Chapter 266
"Huang Sang, our board of directors has already held a meeting to discuss, as long as you are willing to sell all your patents to us, then we are willing to accept your offer of 800 million US dollars and sell you 10 200nm lithography machines, and immediately Delivery!" That afternoon, after seeing the yellow crane, Makoto Kimura said immediately.
This morning, after an emergency meeting between Makoto Kimura and the directors of the board of directors, it was decided that in order to obtain more than 100 patents in the hands of Huang He, the price of 800 million US dollars per unit was recognized.
Nikon as a whole promised very straightforwardly, so it seems that it will save tens of millions of dollars in this way, but with these patents in hand, Nikon can strangle ASML to death. Start the research and development of immersion lithography machines, and in the future, we will be able to produce immersion lithography machines ahead of ASML, so that the entire lithography machine industry will be dominated by Nikon in the future.
A mere loss of tens of millions of dollars has such an effect, worth it!
In fact, the cost of a piece of Nikon equipment is only about 500 million, and the price of 800 million US dollars can still earn 300 million US dollars. Do you think Nikon is really losing money?
Hearing this result, Huang He finally showed a smile on his face and said, "Mr. Kimura, I am very happy with your attitude, but I am afraid that this 200nm lithography machine will be outdated in less than 2 years. This is just an emergency. As a strategy, I hope that Jiangnan can still have some convenience in purchasing immersion lithography machines in the future, after all, these technologies are also produced by our Jiangnan Group!"
"This..." Makoto Kimura hesitated, "Huang Sang, although I am very happy to sell our first batch of immersion lithography machines to you, but according to the constraints of the agreement, I cannot sell the most advanced lithography machine equipment to you." For you, otherwise this is a violation of the agreement, and the United States will impose sanctions on us."
"Don't worry, I've already considered this point!" Huang He smiled slightly, "You don't need to sell it to me directly. In the future, I will set up a chip manufacturer in Southeast Asia, and I will purchase from you through that manufacturer." Yes, nominally this manufacturer will not have any relationship with our Jiangnan Group, we will only purchase chips from this manufacturer, so don’t worry about any violation of the Paris agreement!”
"Even if things happen in the future, it's just that I keep you in the dark!" Huang He said with a smile.
"Well..." Makoto Kimura was still a little hesitant. Although Huang He's routine could avoid the sanctions of the Paris Agreement, they would not feel comfortable if the Americans were serious.
"Don't worry, the United States is a free country. As long as we can't find anything wrong with the law, the United States must be free. Don't you believe in the integrity of the United States?" Huang He asked with a smile.
"Okay!" Hearing Huang's words, Makoto Kimura nodded involuntarily.After all, the world order is designed by the Americans. It is impossible for the Americans to take the lead in violating the trade order designed by themselves.
In the next three days, Huang He was negotiating cooperation with Makoto Kimura. In the end, the two parties decided that Nikon would sell 800 lithography machines to Jiangnan Group at a price of 10 million U.S. dollars, within three months. Complete the delivery.
At the same time, Jiangnan sold more than 1 patents in his hands to the Nikon Group at a price of US$000 million.
This is an agreement signed by the two parties in name, but secretly, Huang He also signed a secret agreement with Kimura Makoto, that is, Nikon guarantees to sell the first batch of immersion lithography machines to a foreign-funded enterprise designated by Huang He, and at the same time In the future, Nikon and Jiangnan Group will maintain close cooperation and communicate with each other.
Of course, this is a secret agreement, which is actually not binding. After all, it is impossible for this agreement to be exposed.
However, in terms of credit, the Japanese are at least more reliable than the Americans, and even if the credit is not discussed, Kimura Makoto is unlikely to offend a future big customer like the Jiangnan Group, so Huang He is not worried about this secret agreement at all. Are there any implementation issues.
Moreover, when Huang He revealed that he had encountered some difficulties in chip research and development, Makoto Kimura also said very boldly that when the technicians debug the lithography machine, they will arrange for several experts in the chip field to go. It is not known what the experts in the field will do in the south of the Yangtze River, but it is certainly not the case that nothing will be left behind.
In this way, Huang He's mission in Japan was considered a perfect success, but unfortunately, Huang He didn't have time to stay in Japan for a long time. As soon as the contract was signed, he immediately brought Hu Jing back to China.
"Chairman, I am a little bit unwilling to sell these patents that we have worked so hard to develop to those Japanese..." On the plane back, Hu Jing said rather unwillingly.
"It's useless to be unwilling. Who made it impossible for us to have the technology to develop an immersion lithography machine?" Huang He sighed and said, "If we can develop such a lithography machine ourselves, then I will definitely It is impossible to transfer these patents."
"But why don't we cooperate with ASML?" Hu Jing asked puzzledly, "Although ASML had a problem with our attitude before, they are Dutch companies anyway, which is much better than working with Japanese companies! I Think, if we throw out these patents, ASML will definitely change his attitude immediately and beg to cooperate with us!"
"You're wrong!" Huang He shook his head, "ASML is already cooperating with TSMC, and now TSMC is the world's largest chip manufacturer, so ASML's first batch of immersion lithography machines must be sold to For TSMC, even if we provide patents, they will give priority to TSMC when it is time to deliver.”
"Why?"
"Just because TSMC is a dog of the United States, we are not!" Huang He said lightly, "So we have given the patent, but still can't get the latest equipment, isn't it the most stupid in the world?"
"In addition, if we also support ASML, then ASML will definitely dominate the market, and one person will control all the sources of immersion lithography machines. At that time, we will determine what price he wants to sell. How much do you have to pay, do you still think he is a good thing for the company?"
"I understand, but I feel upset when I see Little Japan benefiting!" Hu Jing said with a sigh.
"It's okay. Little Japan may benefit this time, but they won't get too much profit, because the attitude and will of the United States to suppress Japan's semiconductor industry is very firm. Nikon gave priority to the immersion lithography machine, but it will With stronger suppression from the United States, their life will not be too easy!"
"So at that time, they need us as a customer even more. Americans don't buy their equipment, and they don't let their dogs buy Nikon equipment. Nikon can only sell these equipment to us, and they dare not Sell at a high price, or he will lose the few customers he has."
"So, we need to muddy the pool of water. The more manufacturers selling lithography machines in the world, the more intense the competition will be. We will have more opportunities and technologies in the future. When we have the technical strength, we can get When we use our own lithography machine, it will be a different world!" Huang He smiled slightly, and Hu Jing, who was beside him, finally understood the great talent in Huang He's heart, and showed admiration on his face.

"Everyone get ready, pressurize the container and increase it to 5000 units!" In a fully enclosed, dust-free laboratory, a group of people in dustproof suits are nervously operating the equipment.
And in the very center of this laboratory, there is another container protected by layers of isolation. This container is connected by countless pipelines. The whole scene is like a science fiction novel.
Well, this is indeed one of the most sci-fi places in the world, and it is also a world-class material laboratory built by Boss Huang with all his efforts.
Unfortunately, due to insufficient money, this laboratory is not considered the top laboratory, but it is definitely the top laboratory in China.
"Director, the container is still stable and can continue to be pressurized!"
"Very good, another 1000 units!"
"Still stable."
"Continue to increase the pressure, this time directly increase to 8000 units!"
"No, the container has changed a bit, and I'm afraid it can't hold it anymore."
"Add directly to [-]!"
"Director, this is too dangerous, the equipment is at risk of destruction."
"But the previous 8000 units of pressure caused incomplete fusion. I have a feeling that as long as we continue to pressurize, we can get the gift from the Jade Emperor!" The director licked his lips and said, "It doesn't matter, you continue to pressurize, If it breaks, buy another one!"
"Yes!" The experimenters said helplessly, and then continued to pressurize it as required.
As a result, when the pressure gauge reached about 11, the entire container suddenly jumped violently. Although the director made a decisive decision and ordered to stop the pressurization, it was too late, and the entire container exploded directly. The bombardment hit the high-strength glass on the periphery of the laboratory container, and as a result, the entire glass burst instantly.
Then all these fragments hit the second layer of glass, and the result was still that they all exploded.
In this way, the originally designed five layers of glass were blasted layer by layer, and finally the outermost layer of glass was also smashed. Several nearby experimenters screamed on the spot, and their bodies were covered with glass shards.
And the exploded container directly hit the wall of the laboratory. Fortunately, the inside of the wall is protected by alloy armor, so the wall is fine, but a dent was also smashed out. By the way, a piece of nearby equipment was also destroyed. It was smashed.
"What's going on? What happened?" Other staff from outside the laboratory quickly rushed in, and then saw the tragedy inside the laboratory.
There were originally 6 staff members in the laboratory, but now 4 of them are all covered in blood and lying on the ground, with all kinds of glass shards stuck on their bodies. If they were not wearing protective clothing, the impact force would be consumed by 5 layers of defense measures It's almost the same, their bodies will even be pierced directly.
"Save people! Save people quickly!" The staff who rushed in immediately rescued the injured experimenters, and the only two uninjured people in the laboratory slowly stood up.
"Director, let's go first, this place is too dangerous!" A person said in fear, but the director suddenly ignored him, and he rushed directly to the core area of the explosion, passing through the layers of shattered glass slag, Then at the very center, where the container was originally placed, I began to search for something.
"Director, it's too dangerous. If the chief engineer knows what happened to you, then the future of our Jiangnan will be lost!" Several staff members said nervously.
"I found it, I found it!" Suddenly, the director took off the glove on his hand, and then carefully picked up a small black shard the size of a fingernail from the ground.
This is a bright crystal like black glass.
[PS: Cough cough, this is not to open black technology, but to open lucky value]
