Chapter 734 The Last Highland (1)

Director Wang was fine, but Dr. Liang was very happy.He is currently leading the team to carry out an important technological breakthrough. If Director Wang hadn't been tough, he wouldn't want to waste this time.

Cooperate with an enterprise to build a joint laboratory?To be honest, Dr. Liang is not optimistic.Youdao is to take advantage of people's hands and take funds from companies. Isn't the research project decided by others?

But seeing Populus euphratica for the first time today, the impression left on him was very good.

"Mr. Hu, Mr. Xia, thank you for your attention to us. We have no opinion on the establishment of the joint laboratory and the talent training plan. Let's look at the specific details."

Director Wang is also a cheerful person and agreed to the plan in principle.

"After the principles are settled, it's easy to discuss the details. Mr. Xia, send someone over later, and try to finalize this project as soon as possible."

The two sides hit it off and reached an agreement on issues of principle.

For specific negotiations, the personnel sent by Xia Bing will contact Dr. Liang.After the two parties reach an agreement, Xia Bing will sign a contract with Director Wang.

"Mr. Hu, Mr. Xia, I would like to invite you two to visit our unit. I wonder if you are interested? By the way, Dr. Liang still has a research project in hand, so he can't accompany him."

After we chatted for a while, director Wang invited Hu Yang and Xia Bing to visit the institute.He also saw that Dr. Liang was absent-minded, so he took the initiative to send him away.

After the joint laboratory was established, Dr. Liang was the director of the laboratory.Otherwise, Director Wang wouldn't have called this nerd over today.

Hu Yang and Xia Bing didn't care about this, they visited the Institute of Microelectronics accompanied by Director Wang and Academician Lu.

After the visit, Hu Yang and Xia Bing said goodbye.

I came here today to talk about principles. As long as everyone does not object, this cooperation project can enter the substantive negotiation stage.

After Hu Yang's car left the research institute, Director Wang said to Lu Yiming: "You are really awesome! Didn't you expect that the domestic semiconductor companies can be suppressed by North America? It's amazing!"

"He, he is very capable, and you will gradually understand. Wang Suo, God of Wealth, I found it for you. You are not allowed to lose the chain."

Lu Yiming made a joke and followed Director Wang to his office.

In the car, Xia Bing looked at Hu Yang and asked suddenly: "Boss, how much money do you plan to let us invest?"

The investment in the joint laboratory can be large or small, depending on what Hu Yang intends to do.

"It's easier to get things done when you have more money. Let's invest [-] billion in the early stage, and add more later. Mr. Xia, this matter is very important to the entire Huijia Department, so don't be reluctant to spend money."

Hu Yang did not mention this project at the regular meeting of the decision-making committee.

This kind of thing itself is difficult to be effective in the short term. It requires long-term investment regardless of gains and losses, and it needs to be pushed forward by himself.

"The money is yours anyway, so don't blame me if you lose money."

Xia Bing made a joke with a smile, for Hu Yang's orders, she has always been carried out to the letter.

"Don't worry, you can't lose money, this is a once-and-for-all investment."

The joint laboratory will conduct basic research related to semiconductors and cultivate talents in various fields.Due to the wide coverage, the final investment will be an astronomical figure.

However, these investments will be paid in advance by Huijia International Investment in the early stage, and will be shared by the companies under the Huijia Group in the later stage.

For example, if United has a senior technical talent in the laboratory and is finally hired by NSI, then NSI will pay the joint laboratory a considerable amount of fees.This fee can be regarded as a "transfer fee".

The technical achievements developed by the laboratory are also licensed to various companies for a fee. Of course, the cost is not too expensive, because they are all their own people after all.

What's more, the existing talents of various enterprises can also come here for advanced studies, and they also need to pay fees.

In addition, the results of basic research will belong to Huijia International Investment.

The next day, Xia Bing left the capital and returned to the deep sea.The negotiation team of Huijia International Investment immediately came to the Microelectronics Institute and started negotiations with the other party.

The negotiation process was smoother than expected, and an agreement was reached in less than 20 days.So Xia Bing came to the capital again and signed an agreement with Director Wang to establish a joint laboratory.

According to the agreement, all the funds required by the joint laboratory will be borne by Huijia International Investment.Microelectronics provides the required researchers, and the insufficient manpower will be recruited from outside.

For the research results, Huijia International Investment enjoys the patent right.However, scientists participating in research projects have the right to publish papers.

All technical achievements (including patented technology) can be used free of charge after being authorized by Microelectronics Institute, but large-scale commercial applications are not included.

In other words, the researched technology can be used by the Institute of Microelectronics for free.For example, if the Institute of Microelectronics wants to apply scientific research results to national defense construction, that's no problem.But if you want to make money in the civilian market, that's not allowed.

The Institute of Microelectronics can apply to the joint laboratory, and after obtaining the license, it can use the advanced equipment and instruments of the laboratory for free.

The management mechanism of the joint laboratory is similar to the decision-making committee system of Huijia Department, which will be held by five senior scientists.

Two of them belong to the Institute of Microelectronics, and the other three belong to Huijia International Investment.The director of the laboratory is Dr. Liang, who is responsible for the daily scientific research work of the laboratory.The deputy director is dispatched by Huijia International Investment and is mainly responsible for daily management.

The laboratory will be built in the high-tech zone. After the funds are in place, the preliminary construction work can be carried out.

"Boss, after the agreement was signed, I allocated 1 million yuan to the project preparation office. The land is ready-made, and the bidding for the civil works can be carried out immediately. After the bidding is completed, I will allocate the project funds to them , and equipment purchases.”

The initial investment of 100 billion yuan is not in place at one time.

Xia Bing will pay in installments and in batches, and strengthen supervision. It is necessary to make sure that the accounts are clear, and every penny is spent where it should be spent.

"Well, it's up to you. In addition, the supervision work can be handed over to Jingcheng Company, and I will greet Manager Ye later."

Hu Yang nodded. It will take some time for the joint laboratory to operate. The main work in the early stage is to do a good job in infrastructure.

"Boss, the company has appointed a project leader, and I will return to the deep sea at night. Do you have anything else to explain?"

Xia Bing will not be directly involved in the project itself.Huijia International Investment has arranged for a special person to be in charge, and she still has her job.

"Nothing for now, I wish you a safe journey."

Hu Yang smiled, sent Xia Bing to the elevator, and told her not to be too tired, and pay more attention to rest after returning.

winter to spring
Hu Yang's parents returned to Yangcheng after celebrating the New Year in Beijing.

This Spring Festival, sister Hu Yue and brother-in-law Ge Hongbing did not come to the capital.The two of them took their daughter to spend the New Year with the child's grandpa and grandma.

Xiao Yifei also started to go to kindergarten every day after the year. Tian Sichun not only took care of the children, but also had time to do some charity work.

Hu Yang still goes to work in the company every morning, sometimes goes out in the afternoon, and sometimes goes to exercise. In short, his life is more leisurely than before.

Therefore, when Chen Jialin specially took the time to visit him from the deep sea, a jealous expression hung on his face.

"Brother Hu, I'm busy all day, but you live a happy life here, it's not fair!"

Chen Jialin was sitting in the courtyard of the courtyard. In the early spring of the capital, it was warm and cold, and this guy was still wrapped in a thick winter coat.

"What's so unfair? You can also try to delegate some of the power. Assistant Wu, tell them to bring up the pot quickly. Look at Mr. Chen shivering with cold."

Hu Yang smiled slightly, not intending to discuss this topic with the other party.

Today's Wanshi Technology is definitely the king of the world's foundry, and has no rivals in the world.

Chen Jialin enjoys this title very much. Although he usually has very little free time, he is unwilling to let go of any power in his hands.

Chen Jialin gave Populus euphratica a blank look, but at this time Lao Liao had already served a copper hot pot, and the red charcoal fire seemed warm to him, so he was not in the mood to argue with Populus euphratica immediately.

After a while, the food and wine were served, and Hu Yang and Chen Jialin sat in the yard, began to boil the mutton, clinked glasses from time to time, and drank two mouthfuls of Erguotou.

"Brother Hu, North America didn't suppress us this time, do you think they will just give up? In fact, the other party doesn't have much to do now.

The domestic economy is speeding up to catch up with North America, and it is currently clinging to North America's back, basically forming a pattern of two strong players. "

Chen Jialin likes to eat Lao Liao's boiled mutton, he thinks it is better than the restaurants outside.

"You are right when you say that there are two strong players. Although Europe is also very strong, but dozens of countries come together, and there is always a feeling of making up the numbers.

As for North America, the other party will definitely not be reconciled.But we have survived the most difficult moment, and the future must be better day by day. "

Hu Yang took a sip of the wine, feeling infinite emotion in his heart.

At this time last year, the entire Huijia family, including him, was still gritting their teeth and fighting for survival.Today, one year later, he is no longer thinking about this issue, but about how to live a better life.

"Yes, yes, we are getting better day by day, so our opponents will definitely decline day by day. Brother Hu, there is good news. Do you still remember Li Kailong's acquisition of the Canadian energy company?

Recently, I heard people say that Canadian energy company has a big problem in its operation, and its stock price has also plummeted.Hey, it's Li Kailong's turn to cry now. It is said that the Li family lost hundreds of billions of Hong Kong dollars this time. Are you surprised? "

Among the forces Chen Jialin hates the most, Li Kailong and his family rank first, followed by North American NGOs in Xiangjiang.

He didn't need to pretend in front of Hu Yang at all, so he unabashedly gloated over the huge loss of the Li family.

"This is great news! Come on, Young Master Chen, let's have a toast for this."

Hu Yang laughed, although he had foreseen this incident, he was still very happy when it came to an end.

Whether it is Li Kailong or the Li family, they are all opponents and enemies.The enemy has suffered, of course we must celebrate well.

"Brother Hu, I heard that ASML's EUV lithography machine has been developed, but it has not been announced to the public yet. What about ours? Is there any hope within a year?"

The two of them had fun for a long time, and Chen Jialin changed the topic in a timely manner.

Hu Yang's face froze, and he smiled wryly: "It's hard to say, judging from the current progress, it can be choked. When it comes to EUV, it is completely different from the previous technology path. There are not many things to learn from, and we still have to work hard!"

ASML's lithography machines bring together the top technologies of various industrial powers in the world.Even the funds are supported by various international giants. In this regard, the Huijia Department is far behind.

For example, the research and development of ASML EUV lithography machine, including Taipower, Intel, S Star and other giants have invested huge sums of money.After successful research and development, there is no need to worry about sales.

"This is a little troublesome! If it is stuck on the equipment, no matter how advanced the process technology of Xintong International is, once it reaches the 7nm node, it will be thrown away by international giants such as Teclast and S Star. At that time, if you want to catch up, you may It will be difficult."

Chen Jialin shook his head. He also knew that Bolong Optics and microelectronics could not be blamed for this incident.

You must know that according to the "Wassenaar Agreement", there are many cutting-edge products that Europe and RB will not sell to China at all.It is impossible for Bolong Optics to obtain components from all over the world like ASML.

Therefore, the EUV lithography machine can only be completed by Huijia itself and some domestic enterprises.This difficulty is really great!
If this is a competition, then it is a competition between one country and all the developed countries in the world, and there is no fairness at all.

But it's meaningless to continue talking about this topic, Chen Jialin stopped talking and tried to talk to Hu Yang about some pleasant things.

The next day.

Chen Jialin left the capital and went to Zhongyuan City, where Wanshi Technology has a large production base.

And Hu Yang brought Wu Xinhui and others to Bolong Optics early in the morning, and met Xu Younian and Dai Xiangjun.

Stimulated by yesterday's topic, Hu Yang came here today to listen to a report on the progress of EUV research and development.

Both Xu Younian and Dai Xiangjun looked sad. The progress of the two core systems of the EUV lithography machine, the optical exposure system, and the light source system, is not very satisfactory.

"Where is the problem? The problem of funds? The problem of talents? Or the problem of technical reserves?"

The research and development of EUV lithography machine has actually been broken down into several subsystems.For example, the light source system is mainly researched by the affiliated laser company and Checheng Optical Machine Institute.

Hu Yang didn't think it would be easy, but after such a long time, why did it progress so slowly?

Xu Younian immediately replied:

"Mr. Hu, there are some problems in the aspects you mentioned. But the biggest problem is that every subsystem needs to be tackled domestically, and international procurement is becoming more and more difficult."

Dai Xiangjun also said immediately: "Yes, over the past six months, North America's international blockade against us has intensified, and the things that could be bought before are not available now."
