511: Lin Chen sneered!

“Mr. Lin Chen, we are willing to resume the supply and use of industrial software for your Shuguang Technology, Shuguang Semiconductor, Shuguang R&D Center, Shuguang Electronics, Shuguang Manufacturing, and other companies, provided that you resume the supply of Pure Compression Ignition Gasoline Engines!”

Lin Chen smiled upon hearing the other party’s concession.

“Too late!”

Lin Chen spoke with a rather cruel tone.

“You!”

Comps, the foreign representative, immediately erupted in rage upon hearing Lin Chen's words. He angrily pointed at Lin Chen, as if his tail had been stepped on.

However, Lin Chen at this moment showed no pleasantries to the other party and continued to walk towards the door.

After all, the price offered by the other party was still too low. He was already accelerating the resolution of industrial software issues, and whether they resumed or not had little impact on Shuguang Technology anymore.

Because in just a few months, Shuguang Technology would be able to completely solve the industrial software problem. In this situation, it was merely a matter of time.

“Wait, Mr. Lin Chen.”

Seeing Lin Chen's resolute intention to leave, the foreign representative Comps bowed his head again, gritting his teeth and saying, “We are also willing to push the Ministry of Commerce to withdraw the punishment against Shuguang Technology and restore everything to normal.”

Lin Chen had not yet spoken when the influential figure responsible for the connection on the other side immediately began to persuade Lin Chen, urging him to consider carefully.

After all, the fallout between Shuguang Technology and the White-headed Eagle would ultimately cause significant damage to both Daxia's semiconductor industry and Shuguang Technology.

If everything could be restored to its previous state at this moment, it would naturally be a good thing for Shuguang Technology.

In response, under the persuasion of the influential figure, Lin Chen did not show an expression of agreement or disagreement. At this moment, no one could discern anything from Lin Chen's face.

In response, the foreign representative Comps on the other side quickly said, “Mr. Lin Chen, your act of interrupting cooperation with United States companies ultimately harms both parties. It can be said that both Shuguang Technology and those companies have suffered huge losses.

Your Shuguang Semiconductor, Shuguang Manufacturing, Shuguang Electronics, and other companies have to pay huge liquidated damages. It can be said that two or three months of profit for those three companies will be invested in this liquidated damages compensation.

The same goes for United States's technology and automobile companies, so a compromise between our two sides is the best outcome.”

At this point, to add weight to Lin Chen's agreement, the foreign representative Comps quickly said, “As for the previous incident of interrupted cooperation, our Medi Country Semiconductor Alliance and Medeguo Automobile and Petroleum Alliance are willing to express understanding for your actions.

The liquidated damages you have already paid can be fully refunded to you, and the previously signed contracts will remain unchanged.

We will still find you for chip OEM, still find you for electronic product OEM, still purchase your Pure Compression Ignition Gasoline Engines, and the volume of all OEM orders and purchase orders is willing to increase by 1.5 times!”

Upon hearing the foreign representative's words, the influential figure responsible for the connection immediately became even more excited, and he quickly urged Lin Chen not to act impulsively.

“Let me consider it.”

Hearing the sincerity expressed by the other party, Lin Chen could only indicate that he needed to delay and think it over first.

Because if everything could be restored to normal at this moment, it would naturally be a good thing for Shuguang Technology and other companies. Shuguang Technology would not have to worry about losing United States, the world's largest consumer market.

Nor would it have to face the 13 billion dollar fine, and it would still have time to research industrial software and other core technologies.

Therefore, if everything could be restored to normal at this moment, it would also be beneficial for Shuguang Technology and various other companies.

Of course, both Lin Chen and the foreign representative Comps knew that even if the two sides reached a compromise this time, it would actually only temporarily suppress and postpone the conflict.

Because after this incident, both sides truly wished to completely eliminate the other. In this situation, this compromise was naturally just a temporary truce.

As for the root cause of the next incident, it will be when the West successfully develops a new High-Entropy Alloy that can replace Dawn High-Entropy Alloy!

Because for the White-headed Eagle, their most feared and troublesome point was the series of terrible events triggered by the Pure Compression Ignition Engine supply cut-off, indirectly causing a surge in unemployment in the automotive industry.

When the West masters High-Entropy Alloy and uses their High-Entropy Alloy to produce Pure Compression Ignition Gasoline Engines, this suppressed conflict will naturally erupt again!

“Mr. Lin Chen, we await your good news.”

At this moment, the foreign representative Comps said with a bowing and scraping demeanor, completely different from his previous arrogant attitude, making people unable to help but sigh that foreigners are indeed foreigners.

This ability to bully the weak and fear the strong is truly ingrained in their bones. If Lin Chen's attitude had been even slightly softer just now, or if he had shown any intention of compromise between the two sides.

Then at this moment, the other party would absolutely not have made so many concessions and allowed everything to return to its previous state.

Thus, this meeting entered a halftime break. The foreign representative Comps was discussing with the forces behind him, while Lin Chen was also negotiating with a group of senior executives from various companies within the Dawnlight System.

“I think we should compromise first.”

The speaker at this moment was Lei Bu Si, the General Manager of Shuguang Technology. After speaking, he stated his opinion:

“Although both we and they all know that this is just a temporary truce, a more fierce conflict will still erupt again in a year or even a year and a half.

But that is a matter for a year or a year and a half from now, and now is the present.

There is still a huge gap between our Daxia's semiconductor manufacturing process and that of the West, and the research and development of other industrial software also requires several months.

During these few months, because we lack professional industrial software, our research and development speed and other aspects have been forced to stop. It can be said that our current preparations are completely insufficient.

Of course, the most important thing is that our income will decrease after losing the United States market, and without funds, wanting to develop quickly will be a luxury.

If we drag the time to a year or a year and a half later, and face the same scenario again, we will become more at ease when facing the same situation.

So I suggest that both sides compromise first and push the conflict time back to a year from now.”

“I share the same view.”

Ni Guangnan on the other side also expressed the same opinion, all agreeing to compromise first.

Even if the West might immediately turn hostile after having High-Entropy Alloy a year from now, and target Shuguang Technology again like this time.

But a year later, with their preparations, they would absolutely not face such a predicament and difficulty, so Ni Guangnan naturally wanted both sides to compromise first to gain time for development.

“Master, I also share this view.”

Chen Dong, the person in charge of Shuguang Manufacturing and Shuguang Electronics on the other side, also expressed a consistent view.

“I also share this view.”

Professor Zhang Rujing, the head of Shuguang Semiconductor on the other side, also expressed his opinion.

At this moment, almost everyone present expressed agreement to compromise first to gain development time, as a war at this point would be truly terrible for Shuguang Technology.

Facing the concessions offered by the other party to restore everything to normal, the senior executives naturally chose to quell this conflict for now.

However, Lin Chen was ultimately the one to make the final decision. At this moment, after expressing their opinions, the senior executives all focused their gaze on Lin Chen, awaiting his final response.
