Chapter 128 Waiting for good news
Since Kang Chi’s account has not been officially certified and the number of fans is currently 0, no one has seen this Weibo when it was first posted.
However, after the official certification was passed, Kang Chi’s account was directly given a series of titles by Weibo staff: The first person in Chinese science, the father of Chinese silicon wafers, and the chairman of Daqin Optics.
While completing the certification, he was also pushed to the first wave of users, and soon there was a certain response.
”Fuck, Dr. Kang actually played Weibo?”
”What does this Weibo mean? What’s the fun of it? Tell me!”
”What’s so fun? Daqin Optics is almost being demoted to a defense by trolls, and Dr. Kang doesn’t come out to say a few words?”
”…”
As more and more comments were made under this Weibo, Kang Chi’s number of fans quickly increased from zero to more than a thousand.
At this time, Kang Chi had brought the R&D team of Daqin Optics to the Dahan Silicon Industry R&D Center in Pingjiang, and re-entered the commercial mass production of oil extractors and the R&D of EUV lithography machines.
Until he had been drawing for more than ten hours in a row and was too sleepy to turn on his mobile phone before going to bed, he suddenly found that his Weibo had already started to have fans and comments.
Moreover,
What are these officially certified titles?
Father of Silicon Wafer?
This seems to be barely acceptable, but the first civilian scientist…
When did he get this title? Kang Chi has seen the ability of Weibo staff to hype topics and brag…
After a quick browse of the comments, Kang Chi soon found a hint of unusual flavor in the comment area.
Daqin Optics was demoted to a defense by trolls? What’s going on? As Kang Chi searched further, he found that in addition to the price reduction offensive, Suoni and his team also used their usual propaganda method.
They kept letting the Internet users and media promote the reliable quality and quality assurance of the island country’s products on the Internet, saying that their lenses can be used for many years.
They also attacked Daqin Optics’ free replacement and exchange policy, saying that their products had a service life of less than one year and had to be replaced.
As for the Internet users of Jia Neng and Ni Kang, they directly said: Jia Neng and Ni Kang can make lithography machines. Can Daqin Optics compare with this technical foundation?
The two sides also launched a heated war of words on this.
Although there is no result until now, Daqin Optics’ fans also know that most of Suoni fans are Internet users, but they are still very angry. After discovering that Kang Chi appeared on the mass social platform, they naturally couldn’t help but come over to complain a few words, trying to ask Master Kang to help them get back on their feet.
However, Kang Chi did not comment on this. He just randomly picked a few comments, replied briefly and went to sleep directly…
It is redundant to say anything now. It is better to be patient and hold back a big surprise for Suoni and users. —— Changchun Institute of Optics.
The R&D personnel of the EUV light source project finally waited for the verification results of Lao Liao’s magnetic field simulation after a long and agonizing wait.
”Verification passed!”
Lao Liao, who was still in Tianjin Supercomputing Center, excitedly called He Yong as soon as the results came out.
“The design of this magnetic field is perfect. The tin liquid debris in the simulation calculations all follow the set magnetic field route and enter the waste collector without any leakage.”
”And the several magnetic fields he added to other parts of the equipment also perfectly offset the magnetic influence of this system!”
”I will bring back the relevant simulation data later… Professor He, I think this improvement plan is very feasible and can start actual improvement!”
Although He Yong has never believed that Kang Chi’s improvement plan can really work, he still has some expectations. After listening to Lao Liao’s report, his heartbeat suddenly started to beat wildly. Unexpectedly, it can actually pass the simulation verification!
Only ten days! He Yong really can’t figure out how Kang Chi did all this.
Although this theory seems simple and the accuracy is not as strict as that of the stellarator, it is only relatively simple for world-class problems such as stellarators.
In fact, the requirements for magnetic field design capabilities are not simple at all., any deviation of 0.1 micron in angle or distance of a magnetic ring may cause the whole system to have flaws, thus requiring a redesign.
Then it will be like a programmer fixing a bug. After fixing it here, a bigger bug appears there. In the end, it is like a leaky boat. The speed of plugging the hole cannot even keep up with the speed of the leak…
And every subtle adjustment requires re-running the supercomputer simulation, which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also a crazy burning of R&D funds.
This is why He Yong has never really considered developing in this direction, although he has thought about magnetic field constraints before.
Because it is too difficult.
But Kang Chi not only directly gave a solution that can be used directly, but also spent only ten days from digesting the drawings to tailor-made magnetic field design!
He Yong even suspected that he had not even done simulation verification, and just threw it to them!
Is he so confident?
He Yong pondered for a long time, and finally only thought of one possibility…
That is, Kang Chi has a magnetic field calculation model with very small errors, which can accurately calculate all the design data by inputting parameters!
I just don’t know whether the accuracy of this model can meet the standards of stellarators…
Although he was curious, He Yong still resisted the urge to call Kang Chi to ask about the accuracy of this calculation model.
After all, it was his personal research result, and there was no reason to tell him.
In the end, he just edited a text message and sent it to Kang Chi: ”Now officially start the improvement work, call you when it’s ready.”
Kang Chi, who received the text message, couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief and replied: “How long will it take?”
He Yong: “Don’t worry, I won’t deliberately delay time, at most one month.”
Kang Chi: “Wait for good news.” – For more than half a month, Kang Chi stayed at home, lived and ate at the Pingjiang Branch of Dahan Silicon Industry, and pushed forward the development progress of oil extractors and lithography machines in an orderly manner.
Until November, Chen Hai suddenly reported a piece of news to him.
Academician Wu was admitted to the hospital! Kang Chi still respected and appreciated this old man who had been silently supporting him behind the scenes, so he couldn’t sit still when he heard the news.
”What’s going on?” Kang Chi looked at Chen Hai nervously, “Is the situation serious?”
”Don’t be nervous, it shouldn’t be serious.” Chen Hai sighed, “I heard that it was because the Ministry of Science and Technology announced the semiconductor research and development plan for next year and cut the research and development funds for photoresist.”
”Su Province Microelectronics Research Institute was cut by 1 billion yuan, and many projects were forced to shut down. Academician Wu went to the Ministry of Science and Technology to argue but to no avail, and he fell ill when he came back. I guess he was still angry…”
Kang Chi listened and said with some dissatisfaction: “Just because of 1 billion yuan, the academician was angry? The Ministry of Science and Technology is not doing a good job in this matter… ”
”Shh——” Chen Hai interrupted Kang Chi, “You can’t say that. After all, no one knew in advance that Academician Wu would be so upset…”
”The annual scientific research funding is adjusted at any time according to the importance of the matter. Now that photoresist is so cheap, it is normal to cut funding. You can’t make an exception to allocate funds just to take care of personal emotions, right?”
Although he knew that what Chen Hai said made sense, Kang Chi still felt a little unhappy when it came to his acquaintances, so he said directly: “It’s just 1 billion yuan. Can’t I cooperate with the university-enterprise cooperation of Su Province?”
