September 8th, the third day after the Zhiwei lithography machine was officially announced.

A small chip design company in China, Shuofang Company.

Their purchasing director and founder Liu Quan is sitting at his desk, facing the person in front of him with an arrogant expression.

That's the account manager of synopsys, He Wen.

The other party's demeanor changed from the previous domineering one, and instead became extremely humble.

"Mr. Liu, based on the current situation, although your company has purchased Yinglong EDA from Micro Fusion Company, it has not actually started using it. Therefore, according to the agreement in the rejection list, your company can still use our EDA.

"

"I have applied with the company leaders before and made greater concessions to the business that can be given to you. Now, you only need to spend less than 50% of the original price to use the full set of functions of our EDA."

"I believe that this price is very competitive even in front of Yinglong Eda. Do you need to think about it again?"

Liu Quan listened to the other party's words casually, secretly feeling a little funny.

Just two days ago, when he met this person, the other person still questioned his decision to purchase Yinglong EDA without hesitation. He was full of superiority in his words, as if he had done it himself.

It's like something treasonous.

Are your synopsys products really that useful?

This is pure fart!

Compared to Yinglong Eda, synopsys Eda is just a younger brother.

If it weren't for the rejection list, who would be willing to buy the expensive and difficult-to-use synopsys eda?

After seeing so many large manufacturers choosing Yinglong, I already understood what the official meant.

At that time, the authorities actually had a showdown. However, people who are not familiar with the domestic environment and the official way of doing things have difficulty understanding the profound meaning. They only think that it is a broken pot that needs financial subsidies.

But he is a veteran, and every step of his fortune was due to correctly guessing the official rhythm.

When have officials ever fought an unprepared battle?

So just follow without thinking.

If you don’t trust Huaji, don’t you still trust the official?

As it turns out, his experience helped him once again.

If it really doesn't work, let Wuling also modify the production line and make some accessories that can be made.

After all, Wuling can make whatever the people need, including masks. It’s not difficult to make some special bolts, shells, etc., right?

We don’t want more, just seventeen or eight units in one month, which should be enough in China.

Thinking of this, a playful smile appeared on Liu Quan's face.

After clearing his throat, he said:

"Lao He, we have been friends for a long time. I have been in contact with you since I started the company. Let me ask you, what are your plans for the future?"

He Wen was stunned by his words, and then became confused involuntarily.

yes!

What are my plans for the future?

Unlike other devils with yellow skin and white hearts, the reason why He Wen works in Synopsys China is really just to earn a living. After all, he still has children to raise at home, and Synopsys's high income can give him a stable life.

But now, such a stable life obviously no longer exists!

Don’t call synopsys a company

It’s time to make plans for yourself!

After a moment of silence, he took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and motioned to Liu Quan:

"Have one?"

"Let's get one straight."

The two men lit up cigarettes, and as the smoke filled the air, He Wen said:

"To be honest, I have no hope of selling anything to you when I come here today. It's just a formality. What you said makes sense. I really should find a way out for myself, Zhi Weiguang

Once the engraving machine is released, it will fundamentally change the world's technological landscape."

"Although synopsys looks awesome, it is actually just a small software company. It cannot withstand this kind of impact... By the way, Mr. Liu, do you have a good place to go?"

Liu Quan smiled slightly and replied:

"Two options. Either go to Micro Fusion, or come to me. What about? If you come to me, I guarantee that the price will be no less than synopsys."

“So generous??”

He Fang asked in surprise.

"What's this... I'm not afraid to tell you. Yinglong Eda is easy to use, but it also has a disadvantage, which is the cost of learning. We are in urgent need of a skilled person to guide our engineers quickly

Get started.”

"As for you, you have a technical background and have been working in sales for several years, but I know that you are good at the job you are doing. In addition, you are good at dealing with people. It would be better for you to be in charge of those engineers who are inherently stubborn.

But it’s too late.”

"Come on, give me a quick word, do you want to do it? I can tell you clearly that if you get on this train, you will be much more comfortable than if you work at synopsys for a few more years!"

The cigarette in his hand gradually burned to the end. He Fang felt the heat of the sparks and slowly put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray.

After another few seconds of silence, a deep roar came from his throat.

"Fuck, done it!"

...

On this day, all domestic chip design companies, as if they had made an appointment, began to post job recruitment information frantically on major recruitment websites, and these information pointed to those who had already resigned, or were about to leave, from Western chip-related companies.

Huaxia employees.

Just as a large number of engineers switched jobs when Zhongxing was involved in the accident, the same situation now occurs in Western companies represented by synopsys.

The advent of microlithography machines is a shot in the arm and a wake-up call.

These Chinese people who have devoted themselves to Western manufacturers have finally found their true direction.

For a time, Western companies in the major chip industry chains were in turmoil.
