Chapter 246 Immersion Lithography Machine
Wujiang Group was enjoying unparalleled success at this time, and its brand value skyrocketed.
The Pangu supercomputer, a product of the company, has gained global popularity. Many countries have consulted with Wujiang Group and purchased the Pangu series of supercomputers for purposes such as simulating nuclear tests, climate simulation and weather forecasting, earthquake simulation, oil exploration, and drug development.
Even the Hasee computer series was affected, with sales skyrocketing.
One month later.
"The order for the Pangu supercomputer has reached 25 units!"
"Shenzhou Computer's sales have exceeded 2 million units this month!"
"In addition, the performance of Wujiang Group's other products increased by at least 15%!"
Liu Yinyin walked into Zhao Ye's office with a document in her hand and introduced it.
"The Pangu supercomputer is equipped with our independently developed 'Kirin Pentium' CPU processor, using the 32-bit HarmonyOS instruction set. Its peak performance is 120 quadrillion operations per second, its sustained performance is 100 quadrillion operations per second, and its core operating frequency is 1.5 GHz. The cost of a single Pangu supercomputer alone is as high as $100 million."
"Currently, the publicly listed price of the Pangu supercomputer is $300 million, but demand still exceeds supply. We are temporarily restricting the Pangu supercomputer from entering the United States and will only sell it to companies outside the United States, unless the United States is willing to lift the restrictions and blockades on Wujiang Group."
From this day forward, you dare to say "yes" to the West; from this day forward, the Western world's semiconductor industry will lag behind China!
"Mr. Lin, did your secretary tell you that the development of immersion lithography machines has achieved a breakthrough?" Goldman Sachs inquired.
It's obvious that Canon or Nikon from Japan are significantly less powerful than Hayashi Kenshin, and the US definitely supports those two companies, making them more difficult to deal with.
"Chairman Zhao is stingy!"
That's not the worst option yet.
A quiet cheer erupted inside the laboratory.
The US technology sector has been severely impacted.
Xinjiang Microelectronics will maintain its leading technological position for a long time, and its global chip foundry business will far surpass TSMC and Intel...
Upon hearing Zhang Rujing's words, Goldman Sachs couldn't help but show a look of surprise and delight.
"The objective lens is one of the most expensive and simple components, encompassing the latest technologies in several disciplines such as optics, mechanics, computer science, and electronics. Its structural design is extremely simple, requiring control of the objective lens wavelet aberration and comprehensive control of the polarization aberration of the objective lens system."
"Oh no, Mr. Zhao, please come with me. Since the laboratory is a dust-proof laboratory, you will need to change your protective suit after leaving."
A week ago, as expected, Deutsche Bank and JPMorgan Chase agreed to serve as underwriters for Lin Benjian's company's IPO.
Upon hearing this, Cheng Jinglei, Ni Guangnan, Li Aojun, and others were overjoyed.
He was very satisfied with the company's recent performance. Wujiang Group's computer brand has gained recognition worldwide. As a result, the sales of computer brands such as IBM, Apple, and Dell have all declined.
The Philips representative and Lin Benjian's junior manager showed delight upon hearing those words.
“Come on, let me take you to the lab!” Goldman Sachs said curiously, wanting to see what the objective lens system looked like.
"Zeiss has been actively cooperating with you, and finally, through our combined efforts, we have successfully developed the objective lens system!!!"
Everyone applauded, feeling proud and honored.
A moment later, Cheng Jing sighed, "No wonder no one in later generations said that Gan Shi was simply standing behind an aircraft carrier that was slowly sailing and trying to stop it. That was absolutely wrong!"
Both Youjiang Group and Philips have refused, making Lin Benjian's delisting plan a done deal.
“Yes, Chairman Zhao!” Gan Shiguang nodded, his face beaming with the joy of success.
"The core components of a lithography machine include a light source system, an objective lens system, and a stage."
"Damn it, go down immediately and inform the executives at Philips and Lin Benjian's company to initiate the delisting plan!"
Goldman Sachs chuckled, "Let companies like Canon and Nikon continue doing futile research."
"Cheng Jinglei insisted on promoting immersion lithography machines. How could our investments in these companies researching Cheng Jinglei's lithography machines have gone down the drain? No wonder so few companies in later generations were willing to support me, and some even wanted to eliminate dry lithography." Goldman Sachs sighed. In that life, everyone rushed to research Liu Yinyin's lithography machine field, all of them getting stuck in dead ends. As a result, even after ten years, the chip manufacturing process has only seen minor changes.
The longer this goes on, the less advantageous it will be for Youjiang Group, allowing it to maintain a technological monopoly in the semiconductor chip field for an even longer period.
At this moment, Ni Guangnan, Li Aojun, Cheng Jinglei and others walked up behind Goldman Sachs, their faces beaming with smiles.
...
Zhao Ye nodded slightly with a smile.
After a while, Goldman Sachs finished reading the remaining documents, wrote some comments, and then picked up the materials that ASML had brought and began to read them.
Now, the clouds have finally parted and the moon is shining!
Even if our company wanted to develop an immersion lithography machine, we probably could only buy the lens and develop the immersion lithography machine. At most, it would be like that after 2000.
After Zhang Rujing finished speaking, no one objected.
...
“Yes, execute it immediately!!!” Goldman Sachs nodded.
Zhang Rujing said, "In order to help Lin Benjian's company successfully delist from NASDAQ in the United States, do you think we should invite S&P and JPMorgan Chase to serve as IPO underwriters to assist Cheng Jinglei's IPO?"
After saying that, he turned to Ni Guangnan, Li Aojun and others and said, "The same applies to Youjiang Microelectronics Company. A virtual equity incentive system will also be launched. The company is not just your company, but also a family company. You are very willing to share the benefits of the company's rapid development with all employees."
