Semiconductors—chips—are the core components of integrated circuits and have a wide range of applications.
It covers multiple fields including computers, communications, consumer electronics, medical devices, the Internet of Things, industrial control, automobiles, new energy, sensors, wearable devices, artificial intelligence, and weaponry.
Almost everything related to electronics is related to semiconductors!
In the coming decades, whoever masters wafer technology will control the future.
Although that's decades from now, what she needs to do now is enter the electronics manufacturing industry and wait.
Waiting—for the technology and talent to mature!
“Whatever is popular right now, I’ll do OEM manufacturing for that electronics, and I can still make money.” Ning Yuan walked to the window and looked out at Mong Kok.
OEM manufacturing is an industry that is looked down upon, but it is also the industry where technology can be accumulated the fastest and where you are most likely to acquire technology and talent.
Decades from now, there will be a top-tier contract manufacturer spanning the entire world. It is very low-profile, and no one knows that 60% or even 70% of the world's electronic products come from its production lines.
Later, they even began manufacturing satellites, smart cars, chips, and AI servers...
Who says OEM manufacturing doesn't involve core technologies?
Countless brands have fallen by the tides of time over the decades, but that world-class OEM group, while many were pessimistic, has remained hidden behind countless brands, with its market value growing ever larger and consistently ranking among the world's top 50 companies.
How did Ning Yuan know?
Because her daughter worked there in her previous life, and some strange things had happened to the employees of that group, she was worried about her daughter, so she specifically looked into that group.
Ning Yuan gently touched her belly.
Although she didn't know if her daughter would ever be in her womb again, she believed that her daughter would eventually return to her side.
Ning Yuan said softly, "My ambitions may be greater if I become a contract manufacturer, but with semiconductor technology, making money will be a piece of cake."
Developing semiconductor technology covertly by acting as a foundry is the least likely way to avoid being targeted.
At this time, the more the outside world looks down on the "cheap" and "low-end" nature of contract manufacturing, the more opportunities it has to acquire the most advanced technologies.
The island nation's semiconductor industry was destroyed by the United States in the 1990s by various means because it was too high-profile; otherwise, it could have easily competed with the other side.
Chu Hongyu seemed to understand but not quite, but she did understand that Ning Yuan believed this project would make a lot of money in the future!
Looking at Ning Yuan's cold and stubborn slender back, she felt both admiration and worry: "As long as Xiao Ning has thought it through, I support your decision, but..."
She didn't know much about this industry, but she knew exactly what eight million Hong Kong dollars could buy!
Eight million! That's an astronomical figure, enough to support the workers of several large factories in Shanghai. It's no joke.
After selling the antiques and paying taxes, Xiao Ning only had a little over ten million yuan left.
Chu Hongyu paused, then tentatively asked, "But you're throwing so much money at once, enough to build several electronics factories. Is it really necessary to do it all at once?"
For some reason, she always felt that Xiao Ning was building an electronics factory, doing contract manufacturing, and... well, in the semiconductor industry, there was a strange kind of stubbornness, too radical.
It seems that it's not just about making money.
Ning Yuan turned her head and smiled at Chu Hongyu with her eyes crinkling: "Sister Hongyu, don't worry, Rongguang Factory does more than just OEM manufacturing. Some of its production lines are still producing Rongguang electronic products and selling them to our inland areas."
Those products may not have the same technological advantages as those from abroad, but for the current mainland market—
Affordability is more important than good technology or high quality.
“We can make a lot of money just like that,” Ning Yuan said calmly.
She needed to persuade Sister Hongyu to become her future partner. The mainland market was a growth market, big enough that even a pig could fly if it was in the right place at the right time.
Ning Yuan paused for a moment: "Moreover... the more than ten million I earned from selling antiques was obtained through the Ning family and the socialite club. To make it completely my own business, I have to spend it."
She not only wants to spend the money, but also wants to spend it on what she considers the most worthwhile things!
Chu Hongyu understood, but was still a little worried: "But, aren't you afraid..."
"What's there to be afraid of? Afraid of losing money? If it's gone, it's gone. What investment doesn't involve losing money?" Ning Yuan looked out the window calmly.
In fact, she could see through the probing in Hongyu's words.
Yes, she wasn't telling the truth. Entering the electronics industry and doing OEM manufacturing was a risky move for her.
She wasn't just after money, or a lot of money.
And also for a secret—a futile attempt to shake a tree.
From the moment she was forced to give up searching for Anan, from the moment she walked out of that room.
She thought to herself that she had two goals in this life—to make money and to take revenge!
She lost him, and now she has no power to avenge him...
They have aircraft carriers, destroyers, and all sorts of advanced aircraft. What does she have?
She was just an ordinary person, fragile and insignificant.
But every time I see the sea, I see that Rong Zhaonan, whose remains may be buried there...
Her heart felt like it was being gripped tightly by an invisible hand, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.
By what right? By what right... do those people dare to attack them, who are protecting their homeland, with impunity in their territorial waters?
Because the enemy has weapons that they don't.
Truth exists only within the range of missiles.
She was just an ordinary person; she didn't understand technology or weapons, but she did understand that the most advanced weapons of the future all relied on crystals!
She understood that if an electronics manufacturing company became large and professional enough, it would have the opportunity to access the most advanced semiconductor technologies.
Moreover, in the short term, the identity of a Hong Kong government official is a useful shield, avoiding the technological blockade imposed by foreign enemies!
To scheme against someone who is not—
She might have a chance to use the money she earned from the enemy and the technology she stole from them to create crystals and equip them on weapons that could avenge him!
Dismember those jackals, wolves, tigers, and leopards that run rampant in our doorstep!
yes!
This sounds like the absurdity of Don Quixote fighting windmills, or the nonsense of an ant trying to shake a tree. How easy is it to do?
But so what?
She waited, patiently waited! If ten years didn't work, if twenty years didn't work, then thirty years, forty years...
Even with the most absurd ideas, she was willing to try them and take a gamble!
Ning Yuan's eyes, reflected in the window, flickered with a chilling flame—
"It's not easy to live a good life once in a lifetime. I didn't have the right to be arrogant before. When I was poor, I could only do my own good. Now that I have the ability, what's wrong with being arrogant for once?"
In any case, she's already altered the course of history. Even if she's extremely cautious, fate won't let her off the hook.
She died once, so this life is a stolen one, what is there to be afraid of!
I aspire to reach for the sun and moon in the heavens, to be a delusional ant trying to shake a tree, or a mantis trying to stop a chariot!
Ning Yuan turned to look at her and chuckled softly, "Sister Hongyu, you'll support me, right?"
Chu Hongyu was intimidated by her imposing aura. Yes, when had Ning Yuan ever been afraid?
From an orphan rejected by her adoptive parents, to going to university, doing business, getting married, reuniting with family, and even losing her lover...
Every step she took was fraught with peril. It's as if she lived each day as if it were her last!
"Yes, we will. Big Monkey and I will support you." Chu Hongyu couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat.
Looking at Ning Yuan's thin and stubborn back, she couldn't help but get up, and with mixed feelings, she took a coat and draped it over Ning Yuan's shoulders: "Let's go back and have dinner, don't let the baby in your belly go hungry."
She was good at reading people and could tell at a glance that something was wrong with Ning Yuan.
Since Rong Zhaonan's sacrifice, Ning Yuan has appeared stronger on the surface and her business tactics have become more ruthless, but she always felt sorry for Ning Yuan.
