Chapter 541 sounds beautiful, Bolong Optics

After Hu Yang said these words, Meng Rusong looked at Zhang Rulin, and Zhang Rulin looked at Meng Rusong, but neither of them felt happy.

What does this mean? The noose around the neck has become slightly looser. Is it possible to tighten it further in the future?

Very possible!

"Mr. Hu, sales in our domestic market account for 19% of AS&L's annual revenue. But do we get any VIP customer treatment? Oh, this bullshit free market economy is all a lie.

Trick."

Meng Rusong couldn't help but curse, which basically overturned Hu Yang's previous impression of him.

But, this kind of thing is really irritating. There is nothing better than spending money to feel angry!

Zhang Rulin also shook his head repeatedly and said: "Mr. Hu, you must support the development of microelectronic equipment companies. I really hope that the century-long difficulty of domestic high-end lithography equipment can be overcome by them."

"Both of you, please calm down. It's not worthwhile to make yourself angry. High-end lithography machines are niche products in themselves, but they are crucial to the semiconductor industry. Not only do we lack technology, we also lack talents in this area.

I think it is actually very remarkable that a microelectronic equipment company can achieve what it is today. For the time being, they are not short of funds, so we can only wait patiently for them to produce results."

Hu Yang came to tell Meng Rusong and others the news today, originally intending to make them relax a little. As a result, it aroused the anger in the hearts of Meng Rusong and Zhang Rulin.

However, anger without strength is pale and weak.

After all, Meng Rusong and Zhang Rulin were industry elites. After venting their unhappiness, the two quickly regained their senses.

"Mr. Hu, according to the current progress, microelectronics equipment is not capable of producing 45nm lithography machines in the short term. I want to take advantage of the other party's resumption of supply to us in the coming year and order a few more 45nm lithography machines. What do you think?

Woolen cloth?"

Meng Rusong gathered his thoughts and decided to proceed steadily and spend one to one and a half years to continue to develop the next generation (28nm) process technology.

Don’t think about 28nm lithography machines in the past year or two. They will only supply them to companies such as Intel, Taipower, and S Star.

Xintong International has no chance at all.

Meng Rusong's idea is to use a 45nm photolithography machine, transform the equipment and upgrade advanced processes, and use auxiliary technical means to achieve production of the 28nm process.

This research and development process takes about more than a year. Basically, it can be consistent with Taipower's advanced manufacturing process, which can buy Xentong International almost two years.

Hu Yang did not reply to Meng Rusong immediately, but looked at Zhang Rulin, wanting to hear his opinion.

"I won't comment on the specific business strategy. Mr. Hu, you can just discuss it with Mr. Meng. You two, I already know the news. You can discuss it slowly, and I will take the first step."

Due to physical reasons, Zhang Rulin no longer interfered with specific matters related to production and operation. He was too lazy to participate in matters such as ordering equipment, so he left the office early.

"Director Zhang's body has never fully recovered. If it were not a major matter related to the life and death of the company, I would not alarm him."

After Meng Rusong waited for Zhang Rulin to leave, he explained to Hu Yang.

Hu Yang nodded and changed the subject: "Mr. Meng, it's up to you to order the equipment. Write a report to me later and I will approve it."

After the integration of Xintong International, the control of the company has actually fallen into the hands of Hu Yang.

Due to physical reasons, Zhang Rulin has handed over most of his responsibilities to Meng Rusong. With the support of him and Meng Rusong, Hu Yang actually has the decision-making power on major issues of Xintong International. Basically, after Hu Yang approves, Meng Rusong can implement it.

Of course, you still need to add a board resolution later.

"Okay, Mr. Hu, I will communicate with several directors later."

Although other directors can no longer influence the company's decisions, necessary respect is still required. Fortunately, everyone has gotten along well with each other for such a long time, and they are all accustomed to the company's management style.

After a week in Shanghai...

Hu Yangcai called Zhang Xiao and came to the Microelectronics Equipment Company.

"Director Zhang, I'm not here to rush you. I'm just here to see what you should do. You don't need to accompany me."

Hu Yang met Zhang Xiao again and found that he had lost a lot of weight. It must have been because of the heavy work pressure and lack of rest during this period.

"Mr. Hu, you are our God of Wealth and the de facto boss. How dare I not accompany you? Come on, I will show you around and treat you to dinner at noon."

Zhang Xiao smiled bitterly. In fact, Hu Yang didn't need to say anything. As long as Hu Yang stood in front of Zhang Xiao, he felt tremendous pressure.

There is no doubt about Hu Yang’s huge support for the microelectronic equipment company. Putting aside everything else, how much money has he invested in the company? How much financing has he attracted?

Zhang Xiao knew very well that the person behind Hi-tech Venture Capital Fund was still Hu Yang.

It's easy to eat someone's mouth, but it's short-handed to take advantage of others!

Zhang Xiao directly or indirectly took away a huge amount of funds from Hu Yang, but the company's current research and development of 65nm lithography machines is not progressing smoothly, and Zhang Xiao feels very sorry.

"Director Zhang, high-end lithography equipment is known as the crown jewel of modern industry. I am aware of the great technical difficulties. It is normal for companies to encounter difficulties in research and development, but there will always be a breakthrough one day, so don't pay too much attention to it.

, just treat it with a normal attitude."

Recently, microelectronic equipment has made some progress in the development of 65nm lithography machines, but has stagnated since then.

Hu Yang did not blame Zhang Xiao, but gave him some encouragement.

He knew that Zhang Xiao and his team had tried their best. There were no shortcuts in technical matters and they could only move forward step by step.

"Mr. Hu, the more you say that, the more embarrassed I become. Hey, don't say it anymore. We will definitely overcome these technical difficulties as soon as possible."

Zhang Xiao was unable to give Hu Yang an accurate time, but he hoped to win the 65nm lithography machine as soon as possible.

Zhang Xiao also knew about the crisis situation of Xintong International. During this period, he lived and ate in the company and lost more than ten kilograms.

"Mr. Zhang, your health is the most important thing. We have to do what we can. I won't say much else. I can see the hard work of you and your team."

Hu Yang walked around the company carefully, and it was already noon.

Zhang Xiao invited Hu Yang out for lunch, and then he hurried back to the microelectronic equipment company.

"This Director Zhang is really trying his best."

Hu Yang returned to Huijia International Building. Although he admired Zhang Xiao's professionalism, he did not have much hope for microelectronic equipment to achieve major technological breakthroughs in the short term.

"Mr. Hu, Mr. Wang from Huijia International Investment Pudong Company called. He wants to see you."

After resting for a while in the lounge next to the office, Hu Yang returned to the office and sat at his desk to prepare for official duties.

Wu Xinhui knocked on the door and walked in.

"Then just ask him to come up in half an hour. Just come to my office directly."

Hu Yang didn't know what Wang Qingquan wanted to do with him, so he wanted to quickly handle the few documents in his hand.

Wu Xinhui responded, turned around and retreated.

Half an hour later, Wang Qingquan arrived in front of Populus euphratica on time.

"Mr. Wang, please sit down. Tell me, what do you want from me?"

Hu Yang put down the signature pen in his hand and looked up at Wang Qingquan.

Wang Qingquan sat down on the sofa and said:

"Mr. Hu, the company has recently encountered an investment project, and the total investment involved will be relatively huge. I called Mr. Xia and told her about it. She said, boss, since you are in Shanghai anyway, let me come to you.

"

"Well, Mr. Xia, hehe...Mr. Wang, then show me the project evaluation report. I want to see if there is anything special about this project."

Hu Yang knew Xia Bing very well and knew that the other party was definitely not lazy, so he pushed this matter to himself. It was probably because of the uniqueness of the project itself.

Wang Qingquan quickly handed over a pile of information. Hu Yang took a look and saw that it read: Investment Risk Assessment of Bolong Optical Project.

Hu Yang began to read the risk assessment report. As the reading progressed, his mind was gradually attracted by the report.

Modu Bolong Optical Technology Co., Ltd. is a new enterprise established less than a year ago.

The company was founded by a returned doctor. The company belongs to the ultra-precision optical industry. Its main business direction is to develop ultra-large-scale IC manufacturing projection lithography machine exposure optical systems and realize industrialization.

"This... this optical system is the core part of the lithography machine. Do they have the technology in this area?"

After Hu Yang read the report, he couldn't help but feel excited.

High-end lithography machines have simply become a curse in Hu Yang's heart, and he dreams of realizing the localization of equipment as soon as possible.

This high-end equipment is composed of more than 30,000 parts, but the core is definitely the exposure optical system.

This system covers light sources, objective lenses, high-precision alignment devices, etc. It can be said that with this system, the research and development of domestic high-end lithography equipment will take a big step forward.

"The founder of Bolong Optics, Dr. Dai Yuanjun, once worked as a technical director at Nikon and Otech. Currently, he and his team have more than 200 patented technologies in their hands.

The company expects to have the R&D, design and mass production supply capabilities for extremely large-scale IC manufacturing projection lithography machine exposure optical system products at 110nm nodes, 90nm nodes, 28nm nodes and below within three years.

At the same time, the ultra-precision optical processing, testing, and assembly equipment that have been successfully developed, as well as high-performance microscope objectives, ultraviolet imaging detection systems and other products currently under development will also be put into the market one after another.

Such derivative products with high market value will, together with the photolithography machine exposure optical system products, jointly build the product foundation for the success of Bolong's optical market."

Wang Qingquan has been following this project for some time. He is very optimistic about the development prospects of Bolong Optics, so he talks endlessly when he opens his mouth.
