"Mr. Lin, aren't you kidding?" She Yimo's tone shivered violently: "Are you really willing to spend $1 billion to do this lithography machine project?"

"It's not just a lithography machine, I hope to create masks, photoresist, light source, lithography process flow and various equipment required in the semiconductor manufacturing process to form a complete set of process and technical systems... Director Li, you are the authority in this regard. Do you think 1 billion US dollars is enough?" The last sentence was said to Li Zijie, director of the Institute 45.

"I'm afraid... it's still a bit insufficient..." When he said the word "not enough", Li Zijie was ashamed to find a crack in the ground to drill in. The annual scientific research funding of 45 institutes was only more than 30 million yuan. He also ambitiously told the group company, "Give me 1 billion, I will definitely be able to produce our lithography machine!" But now Lin Zheng has taken out 1 billion with real swords and guns, and it's still US dollars, but he can't even say enough...

But the fact is that $1 billion is not a problem to develop a lithography machine, and it is not even used. However, if you want to develop a complete set of process flows and various equipment required for production, $1 billion is really not enough.

Wei Zhenhua suddenly became anxious: No matter whether it can be done or not, you agree first, 1 billion US dollars, how much can this be done? She Yimo even hurriedly said to Lin Zheng: "Mr. Lin, although 1 billion US dollars is not a lot, it is definitely a lot. If you compress other aspects, it will be almost the same..."

Lin Zheng interrupted She Yimo with a smile and said, "I think Director Li's words make sense."

"ah……"

What's going on?

She Yimo suddenly became a little stupid.

Nowadays, those who are engaged in research have tried their best to find ways to make money, and units that can provide funds have tried their best to reduce their expenses. After a report applying for 20 million scientific research funds is posted, it is a good idea to approve 15 million. Normally, it is good if you can approve 15 million. What is the situation now? Li Zijie said that 1 billion US dollars is not enough, so why is Lianchuang Technology willing to give more?

Although she knew that Lin Zheng could not be foolishly "if you want me, I'll give it to me", She Yimo couldn't help but feel excited: Speaking of which, the funds of the Electronic Technology Group are actually quite tight...

Lin Zheng said: "As far as I know, as&ml's annual funding for lithography machine technology research and development is more than US$1.5 billion. Nikon's annual funding is no less than US$1 billion. Of course, we cannot compare with them, but after such a complete set of processes and technologies, it is absolutely impossible to handle them without seven or eight years. 1 billion US dollars sounds a lot, but the average annual average is only about US$150 million. This money really cannot be considered too much."

This is the truth. Others need to spend more than ten or twenty dollars a year to do scientific research. Even if we are researching what others have already figured it out, since the other party refuses to transfer the technology to you, you have to start from scratch. We spend more than one billion dollars a year to do something that others can do more than one billion dollars a year. In Lin Zheng's opinion, he has made a lot of money.

Li Zijie's eyes suddenly turned red.

There is a habit in China that is called spending small money to do big things. This sentence is applicable in some fields and places. Even in the field of scientific research, with the outstanding minds and wild thinking of our scientific researchers, we can find ways to achieve the goal at the lowest cost. However, this kind of "spend small money to do big things" is not without limits. Research abroad requires 1 million US dollars to be developed. We may be able to do it with 200,000 US dollars or 300,000 US dollars, but if you ask our scientific researchers to do it with 100,000 rmb, it would be too much, and it would not respect the objective laws of the development of things.

But in fact, it is something that can be made from foreign countries with 1 million US dollars. Some leaders ask you to make it with 100,000 or even tens of thousands of rmbs, and they also call it "spend less money and do more things". However, they don't know that this amount of money is not enough to buy materials, and there are executive orders from leaders on it, so you can't blame some scientific research institutions and institutes for fraud... If you don't commit fraud, you can't complete the task.

He never thought that Lin Zheng would be so generous. The money escaped from his pocket.

She Yimo's face was also red, but unlike Li Zijie's past feelings. He was embarrassed, although no one said that. However, the Electronic Technology Group has done a lot of such things in the past. What's even more outrageous is that the country has put a hat on the 45 institutes and the Electronic Technology Group will inevitably make a move through it, so that the scientific research fund that is far from sufficient, and then the skin is shaved...

The atmosphere at the scene was a bit strange. Lin Zheng coughed and asked Li Zijie: "Director Li, if the factors of price inflation are not considered, how long do you think it will take and how much money can achieve the goal I want to achieve?"

Li Zijie hesitated for a moment and chose to tell the truth: "Don't even think about it without more than 8 years. If you encounter some difficulties in the middle... this is simply a certain amount... Time has to go for more than 10 years. As for the funding, I think it should be between 1.5 and 2 billion US dollars..."

It took 8 to 10 years, with US$1.5 to 2 billion in funding. During this period, there was not much pure investment. Li Zijie himself was a little embarrassed and said embarrassedly: "Of course, although there were pure investments during this period, there were still some outputs..."

"In the 8th to 10th, $1.5 to $2 billion, right?" Lin Zheng interrupted Li Zijie: "Including the factors of price inflation, it will not exceed $2.5 billion, is that true?"

Lin Zheng's words scared Li Zijie silly. Could it be that Lin Zheng really planned to pay the money himself? He spitted hard and said with difficulty: "No...yes..."

"Okay, we, Lianchuang Technology, have all the gaps outside of national funding. The conditions are still the conditions just now. Technology and patents belong to us. Well, each technology and patent will have 50% ownership. In the future, the production and market development of these equipment will be responsible for Lianchuang Technology. The profit will be 460 cents, Lianchuang Technology 6 and Guifang 4. Is there any problem?" Lin Zheng said boldly and heroically.

"I...I..." How dare Li Zijie agree to such a big thing? This was seriously beyond his authority. He subconsciously turned his head to look at She Yimo.

She Yimo smiled bitterly.

Not only does he smile bitterly, but his mouth is even more bitter: Lianchuang Technology said that they have taken full responsibility for the R&D funding gap in addition to the state's allocation. He knew very well that this means that Lianchuang Technology must bear at least 80% of the R&D funds and 80% of the R&D funds, but only 50% of the ownership of the patent and technology and 60% of the sales profit. Lianchuang Technology's plan is from any perspective, the Electronic Technology Group and 45 have made a big profit, but he really can't give Lin Zheng a positive answer right now, which is beyond his authority.

"I have no doubt about your sincerity. I personally have no problem with the cooperation framework proposed by President Lin, but the specific situation depends on the meaning of the head office." Helplessly, She Yimo could only say so.

"I can understand." Lin Zheng nodded with a smile.

As for whether She Yimo's answer had other ideas, she had to put a question mark in her mind for the time being.

"Mr. She, you still have to trouble you quickly," Wu Yuying, who had not spoken much, suddenly interrupted: "Before we came, I heard that Lianchuang Technology was interested in investing huge amounts of money in the development of lithography machines, Northern Microelectronics Equipment and Magic City Microelectronics Equipment, Fengtian Xinyuan, Tsinghua and Chengdu Optical Machinery Institute have all contacted us. It was Mr. Lin who insisted on cooperating with you."

She Yimo's face changed slightly, and the warning in Wu Yuying's words was too obvious: Don't think that our Lianchuang Technology must hang itself on the tree of your 45th Institute. You took this opportunity to kill the fat sheep and told you to extinguish this thought that you shouldn't have as soon as possible. In addition to your Electronic Technology Group, we have more partners to choose from, but it's not that you 45th Institute can't do it.

The smart man's words needless to say too straightforward. Wu Yuying's words have already hit She Yimo's face.

To be honest, She Yimo did have some idea of ​​waiting for a price before: Since you are willing to offer such generous conditions to cooperate with us, can you still get more benefits? No need to spend more, paying thousands of RMB in more than a year is not a big difficulty for you, but with this thousand million that is not planned, how many things can you do?

Wu Yuying's words woke She Yimo up like a slap in the face: It is true that the research level of 45 in the lithography machine is the best in China, but is the level of the other research institutes really much worse than that of 45? Not necessarily! If several other research institutes have received unlimited financial support from Lianchuang Technology, She Yimo is very sure that in more than one year, the research institute that has received support from Lianchuang Technology will inevitably become the strongest unit in the field of lithography machine in China.

If the leaders above learned that Lianchuang Technology was once infinitely close to the Electronic Technology Group, but in the end, because some people had too much appetite, Lianchuang Technology chose other partners, I am afraid that the furious senior group students would have their own thoughts.

You can't take this risk!

He nodded to Lin Zheng solemnly, She Yimo said: "Mr. Lin chose 45 institutions, which is an affirmation of 45 institutions and the Electronic Technology Group. After returning, I will do my best to promote this matter. Please rest assured by Mr. Lin."

"Please help me invite several bosses of your group. Everyone should sit together. I wonder if Fang is not convenient?"

Lin Zheng's words made She Yimo breathe a sigh of relief and said repeatedly: "No problem, no problem, I will contact the leaders of the group in the future!" (To be continued)
