Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 1312 Excellent Staff
In the early morning of the second day, Duan Yun came to the chip factory.

The two Dutch experts had already returned to Shenzhen the day before yesterday and lived in the guest house next to the factory.

This is a lot of tools and instruments brought by Dutch experts, most of which Duan Yun has never seen before, and he does not know what the functions of these instruments are.

Although these two Dutch engineers were indeed greedy for money, they worked very hard. On the afternoon of returning to Shenzhen, he had selected and organized an installation team through Duan Yun, including 7 technicians who had been trained in Japan before. There are also more than [-] porters. The company's full-time translators Chen Tiesheng and Li Yun act as Chinese liaisons and are responsible for coordination.

These ASML lithography machines are very precise, and the wear and tear of any part may lead to a decrease in the accuracy of the entire machine. The iron armor flew up against the wind and waves, but the key components of the thick packaging were not damaged. After passing the test of the instrument, the two Dutch engineers were relieved.

However, it is not a simple matter to send these machines into the clean room. In order to avoid the introduction of dust, all parts have to go through a series of dust removal treatments before entering the workshop.

In addition, different from ordinary machines, ASML’s lithography machine has a complete installation manual. The manual has hundreds of pages, most of which are some installation data parameters, and all parts are numbered. It must be installed in order, and how much strength is required to install one of the screws, and the deviation of each lens is strictly marked. In addition, it took a whole morning to level the base.

In fact, the lithography machines of this era are far less complicated than the lithography machines of later generations. The ASML lithography machines after 2000 are at least about 10 parts, but now there are less than 1 parts. The components are almost similar to those of a car, but the difficulty of assembly is still not small.

ASML lithography machines with a one-micron process can be called the most advanced lithography machines in the world today. They still use German Zeiss lenses. From the perspective of parameters, the resolution can reach about 0.65 microns, which should be The strongest optical lens in the world.

Although Japan's Nikon lithography machines account for 80% of the international market, the resolution of Nikon's optical lenses is actually slightly inferior. Although there is only a difference of 0.7 microns in resolution at around 0.05 microns, this gap is actually It's not easy to make up for.

The reason why Nikon's lithography machines are far more popular than ASML lithography machines is mainly because of the support of Japanese domestic manufacturers for their own lithography machines, and the United States' vigilance against European technology surpassing, so in most cases they It will also purchase Japanese lithography machines, which also leads to a difficult situation for ASML.

"How is it? These two Dutch experts are not lazy, are they?" In the aisle of the workshop, Duan Yun asked Li Yun with a smile.

"They foreigners don't seem to like to work overtime. They only work 6 hours a day, and they stop working at 2 o'clock in the afternoon." Li Yun shook her head with a smile, and then said: "But they are still very serious about work, installing a screw And keep staring at the instrument, really careful..."

"En." Duan Yun nodded lightly, and then asked: "Do our technicians communicate with these two Dutch experts usually?"

"They don't know a foreign language, and they don't have any communication at all. They all rely on me to pass on the message." Li Yun shook her head, and then said: "Our people generally only do some moving work, and these two Dutch experts personally do the assembly work, and we are not allowed to do it. Technicians are watching around..."

"Eh..." Hearing this, Duan Yun showed a look of disappointment on his face.

The people Duan Yun picked out this time to cooperate with the two Dutch experts are all the technical backbones of the chip factory, and a few of them are also specialized in learning mechanics. He obviously hopes that his employees can work with the two experts. When the Dutch experts cooperated, they learned and mastered certain techniques.

But now it seems that Robin and Vincent are also very scheming. The saying of teaching apprentices to starve to death is not only used in China, but also abroad.

"But they are not wary of me. They know that I am a translator, so we talk a lot." While speaking, Li Yun took out a small notebook from her pocket, and said to Duan Yun: "The two A foreign expert has an installation manual, and I was there when they checked the manual, and I have also recorded some information in the past two days..."

"Great, well done!" Duan Yun said approvingly.

Obviously, Li Yun is a very smart girl. He has already seen how many years of thinking, so when serving as a liaison for the two Dutch engineers, he also tried his best to help Duan Yun get some technical information.

And Chen Tiesheng, who is also the translation contact person, is obviously not as clever as Li Yun. When Duan Yun asked him just now, this guy just kept praising the two foreign experts for their good skills. Last year, he produced some valuable technical materials. None got it.

This is the difference between excellent employees and mediocre employees. Excellent employees always have something in their eyes and can see the intention of the leader at the first time, while mediocre employees will only follow the steps. Such people are destined to have no development prospects.

"Their manual has a lot of content, with more than 100 pages. It would take a long time for me to memorize the excerpts every day, and I may not be able to remember all of them." Li Yun bit her lip lightly, and then said: "So I I wonder if we can quietly transport the copier of our factory to the workshop, and then hide it, and when the two of them are resting, I can quickly copy the entire manual."

"Okay, I think your method is good!" Duan Yun nodded, and then said: "I will arrange for someone to transport the copier to the installation workshop tonight. If you can really help me, I don't need the manual there. I will give you 3000 bonus per month!"

To transport a heavy copier to the clean room is obviously exaggerated in the eyes of outsiders. After all, the machine is a bit heavy, and after this machine enters the clean room, it will have a certain impact on the environment of the clean room. For Duan Yun, this is the easiest way to obtain complete foreign technical information. The clean room can purify the environment again through air filtration. However, once the foreign experts leave, he will never have the opportunity to get their documents again. Installation Manual……
