Chapter 508: Chapter 508: The Lithography Plant Seems Unreliable

Chen Yiyang arrived in the Imperial Capital once again.

This visit to the Imperial Capital was primarily for discussions he had earlier with people from Longxin about establishing a lithography factory.

However, upon his arrival and after consulting with some industry experts, he realized.

The lithography factory recommended to him earlier seemed somewhat unreliable.

This technology indeed had a theoretical proposal, with the principle of using a cannon to shoot a mosquito to manufacture chips.

But upon further implementation, it becomes clear.

If a cannon can accurately hit a mosquito, the technology behind it renders the use of a cannon unnecessary for such precision.

Unless the mosquito is tied up and placed directly on the target for the cannon to hit.

But this is impossible in reality.

"So, the lithography factory is just a gimmick?"

"It can basically be viewed that way. However, we cannot dismiss the possibility of it eventually being realized.

But in the field of lithography machines, the likelihood of success with a large-scale lithography factory is significantly lower than with other approaches."

I see.

Chen Yiyang immediately abandoned the idea of investing in a lithography factory.

After all, investing in this would require a massive amount of funding.

If it fails, it would be tantamount to creating a useless industrial marvel.

On a national level, it would be a huge loss, and for an individual, it would be devastating.

"If you really plan to invest in lithography machines, you could directly invest in the current mainstream ultraviolet EUV lithography machines."

"This technology was also first developed abroad, wasn’t it?" Chen Yiyang asked.

"Yes, because foreign countries developed this technology and proved its feasibility, we chose to follow their lead.

In terms of lithography machine technology, there is essentially no need for a circuitous surpass.

Because the technical route has been proven to be very mature, and the ceiling of this technology is limited by current materials and theories, it has basically reached its peak. We only need to continue researching along this technological path, and we will eventually develop the lithography machine; it’s only a matter of time."

In terms of the most advanced industrial technology, any shortcut is inferior to following an existing mature technological framework, steadily accumulating technology, and ultimately using better optimization to defeat competitors.

Things like a lithography factory sound promising, but should they fail, the consequences would be unbearable.

Thus, Chen Yiyang gave up on the idea of toiling over a lithography factory, and instead, he honestly sought to connect with domestic companies already researching and manufacturing ultraviolet EUV lithography machines, investing billions to acquire a stake.

If they succeed in the future, he could potentially market those shares.

If they fail, the loss wouldn’t be too substantial.

Originally, Chen Yiyang had set aside a few weeks thinking he would prepare to establish a lithography factory in the Imperial Capital.

Now that the lithography factory plans fell through, he found himself rather idle.

However, he had quite a few friends in the Imperial Capital, so he decided to reconnect and socialize with old friends.

"Chen, our series Minning Town is recently a huge hit online. We’re planning a celebration party; would you like to come?"

"Sure."

The person speaking with Chen Yiyang was Hou Liang from Afternoon Sunshine.

Previously, Chen Yiyang helped Rao Zhi find filming locations for Homecoming. Since they couldn’t go abroad, they filmed on the Northwest’s Gobi desert.

Because he owed a favor, he helped the Northwest government shoot a poverty alleviation TV series to repay the debt.

Originally, it was merely a political task, with Chen Yiyang providing the funds and Afternoon Sunshine putting in the work. The post-production success wasn’t critically important.

But Afternoon Sunshine’s team worked diligently and remarkably turned the series into a masterpiece.

Now, it’s a massive hit across the internet, with even state media unable to resist writing consecutive reports.

Afternoon Sunshine is quite pleased. This series brought them to prominence, allowing for more future collaborations with official bodies.

Naturally, Chen Yiyang benefitted as well; following the series’ hot broadcast, he hadn’t yet learned of it.

His team had already started marketing Chen Yiyang as the investor.

As for the investment reason, it was naturally cited that he was moved to tears upon seeing reports on Northwest poverty alleviation and thus volunteered funds to help produce the series.

By the time Chen Yiyang knew about it, marketing articles praising him were already all over the internet.

This couldn’t be said to be Chen Yiyang being shameless; rather, it’s inevitable that with money, reputation must follow to avoid many troubles.

Had it not been for these crafted deeds, ALi’s targeted hunting against Chen Yiyang wouldn’t be so timid and evasive, limited to covert actions.

Chen Yiyang doesn’t currently have to worry about being legally cornered by anyone.

With his current reputation, even if someone wanted to prosecute him, it would have to be on a well-evidenced, airtight case.

Afternoon Sunshine’s celebration party was set in a high-end hotel.

Chen Yiyang invited friends like Rao Zhi and Gong Fan to join them.

"Shen Teng, what brings you here?" Chen Yiyang unexpectedly spotted Shen Teng greeting others at the party.

"Originally, I didn’t intend to come, but once I heard you’d be here, Chen, I hurried over," Shen Teng immediately joked with Chen Yiyang.

"Let’s be serious," Chen Yiyang patted Shen Teng’s shoulder, "Was there a good project you didn’t include me in?"

Chen Yiyang figured this because Shen Teng and Afternoon Sunshine weren’t in the same circle.

His sudden appearance at the celebration was likely indicative of seeking a collaboration.

"What you said, only I could exclude you from a good project, how could it be the other way around?" Shen Teng joked a bit before continuing seriously, "I’m actually here to connect with people at Afternoon Sunshine, and hopefully, if there’s a serious drama in the future, I could be cast as a lead."

"Are you serious?" Chen Yiyang looked at Shen Teng’s face and said, "Whenever I see your face, I just want to laugh. You appearing in a serious drama, are you sure it won’t turn into a comedy?"

"I do have my ambitions," Shen Teng hurriedly said, "My goal is to be a good actor, but I can’t always stick to comedies. Honestly, Chen, if there’s another project like this, please consider me."

"Alright." Chen Yiyang saw that Shen Teng wasn’t joking and could only nod.

Indeed, good actors are never satisfied.

Even being number one in comedy wouldn’t suffice; Shen Teng’s greatest desire was to be recognized as a good actor rather than just a good comedic actor.

The distinction is significant.

Many young idols and stars often claim they want to be good actors but exclusively choose roles in idol dramas; such performances, even repeated a million times, never make them good actors.

After chatting a bit at the party, Chen Yiyang received a call, so he left the hall to find a corridor to take the call.

In this corridor were two women standing in a corner chatting when they spotted Shen Teng exiting from the hall. They went directly to Chen Yiyang to ask, "Is the Afternoon Sunshine’s celebration party happening inside?"
