235 Setback for the Iceman Project

“Li Chengqian, there’s a red spot on the map of the Iceman Project.” The first thing that Academician Lin Qu said on the phone was extremely nervous and his tone was a little heavy.

The domain name resolution server was a prized possession that had been forcefully snatched from Sunset. It was done with a combination of the right timing and the right people.

Everyone wanted to guard it tightly and not let anyone snatch it away.

“Sunset is making its move!”

“What should we do next? How can we make sure the Iceman Project continues?” Academician Lin Qu was very anxious.

He had thought of all the possible ways.

In the end, he realized that there was no way.

Should they reason with Sunset? It’s the survival of the fittest.

There was a lot at stake. The ones with the biggest guns make the rule.

The world had always been run this way, from time immemorial.

“Academician Lin Qu, don’t be anxious. I can roughly guess what’s going on…” Li Chengqian analyzed the information related to Sunset’s new domain name server.

“They are now using Northern Han as an experiment to test the stability of the ROM version of the server system, ordinary computer systems, and related software!”

“If there are no major problems with the experiment in Northern Han, I predict that they will promote their ROM version of the system worldwide!”

The method of promotion was very simple!

Brute force!

“Then what should we do now?” After hearing Li Chengqian’s words, Academician Lin Qu panicked even more.

If Sunset was really determined to promote the ROM system, the Iceman Project, which had just made great progress, would immediately become a failure.

“Unify all forces that can be united!”

“We’ll do our best, and leave the rest to God’s will.”

“Academician Lin Qu, it’s no longer a technology or the internet issue… It’s a political issue.”

“There’s very little we can do.”

“We can only wait and see.”

Academician Lin Qu was stunned, he smiled bitterly because after thinking about it, he realized that what Li Chengqian said was the truth.

“I think the Divine Dragon won’t let us down,” Li Chengqian assured him.

“Now, there’s really nothing we can do except wait,” Academician Lin Qu said in a low voice.

However, he quickly composed himself and asked Li Chengqian, “About the lithography machine… has there been any progress?”

Li Chengqian looked at the lithography machine that was operating and didn’t hide the specific progress from him. “Academician Lin Qu, the lithography machine has been assembled and we are now doing a test run!”

“It will take a little more time to know the exact results of the lithography machine.”

“It’s fine. It doesn’t matter even if it fails… Wait, you just said that it has been assembled and you are doing a test run? Does that mean that you’ve already installed the DUV lithography machine and started it?” Academician Lin Qu finally understood what Li Chengqian meant. His tone was filled with disbelief.

“How did you solve the precise measurement and ultra-precision processing issues of the lithography machine?”

“How did you solve the super-precision motor issue of the lithography machine?”

“How did you solve the issue of the high-power light source?”

“How did you solve the issue of the lithography lens?” Because Academician Lin Qu was too excited, he spoke very rapidly and asked a few questions one after another.

The issues he raised were all areas the Divine Dragon Country was weak in.

These were precisely the technologies that the Country didn’t possess and the other countries wouldn’t sell to them.

This led to the development of the lithography machine in the Divine Dragon Country being stagnant for many years. Even until now, it could only produce 90 nm lithography machines.

“The ultra-precision motor is produced by Huichuan Corporation, a subsidiary of Divine Dragon Software.”

“The high-power light source equipment is produced by Aviation Light Source Corporation, a subsidiary of Divine Dragon Software.”

“The glass lens of the lithography machine is produced by Special Optics Corporation, a subsidiary of Divine Dragon Software.”

“As for the issues of ultra-precision measurement and processing… this is our secret.” He didn’t have any ultra-precision measurement equipment at all. Super-precision measurement and processing were done with his bare hands.

Of course, he couldn’t tell Academician Lin Qu the truth.

Super-precision measurement and processing were actually the core issues in lithography machine production.

All the countries were very strict about the confidentiality of related technologies.

“I’ll go over to your place today to take a look… I’m asking Mr. Qian from the Integrated Circuits Institute to come along.” Academician Lin Qu was excited when he heard Li Chengqian’s explanation.

As for the problem of ultra-precision processing and measuring techniques, he did not probe further.

He also felt that the ultra-precision measurement and processing technologies were Li Chengqian’s core technologies. He wouldn’t share it casually.

When he heard Li Chengqian say that the lithography machine was already doing a test run, he couldn’t help but want to take a look.

If the lithography machine was functioning well, Li Chengqian would be able to rectify another shortcoming in the information industry.

From now on, there was no need to ask for help from the chip manufacturers.

“Alright, you’re always welcome.” Li Chengqian smiled and ended the call with Academician Lin Qu.

Li Chengqian looked at the time. He had spent almost an hour on the call.

Because there was still some time before the chip was produced, Li Chengqian stood up from the sofa and slowly walked out of the factory.

The factory was facing the small desert.

It was noon. The summer sky was cloudless, and the hot sun was roasting the ground.

In the golden desert, an automatic sprinkler irrigation system designed using the intelligent building CAD software had been installed.

Tiny mist kept spewing out of the nozzles. Under the sunlight, a beautiful rainbow hung above the golden desert. It was a beautiful sight, like paradise on earth.

“So beautiful!” Li Chengqian exclaimed.

“Yes, it’s really beautiful. It’s a pity that beauty fades especially quickly. When the sun sets a little, this beautiful scene will disappear.” Zhang Tianling sounded resentful.

“Just like humans, our beauty fades very quickly. If you can’t find someone to admire your beauty… then it will all be wasted when it has faded.” Zhang Tianling said, making a hint to Li Chengqian.

That night, after she was so frightened by Li Chengqian that she fell to the ground, she was completely exposed!

Then… she imagined that Li Chengqian would be turned on by what he saw, and something beautiful would ensue.

However, Li Chengqian looked at her as if he was looking at a piece of meat. His eyes were cold and emotionless.

He ignored her, turned around and continued reading the information.

Zhang Tianling felt aggrieved and indignant.

After being treated like this by Li Chengqian, she even began to doubt her charm.

However, after carefully examining herself and confirming that she was still smooth and beautiful, she regained some confidence.

Then, her unyielding spirit rose, she was determined to seduce Li Chengqian…

But the next day, Li Chengqian went to the small desert. She had no chance to deal with Li Chengqian at all.

Hearing that Li Chengqian’s work was about to end today, Zhang Tianling came over early in the morning to wait.

Li Chengqian didn’t respond to her at all. Instead, he smiled and said, “How are you doing? How are you adapting to your current job?”

“It’s alright. It’s not difficult,” Zhang Tianling said confidently.

Li Chengqian had given her the role of a negotiator.

It was not difficult for her.

All these years of training had trained her to be able to read people’s expressions. With just one move and a gaze, she could tell what the other party was thinking.

Li Chengqian had acquired many companies in order to produce the lithography machine.

Zhang Tianling negotiated the acquisition of these companies, saving at least half of the acquisition funds.
