Rebirth: My 80s

Chapter 725 Two acquaintances’ tasting and ordering meeting

Compared with the sensation caused by the dual-track price system, the advent of my country's first third-generation lithography machine is like a pebble thrown into the pond, causing ripples only in a limited scope such as the scientific and technological community.

Ordinary people have no idea what a photolithography machine is.

Of course, the introduction of the dual-track price system has also largely overshadowed the launch of the third generation of photolithography machines.

The "Three Generations Photolithography Machine Tasting and Ordering Meeting" organized by the Association for Science and Technology seemed to be held quietly.

However, although there was not much movement in the society, the courtyard of the Association for Science and Technology was still very lively that day.

Representatives from the scientific and technological circles from all over the country, including representatives from related electronics factories, numbering in the hundreds, poured into the auditorium of the Association for Science and Technology.

On the stage of the auditorium, there is a seven-seat commercial vehicle-sized machine in the center. It is mainly white in color, with many exposed metal and optical components, exuding a unique industrial beauty that is the fusion of multiple disciplines.

After the leader of the Association for Science and Technology gave the opening speech, Chen Chunxian came on stage in a crisp gray suit and gave a more professional report speech to the professionals present than before. From the technical parameters of the product to practical applications, it was extremely detailed and emotional.

It also attracted applause from the whole house.

Then came the tasting time. Everyone was free to move around. Most people couldn't wait to climb up to the stage to admire this chip technology incubator up close. Chen Chunxian was like a salesman, waiting beside the machine to explain and answer any questions.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

After Li Jiankun was confused, he felt troubled and didn't know how to persuade him not to get together with Liu. Each of these technology tycoons is one of a kind, and frankly speaking, they are all quite stubborn.

"You guys are amazing." Ni Guanglan said sincerely. He knew that Li Jiankun and Chen Chunxian had a close relationship, but he didn't know before that China Silicon Valley Company was a partnership between the two.

"Now that the economy is becoming more and more open, sooner or later it will not be much different from the market-oriented economy abroad. You know that the China Silicon Valley Company of Lao Chen and I not only has a photolithography machine project, but there are many researchers in Zhongguancun working through our company. We all resell the scientific and technological achievements we produce to others, as if we are doing trade, so Lao Chen and I once discussed a question: In the future, will the company's main development direction be technology, industry and trade, or trade, industry and technology?"

"Comrade Xiao Li."

Ni Guanglan said without hesitation: "For technology companies, technology is always the core. It must be technology to promote trade, just like what you are doing now. Don't put the cart before the horse. Putting trade first cannot promote the rapid development of technology. Everything is buy, buy, buy." , and then sell and sell, what is the difference between those in today’s society who want to dump goods from state-owned factories and sell them?”

"The situation today is very good. I hope your company will get better and better." Ni Guanglan raised his hand and gestured around, "The chip is the brain of electronic technology, and the lithography machine is the incubator of the chip. There is no doubt that the future will be highly dependent on In a society of electronic technology, the development of domestic chip industry is of great significance and has a long way to go."

"Of course it's the technical trade!"

Li Jiankun couldn't get close to him. As he was walking casually under the stage, an acquaintance walked towards him.

"But it doesn't matter."

Li Jiankun was not surprised that Ni Guanglan would come today. In his previous life, this man strongly advocated the development of the domestic chip industry and made many efforts to this end.

"Professor Ni."

"It's just a matter of stepping on the shoulders of those who came before us and achieving small achievements by chance." Li Jiankun waved his hand and said.

Ni Guanglan was surprised: "You even know about this? You are still discussing it internally."

"Is the leader's surname Liu?" Li Jiankun asked calmly.

So far, Li Jiankun has not met anyone in China who has said these words, not even Chen Chunxian. They simply spoke to his heart and also predicted the future of success very well.

However, Chen Chunxian is already considering resigning from the Academy of Sciences. Firstly, he has no skills and secondly, there are some restrictions.

"I'm not proficient in the chip field... By the way, when it comes to this, I quite admire Chen Chunxian," Ni Guanglan said with a smile, "My expertise is in the computer field, and I always want to make some achievements in the field I am good at. , and now there is an opportunity. The Institute of Computer Science is planning to set up a company to learn from your experience and transform scientific and technological achievements into economic benefits. They are contacting me."

"Excessive modesty is pride."

"Professor Ni, I have a question to ask you."

"Professor Ni, why don't you join us to work on important things? You don't have to leave the Academy of Sciences. Doesn't Lao Chen still have a name?" Li Jiankun extended the invitation again.

"Professor Ni has great insights. The final result of the discussion between Lao Chen and I was also technology, industry and trade. However, didn't I just say that a friend knows that researcher Liu? If you really want to cooperate with him, it's best to talk about his ideas beforehand. If there is a conflict, it may not be easy to deal with in the future. Lao Chen and I are lucky, otherwise there is a possibility of separation in the future."

For the sake of beating around the bush, Li Jiankun tried his best. He ignored the person named Liu and only hoped to change Ni Guanglan's future trajectory.

Ni Guanglan frowned slightly, and when he was thoughtful, Li Jiankun vaguely noticed a pair of eyes focused on him at nine o'clock, so he turned around and looked around.

Unexpectedly, there was an acquaintance at the scene. The appearance of this person was completely beyond his expectation. After all, we were far apart from each other.

I don’t know if Professor Ni would think this was a ploy to poach people. Anyway, after saying goodbye, Li Jiankun walked over and said, "Eh? Have we met somewhere?"

Ren Zhengfei smiled and nodded, standing motionless on the spot, obviously a little nervous: "At the Nanhai Oil Base in Pengcheng, you went to see someone off."

Li Jiankun naturally remembered that he was just looking for an opening statement. He was framed by Xu Qingyou, and a dean of the Northeast was severely burned. Later, Xu Qingyou’s wife went to the Special Administrative Region to find connections, and the dean of the Petroleum Exploration Bureau also came from the Northeast. , it was the South China Sea oil base within the same system that he sent. "What's your surname? I didn't expect to see you here."

"My surname is Ren. I came here shamelessly. I mainly think that the breakthrough in lithography machine technology is not trivial and I want to gain knowledge." Ren Zhengfei's posture is very low. In fact, he has no posture now.

The full name of his current unit is Nanhai Petroleum Logistics Service Base, and the word "logistics" is enough to explain everything.

In his previous life, in 1987, when he raised 21,000 yuan to found Huawei, the main reason was that his work was not going well.

Li Jiankun's current thoughts are quite complicated. In the chip wars in his past life and later, the man in front of him played a key role. In reviving my country's chip industry, his company has always been at the forefront. However, going back forty years, he has stood still. At the "press conference" of his company's third-generation lithography machine, he looked like a lonely little transparent one.

Li Jiankun didn't know that Ren Zhengfei's thoughts were more complicated than his.

Ren Zhengfei first learned about Li Jiankun's identity through the dean: an electric blanket maker.

The electric blanket was only a year old when the SAR Huadian Company suddenly transformed and started radio, a field in which it was relatively good at. It launched a cutting-edge product in the field of radio - a Chinese display BB machine, and transformed into a high-tech company.

Such leap-forward development is already jaw-dropping.

Unexpectedly, today, Ren Zhengfei discovered another identity of this person: the co-founder of China Silicon Valley Company in the capital. They developed my country's first third-generation lithography machine with world-class technology.

And this person looked like he was only about twenty-five years old.

Compared with him, Ren Zhengfei felt that all these years had been wasted, and the unwillingness in his heart became increasingly uncontrollable.

"How do you feel?" Li Jiankun asked with a smile, pointing to the lithography machine on the stage.

"It's breathtaking. The complexity of the craftsmanship and the perfect integration of multiple disciplines, ordinary people like me can't even understand why."

"You are too modest."

"The level is really limited, but..." Ren Zhengfei suddenly raised his chest, "Mr. Li, I noticed that Huadian Company in the Special Zone is recruiting partners for the pager business. I think that my skills in the field of radio communications are pretty good, and I can recruit them. Come and form a team with some retired comrades. I wonder if I would be lucky enough to take over your company's business?"

"Are you ready to go to the sea?" Li Jiankun asked with his eyes wide open, shouting in his heart: Damn it, the time is wrong, he will never dare to disturb this person's life, what if he loses it with a Huawei fan...

Ren Zhengfei nodded.

"I don't doubt that you can come to such a meeting technically, but this is no child's play. You have to think carefully."

"I have thought clearly that the current job is not what I like, and continuing to do it is just a waste of time."

Li Jiankun then thought about it, wouldn't it be more beneficial for this person to wake up earlier?

"Well, you better think about it carefully. I should be in the Special Administrative Region next month. If you haven't changed your mind then, come see me again."

Ren Zhengfei scratched his head. He didn't know why this person was more cautious than him, but he seemed to have agreed. He was very excited and thanked him repeatedly.

At this time, everyone who should see the lithography machine on the stage saw the same thing, and the meeting entered the third link, ordering.

"Where are the people in charge of the relevant units in need? Listen to me, world-class technology and such good production materials must be equipped as soon as possible. As the saying goes, if a worker wants to do his job well, he must first sharpen his tools and have good production equipment. , Only in this way can quality and technology be improved." People from the Association for Science and Technology helped with the sales.

"Everyone, please rest assured that this is our own company. As long as you buy our equipment, our company will not only guarantee the quality, but also provide lifelong technical support. Small problems are free of charge and it is written in the contract." Chen Chunxian naturally works harder than anyone else.

The scene was chaotic, as if what was being sold was not a photolithography machine, but an iron skin bump.

But the effect is very good.

Those who need lithography machines are all large companies, and the price of 500,000 units is not unacceptable to them. Furthermore, they usually have no way to buy such advanced lithography machines.

Considering that the delivery cycle is definitely not short, there has been a race-like ordering scene.

Chen Chunxian was so happy that she hurriedly called her assistant and took out the contract she had prepared early in the morning. Li Jiankun looked at it in the audience and signed more than a dozen contracts one after another.

Already quite impressive.

The future lithography machine giant Ames of the Netherlands will only sell a hundred lithography machines per year on average.

Li Jiankun crossed his chest with his hands and touched his chin with his right hand. Is it done?

Not to mention other things, Huaxia Silicon Valley Company should be able to live a good life in the future if it serves these dozen companies well. Generally speaking, for a similar high-tech product, the manufacturer's production is sufficient and the use is quite good. Generally speaking, it is not I will switch to other brands again. This involves many technical aspects and it is not easy to adjust.

The stone hanging in his heart slowly fell down.

This is naturally the best.
