Chapter 79 Let’s Be Honest
With Kang Chi’s current achievements, it is obvious that he is not yet at the level of being equipped with a military helicopter, so the topic was quickly stopped.
When they arrived in Yanjing, the sky had begun to darken. Kang Chi thought that the meeting time would be tomorrow, but he did not expect Chen Hai to take him directly to the Ministry of Science and Technology.
After entering the reception room, Kang Chi unexpectedly found that there was an acquaintance inside.
“Mr. Dong?”
Seeing the vice president of Shencheng Silicon Industry Group whom he had just met a few days ago, Kang Chi was surprised and asked, “Why are you here too? I wanted to call you this afternoon.”
Dong Jianyuan also stood up and nodded to Kang Chi with a smile, “Why, do you have anything to talk to me about?”
”Well… let’s talk about this later.”
”Are you all here?”
Dong Jianyuan wanted to ask more, but a loud voice came from outside, so he and Kang Chi turned their heads to look.
An old man in a Zhongshan suit walked in with a smile and nodded to the two of them.
”Hello, Chief.”
Although Kang Chi had never seen him, he knew without guessing that this was Chief Lu of the Ministry of Science and Technology, so he and Dong Jianyuan straightened their backs and greeted him.
“Well, I called you here at short notice. You must have had a hard time along the way, right?”
”No, it’s not hard.”
Kang Chi and Dong Jianyuan both shook their heads.
”Well, let’s sit down and talk first.”
”Okay.”
After Chief Lu’s secretary went out and closed the door, only the three of them were left in the reception room.
Chief Lu first set his sights on Kang Chi’s face. Looking at this face that looked a little too young, he couldn’t help but sigh: “It’s true that heroes emerge from youth… Although I’ve seen him on TV, I still can’t help but sigh when I see him in person.”
”You’re too kind, Chief.”
”No, you deserve this.” Chief Lu smiled and shook his head, then turned to look at Dong Jianyuan, “I’ve actually guessed what Dr. Kang wanted to say to you just now… This afternoon, Yan Hui went to Dahan Silicon Industry.”
”! !?”
Dong Jianyuan immediately realized something and turned to look at Kang Chi.
Kang Chi nodded: “Yes, he wants to join our Dahan Silicon Industry. I just want to ask you for a favor and release his non-compete agreement…”
“…”
Dong Jianyuan was silent for a long time before turning back to ask Chief Lu: “Do you mean the same thing?”
”I respect your choice, but… a forced melon is not sweet.”
”Since Dr. Yan’s heart is no longer with you, I think it is also a choice to let him go appropriately.”
”Although Dr. Yan has not made any particularly great achievements in recent years, he is also a great talent. If he is stuck between you, it is a bit of a waste.”
After listening to this, Dong Jianyuan felt a little entangled.
If Yan Hui is let go, it will undoubtedly be a huge loss for Silicon Information, especially since he is going to Dahan Silicon Industry,
The first person in silicon wafer manufacturing and research and development,
A demon-level genius who has just built a floating belt method single crystal furnace.
With these two people joining forces, what will happen to Silicon Trust in the future?
But if they don’t let him go, one is indeed a little selfish and will be known as someone who doesn’t care about the overall situation. One is that Yan Hui is obviously determined to leave, and even if he can’t go to Dahan Silicon, he may not return to Silicon Trust Technology…
Chief Lu also knew Dong Jianyuan’s entanglement, so he added: “If you feel embarrassed, you can actually let Dahan Silicon compensate you…”
”But I think this issue can be discussed at the end, maybe it can be solved easily.”
Knowing that Chief Lu was finally going to talk about business, Kang Chi and Dong Jianyuan put aside the previous topic and pricked up their ears to wait for the next word.
“I asked you to come here because I have something to ask you…”
“Silicon Technology is the leading domestic silicon wafer manufacturer, and Dahan Silicon Industry has just developed a floating belt single crystal furnace. If anyone can help the country through this silicon wafer crisis, I think it must be you.”
“Can you tell me from the bottom of your heart, do you have the confidence to go through the entire silicon wafer manufacturing process? If so, how long will it take?”
After speaking, Chief Lu first set his sights on Dong Jianyuan.
However, facing Chief Lu’s question, Dong Jianyuan remained silent.If Silicon Technology had Yan Hui, he might have dared to say that it could be done within two years. However, since Yan Hui was disillusioned with Silicon Technology and had made it clear that he wanted to go to Dahan Silicon Industry, he did not dare to make such a promise. Seeing Dong Jianyuan remained silent, Chief Lu’s expression did not change significantly. However, Dong Jianyuan also knew that he must be very disappointed with them now. Chief Lu then turned his attention directly to Kang Chi. Kang Chi quickly sat up and said, “In fact, what is blocking us now is the chemical mechanical polishing equipment.”
”As long as this key step is opened up, the chamfering machine of Jingfang Technology can be used for the previous chamfering, and the multi-wire cutting machine of Fenghuo Photovoltaic can be used for cutting. There are also corresponding domestic substitutes for polishing liquid and polishing pads…”
”In this way, the entire process of silicon wafer manufacturing is basically opened up, but the yield may be relatively low.”
After listening to Kang Chi’s analysis, Chief Lu couldn’t help but feel a glimmer of hope: “Do you have the confidence to get the chemical mechanical polishing equipment?”
Kang Chi nodded: “It will take me about 9 months.”
Here, Chief Lu was relieved.
Dong Jianyuan looked at Kang Chi in disbelief: “Are you sure? This kind of thing is not a joke.”
”Don’t worry, I know the seriousness of the matter.” Kang Chi said with a serious expression, “It’s mainly because our second phase of the project will take at least 5 months to complete, and it will take time to build a clean room… Otherwise, I can shorten the time to 3 months.”
”3 months?”
Now, even Chief Lu was a little unconvinced.
”I can make a single crystal furnace in more than two months, why can’t I make a polishing equipment in three months?”
”In addition, we can only complete the first production line in 9 months. Its monthly production capacity may be only about 100,000 pieces in the early stage. Considering the problem of product yield, it may be even lower, which can only slightly ease the situation.”
”And to truly solve the monthly gap of 1.9 million imported silicon wafers, it is estimated that it will take more time…”
Kang Chi’s words made Chief Lu have a clearer understanding of the difficulty of this battle,
But at the same time, he also saw a glimmer of hope for victory.
“Yes, I feel relieved that you have this confidence and courage.”
Lü praised Kang Chi, then sighed and said, “In fact, I asked you to come here this time, not only to let you tell me the truth, but also to promote the purpose of your cooperation in research and development…”
This idea coincided with Dong Jianyuan’s, and just when Dong Jianyuan wanted to speak, Lü continued:
“But based on the current situation, I have a bolder idea.”
