Chapter 216

Representatives of various companies in the U.S. looked at each other, and Rose, the representative of the fruit company, said first: "Mr. Tang, I want to know why your company doesn't sell us three-nanometer process chips and the latest lithography machines? Is it technology blockade by international companies outside the country? Or discrimination?”

The reason why Ross asked about the latest photolithography machine is that the company that produces high-end photoresist and supporting reagents in Meiguo is working overtime to rebuild the factory building, and the researchers are also trying to restore technical details and parameters based on memory, and this The time will not be too long, and it is likely to be able to produce high-end photoresist within a few months. At that time, if there is a high-end photolithography machine, you can produce high-end chips yourself. Of course, this may require a lot of technology, but the fruit company I also don't want to be controlled by others in terms of chips.

Ross spoke English, Tang Xiaochuan could barely understand, spread his hands: "Sorry, I don't know what you are talking about! If you want to communicate with me normally, please speak Chinese with me!"

Ross was at a loss, he couldn't understand Chinese either, and his assistant Thomas translated just now.

Dai Wei, president of the Asian region of the fruit company, immediately said: "Mr. Tang, if you don't mind, I can act as an interpreter for both parties!"

After getting approval from Tang Xiaochuan, Dai Wei translated Ross's original words.

Tang Xiaochuan crossed his hands on the conference table after listening, and looked at Ross: "Discrimination can't be said, technology blockade, you can think so, in many technical fields, don't your companies do the same to our companies? Since you can do the first grade, why can't we do the fifteenth?"

"For a technology company, the most cutting-edge technology is the biggest commercial secret, which any technology company in the world will do everything possible to keep secret, and sell three-nanometer process chips and the latest optical technology to your company. The engraving machine is likely to allow you to understand our production technology! Chips and equipment of other processes can be discussed, but these two, I am very sorry, there is no room for negotiation!"

Woods from Intel Corporation asked: "Mr. Tang, as far as I know, you have sold three-nanometer process chips to several companies in your country, and you have also sold the latest lithography machines to some companies! So it’s not wrong to sell these to us because we are a company of Meiguo, right?”

After Dai Wei translated, Tang Xiaochuan said with a smile: "Of course it is not for this reason. We are just a commercial company. As long as there is business, we will do it. We will not sell three-nanometer chips and the latest lithography machines to your companies." On the one hand, it is because our production capacity is insufficient; the second reason is that our domestic companies do not have the strength to understand our technology for the time being, and we can sell them to them with confidence, but your company is different, you have enough strength and technology In a very short period of time, we can understand our technology and craftsmanship."

After Tang Xiaochuan finished speaking, the conference room fell into a brief silence, and no one spoke.

After a few seconds, Ross continued to work hard: "Mr. Tang, as long as your company agrees to sell three-nanometer process chips and the latest lithography machines, we can offer a high price, and the price can be negotiated!"

Tang Xiaochuan said: "This is not a matter of price, I am very sorry! Everyone, if you want to purchase chips and other equipment with a process of more than three nanometers, we are very happy to serve you. The specific matters are in charge of our company's general manager Liu. I still have something to do. , I will not accompany you!"

"Please wait a moment, Mr. Tang, I have something to talk to you alone!" Tang Xiaochuan was stopped by Mark, the boss of Terra Company, as soon as he reached the door.

Tang Xiaochuan stopped and turned around to look at Mark, the middle-aged foreigner currently recognized as the top two richest in the world, and tilted his head after thinking about it: "Okay, please follow me!"

Tang Xiaochuan took Mark to the small conference room, and the two talked across the conference table.

After the staff brought the tea, Tang Xiaochuan raised his hand: "Mr. Mark, you can speak directly if you have something to say!"

Mark thought for a while and said: "Mr. Tang, I know that a car manufacturing company called Blueprint has sprung up in your country recently. The cars they produce seem ordinary to me, but their battery power has unique features. On the one hand, as far as I know, your company supplies solid-state batteries and related parts for the electric vehicles of Lantu Automobile Manufacturing Company. You also know that my Terra Motors company is also engaged in new energy, so I think our Terra company can We will cooperate with your company in solid-state battery and charging technology!"

Tang Xiaochuan asked with a smile, "How about a cooperation method?"

Mark immediately started lobbying: "Our two companies can jointly establish a company in Meiguo. Your country will provide charging technology and part of the capital as a shareholder. The rest of the funds will be borne by us. We will open a factory in Meiguo to produce solid-state batteries. What does Mr. Tang think about the construction of charging stations in various parts of Meiguo?"

Tang Xiaochuan thought for a while, "Mr. Mark, your proposal can be considered, but I can not only choose your family to cooperate, but you should know that you yourself are in the field of new energy. Your company is in the field of batteries, solar energy, etc. Compared with other similar companies, our technology has great advantages at present, and you propose to cooperate with our company, I have to wonder what your real intention is!"

"Mr. Tang, it is precisely because of this that I thought of cooperating with your company. Our two companies can complement each other technically!"

Tang Xiaochuan shook his head after hearing this: "No, Mr. Mark, I don't think you are telling the truth. Our company is more advanced in the technology that Terra company currently has, and our company has the technology that your company does not currently have. I think you The purpose is not to join forces with our company, but to obtain our company's technology. In the field of new energy, our two companies are competitors, aren't they?"

"Besides, your company can build charging stations all over the country by itself. In fact, that's what you did. Why did you recruit our company? Isn't it to obtain our company's technology? So, I have to be serious about this matter. consider!"

Mark was very helpless. Tang Xiaochuan looked young, but he was very vigilant and not easy to fool around.

In fact, in order to gain a firm foothold, the branch company established by Terra Corporation in China has attracted several other automobile companies to take shares. However, these companies are not good at the field of new energy. Terra Corporation has taken a fancy to their sales channels and background. And production capacity other than energy power and charging technology equipment.

If Tang Xiaochuan wants to open the blueprint automobile branch company to Meiguo, he will also use the means of setting up a branch company of Terra Company in Huaguo to bring in several relatively powerful local automobile companies and battery manufacturing companies. There is no need to lay additional sales channels, and there are backers behind local companies to protect them, but Terra is obviously not a good partner.

Since we are unable to cooperate for the time being, Mark wants to settle for the next best thing, "Okay, but I hope you will think about it again! In addition, Terra Company wants to start a long-term cooperation with your company and purchase solid-state batteries from your company for a long time!"

Solid-state battery technology is currently a unique technology of Feitian Technology Co., Ltd., as well as related supporting charging technology. If the battery is sold to Terra, the cruising range of Terra's new energy vehicles will be greatly improved, and there are many charging problems. will no longer exist, which will greatly hinder and affect the development of Blueprint Automobile Manufacturing Company.

The reason why the blueprint car makes such a debut and is sought after by the majority of car enthusiasts is because of its battery range, the ability to maintain a continuous range of speed, and its charging time is greatly shortened and the accident rate is extremely low.

If these are no longer the unique advantages of the blueprint car, in terms of its driving experience, ride comfort and other aspects, it really has nothing special, and it will be very difficult to continue to develop and grow. The manufacturing process of the car is the shortcoming of the blueprint car, especially the car's shock absorption and suspension system, car body, car interior design and so on.

Thinking of this, Tang Xiaochuan shook his head and said: "I'm very sorry, Mr. Mark, at present we only signed a strategic partnership with Lantu Automobile Manufacturing Company, and the batteries and related parts and equipment are only supplied to their company for the time being. You may not know it yet. Blueprint Automobile Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Feitian Group, and it is impossible for our company to help competitors prevent our children from growing up!"

Mark left with regret, and the speed of Feitian Technology's development made him feel terrible and a strong sense of urgency.

He just tried to tell Tang Xiaochuan about his grand ideal of going into space, and tried to make Tang Xiaochuan feel admiration for him with his excellent speech and lobbying ability, and he was willing to contribute the technology of Feitian Technology Company and cooperate with him.

But Tang Xiaochuan is not a three-year-old child. It is his own business that Mark has ideals. He Tang Xiaochuan also has ideals, and he also hopes to develop space technology as soon as possible, but he cannot surrender to Mark.

"Mr. Tang, we have already grasped the amount of chips purchased by various companies. They all need five-nanometer and seven-nanometer chips, but the amount they need is too large. It is impossible to meet our company's current production capacity unless we reduce the number of domestic companies. supply!" Liu Zhiyuan reported to Tang Xiaochuan the next day.

After hearing this, Tang Xiaochuan shook his head and said: "At present, there are not many domestic and foreign companies that need to use high-end chips, that's all. If we rashly expand production capacity, once they pass this urgent demand period, our company will have serious problems. In the case of overcapacity, laying off workers, stopping equipment operation, and closing the factory will bring us great losses. We cannot do this. The market has always favored supply exceeding demand, so that products can be sold easily. Once supply exceeds demand, then It has become a pile of rotten cabbage and no one cares about it!"
