Xiaomi Heavy Industry, its first entrepreneurial venture!

Chapter 601 I Don't Understand Technology! (Third Update!)

Looking at these discordant details, Lin Yi silently recited the name of the document and flipped to the corresponding drawing. At the bottom of the drawing, in the title, the words "Eavesdropping Device" were clearly written.

However, the bugging device also had a corresponding serial number attached to it.

Lin Yi counted them; there were a total of 174 parts. They were divided into 34 models and evenly installed in every position of the lithography machine.

Ordinary people wouldn't recognize it as a bugging device, and even professionals would assume it's an ASML design and wouldn't mistake it for one.

Hey……

Lin Yi sighed, turned his head, and looked at a middle-aged man in his forties beside him.

The man's name was Xia Jun, and he was the person in charge of the chip project that Wang Bo had recruited from Wudaokou.

With just a glance from Lin Yi, Xia Jun understood what to do. He turned his head and clapped his hands at the group of people surrounding the lithography machine.

"That concludes today's schedule. Everyone, please go back and rest."

"In a few days, engineers from ASML will be coming over. You should learn from them and observe carefully."

"After reading it, everyone wrote me a 12000-word reflection."

"Everyone, disperse now! Go back and think carefully about how to proceed with the work next!"

Upon hearing this, the engineers left one after another, leaving only a few people present.

Lin Yi pinched the bridge of his nose and asked Xia Jun with a smile, "Do you dare to disassemble the lithography machine?"

"Disassemble?" Xia Jun pointed at the equipment, his face full of disbelief, and asked, "You want me to disassemble this thing?"

"Boss, you must be joking!"

"You want me to dismantle this equipment worth tens of millions? Even if I break it and you don't make me pay for it, I wouldn't dare to dismantle it!"

"You know, this thing is highly sought after by many people. If they knew I broke it, they'd tear me apart!"

"Especially my teacher, he'll probably expel me from the school."

"Never mind, I'll do it myself!" Lin Yi sighed, turned around and walked to the tool room next to him. He asked the person guarding the tool room for the key, picked out a few handy tools, and turned back to the equipment.

He opened the system again, looked through the blueprints, found the easiest place to disassemble, and the listening device that was located there. He quickly disassembled it and removed the listening device from inside.

He held the object in his hand and examined it for a moment, then took out his phone, took a picture, uploaded it to his email, and sent it to Dmitry.

After sending the email, he put the disassembled casing back on.

After returning the toolbox, he took his phone and walked to a corner, out of sight of others, to call Dmitry.

The call was answered instantly.

Lin Yi didn't waste any words and went straight to the point: "I sent a photo to your email address, take a look."

"what?"

"The thing you installed on my lithography machine!"

"What? The stuff on the lithography machine? Please, I'm the director of the CIA, not NASA. I don't understand technology! Don't frame an innocent person!"

You'll see when you see it!

In Brussels, Belgium, Dmitri felt a little guilty when Lin Yi mentioned email again. He said, "Wait a moment," and sat down at the computer to open his email.

A photo taken with a mobile phone lies quietly in my email inbox.

The phone camera is great; the photos it takes are very clear.

It was this clear photo that gave Dmitry a real headache.

Because the thing in the photo is a listening device used by the CIA, and unfortunately, he even knows where it is located.

He had expected to be discovered, but he never imagined it would happen so quickly.

Judging by the timeline, the equipment should have just arrived in China and is still stuck in customs inspection.

So, it must have been during a customs inspection that the equipment was opened and this thing was seen unintentionally.

Having figured this out, Dmitri smacked his head and began to think about how he should respond.

After frowning and thinking for two and a half minutes, he decisively shifted the blame to the European Union:

"You know me, I'm only responsible for making money, I don't understand technology."

"If I'm not mistaken, this kind of eavesdropping device is mainly used by MI6 in England, and they have a partnership with the European External Action Service."

"I guess it's because I got too involved this time that they became suspicious and then installed the bugging device."

"You still need to hold ASML accountable for this matter!"

"Your cooperation is a normal business transaction, yet they actually cooperated with the English to plant listening devices on your equipment."

"This is simply animalistic, worse than an animal!"

"Don't you agree with this logic?"

His silver tongue left Lin Yi, on the other end of the phone, speechless. He could only resort to veiled insults: "Damn Englishmen, their babies are born without an anus..."

"The whole family was hit by a car and killed when they went out, drowned when they went into the water, and burned to death when they lived in their home!"

"He planted a bugging device, why didn't he plant it on his mother!"

"Okay, the remaining money will be transferred to you after the equipment is installed and debugged."

"Let's work together again next time!"

“Let’s work together again next time!” Dmitry replied, then quickly hung up the phone.

He put down his phone and cursed "Englishman" beside him.

After he finished cursing, he took out a small notebook from his pocket and wrote a sentence on it.

The electronic technology of the Chinese people is more advanced than I imagined.

After writing this sentence, he put the notebook back in his pocket, went out, and went to participate in the election for the new rotating presidency of the European Commission.

Jinling.

After cursing, Lin Yi felt a little more at ease.

He put his phone back in his pocket and slowly walked up to Xia Jun. "In a while, I'll have someone bring over the design data for the packaging production line. You'll have to figure out a way to get the packaging process up and running at the same time as chip production."

"We need a complete service from design and production to packaging; we can't walk with one leg limping!"

"I still have something to do, so I'll leave first."

"Just be careful on the spot, and call me if anything happens!"

With a wave of his hand, Lin Yi turned around and pushed Jiang Daqiao out, instructing him as they walked: "Secretary Daqiao, I've brought the equipment back."

Whether Nanjing can achieve great success in the future depends on whether you can get the policy support and assistance.

We still don't have enough people here!

Jiang Daqiao walked out reluctantly, taking two steps and then stopping, taking two steps and then stopping again. After Lin Yi pushed him out of the workshop, he raised his hand and patted his chest: "Don't worry, I'll go to the province to ask for assistance later."

"If they won't give it to me, I'll block their way and prevent them from leaving!"

"Go for it!" Lin Yi clenched his right fist, gave Jiang Daqiao a thumbs-up, nodded, and then turned to Han Shunfa behind him, saying:
"You'll have to work hard during this period. This equipment is quite important. You'll be leading the team, working 24/3 in three shifts."

"There absolutely cannot be any problems!"

Han Shunfa stood there, and after hearing Lin Yi's instructions, he suddenly raised his hand to attention: "Boss, don't worry! As long as we're here, the equipment is here. If the equipment malfunctions, you can skin us alive!"

"But before that, I'll skin the person who ruined the equipment alive!"

"You skinflint, Han! I'm leaving now!" Lin Yi waved his hand, turned and walked towards the parking lot, got into the Mercedes, the driver started the car, drove the car out of the factory, turned the steering wheel, and headed towards Suzhou.

Upon entering Suzhou, we did not go directly in, but instead continued along the main road by the Yangtze River, turned left at the Yangtze River Bridge, and went to Changqingsha Island.

The shipyard equipment has been installed. Now all that needs to be done is to get the manpower on site and start building the ship.

As soon as the vehicle entered the shipyard, Lin Yi saw Zhu Jingyao strolling along the factory dock with his hands behind his back. He paused for a moment upon seeing the old man, then quickly ran over.
"Uncle Zhu, what are you still doing here?"

Hearing this strange question, Zhu Jingyao turned around and asked, "What do you mean, 'Why am I still here?'"

"I've always been here!"

Lin Yi hissed, gestured with his hands and feet, and said:

"What I mean is, Grandpa Guo has already gone back, didn't you two say you were going to go back together?"

"We were supposed to go back together!" Zhu Jingyao, with his hands behind his back, jumped up and down in place, then said softly after stopping:
"But Lao Guo got what he wanted, while I came here this time and got nothing."

"So I thought I'd stay here a few more days, since you're all getting ready to start work anyway."

"I just wanted to take a couple of photos before going back, at least to document it."

"Let me record this experience; this trip was worthwhile!"

Lin Yi had nothing to say to him. Guo Song wanted tanks, which, although difficult to make, only weighed about 50 tons.

Everyone, let's all work hard and put in some extra hours; we can still manage.

Then look at what Zhu Jingyao wants—ships weighing several thousand tons.

That's not something that can be solved by simply working overtime.

That would require thousands of people to work overtime from beginning to end, continuously.

They even said they'd bring something back. What are they bringing back?
Are you suggesting picking up a ship weighing several thousand tons and putting it in your pocket?
In the end, Lin Yi didn't ask the question, but instead advised Zhu Jingyao from the side:
"Grandpa, shipbuilding isn't something that can be done overnight. There's no use in rushing it!"

"It's not that I'm in a hurry!" Zhu Jingyao shook his head and pointed to the sky with his right hand:
"It's the leaders!"

“There’s been a lot of commotion in Japan lately, so the leaders were thinking about whether to get a few ships and take them for a spin in the Sea of ​​Japan.”

"But we also found that our ship was too small, so it didn't have that sense of oppression."

That's why I came out.

"The progress at Jiangnan Shipyard is average, and then there's your side. According to what you said before, your ship, which weighs over 10,000 tons, should be progressing faster than Jiangnan Shipyard."

"so……"

After hearing the explanation, Lin Yi still had nothing to say.

If you want to roam around someone else's territory, a destroyer is the best choice. However, according to the information Lin Yi has, there are currently only six destroyers in service in China with a displacement of over 5000 tons.

Each of these six ships has its own mission and cannot simply wander around there.

Moreover, these six destroyers don't look impressive enough compared to the several Japanese destroyers.

As for the frigate, it's even smaller and less imposing.

It would be more interesting to have destroyers that weigh over 10,000 tons and are filled with vertical launch cells.

After a moment of silence, Lin Yi said softly, "I understand your thoughts, Grandpa, but the problem is, this takes time!"

Listening to Lin Yi's complaints, Zhu Jingyao clapped his hands and said, "Then let's work overtime!"

"Then find someone for me!"

“Okay!” Zhu Jingyao happily agreed, and then, right in front of Lin Yi, he started making phone calls to find more people.

"Jiangnan Shipyard? Majiagou Shipbuilding Technician? I want all of your graduating students this year. I'll arrange for someone to come and take them all away!"

"Yes, shipbuilding!"

"Majia Gou Men's Technical College? Give me a complete list of your students majoring in shipbuilding-related fields."

"If I need people here and other departments come to ask for them, just say it was me who said so. After I've made my selection, they can come and choose!"

"Anyone who dares to say a word, I'll kill him!"

"Research Institute 765? Now, have your people pack their things and come to Suzhou!"

"Don't ask why, don't ask where we're going, just come!"

"Research Institute 699, have the head of your radar department bring the entire radar department to Suzhou!"

Don't ask so many whys!

After making one phone call after another, Zhu Jingyao smiled and looked at Lin Yi:

"Look, we've found all the people for you!"

"If you think we don't have enough people, I can bring in a few more."

"The people I called, plus your people, should be able to speed up the manufacturing process."

Looking at Zhu Jingyao's excited face, Lin Yi rested his chin on his hand and asked the most crucial question: "Who pays the salary?"

In a word.

The old man, who had just been excited, fell silent. He picked at his stubble and, after a long while, looked up and asked, "You want those students, right?"

"I want the good quality ones!"

"That makes things much easier!" Zhu Jingyao clapped his hands. "You can sign six-month internship contracts with those students first. Keep the ones with good performance and send the ones with poor performance back to the school."

"As for the people in other research institutes, their salaries are still paid by the institutes. I will try to get them an extra subsidy."

"That solves the problem perfectly!"

"Okay!" Lin Yi nodded, indicating his approval of Zhu Jingyao's plan.

With the personnel issue resolved, Zhu Jingyao started walking towards the riverbank, and Lin Yi quickly followed. After a few steps, the old man suddenly turned back:
"Do you think that in the future, our ships could sail over to America's side and play on their faces?"

Faced with this question, Lin Yi suddenly remembered his previous life. Back then, when the Queen of England was still alive, China sent a ship to celebrate her birthday.

The joke circulating online is that the Empress Dowager said, "The Japanese ironclad warships have sailed to the Thames."

Visiting America is pointless; the real fun is going upstream along the Potomac River all the way to Washington.

but……

The section of the Potomac River from Washington to the sea is affected by tides, and it seems that only ships of about 5000 tons can pass through at most.

A 1-ton destroyer can't get in.

But it's pointless to send a destroyer of three to five thousand tons into the water.

Of course, it would be even more interesting if America's own ship sailed in, with its cannons pointed directly at Washington.

Unfortunately, the Americans understood the value of unity better than the Europeans. Although a group of people kept clamoring to break apart, they just wouldn't.

Especially Texas!
