Can you make nuclear weapons too?-13

“Welcome, Chairman. Chairman Lee Yong-moon is already waiting.”

A few days later, as promised, Chairman Jin arranged a meeting with Chairman Lee Yong-moon of Samjong Group.

The location is Samyeon Garden in Apgujeong-dong.

It was run by the parents of Ji-hee Kim, who was famous as a golf player at the time, and it was chosen because Chairman Lee Yong-moon particularly liked the food there.

“It’s been a while, Chairman Jin.”

“You haven’t been around for a while, haven’t you?”

The two seemed to be quite close.

Enough to let go of all my worries.

The only worrying thing is that he will also be aware of the rumors about Hyunseung, who has been digging into the business world.

Oddly enough, there was no prejudice in the eyes of Chairman Lee Yong-moon who looked at me.

“The second one that you did a great job this time.”

No, far from prejudice, until he showed a lot of interest.

Apparently, the export of armor-piercing ammunition has eroded public rumors about me much more than I thought.

“Nice to meet you, my name is Hyunseung Jin.”

“Nice to meet you. Still, I really wanted to see your face. Am I the only one, my son is also very interested in you.”

Chairman Lee Yong-moon had only one son.

Lee Young-hoon, who will follow him in the future, will lead the Samjong Group.

He's about thirty years old by now.

As I am of a similar age, there would be nothing particularly strange if they were interested in me.

“By the way, Chairman Jin is doing well these days.”

After a brief greeting with me, he continued chatting with Chairman Jin.

Around that age, from health problems that come and go, to the embarrassment of the economic crisis.

When do you have to hit it?

At this rate, it was an atmosphere that I would not be able to bring out the main topic, so I felt nervous inside.

“So, you want to make MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical Systems) based sensor module?”

As I was slowly looking at the clock, Chairman Lee suddenly looked at me and said,

I wonder if he was paying attention to me throughout the conversation, the direction of the question went straight through the core.

"That's right. It is a module for various sensors that will be used in other weapons, such as gyro and accelerometer, and it will be possible to manufacture it at the current level of Samjeong Electronics.

“If it is a gyro sensor to be used in a weapon, isn’t it usually optical or gimbal? The semiconductor base will probably have problems with accuracy, right?”

“Usually it is, but they are difficult to miniaturize. And for me, there is a way to increase the accuracy, so the semiconductor base is very reasonable.”

“Even so, wouldn’t the process be quite complicated if it was a module? Then, of course, the price will go up.”

“You don't have to worry about the unit price. After all, the price has been set with those factors in mind.”

“That’s good. But in extreme cases, there is a risk that we too will have to set up an independent business unit. Can you take responsibility for that?”

That meant that one-time orders were difficult.

After all, if you have to establish an independent business unit, you can't help but worry about the continuity of the business.

But that point has already been calculated.

“The item I am planning to develop this time is an item that can be exported to the US military, just like the new AP ammunition. No, not just the United States, but any of our allies would be interested. After all, if the US military makes a choice, its reliability is guaranteed. In such a situation, there is no need to worry about the continuity of the business.”

In an instant, Chairman Lee Yong-moon's eyes shook.

Efficacy of precision-guided ammunition to drive a wedge and its demand.

And when he presented more detailed evidence, such as the ripple effect on the military market in the future, his forehead gradually narrowed.

"haha······."

Chairman Lee Yong-moon, who had been listening the whole time, suddenly smiled.

As he tilted his head in his puzzled mind, he let out a long sigh and spit out the words.

“After listening to your story, I suddenly think that our Samjong group may need to organize the defense division.”

“What do you mean all of a sudden?”

“Honestly, who would have thought of making a shell that can counter missiles? This goes beyond being ahead of the numbers and creating the future entirely, so can we compete with you in the future?”

“Even so, if there is no competition, development will be blunt.”

“So, our Samjeong always say they want to be behind you?”

“There is too much income to take care of to be left behind.”

He responded with a small smile to the joke.

But it wasn't just a sound that wasn't on my mind.

After that, he began to complain about the difficulties of continuing the defense industry.

“It’s not that it’s not, there are just one or two things I’m worried about. In addition, compared to semiconductors, the profit is also at a marginal level. To be honest, I don't know why I'm continuing to lead the defense industry."

That part wasn't something to worry about.

After all, it is a historical fact that Samjong Group will hand over the entire defense industry to Jaeuthales after 18 years.

The reason was to focus on semiconductors, which is the mainstay, but I think it was the right choice in terms of efficiency.

“Anyway, accept that request. And if there are any items to be consigned again in the future, then, without having to present your father, please come to me directly.”

His last words were to completely solve my problems.

The sensor is just the beginning, and Samjeong was the only place that could consign the semiconductors needed for future development of various weapons according to my taste, and it was a word that solved that at once.

In particular, considering the gallium nitride devices and military CPUs that my research institute will introduce to the world in the near future, making Samjong open the ‘multi-project wafer’ division is the top priority.

"By the way, I'd love to hear your opinion, if it's not rude."

Chairman Lee Yong-moon suddenly spit out nonsensical words while he was laughing alone.

What are you talking about?

When our eyes met, he spoke again.

“I’m asking if you have any advice on the direction Samjung Electronics should go.”

“Why did you suddenly do that to me?”

“Actually, not long ago, I met the commander of the USFK at a party hosted by Samjong Techwin. At the time, he said, "It's the first time I've ever seen someone who can see the future accurately like you," and he complimented his mouth until his saliva dried up. After all, given the opportunity, I asked this question because I wanted to hear some insight.”

At first glance, it looked like a shaman's guest.

He looked at the president who was slyly in an absurd heart, but he was also just sending his eyes full of curiosity.

“If that’s the case, I want to tell you not to give up.”

“Don’t give up what?”

Chairman Lee Yong-moon looked at him with a look of wonder.

“CPU market. In other words, the Alpha chip being developed jointly with DEC in Samjong. I know that the current DEC is on the verge of being stranded due to poor management, and Samjong almost gave up, but even if it acquires DEC, it must continue to develop CPUs so that Samjong can reign as the true king of the semiconductor industry 20 years from now.

"what······."

He looked at me with his mouth open.

I wondered what he was thinking for a while, and then he let out a long sigh.

“Heh heh, I never thought I’d heard such a story here. However, no matter how great the performance of the alpha chip is, if Microsoft does not agree on compatibility with Windows NT as it is now, it will only be a good piece of shit. Do you know that the DEC eventually got to that point because they couldn’t overcome it?”

“So I suggest you make a more drastic investment decision. We have to convince Maso by all means. If the chairman gives up the alpha chip now, he will have to pour out huge amounts of money to re-enter the market in the future.”

Chairman Lee Yong-moon looked at me blankly.

“Of course, it will not be easy. Microsoft cannot ignore the pressure from Intel, which controls more than 90 percent of the market, and their alliance is quite close. But isn't an alliance in the business world ultimately governed by the logic of money? I think the answer will come eventually if you look for a gap.”

It was a look that was difficult to accept.

No, it looks like he doesn't feel the need for that.

Well, right now, what is the use of emphasizing the importance of system semiconductors to Samjong, whose growth is huge in the memory sector alone?

As history did, he expressed his opinion that he would eventually settle for reality.

“It was an interesting story, but there is no reason for us to make such an irrational number. Anyway, I hope Chairman Jin will be fine. You have a son who is so insightful...to be honest, it makes me want to have him as my son.”

Chairman Lee Yong-moon again tried to continue the conversation with Chairman Jin.

Even though the words were praiseworthy, he seemed disappointed at my advice, which was difficult to accept realistically.

But after hearing the story, you will change your mind.

“Then, how about trying to target the foundry market first?”

"Huh?"

His gaze returned to me again.

I wonder if I thought it was a pretty plausible statement, her eyes are quite bright.

“Anyway, if Samjong leaves the CPU design field, Pepsis can stop worrying about technology leaks, so why not entrust the production to consignment with confidence?”

“There is a possibility. However, most of the places that are worth the money are integrated semiconductor companies like Samjong, and they are ahead of us in the microprocessing field as well. There is no reason for other Pepsis to entrust production to us unless we have a special advantage.”

“Then you can present your merits. For example, they have a process technology that is several steps ahead of the 180-nm process they are developing now.”

“You talk like a dream.”

Chairman Lee Yong-moon spit out a wide smile at those words.

But maybe it's because of my expression that hasn't lost my sincerity until the very end, and soon his face also hardens.

“What if it wasn’t a dream?”

“·················ogue.”

“If, for example, I have a technology that can scale down to 90 nanometers or less called the Demon Wall.”

His eyes staring at me for a moment, as if he were looking at a neighborhood madman.

In fact, it is only in the field of the global semiconductor industry that even the 130-nm process is still in the development stage.

However, I really did have a 90-nm process technology, and I have already demonstrated it through the research lab.

eating.

After making a puzzled expression for a while, he finally let out a smirk.

As soon as his mouth was about to open again, I pulled out a piece of paper I had prepared for today and shoved it in front of him.

"What is this?"

“That is the core conceptual diagram of the technology that has penetrated the 90-nm wall.”

“·················ogue.”

“Perhaps the president is well aware of the limitation of scaling up to 130 nanometers with existing technology. So we overcame the limit by increasing the mobility of the current.”

“Is it solved by increasing the mobility of the current?”

"That's right. Also known as Uni axial strain silicon transistor. I assure you, with this technology, it will be possible to develop a 45-nm process beyond 90 nm without any problems.”

In an instant, Chairman Lee Yong-moon's eyes widened.

Evidence of understanding the meaning.

It seems that the position of the head of the country's best semiconductor company was not given for nothing.

“Hey, you developed this?”

“I must say it was developed by my lab.”

“·················ogue.”

He had a look of disbelief.

After all, it would not be easy to believe that an unknown research institute developed something that even world-class semiconductor companies were hesitant about.

It should be noted, however, that, historically, the emergence of world-shocking technologies has always come from unexpected places.

“Why are you in the semiconductor research lab?”

“It is not necessarily limited to semiconductor research. However, semiconductor design is also one of the main research areas. To add to the explanation, like Samjeong, our institute is full of KAIST graduates.”

Perhaps that was the key point that could dispel doubts.

It means that there is no law that the center of technology must be Samjeong under the same conditions.

As expected, his eyes slowly began to waver, and after a while his gaze looking at me was on the brink of fire.(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

“What are you talking about now?”

Chairman Jin, who had been listening to the story the whole time by his side, sneaked in.

As soon as I opened my mouth for explanation, Chairman Yong-Moon Lee hurriedly stopped Chairman Jin, and he looked straight at me.

“I’m sorry, Chairman Jin……But why?”

“What do you mean?”

“If you have developed such an innovative technology, it doesn’t matter if you enter the semiconductor market yourself.”

“It’s like jumping in. Didn't I tell you a while ago that I have a semiconductor lab?"

"No, I mean, why don't you plan on making your own?"

That's IDM. In other words, it was an idea like the owner of Samjeong, a general semiconductor company.

Considering development and production as inseparable.

But that's because we can't predict how the future semiconductor market will go.

“There is no reason why I need to invest tens of trillions of won to build a factory in the field where there is already a cooperative company called Samjeong. I don’t even have that kind of money.”

“·················ogue.”

“Simply put, it is said that it is better to leave the rice cakes to the rice cake shop.”

“Does that mean that our Samjeong should play the role of foundry? Are you going to be Pepsi?”

“It is correct. In fact, wouldn't it be ridiculous to even set up a factory to procure semiconductor parts that would only be used in weapons? Anyway, I think that if technology has been developed, it will surely be connected to profit, but in the end, it is in line with the philosophy of Pepsi.”

In an instant, his eyes darkened.

anticipation and anxiety. And fear united.

Not wanting to see his expression, he immediately changed the topic by waving the paper I handed him.

“You know what? If this is true, Samjong will be able to build a super-gap in the memory field as well. As you know, microprocessing is not necessarily applied only to the field of system semiconductors.”

“Maybe I don’t know that. That’s why we’re giving the president a chance.”

“I mean, I don't understand that. If you know this fact, why did you choose Samjeong when all the semiconductor companies around the world rush to it?”

“Well, I think it would be better for Korean companies to take the lead in the market first, so the answer to … is too pretentious. To be honest, let me tell the president that I thought I would be able to extort the most money.”

eating.

Chairman Lee Yong-moon laughed again.

Laughter with a different meaning than the first.

Soon he looked at me with a hardened expression on his face.

“This made it clear.”

“·················ogue.”

“It means that you are a person who should never be made an enemy.”

“·················ogue.”
