Technological Empire Starts From Shanzhai System

  Chapter 268 Entering the field of material research and development

   After all, Lin Xuan has already mentioned his dream before, and also said that the next goal of Hantang Technology is to develop a general-purpose processor.

  So the academicians at this time also closed their mouths helplessly, and could only shake their heads helplessly.

  At this time, Dean Li of the Xia Ke Academy also slowly came to Lin Xuan with some majestic old people.

   In this regard, Lin Xuan knew that those were big bosses, so he smiled and shook hands with them one by one.

  Many bigwigs also appeared at the celebration this time.

  For example, when the 45nm manufacturing process was developed before, the old man who solved the problem of how to manufacture high-tech equipment for Lin Xuan also appeared on the stage.

  At this time, Lin Xuan was shaking hands with the old man very excitedly, and his words were naturally infinitely grateful.

  Of course, while grateful, Lin Xuan also asked insincerely whether he could continue to borrow those state-owned or digital factories.

  The strength of those level 8 or 9 workers continued to manufacture high-tech equipment for him.

  The reason for such an insinuating inquiry is because Hantang Technology has developed many equipments for the 45nm manufacturing process.

  Hantang Technology has no reason to ask those digital factories or state-owned factories to continue to manufacture high-precision equipment for Hantang Technology.

   Secretary He also returned to the old man after completing the 45nm manufacturing process and continued to be the old man's secretary.

  So to a certain extent, Hantang Technology has lost the ability to manufacture high-precision equipment such as lithography machines after conquering the 45-nanometer manufacturing process.

   That is to say, even if Lin Xuan develops a new type of lithography machine, it is only a castle in the air because of lack of manufacturing capabilities.

  So Lin Xuan needs to ask the old man on the sidelines if he can continue to borrow the 8th-level and 9th-level workers from the state-owned or digital factories to manufacture equipment for him.

  But the final result is naturally very disappointing, because the development of 45nm manufacturing process is the primary problem that Daxia urgently needs to solve.

  So the higher authorities can openly request digital factories or state-owned factories to manufacture ultra-precision parts for Lin Xuan.

  But since the 45nm process technology has been completed at this time, there is no justifiable reason for the higher authorities to require digital factories or state-owned factories to process ultra-precision parts for Lin Xuan.

  If this is really done, the following digital factories or state-owned factories may ask questions, wondering why they should do this?

  They put aside a bunch of tasks in their dignified digital factories or state-owned factories, and give priority to manufacturing for a private company. They are a bit dissatisfied when they say it.

  But despite the disappointing results, the old man still gave the words.

  If the things designed by Lin Xuan pass the review, it is determined to make up for Daxia's vacancy in this field.

  The old man can break the rules and speak for him, asking those state-owned factories or digital factories to manufacture ultra-precision parts for him, and then assemble them into machines for him.

  Getting this result, Lin Xuan can be regarded as mixed.

   Even though he didn't get what he wanted, he managed to get some good news amidst all the disappointments.

   But at the same time, Lin Xuan also discovered that Hantang Technology has a major flaw, which is the problem of low manufacturing capacity of high-precision equipment.

  However, although a difficult problem has been found, it is not as easy as imagined to solve it.

   High-precision equipment is not designed by you, you can complete the most advanced equipment design.

   In terms of design, Daxia is actually not weak. What Daxia lacks most is the ability to turn the designed things into entities.

   But to solve how to turn the designed thing into a physical thing, there is one thing that must never be opened, and this thing is the material!

  Material sounds like an ordinary term, and it looks inconspicuous.

  But who knows that just a material is actually the fundamental basis for determining whether a country is strong or not.

  Big Xia is good at ordinary products and equipment. Ordinary products are nothing more than various cylinders or special plastics.

  But when designing high-tech equipment, the importance of materials will be highlighted, and eventually the research and development of many advanced products will be blocked.

   The most obvious comparison is the turbofan engine or turbojet engine of the aircraft.

  Big Xia has already had the blueprint of the turbofan engine, and also has its own small improved design.

  However, limited by material issues, turbofan and turbojet engines have been unable to reach the international advanced level and have been unable to land.

  Manufacturing can definitely be forcibly manufactured. Daxia has a large number of eighth-level and ninth-level workers, and it can completely build an engine like a lithography machine!

  But if the material is not good enough, it is really fatal.

  Because the material is not good, after the successful manufacture, it can only run for tens to hundreds of hours, and then it needs to be replaced with a new engine. Who can bear this?

  It’s not like this is how to burn a lot of money. What can you do if you can only run for dozens of hours or even hundreds of hours at most? !

  Let’s not talk about the waste of financial resources and the waste of manpower of high-tech workers.

  There will definitely be great hidden dangers in the act of forcibly using it on the plane because of insufficient materials!

  A plane at an altitude of thousands of meters or even tens of thousands of meters may collapse at any time because the material cannot support it, and then there will be a crash that shocked the world!

  So because of the problem of poor materials, it deeply troubled Daxia's aero-engine development.

   This situation was not until ten years later, when Daxia had money to increase research in the field of basic materials due to economic development.

   With good materials and CNC machine tools, it has also achieved rapid development.

  Finally solved the problem of aero-engine, so that Daxia's fifth-generation fighter jets have come to the forefront of the world!

  So at this time, Lin Xuan discovered that although Hantang Technology has created a series of miracles, Hantang Technology is actually still a weak enterprise.

  An enterprise that cannot even manufacture high-end equipment!

  So at this time, Lin Xuan thought about whether he could first seek some 8th-level workers to come and serve him, and then solve the problem of high-precision CNC machine tools.

   But it’s not easy to do this. Level 8 workers are strategic workers.

  Whether it is a state-owned factory or a digital factory, they will not release their treasures.

   Even if Lin Xuan can get it, it is estimated that he will have to pay a lot of money to get some 8th-level workers, and this matter must be approved by Daxia.

  In addition, in addition to the vacancy in manufacturing, Lin Xuan also discovered another deficiency in Hantang Technology through this incident.

  Hantang Science and Technology’s achievements in the field of basic materials can be said to be zero, no achievements!

   Without materials, many things cannot be manufactured, and many black technologies are castles in the air, even if they are designed, they cannot be manufactured!

  So Lin Xuan is ready to enter the field of basic materials, specializing in the research and development of various high-performance metal materials or ceramic materials for special purposes.

  Thinking carefully, Lin Xuan found that there are so many material research projects to invest in!

  But these materials are materials that Lin Xuan can't avoid, and Lin Xuan can't do without research and development.

  After all, according to the original history, if Lin Xuan wants to use such materials, it will take more than 2010 for Daxia to increase investment in the field of basic materials before gradually ushering in the era of fruitful results.

   But there is still a long time before 2010. During this period of time, Lin Xuan can't do nothing, just wait for others to develop suitable materials.

  So if Hantang Technology wants to use various advanced materials, it can only be developed by Hantang Technology itself, and we can't wait for the sky to drop the fruit...

  …

  When the celebration party was held on the Xia Ke Academy side, it was 8:00 am on the side of the Meidi Country.

  At 8:00 am, it was time for the workers in Medigo to go to work.

  At this time in the world-renowned Silicon Valley, Intel's president, Paul Odess, came to the company before the prescribed working hours as usual.

  But today was a little different from usual, when he just walked into the company gate, he heard some strange discussions.

   "Have you heard? The youngest academician in Daxia was born?"

   "What is an academician? Is there a doctor with a high status?"

  The reason why some people in Intel say this is because it is in the eyes of foreign people.

  In fact, the status of a doctor is actually higher than that of an academician, which is almost completely different from the situation in China.

  Of course, there is actually the title of academician abroad, which is also a symbol of the highest scientific research honor status.

  But it may be too difficult to obtain a doctorate title abroad, and the doctoral level is not as full of water as Daxia.

  So if the people of Daxia read the comics or movies of Meidiguo.

  Then they will find that the villain who can destroy the world is often a doctor, not an academician.

  Because in people's impression, a doctor is the title of the strongest scientific research force!

   "Has Lin Xuan become an academician? Hmph!"

  Hearing the news, Intel's president Paul Odes snorted disdainfully.

  Ghost knows if Lin Xuan used the power of money to make him an academician, but judging from the fact that Lin Xuan became an academician and let Intel employees talk about him, Xuan should have paid this time.

   After all, he didn’t pay to become an academician, and let the media report it loudly, so how could the Intel employees know about Lin Xuan?

  So Lin Xuan must have paid for it, and for the sake of his face, he spent a lot of money to buy up the newspaper, making his becoming an academician known to the whole world, thus making his ancestors famous all over the world.

   I have to say that he is worthy of being a competitor. No matter what achievements Lin Xuan has made, Intel CEO Paul Olds always speculates on Lin Xuan with the greatest malice.

   With a disdainful smile on the corner of his mouth, Paul Odes walked slowly to his president's office amidst the greetings from the employees.

   After receiving the hot coffee handed over by the female secretary, Paul Olds looked down at the newspaper on the table.

  As the head of Intel, mastering the latest information in the industry is one of his job contents.

  So the first thing he did when he came to the company was to find out what key news appeared yesterday.

   Soon, Paul Olds saw the news that Lin Xuan, the head of Hantang Technology, claimed to enter the field of computer chips.

   "Ridiculous, extremely ridiculous!"

  Seeing that Lin Xuan claimed to enter the field of general-purpose processors, and also to end Intel's hegemony.

  Paul Olds couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth in a mocking arc.

   "Is this guy Lin Xuan brain-dead? Doesn't he know that Intel has almost withdrawn the authorization of X86, and will never authorize the X86 instruction set?"

   Speaking of this, Paul Olds had a smug smile in his eyes.

   Benefited from Intel's strategy of recycling the X86 instruction set authorization.

  Currently, there are only a few large international companies in the world that still have the authorization of the X86 instruction set.
