Chapter 245 - 245 Contract



But he finally agreed on second thought!

This was because Wang Yizhi had yet to send any final update. Although he felt that there would be no problem with the results of the inspection.

Since Li Chengqian dared to say that he was able to mass produce the key components domestically.

That must be true.

Because there was no need for Li Chengqian to lie.

The lithography machine holds an extremely important strategic position in chip production.

However, the market for lithography machines was not big! The profit margin wasn’t too high. For a world-class giant like ASML, it actually didn’t make much profits in a year, ten billion at the most.

As for Li Chengqian, he was already the overlord of operating systems.

Operating systems alone could bring Li Chengqian hundreds of billions of yuan in profit in a year.

Would Li Chengqian ruin the reputation of the Divine Dragon Software Company for the sake of ten billion yuan in profits a year?

This was obviously impossible!

However, to be safe, just in case, he still needed to maintain his relationship with Louise.

If something happened to the Divine Dragon Software Company, they could still buy a lithography machine from ASML as long as they maintained their relationship with Louise.

Moreover, after this incident, Huang Jun believed that the people of ASML would no longer dare to be arrogant in front of him.

Even if he bought a lithography machine from ASML, the price would be affordable.

Those who came over would never be humiliated again.

Under Louise’s lead, everyone filed out and walked towards the most upscale restaurant in town.

Chaiter walked at the back of the crowd with a long face. He was like a joke.

No one greeted him or exchanged pleasantries with him.

When Wang Wei and the other young people passed by Chaiter, they sneered.

Although Wang Wei and the others didn’t speak, it was all written on their faces.

Chaiter’s face turned even paler. He carefully recalled what Huang Jun had said. The more he thought about it, the more afraid he became.

Other than the National Chip Company, no other company in the world could place such a big order for this batch of lithography machines.

These lithography machines were stored in a high end, clean room warehouse. They needed to be maintained regularly.

In the past year, it had cost ASML almost 50 million yuan.

If the contract was signed with the National Chip Company, even if this batch of goods could not be transported away for some reason…

The losses would be borne by the Divine Dragon Country.

“He’ll kill me and tear me to pieces.” In an instant, Chaiter was drenched in cold sweat.

“No… It can’t be! The Divine Dragon Country definitely hasn’t mastered the production technology of the lithography machine. Even if they have, they can’t mass-produce it!” Chaiter kept consoling himself.

“If the Divine Dragon Country had already mass-produced the lithography machine, Huang Jun and the others wouldn’t have stayed here to chat with us. They would have definitely gone back.”

“Therefore, I still stand a chance.”

“The Divine Dragon people might be waiting for us to lower the price or… to sweeten the deal!” After Chaited consoled himself, he felt much better.

“I have to sign the contract… I can’t let them go. Otherwise, CEO Wembide won’t let me off. The company’s shareholders won’t let me off either.” Thinking of this, Chaiter bent down slightly and forced a smile on his face. He jogged after Wang Wei, keeping his posture very humble.

There was no longer any arrogance on his face, and there was even a trace of subservience.

The day after visiting the component factories, Wang Yizhi appeared in Li Chengqian’s office under Zhao Na’s lead. He had a smile on his face.

“President Li, I’ve visited all the component factories!”

“I’m very satisfied!” After confirming that all the components were produced by the Divine Dragon Software Company, Wang Yizhi’s last concern was eliminated.

Just as Li Chengqian had said, the Divine Dragon Model 1 lithography machine was 100% domestically made.

The only regret that Wang Yizhi had was that he didn’t see the lens polishing of the lithography machine.

However, he already had enough confidence based on what he saw.

“I’m here today to confirm the purchase contract with you, President Li.” Wang Yizhi was straightforward and went straight to the point.

“Regarding the price of a single lithography machine, can you give me a discount? Can we pay in installments?”

When Li Chengqian heard Wang Yizhi’s questions, he felt a headache coming on. “President Wang, please wait a moment. Zhao Na will be in charge of the equipment factory. I’ll only look at the final outcome. I won’t participate in any commercial negotiations.”

“Zhao Na, please take over the negotiations. I’m making a trip to school first. The university entrance examination is tomorrow. My examination pass is still with Teacher Wang Jianjia.” Li Chengqian didn’t give Wang Yizhi a chance to speak at all. After saying that, he quickly disappeared in a flash from the office.

“What did President Li say? He’s taking the university entrance examination tomorrow?” When Wang Yizhi heard this, his jaw almost dropped and his eyes almost fell out of their sockets.

Based on external estimates, the wealth that Li Chengqian controlled had already reached 400 billion yuan.

He was now the top 40 wealthiest man on earth, and the third wealthiest man in the Divine Dragon Country!

With so much money and the Divine Dragon Software Company, Li Chengqian was actually still going to take the university entrance examination?

‘Well…’

“Actually, we’ve tried to persuade him, but President Li… the university entrance examination has a special place in his heart. After all, he’s still a student now. Perhaps he wanted to end his high school career on a good note,” Zhao Na explained with a smile.

“President Wang, let’s talk about the lithography machine.” The legal consultant Zhao Na brought along sat on the opposite side of Wang Yizhi, and they began to discuss the contract.

After three hours of negotiation, the contract was finally finalized.

The National Chip Company placed an order for 46 Divine Dragon Model 1 lithography machines from the Divine Dragon Software Company!

The purchase price was 200 million yuan per unit!

The delivery timeline was half a year!

Eighty percent was payable upon the signing of the contract. The remaining 20% would be payable after the machines have been installed and are up and running.

“Director Zhao, you’re really a tough negotiator!” Wang Yizhi stood up with a bitter smile. He realized that after three hours of negotiation, the conditions had not changed.

“President Wang, we’re a local high-tech company of Divine Dragon Country. You should support us!”

“I heard that the DUV lithography machines you bought from ASML are not as good as our company’s. The price is even 100 million yuan higher than ours.”

“In terms of service, it can’t be compared to us at all.”

“President Wang… Really, if President Li hadn’t already said that the price of a machine is 200 million yuan, I wouldn’t have sold it for less than 300 million yuan,” Zhao Na said assertively.

“Alright, alright, alright. You win! The way you are putting it, I’m starting to sound like an evil businessman.” Wang Yizhi said with a bitter smile. He finally knew how capable Zhao Na was.

If he let Zhao Na continue, he might really sound like a traitor who betrayed the country’s interests.

“President Zhao, can you ask President Li when he will be back?”

“I think the purchase of the Divine Dragon Model 1 lithography machine this time is a big deal for the National Chip Company. It’s also a big deal for the Divine Dragon Software Company.”

“It’s also a big deal for the country!” This meant that in the field of lithography machines, the Divine Dragon Country was no longer being held ransom by others.

“I think it’s very necessary to hold a press conference for the signing of the contract!”

“Use the press conference to announce some performance indicators of the Divine Dragon Model 1 lithography machine to the outside world. Also, announce to the outside world the future development plan of the National Chip Company,” Wang Yizhi said with a profound gaze.

After obtaining this batch of lithography machines, the production capacity of the National Chip Company could double.

Moreover, after obtaining this batch of machines, the National Chip Company would be able to produce more advanced chips!

In the past, the National Chip Company could only produce 10-nanometer chips. It was a known fact that they couldn’t purchase higher end lithography machines at all.

Even if they place the order, they would not be able to transport it to the factory of the National Chip Company for various reasons.

In order to break through this limitation, the National Chip Company had done a lot of work.

For example, Huang Jun was tasked to go to ASML to purchase a more advanced 7-nanometer DUV lithography machine.

However, there was no need for that in the future!

This was because a better lithography machine was now available domestically

As long as the Divine Dragon Model 1 lithography machine was installed in the factory of the National Chip Company, the production of the 7-nanometer chip could immediately begin.

With the enhanced 7-nanometer production technology, there would be an explosion of advanced chips in the Divine Dragon Country.

In terms of mobile phones, Huawei-related chips could be produced again.
