Rebirth: My 80s

Click, click, click!

The press conference hall, which was prepared on short notice, was packed with people.

Below the small platform, the open space outside the seats was filled with guns and cannons.

After Li Jiankun appeared on the stage, there were constant shutter sounds and flashes of light.

After Li Jiankun was sent onto the small platform, Fugui, who was waiting on the side of the stage, felt as if ants were crawling all over his body even though he was wearing sunglasses.

There was a mahogany podium on the small platform. Li Jiankun stood at the back and glanced below.

There were more reporters present than he had imagined.

Looking at the colorful and diverse media logos, they come from all over the place.

Li Jiankun, dressed in comfortable casual clothes, gestured to the audience, indicating that reporters could start asking questions.

Swish swish!

Every reporter in the audience raised his hand high.

Li Jiankun flipped the cards casually.

Reporter: "Pricing the Longteng 1 at $0.1 is clearly an act of malicious competition. Do you want to explain this?"

Li Jiankun (shrugged): "I hope that you won't ask such non-technical questions next. I will answer you -

“Why should I explain? Do I need to explain?

“Many people only see the price cut of Longteng 1, but ignore what happened before.

“Someone wants to kill Huadian, am I just going to sit there and wait for death?

“The price reduction of Longteng 1 is, firstly, a response to the powerful; secondly, it is for self-protection.

"next."

Li Jiankun continued to flip the cards.

Reporter: "Excuse me, wasn't it Huadian that started this matter?"

Li Jiankun: "I believe many people think so, which is also the purpose of holding today's press conference. We have prepared some materials and will distribute them to everyone for review."

As Li Jiankun finished speaking, staff members distributed the information that had been prepared earlier to the reporters one by one.

Li Jiankun continued:

“This data reflects the production cost of Longteng 1 in detail. Anyone who doesn’t believe it can go and check it out. Industry insiders can tell the authenticity at a glance.

“As you can see, with all raw materials produced and purchased independently in mainland China and the advantage of cheap labor costs in mainland China, the ex-factory price of Longteng 1 is set at US$0.99, which is not a loss.

“So what’s the point of talking about malicious competition?

"As a new DRAM chip supplier, we need to open up the market as quickly as possible and adopt the method of small profits but quick turnover. Is there a problem?

“Competitors can’t cut costs to this extent, so is it our fault?

“Only those who know the inside story know how many years Huadian has been preparing to manufacture chips.”

Li Jiankun said with a look of nostalgia:

"In the early 1980s, when the global chip market was still dominated by the United States and Japan, my partners and I were already in a small room separated by wooden boards in Zhongguancun, the capital of mainland China, discussing the independent development of more advanced lithography machines.

"With almost no foundation, in order to create the Longteng 1, Huadian Group acquired more than companies and built more than factories in the mainland through cooperation.

"After the construction of the Huadian Industrial Park in the mainland, the equipment that had been arranged, such as the lithography machine, was not put into operation for several years. It took until my lithography machine company developed the fourth-generation lithography machine, and then the entire machine was replaced with a new one.

“We’ve paid so much.

"Look at some of our competitors who are now criticizing us. They can easily purchase a full set of chip production equipment from other regions and start production immediately. They use what others already have, but cannot reduce costs. They also slander us for malicious competition without understanding the situation. I am too lazy to comment on them."

What Li Jiankun meant is self-evident.

Not to mention anything else, it just so happens that the Korean media has been making different voices, like a breath of fresh air, causing a huge impact. After Li Jiankun turned the card over again, the topic immediately jumped to this.

Reporter: "Samsung Semiconductor claims to expand its scale and face challenges head-on, and is determined to fight Huadian to the end. Their executives also called you a nouveau riche. What do you think of this?"

Let’s put aside irrational thinking.

It must be admitted that Samsung Semiconductor is very capable.

In their previous lives, they were not only one of the world's three largest DRAM giants, but also the industry leader.

Their countercyclical investment not only eliminated countless competitors, but also gave birth to many advanced technologies.

The world's first 50GB DRAM chip using 1nm process.

The first 3D DRAM packaging technology.

Samsung was the first to come up with this.

Therefore, it doesn’t matter for the time being whether Huadian wants to eliminate other competitors or not.

Li Jiankun (word by word): "In the future, there will be no Samsung Semiconductor."

Hey!

……

……

Tarrytown, New York.

The news that "great changes will take place in the Sea of ​​Azov on September 20th" spread like a plague within the cult.

At least that's what the title suggests.

plague!

Although the source of the news was obscure, he was able to track it down.

Damn Kim Chang-won!

Boom boom boom!

There was a sound coming from the open door.

Wen Xianming, who was sitting behind a 19th century European antique desk, glanced over and said, "I hope to hear good news."

The man leaned over and said, “I’m sorry to disappoint you.

"It was found that Jin Changyuan and his four companions did not return to China. They went to Eastern Europe earlier than everyone else. They should have arrived by now, but news came from the area around the Sea of ​​Azov that they were not seen. They must have hidden themselves."

Snapped!

Wen Xianming slapped the desk.

The man at the door shuddered and bent even lower.

Wen Xianming stared at him, narrowed his eyes slightly, and shouted, "Anything else?"

"……yes.

"There is news that the information about September 20th came from the world's richest man, Jack Lee, who also said that he is a person favored by the gods of the East and can communicate with the ancient gods of the East at any time."

Wen Xianming thought, how come I am not surprised at all!

The news of "September 20th" was spread by Jin Changyuan and his four companions, who had just returned from that country.

Jin Changyuan also reported to him that Jack Lee could communicate with God.

It is obvious that this new information was released by Jin Changyuan and his four companions.

"Find out where these four guys are hiding as soon as possible and bring them back to me!"

"Yes!"

When the person at the door was about to leave, Wen Xianming stopped him and asked, "Do you believe that there will be a big change in the Sea of ​​Azov on September 20?"

"Of course I don't believe it!"

There was worry in Wen Xianming's eyes. Even though he didn't believe it, that brat Jack Lee had caused him trouble time and again.

"I block the news. I don't want the news to get out of the United States and to organize some activities to dissuade more people from going to the Sea of ​​Azov."

The person at the door responded and bowed to leave.

Wen Xianming stood up from the matching antique upholstered chair, walked to the window sill, and muttered to himself, "What tricks can the sea play?

"Isn't it a trick this time?"

This is the thought.

Wen Xianming's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately called his servant and ordered, "I want to meet someone who knows about the topography of Eastern Europe, especially the Sea of ​​Azov... Geologists, ocean experts, all of them, bring them all to me."

……

evening.

In a restaurant at the manor.

Wen Xianming hosted a banquet for several experts and scholars.

From these experts, we learned that although the Sea of ​​Azov is called a "sea" and has a decent area of ​​more than 30,000 square kilometers, its depth is not as deep as some rivers.

The average depth is only eight meters.

The deepest point is only fourteen meters.

It is the shallowest sea in the world.

In the worst weather, the waves can barely reach a few meters high.

In other words, in this sea, even the mighty forces of nature cannot create any waves.

What’s more, people?

The rumor clearly stated: "On September 20, there will be a huge change in the Sea of ​​​​Azov."

The key point is the word "great change".

Doesn't Jack Lee think that throwing a few detonators in there, creating a few waves and killing a group of fish is a big change?

Wen Xianming suddenly felt calm and even a little excited.

After dinner, I returned to the study.

Wen Xianming suddenly had an idea, called someone in, and began to try to contact Jack Lee——

It shouldn't be hard to get in touch.

I have also read the document title of the press conference held by Jack Lee in Hong Kong City yesterday.

Sure enough, the servant who was sitting in front of the desk and making a phone call suddenly picked up the receiver, turned around and said that he had made the call.

Wen Xianming walked over, took the red microphone, put it to his ear, and said in English with a smile:

"Hello, Mr. Li."

"I didn't feel good to receive your call."

"Haha! Your feeling is very accurate."

"Oh?"

"I want to ask you a question first: We don't have any deep hatred, right? Why do you want to deal with me so deliberately?"

"Do I need a reason to deal with an old charlatan like you?"

"Then I understand. It's like this. I want to remind you. You should know that you have too many subordinates, how can you manage them all? If the great changes in the sea predicted by you on September 20th don't happen... You slander me so much, and my children love me very much. At that time, some disobedient ones may come to kill you, so you must be careful."

"Oh, thank you for your reminder."

"have a good dream."

After making this phone call, Wen Xianming felt even happier.

Although the little charlatan was good at cultivating his Qi, he could still see him trembling even through the receiver.

It’s like the other party mortgaging its American assets and recalling its own spokesperson.

Speaking of the anger of three million people... Well, not that much. Due to the news blockade, the children in Japan and South Korea probably don’t know much about the situation, but even if it’s just the United States and the Sea of ​​Azov, it adds up to hundreds of thousands of people.

In this world, who can withstand the anger of hundreds of thousands of people?

Wen Xianming suddenly felt a little distressed. He had to control everything so as not to cause too much trouble.

Many people want to give him the title of cult leader, but they can't do as they wish.

……

……

Port city.

Li Jiankun has not returned from the office yet. He has not been to Hong Kong for a long time. There are some tasks that Ran Zi, Ai Fei and others cannot do for him, so he has to deal with them.

Li Jiankun put the white microphone back on the office desk piled with documents.

"The old charlatan is quite cocky."

He suddenly burst into laughter.

"Okay, let him show off for a few more days."

There is no way that Li Jiankun could have remembered wrongly what happened in the Sea of ​​Azov on September 20th.

In his previous life, he still remembered the contents of the book of secret stories and strange tales clearly because they were so horrifying.

The book states:

On September 20, 1988, when dramatic changes occurred in the Sea of ​​Azov, the Soviet government sent a special team to investigate.

Subsequently, fifteen members of this team died one after another within two years.

The cause of death was consistent: stroke.

I can’t really remember the name Li Jiankun, so I’ll use a number instead.
