Chapter 118: Having an old man in the family is like having a treasure

"Academician Ni, please come first!"

Wang Dongsheng, who came to Hanxi with Gao Peng, got off the plane and saw the car coming to pick them up from Dongxin Semiconductor and said to Ni Guangnan.

Wang Dongsheng came with Ni Guangnan on this plane. They were both in Yanjing. He also heard a lot about the things that happened within Lenovo. The media had long made a fuss about this matter that originally belonged to Lenovo. , who is right and who is wrong, and there are all kinds of true and false rumors, which make it difficult to distinguish.

However, Wang Dongsheng, who admires technology and has always advocated independent research and development, or most people in China who still insist on developing their own technology at this moment, are implicitly supporting Ni Guangnan.

However, through the situation of BOE, which is currently OEMing for Panasonic, Wang Dongsheng also knows that based on Lenovo's current situation, facing the impact of foreign computer brands such as IBM, Dell, and Compaq this year, Lenovo has sold less than 3,000 computers. The competition in Hanka is also fierce. Lenovo is going through a survival and bankruptcy crisis. How can it have money to do any research and development at this time?

In addition to this fundamental reason, there is another reason that no one will say, and that is that by spending money on research and development, Lenovo will hand over less profits, shareholder dividends, and investor income to its superior units.

This situation is a test of human nature. Everyone knows that if you endure hardship now, your children and grandchildren may enjoy happiness, but how many people can really do it, especially if they use the money that belongs to them now to benefit the future, they don’t know which one has nothing to do with them at all. There are probably even fewer descendants who are willing to do it.

Ni Guangnan's situation at Lenovo is actually doomed. Wang Dongsheng feels that the outcome of this matter will soon be decided, but the result may end with Ni Guangnan quitting Lenovo.

This is not a secret in the technology circle. Anyone who knows a little bit knows clearly whether the people inside Lenovo support Boss Liu who gives them money and equity, or Ni Guangnan who supports spending their money. The answer is obvious. As long as the management meeting As soon as the vote was taken, it was time for Ni Guangnan to leave Lenovo.

The only difference is whether Ni Guangnan leaves on his own to be decent, or whether someone "helps" him to be decent, but the latter may make Ni Guangnan a tragic figure!

"Mr. Li is really generous!"

Wang Dongsheng and Zhang Ao said to Zhang Ao after getting into the next car.

After companies such as Nippon Toshiba, Sharp, and Sanyo announced price increases for parts supplied to Donglin High-tech, Donglin High-tech launched attacks in all directions. Although the media has not yet reported it, the news has already spread within the industry.

Donglin High-tech invested in a battery company in Pengcheng, and then approached BOE in Yanjing to jointly establish a screen panel company. Now it has invited Ni Guangnan to come over, obviously to do things on the chip.

All of these are definitely a big deal. As a person in the technology industry, seeing that Dongling Hi-Tech has not surrendered, but is really trying to fight against the giant companies of Japan and Benzene on its own. Even an outsider like Wang Dongsheng, to be honest, Everyone was a little excited.

If he knew that in the past few days, Li Dongling had hired the lithography machine R&D team of Research Institute 45 to Dongxin Semiconductor, he didn't know what he would think.

"You will know Mr. Li's character once you have seen it!" Gao Peng shook his head and said, "Mr. Li is not even afraid of Microsoft. He dares to go to America to file a lawsuit with Microsoft, let alone those devil companies. They are really afraid of it." You are not a thing. If you fall out, you will fall out. What do you think of Dongling High-tech? If you retreat, you will be ridden on your head. You are not a thing anymore. Those devils!"

When mentioning Nippon Toshiba and Sanyo, Gao Peng was so angry that he felt that he was really bullying others, and he really treated Dongling Hi-Tech as if he was cutting leeks.

Gao Peng and other senior executives of Tanglin High-tech also understand that if they do not respond this time, then Toshiba and other companies will really ride on the neck of Donglin High-tech. It is really intolerable. !

Looking at the indignant Gao Peng, Wang Dongsheng was silent for a while. He had never seen Gao Peng like this in a long time. In the domestic technology industry, someone dared to resist the challenge of foreign companies.

Even including BOE, in the face of companies such as Panasonic, they are still giving in step by step. Even if the bottom line is exceeded, they still give in. There is no other way. Who makes BOE really need Panasonic's technology and need to OEM for others to survive? If you go down, you will be pinched by the neck, and you have to rely on others to feed you, so how can you challenge him?

Looking out the window, Wang Dongsheng hopes that this trip to Hanxi will bring rewards to BOE, so that one day he can straighten up and challenge the screen manufacturers like Sharp and Panasonic head-on!

"Academician Ni!"

"Director Wang, welcome to Hanxi!"

After Li Dongling shook hands with Ni Guangnan and Wang Dongsheng, he said to them that Ni Guangnan was thin and thin, with a look of vicissitudes and fatigue on his face. In addition, he had already reached the age of knowing his fate, and he obviously didn't look good at the moment.

"Academician Ni is tired from traveling and traveling, do you want to take a rest first?!" Li Dongling said to Ni Guangnan.

"No need!" Ni Guangnan is a straight-tempered person who doesn't make so many twists and turns. In addition, with his current status and identity, he doesn't need that trick anymore. To be honest, he has already won all the honors and medals he should win. Fame and fortune are of no use to her anymore. There is only one thing he thinks about most now, but his long-cherished wish to develop a self-developed chip has come to nothing!

He directly said to Li Dongling, "I am here this time to do business. Once the business is done, whatever you say will do!"

Seeing this, Wang Dongsheng said very tactfully, "Mr. Li will talk to Academician Ni first, please ask Manager Gao to show me the style of Dongxin Semiconductor!"

After Wang Dongsheng left, Ni Guangnan asked Li Dongling directly, "Dongling Hi-Tech really want to develop chips?!"

"Academician Ni has already seen it. This is the headquarters of Dongxin Semiconductor. If you are interested, Academician Ni can go upstairs and see the lithography machine project that Chief Engineer Zhou Shi is leading the team to develop!"

These words really surprised Ni Guangnan. He did not expect that Dongxin Semiconductor would play such a big role, not only touching chips, but also involving lithography machines.

After calming down and taking a sip of water, Ni Guangnan said, "You must have heard about me at Lenovo. I can resign and leave Lenovo, but if I join Dongxin, what I have to do is independently develop chips. This is My only request!"

"It's natural. Academician Ni is invited to come here this time, and he is responsible for leading the chip team of Dongxin Semiconductor. Like Chief Engineer Zhou Shi, he will become the chief engineer of Dongxin Semiconductor!"

Li Dongling said that if Ni Guangnan joins Dongxin Semiconductor, he and Zhou Shi will each lead a R&D team. Chips and lithography machines will become the two legs of Dongxin Semiconductor. Only with these two legs can Dongxin Semiconductor have the ability to The qualifications are comparable to those of Nikon, Samsung, Intel and other companies.

"Where are the R&D funds?!" Ni Guangnan asked the question he was most concerned about. It is not uncommon in the technology industry to be deceived but not given money for R&D. Some companies even use the banner of technology giants to swindle, but this is not the case. It happened frequently, and Ni Guangnan didn't want to fall into the trap himself. His reputation and age could only be squandered a few times.

Li Dongling exhaled, "Dongli Hi-tech, the parent company of Dongxin Semiconductor, will invest a start-up capital in the early stage. In the later stage, Dongxin Semiconductor's R&D funds will be obtained through cooperative projects!"

As soon as these words came out, Ni Guangnan's expression suddenly changed. This was not the answer he wanted. What he wanted was the kind of product that would have enough R&D funds to allow him to develop unrestricted products.

"If Dongxin Semiconductor needs to survive, it cannot rely solely on Donglin Hi-Tech's relief, otherwise it will never stand up!"

Li Dongling looked calmly and said to Ni Guangnan, "You also know that I heard about Dongling Hi-Tech's current situation. We need to first develop our own phone chip motherboard for Dongling Hi-Tech at Dongxin Semiconductor. Then, Academician Ni, you can develop computer chips or other Chip, it’s up to you!

In the future, Dongxin Semiconductor's chip department will be divided into two product lines. One is to develop computer chips according to your wishes, Academician Ni, and the other is to develop chips for Donglin Hi-Tech's new products! "

Li Dongling needs Ni Guangnan to develop digital cordless phone chips for Dongling Hi-tech. In the future, he will use the money earned from developing chips for mini radios, PHS, VCD, DVD, MP3 and other products to support Dongxin Semiconductor, otherwise Dongling Hi-tech alone will die. It is really difficult to support this gold-eating beast.

The expression on Ni Guangnan's face changes. He wants that kind of pure academic R&D atmosphere, but neither Lenovo nor Dongxin Semiconductor can provide that kind of idealist R&D environment. That is unrealistic!

The only difference is that Dongxin Semiconductor really wants to develop chips, and Lenovo, let’s not mention it, should we continue to stay at Lenovo and engage in hopeless internal strife, or should we come to Dongxin Semiconductor to develop chips, even if we can’t do it wholeheartedly? Developing the computer chip he dreamed of, as well as developing other chips that he had previously looked down upon, were placed in front of him.

"Three years. If the research and development does not produce results within three years, I will leave!"

After thinking for a moment, Ni Guangnan said to Li Dongling, and then said to Li Dongling, "As the first step of joining Dongxin Semiconductor, I will lead people to solve the chip problem of Shenzhou Phone by March next year at the latest!"

When he said this, Ni Guangnan had strong confidence and confidence. He had done his homework before coming. How could he dare to take on the porcelain work without diamonds? Ni Guangnan was confident in developing the chip motherboard of the Shenzhou Phone. To develop this thing, It’s not more difficult than developing computer chips, right? !

Now there is less than half a year until March next year at most. Being able to solve the chip problem of the Shenzhou phone in half a year is absolutely amazing.

"As long as a chip can be developed for the Shenzhou phone, Tanglin Hi-Tech will immediately invest no less than 10 million yuan to allow Academician Ni to start the research and development of computer chips!"

To develop computer chips, 10 million is definitely not enough. From now on, if Ni Guangnan wants to continue to develop computer chips, he will have to continue to develop chips for other products for Dongling Hi-tech. The more Dongling Hi-tech makes, the more he can get. R&D expenses.
