Xu Zhou couldn't restrain his excitement when he saw that the Qinglong EDA in the super brain system had changed from the previous gray state to a lit state.
So far, the two biggest problems with the lithography machine have been solved.
The remaining process issues are already included in the large technology package of the photolithography machine.
"I have to hurry up and write Qinglong, but fortunately it's all ready-made."
The writing time basically doesn't take long. For Xu Zhou, as long as he learns relevant knowledge points through the system and accumulates proficiency, he can unlock skills.
Once these skills are unlocked, it will appear in your mind as if you have really learned them.
In this way, it will be as if he made it himself without encountering any obstacles.
"Start construction and strive to launch it together with the photolithography machine."
After speaking, Xu Zhou turned on the computer and continued working.
…
On the other side, there is a production line jointly built by SMIC and Longke Academy.
Zhou Guofu and Zhang An were looking nervously at the super machine tool.
"Xiao Zhang, is this the last batch?"
"Yes, Mr. Zhou, with a total of hundreds of thousands of parts and nearly two months of 24-hour continuous processing, we seem to be really close to success."
Zhou Guofu took a deep breath, his face showing memories and emotions.
Looking back on the days when I was so busy trying to conquer 14 nanometers, it seems that they were not that long ago.
But now they are about to witness the birth of 1-nanometer lithography machine.
This feeling really feels like a dream.
"Fortunately, there is a super machine tool designed by Academician Xu, otherwise I don't know when the time will come."
"Yes, in a sense, Xiao Xu is really the savior of the Dragon Kingdom. These are things I never dreamed of before. But now, as long as all the parts are completed today, we can assemble it in three days!"
"It's different now, Mr. Zhou, our Dragon Kingdom's chips are about to shock the world!"
The two people, one old and one young, looked at each other and both smiled.
The weather got a little cold at the end of the month.
Early in the morning, all senior executives of SMIC gathered in the top-level conference room.
Yi Liangfei also appeared in the conference hall at the same time, which was rare. After Liu Zhongmin took Xu Zhou in, he saw Yi Liangfei nodded to the two of them without making too much contact.
"Xiao Xu, we are on the sidelines and mainly spectators. No matter what the outcome is, we don't need to show up."
"Okay Dean."
Xu Zhou nodded, and then found an inconspicuous seat for Liu Zhongmin to sit down.
The time came to 6:30 in the morning, and all the available seats were basically occupied.
In addition to the senior management of SMIC, the rest here are scientific researchers like Xu Zhou or its development team, and of course there are also official personnel from Longguo.
It's just that everyone is sitting on the side, even Liangfei is sitting next to him, but the person who really takes the main seat is a new face that Xu Zhou has never seen before.
A man about 40 years old.
Xu Zhou glanced at his name tag. It read that he was the director of external business negotiations at SMIC, and his name was Sima Sheng. It was a name that people could remember at a glance.
"Everyone, there is still half an hour. Let's get ready. We will officially start the video consultation meeting."
Sima Sheng sat down and straightened his clothes, and then the scene was so quiet waiting for the meeting to begin.
It’s just that everyone doesn’t have the pressure and tension of previous negotiations.
On the contrary, everyone has a kind of expectation.
Just two days ago, SMIC received an email notification from Synopsys that a negotiation meeting on EDA procurement would begin in two days.
As for their purpose, SMIC has long been aware of it.
Everyone knows that this purchase will be a one-sided crushing.
But just when everyone was disheartened, the senior management of SMIC suddenly received a notice and sent ten technicians to Longke Academy to participate in the use test of the new EDA.
The news immediately shocked everyone when it came out.
How come EDA was created so quietly!
And when the ten people who participated in the test came back, they all had extremely excited expressions on their faces.
The senior executives only knew among this group of people that this test was better than they knew!
To sum up in these people’s words, Synopsys’ EDA is shit!
At this time, the senior management were dumbfounded. They thought it would be great if it could barely replace Synopsys, but now it has received such an evaluation!
You must know that the ten people involved in this test are all top technical personnel within the company. If they say it is easy to use, it is the absolute testimonial!
It wasn't until this moment that everyone understood.
As the helmsman of the company, why did Lin Liangfei take no action at all during this period of time?
No order was even given to find a replacement.
It turns out that a great god is waiting here!
And now, this negotiation has been reversed without even realizing it!
Time passed quickly, at seven o'clock sharp, the two sides started the video conference.
When the big screen lights up, the person opposite doesn't seem ready.
"Hey, you guys are so early."
"I can't help it. It's what I was asked to do. I just wanted to have a cup of coffee before I came in."
"Damn, rainy days suck, why does it have to be tonight, I have a date waiting for me."
"There's nothing I can do about it. I just want to make do with the schedule in Long Kingdom. After all, I think it's more acceptable to get off work late than to get up early."
"Haha, that's true, oh! Beautiful lady, the weather is so cold, I suggest you wear more clothes."
"Thank you for your concern. I think compared to the weather, the mood in Long Kingdom will be colder now, right?"
"The video has started, please pay attention to your remarks."
A series of English exchanges came out, which seemed a bit messy.
This made Sima Sheng frown slightly.
These guys were still as arrogant as ever and didn't take this meeting seriously at all!
"Hello sir, I think if there's no problem we can get started!"
Sima Sheng reminded him timely.
Only then did the person on the other side react with a smile and said with a smile:
"Sorry sir, we just finished dinner here and it took a little time."
Although his tone was polite, his remarks were full of casual arrogance.
They actually delayed such an important meeting because of the dinner issue. This was because they did not take SMIC's Long Guofang representative seriously!
Obviously, from their perspective, this meeting was no different from the past.
As a result, Longguo was begging them to supply more products and lower prices.
Sima Sheng did not hesitate and just continued to say politely:
"Okay, then Mr. Gray, can we start? I also want to finish early so I can have breakfast."
After hearing this, Gray frowned slightly.
People sitting in the negotiating position have extremely meticulous observation skills.
You can properly judge the other person's mental state with just one word or action.
But now Sima Sheng was still thinking leisurely and joking. It felt like a dying patient opening champagne to celebrate. It had a weird feeling.
But he didn't pay too much attention.
Synopsys' advantage has been accumulated over many years, and this advantage has made them accustomed to being at a high point.
Where can I think too much?
So Gray smiled and nodded:
"You are right sir, I think this will be a pleasant and speedy meeting."
"Then let's officially begin."
Sima Sheng's lips curled up into a smile.
It's pleasant, but I'm afraid it won't be you who will be happy later.
