Counterattack 1988

At night, Tokyo.

Wang Lin and Xingzi strolled on the street.

The streets are full of men and women in jeans, loafers, and casual clothes.

Jeans were all the rage in the 90s, not only for casual wear, but also for office workers.

Whether it is a camisole, denim overalls, jeans or a white T-shirt, any one will not be out of date in 20 years.

The bursting of the bubble economy and the overheating of the economy led people to pay more attention to relaxing and comfortable entertainment activities. Music, film and television, and street culture flourished along with the trend, so that the 90s was hailed as the golden decade with the fastest development of fashion in Tokyo. Until now, Tokyo has an undefeated position in Asia and even the world.

The Shinkansen 300-series electric multiple units fly across the viaduct in the city at a top speed of 325.7km/h.

At the intersection, when the green light is on, people from different directions rush through the intersection, which is very similar to the intersection of big cities in my country 20 years later.

"Wang Linjun!" Sachiko smiled shyly, "Go to my place?"

Knowing what was about to happen, Wang Lin asked, "Is it convenient?"

Xing Zi said: "I live alone. If you go to the hotel, your friends will be there, isn't it very convenient?"

Wang Lin thought about it and agreed.

Passing by a small bar, soft and sweet music came from inside.

Through the floor-to-ceiling glass, you can see a band playing in the bar.

"This is "Legend of Moonlight"!" Wang Lin laughed, "The theme song of Sailor Moon."

Sachiko asked with a surprised smile, "Hey, Wang Linjun, have you seen Sailor Moon?"

Wang Lindao: "I've seen it, it's very beautiful!"

Xing Zi said: "I thought, only girls like this kind of cartoon!"

Wang Lindao: "The beautiful girl inside is really beautiful! It's so idealistic."

Xing Zi said: "Animation, you can make whatever you want. Would you like to go in and have a drink?"

Wang Lin and her looked at each other with a smile and nodded.

Xingzi naturally took Wang Lin's arm and walked into the small bar.

The bar is not big, just over 100 square meters. The bar is narrow, and there are two people standing inside, a man and a woman. The woman is the front desk, and the man is the bartender.

Under the dizzy and dim light, there were a few tables of people sitting vaguely, most of them were lovers, chatting with each other.

In the middle of the bar against the wall, there is a small stage with three people on it, a female singer and two male musicians, one playing the electric piano and the other playing the electric guitar. With these two instruments, thousands of charming notes are combined. .

The female singer was wearing a pair of ripped jeans, a gray shirt with no buttons on her upper body, and a knot at the hem at the waist, revealing her snow-white and charming waist.

The long white legs are looming in the holes.

Her body swayed to the rhythm of the music, and it was obvious that she was very involved.

Wang Lin and Xingzi were sitting not far from the stage, drinking and chatting while enjoying the music.

What they drank was a dry gin, which was made by adding a lot of honey and the like, so the taste of the wine was not obvious.

Wang Lin thought that something good would happen in the evening, so he didn't drink too much. He just took a sip each time and drank a glass of wine for an hour.

As the night darkened, the bar's attendance increased.

There are many izakayas on the streets of Tokyo, that is, taverns, which are inseparable from the custom of drinking small alcohol in the East.

After drinking, Wang Lin settled the bill and walked out of the bar with Xingzi.

Xingzi's face was flushed from drinking, she took Wang Lin's hand and sang happily.

She lives in an apartment near Ginza, which is close to the company and very convenient for commuting.

After entering the room, Xing Zi threw herself into Wang Lin's arms, looked up at him, and said with a smile, "Wang Linjun, can you stay in Tokyo for a few more days? Let's go to the hot springs!"

Wang Lindao: "We are here to inspect the semiconductor market this time, and we will go to other regions next time! In winter, shall we go to your hot spring villa to soak in the hot spring?"

Xing Zi said: "Okay, I'll wait for you. You must not break your promise."

Wang Lin cupped her face: "Never break my promise."

……

Wang Lin did not return to the hotel all night.

Both Shen Xue and Zhou Porridge knew about this.

They all wanted to find Wang Lin, but they couldn't contact him.

In this foreign country, Wang Lin did not have a phone in his hand.

Early the next morning, Zhou Porridge came to look for Wang Lin again, only to find that he was still not in the room.

Shen Xue also came over, saw Zhou Porridge in the corridor, and asked, "Is Wang Lin back?"

Zhou Congee shook his head lightly: "No! Where can he go?"

Shen Xue rolled her eyes, and said with a light smile, "Maybe I went to work!"

Zhou Congee said: "What's the matter, I have to do it in the middle of the night?"

She bit her lip: "After dinner last night, he was accompanied by Sachiko. He won't go to Sachiko's house to spend the night, right?"

Shen Xue said: "That's nothing! Maybe it's too late to talk about things, so we just stayed at Xingzi's house?"

Zhou Congee said: "That woman, Xingzi, looks like a monster. She looks at Wang Lin as if she wants to eat people. I'm afraid Wang Lin won't be able to control her!"

Shen Xuedao: "Even if Wang Lin cheated, Wenxiu will take care of it, so we don't need to worry about it."

Zhou Congee secretly wakes up.

In her words, she showed concern and jealousy for Wang Lin, and it was easy for others to discover her inner secrets.

Shen Xuedao: "He didn't say what we are going to do today?"

Zhou Congee said: "It is said that we have an appointment with several people from semiconductor companies to discuss the acquisition. The specific arrangements have not yet been finalized, let's go have breakfast first! If he doesn't come back, we will be happy to relax!"

Zhou Boqiang, Han Qingning, Mian Ling, Wang Haiyang and others all woke up, and everyone went downstairs to have breakfast together.

During the meal, Zhou Boqiang said: "Director Wang called me and asked us to go to Ms. Xingzi's company after breakfast. She helped to make appointments with people from several semiconductor companies to meet in the conference room of her company."

Shen Xue and Zhou Porridge looked at God.

Zhou Boqiang looked at the time and said, "Miss Sachiko's company is in Ginza, and it only takes us 15 minutes to walk there, so why don't you take a taxi? Tokyo taxis are very expensive."

Shen Xue smiled and said, "Boss Zhou, no matter how expensive the taxi fare is, the company will reimburse you."

Zhou Boqiang said: "The company's money is also money, and it's a little bit of savings."

Shen Xue said: "We don't have anything to worry about, but we are afraid that it will be difficult for you to leave."

Zhou Boqiang said: "Boss Shen, you underestimate me! I'm a little older than you, but I'm not in my seventies. I'm afraid I have better physical strength than you! It's not a problem for me to walk for a few hours a day."

Shen Xue didn't say anything more.

After breakfast, the group set off for Sachiko's company.

Wang Lin and Xingzi had already arrived, and they were waiting at the door for Zhou Boqiang and the others to arrive.

"Wang Dong!" Zhou Boqiang stepped forward quickly and shook hands with Wang Lin.

Wang Lin smiled and said, "How did you come here?"

Zhou Boqiang said: "It's not far away, just in time for a walk."

Wang Lindao: "Sit inside for a while, our guests will take another quarter of an hour to arrive."

Zhou Boqiang said: "Wang Dong, how many companies have you made an appointment with?"

Wang Lindao: "I have made appointments with five companies, involving all aspects of semiconductors."

Conductors, we understand.

Insulators, we can also understand.

What we don't understand well is semiconductors.

As the name implies, a semiconductor refers to a material whose conductivity at room temperature is between that of a conductor and an insulator.

The conductivity of a semiconductor is not static. It will change within the conductivity range between the insulator and the metal with the addition of impurity elements, heat, light, and external forces. These characteristics make the semiconductor derived richer application scenarios.

Common semiconductor devices are diodes and triodes.

Semiconductors can be divided into four types of products in terms of application, namely integrated circuits, optoelectronic devices, discrete devices and sensors.

Among them, the importance of integrated circuits is self-evident.

The main downstream applications of integrated circuits can be divided into computer, communication, consumer electronics, automobile, industrial control, military and other aspects.

Integrated circuits are known as the "food" of modern industry. In the information age, various electronic products and systems such as computers, mobile phones, home appliances, automobiles, high-speed rail, power grids, medical instruments, robots, and industrial control are inseparable from integrated circuits.

The United States even calls the integrated circuit industry the first of the four major technical fields that will fundamentally transform the manufacturing industry in the next 20 years.

It can be seen that semiconductors are closely integrated with our modern life.

This is also a large consumer market at the trillion-dollar level.

In terms of integrated circuits, my country relies heavily on imports, which are related to finance, economy, information, energy, security and other aspects.

Zhou Boqiang is a man of science and engineering, and he understands the great significance of Wang Lin's actions.

But Zhou Boqiang's vision was not as far-sighted as Wang Lin's.

However, he unconditionally supports Wang Lin's acquisition.

The companies that Wang Lin invited this time are mainly engaged in silicon wafers, target materials, packaging materials, fluoropolyimide, photoresist and other fields.

As we all know, in the field of materials science, Toyo has obvious advantages, and is in the leading position in the industry in many fields such as metal materials science, nanomaterials, and semiconductor materials.As a result, Dongyang people hold the most upstream and core technologies and products in many industries.

After the United States launched the chip war, Toyo's semiconductor industry plummeted.

Many companies have transformed or even closed down.

The companies Wang Lin invited were all related to chip materials.

In chip production, there are 19 necessary materials, and Toyo Corporation is in the leading position in the industry and even has a monopoly position in 14 of them.

Want to produce lithography machines in one step?
Wang Lin thought too!
However, that was obviously too unrealistic.

What Wang Lin can do now is to grasp as many links in the chip industry chain as possible.

Especially the essential raw materials for chips!
When the entire industrial chain is built, it will be a matter of course to build a lithography machine.

A quarter of an hour later, representatives of several companies that were invited came one after another.

In terms of punctuality, the Dongyang people did not disappoint Wang Lin.

Wang Lin met with the representatives of the company and went to the conference room to talk together.
