturers should also be able to take a reassuring pill, so that they can join forces to boycott together." At this time, Hou Shengchang said with a smile and then looked at Xu Yun and asked, "This time I finally came to the headquarters of the Academy of Sciences, do you need me to let someone take you around?" ”

Although Xu Yun was invited to join the Academy of Sciences as a researcher, he was only familiar with the Institute of Optoelectronic Technology.

It is indeed relatively unfamiliar with the headquarters of the Imperial Capital Academy of Sciences.

However, thinking that the current lithography machine project is in a critical period, and Chen Shihe is pregnant, it is indeed not suitable to stay in the imperial capital for too long.

The thought stayed here, Xu Yunwan refused: "I believe that there will be opportunities to stay in the Academy of Sciences in the future, and now I still want to go to Jincheng as soon as possible to ensure that the extreme ultraviolet lithography machine is delivered on time." ”

Hou Shengchang naturally understands the priority of the matter, not to mention that he should be even more happy to see that Xu Yun's mind is on the project.

Naturally, there will be no complaints about this.

"Since you've planned it, I won't keep you today, but remember that the body comes first."

"You are now the most important asset of the state."

Hou Shengchang took the initiative to stand up and give a final explanation to Xu Yun, and then personally sent Xu Yun away.

……

Xu Yun is not an indecisive person, and he will not hesitate to make up his mind.

After coming out of the headquarters of the Academy of Sciences, he asked Li Tingbo to send him to the station.

He planned to go back to Jingzhou City first, and then go to Jincheng after arranging the affairs of his family.

Although Luo Changhui and Yang Jing are in charge of Jincheng, there will be basically no problems as long as they go step by step, but the urgency of this matter has increased significantly, so it must be more reassuring to sit in person.

In this way, even if there is an emergency, he is sure to solve it with his own strength.

However, on the way over, Li Tingbo, who was the driver himself, suddenly seemed very worried.

While frequently looking at the side mirror of the car, he said to Xu Yun: "The situation is a little wrong, Professor Xu, there is a car behind us that seems to be following us." ”

Hearing Li Tingbo's obviously nervous voice, Xu Yun raised his gaze and straightened his body to look at the car behind him.

After discovering that it was just an ordinary car and keeping a safe distance, I immediately relaxed.

Then the corners of his mouth rose and a smile appeared to explain to Li Tingbo: "You are too sensitive, don't forget that this is the imperial capital." ”

"Maybe I'm thinking too much." Li Tingbo was a little embarrassed when he heard this.

But this can't be blamed on him, after all, there are only two of them in the car, and Xu Yun is on the first list of the security building, if something really happens, it will be a huge loss for all mankind.

Reasonable suspicion is necessary.

Of course, Xu Yun knew what Li Tingbo was thinking, but there were some things he didn't say in detail.

With the strength he has shown and his current status, he must have already entered the national key protection object.

Even his family is protected.

But this kind of protection does not mean that the water around you is not clear when you travel every day.

Otherwise, it's too inconvenient to really look like a star.

To put it simply, although Xu Yun travels like a normal person, there will be people in the dark to ensure safety.

In the event of even the slightest accident, immediate action is taken.

In addition, he also learned from Yu Hongda Liu Dong that his protection level has recently been raised to a higher level.

It is even planned to connect the AI model into the urban road monitoring system in the deep sea.

This makes it even more worry-free about safety.

Anyway, he is now on the list of security buildings, and the visa has long since lost its effect.

There are really few places to go except at home and abroad.

In short, he is very satisfied with his current state, and he does not need to know who the people who protect him safely.

Such a small episode occurred in the middle, and it did not affect the speed of their vehicle.

After arriving at his destination, Xu Yun quickly boarded the train to Jingzhou, while Li Tingbo returned to the office of the Natural Science Foundation of China alone.

……

Besides, Hou Shengchang's side, after he got Xu Yun's affirmative reply, he fed this reassuring pill to those domestic manufacturers.

With the guarantee, the major manufacturers obviously have enough confidence, and almost on the same day, they jointly issued a document to express their attitude.

As the big brother Warwick who has been affected for a long time, this time he personally took the lead.

The joint statement was not very much, but it was very important.

The central idea can be summed up as one, and we will never accept any form of unfair cooperation.

And there is no need for companies such as Qualcomm to respond. They were the first to announce that they would no longer purchase high-end chips from the next quarter.

And when this joint statement was released, even netizens were very surprised.

In the past, when encountering similar things, most manufacturers often chose to compromise or find other ways to solve them for their own interests.

But it will definitely not be so quick to make a public statement.

It is indeed very rare that a consensus was reached in just one day.

However, after being surprised, netizens were more excited, because they finally saw that the manufacturer was tough.

As this joint statement quickly appeared on the hot search of major websites, countless netizens posted to express their support.

It's unprecedented.

After all, in the past, these mobile phone manufacturers were either scolded profiteers, or sprayed after-sales service.

All of a sudden, it's all positive comments, and it's truly spectacular.

"Is the sun coming out in the west today, and suddenly everyone is suddenly so hard?"

"It's finally hard this time, let's put the words here first, and even if there is a flagship machine without a top chip in the future, I will support it."

"It's long overdue, everyone doesn't buy it, and let's see who is the most anxious at that time."

"The main thing is that the reaction speed this time is a bit fast and scary, I should have gotten some definite news."

"It looks like our semiconductor field is finally going to rise."

"Don't forget, Professor Xu has long said that the first extreme ultraviolet lithography opportunity will be delivered this year, and then we will be able to produce high-end chips ourselves, who will buy them."

……

As netizens said, the first to worry about this matter is not those mobile phone manufacturers, but companies such as Qualcomm as suppliers.

Originally, they also acted according to the above orders, thinking that mobile phone manufacturers would finally accept this new agreement in order to use the most powerful chip for their flagship phones.

Even if it is difficult to accept, there is room for negotiation and will not affect their order too much.

However, the trend of things was far beyond expectations, and within 24 hours of the release of the document, all manufacturers reached a consensus and jointly issued a statement.

And also took the initiative to stop the procurement of chips.

The performance is inevitably too decisive.

It's just that at this time, I can't think about the reason, and how to eliminate the impact is the key.

The Asian market is so big that it accounts for almost the majority of their chip purchases, and they will also lose a lot if they are willing to shrink their market value and not use high-end chips.

To this end, Qualcomm CEO Anlenkov immediately convened a meeting of the company's senior management to discuss the plan.

"You all know the situation now, the company must not suddenly lose so many orders, whether our previous approach is correct or not, we must come up with a response plan as soon as possible."

In the spacious and bright conference room, Anrenkov frowned, his eyes scanning the company executives on both sides.

Unfortunately, as his words fell, the entire conference room seemed very quiet, and no one took the lead in responding.

In fact, when the company first received the above order, some executives were opposed.

It is considered stupid to think that this so-called crackdown is quite stupid and will also affect the company's own interests.

But in the end Anlenkov chose to support.

Maybe he was also afraid, worried that Xu Yun could really manufacture an extreme ultraviolet lithography machine to solve the problem of the high-end chip manufacturing industry chain, so he wanted to take this opportunity to further crack down.

However, he didn't expect that instead of developing in the direction he thought, the situation became more difficult to end.

If the company does lose a large number of orders, then he, the CEO, will definitely be forcibly sacked.
