Chapter 81 Breaking News! Photoresist price increases
Li Long nodded firmly: "Reliable, I think it's reliable!"

The bosses looked at each other.

Li Long is a very cautious person. I didn't expect him to be so resolute in his judgment this time. It seems that what he saw today was really extraordinary.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Xu Zhijun said: "That's good, that's really great, there is always a way out!"

Li Long added some more information, which answered some questions.

Although there are some questions that I can't figure out, such as whether there is enough energy on the island and whether there is enough fresh water?

But after this trip, Li Long was able to confirm that Hu Jiangshan was indeed the real deal.

He Yunbo smiled. He should be the most excited one now.

He Yunbo is the head of Hixi Semiconductor. If there is no wafer factory to manufacture for Huayao, then their chip design will be completely meaningless and they will be split off sooner or later.

Now, this means that Haixi Semiconductor still has value in existence.

At this time, Wang Chengdong suddenly said: "I have an idea."

Xu Zhijun said, "Old Wang, this isn't a bad idea, is it?"

Wang Chengdong waved his hand: "I bet this is definitely a brilliant idea!"

Sun Yafang said, "Don't keep me in suspense. Just tell me."

Wang Chengdong tapped the table and said slowly: "We are going to release the P30 phone ahead of schedule!"

The next day, Hu Jiangshan had just gotten up and was about to wash up.

Suddenly, the cell phone rang.

【Caller ID: Wang Chengdong】

Hu Jiangshan felt strange. Li Long had just left yesterday, so why did Wang Chengdong call him today?
Something is wrong?
Hu Jiangshan answered the phone.

"Hey, Brother Hu, what are you busy with now?"

"Boss Wang, I'm just about to go brush my teeth and wash my face."

"...Ah? You just woke up?"

Hu Jiangshan smiled bitterly: "Boss Wang, what time is it? Just eight o'clock!"

Wang Chengdong laughed, obviously in a good mood.

"Brother Hu, let me tell you something serious. We want to place an additional order for chips."

Hu Jiangshan was stunned: "Add more orders? Mr. Wang, this order has not been processed yet."

Wang Chengdong replied: "This additional order is different, and the IC design needs to be slightly modified."

“An improved version of Kirin 990?”

"Yes."

Hu Jiangshan suddenly understood and said with a smile: "Boss Wang, is Huayao going to make a big move?"

"Brother Hu, we still need your cooperation."

"Okay, Mr. Wang, I'll do my best."

"Okay, I'll have someone send you the IC design in a minute. You can take a look at it first. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. By the way, we need five million of this chip in advance."

Hu Jiangshan was surprised: "So many?"

Wang Chengdong laughed and said, "Brother Hu, it's okay. Don't worry. Take your time. Let's tape out the film first to see the effect."

Wang Chengdong should have learned about Hu Jiangshan's production capacity from Li Long, and he would not ask for speeding up the progress.

But five million chips is still a lot of pressure.

Hu Jiangshan chatted with Wang Chengdong for a few more words and then hung up the phone.

Although Hu Jiangshan did not ask explicitly, it is likely that Huayao is about to release a new mobile phone, otherwise it would not have ordered new models of chips.

A moment later, Hu Jiangshan received a new email.

The attachment is very large and is a complete set of IC chip design.

This email address was arranged by Wang Chengdong. It is specially encrypted and uses Huayao's intranet. Otherwise, such important information would not be sent.

At this time, we need to be cautious in everything. It may not be useful, but it will definitely not do any harm.

Hu Jiangshan wanted to use his laptop to open the file, but the file was too large and his laptop opened too slowly.

Forget it, let's go to Jiangjun Island. It's time to replace my laptop with a higher configuration.

In the morning, Hu Jiangshan thought about taking a break today and not going to General Island.

Anyway, it's basically routine production now, nothing special will happen.

Hu Jiangshan took out two cans of beer from the refrigerator and was about to go to the balcony to enjoy them.

To be honest, Hu Jiangshan didn't have such leisure time in his previous life. His mind was full of research and overcoming difficulties every day.

Not to mention drinking liquor or beer, even sparkling water is hard to drink.

Now Hu Jiangshan found that his temperament had indeed changed a lot. He knew how to enjoy life and was not working as hard as before.

My sleep time is twice as long as in my previous life, and I wake up much later.

If you think about it carefully, this is normal. After all, Hu Jiangshan has merged with his original body, so his personality is naturally greatly affected.

Hu Jiangshan opened a can of beer and was about to put it in his mouth when his cell phone rang.

【Caller ID: Zhang Rui】

Dr. Zhang called.

Zhang Rui usually doesn't make phone calls. If he does, it means there is something wrong that cannot be resolved.

"Hello, Dr. Zhang, what's going on?"

Zhang Rui said, "Boss, I just called Boss Tian to ask for more. We don't have enough photoresist and I want to buy some more, but Boss Tian said..."

"what did he say?"

"He said that photoresist is hard to buy now and it is not easy to get enough, so he wants to raise the price."

Hu Jiangshan was stunned: "The price has increased? How much?"

"Boss Tian said that the current price will at least double, and there is no guarantee that we can get enough."

Hu Jiangshan had a headache.

If it doubles, the cost will go up a lot.

But you also have to buy photoresist, which is an essential consumable for manufacturing wafers and etching.

This Mr. Tian, ​​whose name is Tian Hansong, is an international troublemaker who was introduced to me by Kevin.

It is said that Tian Hansong is from Taiwan Island, but his accent does not sound like that.

The cooperation was going well, but I didn't expect Tian Hansong to ask for a price increase at this time.

At this time, Zhang Rui said: "Boss, what should we do?"

Hu Jiangshan said: "It's okay, I'll negotiate with him."

Zhang Rui responded.

Hu Jiangshan mentioned to Zhang Rui the fact that Huayao had placed a new order, and they decided to discuss the details together in a day or two.

After finishing the call with Zhang Rui, Hu Jiangshan called Tian Hansong's phone number.

Hu Jiangshan wanted to talk to Tian Hansong in person and find out what the situation was.

In the afternoon, at an open-air cafe on Garden Road in Central.

Hu Jiangshan has been sitting here for half an hour. The time he had agreed with Tian Hansong has passed, but he hasn't arrived yet.

I'm almost done with a cup of coffee.

Just then, a man appeared, it was Tian Hansong.

"Oh, sorry, Mr. Hu, there was a traffic jam on the road, and I spent a long time looking for a parking space. I'm late."

Hu Jiangshan waved his hand: "It's okay, sit down."

Tian Hansong took the initiative to order two more cups of coffee and sat opposite Hu Jiangshan.

Hu Jiangshan asked: "Boss Tian, ​​let's get straight to the point. Why are you raising the price?"

Tian Hansong spread his hands and said, "Mr. Hu, there is nothing I can do about this. The manufacturer has suddenly tightened exports. It is very difficult to get it out now. We have to go through a lot of twists and turns."

"bend?"

Tian Hansong whispered, "It's all about building connections."
