Rebirth: From catering group to world’s richest man

These days, companies from all over the world are still coming to Zulong Technology for inspection.

Basically, Ni Guanglan and Lin Bojian are both very busy.

But no matter how busy he was, if Lin Shen came to Zulong Technology to see them, they would still come to see Lin Shen.

Moreover, Lin Shen came here specifically to let the two of them come to see him.

In Ni Guanglan’s office, Lin Shen met Ni Guanglan and Lin Bojian.

After so many days of busy work, they were even more tired than usual from doing research. There was nothing they could do about it, mainly because they had to deal with so many people every day. It’s not like doing research, where you just put your head down and work hard every day.

However, although the two of them were tired, their expressions still revealed a faint excitement.

The excitement on their faces has lasted for a whole week

“Mr. Lin, our company is now prosperous! We are already the only king of high-end lithography machines in the world. Even major chip manufacturers like Intel and AMD must come to cooperate with us.”Ni Guanglan said.

This is an indescribable excitement, which means that if nothing unexpected happens, all high-process computer CPUs and graphics card GPUs in the world will be manufactured using Zulong Technology’s lithography machines.

In the future The mobile phone may need Zulong Technology’s immersion lithography machine.

Lin Bojian also seemed very happy to join Zulong Technology. Zulong Technology has now become the world’s number one lithography machine company, which is actually a good thing for him. kind of glory

“The government also gave us a lot of honors and benefits, both covertly and covertly.” Lin Bojian added

“Well, good job.” Lin Shen nodded. Now that Zulong Technology has such dazzling achievements, Lin Shen is of course very pleased.”But, do you know what I want to tell you when I call you here today?”

Ni Guanglan and Lin Bojian looked at each other, not really knowing Lin Shen’s purpose.

Their first reaction was that they had made some mistake.

“Don’t be so nervous. What I actually want to say is that although Zulong Technology has become the world’s number one photolithography machine manufacturer, it cannot be complacent because of this. Our leadership does not mean that we will always be ahead. If we stagnate, we will still be surpassed by other companies. Lin Shen said

“We understand this. After this busy period is over, we will definitely continue further research and development work. The 65nm process is by no means the limit.”Lin Bojian said

“Okay, I’m just here to hear what you think next. Lin Shen said,”Dr. Lin, what are your next plans?”

Lin Bojian thought for a while and said:”First of all, we use an immersion lithography machine.

Based on the progress and upgrade of other components, we speculate that the limit of the process will be 7nm.

” But what about after 7nm? Is there no room for improvement? of course not.

The light source we are currently using is an argon fluoride excimer laser, which is a deep ultraviolet laser, also known as duv.

However, we can also choose an extreme ultraviolet laser, also known as euv.

The extreme ultraviolet laser has a shorter wavelength.

In other words, combined with our The immersion lithography technology can completely break the 7nm limit.

Lin

Bojian was talking eloquently, obviously this was not the first time he had thought about this issue.

“oh? Your thoughts coincide with mine. Lin Shen smiled and said,”However, extreme ultraviolet laser is more unstable than deep ultraviolet laser. Even the air can absorb it. The concentration needs to be extremely high. This problem must be overcome, which is as big as a mountain.””

Hearing Lin Shen suddenly reveal the key to EUV technology, Lin Bojian also knew that Lin Shen is indeed a boss who knows everything. It is far more difficult to conquer EUV lithography technology than to make an immersion lithography machine. , of course, if it is developed, EUV lithography technology plus immersion lithography technology will be truly invincible.

“Mr. Lin, scientific research is always about climbing to the peaks, which requires hard work and hard work.”Lin Bojian is obviously full of confidence after the glory brought by this immersion lithography machine.

In the last life, ASML started to study the direction of EUV after conquering the immersion lithography machine without any competitors. , but I never expected that after ten years of research, the EUV lithography machine did not achieve mass production.

Later, it finally achieved mass production, and the process was improved to within 3nm. Therefore, Lin has reached its peak.

Shen also feels that there is a long way to go in this direction.

“Well, since Dr. Lin is so confident, I suggest that we research in this direction. Lin Shen said.

Lin Shen has nothing to worry about. With the immersion lithography machine, Zulong Technology can be the dominant player in the field of lithography machine for at least 20 years. While studying the further upgrade of the immersion lithography machine At the same time, it is entirely possible to study EUV lithography technology at the same time.

In fact, if Lin Bojian did not propose this direction himself, Lin Shen would propose it to him, because this is the next direction.

Ni Guanglan and Lin Bojian quickly nodded in agreement after receiving Lin Shen’s instructions.

“Okay, that’s settled then.” Lin Shen said,”Oh, by the way, when I’m done with this period of time, I will ask Mr. Duan to give a bonus to all employees who participated in the research and development of the immersion lithography machine to reward everyone’s hard work and dedication. Of course, Gong Ni and Dr. Lin will not miss your share. Start with one million for encouragement.”

When they heard about the bonus, Lin Bojian and Ni Guanglan also smiled. It’s not that they love money, but it is definitely quite exciting to be recognized and reported for their efforts.

“Mr. Lin, would you like to dine in the company’s restaurant this morning? Multinational companies have come to our company for inspections in the past two days. The food in the restaurant has been upgraded a lot and the food is very good. Ni Guanglan said

“No, I have something else to do in the afternoon. I have an appointment with Director Zhang of the Department of Science and Technology to discuss matters, so I won’t stay in the company.”Lin Shen stood up and said.

It has been agreed to meet with Director Zhang to discuss things. Lin Shen naturally cannot let Director Zhang do it.

Meeting with Director Zhang is of course a serious matter. Ni Guanglan and Lin Bojian will send Lin Shen out. After arriving at the R&D center, Lin Shen did not let the two of them send him off again, but left alone.

…………

In the afternoon, Lin Shen met Director Zhang at the time he had agreed with him.
