Chapter 175: Once Upon a Time in Windows
"For the future of the semiconductor industry, the industry has always had a very clear judgment, after all, Mr. Moore's golden mouth is there - the core technology of the future should be lithography equipment. ”
Lin Benjian laughed, thinking deeply.
"But our judgment should be more precise, or more detailed, and we believe that the future process technology will be difficult in the light source part, or the specific point is in the microshadow part. Su Yuanshan took a sip of coffee and looked at Lin Benjian again: "That's why we chose to acquire Lingchuang." ”
Lin Benjian slowly fell into deep thought.
Although he has always been obsessed with technology, as he said, as long as he is engaged in semiconductors, he will definitely know about Yuanxin and Xinghai.
When Xinghai Venture Capital contacted him on behalf of Yuanxin, he carefully collected Yuanxin's information.
Then he found that Yuanxin had never suffered defeat since its rise.
And although it seems to be all about luck, behind the luck, it has always been driven by technology.
It's scary – it means they always seem to be on the right path.
Now, Su Yuanshan said, they judge that the key node of the manufacturing process in the semiconductor field in the future will be in micro-shadow technology, which is the field he is good at.
"Actually, I also think that the difficulty in the future lies in the micro-shadow technology. Lin Benjian said slowly: "But at present, it seems that many people don't want to believe it, they just think that as long as they build a DUV, they can do it." I've also been in charge of DUV, so I know that DUV has a limit after all. The most important thing is how to push the limit of deep ultraviolet light to the limit through technical means. ”
"So our understanding is unanimous. Su Yuanshan said with a smile: "At present, although the light source technology is moving faster in the west, the microshadow technology is mainly concentrated on the side of the Ni Kingdom. Therefore...... Mr. Lim, I hope you will accept my suggestion and let's work towards a common understanding. ”
Lin Benjian was silent again, and after a few seconds he suddenly asked, "What about the mainland? Why don't you invest in the mainland?"
“...... There is no expert like you in the mainland. Su Yuanshan sighed sincerely.
Lin Benjian immediately waved his hand, and was even a little shy: "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be." ”
Su Yuanshan smiled and said, "Deserve it, Mr. Lin, shouldn't we talk about the value of Lingchuang?"
Lin Benjian glanced at Su Yuanshan deeply, and finally nodded slowly.

After waving goodbye to Lin Benjian, Su Yuanshan and Qin Si returned to the car.
Fastening his seat belt, Qin Si was not busy starting the car, but turned his head to look at Su Yuanshan, who had already adjusted his seat and was ready to take a nap in a comfortable position.
"Sister Qin Si, I don't have flowers on my face. Su Yuanshan felt that Qin Si was looking at him, and he also smiled sideways.
"Is Lingchuang worth so much money?" Qin Si was puzzled.
Lin Benjian only spent $5 million to establish Lingchuang? Now a year? Su Yuanshan directly multiplied him tenfold.
50 million dollars in Silicon Valley at this time? I can already do a lot of business.
"Lingchuang is not worth anything? Lin Benjian is valuable. ”
At this time, Qin Si was even more puzzled, and paused and said, "I'm not...... There is an opinion about the elderly. But an old man in his early fifties...... Even if you work until you are 70 years old? Also ......"
Listening to Qin Siqi's "discrimination", Su Yuanshan laughed.
He knew that Qin Si was influenced by the energetic young people and young businesses in Silicon Valley? led to a misunderstanding of her understanding of age and technology.
After thinking about it? Su Yuanshan said very seriously: "Sister Qin Si, what you said is not much of a problem in the field of pure science. This is especially true in the field of intellectual competition. With so many Nobel laureates, most of their contributions were made when they were young. ”
"More in the field of mathematics? The vast majority of math gurus have achieved their achievements before the age of 35. ”
Qin Si nodded? Hmmm.
"But if it's a 'technology' field, especially one that is more engineering-oriented, it's not necessarily the case. Lin Benjian is an old engineer, and he has rich and valuable experience, which is his value. It's like the legendary Shaolin sweeping monk - don't you look at martial arts?"
Qin Si smiled and shook his head.
"Anyway? Lao Lin can lead a team, and what is he good at? It is indeed what we need. Su Yuanshan finally said.
Talking about Lin Benjian is only the first step, and there are still many processes to be completed. But this doesn't need Su Yuanshan to continue to follow up? Chen Jing is already preparing to leave, and she will arrive on the first day of the show.
Let Chen Jing fly around with him? There really is no way to do it. Now the only people who can represent Yuanxin administratively are his father and Chen Jing? And it was obviously impossible for his father to go abroad at the same time as him.
The car is parked in front of the Microsoft gate? After announcing his name, Su Yuanshan swaggered in.
......
Mr. Gates has left the programmer stage, because when Su Yuanshan walked into his office, his coffee had just been brewed.
"Sue, you came at the right time. Mr. Gates held two empty cups and raised them at Su Yuanshan.
"I really don't believe Your Excellency didn't make me an extra cup. ”
Su Yuanshan sat down with a smile and said a long and complicated sentence.
Mr. Gates laughed when he heard this, poured coffee for Su Yuanshan, and then sat down opposite him.
Every time he comes to Xinghai, Su Yuanshan will come to Microsoft to sit down, talk about his words, and exchange feelings.
In fact, any company in Silicon Valley is open to Su Yuanshan - after all, this is Silicon Valley, where technology is a myth.
From Su Yuanshan's chip design capabilities in Las Vegas, to the open-source programs he signed, and then from the sentence "dissatisfied" that circulated from the EDA project team, Su Yuanshan has long been labeled as a "genius".
Genius, or the kind of genius who is approachable and likes to compliment people - who doesn't like that?
Anyway, Mr. Gates likes it very much.
"I envy your retirement. Su Yuanshan couldn't help but sigh when he saw that the office was full of enjoyment.
"I'm not retired. Gates shrugged: "I'm just looking at the lads more." ”
"Your Excellency's lads are really good. Su Yuanshan glanced back and smiled: "I'm afraid your next-generation operating system is about to come out, right?"
Gates laughed, shook his head, and said, "It's still early!"
"Can you trouble your boys to hurry up?"
Gates was slightly stunned and looked at Su Yuanshan with a smile.
He likes Su Yuanshan, and another very important reason is that Su Yuanshan never thought of getting involved in the desktop operating system.
Now he's tired of apples — with or without Jobs' apples. If Su Yuanshan, who is also known as a genius, comes to intervene, he will go crazy.
Ten years ago, Steve Jobs was inspired by Xerox's graphical interface computer, Xerox Star, to release the graphical interface operating system Lisa OS, and then Gates also announced that he would develop a graphical interface operating system for Windows. But at that time, Apple was a giant compared to Microsoft, and the arrogant Jobs sent someone to call Gates to Apple's headquarters and berate Mr. Gates in front of everyone (Apple's Macintosh team members), saying that he was a thief and stealing their things.
At that time, Gates was very calm and said the rebuttal line that later became a classic Silicon Valley rebuttal.
- "We all have a rich neighbor named Xerox, and when I broke into their house to steal the TV, I found that you had stolen it. ”
And it wasn't until two years later, in '85, that when Steve Jobs was kicked out of Apple, Microsoft immediately released Windows 1.0.
As a lesson from the past, Gates does not want people like Su Yuanshan to become his opponents.
