Rebirth in 1989: Building a Chinese Technological Empire

"Mr. Xu, are you telling the truth? Did you lie to us?"

Finally, someone couldn't help shouting out from below, and this shout made everyone look at Xu Huasheng.

"Why should I lie to you? What good does it do me to lie to you? What kind of place is this? I lied to you in front of President Zhou, am I tired of living?"

Xu Huasheng's series of questions made everyone stunned, and then they laughed.

Yes, what is this place? Huake Academy, this is the highest research institution in China. If Xu Huasheng didn't have the ability, would President Zhou come to support him?

At this moment, everyone got excited.

"Old Liu, with your ability, you must be a first-level researcher..."

"Mr. Sun must be the project leader..."

"My goodness, this year's income is tens of thousands. If you have tens of thousands of yuan, can you buy a house..."

"What kind of project is this? Do they have so much money?"

"The country has no money, where do they get the money..."

The people below started to discuss again, and looking at everyone's discussion, President Zhou laughed.

"Ahem, let me say something. Money, this little guy really has it. Huaguang Optoelectronics now has 500 million RMB in working capital alone..."

President Zhou said directly, and everyone's eyes widened when he said this.

Wow, 500 million RMB in working capital, this is a huge sum of money.

500 million RMB in 1989 was really a huge sum of money. You have to know that in this era, the average annual salary of Yanjing people was only 2,100 yuan.

And in 2022, the average monthly salary in Yanjing is 10,628.

This salary level is 60 times different.

If this is calculated, 500 million RMB in 1989 is equivalent to 30 billion RMB in 2022.

However, in terms of purchasing power, it cannot be calculated this way. After all, advanced equipment is very expensive in this era.

"Everyone, let me announce our next project now. Our biggest project is the new generation of lithography machines. The entire lithography machine is divided into several project groups. Optical group, precision processing group, automatic alignment group..."

A blackboard was pulled over in the auditorium, and Xu Huasheng began to explain the next task.

The lithography machine alone is divided into twelve project groups, each group is responsible for the technical research of a module.

In addition, there are photoresists, etching machines...

The entire industrial chain is divided into 19 key projects in total.

Each project is difficult, either blank or the technical gap is too large.

Everyone became serious. At this moment, they realized that this money is not easy to get. This is a tough battle.

"Everyone, I know that each project is difficult. But you are the most powerful people in China, and I believe in your ability. In order to further encourage everyone, the company has set a bonus of 1 million RMB for each project. As long as you complete the research of the entire project within one year, your project team can share the bonus equally. If it exceeds one year, the bonus will be deducted by 10,000 for each day exceeding..."

Increase the stakes, increase the stakes again.

At this moment, the whole hall could only hear the sound of people swallowing their saliva.

A big reward will bring courage. Xu Huasheng believed that with the stimulation of money, these people would work harder.

"Okay, everyone can discuss with each other. Then see which group you are suitable to join, and at the same time, you can democratically elect a project leader. The selection of the project leader is directly related to whether you can get the bonus, so please be careful in the election. At the same time, if you think you still need to pull in some powerful talents, then contact them. As long as they have real skills, even if they are not from our Huake Institute, the company will allow them to join the project team. And everyone can see what equipment is needed and make a list. We will try to purchase it..."

Xu Huasheng's words made the whole auditorium lively.

Everyone began to find a suitable group according to their own abilities, and then recommend a suitable project leader. They are all people in the circle, and everyone knows who is capable.

And Jiang Hanwen undoubtedly became the person in charge of the optical system, and no one competed with him for this position.

Huake Institute became lively, and 19 projects were quickly established.

After the project team was established, the person in charge and the team members began to recruit people. After all, the salary is not paid by themselves. As a member of Huazhong University of Science and Technology, who doesn't have a few capable friends around him?

This is a fortune, and you should bring your friends along if you can.

Xu Huasheng didn't say anything, nor did he complain about the large number of people.

What a great opportunity, these are all talents. With this cooperation, it will be easier to recruit people in the future. For a company, it is definitely a great opportunity to recruit some people from Huazhong University of Science and Technology.Very cool. These people, if you dig them up, you will make a lot of money, and even any of them can be the project leader.

"Little guy, are you giving too much?"

Dean Zhou came to Xu Huasheng at some point and looked at Xu Huasheng and couldn't help saying.

"Dean Zhou, we can't let our people shed blood, sweat and tears. Some people outside say that those who make atomic bombs are not as good as those who sell tea eggs. After studying hard for so many years, if your income is not as good as that of a tea egg seller, how heartbreaking it is. They are all talents. If you don't give them, someone else will. We can't let the talents we have worked so hard to cultivate go abroad."

Xu Huasheng couldn't help saying that the reason why Xu Li gave such a high salary was that he wanted to help these people so that they could stay in China as much as possible. Hearing this, Dean Zhou sighed, and his eyes were full of appreciation when he looked at Xu Huasheng.

It took only three days for all 19 project teams to be determined.

Their work locations are not in the same place. There are many research institutes under the Huazhong University of Science and Technology, and each institute has different focuses. These people need to go to the corresponding research institutes to carry out technical research according to the projects they have received.

After all the technical research is completed, the lithography machine will be finally built to create a complete chip industry chain in China.

"Everyone, these are some technical materials compiled by our company. I hope these technical materials can help your project..."

In the conference room, Xu Huasheng brought in a pile of documents.

Xu Huasheng distributed these documents according to the project groups. These are some technical materials compiled by Xu Huasheng, but these technical materials did not give detailed specific data, only the research direction.

Xu Huasheng certainly has detailed data, but Xu Huasheng hopes that these materials can play a driving role, rather than letting them directly reproduce these technical materials.

The reason for not giving specific data is that the data is too sensitive and Xu Huasheng does not know how to explain it.

Second, Xu Huasheng hopes that these people will improve themselves in the process of research. Understanding the principles is like a math problem. It is better to give the solution than the answer directly.

Although this will be slower, it can allow these technicians to improve their abilities again. Besides, the photolithography machine is not too urgent now, and everything can be done slowly.

After everyone got the document, they read it carefully, and everyone's expression became serious.

Including Jiang Hanwen, there is a lot of information on it. Although there is no specific data, it gives a specific direction, which makes it much easier.

The most feared thing in scientific research is to go in the wrong direction. Now that there is a specific direction, what the result is is nothing more than a few more experiments.

After reading all the information, everyone looked at Xu Huasheng with surprise in their eyes. They knew very well how precious these materials were. These materials were absolutely confidential and would be strictly kept confidential by various companies and countries.

"Well, these are all collected by our company through special channels. I hope it can be helpful to everyone. The next thing can only be left to you..."

Xu Huasheng said with a smile. Although Xu Huasheng was also a researcher in his previous life and liked to hang out in the laboratory, he knew that he could not do research with them now, and he had more important things to do.
