“Some people might say, ‘Didn’t they tell you to move the headquarters there, let Wall Street capital take control, set up contract manufacturers in China, and learn slowly?’ But that’s a dead end. Let’s not even talk about whether they’ll let you do contract manufacturing. Even if they do, one word from them tomorrow and you’re finished.”
“We’re not saying we want to handle all the processes and products ourselves—we can’t do that—but we should have a skill to rely on. We’re not saying we’ll shut ourselves off and research on our own for the rest of our lives, but rather that when the time is right, whether we go to Silicon Valley or Japan, we’ll learn from others.”
"It's just that the timing isn't right. We need to be more patient. I believe that in a few years, we will increase our exchanges and learning in Silicon Valley, and we will also build good cooperative relationships with Japanese companies, such as Toshiba and Sony. We want to join this big family."
"As for everyone's income, don't worry. I want to reassure you all that I've already secured funding in Hong Kong. The new company will definitely bring a fresh start and will provide even greater support for R&D. Do you have any further questions or concerns?"
After Lu Feng finished speaking, he looked around at everyone, and everyone turned their attention to Dr. Chen.
“Mr. Lu, since you say you want to cooperate with these companies, why not now? Will things change in a few years? This isn’t just about work, it’s also about your future.” Dr. Chen looked at Lu Feng and asked, “I believe everyone can grow faster in the environment in the United States.”
“I know some people want to go abroad, which I understand, but the current situation is that we can’t get in at all. This is not something I can do on my own. They want ownership, they want to submit documents, and they even want to inspect projects. Let me put it this way, even if we go there, they will still investigate and dig out the evidence. They have a law called the crime of endangering U.S. security, which can be easily imposed on us.”
"At the same time, patent rights are also an issue. Going there might lead to endless lawsuits, I think..."
"Mr. Lu!" Dr. Chen interrupted Lu Feng's speech and said, "The United States is a country ruled by law. Your worries are completely unnecessary. Besides, if you really haven't done anything wrong, why would you be worried about being sued? They are reasonable people. I know them very well from my years in the United States!"
"What kind of talk is that? Who doesn't live in a country ruled by law? Who's unreasonable? Aren't there plenty of protracted and messy lawsuits over there?" Lu Feng frowned and stared at him, saying, "Dr. Chen, you need to be clear about your motives when you speak! You need to be clear about your own interests. Are you just saying that no matter what the company or industry is like, as long as you go there, you'll be victorious?"
"Then why don't you go? Have you ever seen anyone come back after going there? There are only those who don't want it, not those who cry and beg to come back. Whether it's civilization, science, culture, or technology, they are the center of the world!" Dr. Chen shouted at Lu Feng, "Have you ever seen a large company staying in the countryside? Staying in the countryside means they can only find a dropout working girl. They have men and women from all over the world there!"
Dr. Chen's words caused a stir in the room, and many people stared at him with unpleasant expressions. Although everyone yearned for it, his words made many people uncomfortable.
Lu Feng's face darkened completely, and he stared intently at Dr. Chen.
"What are you looking at me for? You're not convinced? Am I wrong? What level are they at, and what level are we at? You're always thinking about competing with them, but have they ever even given you a second glance? As for the current level of R&D companies, any small semiconductor company in Silicon Valley can catch up!" Dr. Chen mocked, "And you're always chasing after everything."
"Even if small Silicon Valley businesses can catch up, these are still our own! We can learn if we're not good enough, we can take it slow. Who the hell can become fat in one bite? I started this company not to become a superior person over there, I just want to help this giant stand up!"
"Don't fucking kneel down all the time!"
Lu Feng slammed his hand on the table and shouted, "Yearning for life over there is understandable, it's human nature. What nonsense about men and women over there? We raised you all these years and taught you so much, just so you could go over there and have some kind of incestuous relationship?"
"Let me tell you, this company isn't in it for the money, it's just to have some backbone. Going to the US is fine, but you can't go there on your knees. If your skills aren't up to par, I don't expect them to be begging you to come, but I can't accept going there on my knees. If anyone has that kind of thinking or is dissatisfied, they can resign!"
