Nowadays, state-owned equity cannot control the company at all, and it is difficult for Director You to do anything he wants to do.

Furthermore, Director You still has certain illusions in his heart. If Peak Capital really has a way to raise the company's stock price, at least he will look better.

This is a contradictory psychology. You want to restore the company's performance, but you don't want to spend a large amount of money on research and development.

"Director You, I want the horse to run well, but I also want the horse not to eat grass. How can such a good thing happen in this world? If you shareholders don't support it and the company declines in the future, don't look for me."

After Li Qi finished speaking, he slammed the door and left.

This guy's temper has never been very good, and it was like this when he was at Dongke Electric.

But this person is really capable, and there is nothing you can do against someone like him who becomes a director. If you dare to get rid of him, some companies will ask him to be a manager.

After Li Qi left, Director You looked very unhappy. Speaking of which, he had finally hired Li Qi from Dongke Electric, so he had nowhere to vent his temper.

"Hey, it seems that I really made a bad move back then. The introduction of Peak Capital really attracted the wolf into the house."

Director You scolded him, but he also knew that without Peak Capital, the road to listing microelectronic equipment would never have been so smooth.

But what can be done now?

Director You couldn't help but feel waves of powerlessness.

...

Li Qi came out of Director You's office without returning to the company. He got in the car and called Hu Yang directly.

"Hello, Mr. Hu, I'm Li Qi. Are you free this afternoon? How about we go play a game?"

When he answered the phone, Hu Yang was preparing to have lunch.

Li Qi's call was unexpected, but not surprising. I think this former CEO of Dongke Electric encountered problems in microelectronic equipment, right?

"Director Li, I'll be at the golf club at two o'clock, okay?"

Hu Yang did not refuse Li Qi's invitation and directly set a time.

"Haha, thank you Mr. Hu for the face, let's see you there then!"

After Li Qi finished speaking, he hung up the phone and asked the driver to find a place to settle the lunch problem first.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Hu Yang arrived at the club on time, and Li Qi was already waiting for him here.

"Mr. Hu, please come this way!"

Li Qi was very polite and waited for Hu Yang outside, and then the two of them walked into a lounge together.

"Director Li, you are really leisurely and relaxed!"

Hu Yang sat down on the sofa and looked at Li Qi with a smile.

"Relaxing and relaxing? Mr. Hu is really good at joking. I have been very busy during this period. If I hadn't asked Mr. Hu for help, how would I have thought about it? Come on, let's have a cup of coffee first, and then we'll go play ball."

Li Qi smiled and shook his head, but did not get to the point immediately.

Hu Yang was not in a hurry and drank a cup of coffee before going to the golf course with Li Qi.

"Does Director Li come to play often?"

Everyone waved their clubs calmly. Their skills were average, and they didn't seem to be focusing on playing ball.

"Except for occasionally accompanying clients to play, I rarely come here. Mr. Hu, to be honest, I am very sorry that Microelectronics Equipment and Bolong Optics have terminated the cross-shareholding agreement. It is a pity that I was at Dongke Electric at that time.

Nowadays, one of the things that microelectronic equipment is most worried about is that if one day Bolong Optics suddenly cuts off supply, the company's production and operations will be significantly affected."

Li Qi played this shot well, and at the same time he also started to get down to business.

"Should we cut off the supply? Isn't this a joke to our foreign colleagues?"

Hu Yang replied with a smile and then hit the ball.

"Haha, some things are really hard to say. Mr. Hu, I don't require a long-term supply agreement with Bolong Optics, but can I sign a temporary supply agreement? I won't hide it from you, I plan to establish a one-year reserve.

in stock."

Li Qi did not continue to swing, but looked at Hu Yang and said seriously.

"One year's inventory? This shouldn't be a big problem. I'll discuss it with them when I get back."

Hu Yang's heart moved, and he felt that Li Qi's proposal was really worthy of consideration.

Comparatively speaking, this is much better than signing a long-term supply agreement, and Bolong Optics can also make a lot of revenue.

However, he did not agree to Li Qi immediately.

To put it bluntly, this matter is a matter for Bolong Optics. He can make the decision, but it is not necessary. In any case, we must respect the opinions of Xu Younian, Zhang Xiao, Dai Xiangjun and others.

Li Qi could not help but feel relieved when he saw that Hu Yang did not object clearly.

For microelectronic equipment, this is a no-brainer. Nowadays, the company's major shareholders do not agree to invest huge sums of money in the research and development of exposure optical systems, so they can only increase production capacity first.

The previous chaos in the company had a considerable impact. Especially the loss of some talents was a huge loss.

Fortunately, the foundation of microelectronic equipment is very strong. As long as management is strengthened and employees' benefits are improved, the production problem is expected to be completely solved within a few months.

As long as production is stable, the company's profit level will also increase simultaneously. If R&D funds are invested at this time, it is estimated that the opposition voice of the board of directors will be much smaller.

Next, Li Qi stopped talking about the company. He talked and laughed with Hu Yang, and they seemed like old friends.

After playing, Li Qi invited Hu Yang to have a meal in the clubhouse, and then the two parted ways.

The next day.

Hu Yang came to the office early in the morning, and after handling the work at hand, he took Wu Xinhui to the headquarters of Bolong Optical.

"Mr. Hu, are you finally free to come and inspect? Come on, let's go to the conference room first. We'll report to you on the company's recent situation."

Zhang Xiao and Dai Xiangjun received Hu Yang. Xu Younian was in the capital, and Hu Yang had not disturbed him before.

Hu Yang nodded, came to the small conference room, sat down, and began to listen to the work reports of the two people.

The situation at Bolong Optics is exactly the opposite of that of microelectronic equipment.

A large number of professional talents have entered the company, and the company's original technical strength is very strong. Dai Xiangjun said that the company has achieved varying degrees of breakthroughs in various directions.

Especially in the company's core business, the exposure optical system of high-end lithography machines has broken through the key technologies of the 28nm process.

In terms of the overall machine, there has also been a relatively large technological improvement in the short term. Zhang Xiao has repeatedly assured that the 45nm lithography machine will achieve mass production in about 8-10 months.

"Okay, all the work progress has exceeded my expectations. Mr. Zhang, a technical backbone from microelectronics equipment, has indeed played a key role in the development of the entire machine.

Next, employees and teams that perform well must be generously rewarded. Only in this way can the creativity and enthusiasm of all employees be stimulated.

In addition, I have one more thing to discuss with you. Yesterday, Director Li from Microelectronics Equipment came to see me. He wanted to reserve a batch of exposure optical systems. What do you think?"

During this period, Bolong Optics not only made breakthroughs in high-end lithography equipment, but also increased its market share of mid- to low-end lithography equipment.

This is not only due to the company's technological progress, but also due to the microelectronic equipment's self-destruction, which has led to a decline in production.

This increased market share, in a sense, is equivalent to giving up to the other party.

Immediately afterwards, Hu Yang told Zhang Xiao and Dai Xiangjun what Li Qi thought.

"One year's reserve of goods? He is just in case we cut off the supply. Mr. Hu, I think we can sign an agreement with them.

But in this agreement, the delivery time does not need to be fixed, just say that it will be delivered to them within 3-6 months.

Our production and R&D base has already been put into operation, and our production capacity has been greatly improved. Their order will definitely be completed in three months!"

Zhang Xiao rolled his eyes and felt that this deal could be done.

Anyway, Bolong Optics doesn't plan to run out of stock in the short term. The other party wants to reserve key parts, which really doesn't matter to the company.

Dai Xiangjun also nodded and said:

"Mr. Hu, even if we achieve mass production of high-end lithography machines, it is not easy to cut off the supply directly. The most we can do is to slowly reduce the supply volume and extend the supply time. They like to reserve, so just reserve. Anyway, it is only for one year.

of supply.”

"Okay, that's it."

Hu Yang didn't say much. Since neither Zhang Xiao nor Dai Xiangjun objected, he could reply to Li Qi later.

Of course, I still have to say hello to Xu Younian later. There is no need for Hu Yang to worry about this matter. Zhang Xiao and others will handle it themselves.

Then everyone discussed other things, and Dai Xiangjun suggested going out for dinner.

"Forget it, don't bother me. I can just have a working lunch at the company at noon. When I go to work in the afternoon, I have to go around various departments to avoid having to run back and forth."

Hu Yang was too lazy to go out to eat anymore, so he had a meal at the company at noon, and did not leave Bolong Optical until about to get off work in the afternoon.

Today, Zhang Xiao and Dai Xiangjun both asked Hu Yang, when will they start acquiring microelectronic equipment?

Populus euphratica smiled but said nothing.

He couldn't tell the specific time, he had to wait for the opportunity.

In short, we need to wait for some changes in microelectronic equipment, including problems in the other party's operations, or Peak Capital's eagerness to realize cash, etc.

On the way home, Hu Yang called Li Qi.

"Director Li, what you said yesterday is fine. You can send someone to sign a contract with Bolong Optics later."

"Haha, thank you very much. In this way, I can persist for at least one more year. Mr. Hu, don't say anything. I will treat you to a drink later, and you will be rewarded."
