Building B.
Independent of Hanteng Capital, it is guarded by Dragon Flame and the National Security personnel, with strict 24-hour protection.
Even Xia Qingyan is not allowed to enter!
"President Chen!"
As Chen Hao entered, Academician Huang Lingyi of the chip research and development center on the 12th floor walked over excitedly: "We succeeded... We succeeded!"
"Elder Huang, you've worked hard!" Chen Hao was equally excited.
The lithography machine has been successfully developed.
At the same time.
Related technologies such as photoresist, etching, and ion implantation were completed even earlier.
After all, among a series of related technologies, the lithography machine is the most difficult.
The lithography machine factory is under construction!
Production has already begun.
But!
It's still not enough.
To manufacture chips, there is still a core technology—chip design!
Initially, Chen Hao personally invited Elder Huang to come out of retirement precisely for this crucial link.
Finally.
Success!
"Let's go!"
Elder Huang pulled Chen Hao, her face full of excitement: "Let's go test it! Didn't you say the lithography machine was also successfully developed?"
This is her final step!
"Wait!"
Chen Hao's one hand was grabbed by Elder Huang.
He extended his other hand and placed it on Elder Huang's wrist.
"What are you doing...?" Elder Huang was surprised.
"Taking your pulse."
Chen Hao smiled slightly.
After a moment, he nodded and said: "Your cervical spondylosis hasn't worsened compared to before. It's a good time to take a good rest during the upcoming period."
The excitement on Elder Huang's face disappeared.
Astonishment.
Followed by…
Gratitude!
She never expected that Chen Hao, upon hearing the news of success, would first consider her health.
"Elder Huang, please wait a moment."
Conference room.
Xia Qingyan and Liu Qiangdong were chatting idly.
The agreement content had been discussed, and they were waiting for Ren Xue to prepare the contract.
"Director Li!"
Suddenly!
Chen Hao rushed in like a whirlwind: "How much cash does the company have?"
"Fifty to sixty million, I guess." Li Ju didn't remember clearly.
"Forget it!"
Chen Hao waved his hand: "Give me a 100 million check."
"What for?" Li Ju was at a loss.
"To issue bonuses."
"Oh…"
Damn!
Liu Qiangdong almost went crazy on the spot.
Taking 100 million to issue bonuses?
Facing Hanteng Capital, such a heaven-defying behemoth, he sincerely felt that he was very poor, dirt poor.
Li Ju immediately went to write the check.
Chen Hao followed.
"Wait a moment!"
Xia Qingyan chased after him: "Director Chen, I have something to tell you!"
She had something to tell Chen Hao earlier.
Seeing him rushing around, she knew that he would be very busy next, and once he went to Building B, phone calls wouldn't go through.
She had to say it now!
She pulled Chen Hao to a corner outside the conference room.
"What's wrong?" Chen Hao asked busily.
"We're running out of chips."
Xia Qingyan's expression was grave: "SP4, TVs, cars, etc., we hoarded these chips a long time ago, which can temporarily last for a while—but the computer chips are almost used up!"
They hadn't hoarded laptop chips for long before the North American side issued the ban.
The inventory isn't much.
The key is!
SP4 and other products have already been auctioned off, so it doesn't matter even if production capacity is reduced.
Laptop computers are owned and sold by us.
Running out of stock would be bad!
"We'll have them soon." Chen Hao smiled.
"What do you mean?"
"Let's go!"
Chen Hao thought for a moment, his sister-in-law had been drafted into the army, there was no need to hide some things: "Come with me!"
On the other side.
Liu Qiangdong stared blankly at the conference room.
Ren Xue went to draft the contract.
Li Ju went to write Chen Hao a check.
Xia Qingyan also left.
Hanteng Capital's executives all left, leaving only him in the conference room.
…
Building B, 12th floor.
After the major scientific research projects moved into this building, Xia Qingyan hadn't been back.
Surprisingly!
The chip design team led by Elder Huang was gathered together, immersed in excitement.
"Everyone!"
Chen Hao returned and looked at everyone: "This time, Elder Huang deserves the greatest credit! Of course, everyone involved in the research and development has indelible merit, I…"
"President Chen, you're wrong!"
Elder Huang stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "You deserve the greatest credit!"
"Without the technology you provided, even if you gave me another two or three years, I wouldn't necessarily be able to complete it!"
How easy is chip design?
Chen Hao provided the technical roadmap.
He provided the core architecture.
He provided a series of the most important technical guidance.
Without him, Elder Huang would have to feel her way across the river by touching the stones, and it would take an unknown amount of time.
Xia Qingyan was at a loss.
She only knew that the team had developed something, which seemed particularly remarkable.
But…
She didn't know exactly what it was.
She didn't want to ask too much on this occasion.
"That's right! President Chen, you deserve the greatest credit!"
"Without your guidance, no matter how hard we worked, we wouldn't have a direction!"
"Well, then…"
Seeing everyone speaking in unison, Chen Hao scratched his head awkwardly: "But I can't very well reward myself, can I?"
Reward?
Everyone was stunned.
Isn't this a national project?
How can President Chen issue rewards privately?
"100 million check."
Give cash?
There really isn't that much!
Chen Hao raised the check high: "The entire team gets a share!"
What? !
Everyone was stunned.
Bonus…
One hundred million?!
"Director Hu."
Chen Hao stuffed the check into Hu Wei's hands: "You divide the money, Elder Huang and I have something to do."
Hu Wei is the deputy chief engineer.
He was the one who went with Chen Hao to invite Elder Huang in the first place.
"No…"
Hu Wei realized something and unhesitatingly stuffed the check into the hands of a senior executive next to him: "I want to go too! I know what you're going to do, you can't leave me behind, can you? No matter what… we're together!"
"Alright, let's go together." Chen Hao smiled.
…
Leaving Hanteng Capital's Building B.
The security department sent two cars, Chen Hao and Elder Huang sat in one.
"Elder Huang, next you should rest first…"
"No!"
Before he could finish speaking, Elder Huang shook her head: "We must prepare for a rainy day, design more advanced chips, and then…"
"But I don't have time to give you new chip design ideas." Chen Hao smiled wryly.
"Ah?!"
Elder Huang was stunned at first, then said: "President Chen, chips are really too important for the country. Can you spare some time to work on the next generation of chips… This is really important!"
"Elder Huang, what I'm doing now is also important, I really don't have time at the moment."
"What you're doing now is…"
"…"
Chen Hao shook his head and didn't say anything.
That was top secret!
Even if the driver came from the security department, he would definitely not say it.
He took out his phone, opened the text message function, and entered a line of text.
Instantly!
Seeing that line of text, Elder Huang showed an unbelievable expression.
After being stunned for half a minute, she nodded hastily: "Okay! I'll rest during this period to prepare for the next phase of work!"
Surprisingly!
That line of text was…
Domestic nuclear-powered aircraft carrier research and development!
…
Xia Qingyan was extremely anxious all the way down.
First, on the 12th floor of Building B, with so many scientific research workers present, it wasn't convenient for her to ask Chen Hao.
Next.
Chen Hao and Elder Huang sat in one car, clearly there were some things they wanted to discuss.
She didn't have a chance to ask again.
Until they got out of the car…
"Chen Hao, what are you researching?" She grabbed her brother-in-law and asked in a low voice.
"You'll know soon." Chen Hao smiled.
"You…"
"President Chen!"
Du Yang, Gu Jinglun, and Xie Wu greeted them.
