Chapter 424 Military-Civil Integration

"Mr. Hu, it's almost time. Let's get off work early."

In the afternoon, Hu Yang has been processing official documents. During this time, there were a lot of things in the company, so Hu Yang specially concentrated on them.

"Well, it's already past five o'clock. Assistant Lin, have all the directors of Charming Semiconductor been notified?"

Hu Yang sat on the chair, raised his head and twisted his neck. He hardly got up all afternoon and felt that his neck was a little stiff.

"Yes, we have been notified. Mr. Gao and Mr. Chen both said they would attend the meeting on time."

Lin Yan replied with a smile, then organized the files on the desktop and put them into the filing cabinet.

"Let Ajie prepare the car and go home now."

Hu Yang stood up and stretched, getting ready to get off work.

At this time, the work phone in Lin Yan's hand rang. She immediately answered the call, and after saying a few words to the other party, handed it to Hu Yang: "Mr. Hu, this is Secretary Zhang's phone number."

"Hello, Secretary Zhang! What instructions do you have?"

Hu Yang took the phone and started chatting with the other party.

"Mr. Hu, how dare I give any instructions? The leader wants to see you. Is it convenient for you now? If so, please come to the city."

Secretary Zhang prefers to deal with Hu Yang. This young entrepreneur has no airs and has the same attitude towards senior leaders and junior secretaries.

"Okay then, I'll go out now. I'll be there in about forty minutes."

Qi Xiangmin still needs to give him some face. He probably has something to do with him.

Hu Yang hung up the phone and asked Lin Yan and Mi Qi to get off work first. He took Li Jie and Lu Dacheng and drove directly to the city hall.

When he walked into the city government building, Secretary Zhang was waiting for him at the security desk.

"Secretary Zhang, is there anything important that the leader has summoned? If you had made the call just ten minutes later, I would have gone home from get off work."

Hu Yang and Secretary Zhang walked to the door of Qi Xiangmin's office together. On the way, Hu Yang asked.

Secretary Zhang smiled and shook his head: "You will know when you go in, I can't say more."

Hu Yang didn't take it seriously. Secretary Zhang knocked on the door and let Hu Yang in.

"Mr. Hu, are you here? You have met this person before, so you don't need me to introduce him, right? There is another one, Director Ai from the 27th Institute."

Hu Yang walked in and saw Qi Xiangmin, Ma Yu and a man about fifty years old sitting on the sofa talking.

Seeing Secretary Zhang walking in accompanied by Hu Yang, several people stood up and Qi Xiangmin introduced him with a smile.

"Hello, Mr. Hu! I'm Ai Minghui, nice to meet you."

Ai Minghui stepped forward and shook hands with Hu Yang. The director of the 27th Institute looked like a scholar and gave people the impression that he had a strong scholarly aura.

"Hello, Director Ai."

Hu Yang smiled and said hello, and then greeted Qi Xiangmin and Ma Yu.

"Mr. Hu, it's Director Ai's suggestion to invite you here today. I'll treat Director Ai to dinner tonight and ask you to be my guest. Would you mind?"

In fact, Director Ai wanted to invite Populus euphratica to dinner. He had never met Populus euphratica before, so he came to see Qi Xiangmin first.

Director Ai and Qi Xiangmin are old friends, so Qi Xiangmin agreed to this trivial matter without hesitation.

Of course, Hu Yang would not refuse Qi Xiangmin's invitation. Speaking of which, he had known Qi Xiangmin for so long, and it seemed that the two of them had never had a meal together in private.

"Then let's go."

Seeing that Hu Yang had no objection, Qi Xiangmin waved his hand, and the others left the office and went downstairs.

Director Ai got into Qi Xiangmin's car, and Hu Yang asked Ma Yu to ride with him. Then the group left the city hall and drove for more than half an hour to an inconspicuous restaurant.

"Don't dislike it. I'm treating you privately today. We only pay attention to the quality of the dishes, not the ostentation."

Due to Qi Xiangmin's status, he is not suitable for going to high-end restaurants. Hu Yang, Director Ai and others can understand this.

The group of people sat down in a private room of the restaurant. Secretary Zhang had already ordered the food in advance, and soon the food and wine were served.

"Lao Qi, first of all, you recommended Mr. Hu to us. With the support of Mr. Hu's Charming Semiconductor, our mission is progressing very quickly.

Of course, we should be more grateful to Mr. Hu. Your help has allowed us to solve a big problem. I won’t say any more nonsense, come on, let’s do it!”

Ai Minghui was very approachable and had a good drinking capacity. After finishing the first glass of wine, he approached Hu Yang, and the two had several more drinks alone.

Qi Xiangmin and Ma Yu didn't drink much. Except for the first glass of wine, they almost didn't touch the glass again.

"Director Ai, please slow down a little. You and Mr. Hu should both eat more food."

Qi Xiangmin glared at Ai Minghui and said to himself, "You don't look at your age. If you really drink openly, you may not be able to outdrink others."

Ai Minghui smiled, but did not continue clinking glasses with Hu Yang.

"Director Ai, I'm glad to be able to help you. The design structure you provided for Charming Semiconductor also helped us a lot. So, there is no need to be so polite between us. To use a fashionable saying, this is called cooperation.

Win-win.”

Hu Yang knew that the R&D capability of the Institute of Electrical Engineering was still very strong. Although I had never heard of this 27 Institute before, just because they could come up with this xkg architecture, I knew that their background was not simple.

Ai Minghui was deeply moved when he heard what Hu Yang said. Sometimes they also need the support of private enterprises in the process of technical research. The cooperation situations vary, but Hu Yang's side is the most enjoyable.

"Mr. Hu, the first cooperation between our two units was very successful. I wonder if we can cooperate more deeply in the future? Charming Semiconductor is the well-deserved leader in the country in the field of memory chips. I hope we can continue to do so."

Establish a long-term cooperative relationship with you.”

Ai Minghui brought Ma Yu to Shenzhen this time. In addition to several technical issues that he wanted to discuss with Charming Semiconductor, the most important thing was to close the relationship with Populus euphratica.

The research and development tasks of Institute 27 every year are very heavy, and they encounter countless difficulties. In the past two years, the country has begun to trial the "military-civilian integration" strategy, and some projects can be broken down and cooperated with private enterprises.

"Mr. Hu, it is also beneficial for you to cooperate with the 27th Institute. With the brand of 'Military and Civilian Integration', it will also increase many opportunities for you."

Qi Xiangmin nodded and said no more.

Hu Yang smiled and nodded, indicating that he understood the process. Many people may think that domestic official research institutions are not very competitive and technologically backward, but he does not think so.

Different from civilian technology, Western countries have adopted a comprehensive blockade strategy for the domestic defense industry. It is under this comprehensive blockade that the domestic military industry and aerospace have achieved world-renowned achievements.

What does this mean? It shows that these official research institutions are not weak.

However, science and technology are developing rapidly in the world today, and the development of domestic private enterprises in recent years has also been very eye-catching. In the future, "military-civilian integration" is a trend, and being able to participate in it is definitely a big opportunity for a company.

"Director Ai, I wish us smooth cooperation in the future!"

Hu Yang and Director Ai reached a verbal agreement at the wine table and went back to fill in a text document, and the matter was settled.

"However, Mr. Hu, for the sake of confidentiality, the less people know about our agreement, the better. Do you understand what I mean?"

After dinner, Qi Xiangmin took the first step, and Hu Yang personally sent Ai Minghui and Ma Yu back to the hotel.

Hu Yang understood Ai Minghui's kind reminder. This kind of confidentiality work is mainly aimed at the outside world, so as not to allow Western countries, especially the United States, to find excuses to sanction Charming Semiconductor.

In the following days, Hu Yang personally handled the specific matters of strategic cooperation with Institute 27. The text of the agreement was the company's top secret and was kept in the safe in Hu Yang's office in the Investment Building.

On this day, Gao Mingkang, Chen Hao, and Chen Jialin all came to the small conference room on the 87th floor of the Investment Building, and Hu Yang held an extraordinary board meeting.

There is only one topic at this meeting, and that is that Charming Semiconductor is going to conduct a new round of financing.

Gao Mingkang and others had no objection to Hu Yang's proposal to build a large-scale DRAM factory, but the scale of the investment of tens of billions of yuan shocked a few people.

"Mr. Hu, I have no objection to financing, but whether it is additional issuance or corporate bond issuance, it is not easy to get approval."

What Chen Hao said is correct. Charming Semiconductor is now a listed company, and its financing behavior must comply with the rules. Judging from the time when Charming Semiconductor went public and its financial status, it is difficult to raise funds in the capital market.

Chen Jialin thought for a while and said: "Loans are also a way, but it is probably difficult to lend out such a large amount."

"One bank is definitely not enough, but you can find several more banks. In addition, Mr. Hu, where do you plan to build this factory? Let me tell you, this is a big project, no matter which city you plan to build the factory in

, you can negotiate the conditions with the local people."

Everyone understood what Gao Mingkang meant, which was to use this investment project as a bargaining chip to win strong local support.

"Loans are also an option, but with such a large amount, let alone whether it can be loaned out, even if the loan is obtained, the huge financial costs will be very painful for the company. I recently noticed that the country is conducting a pilot program of convertible bonds.

Why don’t we try applying first?”

Issuing convertible bonds is an attempt by the regulatory authorities. Hu Yang feels that some things may be easier to handle during the pilot phase.

"Then let's give it a try, but let's not have too much hope."

Both Chen Hao and Chen Jialin, father and son, agreed that Hu Yang should give Hu Yang a try. It didn’t matter if he failed. The worst he could do was find ways to raise funds from other channels.

"Everyone, it will take time to issue additional issuances, convertible bonds or borrow money from banks. We will formulate a board of directors minutes first, and we will have to issue an announcement later."

Hu Yang asked Lin Yan and Mi Qi to print out a copy of the board of directors minutes, and everyone signed and signed them.
