Chapter 607
The time is short, but the time is short.
“Half a year?”
After hearing what Joshua Parker said.
Chris Topher’s heart sank to the bottom again.
As the director of the FBI and the head of the intelligence department of the United States.
He knew very well how big the gap was between the efficiency of Westerners and Dragon people.
If the chip alliance can assemble and debug a 10nm lithography machine in half a year at the fastest.
Then for Dragon country, it may only take three months.
If they go all out, they can even get it done in one or two months!
When he thought of this…
Chris Topher’s mood became even worse.
But just when he was about to send the guests away.
Joshua Parker, who was sitting opposite him, spoke first:
“Mr. Director.”
“Because of the chip restriction order, our chip alliance has lost the sales channel in Longguo and is now suffering heavy losses.”
“The chips in the warehouse are piled up like mountains and are facing serious unsalability.”
“With the funds unable to be recovered, various problems have arisen within the company.”
“As the director of the Federal Bureau, you have seen that Longguo will not pose a threat to our United States in the field of lithography.”
“Can you provide relevant certificates to allow the Ministry of Commerce and the Security Bureau to lift the chip restriction order?”
As a senior executive of Qualcomm, Joshua Parker went to the FBI Federal Bureau to make various explanations.
He presented facts and reasoned, and tried his best to prove to Christopher that Longguo people were incapable of manufacturing high-end lithography machines.
The main reason was to allow the relevant departments of the United States.
To be able to lift the chip restriction order that the chip alliance hated and restore the chip import trade of various companies to Longguo.
For this reason
The three giants of the chip alliance, led by Qualcomm, Intel, and Inveda.
In the past two days, after various incitements to the workers, they organized one after another massive march and protest.
But in fact, the effect of this confrontational method is minimal.
Because the United States has beautiful scenery almost every day of the year.
As the saying goes: too many lice don’t itch, too much debt doesn’t worry.
For marches and protests, the masters on Capitol Hill have long been accustomed to them.
Therefore, the core figures of the chip alliance are very clear.
It is completely wishful thinking to want to change the decision of the masters on Capitol Hill by a simple confrontational method.
Marches and protests are just one of the indispensable means.
If you want to lift the chip restriction order, the most important thing is to make the masters on Capitol Hill believe that Longguo does not have the ability to manufacture lithography machines.
Continuing the sanctions and blockades will only result in a lose-lose situation for both sides.
To put it more bluntly, it is…
This economic war started by the Dragon Eagles is ultimately due to the oil issue.
So, you can fight as you like, don’t use our chip industry as a cannonball.
At this time…
Faced with Joshua Parker’s complaints, under his hot and expectant eyes.
Chris Topher, the director of the FBI.
Just lit a cigar expressionlessly, then slowly exhaled a thick puff of smoke and said:
“Mr. Parker.”
“I personally sympathize and understand the current difficulties and experiences of your chip alliance.”
“However, whether the chip restriction order can be lifted is decided by the Ministry of Commerce and the Security Bureau.”
“Our FBI is only responsible for intelligence collection and investigation, not for the management of import and export trade.”
Hearing this.
Joshua Parker, who was originally full of expectations, suddenly became anxious.
Because before he came to the FBI, he had visited the Ministry of Commerce and the Security Bureau many times.
But the heads of the two departments replied to Joshua Parker: He needs to go to the FBI first.
Let the director of the FBI issue a certificate to prove that Longguo will not pose a threat to the United States in the field of lithography.
Therefore.
As a senior executive of Qualcomm and an expert in the field of lithography, Joshua Parker.
Only then would he go to the FBI every few days and constantly give Christopher various explanations and proofs.
“Mr. Director.”
“I know that your FBI is not responsible for the management of import and export trade.”
“But without your FBI, the Ministry of Commerce and the Security Bureau will not lift the chip restriction order!”
Facing the anxious Joshua Parker.
Christopher is
Not in a hurry at all.
He held a cigar in his hand, blew a smoke ring and said in an official tone:
“Oh? Issue a certificate?”
“Prove that Longguo now has no ability to develop high-end lithography machines?”
“But our FBI Federal Bureau has not yet obtained specific intelligence.”
“Who can make a guarantee before it is thoroughly understood?”
As soon as this was said.
Joshua Parker was so angry that his face turned pale.
Because of the tone of the FBI Federal Director in front of him, and the way of playing Tai Chi and kicking the ball.
Joshua Parker, who has been in Longguo for more than ten years, smelled a very familiar smell.
At the same time.
Longguo, Su Province, Jinling, Jiangning District.
In front of the gate of the Jinling Upstream Lithography Machine Industrial Chain Park, which is guarded by high walls.
A boy who is about twenty years old, wearing a plaid shirt on the upper body, jeans on the lower body, and carrying a backpack.
Is sticking his work permit on the instrument at the gate.
[Ding! 】
[Name: Qi Zhiqiang]
[Age: 25]
[Position: Hardware Engineer]
After verifying his identity in front of the security personnel and confirming that he did not carry any prohibited items through the security scanner, Qi Zhiqiang put on his backpack again and walked out of the upstream lithography machine industry chain park.
At this time…
The crowd passing by the park gate couldn’t help but look at this young man twice.
Because the locals in Jinling know that people who can work in the upstream lithography machine industry chain park are almost all top scientific research talents.
It is more difficult to work here than to get into famous universities such as Tsinghua University, Fudan University, Nanjing University, and Renmin University.
In fact… it is true.
Qi Zhiqiang was born in the Longyou Plateau in Gansu Province.
In the Northwest, which is drought-stricken and has backward educational conditions.
With hard work and unyielding to fate.
Qi Zhiqiang broke through the siege with excellent grades and was admitted to the Department of Physics of Tsinghua University and Peking University.
He became the first genius in the local county to be admitted to Tsinghua University and Peking University.
After graduation, Qi Zhiqiang relied on his outstanding talent in physics.
With the recommendation and appreciation of his mentor, he became an engineer of the “Longguang Project”.
Although Qi Zhiqiang was just an ordinary employee in the Jinling Upstream Photolithography Machine Industry Chain Park.
But in his hometown county, his name has always been a role model and pride pursued by countless people!
And just at this moment…
A fiery red Maserati-President stopped in front of Qi Zhiqiang.
The car door opened, and the first thing that came into view was a pair of slender jade feet wearing silver high heels.
Then a beautiful school girl with a delicate face and tall figure came to Qi Zhiqiang with a smile.
