Countercurrent 1982

"I heard that your company has the most advanced integrated circuit factory in Asia, Mr. Duan, can you arrange for us to visit it?" When all the visits were about to be completed, an electronics expert who was traveling with Roach suddenly asked Duan Yun Require.

Roach himself is just a financial expert. He doesn't pay much attention to the electronics industry, and he doesn't know much about it. However, some of the expert team with him have already offended some Tianyin Group, especially the group's chips. The technology level of the industry is quite high, and it belongs to the top level in the whole of Asia. Looking at the whole world, it is also second only to the existence of the US chip industry.

The emergence of such an electronic company with such advanced technology in China has actually aroused the vigilance of relevant experts in the United States. Therefore, before coming to China this time, experts in the electronic industry from the United States have already appeared in the accompanying team. The task of visiting China is to know the current technical strength and production level of China in the chip industry, so as to formulate relevant technical blockade measures.

However, in the past few days of investigation, Duan Yun kept silent about his chip factory. Even if experts asked him, he would just change the subject lightly, so that at this time, these American experts in the same industry began to ask for it.

"Our company does have a chip factory, and most of the chips produced meet the needs of our own company and other domestic companies, but the superior has requested that this factory not be open to the public for the time being. I regret this, but that's the only way to go. "Duan Yun showed a helpless face, and said to those American experts who made the request.

Duan Yun will definitely not let them visit his chip factory, because in the chip workshop, many pieces of equipment, including lithography machines, are imported from European ASML and other foreign related companies through various gray channels In China, if these workshops are opened for Americans to visit, it is actually tantamount to selling out these foreign partners who privately sell related machines to themselves, so even if their demands are very strong, Duan Yun will definitely not agree.

"Mr. Duan, your company has indeed left a very deep impression on me. The purpose of our visit to China this time is to cooperate with a powerful Chinese company like your company, so I hope you will not refuse our request, because This is very likely to affect our future cooperation." At this time, Roach also began to speak, with a tone of pressure.

Obviously, Duan Yun's warm reception this time made Roach feel that he really needs the support of American capital, and no matter which country he went to, he would receive a high-level reception. The reason is also very simple, that is, The Wall Street capital he is backed by is very strong. No foreign company can resist the temptation to go public in the United States, and Tianyin Group is no exception.

Therefore, Luo Qi is going to directly put pressure on Duan Yun, asking him to accept the requirements of these technical experts in the same industry, and visit their chip companies in an all-round way, so as to find out the true strength of Tianyin Group in the chip industry.

What Roach and these American experts did not expect was that Duan Yun was not eager for the group company to go public in the U.S., and he didn't even intend to do so at all. Large sales channels and resources, but as far as the domestic Tianyin Group itself is concerned, Duan Yun does not allow other people to get involved.

"Mr. Luo Qi, you need to understand that any company has its own core secrets, which are related to the foundation and development of our company, so we can't easily reveal them to the public." Duan Yun frowned slightly, and continued: " I welcome Mr. Roach's visit very much, and from my heart, I am full of respect for everyone, but some things are really not something I can easily make decisions, I hope you can understand."

Duan Yun's words are rather subtle, which is also his usual style. Even in the face of foreign experts who obviously have other intentions, Duan Yun still behaves very calmly, because in the philosophy of Chinese businessmen, making money with harmony is a very important one. purpose, and there is no need to turn against the other party under such circumstances.

"Mr. Duan, actually we just want to..."

"Mr. Luo Qi, let me reveal something to you. In fact, the actual control of our company's chip factory is not in my hands." Duan Yun interrupted Luo Qi and said directly.

"Huh?" Hearing what Duan Yun said, Luo Qi was stunned for a moment.

"You probably forgot that we are a socialist country. Although I am a private enterprise, in terms of some special industries, we need to follow the relevant regulations of some countries." Duan Yun paused, and then said: "You can inquire about it in many ways. Take a look, Shenzhen is our country's fourth national-level microelectronics base, where the country's top microelectronics technology experts are gathered, including BJ, the strongest integrated circuit laboratory in Shanghai and Guangzhou, and all scientific research units and personnel, All research and development and work are carried out around this chip factory. In other words, this chip factory was built by us with the power of the whole country. There are many technologies and equipment in it that involve state secrets. Our group company supports and assists in the development of its products. Production and marketization, and do not actually control this factory, if you really want to visit, you can apply to our Electronic Industry Department in BJ, if they agree, I can let you visit naturally."

At this time, Duan Yun simply used the country's government departments as a shield to refuse them to visit.

In fact, what Duan Yun said is also half-truth. Shenzhen is indeed the only microelectronics base in China. There are indeed many national scientific research institutions and technical personnel in the Shenzhen Science and Technology Park, but Tianyin Group’s chips As far as the factory is concerned, Duan Yun has absolute control, but Duan Yun said so, so that the other party can no longer find a suitable reason to forcefully visit.

Another point is that Duan Yun emphasized that this is a chip factory established through the efforts of the whole country, which means to tell them that all the technology here is Chinese technology, so as to avoid Americans' suspicion of Tianyin Group's smuggling of related technologies and equipment. .

Sure enough, upon hearing what Duan Yun said, Luo Qi and the others immediately showed disappointment on their faces.

In their view, Duan Yun's words are still very credible, because they have always doubted how a Chinese private company could produce world-advanced chips, and Shenzhen is one of the few national-level microelectronics bases in China. It can also be easily understood, so considering various factors, they can only give up visiting this chip factory.
