To be honest, Ben Ronnie has long seen that Chen Yiwen is not very good. is obviously a fool who can't see the situation clearly, and he still points out the country in front of him day by day.

Before, this guy hadn't fully boarded the thief ship, so he could only smile on the side.

But now that the thing has been obtained, it is too late for Chen Yiwen to regret it, and Ben Ronnie feels that there is no need to be too polite to this stupid guy.

What about his future in the United States?

It's nothing more than a dog that can only seek refuge. So the sentence just now almost blurted out without the slightest hesitation.

Ben Ronnie thought that Chen Yiwen would be furious when he heard this.

But what he didn't expect was that Chen Yiwen just looked at him with a smile and said, "Oh, Ronnie, I'm sorry." Actually, I didn't mean to, I just said casually, don't be angry. Be careful, it's really as it should be, pay attention next time, pay attention next time. ”

Ben Ronnie was stunned, he thought Chen Yiwen was a complete idiot, but he didn't expect that this guy was actually not stupid to that extent, and he still recognized the situation.

So he nodded slightly and said, "It's good that you understand." Pay attention next time. Also, don't call me Ronnie, I'll be your upline from now on, and you need to learn to have enough respect for me. ”

"Understood, understood, then I'll call you Lao Luo sir from now on?"

"Don't be so deliberate, you can still call me Ronnie usually, just call me boss when it's just the two of us." Ronnie said very formally.

Well, Ben Ronnie has been in China for a shorter time. I didn't realize that Chen Yiwen's sentence "Luo sir" was a little ridiculous.

"Oh, Boss Ronnie, take a look at my stuff. There's no problem, just do what I said before, and help me get out. You know, if you really want to talk about it, if the Institute of Mathematics finds out that something is lost, I will also be unlucky. Chen Yiwen lowered his head and said smoothly.

At this time, Chen Yiwen also endured very hard.

You have to do a whole set of plays.

At this time, if it is seen, it will be a big loss.

He doesn't want to be targeted by Doudou, this artificial intelligence is a chatterbox, and he knows how to bombard WeChat, which is quite terrifying.

"What did you just tell you? Don't be in a hurry, you take it back first and let the waiter serve it. Today we just had a simple meeting, remember? ”

"Remember, Boss Ronnie."

Ben Ronnie nodded with satisfaction, and in just a few minutes, Chen Yiwen had already made him fall in love with this feeling of commanding from above.

One word: cool!

Of course, Ben Ronnie didn't forget what he learned from Langley, and after being licked and comfortable, he remembered throwing a bone out of his hand.

"Just remember, don't worry, after my people test, it's no problem, and everything I promised you will be done." When you arrive in the United States, you will find that it is truly a paradise on earth! Trust me, you won't regret your choice today. ”

"Haha, Boss Ronnie, I see your character! Oh, by the way, there's another important piece of news I forgot to tell you, I heard it when I was at the Institute of Data Research today. Huaxia's next-generation lithography factory was officially put into operation.

And listening to the academician surnamed Zhang told Qiao Ze that its process level is directly benchmarked against the extreme ultraviolet lithography machine that ASML is still designing, that is, the next generation of products. However, for the time being, the design capability is not up to standard, and the capacity of the lithography factory cannot be fully exerted.

This time, the guy surnamed Zhang found Qiao Ze to let Qiao Ze participate in the design of a set of design software or something. I don't know much about the specifics. I don't know if this news is important or not, but I think it should be worth some money, right? ”

Chen Yiwen said this proudly.

He has always felt that Huaxia can master the lithography factory technology so quickly, and there is also his credit.

After all, if he hadn't said those words to Qiao Ze back then, Qiao Ze would not have posted those two papers.

Without those two papers, the project would not have been established, and it would have been created.

Ben Ronnie heard a hint of pride, but he only thought that this was Chen Yiwen's embodying his importance in front of him, so he couldn't help but smile and said, "Oh? Lithography machine? In fact, we have known this news for a long time. But even if you have a heart, I will report to the above, which can be regarded as a credit for you. Don't worry, everything you ask for will be there. ”

After saying that, the two looked at each other again and smiled.

Then they each scolded each other in their minds: "Stupid." ”

……

Institute of Mathematics, Xilin University of Technology.

At this time, Academician Zhang Zhijian of Xilin Optoelectronics Precision Institute did report the good news in Qiao Ze's office.

At that time, the lithography factory project, which was directly started based on Qiao Ze's paper, lasted a year and finally reached the test stage. At that time, Zhang Zhijian specially invited Qiao Ze once, hoping that he could come forward to participate in the test ceremony together.

It's a pity that Qiao Ze flatly refused.

This kind of excitement doesn't matter whether people are genuinely invited or not, Qiao Ze doesn't feel the need to go to this kind of limelight.

And from start to finish, José didn't feel like he had much to contribute to the project.

At that time, the two papers were intended to fool the other side and relax their brains by the way.

For the two academicians of the Institute of Optoelectronics to really be able to make this thing, to be honest, Qiao Ze still had a trace of admiration in his heart.

Thousands of parts require trial and error......

It's really done!

Of course, the performance is definitely not as fake as Chen Yiwen said, it is neither the first generation, nor is the performance so strong.

Not to mention the next-generation lithography machine that ASML is still designing, the performance is even a little worse than the current mainstream lithography machine. However, the minimum NA numerical aperture is also 1.36.

According to the feedback, only a slight adjustment is needed to complete the production process of the extreme limit of 3nm.

Although it is a little worse than ASML's latest two-nanometer limit process, it can basically be said to have kept up with the mainstream, and the gap with the international top level has been narrowed to a tolerable level.

And if you really want to compare, the production efficiency of the lithography factory is much higher than that of a single lithography machine, and with an intelligent operating system, it can lithography up to 13 chips of different specifications in batches at the same time. Theoretically, it can achieve a production efficiency of 2737 pieces per hour.

Of course, the area of the lithography factory is much larger than that of the lithography machine.

In short, each has its own merits.

Of course, it is still in the process of testing.

For the time being, it will not be officially delivered and production will begin.

Moreover, the construction period of the lithography factory is long, but for the current Huaxia, these shortcomings can be ignored.

Because all the spare parts of the lithography factory have been produced nationwide, they are not afraid of being stuck at all.

You can imagine how excited Zhang Zhijian was at this time, really, Zhang Zhijian in front of Qiao Ze at this time looked like an overexcited child.

Holding the first batch of RF chips processed by the lithography factory in his hand, his eyes were red.

"Qiao Ze, on behalf of the more than 2,600 engineers and builders who participated in the design and construction of the lithography factory of Optoelectronics Precision, I would like to thank you, and on behalf of the hundreds of thousands of semiconductor people in Huaxia, I would like to thank you. Your lithography factory design has saved us at least 10 years! Ten years, a generation! ”

The emotional tone even trembled slightly, coupled with the reddish eyes, made Qiao Ze feel a trace of strange emotions in his heart, and also made the atmosphere in the office have a heavy and solemn atmosphere.

Probably because women are more likely to be infected by emotional words, Su Mucheng took away the smile on her lips and looked much more serious.

This also made Qiao Ze rarely ponder for a long time before he answered: "Actually, I didn't contribute much to this project." ”

The next moment, Zhang Zhijian's head shook like a rattle, and he said solemnly: "No, no, no, Professor Qiao, your contribution is obvious to all, and it can be said that without you, this project would not have been possible at all." This is also recognized by all our engineers throughout the lithography factory project. You have contributed greatly to this project.

We have all reached an agreement internally. When this technology officially passes the inspection of the higher authorities, when you declare the credit in the future, the first one must have your name on it. Rest assured, there is no doubt about this. ”

Su Mucheng glanced at Qiao Ze, and there seemed to be stars flashing in his eyes.

This is a lithography factory that can replace the latest lithography machines.

The legendary technique of jamming the neck.

Surely we can win another award for scientific and technological progress, right?

Since receiving the notice that the Qunzhi project was shortlisted for the National Science and Technology Progress Award, Su Mucheng has specially studied this award.

In short, since the establishment of this award, let alone winning it twice in the same year, no one has won it twice.

If Qiao Ze can really break this record......

That made history again.

Well, maybe Qiao Ze doesn't care about these awards at all, but Su Mucheng cares about it tightly.

Watching Qiao Ze win the award is more exciting than her winning. Anyway, the whole world knows that she is just a lucky little woman.

Therefore, Qiao Ze can win the best honors, and none of them can be missing.

It's a pity that Qiao Ze only shook his head slightly and said, "My exchange is always a final word. Previously, the content of our cooperation was to add academicians next year, and you are looking for someone to nominate my mentor Li Jiangao to become an academician. There are no additional strings attached. Next year you did it, and we're going to tie it out. If I don't, I'll find a way to get back what belongs to me.

After speaking, after glancing at Zhang Zhijian's stunned expression, Qiao Ze explained seriously: "It's just a simple exchange, don't complicate things, there's no need." ”

Su Mucheng felt pity and smashed her lips, feeling a little melancholy, although she really wanted Qiao Ze to agree, but she would definitely not help Qiao Ze make a decision.

But when she saw Zhang Zhijian's look from stunned to resentful after Qiao Ze's explanation, her mood suddenly brightened.

From the change in the old academician's expression, Su Mucheng figured out something.

That's right, if Qiao Ze accepted the kindness of this old academician this time, then it would be difficult for people to ask for the door again in the future, and they would not be able to refuse directly.

One yard to one yard is good.

After all, in the future, you don't have anything to ask for others, but others will ask for more from you.

What feelings do you have nothing to talk about? Sad.

The girl was inexplicably sad in an instant, compared to these old fritters, she was still too immature.

"We've already found people, and our old friends have agreed, which is very refreshing. Hey, how do you say that? Lao Sheng and I both feel ashamed, our old friends are full of praise for Professor Li's level, in fact, they will nominate without our help to recommend. Zhang Zhijian said unrelentingly.

Although this statement is debatable, it really does not lie.

Qiao Ze came into contact with a lot of academicians in the Department of Mathematics and Physics some time ago, and at least half of the people in the Department of Mathematics and Physics of the Academy of Sciences will recommend Li Jiangao, including members of the presidium.

There is a high probability that Li Jiangao and Qiao Ze will directly occupy two places.

Needless to say, Li Jiangao's admission to the academician can only be said to be expected, even if Qiao Ze is still so young.

No way, it is said that the Chinese Mathematical Society has received news that the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has almost confirmed that the Cafford Prize will be awarded to José in September this year.

The reason is also outrageous, it is said that many candidates who are qualified to compete for this award have expressed in public or semi-public forums that they do not want to compete with Qiao Ze for some honors. It's very vague, but more powerless.

The scientific community has a relatively standard set of criteria for ranking scientists' contributions.

At the top of the list is the foundational, because it is almost irreplaceable.

Joeze's algebraic geometry has almost perfectly solved a series of microscopic problems, and thousands of mathematicians around the world have devoted themselves to the study of related theories. The most representative of these is the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton.

It's not that Xilin Institute of Mathematics is excluded, the main thing is that the progress of the work here has never been made public.

Although everyone knows that the Xilin Institute of Mathematics led by Qiao Ze has made faster progress in the research of the whole set of theories, and has even extended the supercoil coordinate system, a new coordinate system that can describe the motion of microscopic particles.

However, the Xilin Institute of Mathematics neither discloses the research progress nor has any communication with the outside world, and no one knows the extent of the research, so naturally there is no way to evaluate it. Sending this award to Qiao Ze in advance also somewhat hopes that he can have a spirit of sharing and take the initiative to share his research progress with the outside world.

After all, there is really no need to keep it secret because it is biased towards the content of theoretical research.

In other words, foreign countries are busy showing favor to Qiao Ze, and at this time, they really responded to the answer that Qiao Ze once saw on the understanding, if some people don't enter a certain group, it will be really a loss to the group.

Therefore, for Zhang Zhijian and the Institute of Optoelectronics, it is obviously more cost-effective to have a good relationship with Qiao Ze and deepen the friendship between them than to make a one-shot deal. Unfortunately, José was not really interested in his proposal.

"That's right, for these things, I'm only consequential, and I don't pay attention to the process." Qiao Ze once again directly rejected Zhang Zhijian's kindness.

He really didn't need this to add any luster to him, and he didn't bother to take credit from others. Not to mention the credit of a group.

In the previous building rented by Optoelectronics, he also saw how hard the engineers in charge of the design of specific parts were.

Let's put it this way, at that time, he left the office at ten o'clock every day, and when he left, he didn't see any office in that building with the lights off. And according to Tan Jingrong, almost all the teams in the lithography project team in that building work in two shifts 24 hours a day.

The project operation command center here at Xilin University of Technology is still like this, and it is conceivable that the team tasks of those research institutes and laboratories all over the country must be very heavy.

As Zhang Zhijian said, more than 2,600 engineers participated in the entire project. Qiao Ze can imagine how much effort it takes to direct and coordinate so many people to complete the same project.

In just one year, half of the white hair on the top of the academician's head speaks for itself.

Maybe some people choose to drill the camp to get to the top and then compete for fame and fortune.

But there must be more people who are doing things diligently.

Contaminated with the credit of a diligent worker, Qiao Ze felt ashamed.

"But ......"

"Academician Zhang, if we want to continue to build a cooperative relationship between us in the future, just do what I say. I don't need this opportunity to show my face. However, the Shadow of the Deep project we are working on happens to have several special chips that need to be partnered with. ”

"Understood, we will definitely fully support this!"

"My next phase of work may also require some auxiliary experiments in optics to prove my theory."

"No problem!"

"So be it." Qiao Ze stood up and took the initiative to stretch out his hand towards Zhang Zhijian.

For Qiao Ze, this rare move is not because of the lithography factory, nor for possible future cooperation, but simply because of the old academician's gray hair for more than a year.

Su Mucheng, who knew Qiao Ze best, looked at the young man's outstretched hand and was a little confused.

Brother Qiao's thoughts don't seem to be the same as hers.

……

On the other side, Chen Yiwen finally handed over the hot potato.

Although he reviewed it afterwards, he still felt that the task was a little rougher, and it did not reflect his ability at all. But thinking that it was the first time for him after all, Chen Yiwen forgave himself.

And he still gave a lot.

When he was a snake with Ben Ronnie, it was a great sacrifice to be able to patiently lick this guy.

Fortunately, the experience of getting along with Qiao Ze made him accustomed to this kind of thing.

Anyway, who is not licking?

As long as he can glorify his ancestors, Chen Yiwen has no psychological obstacles at all.

Now the only thing Chen Yiwen is worried about is that those people with brains behind Ben Ronnie won't notice something wrong through that idiot's description, right?

He didn't want to do a lot of useless work for so long.

……

In fact, Chen Yiwen's worries are indeed very reasonable.

When Ben Ronnie successfully handed over what he had gotten through the preset channels, all the senior personnel in Langley were stunned.

Of course, it is possible for a blind cat to catch a dead mouse, but the odds are almost negligible.

In fact, no one believed that a peripheral member who had been training for two months on a temporary basis could accomplish such an important task.

It's just that the top is urging too hard, and no one is willing to push their own good hands into the fire pit to die, so they just let someone deal with the errand.

At special times, everyone subconsciously wants to retain their own strength, which is understandable.

Another person is working this matter, and it is enough to be able to cope with the past.

Ben Ronnie's file has been altered by the powerful Langleys, and in the report to be submitted to him, Ben Ronnie has become a high-level agent that Langley has been training for decades.

If Ben Ronnie fails to complete the mission in the end, or even dies, it will be a great loss for Langley.

After all, doing this kind of task in Huaxia is high-risk, and if it can be completed, it is the talent and skill that you have cultivated by yourself. Unfortunately, it can only be said that the Chinese people are too insidious and cunning.

As long as you prove that you have done your best, you will naturally have no responsibility, which is an eternal truth.

However, it was this person who was supposed to be destined to be sacrificed who actually passed back what they needed?

Who would dare to believe this?

No matter how idiotic Huaxia's peers are, they won't let unrelated people wait in a secret research institute to get things, right?

How it looks like fishing.

But if you think about it the other way around, Huaxia's counterparts should not test their collective IQ in such a crude way.

Could it be because Qiao Ze's status in the Institute of Mathematics is too high, so his friends can really be unscrupulous?

But guess aside, no one would really venture to see what was in the USB stick.

The elves who work here can even suppress their curiosity.

Until this USB flash drive was sent to the hands of Langley's current boss, Roman Wiley, to play with.

……

"This is the material model of the Huaxia people?"

"The intelligence says it's the original beta version."

"Tested?"

"The isolation physical inspection has been carried out, and it is certain that the USB flash drive is intact, the password is available, and the internal files have been scanned and there is no problem, but the contents have not been touched for the time being."

"Oh? What's in there? ”

"Specifically, it's a 72g installation package. Our experts would have liked to analyze the configuration files of the installation package in a non-networked state through some unconventional technical means, but most of them were garbled when parsed. ”

"So why not just test it? Okay, I see, I don't know much about the technical side of things, but I want to ask the experts, if you run this program on a computer without an internet connection for testing, what are the uncontrollable consequences? ”

"Theoretically, not, but that's the problem. Although there will be no uncontrollable consequences of running the program in the state of physical network disconnection, it cannot be used. This is because the material model needs to be networked and supported by a database in order to run. ”

"Well, let's be straight, what do the experts recommend?"

"A local area network was set up specifically for this program, and enough computing power was allocated for testing. To put it simply, enough material data is imported into a data storage center, and then the program is run inside a supercomputing LAN that is only connected to the storage center. ”

"Then why not do it?"

"Need money, Mr. Wiley. It is estimated that it would cost between $200 million and $300 million to conduct such a test. ”

"Are they crazy? Two or three hundred million? How is it calculated? ”

"First of all, we have to pay for the copy of the required data, and then use a truck to transport the hard disk with enough data to a storage center that may be abandoned if something goes wrong for installation, and then we need to use the supercomputer that may also be discarded directly to ensure that the program has enough computing power to support it."

Roman Wiley shook his eyebrows......

Suddenly, I wanted to throw away the USB flash drive in my hand.
