In fact, for every multinational company and foreign trade enterprise, the United States is the most important and largest market.

Although they have a small population.

But they have the largest middle-class consumer group in the world, and their people have a lot of dollars to spend.

The consumption power of one middle-class family is far greater than that of ten ordinary families.

No matter what business you do, customer quality is always more important than customer quantity.

As long as whose product is good enough and can gain a foothold in the United States, anyone can earn countless wealth.

On the contrary, losing this market will have a huge impact on a multinational enterprise.

Chen Weidong is not a person who is willing to be beaten and will not fight back. He smiled lightly and said: "Everyone is usually responsible for their own work. I'm afraid they don't know much about the company's operating conditions. Therefore, in order to let everyone have a better understanding of the company,

With a clear understanding, I still want to say something."

"Our foundation, apart from finance, is instant messaging and computers."

"We were the first to enter instant messaging. After several years of development, it can be said that we have established a firm foothold, and the number of users is also increasing, so we always have a business that is stable!"

"Secondly, when it comes to computer products, to be honest, our technology still lags far behind island countries, Europe and the United States."

"In the past year, our progress has been rapid, and now the laboratory has reached..."

He slowed down his speech, and Li Xi'er reminded him in a low voice from behind: "The laboratory manufacturing process has reached 105 nanometers, and commercialization has reached 150 nanometers."

"...Our laboratory level is just over 100 nanometers, and this time Intel has launched an upgraded version of the Pentium processor in a very short period of time, still using 150 nanometer technology.

This shows that their laboratory level is almost the same as ours, but our advantage is already very small."

"We still have great difficulties to overcome if we want to widen the gap."

"However, when it comes to supercomputers and large servers, compared with foreign countries, we can say that we are not inferior at all, or even surpassed, and they are only half the price of similar products."

"The United States won't let us sell, so we will expand to the European and South American markets."

"The computer market in Europe has long been occupied by the United States. For them, it doesn't make much difference which product they use, so the Europeans are not as determined as the Americans to resist us."

"There are many small and medium-sized companies that cannot afford expensive American products, so they choose to buy our supercomputers and servers, which can save a lot of costs."

"With the quality of our products, it should be very possible to win these customers."

"In this way, the American blockade on us can basically be broken, and our products can truly sell well all over the world!"

There was a burst of applause in the company, which was even more intense than before.

In fact, there are no problems with the company's fundamentals. If it withdraws from the U.S. market, it will only make less money at most.

The main measures to avoid the American market are to expand the market and take advantage of price advantages to promote the company's products to Europe and Asia.

After the meeting dispersed, Chen Weidong specifically asked Professor Kruger and Engineer Zhao from the Precision Instrument Department to stay.

"Our semiconductor instrument development has never been able to open a real gap with foreign countries. What is the reason?" Chen Weidong asked straight to the point.

This is what he cares about most.

The company's chips have developed rapidly in the past two years, faster than any domestic institution. However, while Infinity Company is developing, foreign countries are developing faster. This is something he can't understand.

Isn’t their R&D investment large enough? Why does this still happen?

Zhao Gong smiled bitterly and explained: "Mr. Chen, although we have invested a huge amount of money, we are not idle either. This chip preparation is a systematic project, which involves comprehensive disciplines such as mechanics, chemistry, optics, etc."

.”

"In terms of machinery, we used the micro CNC machine tools we brought back from the island country as the mother machine, and continuously improved them to create more advanced high-precision CNC lathes."

"After adopting the most accurate measuring instruments and automated production equipment, from a processing perspective, the gap between us and foreign countries is negligible."

"However, this is a micro machine tool after all and can only process small workpieces no longer than one meter. Although our largest CNC machine tool can process parts more than three meters long, it will generate a lot of heat during the machining process, although cooling will be added.

liquid, but slight deformation cannot be avoided, which is very troublesome."

"Materials are indeed a problem." Chen Weidong nodded slightly and asked Li Xi'er to write it down.

"In addition, there is also the most important photolithography machine in the semiconductor production line, which is very dependent on the development of optical instruments. Some optical instruments are not sold to us abroad, but you also know the domestic level."

"Our own laboratory can manufacture two or three high-precision lenses in small quantities, but the manufacturing cost is high and the quantity is too small. It can only be used in some small lithography machines and cannot be used by large lithography machines."

Regarding optical equipment, Li Xier noted another aspect that needed improvement.

"Is there any more?" Chen Weidong asked.

Zhao Gong thought for a while, shook his head and said: "Actually, there are still many related problems, but as long as these two bottlenecks are solved, we can overcome other difficulties."

Chen Weidong turned to Lin Zeju and asked, "Can we buy specialized optical instrument factories and material factories in Europe and the United States in the name of a third party?"

"This... should be no problem." Lin Zeju showed a trace of hesitation on his face, and was not too optimistic.

"However, these equipments are on the list of the Batumi Agreement and are restricted from being transported to us. Regardless of the price issue, even if you buy them, you cannot move them back from Europe and the United States."

"Since the Lassen Machinery Factory accident shocked the world a few years ago, the United States has regularly sent people to those important factories to check. If the equipment is missing, expect a lawsuit!"

"You don't have to worry about this! Let's go find someone to do it first. Then we'll submit a budget and I'll think about it." Chen Weidong sighed and still said the same.

Lin Zeju and Chen Jie looked at each other strangely, and they thought to themselves: What does he want to do this time?

Could it be that he was planning to take advantage of a dark and stormy night like he did in the island country to evacuate the entire factory and then walk away, leaving behind an empty shell?

Lin Zeju was secretly frightened and decided to proceed with caution and must find a reliable pedal.

Don't get burned when the time comes, or you'll be miserable if you can't escape.

"By the way, one more thing. We should also firmly grasp the domestic personal computer market and not be afraid of competing with Lenovo. Ninety percent of their accessories are imported."
