If you cheat, money will follow

After listening to Xu Mingzhi's introduction and analysis, Chang Le and Zeng Xi left the R&D center with confidence.

On the way back to the company, Zeng Xi smiled and said:

"Boss, I still underestimated this material. Now after listening to Xu Mingzhi's introduction, I understand that this material is crucial to Leda Automobile. It can almost instantly close the gap between Leda Automobile and major foreign manufacturers. "

Chang Le nodded: "It's an unexpected surprise! I believe the superiors will consider everything and won't ignore it. I'll make a call later."

As soon as Chang Le finished speaking, a call came from Yu Chengdong.

After answering the phone.

"Boss, I'm Yu Chengdong. I just heard from Xu Mingzhi that you and Mr. Zeng arrived at the R&D center and said that the research institute had produced a very awesome material?"

"Yes, the performance parameters are very impressive. It is only the first generation product and there is still a lot of room for upgrades."

"Great, can you do some research and development first? I'm not satisfied with the progress of the research and development center. It needs to be accelerated."

"It's not possible yet. I have already reported it and the superiors will study it. This material may not only be used in car engines, but also play a more important role in some aspects. We have to wait patiently for a while."

"I understand, but boss, our company has spent a lot of money to develop this thing. The superiors must consider this aspect. Please fight for our rights to commercialize it."

"Don't worry, I value it more than you do, and I will actively strive for it, and I won't let you be happy in vain."

"Okay, then I'll wait for your good news. It must be good news."

"Ha ha……"

After Chang Le ended the call, he smiled and said to Zeng Xi, "Look, Lao Yu is more active than me."

"Yes, boss. You read that right. Although he crosses industries, he got into the role in a very short time. When he reported to me some time ago, his development ideas were very clear, and he has obviously already started."

"He originally studied engineering, so his ideas are generally the same. By the way, how is the situation with Zhao Zhiwei?"

"He just reported to me yesterday that more than half of the companies on the list are very cooperative. It is estimated that the task will be completed in a few months."

"That's good. Next, you need to worry more about arranging the management."

"Boss, this is what I should do. But..."

"But what?"

"Is it really possible? Although I am an outsider, I also know that this kind of high-end and sophisticated industry cannot be created with just money. It requires too many other conditions."

"That's why we have laid out the entire industrial chain. Although it may not be possible to solve the problem with money, it certainly cannot be solved without spending money..." Chang Le said firmly:

"I believe that as long as we continue to invest intensively, we will be able to produce something. Even if the output is different from what we expected, it is still a gain. If there is a gain, the effort is not in vain. You see, Liu Chaoyang is a living example."

"That's right. Liu Chaoyang's project simply cannot be measured in terms of money." Zeng Xi nodded.

"Yes, we cannot currently estimate the subsequent tangible and intangible impacts, but they will definitely be beneficial to us." Chang Le affirmed.

Magic City.

After taking over Mowei shares from a series of companies such as Technology Venture Capital and Guangweiqing Investment, Zhao Zhiwei shook hands with representatives of Modu Electric Corporation on behalf of Leda Investment.

Modu Electric Corporation is the largest shareholder of Mowei, holding 32% of the shares.

This handshake represents that Mowei will no longer be a state-owned enterprise, but a purely private enterprise.

The reason why the progress is so fast is mainly due to the coordination and promotion by superiors, aiming to complete the early layout as soon as possible.

Therefore, Leda Investment only spent 10 billion yuan to acquire Mowei, together with the land where the company is located.

Another company might be able to figure this out and make a lot of money.

…………

After the signing ceremony, Zhao Zhiwei called He Rongming, the current chairman of Mowei, and walked around the industrial park.

He Rongming was originally the executive vice president of Modu Electric Corporation.

Due to the national strategic plan, Mowei was established in 02, and He Rongming was transferred to Mowei as the company's chairman.

In the seven years he has been in charge of Mowei, to say that He Rongming has not made any achievements would be to ignore the facts.

In the past 7 years, Momicro has started from scratch and completed the domestic independent research and development of the second-generation lithography machine-i-line365NM light source lithography machine. It officially went on the production line in 05, which can be regarded as officially touching the end of the era.

In 07, media reported that Momicro completed the research and development of the third-generation lithography machine - Krf248NM light source lithography machine.

But it is inconsistent with the facts.

In fact, Mowei only assembles the ASML prototype using imported parts. It has neither independence nor commercial capabilities.

At present, Momicro is still lingering outside the door of the third-generation lithography machine, lacking a decisive step.

During the same period, the Dutch company ASML has been working hard on the development of fifth-generation EUV light source lithography machines and achieved major breakthroughs.

The gap between the two sides is a generational gap, which lasts at least 30 years.

But we cannot blame them too harshly. There are many objective reasons why the development situations of the two sides are so different that they cannot be compared.

To put it simply, Mowei is just a problem maker in a small town, and ASML is the second generation of super rich people.

If you can spend decades struggling, it is rare to be able to sit down and have a cup of coffee together.

ASML is the group to tackle, and behind it stands the EUVLLC alliance.

Alliance members include North American National Laboratories, Motorola, AMD, Micron, Infineon, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory, Sandia National Laboratories, and more.

These members provide funds, technology and participate in joint research and development around ASML, which is a group operation with money, people and technology.

But the devil is standing alone, alone.

Apart from policy documents, we are in a situation where we have no money, no technology, and no one.

The "Vanason Agreement" directly blocks external technology sources, and the annual R&D funding of 6000 million yuan is a drop in the bucket for lithography machines.

The R&D team of several hundred people also stopped and went in and out due to financial reasons, making it unstable for a long time.

He Rongming was very ambitious when he first arrived in Mowei. Now his hair is gray, his hands are in his pockets, he is looking forward, calm and relieved.

He said to Zhao Zhiwei: "Now that you are here, it's time for me to leave. Ask me what I think... Haha."

"To be honest, I really don't have any feelings. Seven years is neither long nor short. In addition to business trips, I go to work at 7 o'clock every day and go home at 7 o'clock. I guarantee no rest on Saturdays and no guarantees of rest on Sundays. Day after day, Year after year, that’s the whole story for seven years.”

Zhao Zhiwei said: "There must be something to comfort yourself."
