241: Do you want to develop lithography machines?
"Why do these companies lack foresight? Their core components rely on technology they don't possess. Doesn't that put them completely at the mercy of others?" Liu Xiaolin didn't understand.
"Maybe everyone was deceived by the Beautiful Country. They kept promoting that Earth is one village, where you produce this and I produce that, and then we coordinate with each other to save Earth's resources," Hong Tongtong said. "Who knew they would turn around and stab us in the back?"
"So what do we do now?" Liu Xiaolin asked casually.
"Of course, we hope a company can step up and independently research and develop a lithography machine that can produce Chips," Hong Tongtong said.
"A lithography machine? Is it difficult to develop?" Liu Xiaolin asked.
"It should be very difficult. Otherwise, why doesn't our Dragon Country have a single lithography machine?" Hong Tongtong said worriedly.
"How about we develop a lithography machine together?" Liu Xiaolin suddenly had a bold idea.
"What did you say? Are you crazy? We develop a lithography machine together? How is that possible?" Hong Tongtong was so scared she asked several questions in a row.
"What's impossible about it? Beautiful Country has lithography machines; weren't they also created by people? Why can't we do it?" Liu Xiaolin said dismissively.
"But, lithography machines require very high-end technology. Where do we have that technology? How can we use light to create the pattern you want? How can we do that?" Hong Tongtong still couldn't believe it.
"They also have one head and two hands. If they can do it, why can't we? Be more confident, okay?" Liu Xiaolin lightly tapped Hong Tongtong's forehead and said with a smile.
What Hong Tongtong didn't know was that at this moment, Liu Xiaolin had already heard the sound of the strongest manufacturing system prompting him to receive a gift package.
"Detected that the host has a strong patriotic heart. The most advanced lithography machine research and development system is now activated, and a gift package is presented. Open now?"
Liu Xiaolin silently said without hesitation, "Open."
Ding dong!
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining a complete set of lithography machine design blueprints."
Ding dong!
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining a lithography machine production workshop."
Ding dong!
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining lithography machine manufacturing technology and training manuals."
"So when do we start? I'll research and develop the lithography machine with you? Should I wait until it's successfully developed before I take the postgraduate entrance exam?" Seeing that Liu Xiaolin wasn't joking at all, Hong Tongtong also became extremely interested.
"We'll start tomorrow. We need to first purchase an electronics company, then recruit a group of high-end technical talents, and then we can begin the research and development. Perhaps it won't delay your postgraduate entrance exam at the end of the year." With the design blueprints, Liu Xiaolin was full of confidence at this moment.
"Huh?" Hong Tongtong looked at Liu Xiaolin dumbfounded.
"What do you mean 'Huh'? Tomorrow I'll go find a suitable electronics company to discuss the purchase. As for you, immediately find two foundation staff members, free up their time, and have them come meet me." Liu Xiaolin lightly patted Hong Tongtong's cheek and said.
"Okay, I can definitely recruit staff members tomorrow, but whether you can buy an electronics company tomorrow is still a question mark." Hong Tongtong finally found a point to argue with Liu Xiaolin about.
"I can ask General Manager Gao. She interacts with many electronics companies and deals with them frequently, so she should be able to help me." Liu Xiaolin already had an idea.
"Oh right, it seems her medical equipment company deals with many electronics companies. Asking her will definitely work." Hong Tongtong suddenly understood.
"Yeah, after I made this decision, she was the first person I thought of," Liu Xiaolin said with a smile.
"So you're not going to manage things at Wanderer Aerospace Headquarters anymore? And the major overhaul project for the great bear won't be finished anytime soon," Hong Tongtong asked worriedly.
"I just walk around there; I'm not much use. As long as Engineer Niu is there, it's like having a stabilizing force." Liu Xiaolin said carelessly, "Now my several companies are all managed by very capable people. It's the same whether I'm there or not, which is why I have time to do what I want to do."
"Alright then, since you're fully prepared, I'll support you with all my might! Now, I'm going to pick up Auntie. You quickly contact General Manager Gao and try to get some information about electronics companies." Hong Tongtong was also a person of action. Since they decided to do it, she urged Liu Xiaolin to start quickly.
"Got it, be careful driving on the road. I'll contact General Manager Gao right away," Liu Xiaolin said with a smile.
"Okay, I'm leaving now. Auntie will probably be getting impatient soon," Hong Tongtong said, waved, and left.
Liu Xiaolin immediately found his phone and called Gao Yuying: "Hello, General Manager Gao."
"General Manager Liu, hello. Why are you calling right after we just parted ways? Are you regretting giving the patent to Professor Liang for free? The contract is signed and can't be changed," Gao Yuying actually knew Liu Xiaolin wasn't that kind of person, but still wanted to tease him.
"General Manager Gao, don't joke around. I'm a man who always keeps his word and follows through. How could I do something so untrustworthy?" Liu Xiaolin said with a smile.
"Just teasing you. Don't I know what kind of person General Manager Liu is? You always stand by your word." Gao Yuying asked with a smile, "So tell me, what do you need when calling me? I know you're a busy person who only shows up when there's something important."
"I'm still blind, how can I be busy?" Liu Xiaolin coughed twice and cleared his throat. "There is indeed something I need your help with."
"Don't talk about helping or not helping. Just say it quickly. I'll definitely do my best," Gao Yuying said readily.
"It's like this, I want to acquire an electronics company. Can you help me look for one?" Liu Xiaolin got straight to the point.
"Huh? Don't you think you have enough on your plate? Why did you suddenly think of acquiring an electronics company?" Gao Yuying was very surprised.
"Let's keep this a secret for now. Once I've successfully completed this matter, you'll naturally know." Liu Xiaolin didn't want this matter to become widely known. If Beautiful Country found out, they might cause him trouble.
"Okay, since you're not saying, I won't ask." Gao Yuying thought for a moment and said, "Our company has indeed dealt with many electronics companies, but lately, I really haven't heard of any electronics company that's for sale."
"Is that so..." Liu Xiaolin was a bit disappointed. He had originally thought that asking Gao Yuying would definitely be fine.
"Don't be disappointed. I can inquire with those electronics companies. Maybe they have some information," Gao Yuying quickly comforted him.
"Alright then, I'll wait for your good news." Although Liu Xiaolin was very disappointed, he still politely expressed his thanks.
