The rise of nanometers

Huang Xiuyuan, Jiang Hailin and others discussed the details, and then ordered Jiang Hailin to start preparing to establish Fengmin Agriculture.

February 17th.

The affairs in Lu Province have been almost settled, and Huang Xiuyuan is ready to return to Lingnan.

Xiao Yingnan, who had just taken over part of the administrative business, hurried over: "Mr. Huang, Mr. Jiang sent a half-month work briefing with a few important things."

Huang Xiuyuan, who was closing his eyes to rest, said calmly: "Tell me something."

"The first thing is that the number of users of Time Blog reached 61.34 million in the middle of this month."

“The second thing is that Penguin Group’s Penguin Taotao has been completely redesigned and its functions are very similar to our blog.”

Huang Xiuyuan raised his eyebrows and then calmed down.

"The third thing is a software that imitates ours. It was put into internal testing two days ago. The name of the software is Xinlan Blog."

"Oh? New Blue Blog?" Huang Xiuyuan was not surprised. The other party had conducted an internal beta test in advance, so he was probably forced to do nothing by Time Blog.

If it is not launched on the market, it is estimated that the market will be occupied by Time Blog.

"I understand, is there anything else?"

Xiao Yingnan remembered something: "By the way, Real World Publishing House has completed internal integration, and three magazines are currently soliciting manuscripts."

He opened his laptop, logged into the Time Blog, and found the entrance for publishing submissions. The page of Real World Publishing House popped up.

On the main page of Real World, there are a series of sub-items, including: [Utopia Novel Network], [Physical Publishing Submission], [Magazine - Real World Submission], [Magazine - Galaxy Science Fiction Submission], [Journal - Sui Submission to Humanities Journal].

Through the internal account, Huang Xiuyuan looked at some data and found that the number of submissions was not large at present. It was mainly authors signed by the publishing house themselves who were submitting submissions, and some blog users also submitted some submissions.

Especially for the professional journal Suiren Journal, researchers and engineers within Suiren Company are currently submitting articles.

He flipped through the manuscripts submitted to real world magazines, especially the external submissions. After reading a few submissions, Huang Xiuyuan suddenly laughed:

"hehe……"

Xiao Yingnan on the side was confused. Did someone submit a funny article? She glanced at the article and found that there was no funny content. She asked in confusion: "Mr. Huang, is there anything wrong with this article?"

"Yingnan, have you ever heard of a story? An educator once conducted an experiment where he gave Chinese and American children a glass of water and asked them to boil the water without using fire."

"A Chinese child took water and left it in the sun for a day, but it didn't boil. But a smart American child took four cups of 25-degree water and mixed them together, and easily made the water boil to 100 degrees."

At the end, Huang Xiuyuan concluded with a half-smile: "Rigid thinking and backward systems will never be able to cultivate great scientists with innovative spirit."

Isn't this... Xiao Yingnan reacted immediately, four cups of 25 degree water mixed = 100 degree water?

"Now you know why I laughed? Why don't these people's insights be published in science? Maybe they can win a dynamite award and bring glory to China."

Xiao Yingnan couldn't help but laugh.

"A reminder to the person in charge of the publishing house, let them filter out this kind of article. If such an article appears in our magazine, let him pack up and leave."

"Understood, I will convey it later."

Just as Xiao Yingnan left, Zhang Lei came in with his schedule.

After handing over part of the administrative work to Xiao Yingnan, Zhang Lei was responsible for Huang Xiuyuan's schedule, daily chores, and security work.

In fact, this was a last resort, because Zhang Lei came from the army. Although he passed the self-examination and learned administrative management after retiring from the army, it was still a bit difficult to deal with matters that were too professional.

Coupled with the increasing workload of assistants, Xiao Yingnan joined.

"Mr. Huang, the high-speed rail tickets have been arranged. The time is nine o'clock tomorrow morning."

"Well, this is the time."

He called Huang Weichang over again. The work related to Lu Province needed to be closely monitored by the Ministry of Security, so Huang Weichang had to stay for a while.

…

Just when Huang Xiuyuan and others were preparing to return to Lingnan.

After more than a month of struggle, Supor and its parent company Gaul SEB International had to accept the reality.

After all, the nature of Suiren Company makes it difficult for foreign-funded enterprises to get involved.

Without a way to obtain authorization, Supor can only cooperate with three foundries and let them manufacture related products.

Although Supor, which has lost its independent production capabilities, still has a considerable market share, it is really a question whether they can maintain their market share as time goes by.

After all, the three foundries are currently ready to move forward and have plans to launch their own brands.

While Supor was worried.

The SCHOTT (China) headquarters in Suzhou next door is welcoming a team from the Deutsche Corporation.

Duan Mingshan, president of the branch, and Merck Schmidt, the vice president from the headquarters, discussed matters about silicon nano-coating technology.

Duan Mingshan said with a headache: "Merck, I have studied the situation of silicon nano-coating here. Judging from the situation announced by Shandong Pharmaceutical Glass, the key now is not the electroplating process, but the electroplating agent. "

"Is the company still refusing to authorize it?" Merkelschmidt asked.

"Yes, we have offered 30% of the patent fee, but Suiren Company still rejected it."

Merck Schmidt stroked his beard and fell into thinking. He had read relevant reports on new glass. At present, Chinese officials have approved the production and sales of four companies including Shandong Pharmaceutical Glass.

In just over two months, many pharmaceutical companies in China have significantly reduced orders for SCHOTT's pharmaceutical bottles. Shandong Pharmaceutical Glass, which was the first to complete the transformation of its production line, has had a substantial impact on SCHOTT's high-end market.

Unless SCHOTT is willing to engage in a price war, Merkelschmidt understands that a price war is definitely suicidal.

Because medium borosilicate bottles lag behind silicon nanobottles in terms of production cost and performance, and Chinese officials may end up at any time and adopt restrictive regulations to force pharmaceutical companies to use silicon nanobottles.

Now SCHOTT has joined forces with Corning of the United States and Japan Electric Glass to prevent the Xizhou Alliance, the United States, and Japan from approving the sales of silicon nanobottles.

Of course, SCHOTT, Corning, and Electric Glass also know that they cannot stop this matter for long, because the major pharmaceutical giants are not fools.

The use of silicon nanobottles can further improve the quality of medicines. This is basically an irreversible trend unless better products emerge.

It's just that the performance of silicon nanobottles has actually reached its current limit. Better products will definitely not be developed in a short time.

Therefore, SCHOTT's plan is to delay the entry of Huaguo's pharmaceutical glass products while trying to crack the other party's technology.

Just for the raw material of silicon nano-coating - silicon 9, although they got more than ten grams of samples through relationships.

But in the face of this brand-new molecule, SCHOTT's several materials laboratories are now at a loss. In the absence of synthesis processes and detailed parameters, the difficulty of synthesizing silicon 9 molecules is no different from finding a needle in a haystack.

What's more, the silicon 9 molecule is patented and is reverse engineered. It can be used on a small scale in private at most, and it needs to be put into mass production unless they slap themselves in the face.
