Wang Gang came and went in a hurry, since Qin Feng no longer needed XCMG's experience introduction, then he also said goodbye, and sent the two of them to the car, Qin Feng greeted the bright sunshine with a smile on his face: "Huang Lao, are you familiar with Professor Xu?" ”

"We've been touched."

"Then do you think we can bring Professor Xu here? We, a high-tech company, also want to have a chip production equipment company under our jurisdiction. ”

Huang Lao was stunned for a moment: "Mr. Qin, this kind of chip production equipment has a huge R&D investment, and if it is developed, there may not be a manufacturer to purchase ......it."

"We Pacific Group have money." Qin Feng said: "The money that others are not willing to spend, we Pacific Group are willing to spend, for the strength of the national chip, even if we throw all the profits in, we will not hesitate!" ”

Huang Lao took a deep breath: "Mr. Qin, it is my honor to come to such a company, I hope you will not forget your original intention, go, I will take you to Professor Xu." ”

At that time, in that special era, Professor Xu was still planting rice on a farm in Jiangxi, and he was ready to take root in the farm for the rest of his life, but suddenly received a message from the capital, which was needed for national defense, and he was transferred back to the school to preside over the research and development of automatic lithography machines!

So, Professor Xu returned to the Department of Precision Instruments of Tsinghua University and began to work on lithography machines, and his superiors attached great importance to him and equipped him with a team of more than 100 people.

With their efforts, the step-by-step projection lithography machine was finally successfully developed, but it was faced with an embarrassing situation: it was better to buy than to build.

No one believes in the performance of domestic products, they would rather purchase backward models from the international market, rather than purchase their own lithography machines with international advanced level! The entire R&D team was faced with an awkward situation.

On this day, Professor Xu sat in front of the computer in a daze, and there was a large vertical cabinet next to the computer, which was the lithography machine they had developed with great concentration.

"Professor Xu, we have to find a way." On the side, Yang Zhenjun, director of the Department of Precision Instruments, said: "We have to find a way, the higher authorities have stopped funding our project, if we don't have orders, we will have no income, and if we don't have income, we will not be able to continue to develop more advanced technology, and the whole project will lose its living space." ”

"Yes, they would rather buy backward products from abroad than buy our advanced production equipment!" Professor Xu's words were bitter: "Even if those civilian electronics factories are counted, the same is true of military factories, I heard that several military factories have been making reports recently, racking their brains to purchase advanced lithography machines from abroad, they are trying to find a way to bypass the restrictions of Batumi, they would rather spend more money than purchase our own production!" ”

"yes." Yang Zhenjun sighed: "You say, how about we open an exhibition?" Show our own lithography machine in front of the whole country and even the whole world, and let them see that we have the ability to develop a world-class advanced lithography machine, and we do it ourselves, no worse than foreigners'! ”

"Not good." Just then, a voice came from the door.

Yang Zhenjun raised his head curiously to look outside, and at this time, the door was gently pushed open, and a young man appeared there.

"You're a student in our department?" Yang Zhenjun asked curiously, a passing student, heard their conversation, came in to make a high-pitched talk? He knows the patriotic enthusiasm of the students, but what is the use of this? You have to find a factory that is willing to place an order to be useful.

Wait, why is there still a person standing outside? Seeing that figure, Yang Zhenjun was stunned for a moment: "Lao Huang, why are you here?" Quick, come in, you brought this student? ”

Huang Lao smiled: "That's right, I brought him here, but he is not a student, he is President Qin of the Pacific Group." ”

"Mr. Qin? The big financier behind the one who supported you in building Loongson? Yang Zhenjun had heard about it, and they were all very emotional at that time, a private enterprise was more willing to invest in chips than the country, which was too good!

Professor Xu stood up suddenly: "Mr. Qin? Are you here to buy our lithography machine? Come, please come here, let me introduce you to our lithography machine, which is a step-by-step projection lithography machine with the world's third generation of advanced level. ”

In fact, Qin Feng doesn't know much about these, he knows that in the future, China will be stuck in chip manufacturing, and the lithography machine will be ranked first, but he doesn't know the specific principle of this thing, he only knows a few key technologies.

Now, he pretended to understand very well, stood in front of the lithography machine, listened to Professor Xu's introduction, and then said: "Can this lithography machine produce chips with 1 micron process?" ”

"Yes." "At present, this lithography machine has been able to produce chips with a 1-micron process stably, and if we have the funds to continue to improve, it can be reduced to the level of hundreds of nanometers," Professor Xu said. At the same time, its technology is very mature, and it can increase the yield rate of chip manufacturing to more than 70%. ”

In the past, the yield rate of domestic lithography machines was only 10%, so the contempt of various manufacturers was justified, but now, they have improved their performance, and various manufacturers still refuse to buy! A deep-rooted impression has been formed in their minds: domestic goods are just not as good as imported goods! In fact, the performance of our lithography machine has reached the world's advanced level!

"Okay, then we'll buy two." Qin Feng said: "How much do you plan to sell one?" ”

A few words to purchase? Professor Xu couldn't believe his ears, after all, there were several companies that had said that they wanted to purchase, but in the end, they still couldn't do it.

Seeing Professor Xu flutes there, Yang Zhenjun hurriedly pushed him: "Mr. Qin asked about the price." ”

"500,000 units." Professor Xu said.

Foreign purchases, need millions of dollars for one unit, or a backward model, and here, only 500,000 units.

Qin Feng took out the checkbook, wrote down a few words in a smug manner, then tore it out and handed it to Professor Xu.

"One million, two in total."

Professor Xu's eyes widened and he didn't dare to answer: "Mr. Qin, this hasn't gotten the machine yet, do you give too much, just give a deposit first." ”

"Deposit? You don't seem to have any extra money, but if I only pay a deposit, can you produce it? ”

When he said this, the faces of those present were red-faced.

"Thank you, Mr. Qin." Professor Xu took it respectfully: "Don't worry, we will definitely produce the machine as soon as possible and hand it over to you." By the way, you just said that the idea that we want to be publicly displayed at the exhibition is not good? ”

If you want the outside world to know the R&D level of the lithography machine in the East, it is the most suitable to display it publicly!

Qin Feng nodded: "Of course it's not good, our machine is at the world's advanced level, think about it, at the exhibition, if foreigners want to ask specific technical questions inside, do you answer them, or don't you answer them?" ”

Foreigners are uneasy and kind, seeing such an advanced lithography machine in the East, they will definitely come up and ask questions, if we don't answer, they will say that the data of our lithography machine is fake, if we answer, they will learn it!

Especially those island people, their machinery and equipment are not as advanced as ours, they asked clearly about the technical principles of our machines, and then imitated them, and then sold them to us at a high price!

Professor Xu frowned, this is really a problem, if it is according to the previous law, it must be known, but now that Mr. Qin reminded him, he found the problem.

"Moreover, if foreigners find out that we have such advanced lithography machines, then the ban on Batumi will be lifted, and their advanced lithography machines will also be sold, and at that time, our own lithography machines will not be able to be sold."

As soon as this sentence came out, Yang Zhenjun felt the cold sweat on his back whizzing out, yes, why didn't he think of it?

When we don't have it, foreigners will restrict us and hinder us from obtaining advanced technology, and when we make great efforts to develop it, foreigners will dump their equivalent equipment over! Judging from the behavior of this group of compradors in China, when the time comes, they will definitely rush to buy foreign equipment, and they will still not be able to sell it!

It is the stupidest thing to open an exhibition and show your lithography machine!

"Mr. Qin, what do you say we should do?" Yang Zhenjun asked, the Pacific Group is like a fish in water in the market, and it must have figured out all these doorways, now listen to what Mr. Qin has to say.

"Let's continue to concentrate on research, since the 1 micron has come out, then the next is 0.8 microns, or even 0.5 microns, we continue to develop new processes, and then use these processes to create advanced chips, and when we use the world's first-class technology to create advanced chips, we will naturally let the world know that we have made great progress in the field of chip manufacturing, and domestic manufacturers will also realize the maturity of our independent research and development process, so as to purchase our equipment."

1 micron is already an advanced process, even in 89 years, Intel's 486 processor was released, using a 1 micron process, after entering the nineties, Intel is tired of this name is also used by other manufacturers, in order to distinguish, renamed Pentium processor, only to use 0.8 micron process.

If we continue to invest in the research and development of more advanced production technology, we will be able to catch up with the world's advanced level!

Looking at the one million check in his hand, Professor Xu's brows furrowed, and after hesitating for a long time, he still said: "Mr. Qin, if you want to continue to improve technology, you need huge R&D funds, and our million is not enough to spend." ”

If you have to build two lithography machines for this million, you can leave a profit of 500,000 at most, what is 500,000 enough? Grinding a few advanced optical lenses is almost enough.

"If you are short of funds, our Pacific Group can provide it!" Qin Feng said: "This is all for the strength of our chips, and the money that should be spent must be spent!" ”

"Mr. Qin, thank you for your support, but we can't ask for your money for no reason, your Pacific Group is a private enterprise, you can donate hundreds of thousands, if you invest millions or even tens of millions, where are we embarrassed." Professor Xu said.

The research and development of advanced lithography machines requires a huge investment! Hundreds of thousands of countries, not to mention the country, they can raise it in universities, but unfortunately this money is not enough, millions, or even tens of millions!

"Or, just like Huang Lao and them, the R&D team of your lithography machine will join our Pacific Group, so that in our group, you can be justified with money, and we can also support the development of our country's chip industry." After Qin Feng finished speaking, he glanced at Huang Lao: "Huang Lao, what do you think?" ”

Huang Lao knew that it was time for her to come forward.

"Yes, Lao Yang, Lao Xu, I think Mr. Qin's proposal is very good." Huang Lao spoke: "You know, our Institute of Computing of the Chinese Academy of Sciences cut the large-scale integrated circuit project because of financial problems, and the big guys were very disappointed at that time, and they couldn't continue to develop chips, and our country's chips had no future. Now, more than 50 former chip R&D personnel have joined the Pacific Group, and everyone is working hard to make a big move. If you want to continue to develop lithography machines, you can also take this path and join the Pacific Group, you can enjoy the investment of the Pacific Group, and the products developed can also be digested by the Pacific Group. You just have to do your research, and you don't have to worry about anything else. ”

I said a lot earlier, but in fact, this last sentence is useful.

The foreign scientific research model is mature, scientists invent a certain technology, get a certain patent, there will be a corresponding enterprise to acquire, scientists get money, can continue to engage in research, do not have to worry about other things.

And what about domestic? Scientists have invented advanced technology, and no company has come to the door, and if this technology wants to be transformed into the market, then the scientist has to become an entrepreneur, open a business by himself, turn advanced technology into a product by himself, and then have to find a way to sell it.

Now, Qin Feng has stepped forward, scientists only need to engage in scientific research, and the rest will be left to the Pacific Group to operate!

Professor Xu and Yang Zhenjun glanced at each other, then nodded.

"Okay, let's listen to Mr. Qin's arrangement!"

Qin Feng was also excited in his heart, he didn't spend money to buy the previous patent, and fooled the whole team to the Pacific Group, after that, this team will grow rapidly and develop a world-class lithography machine, what ASML, what Nikon, all follow behind! We only need to grasp a few key points in the development of lithography machines, and we can get rid of them!

To engage in a chip production line, only a lithography machine is not enough, starting from the wafer factory, all the way to the later packaging and testing, a series of equipment is required, but after all, this is a good start!

Whatever is available in China, we will purchase it from the country, and if it is not mature, we will make it mature! Anyway, the design of Loongson will take a long time, as long as our production line can be debugged after Loongson is developed.

Among them, it will definitely cost a lot of money, so for Qin Feng, the next task is to make money!

Back at the Chocolate Building, Qin Feng told Zhao Jiao about his new arrangements, so he didn't have to worry about it next, just let Zhao Jiao take care of it. This kind of meticulous work is best done by women.

Just as he was thinking about how to continue making money, the phone rang.

"Hey, Sister Xiaofang, the 80,000-ton die forging press has been built?"

Zhao Jiao's words were full of excitement, and while answering, she went to look at Qin Feng and found that Qin Feng had already picked up the car keys from the table.

"I'll go to Jincheng to have a look."

80,000 tons of die forging press! It was built in such a short time, and in this kind of basic industrial construction, the East has already developed!

If you want to engage in 80,000 tons of die forging press, in fact, it is not difficult, after all, if you want to increase the pressure, then more hydraulic cylinders, as long as the machine can withstand it, this thing is not too high in nature, it requires a high investment, as long as there is money, you can make it.

The Audi car was left to the director of the Ge factory, Santana gave Zhao Jiao as a means of transportation, Qin Feng often drove a warrior car, and as for the Cherokee, it is now said to be used as a tool car, and the back seat was removed, and it was often used by Xing Fuqiang to load various parts.

Qin Feng drove a mighty and domineering warrior car all the way to Jincheng, and finally came to the steel factory in the evening of the same day.

In the tall building, the huge machine stands majestically, the height of the ground alone is 27 meters, if you follow the three meters of one floor, this is equivalent to nine floors, and there are 15 meters underground, and the person standing in front of the machine looks very small.

At this time, several people were hanging a banner in the center of the huge machine, with a few big words written on it: Warmly celebrate the official completion of the 80,000-ton die forging press!

"Mr. Qin!" Seeing Qin Feng coming in, He Ming immediately greeted him: "The machine has been built, but it needs to be tested next, and it will be debugged in the process of testing." ”

"Well, when you test it, do you need to roll something?" Qin Feng asked.

"Yes, the steelmaking furnace of our steel mill has been coordinated, and the billets are made and sent over, and we roll them here." After He Ming finished speaking, he glanced at the top of his head: "Our crane has also been installed in place, when the machine is installed, it is used to lift machine parts, and when it is time for production, it can lift the blank." ”

A lifting weight of 700 tons is more than enough.

"By the way, the kit that can press thick-walled seamless steel pipes has also been built, right?"

"Yes, it's already done."

"Then install this kit, and let's press a few thick-walled seamless steel pipes out first."

"Okay." Zhou Minghui on the side nodded: "I also want to see the power of this 80,000-ton die forging press, and the seamless steel pipe that used to be produced by complex processes can now be easily made!" Now, we urgently need this advanced steel ...... in China"
