Whatever this boss Zhou Andong said was what it was, Liu Qingjun naturally wouldn't object.

"Should the second phase of the research institute project start ahead of schedule?"

Zhou Andong nodded, the total construction area of the research institute was now 84,000 square meters.

He thought it would be enough for the time being, at least there would be no need to start the second phase of the project within three years.

But what no one expected was that the old director was so capable.

The total number of R&D personnel had exceeded 3,000, excluding the office floor, the laboratories built in the first phase were barely enough.

In the future, joining Yuzhou Technology, there would definitely be no shortage of teams like Professor Huang Lingyi.

Therefore, the second phase of the project must be started ahead of schedule, otherwise, when people came, there would be no laboratory to use, which would be embarrassing.

"Start the second phase of the research institute project in the spring of next year, with a total construction area of 200,000 square meters, which will be enough for the time being."

Zhou Andong's plan now was to keep up with the future Huawei, build a super R&D base, and have more than 100,000 R&D personnel.

However, to reach such a scale, it must be a long process, taking at least ten or more years.

The second phase of the research institute project was determined, and Liu Qingjun asked again: "When will the VCD advertisement be launched?"

Zhou Andong said: "The 12th, which is tomorrow."

Liu Qingjun said with some worry: "Our Yuzhou VCD will be officially listed on the 16th, and the goods have already been laid out, launching the advertisement on the 12th is a bit late."

"Not late." Zhou Andong said with a smile: "Now several major brand VCDs like Sony, Panasonic, and Siemens have already been listed, and the advertisements are bombing in turns, our advertisement being early or late is about the same."

Liu Qingjun nodded, since Zhou Andong said so, he also felt relieved.

"Wan Yan is priced at 4688, and those electronic giants like Sony, Panasonic, and Siemens are priced between 4999-5599. We are priced at 3266, is it a bit low?"

"Not low!" Zhou Andong shook his head: "We want to use the low price to quickly occupy the market, and within a year, bring the VCD price down to under 3000."

Liu Qingjun asked: "When will the 1.1 version be listed?"

"New Year's Day next year." Zhou Andong took out a cigarette, threw one to Liu Qingjun, and lit one himself: "Release the 2.0 version in August next year to occupy the high-end market."

Liu Qingjun took out a lighter, lit the cigarette, and stood up: "Nothing else, I have to go back."

"Alright!" Zhou Andong waved his hand: "I won't see you off."

"Ding-a-ling..."

Liu Qingjun had just left when the phone on the desk rang.

Zhou Andong picked up the phone, and Tian Zhuang's voice came from the receiver.

"Chairman, there's a bit of a problem."

Zhou Andong asked strangely: "What problem?"

Tian Zhuang told the story: "A living person, just disappeared inexplicably, and hasn't been found for more than two hours, I suspect they want to make trouble."

Zhou Andong smiled: "You arrange for a few people to go find him, just go through the motions. If he really had an accident and died, that would definitely be a blessing for us brewers."

Tian Zhuang also laughed: "Alright, I'll arrange for someone to go find him right now."

Zhou Andong hung up the phone, and Jian Qiu walked into the office with a bag of fruit.

"Seeing you beaming, is there any good news again?"

Zhou Andong nodded: "Have you heard of Professor Huang Lingyi?"

Jian Qiu put the fruit bag on the coffee table: "Back then, in order to break through the bottlenecks in the 'Two Bombs, One Satellite', the country established the Second Department of the Computing Institute, specializing in microcomputers and transistors and other projects.

This was China's first chip research team, and Professor Huang Lingyi was the team leader. In the absence of data, equipment, talent, and materials, she led the team members to work hard and successfully developed semiconductor transistors.

And what made me know her was a sentence she once said: The greatest wish of my life is to crawl on the ground and wipe away the shame on the motherland."

Zhou Andong smiled, from diodes, transistors, microcomputers, large-scale integrated circuits, to China's first independently researched and designed CPU chip, Professor Huang Lingyi witnessed and participated in the development process of China's microelectronics industry from nothing to something.

In 2002, the first general-purpose CPU 'Loongson 1' was successfully developed, although there was a big gap in performance, it truly broke the history of domestic computers having no chips to use.

In less than ten years, a large number of domestic high-performance chips such as 'Loongson 3' emerged as the times required, and the 'Fuxing' train achieved 100% domestic production.

There were also advanced military equipment such as the J-20, and the supporting phased array radars, all of which were replaced with their own hearts. The BeiDou satellite was also equipped with a Chinese chip, completely breaking the Western technological blockade.

In the arduous exploration that lasted more than half a century, the chip people represented by Huang Lingyi, from diodes, transistors, microcomputers, large-scale integrated circuits, etc., broke through thorns and thorns all the way, and built China's own chips.

This counterattack and breakthrough can be described as "entrusted at the time of defeat, ordered at the time of danger, sticking to it under setbacks, and rising in unyielding."

"Next year, Professor Huang Lingyi will bring her team to work at Yuzhou Technology."

"This is a good thing."

Jian Qiu took an orange out of the plastic bag, peeled it, broke off two petals, and stuffed them into Zhou Andong's mouth.

"How could the Computing Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences let people go?"

"I really don't know this." Zhou Andong shook his head: "However, I reckon that Professor Huang has research topics, but there is no money above, or it is not supported. It just so happens that the old director extended an olive branch, so Professor Huang brought the team over."

"This probability is very high." Jian Qiu nodded, and sent a petal of orange into her mouth: "I want to eat hot pot, let's go eat it tonight."

"Alright!" Zhou Andong agreed: "It's been a long time since I got together with Weimin, call him and Bai Ying, and Yao Jun and his wife, let's have a drink together."

Jian Qiu nodded: "You handle it, anyway, just let me eat hot pot tonight."

Zhou Andong laughed, just as he was about to say something, the phone rang.

Picking it up, Gu Qing's voice came from the receiver: "Chairman, the General Manager of Fuyao Glass wants to come to Jiangzhou in person to see you."

"Fuyao Glass?"

Zhou Andong froze for a moment, and then reacted.

The headquarters of Xiangjiang Qiudongfang, the outside is a glass curtain wall, but how did Fuyao Glass know?

"How did Fuyao know that we need glass?"

"I'm not very clear either." Gu Qing said: "However, this is not important, I inquired a bit, although Fuyao Glass hasn't been established for long, the quality is no worse than the French CFEM company."

The glass curtain wall of the Shanghai International Trade Building, which was built and put into use in 1991, was designed and supplied by the French CFEM company.

So Zhou Andong thought that the glass curtain wall of the Xiangjiang Qiudongfang headquarters building should also be found from the French CFEM company.

To tell the truth, he really forgot about Fuyao, and he didn't know which year Fuyao was established, so he didn't think about Fuyao at all.

Since Fuyao took the initiative to contact, if it could meet the requirements, Zhou Andong would naturally support it.

And at this time, Fuyao had only been established for a few years, and it should be in a difficult time.

If he could help, he would help, while supporting domestic products, he could also sell Boss Cao a favor, why not do it.
