I can become stronger by paying salaries. I have one billion employees!

Chapter 657 The Candle Dragon G1051 five-axis linkage CNC machine tool? This is so damn easy to use!
"Holy crap! Senlian Capital opened a bank?"

"As soon as Brother Sen graduated from university, the first thing he did was open a bank; while I graduated from university, I went to work in a factory tightening screws. The difference between people is too big."

"I wonder if you're hiring?"

"It's still a long way off. The banking association just issued the financial licenses, and the preliminary preparations will take at least three to six months."

As soon as the news of the establishment of Senlian Bank was released, it instantly became a hot topic online, with various discussions and reposts flooding the screen, making it the most talked-about topic for a time.

The people have long suffered under the tyranny of traditional banks!
After all, they are a vulnerable group; you can't hit them, you can't scold them, and you can't complain about them.

Netizens have high expectations for Senlian Bank, hoping to experience a customer-first feeling instead of being repeatedly harassed by staff when trying to withdraw their money.

But they knew in their hearts that it would be another six months before Senlian Bank officially opened for business.

……

……

On July 22, the Xiaomi Mi 4 was released.

It is equipped with a Tiangong B100 chip, a 5-inch touchscreen provided by Didongfang on the front, and uses the Aurora Future OS 2.2 operating system. The price of the 2GB + 16GB memory configuration is still 1999 yuan.

34.9 units sold on the first day!

Despite the issues of lag and overheating in the first generation of Xiaomi phones, the quality control improved significantly after joining the Orange Technology ecosystem.

The system became smoother, the battery life was longer, and the black screen phenomenon was greatly reduced.

For Xiaomi users, buying a Xiaomi phone is equivalent to buying a sub-brand of Orange Technology.

The Xiaomi Mi 4, priced at 1999 yuan, may not be as powerful as the Orange series, but it is slightly better than the Green Orange series.

In fact, apart from special editions, limited editions, and Meitu phones, most domestic mobile phone manufacturers in 2014 opted for a price range of around 2000 yuan, thus avoiding the Qingcheng and Orange series.

They knew perfectly well that this was the last piece of market Chen Yansen had reserved for himself.

Once Orange Technology enters the market, they won't even get a scrap.

The Meizu MX4, which Huang Zhang plans to release in mid-August, will also be priced at 1999 yuan and will be equipped with the Aurora Future System and the Tiangong B100 chip.

The OPPO N1 mini, launched by Chen Yongming in June, is priced at 2199 yuan.

The number of users of the Aurora Future system is also gradually increasing.

Chen Yansen's attitude was very clear: he was willing to work with Orange Technology, and that they would share the system for free, supply chain resources, manufacturing services, and even sales channels.

The Tiangong series of processors is gradually eroding Qualcomm's market share.

Although Huawei has not joined Orange Technology's ecosystem, the two companies have an extremely close cooperative relationship.

Just like the Honor 6, which was released at the end of last month, it uses the Kirin 920 chip from HiSilicon, but the system is Aurora Future 2.2, and the battery and cell supplier has also been changed to DeepBlue Technology.

In China, at least 6 out of every 10 mobile phones sold use products or technologies from Senlian Capital.

The following day, Orange Mall launched three new products.

Orange 6kg Top-Loading Fully Automatic Washing Machine, priced at 899 yuan;
Orange 9kg Smart Inverter Drum Washing Machine, priced at 1999 yuan;
Orange 8kg Smart Washer Dryer Combo, priced at 2999 yuan!
The entire machine comes with a 3-year free warranty.

The first model targets the low-end market, emphasizing cost-effectiveness; the second model can be connected to the internet and can also connect to the Moss smart speaker, which can enhance convenience through voice control.

You can remotely control the entire washing process by simply throwing the clothes into the washing machine.

As soon as the Orange washing machine was launched, the Orange Mall saw a significant increase in visits.

If it were any other brand, users wouldn't even give it a second glance.

For example, Haier's mobile phones, Evergrande's mineral water, and Baidu's Didi Chuxing. Not everyone is Chen Yansen, who can become a hit in any industry.

In the past there were Orange electric scooters, Orange electric fans and Orange air conditioners, and in the future there are Orange supermarkets, Kuaipao delivery and Orange garment manufacturing.

Judging from the actual sales of these products, Senlian Capital did not make a spur-of-the-moment decision when developing new businesses, but rather invested heavily in research and development, resulting in products with beautiful designs, solid materials, and guaranteed after-sales service.

Take Orange air conditioners as an example; they promise a ten-year free warranty service.

In less than a year, its shipments surged to the top tier in the industry, leaving Gree, Midea, and Aux unable to compete.

Zheng Jianjiang, chairman of AUX, bought several Orange air conditioners. After taking them apart and studying them, he found that the compressor performance of Orange air conditioners was much better than that of Mitsubishi.

Subsequently, he used his connections to contact Chen Yansen, hoping to purchase Orange Air Conditioner's self-developed compressor.

Zheng Jianjiang was initially a little apprehensive, after all, Aux and Orange Air Conditioner were direct competitors in the market, and he was worried that Chen Yansen would refuse the cooperation.

Unexpectedly, Chen Yansen not only readily agreed, but also proposed to sign a long-term cooperation agreement with AUX, which would not only supply compressors, but also provide technical support for the intelligent control system of air conditioning.

Clearly, Chen Yansen simply copied the tactics from the mobile phone industry to the air conditioning industry.

Not long after, Zhou Jieyun from Haier also came to visit.

Gree is too embarrassed to admit it, while Midea is observing from the sidelines.

Now that Senlian Capital is once again venturing into the large appliance industry, business owners across the entire appliance sector are starting to curse.

Especially the home appliance factories along the southeast coast, were terrified that Chen Yansen would ruin their livelihoods.

But reality is cruel!
We can't beat Senlian Capital, and we can't out-argue them either!
Today's Headlines, Douyin, Xiaohongshu, and Kuaishou are all his territory. It's okay to make fun of Boss Chen a few times, but if you say something too offensive, you'll get your account banned immediately.

As for complaints and protests, those are even more useless. Who is Chen Yansen?

He is the vice president of the Huian Chamber of Commerce, a newly elected representative of both chambers of commerce and the richest man in China and the world. He has twice accompanied business exchange delegations on overseas visits, and his company has more than 800,000 employees.

Walking on the streets of Shenzhen, you can run into several employees of Senlian Capital every minute.

Yunsu Express couriers, Kuaipao delivery couriers, Mixue Ice Cream and Kuaipao marketing staff, as well as Kuaipao group buying, Gaode Map and Orange Pay offline promotion personnel.

If you yell even a little louder, you might get a beating.

Ordinary people in China are completely unaware that Senlian Capital covers almost every industry. The mobile phones they use, the clothes they wear, the fast food they eat, and the short videos they watch are all products of Chen Yansen's company.

A week passed in the blink of an eye.

The Xingyuan Technology Optical R&D Center has doubled in size compared to a month ago, and the sounds of machinery operating can be heard from time to time.

"Mr. Chen, it's a success! The flatness, parallelism, and perpendicularity errors of this air bearing are all below 1 micrometer, the dimensional accuracy is below 5 micrometers, and the thermal stability and lightweight indicators have also met the expected standards."

Zhang Yanjie from Harbin Institute of Technology, along with Lin Nan, Wang Xiangchao, and others, strode into Chen Yansen's work area and spoke urgently.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yansen calmly turned around and took the test report handed to him by Zhang Yanjie.

High-precision guide rails, lead screws, and bearings are the core components of the mask stage, requiring extremely high processing technology.

Even the most advanced DL250 CNC super-heavy machine tool of Jiangcheng Heavy Machine Tool Group cannot achieve the corresponding precision.

The technology stack of a lithography machine is like a wooden barrel; if you want to accommodate more space, you can't have a single weak plank.

If any component fails to meet the requirements, the resulting equipment will be unable to meet the production needs of high-end chips.

Chen Yansen glanced at them, then looked up at the group of R&D personnel in front of him, whose eyes were bloodshot from exhaustion.

He leaves work promptly at 5 p.m. every day, but Lin Nan, Wang Xiangchao, Zhang Yanjie, and others usually stay up until 10 p.m. or even the early hours of the morning.

Although the merits were not many, the hard work was still worthwhile.

"Thank you all for your hard work," Chen Yansen replied with a smile.

"Mr. Chen, we'd like to name that machine tool next door. Without it, we can't manufacture high-precision air bearings."

Lin Nan spoke slowly.

The machine tool used for cutting and grinding air bearings was originally a second-hand five-axis floor lathe from Germany. Chen Yansen and his equipment team modified its design inside and out.

The base is made of one piece of granite with a gantry-style symmetrical structure, which ensures that the center of gravity of the moving parts is always on the main axis centerline, reducing the overturning torque.

Granite was chosen because it can quickly dampen vibrations, and its damping performance is an order of magnitude higher than that of cast iron.

The motion system has been upgraded to a fully closed-loop hydrostatic guide rail and equipped with a linear torque motor.

With the addition of an air-static electric spindle, a constant-temperature immersion cooling system, single-crystal diamond tools, and diamond grinding wheels, it can manufacture mask stage components with a positioning accuracy of less than 10 nanometers.

Chen Yansen's gaze followed Lin Nan's gesture and landed on the glass of the adjacent equipment room.

This old second-hand machine tool is completely unrecognizable from its original state. It looks dilapidated, but all the necessary main and subsystem structures are still intact.

It was placed in the very center of the ultra-clean, temperature-controlled room!
“Candle Dragon G1051,” Chen Yansen said after thinking for a moment.

When the Candle Dragon opens its eyes, it is daytime; when it closes its eyes, it is nighttime.

The Aurora G1051's axis travel, maximum speed, axis rapid traverse speed, and precision are comparable to the world's top CNC machine tools. Its true value goes far beyond being a manufacturing tool derived from a mask stage.

With it, Xingyuan Technology truly possesses a "fulcrum" to leverage the industry landscape in the field of high-end precision manufacturing.

When Zhang Yanjie heard the name "Zhulong G1051", his eyes lit up instantly.

He understood what Mr. Chen meant: 1051 represented its positioning accuracy of less than 10 nanometers, repeatability of less than 5 nanometers, and surface finish reaching a mirror-like level of 1 nanometer.

“President Chen, this name is great!” Lin Nan was the first to respond.

Zhang Yanjie then realized what was happening and started calling out "Teacher Chen" repeatedly.

"Old Lin, call General Manager Liang and Yang Yinzhe from the Intellectual Property Department over later."

Chen Yansen gave the order to Lin Nan.

Naturally, Aurogon would only feel secure if it kept the core technology patents of the G1051 in its own hands.

Even if Xingyuan Technology doesn't enter the CNC machine tool industry, he won't easily hand over this part of the profits.

"Yes, boss." Lin Nan nodded in agreement.

the other side.

Upon receiving the message, Li Qingsong was shocked and instinctively asked, "Are you sure you're not mistaken?"

What does it mean that Xingyuan Technology has created high-precision machine tools that are among the world's top tier?

In his view, Xingyuan Technology's R&D team will most likely find another way, adopting a roundabout technical solution to bypass this obstacle.

But the other side just had to face the challenge head-on!

It is important to understand that the stage and alignment system of a lithography machine require high-precision machine tool processing. The essence of semiconductors is precision manufacturing. Without high-precision processing technology, it is impossible to manufacture high-quality mask stages, which in turn affects the development of semiconductor technology.

In order to break through the manufacturing technology of mask stage, Xingyuan Technology also built a five-axis linkage CNC machine tool.
