1979: Literary Master, Starting from the Return of Educated Youth

Chapter 182: Forging Swords for the Country, Chip Factory

After hearing this, the Longines man looked conflicted for a moment, then glared at the female supervisor with a frown.

"What price did you and Boss Xu quote?"

"Boss, I..."

"What do you mean by me? Get out of here!"

The Longines man pointed at the female supervisor and scolded her fiercely.

"Sorry, it is my fault."

The female supervisor quickly lowered her head and walked away dejectedly.

Xu Yuexin stood aside and watched the two people perform quietly.

He knew that the Longines man and the female manager were performing this scene not only for him, but also for the white guy.

There must be an agreement between Intel and their agency that stipulates the upper limit of the transfer price and commission points.

As for this trick of taking advantage of the previous owner and then taking advantage of the next owner, it is strictly prohibited.

Once discovered, the consequences will be extremely serious!
After the heated conversation, the atmosphere on the scene became increasingly tense.

The white guy sitting opposite was frowning at this moment.

Even though he didn't understand Chinese, he realized something was wrong from the tone of the conversation between the two parties.

"Mr. Xu, may I ask how your negotiations with them went?"

The white guy asked seriously.

"Ah, it's like this, there was a little misunderstanding between us..."

The Longines man quickly explained in English.

"I'm asking him, not you."

The white guy interrupted mercilessly, then waved his hand to drive the Longines man out.

At this time, Xu Yuexin began to tell the white guy the whole story.

The white guy looked unhappy after hearing this, especially when he heard the offer of 400 million Hong Kong dollars.

This kind of thing is a scandal for the company.

He had to do something about it.

The white guy made up his mind.

After Xu Yuexin finished speaking, he immediately expressed his position.

"Hello Mr. Xu, we are sorry that we have caused you an unpleasant experience due to our carelessness in selecting the agent."

"I decided to break the convention this time and do business with you directly, waiving the 20 yuan agency fee."

"Besides that, the patent price is 9% off."

"Of course, I am not without conditions. I hope you can sign a confidentiality agreement with our company's patent department and not disclose this matter."

The white guy said sincerely.

"90 Hong Kong dollars, including the right to produce 40-micron chips and upgrade them, right?"

Xu Yuexin's face was no longer gloomy, and a smile slowly appeared in his eyes.

The patent was originally worth 400 million Hong Kong dollars, but he got it for only 90 Hong Kong dollars.

Haha, the 40-meter-long sword has once again been useful.

Xu Yuexin said happily, and he could hardly suppress the smile on his face.

"That's right. After signing the contract, we will continue to provide you with technical services, and you are also welcome to join Intel's supply chain."

"Okay, let's sign the contract now."

After Xu Yuexin finished speaking, he sat down with the other young men. After Xu Yuexin took out the contract from his bag, they began to review the terms together and sign them.

The terms of the patent contract were very long. When Xu Yuexin finished reviewing and signing, the street lights downstairs in the hotel were on.

Xu Yuexin had a working lunch with the white guy and then returned to his Mid-Levels mansion.

According to the contract, Intel needs to deliver all manufacturing technologies of 40-nanometer chips to him within five working days and provide technical services within the next five years.

After returning home, Xu Yuexin made some plans and felt confident that he could resolve all issues regarding land and factory construction during this trip, and that production could be started by the middle of next year at the latest.

The location of a chip factory does not need to be too prosperous, it can be a bit remote.

However, it needs to be close to Kwai Chung Pier for convenient transportation.

Besides that, it’s talent.

Currently, the countries with the most developed chip manufacturing industries in the world are the United States and Japan, so if you want to poach people, you naturally have to go to these two countries.

Xu Yuexin doesn’t know anyone in the United States, but he has a Minako in Japan who might be able to help him.

I just don't know if this woman will turn against me after she gets pregnant with my child.

After all, from the perspective of interests, severing all ties with herself is Minako's safest choice.

With a tentative attitude, Xu Yuexin called Minako after returning to his luxury villa in Mid-Levels.

"Beep...beep..."

"Hello, is this Mr. Xu?"

After the call was connected, a sweet yet incredible voice came from the other end.

"Yeah, it's me. Are you asleep?"

Xu Yuexin asked.

"not yet."

"Excuse me, how busy is Mr. Xu? It took him three months to greet my mother and me."

After confirming that it was Xu Yuexin, Minako's voice became playful.

"Oh? It's confirmed to be a girl."

"Yes, I just checked it two days ago, and the child is growing well."

"Why doesn't Xu Jun like girls?"

"Yes, boys and girls, I like them all."

"Take care of yourself and don't work too hard on yourself."

Hearing Minako introducing the child to him, Xu Yuexin felt a strange feeling in his heart and almost forgot the purpose of this call.

"It's fine. I was just a little tired when I first took over the Watanabe family's business, but now I've transitioned back to normal."

"How about you, Xu Jun? Have you made any new breakthroughs in your career?"

"It's a bit of a new breakthrough, and I've been busy lately." At this point, Xu Yuexin told Minako about his current needs and expressed the hope that she could help him find some talent in the chip industry.

"Mr. Xu plans to work in the chip industry?"

"Okay, I will send all the talents you need to Hong Kong within a week."

"Well, I'll help you."

"You're welcome. This is what I, as a wife, should do for my husband."

In the receiver, Minako said in a charming voice, "You are welcome to travel to Japan anytime~"

"Okay okay."

Xu Yuexin agreed hastily, feeling a little flustered inside.

I have to say that Japanese women are the best in the world when it comes to pleasing men.

If Minako spoke to him like this in person, his bones would surely be broken.

"Who were you talking to on the phone just now?"

Not long after Xu Yuexin hung up the phone, Chen Yixiu walked into the bedroom and asked.

She just vaguely heard a charming woman's voice, so she came over to ask Xu Yuexin.

"With a friend."

Xu Yuexin responded, "I will take care of the land and machinery later. I will arrange publicity for you when everything is ready."

"Is it too tiring?"

Chen Yixiu's attention was diverted by Xu Yuexin, and she sat next to him and said with concern.

Chen Yixiu knew that Xu Yuexin had a lot of tasks these days.

So when she saw Xu Yuexin still busying herself for her, she felt a little distressed.

"Not tired."

Xu Yuexin chuckled, put his arm around Chen Yixue's shoulders and said, "You know how energetic I am."

Chen Yixiu's face turned red when he said that, and she couldn't help but think of what happened last night.

"Not a proper person."

She glanced at Xu Yuexin, reproached him softly, and adjusted the straps of her tank top.

"I didn't say anything."

Xu Yuexin said innocently, and then stared into his sister-in-law's beautiful eyes, "But since you said I'm not serious, then I really am not serious."

After saying that, he held his sister-in-law's chin with one hand and kissed her plump red lips.

"Hey, you..."

The sister-in-law reached out to push him away, but before she could touch Xu Yuexin, he kissed her tightly...

……

The next morning, Xu Yuexin woke up earlier than his sister-in-law again.

Wash up, have breakfast, and leave home to do business.

Xu Yuexin has already solved the problems of patents and talent, and the next step is to buy land and build a factory.

There is no need to rush to buy the lithography machine. Wait until the talent Minako finds for him arrives.

After all, issues regarding lithography machine models and manufacturers still need to be discussed with talents in technology and supply chain management.

Xu Yuexin took a fancy to a piece of vacant land near Kwai Chung Wharf. After finding out that the land owner was Maersk, he was delighted.

Have to deal with them again.

Xu Yuexin found Maersk’s representative office in Kwai Chung, and the person who met him this time was still the general representative from last time.

When hearing Xu Yuexin's intention, the general representative smiled politely.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Xu. With Hong Kong's trade booming, it's impossible for Maersk to sell a piece of land next to the dock."

"If you are interested in other lands under our Maersk name, we can discuss it."

"How much did you pay for it?"

"800 million Hong Kong dollars."

"I'll pay 1200 million, sell this land to me."

Xu Yuexin said firmly.

The location of this piece of land is extremely advantageous. Once the chip factory is built, the packaged chips can be directly transported to Kwai Chung Pier and shipped to various places, which is extremely efficient and convenient.

Nikon's Shinagawa chip factory is just on the west side of Tokyo Bay, and Samsung's Pyeongtaek Park chip manufacturing center is next to Pyeongtaek Port.

Although his factory was a startup, it had to have such a superior geographical location and could not be compromised in terms of location.

The chief representative looked at Xu Yuexin with a little surprise.

Do you really need to add so much money at once for a chip factory?
The general representative thought to himself that it was difficult to understand Xu Yuexin's behavior.

Xu Yuexin looked at him calmly, without a trace of hesitation or regret in his expression.

At present, the chip manufacturing industry is still a back-breaking job with low profit margins.

However, everything will change after the advent of EUV lithography machines.

The industry's profit margins will take off and its importance will increase significantly.

In other words, chip manufacturing is an industry with gold underneath.

Therefore, Xu Yuexin believed that his factory was worthy of such a Feng Shui treasure land, and he was willing to pay an additional 400 million for it.

"Well, since Boss Xu is determined to win..."

"Then I will help you achieve your goal."

After thinking for a while, the general representative nodded.

"Okay, shall we sign the contract now?"

"no problem."

"By the way, this piece of land was just acquired and the term of use is still 50 years..."

……

After reviewing and discussing, Xu Yuexin and the general representative signed the deed and pressed their fingerprints on it.

The land issue has been resolved.

Xu Yuexin walked out of Maersk’s representative office with the title deed and started the construction of the factory without stopping.

The chip factory is finally going to be built!
