Citi Country.

New Yue City.

Zhao Yuanjie from the CVC Foundation came to the NK Building.

As mentioned before, NK was one of the three chip giants at that time. Nokia and Motorola's mobile phone chips were all from NK.

Zhao Yuanjie came to NK to talk about lithography machines. Lithography machines are used to make chips. To make chips, first of all, we must carve many patterns on the surface of the silicon wafer. Without a lithography machine, we cannot carve patterns on it.

In addition, there is a set of EDA software, which is tailor-made for chip design. Just developing this software uses billions of magnesium coins.

Zhao Yuanjie and NK's vice president Tonis had agreed to sell the second generation of lithography machines eliminated by NK to the CVC Foundation half a year ago.

For this reason, Zhao Yuanjie, no, it should be said that it was Lin Bufan who gave NK a great benefit. He took NK to buy shares of Coca-Cola and Yahu, and sold it when it reached its highest point. NK made at least 500 million.

Magnesium coins.

When he arrived at Tonis' office, Zhao Yuanjie communicated smoothly in English.

The two of them first made some polite decisions. Tonis is a white man, tall and big, in his 40s. He is the youngest vice president of NK and is in charge of investment business.

"MR Zhao, I know the purpose of your visit this time, but it's very difficult. Our NK wants to sell you the second generation of lithography machine, but the senior management disagrees, and we have no choice."

When Zhao Yuanjie heard this, he couldn't sit still, "Didn't we agree that it's okay? How can we go back on our word? It's just an eliminated second-generation lithography machine. Within 20 years, we have no ability to make lithography machines. The senior management has

What can you panic?" Zhao Yuanjie said seriously.

"MR Zhao, you should also be very clear that chips are related to the country's technology and are under control. We originally thought it would be okay to sell the eliminated ones to you, but we don't know who leaked it. Anyway,

The senior management already knows that there is no way. Even if we sell you privately, you will not be able to bring you out." Tonis looked like you were like what you wanted.

Zhao Yuanjie can see that NK is afraid that later generations will come. Suddenly, Zhao Yuanjie felt that Lin Bufan's decision was stupid.

NK is a chip-producing company, so how could it sell something so important to lithography machines to other companies?

At that time, including now, lithography machines and high-end scientific research were interconnected between alliance countries, or between awesome companies and awesome companies, and were blocked for other countries and companies.

Lin Bufan also considered the reason why he chose NK. One is that the performance of NK lithography machines is the best, and the other is that the wife of Michael King, chairman of NK, is Chinese.

A year ago, when Lin Bufan came to Citiland, he visited Michael King.

After going to Michael King's house, I knew that his wife was originally Chinese and had a Chinese name - Cheng Xiaoxiao.

Lin Bufan naturally would not go empty-handed, and brought a full green imperial jade bracelet worth at least 500 W. Cheng Xiaoxiao was about 35 years old, which was 30 years younger than Michael Jin.

Seeing the bracelet's eyes shining, Lin Bufan took the opportunity to climb up the relationship and said that he hoped to have more contact with his wife and learn from her in the future.

Half a year passed in a blink of an eye. Lin Bufan called Cheng Xiaoxiao and talked about the lithography machine, hoping that Cheng Xiaoxiao could talk to Michael King.

Cheng Xiaoxiao agreed immediately, and Lin Bufan asked Zhao Yuanjie to leave Cheng Xiaoxiao's cruise ship worth at least 30 million magnesium coins.

When Zhao Yuanjie reported the lithography machine to Lin Bufan.

Lin Bufan was stunned and said angrily: "Has NK Company changed its mind?"

In the future, chip technology has built the factory and assembly line, and is waiting for the lithography machine.

Now that the lithography machine does not have it, isn’t it just that the firewood is burning, you say there is no rice.

This made Lin Bufan's eyes turn white.

Li Zaixu was also on the side. Even he was not able to create a lithography machine. He is a talent for chip design and research and development. The lithography machine is the crystallization of wisdom of thousands of people. A lithography machine gathers several

A country, hundreds of patents.

It’s not impossible to independently develop a lithography machine. It will take at least 10 years, and it will cost hundreds of billions of dollars, and it will also have full support from technical talents.

"Is there no room for maneuver?" Lin Bufan asked.

Zhao Yuanjie sighed and said bluntly: "Boss, I heard from Tonis that NK never wanted to sell us the lithography machine from the beginning."

"Damn..." Lin Bufan swears, feeling very angry, but what can he do?

After hanging up the phone, Lin Bufan struggled.

Where should I go to build a lithography machine?

"Zaixu, don't tell anyone about lithography machines first, I will find a way!" Lin Bufan said.

Li Zaixu suddenly thought of something and said, "Boss, have you heard of Wuliang Electronics?"

"Infinite Electronics?" Lin Bufan's mind was running rapidly.

Wuliang Electronics is a company in the Netherlands and the first company to develop chips and assemble lithography machines.

But for some reason, Wuliang Electronics suddenly went bankrupt, and then an ASM company in the Netherlands replaced Wuliang Electronics.

As for ASM, Lin Bufan is sure to know that behind this company is the support of Taiwan-level electric power, Intel and Shanxing, and it is also the top lithography machine manufacturing company at present and in the future.

"If we can find the founders of Wuliang Electronics, then maybe we can develop lithography machines independently. If we are lucky, we might be able to pull a few lithography machines back directly." Li Zaixu said.

Lin Bufan felt a little dizzy when he heard it.

Lee Jae-xu told me what he knew. Among the founders of Wuliang Electronics, there was a man named Daniel Cheng, who was a classmate of Lee Jae-xu when he was in college. Lee Jae-xu and Daniel Cheng both studied for a PhD at California Institute of Technology.

Both of them took the electronic system route. Li Zaixu went to develop chips and Daniel Cheng developed lithography machines. Instead of developing chips, it is better to keep the source. This is Daniel Cheng's idea.

Daniel City is a Dutch Chinese. After returning to China, he formed Wuliang Electronics Studio. He is a genius among geniuses, and his team is all elites, so he quickly made achievements on the lithography machine.

He was once favored by the outside world, saying that he was a star who changed the future technology.

But I don’t know when it started, Wuliang Electronics suddenly fell sharply and finally went bankrupt for no reason. The house area and studio were sealed off, but it has not been unblocked yet.
