Chapter 449: Strong Counterattack
The stock prices of companies involved in the chip supply cut, including Nvidia, AMD, etc., have fallen sharply.
It can be seen that investors have no confidence in their move.
Not to mention whether the act of cutting off supply will really have a huge impact on rabbits.
The decline of the Bald Eagle economy is inevitable.
What's more, Rabbit may also reverse the world's chip landscape because of this chip supply disruption.
In sharp contrast to the turmoil in the US stock market.
The Chinese stock market has been rising since its opening.
Especially in the entire semiconductor sector, many stocks quickly hit their daily limit.
Such results are enough to show that people have great confidence in our semiconductor industry.
Following this momentum, shortly thereafter, we announced a number of initiatives that were beneficial to our semiconductor industry and announced several important achievements we had made in related industries recently.
Among them, more than a dozen achievements related to domestic EUV lithography machines became the headlines.
"Recently, EUV lithography machines jointly developed by Fulong Technology, Xiawei Technology, Modou Microelectronics and other companies have made more than ten great advances. The first domestically produced EUV lithography machine will be put into use as early as the end of this year."
This news undoubtedly made the whole country excited.
"I know we are researching domestic EUV lithography machines, but I didn't expect the speed to be so fast. This time, the US's supply cut will really be in vain."
"Will it really be that fast? I always feel that this is just to calm us down. It will take at least a few years before it is actually put into use."
"We must seize this opportunity to thoroughly develop and expand our semiconductor industry! We have already made the world's best mobile phone chips. Once the domestic EUV lithography machine is truly made and put into use, we will no longer need to rely on their technology!"
…
Across the ocean.
The huge contrast between the two stock markets did not surprise them.
But they did not expect that the progress of domestic EUV lithography machines could be so fast.
"Can just over a dozen technologies really allow them to make an EUV lithography machine so quickly?"
"No, this is absolutely impossible. Even if we have ten times the technology, we can't make our own EUV lithography machine so quickly. They are obviously exaggerating the news."
"That's true. The earliest it can be put into use is the end of this year, but there's no specific date for when it will be put into use at the latest. If it doesn't work out by then, there's still plenty of room for maneuver."
"The turmoil in the stock markets on both sides is only temporary. When it's over, they will realize how much impact the lack of chips will have on them. We can make up for the economic problems quickly. The worst that can happen is that we can just print more US dollars."
"Haha, this is our unique advantage in currency. After a while, we can arrange our fleet to go fishing at sea."
…
Binh Thanh Shipyard.
Xu You, military expert Che Shaozhong, chief designer codenamed Wu Fan Haisheng and others were discussing something in a room.
"I didn't expect Codename Five to be launched so soon. I thought we would have to wait at least another two years." Xu You said.
"Professor Xu, you underestimate the capabilities of our Bincheng Shipyard. At full capacity, our construction speed is world-class. Of course, the most important thing is the nuclear power plant technology that you contributed. Without this technology, even if we build faster, we will still build a conventional-powered aircraft carrier."
Compared with conventional-powered aircraft carriers, nuclear-powered aircraft carriers may not have very obvious differences in combat.
However, the incomparable advantages of nuclear-powered aircraft carriers determine that nuclear power is the only way for the development of aircraft carriers.
"Mr. Fan has said too much. I only designed one of the devices. The entire Code Five was designed by Mr. Fan. The rapid construction of Code Five is inseparable from the efforts of the entire project team."
"Alright, alright, don't be polite, everyone. Everyone deserves credit here. Mr. Fan, the detailed data of Codename Five should be out now, right?"
"Yes. Codenamed Five, it is a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier with a full load displacement of 100,200 to 104,800 tons. The maximum speed is 35 knots, and it can sail indefinitely for at least 25 to 30 years. It can carry 80 military aircraft of various types, and its take-off and landing method is electromagnetic catapult launch and arresting recovery..."
Hearing these data, Xu You and Che Shaozhong were both very excited.
According to such panel data, Code-named Five is enough to be called the world's top nuclear-powered aircraft carrier.
"Great! Having an aircraft carrier like this is an extremely powerful supplement to our naval strength. Compared with the Bald Eagle, our gap is not that obvious."
"Yes. If Code Five performs as well as expected after launching, we can prepare for mass production. In less than ten years at the earliest, the size of our aircraft carrier fleet will catch up with the Bald Eagle."
At this time, Xu You said: "Mr. Fan, before mass production, the aircraft carrier code-named Model 5 must still have room for further optimization. In this regard, I believe I can contribute a little. Catching up with the bald eagle is not our ultimate goal. What we ultimately want to do must be the world's best aircraft carrier."
"Of course, Professor Xu, we will definitely need your help when the time comes . You are an absolute world-class expert in nuclear power plants."
In fact, compared to the first time he came to Bincheng Shipyard, Xu You’s strength has improved a lot.
Even if more important tasks are assigned to Xu You, Xu You can complete them perfectly.
However, in front of Fan Haisheng, Xu You couldn't say too much.
"Professor Xu, Professor Che, I still have some work to deal with, so I'll leave first."
"Well, Mr. Fan, go and do your thing."
After Fan Haisheng left the room, Che Shaozhong said to Xu You:
"Teacher Xu, I have another piece of news."
Although Fan Haisheng is the chief designer codenamed Five, his rank is not as high as Xu You and Che Shaozhong.
There is some information that Fan Haisheng does not have the authority to access.
Che Shaozhong also waited until Fan Haisheng left before he prepared to tell Xu You about this matter.
"Teacher Che, please speak."
"According to the latest news I received, the progress at the Nanjiang Shipyard is also very fast. The construction and testing of Code-named Ship No. 4 has also been completed. If all goes well, Code-named Ship No. 4 and Code-named Ship No. 5 may be launched at the same time."
