Chapter 254 Nikon

Boss Huang really didn't expect that he would have to rush to Japan again after a few days after returning from the United States.

But for the sake of his own development and for his own lithography machine, Huang He still has to go to Japan.

As many people think, the lithography machine industry has always been the dominant player of Asmay, the Netherlands. In fact, in the early 2000s, the lithography machine industry around the world was dominated by Japanese companies such as Nikon and Canon.

.

In fact, the first batch of lithography machines in the world are Nikon and Canon, because the original lithography machine is actually almost no different from a camera, and even an old-fashioned camera can be slightly modified.

It can become a lithography machine, so there is no threshold for Nikon and Canon to enter the lithography machine industry.

But until 80 years ago, the lithography machine industry was a very small industry. No one would think of the future. Lithography opportunities became an industry that determines the world's science and even the future and destiny of the country.

After all, the global order for lithography machines was only a few dozen units a year, and the volume was too small and it was not enough to eat. At that time, the main markets of Nikon and Canon were still still cameras and cameras with more sales, so it was still

Some lithography machine companies in the United States dominate.

However, with the popularity of the concept of personal computers and the emergence of a series of companies such as Apple and Microsoft, personal computers quickly appeared in every family, which brought huge demand for chips.

The engraving market naturally ushered in a surge in a surge.

This rise continued until 2002, because almost every year there are more different types of electronic products, and every high-end electronic product needs chip support, which leads to the increasing demand for chips in the market.

The bigger the.

Not to mention with the emergence of mobile phones, high-performance chips can dominate the entire mobile phone market. Therefore, by 2002, the market with less than 50 units a year had expanded to about 2,000 units, and each unit was the lowest price.

All are at $10 million.

Nikon and Canon attacked the US market in the late 1980s and ushered in a sharp increase in market share. In the end, Canon and Nikon occupied 30% of the orders in the entire lithography machine industry respectively.

But it is hard to imagine that this market has actually fallen into a stagnation, because lithography machine technology has been unable to break through for more than 10 years, so even the most advanced lithography machine is not as terrifying as it was before.

.

The most advanced 120-nanometer lithography machine now costs only about 40 million US dollars, while 218 nanometers, which is the lithography machine that Huang He wants to buy, is now generally around 15 million US dollars.

This is the price of Nikon and Canon, with a price of $10 million. Only companies like Asmay can take it out. Because their technology is backward and their product quality is far inferior to that of Japanese companies, they can only win by price wars.

Considering that our demand for chips is not that product-grade, buying a cheap ASMA lithography machine is naturally the most suitable choice. But I didn’t expect that ASMA will cut the orders in Jiangnan, Huang He only

I can come to Japan to buy a lithography machine.

In fact, Huang He doesn’t need to come, just send a purchasing manager to buy it directly. After all, the Japanese lithography machines are only a little more expensive, and it’s not impossible to buy them.

Ten lithography machines are only about US$30 million more expensive. Our boss Huang, who spends money, seems to be unable to accept such a price difference.

But the problem is that Huang He really can't accept it. It's fine if he asks others to shear wool, but how can the Japanese cut their own wool? It's absolutely not possible.

Moreover, not only does Boss Huang not intends to let the Japanese cut their own wool, but also needs to cut the Japanese wool in reverse.

So, Boss Huang came to Japan in person and immediately sent an invitation to meet Nikon, the leader of the Japanese lithography machine industry.

"Gangnan Group? Huang He, what kind of company is this?" Seeing this news, Nikon's president Makoto Kimura (Makoto Kimura took office as President Nikon in 2010, but the author can't find the name of the former president

, so just let him take office in advance. It's just a name anyway, so don't care.) Ask the head of his intelligence department.

"Hey! Jiangnan Group is an enterprise from Wenzhou, Zhejiang, China. They started their business with leather goods since the 1980s. In the late 1990s, they became the number one leather manufacturer in Wenzhou. However, because the old president was killed, the new president Huang He took over the position.

, because of their rapid expansion, they suffered a crushing defeat in the leather industry."

"But this new president Huang He is actually a very powerful figure. He pioneered the launch of blind boxes, setting off a blind box trend in China, allowing the company to expand within one year, more than 10 times more

.Along with very mature personal marketing, Huang Se has now become one of the most well-known private entrepreneurs in China, and Jiangnan Group is also one of the top 50 domestic capital companies in China."

"Their current main products are blind boxes, some online products, and game agency business!"

The head of the intelligence department skillfully read out the information they collected about Huang He. It’s not that the intelligence manager is so outstanding that he has information about all the famous entrepreneurs in the world.

But Huang He's letter was passed to President Makoto Kimura through the intelligence department. He thought it was obvious that Makoto Kimura would definitely ask about Huang He's information, so it took two hours in advance.

Time collected and memorized all the information, and finally read it out in front of the boss skillfully.

"Yo Xi!" Kimura Makoto showed a puzzled expression on her face. "A manufacturer of leather goods, blind boxes, and computer games, should he go to Bandai to discuss cooperation. What should he do with us Nikon?"

"Sorry, I don't know, but according to the visiting Mr. Huang He's secretary, Mr. Huang He now has an important intelligence and cooperation related to Nikon's fate in the next 20 years. I hope to have a meeting with you."

"This secretary-general named Hu Jing also said that if you reject President Huang He, then you reject Nikon's future, and they will immediately turn to find Canon!"

"Canon!" Hearing this name, Makoto Kimura's temple couldn't help but jump. He was actually not interested in seeing this Huang He. After all, the business of both parties is not in the same field, and as President Nikon's pride, he is also

He didn't have the interest to see this Huang He at all!"

In Kimura Makoto's opinion, it is enough for any officer or even the minister of his company to be received. It is extremely unequal to appear as if the president of one country is going to meet the mayor of another country.

But when Huang He mentioned Canon, Makoto Kimura had to feel a little uncomfortable.

Huang He said that he had major intelligence to change Nikon's next 20 years, and Makoto Kimura himself did not believe it. How could a backward country have the intelligence to influence top companies in an advanced country?

But what if this person really has any important information in his hands, even if it cannot affect the future of 20 years, it will make Nikon uncomfortable for a year or two?

What if this information falls into Canon's hands again?

So even if Makoto Kimura felt uncomfortable, he still had to consider meeting Huang He.

"You ask him to come to me tomorrow!" Kimura Makoto pondered for a while and said, "No, don't come to the company. You go to the nearby Ginzakaya to book a private room. I will meet him at Ginzakaya tomorrow night."

"Remember, you can't use the company's name, but my personal name!" Kimura Makoto said to the secretary.

"Yes!" The secretary replied respectfully, Makoto Kimura used his personal name rather than the company's name, which shows that Makoto Kimura still believes that Huang He, the boss, is not worthy of meeting him on an equal basis at the company's position level, so he only

Able to meet in a private name.

This way, the conversation between the two is a private conversation and cannot be elevated to the company level. This is a little bit of pride of Kimura Makoto himself.

———————

On the second night, Kimura Makoto met Huang He in this Ginjuku House as promised. Although he was full of pride, Kimura Makoto did not delay a second. Kimura Makoto still abides by this ethics very much.

It is also one of Kimura Makoto's pride.

"Mr. Huang, do you have any important information to communicate with me?" Kimura Makoto sat cross-legged on the tatami, standing straight. Although he was shorter than Huang He, he made a thrust of looking down at Huang He.

.

But the problem is that this momentum seems to be completely useless in front of Huang He, because Huang He just sat lazily on the tatami, his body was very unfair, half leaning against the wall next to him, although he had a smile on his face.

, but it made Kimura Makoto frown, and even a waiter next to him frowned.

This Ginjiu House is a place that many executives of nearby companies often choose. Over time, the waiters here have a higher vision, so they are so lazy like Huang He's sitting posture, just like a playboy, no matter it is Kimura.

A big shot like Makoto or an ordinary waiter is not favored.

However, this waiter also had a very uncomfortable part, that is Hu Jing, the secretary kneeling behind Huang He. Her beauty made the waiter jealous and itchy teeth. Even Makoto Kimura couldn't help but peek at him from time to time. There was no way, this

The woman is so beautiful.

"If he says even a single nonsense, I will turn around and leave immediately!" Kimura Makoto peeked at Hu Jing again, and then said to herself in her heart.

"Five days ago, Asmay from the Netherlands rejected our company's procurement plan!" Huang He said slowly.

Note that this is Huang He who speaks by himself, not through any translational mouth. In other words, Huang He himself actually mastered fluent Japanese.

Ahem, this is mainly due to Huang He's working in Wandai for three years. Because it is a Japanese company, it is inevitable that he has to be exposed to Japanese frequently. In addition, when Huang He was in his second year of junior high school, he did plan to study in Japan.

, has a certain Japanese foundation, so Huang He's Japanese has no problems in daily communication.

As for whether it will arouse suspicion from others, even the person closest to Huang He cannot fully understand Huang He, let alone know that Huang He did not understand Japanese before. After all, Huang He's parents and wife are gone, Leng Zhi

If she didn't have much contact with her brother-in-law before, and Huang He actually spoke Japanese in front of her several times, so she always thought that Huang He knew Japanese...
