The National Chip Company and the Divine Dragon Software Company signed a contract to purchase lithography machines.
The contract signing ceremony was livestreamed.
After the internet media realized the significance of the event, they did special writeups and promoted the livestream.
The press conference, which wasn't widely followed initially, instantly became the top trending topic, surpassing all the other entertainment news.
The number of viewers watching the livestream instantly soared from more than a hundred thousand to tens of millions.
"F*ck, the Divine Dragon Software Company is awesome! They have actually developed a lithography machine!"
"And it's a 7-nanometer lithography machine!"
"The National Chip Company has ordered 47 lithography machines in one go!"
"The performance of the Divine Dragon Model 1 lithography machine is much better than ASML's."
"We've made another major breakthrough in key areas. Congratulations to the National Chip Company and the Divine Dragon Software Company!"
"Awesome, my country is awesome, Divine Dragon Software Company! From now on, we will no longer be held ransom by the chips."
"ASML will be the biggest loser!"
"ASML deserves it. I saw the relevant reports online. They said that ASML's people were very arrogant and deliberately made things difficult for our country's procurement staff. They increased the price of the lithography machine by more than three times and even made many harsh demands."
"Our country can now produce our own lithography machines. We definitely don't want to have any more business dealings with companies with bad service attitudes and commercial credibility."
The netizens were discussing it very enthusiastically. Most of them were very excited and happy. They expressed their blessings and joy in their comments at the bottom of the video.
Some people felt relieved and excited.
In order to import the 7-nanometer DUV lithography machine, the Divine Dragon Country's procurement staff had suffered humiliation and insults.
Even so, they still could not purchase many advanced lithography machines.
Now that the Diviner Dragon Software Company had developed and mass-produced lithography machines, this grievance would become history.
The Divine Dragon people did not need to bow down to anyone just to buy a lithography machine.
At the same time, with the lithography machine, the production of advanced chips could also be localized.
Most chips did not need to be imported and could be produced domestically.
This would change the situation of being held ransom because of the chips.
It could be said that the lithography machine developed and mass-produced by the Divine Dragon Software Company had changed the world order of chip production. It would have a huge impact on the entire information industry.
"I feel so good to see this news!"
"From now on, we won't be controlled by anyone in chip production."
"The 7-nanometer power management chip designed by our company can finally be produced. I want all foreign companies of the same nature to go bankrupt in half a year."
"We're a chip design company. From the looks of it, we don't have to go overseas to beg for help with the chips we design in the future. That's great!"
"The design of our Unisoc 7-nanometer chip has been completed. Its performance exceeds Fire Dragon 888+. It's in urgent need of production!"
"Huawei's 7-nanometer mobile phone chip design is successful. Its performance exceeds that of the M1 chip. We'll immediately contact the National Chip Company to collaborate with them."
"Our Huatian Corporation…"
"We're from Long Xin Chip Company. If the PC processor we designed is designed and produced based on 7 nanometers, its performance will immediately increase to the level of the 11th-generation I5. It can support all software applications. Long Xin and the Divine Dragon System will be paired together, and complete the domestic replacement of the computer. In the future, Windows, Google, Linux, Apple, AMD, Intel won't have a share of this market."
The ordinary netizens were very excited. They were overjoyed that the country had become stronger.
For the relevant companies in the chip industry, they quickly reported the situation to the company's senior management and also contacted the National Chip Company immediately. After receiving an affirmative answer, all the companies were overjoyed.
All along, the relevant companies of Divine Dragon Country were very good at designing. They could design the most advanced chips in the world!
However, what was the use of designing it?
No company in the country could produce advanced chips below 10 nanometers. Foreign chip contracting companies would not produce chips for them at all.
Therefore, even though there were advanced design plans, the production couldn't be carried out. They could only design outdated chips with 14 and 10 nanometer technologies.
In terms of performance, it naturally could not compare to Fire Dragon Company.
Therefore, the chips produced by the Divine Dragon Country could only be used on low-end machines.
After the National Chip Company's batch of lithography machines was put into use, the situation would immediately change.
Not only did the Divine Dragon Country have the ability to design advanced chips, it also had the ability to produce it.
"Good, that's great. From software to hardware! We've replaced all the components of the computer! The safety of the country is finally guaranteed." At the Academy of Sciences, Academician Ji Cheng and Academician Lin Qu were also watching the livestream. After hearing Wang Yizhi's introduction, although they had already known about the situation, they were still ecstatic.
"That's because advanced chips can't be manufactured domestically. The chips we import from abroad consume three trillion yuan a year! In the future, this amount will be greatly reduced, to at least two trillion yuan. If this amount is used to improve the livelihood of the people, it will bring a huge change to the country." The people in charge of the country's trade balance exclaimed excitedly as they watched the livestream.
"Very good. In the future, when Sunset comes to negotiate with us, they will have one less trump card! With our country's current development speed, Sunset will soon run out of tricks!" Some of the senior officials said with a smile after reading the relevant reports.
The entire country was overjoyed because of this seemingly simple press conference.
This livestream was immediately picked up by the intelligence personnel of other countries.
Then, the intelligence personnel forwarded the link to the livestream to their country.
Most countries were shocked when they saw this news. They took the news seriously and reported the relevant information to the highest level without any delay.
"The Divine Dragon Country has made a major breakthrough in the field of lithography machines!"
"The Divine Dragon Country has the production capacity of 7-nanometer lithography machines. We have another option if we need to purchase lithography machines in the future."
"The production capacity of the National Chip Company has been greatly improved. It can now produce more advanced chips. If you need them in the future, you can contact the Divine Dragon Country for the production of chips."
"Sunset is no longer the only player in many aspects! If Sunset can do it, the Divine Dragon can do it too. In the future, please consider all factors carefully in international strategic decisions."
There were also some countries that had a good relationship with the Divine Dragon Country. After hearing the news, they immediately contacted the relevant departments to ask about OEM production and the sale of lithography machines.
There were also a very small number of countries who were very shocked when they heard the news. They found it hard to believe the news!
Especially Sunset and Blue River Country!
