Courtyard Houses: From Families of Martyrs and Orphans to Giants of the Times

After Zhao Changhe placed the documents on the table.

The entire laboratory fell silent.

The group that was just discussing the processor design drawings with great enthusiasm.

At this moment, everyone's attention was focused on the invitation.

Dean Zhou took off his glasses.

I read it carefully once.

His brows slowly furrowed.

"International Electronics Technology Conference..."

"How come I've never heard of this before?"

Zhao Changhe explained.

"It used to be."

"But it's not that big."

"This event was jointly organized by several large international electronics companies."

"Many research institutions were also invited."

"They said it was to jointly explore the future development direction of the electronics industry."

Gu Changfeng curled his lip upon hearing this.

"Shall we discuss this together?"

"This doesn't sound like good news to me."

"When did these people become so generous?"

Many people in the conference room laughed.

Although Gu Changfeng did not understand electronic technology.

But in this kind of thing...

However, their sense of smell is exceptionally keen.

Lin Jian'an picked up the invitation.

I slowly turned a few pages.

The more I look at it...

The more pronounced the smile at the corners of their mouths.

Dean Zhou noticed his expression.

"Jian'an."

"Have you discovered something?"

Lin Jian'an handed the documents to everyone.

"Take a closer look."

Everyone flipped through it again.

A few minutes later.

Suddenly, Engineer Li from the Electronics Research Institute looked up.

"They did not invite any countries."

"The invitation was for an individual."

In a word.

Everyone immediately realized what was happening.

That's right.

The invitation letter bore the name Lin Jian'an.

It is not a national industrial science and technology park.

It is not the National Semiconductor Experimental Center.

It's not the relevant department either.

It was Lin Jian'an personally.

Zhao Changhe's expression darkened slightly.

"This is an attempt to separate the individual from the nation."

"If you agree."

"Many things are difficult to handle."

Dean Zhou nodded.

"and."

"If the conference is deliberately targeting them."

"Jian'an will be in a very passive position if he's alone."

The meeting room fell silent again.

Everyone realized this.

This invitation.

This is not a normal invitation at all.

It was a test.

It could even be a public contest.

......

That evening.

The Ministry of Industry also received the news.

Beijing.

Inside the meeting room.

Several leaders are studying this matter.

Chen Zhenhua put down the documents.

He said slowly.

What do you all think?

An old leader pondered for a moment.

"If I don't go."

"People will say we have a guilty conscience."

The other shook his head.

"go."

"The risks are not insignificant either."

"Many foreign companies are now keeping an eye on us."

Silence fell over the meeting room.

Just then.

The secretary walked in.

"Comrade Lin Jian'an has arrived."

soon.

Lin Jian'an pushed open the door and entered the conference room.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries.

Chen Zhenhua handed him the invitation letter directly.

"Tell me your thoughts."

Lin Jian'an did not answer immediately.

After reviewing all the materials.

Only then did I slowly put it down.

"I suggest."

"go."

Two words.

This surprised many people.

Chen Zhenhua asked with a smile.

Why?

Lin Jian'an stood up.

Walk up to the map.

He was pointing to several industrialized countries overseas.

"These countries."

"What I want to know most right now."

"It's not about whether we have the technology or not."

"The real question is, where exactly have we progressed in our development?"

"Since that's the case."

"Then let them see."

In the conference room.

Many leaders' eyes lit up.

Let's keep listening to him.

"certainly."

"Things to see."

"It's up to us."

When will you watch it?

"It was also our decision."

"The initiative."

"It cannot be given to someone else."

In a word.

The entire conference room fell silent for a moment.

Then.

Chen Zhenhua was the first to applaud.

"Well said."

"The initiative must be in our own hands."

The others nodded in agreement.

soon.

The meeting reached a consensus.

participate.

But not in a personal capacity.

Instead, he attended as a member of the national science and technology delegation.

Simultaneously.

Several core experts from the science park accompanied him.

Upon hearing this decision...

Gu Changfeng laughed.

"That's good."

"They want a one-on-one fight."

"So we went as a group."

Everyone burst into laughter.

......

The news reached the science park.

The entire park was in an uproar.

Especially the young researchers.

They were all incredibly excited.

"Really?"

Are we going to an international conference?

"Finally, we can show them what we've accomplished."

But excitement aside...

When things get really busy.

Everyone then realized that things were far more complicated than they thought.

Because of attending an international conference.

It's not just about bringing a few documents.

More importantly, it's about what to showcase.

In the conference room.

Dean Zhou spoke first.

"The lithography machine is not allowed."

"It involves classified information."

Engineer Li nodded in agreement.

"Even chip design schematics won't work."

"Many of them are top secrets."

The group discussed it for a long time.

There has been no consensus.

Just then.

Lin Jian'an suddenly said.

Why must we showcase ready-made results?

Everyone was taken aback.

"What do you mean?"

Lin Jian'an walked to the blackboard with a smile.

Write down a few words.

Industrial automation.

Everyone's eyes lit up immediately.

Yup!

This is one of the most mature achievements of the science park.

Moreover, many of these technologies are already in use.

It can demonstrate strength.

And it won't reveal the most core secrets.

Gu Changfeng slapped his thigh.

"Brilliant!"

"Let them see it."

"I still can't learn it."

In a word.

The meeting room immediately erupted in laughter.

The plan was quickly finalized.

The content displayed includes...

Domestically produced CNC system.

Industrial robot model.

Automated production line control platform.

And some computer-controlled demonstrations.

These achievements are both advanced.

And it won't reveal your hand.

......

The next two weeks.

The entire science park has entered the preparation stage.

In the laboratory.

Engineers are constantly optimizing the demonstration equipment.

The computer center also developed a special demonstration program.

Even Gu Changfeng started practicing explaining it every day.

Dean Zhou joked.

"Old Gu."

"When did you switch careers to become a tour guide?"

Gu Changfeng was very serious.

"What do you know?"

"That's called national image."

"We can't let the science park down."

Everyone burst into laughter again.

Meanwhile.

The system also quietly refreshed.

[International Technology Conference Coming Soon]

[Task Released]

[Task Name: International Technology Showcase]

[Goal: Enhance the nation's scientific and technological influence]

[Phase Reward: Second-Generation Processor Architecture]

[Special Bonus: Future Industrial Internet Technology]

See the last reward.

Lin Jian'an's heart also stirred.

Industrial Internet.

This is a crucial foundation for future intelligent manufacturing.

It seems.

This international conference.

It's not as simple as it seems on the surface.

......

Three days before departure.

Zhao Changhe came to the office again.

"Jian'an."

"There's one more thing."

"According to intelligence."

"At this conference."

"Someone might be deliberately targeting us."

Lin Jian'an raised his head.

In which aspect?

Zhao Changhe handed over a document.

"Technical standards."

"They are preparing to take advantage of the conference."

"Introduce a new set of international standards."

"If it passes."

"In the future, many countries will only be able to produce according to their standards."

Dean Zhou immediately frowned.

"This is an attempt to seize control of the narrative."

Lin Jian'an nodded.

"Not only that."

"They also want to use standards to restrict newcomers."

The laboratory fell silent again.

Everyone knows.

Real competition.

It's never just about products.

It is also a rule.

Who makes the rules?

Whoever holds the initiative will have the upper hand.

Thinking about this...

Lin Jian'an slowly stood up.

Looking out the window at the science park under construction.

A slight smile appeared on his lips.

"Since they want to make the rules."

"Then this time."

"We'll go and tell them."

"The rules of the future."

"It doesn't necessarily have to be up to them to decide."

outside the window.

The morning sun slowly rises.

Cars were already parked at the entrance of the science park.

National Science and Technology Delegation.

We are about to set off.

This is the story of Huaxia Technology's first real step onto the international stage.

And so it officially began.
