Tu Anbei's eyes lit up and he asked quickly: "What, is Principal Zhou intending to expand Menghai Microelectronics?"

"Let's talk about it later." Zhou Shuo did not answer directly, but turned around to greet Deputy Mayor Liu Yanfeng. Following Zhou Shuo's entourage and civil servants who returned to China, walked into the building.

In fact, even if Liu Yanfeng did not appear, Zhou Shuo would have to invest in the imperial capital. Otherwise, he would just transfer back to Fengtian at the airport instead of staying in the imperial capital. With nearly 200 million US dollars of nearly 2 billion yuan of funds, he would not have placed them in Xiucheng or Bohai Province. On the one hand, the Xiucheng plate is not that big, and the situation in Bohai Province is relatively complicated. According to history, Feng Kaigui from Dagang may take a big step forward. Whether he will hold grudges at that time, Zhou Shuo dares not put his treasure on his generous heart.

In this case, the Imperial Capital ranks higher on his investment list.

The group walked through the old and dim corridor of Menghai Microelectronics office building. Zhou Shuo almost suspected that he had smelled some moldy smell. Finally, although the building was a bit dilapidated, the conference room was very spacious. This was also a feature of the office building in that era. There were many meetings and more people participating, so of course a large conference room was needed.

After leaving Liu Yanfeng in the main seat, Tu Anbei, Zhou Shuo and his entourage sat down on the left, while civil servants sat down on the right. Everything was settled, Zhou Shuo said.

"Mayor Liu, I think the city should know that the industry I am engaged in is a capital- and technology-intensive industry. The biggest advantage of the imperial capital for me is the rich educational and high-tech talent resources here. Therefore, I hope to invest in and build a research center to be responsible for part of the research work of the Panhan Group Research Institute."

"Research Center?" Liu Yanfeng frowned and said, "Mr. Zhou. The imperial capital not only has resources for high-tech talents, but also has rich human resources advantages. I think it is not only a research center, but also a production unit. "

Liu Yanfeng didn't say anything nonsense. In 1995, the wages of workers in the imperial capital were not much higher than those in other parts of the country. If it was an export industry, its human resources did have advantages. But of course, Zhou Shuo could not only look at the current situation. If the manufacturing industry wants to develop local relations, it is inseparable from it. Compared with the relatively simple background of Xiucheng, the environment in the imperial capital is really too complicated.

"Mayor Liu can listen to my ideas first and then make a decision." Zhou Shuo waved to the people below, and a member hurried over.

He ordered to the entourage: "Hang the design drawings of the institute on it, and then take a copy of our plan to Mayor Liu."

"This is the Imperial Capital Research Institute of the Panhan Research Institute, which I plan to invest in and build. The design covers an area of ​​100 acres and the construction investment is 30 million US dollars." At this time, the attendant had already hung up the design drawings of the institute. Zhou Shuo stood up and walked to the booth and continued: "The Imperial Capital Research Institute will involve several aspects. First of all, the design of microelectronics integrated circuits, which has the foundation of Menghai Microelectronics."

Zhou Shuo looked at Tu Anbei and saw him nodding slightly. He obviously didn't mind that Menghai Microelectronics was included in the sphere of influence of the Panhan Group Research Institute.

He pointed to two unique three-story buildings on the design drawing and explained one by one: "Then there is the network direction. In this regard, we will cooperate with the American Liuer Software Company, mainly to provide them with backup technical strength. The software direction will bear the technical support work of American technicians..."

"Why can't we build a building, but we have to build it into a scattered building like this?" Liu Yanfeng asked inexplicably.

Zhou Shuo replied seriously: "This is because the electronics industry is a high-tech industry, and everyone working in the research institute is full of high-tech talents. The Panhan Research Institute hopes to provide them with the best working environment possible."

Liu Yanfeng obviously did not agree with him and said disdainfully: "I think it's the same with building a building. The land utilization rate on this design drawing is obviously not high enough, and one piece in the east and one piece in the west seems like a dog chewing it. Instead of using money to buy land, it's better to build the building higher."

From his perspective, this kind of office building with a future style is indeed not very likable. It not only occupies a large area of ​​high-tech park land, but also has no obvious iconicity. In the eyes of civil servants at this time, only building buildings and high-rise buildings are the manifestations of economic development. Buildings like the Beijing Institute of Panhan Research Institute are too low-key and too stylish.

Others can't go to the Panhan Research Institute to visit when they are fine. They can't judge the land value here by how high or densely the building is? If Zhou Shuo doesn't build a high-rise building, he can't help the surrounding land price increase, so how can he achieve political achievements?

Zhou Shuo was amused and said in embarrassment: "Mayor Liu, this is architectural design, it is art..."

"What art is it? Are tall buildings not artistic enough? Just settled, throw away the broken design, and I will find someone to design a plan for a tall building for you." Liu Yanfeng clearly hoped to promote his ideas, so he even rolled around and cheated.

Zhou Shuo's brows were twitching, and he said with a smile that was even worse than crying: "Mayor Liu, this is a work designed by Mr. I.M. Pei."

"Uh--" Liu Yanfeng seemed to have not heard it clearly, and asked in a daze: "Whose work do you think is it?"

"Mr. Pei." Zhou Shuo nodded vigorously.

I.M. Pei is one of the founders of the Hundred People Association and is known as the "last master of modern architecture". The glass pyramid in front of the Louvre in France is his work. Zhou Shuo also left Yu Qiong's relationship. If she had not taken advantage of her new joining the Hundred People Association, she would have somewhat congratulated gifts and was reluctant to ask for such a set of design drawings. Although it is not the master's pinnacle work, it is definitely not something that can be obtained with money when it comes to the market.

"Oh, you said it earlier!" Liu Yanfeng slapped his thigh and laughed: "It turned out to be Mr. I.M. Pei. I said why the design is so unique!"

Of course, Liu Yanfeng knew who I.M. Pei was. Not to mention the famous Xiangshan Hotel built in 1982, the head office of the Bank of China was closer to the imperial capital, all of which were written by Mr. Pei. If the achievements of members of the Hundred People's Association require a page of A4 paper, then I.M. Pei's achievements are even a page of A4 paper. As a world-renowned architectural design master, I.M. Pei is very famous in China. Moreover, due to his ancestors' relationship, he does not lack reliable political relations in China.

Zhou Shuo burst into tears in his heart. No matter what, Liu Yanfeng is also a deputy provincial deputy mayor. The turn he turned was a bit worse.

He didn't say much on his face and continued without saying a word: "Then I will continue to explain the specific settings of the Beijing Institute of Panhan Research Institute. In addition to integrated circuit design, network and software directions, there will be two key laboratories, namely the nanograting laboratory and the LCD display laboratory."

"Nanoglass?" Tu Anbei frowned and said, "Does President Zhou want to conduct research on lithography machines? But our country currently does not have the basis for research on nanoglass. If you start from scratch, you must spend ten years of hard work."

"Don't worry, Mr. Tu." Zhou Shuo laughed and shouted in English: "Mr. Edward, please come here."

In the team of Zhou Shuo's escorts, a man in his thirties and forties suddenly stood up, wearing a well-rounded suit, with a mid-part hairstyle and handsome face, which made him look a bit quiet and handsome.

Zhou Shuo added a chair beside him and asked him to sit down and said, "This Mr. Edward is a PhD from Stanford University in the United States. His main focus is nanometer measurement technology. Before I left the United States, Professor Zhu Liwen, the director of the physics department of Stanford University, specially recommended him to me."

The word "Doctor at Stanford University" shocked the scene at once. Where is Stanford University? It is the engine of Silicon Valley in the United States! Without Stanford University, there could even be no Silicon Valley, and there was no rapid advancement in American semiconductor technology. Even Tu Anbei would have to look at the doctorate from such places.

"Mr. Edward will be responsible for the establishment of this nanograting laboratory, and I hope that the LCD laboratory can be connected by the city gov and cooperate with the Didu Electronic Tube Factory."

Although the Imperial Capital Electronic Tube Factory seems to be unknown, this company will be the famous "BOE" in the future, the pillar of China's domestic LCD industry! If Zhou Shuo wants to deploy the electronics industry, he will never give up the LCD display market. I believe that with his strong investment, China's future LCD industry will no longer be the world of Koreans.

Zhou Shuo opened the document in his hand until the end of the document continued: "The Beijing Institute of Panhan Research Institute is expected to recruit 1,123 staff members. Among them, 800 researchers are the remaining logistics and management personnel. The construction budget of the entire institute is initially estimated to be more than 80 million US dollars."

"Eighty million US dollars!" Liu Yanfeng excitedly turned the documents in his hand to the end, looking at the detailed expenditure budget. In addition to construction costs, the Beijing Institute will also involve a large number of procurement plans, equipment required by various laboratories, budgets for cooperation with various universities, joint ventures or commissioned research and development costs with the Imperial Electronic Tube Factory...

"Not bad, not bad!" Liu Yanfeng no longer felt that researching everything was not good. Where can a research institute with a scale of thousands be comparable to a manufacturing plant? A factory of the same size requires an investment of up to 10 million US dollars. How can a hundred acres of land be distributed like the Beijing Institute of the Panhan Research Institute, with a total investment of 80 million US dollars?
