RNP Chapter 637
Chapter 637
The sky was full of clouds.
Ten thousand meters high, at the top of the clouds.
A large passenger plane from Shenzhen to Zhengcheng is shuttling at lightning speed.
In the spacious and comfortable first-class cabin, Ren Zhengfei and Lei Jun are sitting side by side.
Although the two of them don’t like to make a scene when they usually travel, they basically sit in economy class.
But today, due to special circumstances, there are many things to discuss on the way.
In addition, Shenzhen, as the capital of science and technology in Longguo, gathers many high-tech enterprises.
Some technology company CEOs, such as Zhongxing, Dajiang, Mairui, etc., have also received notices to go to Zhengcheng for meetings.
Therefore, these technology company CEOs chose the same flight.
During the two and a half hour journey, they can also communicate with each other to get closer.
And today, the topics of several CEOs are no exception.
They are all thinking about and analyzing the Longguang Project Command, why they suddenly called them to a meeting.
On the airline seat, Lei Jun turned his head and looked at Ren Zhengfei and said:
“Mr. Ren, among our group of people, you are the most familiar with the lithography technology.”
“Tell me, it has only been a few months. Is it really possible for our Longguo to develop a lithography machine?”
As soon as Lei Jun said this, the chairmen of several companies sitting next to him, such as Zhongxing, Dajiang, and Mairui, all turned their curious eyes to Ren Zhengfei.
As Lei Jun said, among all the private technology companies in Longguo at present.
Hua Wei, who spends huge sums of money every year to develop chips and lithography machines, undoubtedly knows them best.
Under the gaze of several company bosses, Ren Zhengfei replied thoughtfully:
“It has only been 117 days since the Longguang project was officially established, less than four months.”
“In such a short period of time, even the chip alliance with very mature lithography technology may not be sure to produce it.”
At this point, Ren Zhengfei suddenly changed the subject:
“But… in terms of production efficiency, the West is far behind our Longguo.”
“So from the perspective of time alone, it is still impossible to draw an accurate conclusion.”
“But what is certain is that if we have a full set of technology and drawings.”
“With the speed of our Longguo, it is still very likely to produce a lithography machine in four months.”
As soon as Ren Zhengfei said this, Lei Jun and several bosses in the cockpit couldn’t help but feel excited.
To achieve the current achievements, all of the bosses are the best of the best.
If it is true as Ren Zhengfei said, Longguo has mastered the technology and drawings of the lithography machine, then there is a lot of story here.
Almost at the same time.
A possibility flashed in the minds of several CEOs.
That is, Longguo used some special means to get the full set of technology and drawings of the lithography machine from the chip alliance.
After all… it is not uncommon for countries to use espionage methods to steal technical information from each other.
In addition, Longguo has almost mobilized the whole country’s strength and made big moves in the optical technology industry chain at all costs during this period.
Combined with the above signs, if it is said that Longguo has no confidence and certainty, several technology company CEOs will definitely not believe it.
Thinking of this, Lei Jun couldn’t help rubbing his hands and said excitedly:
“If this is true, then our Longguo may really be able to develop a lithography machine this time?!”
“If it is at the 10nm level, then our Longguo semiconductor industry can easily survive this crisis.”
“If it is at the 7nm level… or even the 5nm level, then we will no longer have to look at the faces of foreigners in the future. It’s really exciting to think about it!”
Seeing Lei Jun’s mouth almost grinning to his ears, Ren Zhengfei, who was sitting next to him, immediately laughed and joked:
“Mr. Lei, you are more greedy than me, an old man.”
“If our Longguo can develop a 10nm lithography machine, I will wake up with a smile in my dreams.”
Compared to the optimistic CEOs who were chatting and laughing in a relaxed manner.
Wang Tao, chairman of Dajiang UAV, frowned and looked worried.
He is a pure pessimist who likes to put everything into the worst possible outcome.
Although this way of thinking is very tiring and will cause great psychological burden to oneself.
But it can also help one to recognize the reality more clearly, not be affected by optimistic bias, and look at problems more objectively.
It is precisely because of Wang Tao’s constant self-motivation that
, under the sense of crisis that he created for himself.
Dajiang UAV will quickly achieve a leading position in the world in a very short period of time.
It has become an existence in the field of drones that cannot be found even with a lantern.
Looking at Wang Tao’s frowning and thoughtful look, Lei Jun, who was sitting opposite him, asked:
“Mr. Wang.”
“Do you think our Longguo has successfully developed a photolithography machine this time?”
Hearing this, Wang Tao pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose and replied: “It’s hard to say.”
“If our Longguo can really develop a photolithography machine, that would be the best result.”
The latter words were too pessimistic, and Wang Tao did not say it to spoil the fun.
But the hearts of several CEOs were like mirrors.
If Longguo did not develop a photolithography machine, then there would be only two results for being summoned to Zhengcheng for a meeting this time.
Either it would fight the Western alliance to the end, and the leaders would come to encourage and encourage everyone to persevere.
Just like Ma’s famous saying: “Today is cruel, tomorrow is even crueler, and the day after tomorrow is beautiful! But most people die tomorrow night and will not see the sun the day after tomorrow!”
As for who can hold on to the end, it all depends on personal luck.
Another possibility is that Longguo will watch the entire semiconductor industry collapse.
Unable to bear the losses, it is ready to compromise with the Western alliance.
The purpose of calling everyone to come to the meeting this time is basically very clear.
It is to discuss the bottom line of the price that everyone can bear in order to allow the West to lift the chip restriction order.
Because according to the Western alliance’s usual bandit logic, as long as you give in to him, they will rip you off.
If you want to import chips in the future, the price will definitely double.
Therefore, no matter which possibility it is, it is terrible news for the CEOs of many technology companies in Longguo.
Unless Longguo can develop high-end lithography machines by itself and completely get rid of Western constraints.
Only in this way can the technology companies in Longguo really be proud of themselves and no longer be controlled by others.
Just like that…
In a mixed mood of joy and worry.
Lei Jun, Ren Zhengfei, Wang Tao and other CEOs of technology companies.
After the plane landed in Zhengcheng, they were greeted and led by local officials to the Zhengcheng Photolithography Machine Industrial Park.
