Chapter 534 Immersion Lithography Machine
After Lin Feng hung up Zou Ming's phone call, he leaned back on the back of the chair, closed his eyes slightly, and thought about Bill's situation in his mind.

In the previous life, Lin Feng also learned about the legendary richest man in the world through the news.

Knowing that Bill seems to have no rules for what he does, but when he looks back at his actions at the end, he finds that this man has already done a lot of preparations before every action.

Lin Feng did not believe that the alliance between Bill and Buffett was very strong.

Therefore, Lin Feng believed that Bill would never place all his hopes on Buffett, and that the other party must have his own backup.

While Lin Feng was worried about Bill's secret actions, Wu Bo, the owner of Qilin Company in Jinling, was full of excitement.

In Wu Bo's office, Wu Bo and Li Zhong sat facing each other across the desk.

"You mean, Star Group is willing to cooperate with us?"

Wu Bo's eyes widened, and he looked at Li Zhong opposite him in disbelief.

When he heard the news that Li Zhong brought back from Binhai, he couldn't believe it.

Although it is true that Xingkong Group does not have a great advantage in establishing a chip processing factory, it cannot bear the strength of Xingkong Group.

Once Starry Sky Group gets out, it needs to find a partner on the chip.

Wu Bo believes that many domestic chip processing factories will come to their door and kneel and lick to seek cooperation with Star Group.

Seeing the expression on Wu Bo's face, Li Zhong felt a little bit of complacency in his heart, and it was rare to see Wu Bo showing such an expression.

"Boss, don't you believe me?"

"Anyway, I can be regarded as Lin Feng's uncle in name, and he still wants to listen to me."

When Wu Bo heard Li Zhong's words, his eyes shrank slightly.

Although he used Li Zhong's identity to let Li Zhong contact and discuss cooperation with Lin Feng before, he felt in his heart that the probability of Li Zhong's success was not very high.

But now hearing Li Zhong's words, it seems that Lin Feng really cooperates with Qilin Company because the other party is Lin Feng's uncle.

Thinking of this, Wu Bo's face was immediately filled with a kind smile, and he stood up and walked to Li Zhong's side.

Seeing Wu Bo approaching, Li Zhong also planned to stand up quickly, but just as he was pressing the sides of the chair with both hands and was about to stand up, Wu Bo's right hand pressed on his shoulder, stopping Li Zhong's movement.

"Lao Li, you have been in the company for ten years, right?"

When Li Zhong heard Wu Bo's words, he felt a little joy in his heart. He knew that the agreement he reached with Lin Feng could take effect.

Li Zhong pretended to show a trace of panic on his face, and said: "Thank you boss for his great love for me. I have worked in Qilin Company for 12 years, three months and ten days."

When Wu Bo heard Li Zhong's words, the smile on his face became even brighter. What he was most afraid of was that Li Zhong had resentment towards him in his heart. After all, Wu Bo knew very well in his heart what he and the others had done to Li Zhong. .

But after hearing Li Zhong's answer, seeing that the other party even remembered the time when he joined the company so clearly, it can be seen that the other party is still very grateful to Kirin Company.

Wu Bo pressed Li Zhong's right hand and patted Li Zhong's shoulder lightly a few times.

"Since this is the case, do you want to repay the company?"

"It should." Li Zhong said hastily: "If the boss has any orders, just tell me, as long as I, Li Zhong, can do it, I will definitely not refuse."

Wu Bo was overjoyed, and said with a smile: "Li Zhong, I knew I was right about you. You really are a person who knows how to repay kindness."

"I need you to go to Lin Feng again and talk about the exclusive processing of chips."

Wu Bo has always been a very ambitious man, even he himself has never shy away from this.

He knew in his heart that if a man didn't even have any ambition, then if he could seize every opportunity in his life.

From Li Zhong's answer, Wu Bo saw a huge opportunity. He knew that if he could seize this opportunity, he would definitely be able to make Kirin the largest chip processing plant in China. Maybe a few more zeros to add.

Thinking of this, Wu Bo felt that Li Zhong was an angel sent to him from heaven. If he hadn't seen Li Zhong's old face with bumps and holes, Wu Bo couldn't help but want to kiss him.

After the Morgan family and Lin Feng reached a cooperation, they began to send people to the Netherlands to help the Star Group purchase the most advanced lithography machines.

This company in the Netherlands that sells top-notch lithography machines is very special. If this company wants to sell top-notch lithography machines, it needs the approval of several important shareholders, and the company's management has no right to decide.

The main reason is that the components needed for a world-class lithography machine come from all over the world. If only one country produces these components, it is simply impossible.

So this company can be said to be a combination of several multinational giants.

For some not very important instruments, their company's management can decide, but for the top-notch lithography machines in the company, and the best technology, there is no way to sell them without the authorization of shareholders.

The Morgan family did not deceive Lin Feng. Originally, the sale of a top-notch lithography machine required the consent of many shareholders, but there is also a special situation, that is, it can also be sold with the consent of the company's largest shareholder and second largest shareholder. .

Although the Morgan family was not the first few major shareholders of the company in the Netherlands, the Morgan family had a good relationship with the first two major shareholders of the company, so the Morgan family quickly settled the issue of the lithography machine.

Lin Feng never thought that the Morgan family's work efficiency was so high.

In less than a month, the lithography machine has been delivered to Binhai.

When Lin Feng read the news in his previous life, he knew that China also bought a lithography machine from the Netherlands, but due to various problems, the lithography machine was not delivered for several years.

It can be seen from this that the Morgan family is still very sincere.

Star Research Institute.

Cai Dali is leading a group of researchers around the lithography machine sent from the Netherlands in the laboratory, and several elders are carefully admiring the "artwork" in front of them.

For those technologists, this top-notch lithography machine in the world is indeed a perfect work of art.

"Cai Gong, this lithography machine seems to use the immersion system 1900."

Just as a group of people were admiring this huge artwork, suddenly a surprised voice sounded from the crowd.

When Cai Dali heard this, he quickly pushed aside the crowd and walked to the side of the person who spoke just now.

That's right, this lithography machine is actually equipped with the latest system launched in the Netherlands last year. I heard that the annual output of this system is less than ten units.

Cai Dali couldn't believe it and raised his hand to wipe his eyes. He couldn't believe that Lin Feng not only bought a lithography machine from abroad, but also the most powerful one in the world, and there are not many of them. Lithography.

"What are you all doing together?"

While Cai Dali was still in shock, a familiar voice came from behind.

When Cai Dali heard that familiar voice, a trace of excitement appeared on his face. When he turned around, he saw Lin Feng walking slowly towards them, followed by several people.

"Boss, you are here."

Cai Dali hurriedly left the crowd, and trotted to Lin Feng's side.

"Has the lithography machine arrived, is there any problem?"

Cai Dali heard Lin Feng's words and said quickly.

"The lithography machine has arrived, but we haven't had time to test it yet, so we don't know if there is any problem."

"But we just discovered that this lithography machine uses the most advanced system in the Netherlands, so everyone was shocked by the news just now."

Lin Feng heard Cai Dali's words, and asked suspiciously: "What system is it equipped with?"

Cai Dali said: "Immersion 1900 system."

When Lin Feng heard Cai Dali's words, he immediately became confused.

What the hell is this immersion 1900?

Lin Feng was also a stock player in his previous life, and he also knew that the most important technology of the lithography machine was EUV (extreme deep ultraviolet) lithography technology.

"Is this technology awesome?"

Lin Feng's words surprised Cai Dali who was standing next to him. Could it be that his boss is not satisfied with this system?

Cai Dali said slowly: "As far as the world is concerned, this technology is still top-notch."

"Because this technology theoretically allows us to advance chip technology to 7 nanometers."

When Lin Feng heard Cai Dali's words, he immediately grasped the key point.

"What about the level below 7 nanometers?"

When Cai Dali heard Lin Feng's words, a wry smile appeared on his face.

"When the whole world was racking their brains on how to break through the 193nm technology, someone proposed this immersion method, which pushed the theoretical technology of the chip to 7nm."

"Although so many years have passed, only a few countries have chip technology at 14 nanometers, and most other countries have chip technology at 72 nanometers or more."

After listening to Cai Dali's explanation, Lin Feng finally understood what this immersion system was all about. To put it simply, it was the boss before EUV came out.

But Lin Feng knows that the immersion system seems to be very powerful now, but in the future, EUV lithography technology will be an important field for the future top powers to compete with each other.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng turned his head to look at Cai Dali who was standing beside him, and asked suspiciously: "Dali, have you heard of EUV extreme deep ultraviolet lithography technology?"

When Cai Dali heard Lin Feng's words, he said suspiciously: "I've heard of this. Many experts in the industry say that if you want to advance chip technology to the top 2nm technology, you must use extreme deep ultraviolet lithography technology, otherwise If not, there is simply no way to advance the chip technology to the most advanced level.”

"If I give you enough research and development funds, can you develop this technology?"

Lin Feng looked at Cai Dali with a hint of excitement in his eyes.

In his heart, it is very clear that the current immersion system looks awesome, but it is destined to be replaced by EUV technology in the future.

Since the company in the Netherlands has not yet developed this technology, why can't Lin Feng develop this technology first.

Lin Feng can already imagine that once he can develop this technology in advance, the world's top chip technology in the future will be firmly in the hands of Xingkong Group.

As soon as Lin Feng thought of this, joy blossomed in his heart.

Seeing the joyful look on Lin Feng's face, Cai Dali couldn't bear to pour cold water on him, but as a researcher, he had to maintain an objective attitude.

"Boss, although what I say next is a bit unpleasant, I still want to say it."

Cai Dali saw Lin Feng's eyes turned to stare at him, and felt a little guilty, but when he thought that if he didn't make it clear, then Lin Feng would invest a huge amount of money into the research of EUV technology, and then all of them would be in vain. fault.

"Actually, with regard to EUV technology, there are many companies in the world who want to invest funds in research, but they all end in failure."

Lin Feng asked suspiciously: "Why?"

Although in the previous life, Lin Feng did know that the wave of concept stocks of lithography machines had been hyped, and Lin Feng personally participated in this wave of hype.

But he is really not very clear about the most important EUV technology of this lithography machine. Most of them have heard the name from others and know that it is a very powerful technology.

Cai Dali found that the reaction on Lin Feng's face was not very strong, so he explained slowly.

"The most important thing about this technology is that it has high requirements for extreme deep ultraviolet light, but judging from our current technological level, no company or country has mastered such technology at all."

"Take the refractive lenses of this technology as an example. At present, Zeiss is the only company in the world that can produce this technology. Other companies simply cannot produce lenses with this technology."

Cai Dali saw that Lin Feng, who was standing next to him, still had no major expression fluctuations on his face, and continued: "The most important thing is the research and development funds."

"According to speculation, to research this technology, if everything goes well, it only needs 50 billion US dollars, and this budget is still under the optimal plan."

After Cai Dali finished speaking, he stood there quietly without waiting, his eyes fixed on Lin Feng, he was waiting for Lin Feng to make a decision.

"Dali, what you just said makes sense."

Cai Dali was delighted when he heard Lin Feng's words. He thought that Lin Feng had listened to what he had just said, but what Lin Feng said next surprised him.

Lin Feng looked at Cai Dali and put his hands on his shoulders.

"Although this road is difficult to walk, once it goes through, do you know what it means to our country?"

When Lin Feng said this, he slightly raised his head and looked up.

"By that time, it will represent that our country has already stood at the forefront of the world in the field of lithography machine technology, and will not be bullied by others in the future."
