Chapter 305 Angry Lin Xiao

Walking into the conference room, there were already many people sitting inside.

Among them are people from the government, as well as people from companies such as Dianke Group, Modu Microelectronics, and Huawei Semiconductor. Of course, there are also people from many research institutes.

Because the meeting has not officially started yet, these people are all talking about their own affairs.

Ma Gaoliang was also sitting inside. He was the first to see Lin Xiao come in, so he immediately stood up and walked towards Lin Xiao, smiling: "Commander Lin, you are here."

"Director Ma." Lin Xiao nodded towards him.

Everyone else in the conference room also stood up at this time, smiling and saying hello.

"Hello, Commander Lin!"

"Finally, I met Chief Master Lin in person. He is indeed very young!"

"Chief Commander Lin is young and promising. Our country is very lucky!"

"..."

These people have respect in their words, and they also have a sense of flattery.

One of them, a middle-aged man, also walked up directly. When he reached Lin Xiao's side, he tried to put his arm around Lin Xiao's shoulders. At the same time, he said: "General Master Lin..."

However, at this time, Lin Xiao directly avoided his arm and avoided his embrace.

The man was immediately embarrassed, but he quickly retracted his hand and asked as if nothing happened just now: "Hello, Mr. Lin, I am Xu Zhiqing, the general manager of Modu Microelectronics Equipment Company. I have always been I want to meet and talk with General Master Lin, but I didn’t expect to meet you until today.”

Lin Xiao looked confused: "I remember that except yesterday when I heard that you planned to meet me and then I rejected you, I have never heard that you wanted to meet me before?"

Xu Zhiqing's face suddenly became more embarrassed. Unexpectedly, Lin Xiao didn't. After a while, he said: "I was also very busy before."

Lin Xiao shook his head and said, "Forget it, General Manager Xu, let's just sit down and sit down. We'll talk about it later if we need anything."

Then he walked around and looked at the seats on the field. There were two seats at the top. One was for people from the government, and the other was supposed to be for him. However, he did not sit in his own seat. He went around and sat on the seat at the back with Kong Huaan.

When the people present saw this scene, they all looked at each other and realized that something was going to be difficult.

The chief engineer seems a little dissatisfied with today's meeting?

But think about it, when the cake is divided today, it is not surprising that someone like Lin Xiao, who is mainly engaged in scientific research, is dissatisfied with this.

After all, there are quite a few scientists like Lin Xiao.

When Ma Gaoliang saw this scene, he was obviously the most anxious among the people in the room. Whether it was personal or official matters, he did not want to see Lin Xiao dissatisfied, so he quickly walked to Lin Xiao's side and said: "General Master Lin , what’s going on? If you have any opinions, tell me and I’ll make some adjustments.”

When everyone present heard Ma Gaoliang's question, they all turned their attention to Lin Xiao again, wondering what he would say.

Lin Xiao glanced at Ma Gaoliang, and finally gave him a face and said directly: "I originally thought that after the success of the X-ray project, the first meeting should be to prepare for the future technology research and development. Continue to improve the technical level and ensure that we can always make proposals at a world-class level, and then discuss how to arrange the future whereabouts of every researcher who has worked hard in the X-ray project and improve their treatment."

"As a result, the first meeting I hold now is to argue with you about who deserves the most credit, and then divide the cake. It's simply disappointing."

"Although the X-ray project is successful now, if you want to continue to succeed in the future, you need to continue to invest in research. If you only think about the benefits to yourself, then I think it will be okay not to launch it."

His voice was neither loud nor quiet, but what he said made everyone in the conference room look ashamed.

But at this time, Xu Zhiqing, the general manager of Modu Microelectronics, was the first to stand up and refute: "General Manager Lin, we all understand what you said, but only after we have allocated it well can we better Let’s discuss this matter. Whoever gets the most will then invest more in it.”

Obviously, Lin Xiao didn't give him face just now, which also made him angry.

Lin Xiao glanced at him and just said lightly: "So what you mean is that you don't let the hawk out when you don't see the rabbit, right? If scientific research is done with your spirit of not seeing the rabbit, don't let the hawk out, I'm afraid we won't even be able to do the Shenzhou V Can’t even get the number up?”

Xu Zhiqing suddenly froze and opened his mouth, not knowing how to continue to refute. For them, it was easy to say whether they would continue to invest in research and development, but this was all based on the benefits they could obtain.

They all know that this is not good. This is equivalent to Lin Xiao digging out a gold mine, and there are more gold mines under this gold mine, but if you want to continue digging, you need to invest money. Then Lin Xiao is looking for someone to come. Invest money to dig gold mines together, and then everyone will share the entire gold mine together, but now they plan to divide the gold mines that have been dug out, earn the money first, and then discuss investing money.

Obviously, this idea is a bit greedy.

However, this is actually a tacit understanding between these companies. Everyone abides by this tacit understanding, no one says it out, and then everyone divides the cake based on their ability.

So when he wanted to find Lin Xiao yesterday, he also hoped that Lin Xiao could help him in the future, because as the chief designer, Lin Xiao must have a say in this matter. After all, the final allocation needs to be reported to the top, and Lin Xiao The suggestion was more important, but it was a pity that Lin Xiao did not agree yesterday.

As a result, they didn't expect that there would be a meeting today, and Lin Xiao immediately told them everything they were thinking about.

For a moment, most of the people present looked a little confused, but they had no reason to refute Lin Xiao, so they all lowered their heads and didn't say a word.

Seeing that these people were silent, Lin Xiao shook his head and said, "I'll just sit here. You can discuss it as you like. Anyway, I won't sign the final result."

Then he lay back, took out his mobile phone and started playing.

The atmosphere on the court suddenly sank again. If Lin Xiao did not sign in the end, no matter how much they discussed, it was not certain whether the superiors would agree in the end.

Ma Gaoliang glared at Xu Zhiqing, then patted Lin Xiao on the shoulder and said with a smile: "General Master Lin, Professor Lin, please calm down. If you feel dissatisfied, we will push back today's agenda, and then Tell me what you think, after all, our meeting today is not just about reaching a conclusion, there will definitely be many more meetings in the future."

Ma Gaoliang is the highest-ranking person in the field, so there is no problem in postponing these agendas or anything like that.

When he heard what he said, Lin Xiao simply stood up and said, "I have no other ideas. My current idea is to concentrate on doing big things."

"We have now developed a photolithography machine and solved the problem of the photolithography machine, but what about the process?"

"Now we have only developed a 5nm process, but common chip processes on the market now include 7nm, 10nm, and 12nm. Huaxin International has a 14nm process. These previous processes are also very important."

“According to the formula of lithography machine resolution, CD=K1*λ/NA, our X-ray lithography machine relies on the shorter wavelength of X-ray, and our research process is actually simpler than their EUV and DUV research processes. "

"Just like the 14nm chips made by DUV, they actually go through a lot of exposures, which makes their actual process quite complicated, but our X-ray lithography machine can completely avoid this."

"Using the analogy of fighting a boss in the game, it is equivalent to their lithography machine being an ordinary weapon. If they want to defeat the boss, they have to use more skills, but our X-ray lithography machine is a For more powerful weapons, we don’t need to study particularly complicated techniques, everything can be simplified.”

"However, we have to stop studying technology, otherwise, we still won't be able to defeat BOSS. Therefore, my suggestion is that we set up a company similar to TSMC to specialize in X-ray lithography machine technology and undertake chip foundries. work."

"As for the company that produces X-ray lithography machines, a separate company has also been established to continue researching technologies that can improve the performance of X-ray lithography machines."

"If you want to share the benefits, I will prepare two companies for you to distribute."

"But," having said this, Lin Xiao looked at the people present, "I would strongly request that the profits you earn should be used in addition to the necessary funds to maintain the company's operations and as bonuses for scientific research talents. , at least 50% of the remaining money needs to be used in R\u0026D investment.”

"I'm not worried that these two companies will run out of money. Our X-ray lithography machine is definitely a better lithography machine than the EUV lithography machine now because we don't need a mask. We use a digital mask. version, this will leave a lot of cost for those chip design companies, so they will definitely choose our X-ray lithography machines. In the future, X-ray lithography machines will not have to worry about sales at all. Secondly, our 5nm process will only It is better than the 4nm process currently mentioned by TSMC, which will be highlighted at our upcoming press conference in a few days."

"So even if these two companies don't have leaders, I won't worry about not making money. So in the future, the leaders of these two companies must accept that at least half of the money their companies make has nothing to do with them."

"The above are my requirements."

Speaking of this, Lin Xiao looked at the people present. As expected, the people present frowned tightly because of the conditions he mentioned. It was obvious that they were very dissatisfied with this request.

Lin Xiao couldn't help but shook his head again, and then said: "Everyone, how many of our companies are among the top 100 in R\u0026D investment in the world?"

"Now, I think it's time to add two more."

"That's all."

After saying that, he sat down again.

The conference room fell silent again.

However, Ma Gaoliang, who was next to Lin Xiao, opened his mouth and asked after a while: "Then Chief Lin, you... don't plan to continue to develop semiconductors?"

Lin Xiao allowed Hua to possess photolithography machines and even technology from scratch, but now it seems that he doesn't intend to take care of it anymore?

Lin Xiao smiled and said: "From now on, I will only provide help and will not invest too much energy in this."

"This..." Ma Gaoliang was helpless and asked, "Then what do you plan to study in the future?"

"Go back to school and take classes for a while, and take a look at some theoretical research."

Ma Gaoliang couldn't help but said: "How about... you think about it again? There is still a lot that needs you in the research and development of semiconductors."

Lin Xiao smiled, "I said, I will also provide help in the future, but in the research and development of semiconductors, I cannot do everything by myself. The production of semiconductors is a labor-intensive job, and technical R\u0026D is also an R\u0026D-intensive job, which requires more talents to join it.”

"So, I will guide these talents, but unless necessary technical needs, I will not come again. In fact, even the 7nm, 10nm and other processes I just mentioned can be completely followed by my 5nm Just research and develop the technology, and I believe that domestic talents can also do this."

"And myself..."

"I think my mission is to make our country stronger in more aspects, not just semiconductors. Now that semiconductors have become stronger, it's time for me to change direction."

Lin Xiao's words silenced Ma Gaoliang, and then he nodded solemnly: "I understand, and I will report your words to the superiors."

"Um."

Lin Xiao nodded.

There seemed to be nothing interesting to do in the following meeting. The original cake-sharing meeting turned into a reflection meeting because of Lin Xiao.

However, Lin Xiao believes that as long as this group of people listens even a little bit, he will no longer need to worry about the decline of Huaguo Semiconductor in the future.

Of course, even if they didn't listen, he could still make them listen.
