Chapter 495 I have fully understood the photolithography machine

"Ahui, don't worry about it." Cao Haibin said to Ahui who was frowning.

Ah Hui sighed and looked away from the computer screen, "Okay, leader, let's arrange the work."

"As you can see," Cao Haibin cleared his throat, "Mr. Li has already laid the framework and paved the way for the assembly line intelligent manufacturing project."

Everyone, including Liu Liwei, watched eagerly.

"Uh... don't be discouraged..."

Hey, that's strange, why use the word discouraged?

"Not really. Anyway, you know what I mean. We may be slow to produce results, but as Mr. Li said, our basic research is in place, and we still have a lot of work to do. I thought about it, the summarization of keywords, the supplementation of specific models, the optimization of efficiency formulas, the matching of large amounts of data, and the final construction of the platform, the workload is not small."

"Yes." Liu Liwei applauded.

"We will convene a work study meeting later and each of us will take on a task. Go back and study the model, algorithm, and program sent by Mr. Li. We will meet again in a couple of days to see how to advance the work."

After these words, everyone ignited some passion again, mainly because they sorted out a simple logic:

Li Yan is their boss. He is so capable but he is not dissatisfied with them because they cannot do it. It is a good thing.

There is nothing to be discouraged.

So the focus shifts to "completion" again. The goal that is within reach and the effect of making steady progress must be exciting.

But after everyone dispersed, Ah Hui was still frowning at the computer.

Cao Haibin walked over and patted him on the shoulder, thinking that this was probably another case of someone who thought he was extremely capable suffering from the aftereffects of a dimensionality reduction attack, and he was ready to help him heal his broken heart.

"Ah Hui, Brother Hui, are you still struggling?"

"……wrong."

"Let me tell you, we've all been in this state of mind. Who isn't an outstanding person if they can get into Future Technology? And everyone tends to create value for the company, not just for the money. So..."

"I'm not thinking about these things. I don't dare to think about them."

Eh? You weren't like this before, bro.

"At first I thought that Mr. Li had indeed made a skeleton as he said."

As soon as these words came out, Cao Haibin's eyes widened, and he had a bad feeling.

Ah Hui's brows were furrowed. "Just based on this keyword, I thought it was roughly classified. We still need to continuously improve it based on basic information... Damn, I thought he just gave me some ideas."

Ah Hui paused, pointed at the densely packed tree diagram and said to Cao Haibin, "What the hell, he has categorized almost all of our examples, extracted keywords, and calculated weights based on the algorithm logic he wrote. The relationship diagram is so clear, what else can we do?"

Cao Haibin also frowned and looked at it for a long time. "Maybe, let's revise it and make some suggestions?"

"He didn't just make a skeleton, he just finished the work." Ah Hui put down the mouse and turned around, "Brother, Mr. Cao, Brother Haibin! It's not that we don't want to do this analysis, it's that we can't do it, you know!"

Cao Haibin took a deep breath and said nothing for a long time.

"We can't even come up with an idea, what do you think we can do to change it?"

"Wait, wait," Cao Haibin stopped the car in time, "Wouldn't it be better if we didn't change it?"

Ah Hui was stunned. "Oh, after all this time, you're back to what you told me... Hey."

He smiled and shook his head without saying anything more.

The work promotion meeting that was originally scheduled to be held two days later was eventually postponed.

Because everyone encountered the same problem - there was nothing to deepen.

Everyone thought that the assembly line construction model block created by Li Yan was just a "sketch", but when they opened it, they found that it was very detailed and had all the necessary details.

Maybe it's just a typical model, with missing numbers?

The results were very complete, so complete that there were 15 fucking construction models in the keywords Li Yan listed as "special needs".

So the data is not accurate yet, or at least cannot match each other?
The answer is yes. Not only that, but all of them can be automatically matched based on the specific parameters entered.

...Then let’s look at the algorithm?

At least the program can't be complete, right?

As a result, all the ports that should be provided were provided, and even the calculation methods were optimized. The test version built 300 models at the same time, and it only took two seconds to match them with one click after entering the data.

joke?

As for the "efficiency calculation formula" mentioned by Li Yan, there is no need to mention it.

It took everyone a while to understand it - after all, it is a system based on this assembly line intelligent manufacturing system, and it is difficult to optimize something that you can hardly understand.

This is a very complete system with a solid data foundation, self-contained and logically self-consistent.

After much research, the only thing we can do is...

Surface work.

At least Li Yan was not so crazy as to complete the UI interface.

But what is speechless is that Li Yan had already developed the "Future Technology UI Adaptive Design Library".

They don’t even have to pick things out of it, they just need to set the requirements in the design library and generate all the UIs for a platform with one click.

This thing was designed to improve the efficiency of the super living circle design. It was originally handed over to Sun Miao, who led two departments to work on it in two weeks, and was praised by everyone for its speed.

Sun Miao has always been very reluctant to be praised and always says, "It's Mr. Li who is awesome."

Many colleagues secretly complained about Sun Miao, thinking that he was going too far in licking the boss.

Now it seems... Damn, it might really be that Li Yan did most of the work.

After all, he is a serious "artist".

So, on the day when the assembly line intelligent manufacturing project team finally held its meeting, everyone was silent.

Looking at each other, unwilling to say "I didn't find anything that could be optimized", the group of people maintained a strange tacit understanding.

Cao Haibin hesitated several times, but after finishing a small plate of peanuts on the table, he finally made a positive statement:
"Since there is really nothing to optimize or supplement, let's start the actual production test directly. Problems must be found in practice!"

Everyone agreed and their eyes suddenly lit up again.

Testing finds problems and solves them, that's the hard truth.

The actual application test of the assembly line intelligent manufacturing project has been carried out in full swing.

When Cao Haibin went to Li Yan to report the progress and apply for funds, Li Yan was a little surprised.

"Have you found any problem?"

"Ah? Uh... no." Cao Haibin didn't quite understand what Li Yan meant.

"Then why did it take so many days to advance the actual production test?"

Just...come?

"Mr. Li, this is only four days, right? From the time you said we should start optimizing till now."

"Yeah, so did you really find any problems? I'm very curious about this, tell me about it."

Cao Haibin finally reacted and felt hot all over. "Well, no, we didn't find anything to optimize."

"Why didn't you start the test sooner?"

You said that we should optimize, so we must work hard to find Mr. Li!
He certainly didn't dare to say this, so Cao Haibin could only scratch his cheek.

"I said to optimize and supplement some things in order not to discourage your enthusiasm. If you think there is no problem, then practice it as soon as possible." Li Yan said, "As long as you have the ability to optimize, you will not be unable to come up with anything."

Cao Haibin swallowed his saliva and said, "I'm sorry to disappoint you, Mr. Li."

"No, don't talk about that." Li Yan was flipping through the book. "This was originally my idea. I am the one who knows what I want best. Information loss is inevitable in the process of transmitting ideas. It is normal that your ideas are not in sync since you are starting the research from scratch. In the end, I will be very satisfied if you can do a good job of collecting preliminary information."

"Then, do we still need to start production testing?"

"Of course. You have to give me a detailed bill of production accuracy and cost."

"Okay, I'll start right away." "I'll only say this to you, but you should figure out how to express it to your subordinates."

"Ok."

"We will try to come up with a set of products that can be demonstrated before the end of the year," Li Yan said. "Once there are no problems with internal operations, we will directly invite some medium-sized companies to come to discuss and raise assembly line requirements to complete the second phase of testing."

When Cao Haibin walked out of Li Yan's office, he took a deep breath, stood on the balcony and exhaled for a long time, closed his eyes and rested for a long time, then walked to the corner of the stairs and lit a cigarette.

Sun Miao happened to pass by the stairs. He gave Cao Haibin a mysterious smile and whispered:
"God's punishment."

are you crazy.

"What are you going for?"

"An audience."

"...Can you be normal?"

"Only by remaining in awe can you withstand the gaze of the gods."

crazy……

Cao Haibin looked up at the sky in silence.

When he finished smoking this cigarette, he suddenly had a magical idea:

"Sun Miao, is this the right thing to do?"

Sun Miao found Wang Zi and made an appointment to report to Li Yan.

"Mr. Sun, I've told you many times that Mr. Li has emphasized that you don't need to make an appointment with me when you go to see him."

“No, I still need to understand it, otherwise it would be blasphemy without Mr. Li.”

"Boss Sun, are you going to say these words to Boss Li?"

"That's definitely not the case." Sun Miao smiled, "I'm not a fool, I'm normal."

"…You don't act like this in front of other people, do you?"

"Only among us ministers," Sun Miao showed a wise look, "You obviously feel the same way."

"Mr. Li is definitely not here right now. He should be staying in the laboratory these days." Wang Zi said, "But he said that if there is an emergency, I can call him. What do you want to tell him?"

"That's not necessary. Let's talk about our data in the international market."

"I don't know about that. How are the results?"

Sun Miao pursed his lips and nodded, "You can smell the rust."

"what?"

"There will soon be a bloody storm."

Wang Zi couldn't help but write down two words on the memo in her hand: "Chuunibyou."

After a few days, Li Yan returned to the laboratory where the photolithography machine was placed.

The reason for the lack of sustained output during this period is simple—he has completed his understanding of all the parts.

On the one hand, company affairs need to be handled regularly in the office, especially the work of promoting intelligent manufacturing of assembly lines; on the other hand, he wants to temporarily leave the environment where the lithography machine exists and reproduce the lithography machine model on the computer.

If we tell Cao Haibin that the construction models of the assembly line intelligent manufacturing were made by him when he was working on the parts of the lithography machine, I wonder if this will make Cao, who thinks he is immune, feel shattered again.

The results are very optimistic, even somewhat beyond expectations.

Li Yan not only reproduced the operation of the lithography machine on the computer, but also optimized many of its parts, reducing a total of 2851 parts.

Compared to the nearly 70,000 parts count, this number is nothing.

But it is of great significance.

This shows that Li Yan has fully understood the lithography machine.

The most terrifying thing is that he also disassembled the key components of the lithography machine in this way.

The production of optical components is still difficult at present.

No matter how capable Li Yan is, he is still a human being. It is impossible for him to know the size and angle of optical components by just touching and looking. The accuracy of these directly determines whether the lithography machine can make chips.

Fortunately, he no longer needs to replicate the data of the lithography machine he bought one by one, but can realize the functions of the optical components according to his own data.

But achieving accuracy at a sufficiently fine scale is not determined by personal ability.

It depends on the level of industry.

Li Yan needs sufficiently strong technical support.

He needed to verify to others that he indeed understood the lithography machine. As long as it could be manufactured according to his data, he would be able to handle this high-end product that was monopolized by Asuma.

So he replaced the ultra-high-definition camera in his laboratory and gave himself a few days to piece together the lithography machine that had been dismantled into pieces.

Of course, it is impossible to really play with such a sophisticated machine as a building block. When Li Yan disassembled it, he used the help of many machines, and the research room he stayed in was also dust-free.

But even so, if you don't understand the lithography machine itself, even if you put it back together one by one according to the instructions, there is a high probability that this thing will still be scrapped.

For a machine with such a high level of precision, it is no exaggeration to say that there may be requirements on how many turns a screw should be tightened.

Li Yan suddenly remembered an anecdote told by Shi Lei. The CEO of Asma once made a comment on the sale of lithography machines to China:
"Even if we give them the design drawings, they still can't make a photolithography machine."

He felt mixed emotions and his expression was complicated.

But quiet.

In three days, Li Yan put the lithography machine back together.

And started without any tension.

The end result, everything worked fine.

What’s outrageous is that Li Yan still has nearly a hundred parts that have not been assembled.

This is certainly not an oversight. Now, things like "carelessness", "forgetfulness" and "omission" are impossible for Li Yan to happen.

He did it on purpose.

Nothing can better prove that he fully understands the lithography machine.

The so-called "unreplicable", the so-called "industrial pearl", the so-called parts come from all over the world and are indispensable, the so-called tens of thousands of parts are the result of highly optimized...

There is obviously room for optimization.

Li Yan looked at the reassembled lithography machine and felt a little disappointed.

After all the work, the most amazing thing is still the set of optical accessories.

But as long as the country concentrates its efforts and the precision can be met, a lithography machine can be built according to Li Yan's drawings.

This is bound to succeed.

The technology of deep ultraviolet light is just like this. Now that we know the principle, everything is just a matter of precision.

In fact, the accuracy requirements can be reduced in some ways.

A car-sized lithography machine that can be transported to other places for work is definitely much more difficult to build than a "lithography room".

Li Yan even contacted several of the country's leading optical research laboratories, hoping to test it himself first.

If you can take a set of actual optical accessories, combine them with your own drawings, and ask the authorities to find a manufacturer with sufficient strength to promote the manufacturing of parts at all costs, it should not be difficult.

Logically speaking, I should be very excited.

But Li Yan didn't.

He felt mixed emotions about the statement "We can't build a lithography machine even if we are given a blueprint", and it was not influenced by any patriotism.

But a very outrageous idea:
"That's it?"
