Chapter 216 Insulted
It didn't take long for Li Chengqian's information to be released.
This piece of information traveled across the ocean and was delivered to the information department of Sunset.
"Fack, I remember that Shenlong Software Company is an operating system supplier, a software company... and it is a company that has not been established for a long time. They have the ability to manufacture advanced lithography machines?" After seeing the information, the supervisor Bob said, Be skeptical.
"Director, Shenlong Software released the Shenlong system in the first month after its establishment... Now the Shenlong system has occupied almost all the computer and server markets." The staff of the intelligence center reminded.
"Boy, in software development, as long as you are talented enough, you can indeed make a huge breakthrough."
"But in terms of equipment, genius alone is useless! This requires accumulation, not the accumulation of one person, but the industrial strength and accumulation of a country."
"Shenlong's technology in lithography machine lenses, light sources, and precision motors is not good enough, and they can't buy corresponding accessories from other countries. It is absolutely impossible for them to produce 7nm DUV lithography machines." Bob said with great confidence.
"The lithography machines they produce themselves, the most advanced ones are 90nm lithography machines! That's garbage from decades ago." Bob's tone carried a sense of superiority.
In addition to Sunset, another company that pays attention to the development of Shenlong lithography machine is ASML.
ASML is the world's most advanced photolithography machine manufacturing company.
The company has specially set up an information department to pay attention to the development of lithography machines and lithography machine-related technologies and components around the world.
The information released by Li Chengqian was quickly discovered by ASML's information department.
"This is extremely important and terrifying information!" After seeing the information released by Li Chengqian, Louise, the senior vice president in charge of information collection, looked solemn.
"If this message is true, our company is likely to be in danger." Louise felt very heavy.
According to Shenlong's past situation, as long as Shenlong breaks through a certain technology, relying on Shenlong's strong national strength and cheap labor, after mass production, it will inevitably impact the price of lithography machines.
ASML's lithography machines are expensive, and if there is a price war, it will definitely not be the opponent of Shenlong Software.
"Let's go, let's go to the Vice President of Business immediately..."
Suddenly, Louise remembered something, and her face suddenly became serious.
A few days ago, Shenlong National Chip Company came over for business negotiations and wanted to buy a DUV lithography machine.
Chiert, the vice president of ASML International Business, is a sunset person, and he has never had the slightest affection for Shenlong.
Especially a few days ago, when the doomsday ransomware virus was raging, Shenlong System became the world's largest operating system supplier in one fell swoop, knocking down the pride of the sunset, the window system, from the altar.
The anger towards the Shenlongren in his heart reached its peak.
so…
Chiert arrogantly doubled the price of a single lithography machine to 600 million dragon coins, wanting to take this opportunity to vent his anger.
Because of the advanced DUV lithography machine, Shenlong wanted to buy it elsewhere, but couldn't.
ASML is doing an exclusive business, so it is natural to charge as much price as you want.
The buyer basically has no bargaining power.
…
At this moment, in the International Business Center of ASML, National Chip Corporation and Cheilt are having a new round of conversations.
In this conversation, Chailter proposed even harsher conditions.
"Huang Jun, right? The price of our DUV lithography machine is 600 million units... This will never change." Chaiert's attitude is extremely arrogant and superior.
"In addition, we, ASML, are not responsible for delivery, and the delivery location is changed here!"
"Also, you must pay 100% of the payment before you can take the lithography machine away from here."
"Actually, we agreed to sell the DUV lithography machine to Shenlong, and we took a huge risk on ASML!"
"This is our condition..." Chailter spread his hands and said with pride in his eyes.
After hearing the conditions, Huang Jun of the National Chip Corporation was very angry, and his face was extremely ugly.
He couldn't bear it anymore, and stood up directly, "Mr. Chailter, we agreed before we came that the price of a lithography machine is 300 million!"
"The conditions you propose now are completely different from the conditions communicated before!"
"This is not in line with business rules and business reputation!"
"You guys, this is extortion!"
"We cannot accept these conditions!"
"I asked to see your CEO."
Chilter looked at Huang Jun's angry eyes, and the corners of his mouth became more and more proud.
Just impotent rage!
what's the function?
In the end, he could only agree to the conditions he proposed.
Because Shenlong has no other choice.
Except for ASML, no one will sell duv lithography machines to Shenlong.
Chilter shrugged his shoulders again with a playful smile, and said with an exaggerated smile, "Sorry, our CEO is on a business trip, and it may take about 3 months to come back. He can't see you now."
Huang Jun was extremely angry, but he was still suppressing his anger, and kept the most basic etiquette and said, "Mr. Chailter, may I ask where your CEO is on a business trip? I can go to him."
"I'm sorry, the whereabouts of the CEO is a company secret, I can't tell you!" The smile on Chaiert's face became more obvious.
He was deliberately embarrassing Huang Jun, he was playing with Huang Jun!
"Mr. Huang Jun, this is our condition!"
"If you can't accept it, please leave!"
"Don't waste each other's time."
"I still have something to do, today's meeting is over."
Chilter stood up triumphantly like a general who had won a battle, and then walked towards the gate without any nostalgia.
When approaching the door, Chailter turned his head and said to Huang Jun, who was extremely angry, "By the way, if you can't accept my conditions, don't come here in the future..."
"Doesn't do much except waste time."
"Our ASML is a top international company. We accept orders from all over the world. I am very busy."
"My time is precious, and I don't have so much time to waste with you." Chailter sneered, sneering at Huang Jun.
Huang Jun clenched his hands tightly, feeling extremely bitter in his heart.
During this time in ASML, this kind of deliberate ridicule and insult was often encountered.
But even so, he can't leave!
Because Shenlong needs DUV lithography machine very much!
As long as the DUV lithography machine can be bought back to solve the production problem of the chip, no matter how much grievance and insult they suffer, it is worth it.
He suppressed the grievance in his heart, and walked out of ASML with the people from the National Chip Company.
Along the way, many employees who knew the situation said in a low voice with a smile.
"Oh, looking at the appearance of these Shenlong people, they must have been insulted by Vice President Chailt again."
"Poor them!"
"Vice President Chailt has a deep prejudice against Shenlongren."
"If I were one of these dragon-men, I would have killed Cheert with one shot."
"They dare not, because they are begging us to sell duv lithography machines to them! Once they offend the vice president of Cheilt, they will be finished."
After hearing these words, Huang Jun and the staff who came with him became even more ugly.
