Super Scientist

Chapter 121 Transforming the Production Line

Ye Chen was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that he patted his forehead, really, he actually forgot about this.

The data displayed on the test equipment are all maximum values.

The testing equipment was imported from Sidney and used to test silicon photonic chips. Ye Chen's modification was mainly in the software, and the original bugs were eliminated, but the basic components were not improved, and the testing range was limited. It is a little bit reluctant to test photonic chips, let alone the chips used to test super optical brains, which are far beyond its capabilities.

There is no way to test it, which means that the super optical brain chip is very good, how good is it? Ye Chen is looking forward to it again,

Ye Chen doesn't know exactly how good it is, but Ye Chen knows it must be good. Among other things, there are billions of optical paths integrated on this five-square-centimeter chip. Does its performance need to be said?

The question of how good it is is that after the super optical brain is built, Ye Chen can write a software to test it, and now there is no way to know.

The chip is the core component of the super optical brain. Now that Ye Chen has made it, the rest of the work is much easier, but it still takes a lot of time. After all, the performance of the super optical brain is much stronger than that of ordinary optical brains, and it requires much more components, and it does not take much time.

The rest of the time, Ye Chen used to make other components.

Two days in a row passed, the progress went smoothly, there is no problem, as long as enough time is spent, the super optical brain will be created by Ye Chen. On this day, Ye Chen received a call from Mr. Zhuang, and the domestic chip manufacturer came. Ask him to deal with the transformation of the production line.

Only Ye Chen can do the transformation of the production line. Although he really wants to continue to make super optical brains, the production line can't be pulled down, so he has to suspend this matter and rush to the office. A man of many years is waiting for him.

"Mr. Ye, hello, I'm Fei Zixuan, the chairman of Ruike High-Tech Co., Ltd." Fei Zixuan stepped forward quickly, holding Ye Chen's hand, smiling all over his face. Very kind.

"Mr. Fei, hello, I'm Ye Chen. Let's sit down and talk." Ye Chen held Fei Zixuan's hand and smiled.

The four of them sat down, Zhong Lijun came in, brought tea to Ye Chen, and hot water for the old three of Zhuang, then went out and closed the door. This guy has now entered the role of secretary, doing things in an orderly manner.

"Mr. Fei, I'm a straightforward person, so I won't say those modest and useless words, let's talk about the business directly. I don't know if Mr. Fei understands our situation." Ye Chen went straight to the point.

"Somewhat understanding." Fei Zixuan said.

"That's good. Fei always knows that we want to produce photonic chips, and now we don't have special equipment, so we have to renovate the silicon photonics production line. Fei always does high-tech, so naturally he knows that high-tech requirements are very high." Strict, it can be said to be very harsh, I wonder if you can do it, Mr. Fei?" Ye Chen was a little worried about whether Rico was capable of completing the transformation.

This is not to look down on Rico, but the truth.

The high-tech requirements cannot be said to be strict, but harsh, and the requirements are so high that it is unimaginable. The production requirements of photonic chips are also very high, and the requirements for equipment are particularly high. Correspondingly, it cannot be completed without strong strength.

"Hehe." Fei Zixuan was not angry. As an expert, he knew that although Ye Chen's words were blunt, they were all truthful, and said, "Boss Ye can rest assured that if we can't do it, we won't do it in China." Someone might be able to do it."

His words were full of confidence, not like talking big, Ye Chen was a little surprised.

Elder Zhuang explained to Ye Chen, "Xiaoye, Rico is the only company in China that manufactures chip production equipment."

It turned out to be the only one, no wonder the tone was not small, Ye Chen suddenly realized.

"Tip, it's the founder of Rico Hi-Tech. He used to be the leader of our country's chip production equipment, and then he went into the sea.

Founded Ruike, specializing in the manufacture of chip production equipment, the equipment they produced has been exported overseas, even the chip giants are also using their equipment. "Zhuang Lao went on to introduce.

"So it's senior, I'm sorry." Fei Zixuan is an academic leader, this is a senior, a very powerful senior, and Ye Chen spontaneously respects him.

"Mr. Ye laughed. Mr. Ye solved the biggest shortcoming for the country. I admire Mr. Ye very much." Fei Zixuan said with a smile, "I've wanted to meet Mr. Ye for a long time, but today I finally met him. I'm really happy."

"Since Rui Ke has good strength, I can rest assured. Specifically, Mr. Fei should go to see the production line, and we can talk about it later, okay?" Ye Chen said.

No matter what you say now, it's useless, you still need to look at the production line in detail, and it's easy to talk about it. Ye Chen's words are very pertinent.

"Okay." Fei Zixuan readily agreed.

So, Ye Chen drove and took Fei Zixuan to Fengzhou Electronics Factory to show him the equipment.

Under the leadership of Ye Chen, Fei Zixuan carefully inspected the production line. He was a little surprised and said, "Hey, Sidney Company actually uses this thing."

Ye Chen asked, "What did Mr. Fei say?"

"It's the automatic control system, we made it." Fei Zixuan pointed to an automatic control system.

"What did you do?" Ye Chen was curious.

"Yes. We did this in the 1990s. At that time, our domestic production technology was far from as high as it is now. Most manufacturers did not understand what automation is. There was no market in China. We sold it to an American company." Fei Zixuan explained the reason.

"Although there are some minor problems with this system, overall it is very good. You must have sold it for a good price." Ye Chen has seen this control system, and it is very good overall. He thought it was made by a small RB, but he did not expect it. It turned out to be our country.

"There's no such thing as a good price, it's sold for hundreds of thousands of dollars." Fei Zixuan shook his head and smiled wryly.

"Hundreds of thousands of dollars? This system costs at least hundreds of millions of dollars. Is this the same as free gift?" Ye Chen's eyes almost fell out.

"Isn't it?" Fei Zixuan said helplessly, "At that time we didn't understand, we thought hundreds of thousands of dollars was a lot, but now that we think about it, we are all stupid."

Mr. Zhuang saw Ye Chen's regret and said, "Xiaoye, this is the pain of our people. At the beginning of the reform and opening up, the people of the country did not have the awareness of intellectual property rights and did not know how to apply for patents, and those black-hearted Foreigners take advantage of this to purchase these technologies from our country at an extremely low price, and then apply for patents, and finally, as the inventors of the technology, Chinese people have to pay patent fees to foreigners.”

"Grass! Foreign devils are really dark!" Ye Chen couldn't help grinding his teeth.

Fei Zixuan was a little embarrassed, and said: "As for me, I am one of those people who Mr. Zhuang said had no awareness of intellectual property rights. Later, I became aware of intellectual property rights and knew how to protect patents. Looking back, when I Really stupid, stupid."

He was just a representative. At that time, there were quite a few people like this.

"I still sold hundreds of thousands of dollars, and there are people who are more unlucky than me. I know a karaoke program writer who sold his program to a stick company. His psychological price at that time was 50,000 US dollars. , The stick was offered for $80,000, and he sold it happily. After several years, when he became aware of intellectual property rights, he realized that he had sold too much, and the program was worth at least $30 million." Fei Zixuan had a painful look on his face.

It's not that Ye Chen has never heard of this kind of thing, but Fei Zixuan, who has personally experienced it, has no weight in speaking out. Ye Chen gritted his teeth in hatred and said, "Bangzi is really dark!"

"Isn't it?" This is the pain in Fei Zixuan's heart, and it hurts when he mentions it.

"Foreigners are so dark-hearted, don't give me a chance. If I don't blackmail foreigners, I won't have my surname Ye." Ye Chen said bitterly.

After venting for a while, Ye Chen took Fei Zixuan to watch the production line.

"Little RB likes to brag. To be honest, this production line is not very good. The only thing worthy of praise is that little RB is ahead of the curve. It is admirable to have the courage to invest in researching the production line before a major breakthrough has been made." After reading it, Fei Zixuan gave a pertinent evaluation of the production line.

High technology is a money-burning machine. Similarly, the silicon photonics chip production line is also a money-burning machine. Sidney dared to invest huge sums of money in researching the production line when silicon photonics technology has not yet achieved a major breakthrough. This is very valuable.

"Mr. Fei, why don't you do it?" Ye Chen asked.

Fei Zixuan's comments on the production line were very pertinent, and Ye Chen knew that his technology should be very good.

"It's not that I don't want to do it, but that I can't afford the risk. Our company has only been established for more than ten years. Although we have achieved good performance, it is still incomparable with a behemoth like Sidney. For Sidney, ten or two billion dollars The loss is nothing, but for us, it is a big risk, if we fail, it may lead to our bankruptcy." Fei Zixuan said helplessly.

Our country’s reform and opening-up period is not long, but it has been more than 30 years, and many companies have not been established for a long time. This accumulation is far inferior to those foreign giants that have been established for decades, or even hundreds of years.

These foreign giants dare to invest billions of dollars, even if they fail, they can afford the loss. And our company may go bankrupt, so we have to weigh it carefully.

Ye Chen has a deep understanding of the limitation of funds. He has already mastered the optical brain technology, but because of the limitation of funds, he suffered a lot and was almost robbed of the patent.

"Mr. Fei has read it. Let's discuss the transformation." Ye Chen brought Fei Zixuan to the office of Fengzhou Electronics Factory, took out the transformation plan that he had prepared, and handed it to Fei Zixuan.

Fei Zixuan took it and looked at it seriously. It was not until nearly half an hour later that he raised his head and said, "Mr. Ye, I took a general look. We can do it, but the investment is a bit big."

"How much does it cost?" Ye Chen asked.

"I did a rough calculation, and it won't be less than 1.5 billion. The exact figure won't be known until the transformation is complete." Fei Zixuan said.

"1.5 billion?" Ye Chen was very surprised.

High-tech really deserves to be a money-burning machine. Just a transformation costs 1.5 billion. If it is a brand-new production line, how much will it cost?
