Chapter 163: The Lithography Machine Is in Hand

Intel and Samsung are willing to exchange seismographs, this answer is beyond Chen Mo's expectations.

Originally thought that if there is a company willing to exchange, they are already very happy, because their purpose is to get the lithography machine. Now there are two companies, and he can't ask for it.

The cost of the seismograph is not high, and he will not mind if there is an extra lithography machine.

"Both companies want four seismographs, and there are no other requirements," Zhao Min said.

"Four units? They don't suffer." Chen Mo said: "Switch with them, it's not bad for this one anyway."

Not long after the news was announced, the two companies contacted them with the obvious intention of using seismographs to study earthquake early warning technology.

"Okay." Zhao Min agreed immediately.

Seismographs are used for export. Since they dare to export, they are naturally not afraid of technology leakage. The core chip, the algorithm and the seismograph system inside are all encrypted, and it is almost impossible to obtain the algorithm, so Chen Mo is not afraid that they can imitate the seismograph.

Even if all the hardware is manufactured, without the core algorithm and seismograph system, it is just an empty shell and has no effect.

Both sides want to change, so there is no resistance to trading with the two companies. The two countries of South Korea and the United States want to get the seismograph, and the Army Ant Company and Huaxia want the lithography machine. They are all cutting-edge technologies. Both sides take what they need, so the exchange is not restricted by the governments of the three countries.

Two weeks later, the exchange between the two sides was successfully completed.

Chishangjiang was sitting in the reception room of Intel Corporation, his face was flushed with a smile, and he seemed to have a big happy event.

Not long after, seeing Paul walk in, Chishangjiang's face immediately looked like a blooming chrysanthemum. Without saying a word, he greeted him, more like welcoming the arrival of his master.

"President Paul, nice to meet you."

Paul despised Chishang Jiang's flattering face in his heart, but didn't show it: "Ambassador Chishang came over in person, what's the matter?"

Paul is also in a good mood, because he has successfully exchanged the seismometer with Army Ant Company. Their company's stock price has been rising these days, and Intel's market value is also rising. The influence of the seismometer is beyond his expectations.

Now I just got the seismograph, and their market value is already optimistic. If they really get the earthquake early warning technology, their company will definitely be in his hands.

rise to another level.

"President Paul, I came here this time to ask about the seismograph. Can you sell us a seismograph?" Chi Shangjiang didn't talk nonsense.

"Seismograph? I need to think about this," Paul said.

If the seismograph is sold to the people of the island country, it means that their research will have one more competitor, which they do not want to see. Although the island country is small, its scientific research ability is definitely stronger than that of their company. Now sell the seismograph to the islanders, and they are making wedding dresses for others.

"President Paul, when will there be a reply? The price is easy to say. We are willing to bid $100 million to buy one." Chi Shangjiang said.

Now the island country is in urgent need of seismographs. Who is not sure when the next earthquake will come? After the last major earthquake, there were two large aftershocks, and they suffered a lot.

They need seismographs more than any other country.

"Well, I will reply to you in a while." Paul thought for a while and said.

The same scene happened in South Korea.

The island country can't wait to get the seismograph, but the island country government does not have a lithography machine, so it cannot be exchanged with the Army Ant Company, and the Army Ant Company will not sell it for the time being, and can only make two ideas.

Only the two companies that got the seismograph did not trade with the island country. The seismographs that they spent so much effort to obtain cannot be handed over to the island country as a wedding dress.

at the same time.

Chen Mo and Zhao Min are walking on the campus of the company headquarters. Now the company headquarters is undergoing the final decoration, and the park has a basic prototype.

The construction of the headquarters industrial park, coupled with rush work, cost them a lot of money.

The headquarters of the Army Ant Company is called the ant nest, which is the nest of the army ants. The headquarters is shaped like a ring structure of an ant's nest. It is not too high, but it occupies a large area. The low-profile version of the bird's nest, but the shape is different, it is not a steel structure, and the exterior is wrapped in irregular glass, which is beautiful.

In addition to the basic office area, there are restaurants, supermarkets, fitness gyms and multi-purpose halls, as well as internal and external meeting rooms.

Each area is like a cave in an ant nest. Inside the ring, there are various passages leading to each area. In the center of the ring is a green area, which looks like a glass ant nest from a distance.

Next to the headquarters building, there is another form of ant nest, which is an independent research institute, and there is a connecting channel between it and the headquarters.

There are also factory workshops, warehouses, and staff quarters in the park. The planning of the headquarters is for 10,000 people to live and work.

It has now entered the final stage, and it will be several months before it is put into use.

Chen Mo and Zhao Min were heading towards the institute at this time.

The two lithography machines exchanged by the seismograph were both airlifted back. Because it is a special instrument, after returning to the airport, it will be transported back to the research institute at the headquarters through emergency procedures.

"Because our temporary headquarters did not have a constant temperature room, it was shipped back here. Now the lithography machine is in a constant temperature container and sent to the basement constant temperature room of the institute." Zhao Min introduced.

They don't have to worry about safety issues. At the beginning of the construction of the park, the research institute and headquarters building were built first. The renovation of the research institute and the headquarters building has been completed, and many experimental equipment have also been installed.

To be precise, the headquarters building and research institute can now be put into use, but the staff dormitory has not been completely renovated, so it will take three or four months to move in.

"In the research institute, there are security guards, monitoring and security systems, which are similar to the temporary headquarters. Anan and Black Eagle are responsible for the security here. All security personnel are retired soldiers."

Chen Mo listened carefully to Zhao Min's introduction, and soon, a group of people entered the research institute. No one is staying now, and the institute seems a bit empty.

The lithography machine was in the clean room, and after wearing protective clothing, several people entered the institute.

In the basement of the second floor of the institute, Chen Mo successfully saw the lithography machine in the constant temperature room, which didn't look very big, with the obvious logo of ASML on it.

The two lithography machines together are not as big as a container. This kind of lithography machine consists of 50,000 parts. In the past, Huaxia tried every means, but there was no equipment that could be obtained.

"The packaging machine and the furnace are being purchased. With the lithography machine, it is much easier to purchase other machines." Zhao Min said.

"Well." Chen Mo nodded and looked around the packaging machine: "Can the machine run normally?"

"The technician has checked it, and there is no problem." Zhao Min said.

"That's good."

For these two machines, they spent a lot of effort, and now they have saved a lot of trouble.

At least his research on superconducting chips can be carried out smoothly without worrying that the technology is too backward. With superconducting chips, the research on superconducting supercomputers is not much hindered.

But all of this can only start after moving into the headquarters.

After checking the lithography machine, they walked around the headquarters campus before Chen Mo, Zhao Min and others rushed back to the company's office building.
