There was a question mark on Zhou Qichen's head.

How's Principal Qin's project going?

If he hadn't known that Qin Xiao's research on lithography machines had already produced some results, and even 5nm lithography machines had been developed, Lao Cui might have wanted to laugh when he asked this question.

As Lao Cui just said, how can a scientific research project make great progress or even produce results so easily?

If it were that easy, it wouldn't be considered a scientific research project.

However, before Zhou Qichen could speak, Lao Cui raised his hand and patted his head with a look of realization:"Look at me, look at me, I almost forgot, Principal Qin's project has only been going on for two months, and it's still... A five-star top-secret scientific research project may not even make any progress in three to five years."

"When I didn't ask, when I didn't ask."

Old Cui looked apologetic and a little embarrassed at the same time.

In this case, asking this would not only offend people, but also make him appear to be a layman.

But in fact, is he a layman?

The earliest one from Dongshen University He is an old professor who entered the Eastern Academy of Sciences in the first batch, and he took the lead in completing many scientific research projects. Such a person is not an outsider.

However, he just asked casually, and he didn’t have any bad intentions.

The main reason is that Qin Qin last time Xiao's speech in the open class was the first time he understood Qin Xiao in a real sense.

The article about Dongshen really shocked him.

When Qin Xiao was mentioned, he naturally thought of what Qin Xiao was developing. That project.

Lithography machine!

This was only something Zhou Qichen was willing to reveal after he signed a confidentiality agreement. But even so, he still hasn't been able to go to that laboratory to take a look at the specific conditions in the past two months.

However, Lao Cui also knew very well whether to go or not.

The lithography machine was a pain in the hearts of the Eastern Gods Alliance!

Today’s Eastern Gods Alliance is not what it used to be.

If we put it a few decades ago, the Eastern Gods Alliance at that time In addition to having a large number of people, the Alliance wants almost nothing. High-end scientific research talents can be counted on one hand. At that time, technology was not developed, and many things could only be bought, and they could only bow their heads in front of other forces. , we can only accept humiliation, hide our capabilities and bide our time...

At that time, we simply couldn’t afford to offend others.

But it’s different now. As one of the four major powers, Dongshen’s current technological level may not be the highest, but looking at the world , at least it can be ranked in the top five.

However, even at this level of technology, there are so many scientific researchers, but the lithography machine is still at an extremely backward level.

So far, even the 7nm process lithography machine has to You have to buy it from other forces.

And lithography machines that are better than 7nm technology cannot be bought with money.

Sometimes, you even need to pay a huge price.

To put it bluntly, the price of one If the Dongshen Alliance wants to buy a 100 million lithography machine, the price paid is less than 1 billion, so don’t even think about it.

As for Beihe now developing the most advanced EUV lithography machine, even if it is given to others 10 billion , people may not necessarily be able to sell it.

This kind of thing was normal in the past.

After all, I really didn’t have the strength.

But now, I have the strength, but I am still lagging behind in terms of lithography machines. This is the pain in the hearts of many scientific researchers.

Even if Lao Cui is not in this area of ​​research, when he mentioned the lithography machine, he still shook his head in his heart.

For decades, countless seniors from the Eastern Academy of Sciences have worked hard, but still failed to do it. How could it be possible to succeed in a short period of time?

What I just asked was a few words in front of Zhou Qichen. If it were anyone else, I'm afraid he would have thought he had intentions.

Seeing Lao Cui's nervous face, Zhou Qichen didn't know what he was thinking, so he smiled and said:"It's okay, I know, but when it comes to the progress of Principal Qin's photolithography machine project, to be honest, there has been some progress, but he himself is not very satisfied. No, I have been working hard during this period.."

Speaking of this, Zhou Qichen shook his head slightly in his heart.

Lao Cui didn't know the current situation at Qin Xiao's side, so why didn't he know?

That person has already developed a 5nm process lithography machine.

Although it is based on the original 7nm lithography machine, we also know that even so, it is still a miracle for Dongshen, which cannot even develop a 7nm lithography machine. Still a miracle that cannot be replicated.

You know, Qin Xiao developed a 5nm process lithography machine in less than three weeks, or even less.

Only Qin Xiao could do such a thing, and no one else would dare to think so in their wildest dreams.

This is not as simple as making some progress.

I didn’t tell Lao Cui, but I only knew in my heart that even Lao Cui wouldn’t believe it.

To say that there has been some progress would probably shock Lao Cui.

Sure enough, when Lao Cui heard that there was some progress, he couldn't help but open his mouth, with a look of disbelief on his face. Fortunately, Zhou Qichen later said that Qin Xiao was not satisfied and was still immersed in research, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

"How difficult is it to develop a photolithography machine in a short time? Some progress is pretty good. Although the results are not satisfactory, I believe that with President Qin’s ability, we should be able to develop our own 7nm lithography machine in three to five years."

Lao Cui sighed with emotion.

Zhou Qichen smiled bitterly in his heart.

7nm lithography machine?

They have even developed 5nm lithography machine. They are not satisfied. That is because they want to study the most cutting-edge and cutting-edge technology. 1nm technology’s EUV engraving machine. It

’s still three to five years ago, and two or three weeks are enough.

In three to five years, it will take that long to develop 1nm technology’s lithography machine.

But in this matter, Zhou Qichen Didn’t mention it. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

If he did, he suspected that Lao Cui wanted to question whether he was crazy.

"Well, it does take some time."

Zhou Qichen responded perfunctorily.

This attitude obviously made Lao Cui a little bit unbearable. He quickly said:"Old Zhou, why do I see you like this? Do you think what I said is wrong?"

"That's a lithography machine, not something else. You know how weak we are in lithography machines. Three to five years is still short. This is what Mr. Wei mentioned before. In the next two years, we will develop our own 7nm technology. Lithography machine, otherwise, I suspect it will take at least five years."[]

"If you want to talk about other scientific research projects, I think President Qin can see results and progress in a short time. But with the lithography machine, do you think it is possible in a short time?"

Zhou Qichen didn't expect that Lao Cui's reaction would be so big. He smiled bitterly:"You're right, I didn't say what you said was wrong! Why are you having such a big reaction?"

But having said that, Zhou Qichen complained in his heart.

If it weren't for the fear that Lao Cui would be hit, he would have wanted to tell him that Qin Xiao had developed a 5nm lithography machine and was now tinkering with 1nm lithography. However, after thinking about it, I finally gave it up.

To be honest, the excitement would be too great.

Compared with Lao Cui’s project, it is not on the same level as the photolithography machine. It is not as good as others. Huge results have been achieved in three weeks. Lao Cui has not made even a small progress so far. Anyone who hears this would probably be ashamed.

"Just know it."

Old Cui said angrily.

Zhou Qichen shook his head with a smile and said nothing. At this time, he didn't want to irritate Old Cui anymore.

As for Lao Cui, he had finished what he came here to do. After thinking about it, he said:"Okay, I won't nag you anymore. I'm leaving now. Come and sit in my laboratory when you have time. After Principal Qin came, you old guy didn't even come to my lab anymore. People's hearts are not as old as they used to be.!"

Old Cui sighed, held his reading glasses that had fallen off slightly, and turned to leave.

Zhou Qichen, on the other hand, shook his head helplessly and didn't care about this.

It was just a joke.

However, when Lao Cui mentioned this, he just When he realized it, he had indeed not been to Lao Cui's place during this period.

Thinking of this, looking at Lao Cui's back, Zhou Qichen quickly said:"｀～Tomorrow, I will go there tomorrow"

"OK. Lao Cui , who had not yet gone out, turned his head and nodded, but the next moment, he said angrily:"Can't it be now?" If you go, you can give some encouragement to us people. With this little blood, we might have a clue in the next few days.

Zhou Qichen stabbed him directly:"I plan to go to Principal Qin soon!""

With one sentence, Lao Cui, who had just revealed his little face, immediately blew his beard and stared, turned around and opened the door to leave.

On the other side,

Qin Xiaoxi's researcher Lin Haiyuan brought over the test data.

At present, the EUV Judging from the operating data of the machine, this modified 1nm Yili lithography machine runs relatively smoothly and has no flaws when manufacturing chips. There may be some minor problems, but just fine-tuning them will be fine.

Even As a result, not only do all of them meet the standards, but in some aspects, they are even better than Beihe's EUV engraving machine.

This is something Qin Xiao did not expect.

After all, it is his first time to come into contact with a photolithography machine. At this point, it was already a miracle, even better than Beihe's. If word spread, I'm afraid everyone would think he was crazy.

As for transformation or something, Qin Xiao didn't bother (Zhao Hao) anymore.

People's energy is limited. , in his words, just solve the most difficult part, and leave the rest to the right people.

"When the test is over, the laboratory here will be ready to move out, so you have to say hello to Lao Zhou in advance."

Qin Xiao murmured.

Although as the vice president of the Eastern Academy of Sciences, he could just inform the Eastern Academy of Sciences about this kind of matter before, but it is Zhou Qichen's territory after all. Zhou Qichen is also a member of the Eastern Academy of Sciences at home, so he asked Zhou Qichen to help handle it. It's more convenient.

As for the confidentiality issue, Zhou Qichen is also an old man, so he doesn't need to worry about this.

Thinking of this, Qin Xiao also took out his mobile phone and dialed Zhou Qichen's number directly.

On the other side, he just opened the door and was about to step out. Lao Cui suddenly heard a rapid ringtone not far behind him. He was stunned for a moment, turned around, and took a curious look.

At this time, Zhou Qichen put the phone to his ear Side, shouted:"Principal Qin!"

"Lao Zhou, I'm looking for you this time. I've got a lot of things to do with you."

"you say"

"My experiment here is almost over. You may have to help me move the equipment and materials. In addition, I would like to trouble you to inform the Eastern Academy of Sciences. There is a lot of confidential information involved here and they need it. A dedicated security department does this."

It's over?

Is this... giving up, not planning to study 1nm lithography machine?

For a moment, Zhou Qichen was a little stunned.
