Rebirth in 1989: Building a Chinese Technological Empire

"Young man, where did you get the blueprint for this lithography machine?"

After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Hanwen looked up at Xu Huasheng, his eyes full of excitement.

In China, when it comes to understanding lithography machines, Jiang Hanwen is second, and no one dares to claim first place.

And now the design of this blueprint he saw is really too exquisite, it is simply a perfect blueprint, just looking at this blueprint, Jiang Hanwen has been inspired a lot.

Comparing this design with the lithography machine he designed, Jiang Hanwen was full of disgust.

"Director Jiang, if I say this is my design, do you believe it?"

Xu Huasheng's words made Jiang Hanwen and Song Zhipei's eyes widen. How is it possible? This lithography machine was designed by Xu Huasheng? Can this thing be designed by one person?

For the original lithography machine, Jiang Hanwen spent a long time to discuss the plan of the whole team.

Jiang Hanwen stared at Xu Huasheng, and then looked at the blueprint again.

"What is this?"

Jiang Hanwen asked directly.

"Reflector..."

"Where is this?"

"This is the automatic alignment system I designed..."

"How to achieve automatic alignment?"

"Director Jiang, it's like this..."

In the room, an old man and a young man asked and answered.

At first, Jiang Hanwen asked questions and Xu Huasheng answered. But soon it became Xu Huasheng explaining and Jiang Hanwen listening. Jiang Hanwen, like a student, kept asking Xu Huasheng questions.

The atmosphere in the room became a little different. Song Zhipei looked at Xu Huasheng and his heart was already full of huge waves.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed it was true. He couldn't believe that Jiang Hanwen actually listened to Xu Huasheng's explanation like a primary school student. What kind of monster is this student of his?

At the beginning, Xu Huasheng's design of the decoding chip was already very amazing in Song Zhipei's eyes. And today Song Zhipei realized that he still underestimated his proud disciple.

In front of the lithography machine, a small decoding chip is just a stone at the foot of Mount Tai, which is not of the same order of magnitude. However, Xu Huasheng was able to design an industrial crown lithography machine. Judging from Jiang Hanwen's attitude, it is still a very advanced lithography machine. This is awesome.

After a discussion and inquiry, Jiang Hanwen looked at Xu Huasheng again, and was more shocked than Song Zhipei.

At this moment, he was sure that this lithography machine was designed by Xu Huasheng. Otherwise, Xu Huasheng would never know so much. These drawings are not complete, but just a rough design drawing.

When Jiang Hanwen asked questions, Xu Huasheng even took out a pen and paper to directly draw the structural details of a certain system to explain. This ability made Jiang Hanwen astonished.

"Young man, you came to me just to show me this drawing?"

Jiang Hanwen took a deep breath and looked at Xu Huasheng with curiosity on his face.

"No, Director Jiang, I want to make this lithography machine."

Xu Huasheng said directly, which made Jiang Hanwen look serious.

After taking another look at the drawings, Jiang Hanwen finally sighed.

"It's difficult..."

Jiang Hanwen's face was full of helplessness. He knew the difficulty of making a photolithography machine best. Although there is now a design drawing of the photolithography machine, and the design is very perfect. But this thing cannot be made with a design drawing.

A photolithography machine involves too much, precision processing, optical components, light source division, etc. With China's current foundation, it is basically impossible. This is a system engineering, a combination of many top technologies, and China has a big gap in this regard.

Jiang Hanwen felt very uncomfortable. This photolithography machine was designed too well. It was really uncomfortable to leave it here without making it. But Jiang Hanwen knew China's foundation too well.

It's like a child who has just learned to walk holding the sharpest weapon. Although the weapon is good, the child can't fully exert his combat effectiveness.

"Director Jiang, I know it's difficult, but there are some things that we can't not do just because they're difficult. Isn't it difficult to make an atomic bomb? Isn't it difficult to make a satellite? Isn't it difficult to make a missile? Isn't it difficult to make a submarine? Don't we have them? There are so many smart people in our country, I don't believe we can't even make a photolithography machine, haven't you already made a photolithography machine?"

Xu Huasheng said directly.

"It's different..."

Jiang Hanwen sighed, it's different. Atomic bombs, satellites, missiles, submarines and other things are important tools for the survival of the country, and they are built with the whole country's strength. Countless people shed blood and sacrificed, countless people made selfless contributions, and finally we have a great weapon for a great country.

As for the photolithography machine, to put it bluntly, it's just a civilian product, and its nature is completely different.Same. There are talents in China, but where is the money?

"One hundred million US dollars..."

Xu Huasheng said directly, which made Jiang Hanwen stunned.

"What do you mean?"

Jiang Hanwen asked directly with his eyes wide open.

"Director Jiang, our company is willing to spend one hundred million US dollars to develop this lithography machine. If it is not enough, we will add more funds. I want to ask Director Jiang, if the money is enough, can this lithography machine be built."

Xu Huasheng asked directly.

"Why not? This thing is man-made, not made by God. If there is really one hundred million US dollars, give me three years, I will definitely build this thing..."

Jiang Hanwen said loudly and confidently. Hearing this, Xu Huasheng laughed.

Is there no talent in China in this era? No, China in this era is full of talents. They can develop so many things in the most difficult environment to help China rise, this is their strength.

They are hardworking, they are not afraid of tears and blood, they are a group of real warriors.

Unfortunately, China is too poor in this era. Many projects only need a little money to break through, but China can't even get this little money, so many projects have to be discontinued. These projects are the heart and soul of scientific researchers.

"Wait, young man, are you serious? Do you really have 100 million US dollars?"

Jiang Hanwen suddenly looked at Xu Huasheng's smile, but his eyes were full of expectation.

Money, lack of money. China is now short of money all over the country, even the Huake Institute is very short of money. Although he is the director of the Optoelectronics Institute of the Huake Institute, the research funds that the entire Optoelectronics Institute can apply for each year are also very limited, and a few million RMB a year is incredible.

And how much is 100 million US dollars? That's more than 400 million RMB. The most important thing is that this money is foreign exchange. With foreign exchange, you can buy some experimental equipment you want and do better research.

If there is really 100 million US dollars, many things in Jiang Hanwen's mind can be demonstrated, and many things may be made.

"Hahaha, Lao Jiang, my student is really good. Their company has developed a product called air fryer, and the United States has placed a large order. The net profit of the first order alone is 100 million US dollars..."

Song Zhipei laughed happily, his face full of pride, and even a little bit of bragging.

After hearing this, Jiang Hanwen became more curious. Xu Huasheng did not hide anything and directly talked about the current situation of his company, even VCD and why he wanted to develop a photolithography machine.

After listening, Jiang Hanwen became excited. Money, it turns out that there is really money.

"Xiao Xu, as long as the money is in place, I will contact people and make this photolithography machine. With this photolithography machine, my country's semiconductor industry can take a big step forward. But it's not enough to rely on our optoelectronics research institute alone. Some things are not what our optoelectronics institute is good at. Let me think about it..."

Jiang Hanwen walked around the room excitedly, and then took out a piece of paper and started writing a list.

There are many systems in the photolithography machine, and these systems require different technologies. Disassemble these systems and then find a corresponding powerful research institute to develop them. As long as there is money, the technology that troubles this lithography machine will definitely be overcome bit by bit. It is nothing more than a matter of time.

The three people stayed in the research institute for a long time. When Xu Huasheng and Song Zhipei left, Xu Huasheng's face was full of smiles.

Xu Huasheng left the drawings to Jiang Hanwen. He believed in Jiang Hanwen's character.

With this big man to help lead the team, the rest of the things will be much easier. When the air fryer makes money and the funds are in place, with the help of the country, Xu Huasheng believes that the entire semiconductor industry chain will slowly take shape.

Now, the most important thing for Huasheng Electronics is the production of air fryers. Only by producing and delivering the products as soon as possible can the original capital be accumulated quickly.

However, there is no need to worry about the overall production. Luo Xiangyu has already been busy with this matter.

Xu Huasheng has clearly written the data, size, process, etc. of all the parts of the air fryer. The factory that receives the order only needs to do it according to the requirements.

What Huasheng Electronics has to do is to test these parts and the final assembled products. As long as the test is qualified, they can pay directly, and pay in US dollars.

Now Xu Huasheng finally realized the feeling of being a boss. In the current China, whoever has foreign exchange is the boss.

Those factories and local governments really went all out to earn foreign exchange from Huasheng Electronics.

The local government contacted the factory first, and then contacted the bank. After the bank inspected the factory, it directly issued a loan to the factory according to the order contract.

And the local government directlyTake over the supervision of the use of funds to prevent these funds from being diverted to other uses.

Foreign exchange, earning foreign exchange is a political task, and there is no room for error.

Huasheng Electronics did not pay a single cent of deposit, and these factories were willing to help Huasheng Electronics produce products.

This is the era, Xu Huasheng felt both fortunate and a little sad. If there is any ability, which factory is willing to do this? In another thirty or forty years, your company will not pay the deposit when placing an order and let the company advance the money first. Do you try it?
