There's a black hole inside me

Chapter 73 Self-reliance

"Mr. Wei!"

The two people, who were arguing with red faces, stopped and looked at him together.

"Tell me, what's going on? When I'm not in the company, you all quarrel like this every day?"

Wei Ming pulled up a chair, sat down, crossed his legs and said calmly.

"Mr. Wei, you should take care of Li Yi!"

Pu Weicai first complained: "My 'photolithography machine R\u0026D department' is almost completely messed up by him! Please tell him to stop messing around, he should just go ahead and work on his chips."

Hear this.

Wei Ming looked at Li Yi and said, "Brother Yi, what bad things have you done? Dr. Pu has a lot of opinions on you."

"I'm doing this entirely for the good of the company!"

Li Yi raised his neck and said calmly: "According to Brother Pu's method, let alone two years, even three or five years, we may not be able to make a high-end lithography machine. The efficiency is too low. It all depends on If someone else gives you charity, once it gets stuck, you won’t be able to build a few lithography machines in a year, so his method won’t work.”

"Your method is even worse!"

Pu Weicai responded tit-for-tat: "Abandoning imported parts and using a large number of domestic parts will only lead to a high failure rate, which will lead to a significant reduction in chip output and yield. There will be no market competitiveness at all, and no foundries will dare to buy. It will fall into your own hands."

"As long as you use it to create a 5-nanometer or 3-nanometer purely domestic chip, it will definitely be sold! Because it breaks the long-term foreign monopoly and achieves zero breakthroughs, even for this purpose, there will definitely be Companies are interested in it.”

"What's the use of selling a few units? The stability of the lithography machines is poor, the chip yield rate is low, and there is no competitiveness in the market. Once the ban on the sale of high-end lithography machines is lifted abroad, our products will not be competitive. Got into trouble immediately.”

"This is what I want to achieve! At least they don't dare to ban sales anymore. As long as they can do this, it will be a huge victory!"

"Victory? Our company's photolithography machine business will be dead at that time. What kind of victory is this? If we can't survive and collapse, they choose to re-embargo or raise prices significantly, and we will still lose in the end!"

"As long as we master the core technology, they will never embargo it! Besides, the country will not look down on us. We can live well by just giving some military industry orders..."

The two had a very heated argument again.

Wei Ming listened to their argument for half an hour, asked them a few questions each, and finally understood what was going on.

Li Yi is a purely domestic party. As long as it is domestic equipment, even if it has poor performance and low reliability, as long as you have it and can barely use it, it is of great significance. In particular, it must be independent, controllable, and not dependent on others. No one can block it.

Pu Weicai is a machine builder. Each of the 100,000 parts that make up a high-end photolithography machine must be flawless and have the highest quality in terms of accuracy, lifespan, reliability, etc. Only parts that are all top-notch Parts can be assembled into a high-end photolithography machine.

During the quarrel, Pu Weicai said a few words that impressed Wei Ming deeply.

"If the difficulty factor of manufacturing a hydrogen bomb is 10, then the difficulty of manufacturing a high-end lithography machine is at least 100."

"The parts in EsMed's high-end lithography machines come from hundreds of top manufacturing companies in more than 20 developed countries. They are a collection of the world's top industrial technologies in the entire developed region. China can achieve half of its self-sufficiency rate. It’s very, very impressive. It’s impossible to achieve 100% self-sufficiency! This means that China will be on par with the entire developed world, and that will take at least thirty years!”

"Many established companies in the West, regardless of the size of their small workshops with only a few dozen people, often have a history of one or two hundred years. Why should the technological achievements they have painstakingly polished by several or more than a dozen generations be lost to us in ten years? struggle?"

"I have been studying photolithography machines for more than ten years. I have tried to use domestic parts to see if I can build a photolithography machine. In the end, my efforts failed. As long as the reliability of 10 parts is lower than 99%, Its failure rate exceeds 10%, not to mention that it contains 50,000 parts that cannot be made in China.”

"In the field of high-end lithography machines, we must make every part the best! Otherwise we will not be able to compete head-on with foreign products. As long as they come out with major flaws, they will soon be swept away from the market. Tactically, we No matter how diligent you are, once you are lazy in the strategic direction, you will only fail!"

Pu Weicai's inspiring words fell silent.

The conference room was quiet.

a long time.

Wei Ming put down his legs and took a sip of the tea in front of him.

He put down the cup again and said to Pu Weicai: "Dr. Pu is right. If the technical indicators of the lithography machine we build do not meet or exceed the lithography machine of ASMED, then it is better not to use it." We are going to die by putting it on the market. We don’t make garbage. If we want to make it, we make products that will overwhelm them and make them frightened and desperate!”

"Thank you Mr. Wei for your support!"

Pu Weicai was overjoyed and turned to Li Yi and said: "Did you hear that, Li Yi? From now on, you should stop interfering in the lithography machine R\u0026D department."

"Mr. Wei!"

Li Yi was anxious: "If this continues, I think it will take at least five years to build a high-end lithography machine, and it will be severely restricted by others!"

"Brother Yi is right, and I support your point of view."

Wei Ming turned to Li Yi again, making him look happy: "If someone asks the West whether they will block us, I think they can remove the word 'will'. They will definitely block us! Don't count on them." You can survive by giving. We must dispel this illusion! If we want to grow and thrive normally, we can only rely on four words - self-reliance."

"Thank you, Mr. Wei, for understanding. That's what I want to say!"

Li Yi said excitedly that Wei Ming's words spoke to his heart.

"Mr. Wei..." Pu Weicai opened his mouth anxiously and wanted to speak again.

"so!"

But I heard Wei Ming say decisively: "Walking on two legs, be prepared with both hands, and both hands must be strong! On the one hand, do not use domestically produced substandard parts to make up the numbers. Use them if you can. For high-end parts that can be imported from abroad, use them first." Import and assemble the first EUV as soon as possible; on the other hand, we will build a high-end parts production plant specifically for the production of photolithography machine parts, and localize the other half that cannot be achieved by ourselves! "

Do you want to localize the other half yourself?

Not to mention Pu Weicai, even Li Yi was stunned and suspected that he had heard wrongly.

This is no longer simply arrogant, but is similar to making a declaration like talking in sleep.

Wei Ming saw the disbelief on their faces and smiled and said: "You just need to build the parts processing factory as quickly as possible. You don't have to worry about whether you can manufacture high-precision parts later. The most difficult photolithography lens I can provide them all. Are you afraid that you can’t make qualified parts? Trust me, I can solve all parts problems for you.”

"Okay, Mr. Wei, I believe you!"

Pu Weicai felt confident in his heart. The principles of industrial processing are largely the same. Since he can take out the photolithography lens, there is really no big problem in making other parts.

"Leave the factory to me and I will get it done as quickly as possible!"

Li Yi volunteered and took over the job. Although he didn't know President Wei very well and didn't have as much confidence as Pu Weicai, he absolutely supported and welcomed President Wei's move to build a parts factory.

As long as self-reliance can be achieved, even if it requires a hundred or a thousand factories, as long as the resources and conditions are available, he will definitely be responsible for building them!
