My science and technology museum

"At present, we have solved the light source system and the control software is about to be written. The core components are still the objective lens composite material and photoresist."

"However, many of these things have entered the experimental stage, and I believe they will be tested and used soon."

"I am confident that the assembly of this top-level photolithography machine will be completed during the Spring Festival."

Xu Lei knew very well what Yang Senping was worried about. He was simply afraid that he would say too harshly at this time. If he failed to successfully complete the research and development of a top-level photolithography machine, it might cause greater heated discussion and affect his positive image.

However, after basically debugging the light source system, he began to prepare chemical-level photoresists. In addition, he also provided technical guidance to researchers responsible for other components, which made the research progress of various parts progress by leaps and bounds.

There are still nearly three months left before the Spring Festival. It should not be a problem to complete the assembly of the photolithography machine and produce the chips.

And when Yang Senping still hesitated, Hao Yaoping spoke again: "I am willing to believe in XCMG on this decision. He is a real genius."

If Hao Yaoping was interested in training Xu Lei at the beginning, then after the two of them had cordial and friendly discussions on lithography machine-related technologies, he was completely impressed by Xu Lei's vast and exquisite technical knowledge.

I just feel that all my years of research have been in vain.

Later on, I was willing to adopt the mentality of a student and went to Xu Lei for advice from time to time.

So with this relationship, he is naturally willing to believe Xu Lei. Although it may be difficult for the outside world to imagine, Xu Lei may really be able to complete it on time.

I have to say that Hao Yaoping's words are quite convincing. Yang Senping, who was still hesitant at first, immediately made a decision after hearing these words.

He made up his mind and preached decisively:

"Okay, I'll trust you two for once, but make sure you don't let me slip up at the critical moment."

"Don't worry, Dean Yang."

Seeing that the matter had been decided, Xu Lei immediately stood up and patted Yang Senping's shoulder familiarly and said with a smile: "I have to go back to the laboratory to continue configuring the appropriate photoresist, and I will leave all the specific implementation to you. ”

After saying that, he turned around and left.

"This kid." Looking at Xu Lei's back, Yang Senping whispered with a smile until he completely disappeared from the field of vision.

Immediately, Hao Yaoping also stood up from the sofa and praised with emotion: "It is a great blessing to have a genius like Xu Lei among the young generation who strongly supports the development of domestic technology. Dean Yang, you must be optimistic." .”

But I don't know what Hao Yaoping's words made Yang Senping think of. When he was the only one left in the office, he was still in a state of thinking.

…

Thursday, November 14th.

While many people on the Internet are still dissatisfied with the discontinuation of research and development of lithography machines, the Chinese Academy of Sciences officially issued an announcement through its official account.

It is clearly pointed out that the domestic lithography machine is still under research and development, and it is planned to complete the assembly of the first one around the Spring Festival and officially put it into use to produce high-end chips.

Since it's something that has been decided, it must be done very quickly.

Yang Senping issued this announcement almost on the same day and screened the original project R\u0026D team members.

It can be said that it is going on in a hurry.

As this announcement was forwarded by major mainstream media accounts, it quickly reached the top of the search list on major website platforms across the Internet, and immediately caused a sensation across the entire Internet.

Originally, everyone requested a statement just for peace of mind, but no one expected that there would be such explosive information in the announcement.

He obviously wanted to fish, but the crocodile took the bait.

However, because the announcement stated that domestic lithography machines will be assembled and produce chips before and after the Spring Festival, many people have questioned this, believing that the facts were deliberately exaggerated to deal with the online turmoil.

Eventually it turned into a new controversy.

"I'm not mistaken. The lithography machine developed around the Spring Festival must be something that has already lagged behind 28 nanometers."

“I always feel like I’ve exaggerated my bullshit this time, and I won’t be able to come back to it when the time comes.”

"It's absolutely impossible to develop a high-end photolithography machine during the Spring Festival. It's completely nonsense."

"I'm calling you guys, we still have a long way to go in the technology research and development of high-end lithography machines, but we have made rapid progress in just a few months."

“I feel like it’s better to stop the research on photolithography machines.”

"I'm more interested in this. I want to see what excuses I will use to deal with it during the Spring Festival."

"Similarly, wait for the Spring Festival."

"You are really not afraid of being slapped in the face. I think since you dare to say this, you must have the confidence and confidence."

However, at the same time as this announcement was issued, some video blogger accounts that had previously forwarded this false news and caused a negative impact were also dealt with, and punitive measures were taken to ban them from the entire network.

As a result, no industry insiders or well-known bloggers discussed the issue this time, and it did not cause too much trouble.

Anyway, by the Spring Festival, things will naturally come to a conclusion.

——

As for Brady.

As the specific executor of this matter, he naturally pays attention to the situation online.

After seeing the content of this announcement, I went to Mike's home overnight to report.

"Mr. Mike, the other party just made an announcement. They said that they are currently stepping up the development of high-end lithography machines, and they also promised to put them online and put into use in three months."

"Three months?"

"Brady, that's a good joke of yours."

In the manor living room, after listening to Brady's report, Mike couldn't suppress the smile in his heart and laughed out loud.

Obviously.

He simply did not believe this guarantee.

High-end lithography machines are very complex and precise equipment. Many companies cannot even solve one of the technologies, let alone manufacture a lithography machine that can be put into use.

What's more, the opponent's technology is already at a relatively backward level.

There is only one explanation.

This is intentionally false news to counteract previous negative influence online.

"I didn't expect that they would also learn to deceive themselves and others. Using this method to eliminate the influence is really a wrong move!"

"Mr. Mike, this is an opportunity for us."

Noticing that Mike was in a good mood, Brady immediately echoed from the side: "After three months, we only need to take the initiative to take this matter to the international level. Then no matter what excuses they use, we will be affected." A certain impact.”

"You're right."

"Then this matter will still be left to you."

Mike thought about Brady's proposal for a while and felt that it was a good operating method, which was equivalent to an enhanced version of the previous news spread.

Since he did a good job last time, he must still leave it to Brady to do it this time.

After making good plans, the two of them glanced at each other and smiled confidently, as if they had imagined a scenario in which their opponent would slap them in the face.

But in the next second, Mike seemed to suddenly think of something, and said very playfully: "Do you think they will really have a photolithography machine by then?"

"It's not impossible."

"After all, they can still build micron-level photolithography machines."

Faced with Mike's question, Brady responded in a very cooperative manner, which heightened the atmosphere even more.

——

Perhaps because this matter is more important in the eyes of everyone, and the time given by the Chinese Academy of Sciences is too hard to believe, relevant content can still be seen everywhere on the Internet a few days after the announcement.

Most people do not believe that the Chinese Academy of Sciences can produce high-end lithography machines in a short period of time.

But it is against this background that Huawei's mid-range mobile phone brand Xingyao officially released its new flagship phone through its official account.

As a well-known brand, it immediately attracted the attention of many people as soon as the news came out.

But the most shocking thing is that this phone is equipped with a Tamron chip.

The key price is only half of the previous Tamron chip phone.

Just over three thousand yuan.

You must know that due to price reasons, the mid-range market can be said to occupy a large share of the entire mobile phone market. Now you can use the Tamron chip with the strongest performance at half the price. The number of people who want to buy this mobile phone will only be More.

In addition, video bloggers in the major digital review areas who cooperated with Xingyao quickly released review videos after getting the prototype, causing the popularity to show explosive growth.

Of course, while everyone decided to wait for the launch of the Starlight Tenglong chip mobile phone for sale, they also discussed this situation that should not occur.

Something doesn't feel right inside.

Everyone knows that Tamron chips are currently unable to be produced. The current sales of Tamron chip mobile phones on the market are entirely supported by initial orders.

Let’s not talk about how many Tamron chips Warwick has in stock.

In the past, it may have been able to meet market needs only when used on high-end flagship phones, but it is completely different when it is also used on Galaxy phones.

After all, the sales gap between the two mobile phones is not even a tiny bit.

This abnormal situation reminds everyone again of the announcement issued by the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

A bold idea came to mind.

Warwick can use Tamron chips without any scruples. The most convincing guess is that they don't have to worry about the supply of chips, but other wafer factories still cannot produce them.

There is only one explanation...

Could it be that domestic high-end lithography machines have really made a major technological breakthrough and can complete assembly and testing before and after the Spring Festival?

Although this view was still rejected by many people after it was raised, the inability to explain the operation of the Tamron chip on the Starlight mobile phone made everyone look forward to the Spring Festival even more.

Xu Lei didn't take it to heart whether it was Mike's little moves or the comments made by people on the domestic Internet, because he was immersed in the process of preparing photoresist and other technical research.

The members who lead the project research team often work overtime to catch up with the progress, just to try to assemble this top-notch photolithography machine before the Spring Festival.

Think of it as a New Year gift, and let everyone have a happy and exciting New Year.
