Chapter 313 The importance of optical technology
CZA, founded in Prussia, possesses irreplaceable core technologies in the field of optics.
No matter in the past, present or future...
The company has always been a giant that cannot be ignored in the field of optics.
Because of the war, CZA was split into two.
Even though the company was split into two, it did not affect their respective technological development in the field of optics.
The only difference is.
The Western world has gradually begun to pay attention to the interaction between optical technology and lithography machines.
in contrast.
From the time the Soviet Union became a superpower until now, it has never paid too much attention to lithography machines and semiconductor chips.
of course.
The Soviet Union did not really not attach importance to chip technology, but it took the wrong path several times in a row and lost a lot of valuable development time.
Compared with chips, electron tubes have many problems.
Too large in size, high in power consumption and short in service life.
Once put into military use, it is extremely susceptible to interference.
As early as the early 60s, the Soviet Union's electronics industry department had issued a document.
Comprehensively develop the electronics industry and master modern integrated circuit technology.
While developing electron tubes, we also focused on the research and development of transistors.
There is nothing wrong with the spirit of the document. The problem is that the Soviet officials overlooked an important thing.
Precision.
The biggest feature of the chip is its precision.
Same restrictions as for Dragon Nation.
The West has consistently restricted the flow of high-tech equipment into the Eastern bloc, including the Soviet Union.
The Soviet Union tried every possible means but was unable to obtain semiconductor equipment and materials that met the technical standards.
In desperation, the Soviet Union began to work behind closed doors.
Develop and design chips independently.
After experiencing many failures and the fact that the chip accuracy could not be improved, the Su Meng decisively gave up researching electronic chips.
Continue to work on the electron tube.
The different attitudes of the two major camps in the East and the West towards lithography machines and chips directly affect the degree of importance they attach to the two CZA companies.
"Deputy Minister Huang, this is what I think. If we want to successfully acquire the CZA company in East Prussia, it is not enough to just have money."
"On the premise of paying the purchase price, we need to work on another aspect to increase the chances of success of the acquisition."
Lin Kaifeng said seriously: "In other words, we have to make preparations for both scenarios to ensure that this acquisition can only succeed and not fail."
Without waiting for Deputy Minister Huang to ask, Lin Kaifeng gave all his thoughts.
Taking advantage of the Soviet Union.
To persuade the Soviet Union is to persuade the East Prussian officials.
It is undeniable that the economic situation in the Eastern Bloc countries is not optimistic.
But no matter what, as long as the Soviet Union does not collapse, the countries in the Eastern Bloc will not be at the end of their rope.
In order to successfully acquire the CZA company in East Prussia, it is necessary to not only put up a certain amount of funds, but also get the Soviet Union's promise.
East Prussia was not only an important member of the Eastern Bloc, but also the closest ally to the Soviet Union among its many allies.
No matter what kind of evil deeds the Soviet Union committed that angered the people, East Prussia would stand firmly behind the Soviet Union and cheer for it.
Back then, the Soviet Union brazenly invaded other countries.
Among the many allies, only four countries consistently supported the Soviet Union.
The country ranked first among them is East Prussia.
If the Soviet Union does not agree to this acquisition, even if Lin Kaifeng's Northern Machinery Group takes out 10 billion or 20 billion US dollars, it will not be able to obtain the ownership of CZA from East Prussia.
Deputy Minister Huang sighed and said, "You are right. The Soviet Union's control over East Prussia is comprehensive. In many aspects, including culture, economy, education, and military, East Prussia must obey the arrangements of the Soviet Union."
"The Soviet Union's attitude is far superior to East Prussia's own ideas. Continue to tell us your ideas. How can we take advantage of the Soviet Union to increase our success rate of acquisition?"
Lin Kaifeng smiled coldly and said, "The Soviet Union has long had a top-heavy problem, focusing only on heavy industry and neglecting the development of light industry. The domestic light industrial products are in short supply, which is a well-known fact."
"A few years ago, the Soviet Union launched an aggressive war, which made the domestic supply of materials even worse. In view of the imbalance in the development of light and heavy industries in the Soviet Union, we have a way to pull the Soviet Union to our side and force East Prussia to sell CZA to us at a low price."
Lin Kaifeng immediately changed the subject.
The topic of acquiring CZA was shifted to oil.
The United States has been strengthening its relations with desert countries in recent years.
One of the goals is to obtain large amounts of cheap oil and maintain the United States' status as a superpower.
Secondly, a swift blow was dealt to the Big Bear Country’s oil exports.
Oil is the most important channel for the Soviet Union to earn foreign exchange.
The profits from oil-related foreign exchange earnings have decreased due to global oil prices.
The domestic economy of the Soviet Union will also suffer a blow.
Upon hearing this, Vice Minister Huang's expression changed noticeably.
"Comrade Lin Kaifeng, you really impressed me. Before, I only thought you were a foreign exchange earner and an expert in business development. Now it seems that I really underestimated you."
"Your abilities in other areas are equally impressive."
"There is such a clear understanding of the international situation and the competition between the two powers."
Vice Minister Huang's praise for Lin Kaifeng was without any exaggeration.
Lin Kaifeng is indeed a talent.
Top leaders of all countries are aware that the United States’ suppression of global oil prices is mainly aimed at the Soviet Union.
Every oil crisis that brought about a rise in global oil prices would bring the Soviet Union unprecedented oil profits.
If global oil prices continue to fall, the economic situation of the Soviet Union will become increasingly unfavorable.
For the Soviet Union, falling global oil prices were the last thing they wanted to see.
For the United States, it is a great benefit with huge profits.
Lin Kaifeng continued, "The more problems the Soviet Union faces, the greater the chances of our acquisition of CZA being successful. Deputy Minister Huang, you should remember what I just said, that what the Soviet Union lacks most is light industrial products."
"Including food, various types of clothing, entertainment products..."
Deputy Minister Huang couldn't help but say, "Comrade Lin Kaifeng, wait a minute, the entertainment products you mentioned, are they your group's home game consoles?"
"Yes, the game console."
Lin Kaifeng said without hesitation: "The goods I mentioned are currently in urgent need of supplies by the Soviet Union. As time entered the 80s, the United States began to win us over to fight against the Soviet Union together."
"Since the death of Su Xunzong, the Soviet Union has changed dynasties, and the new leader is also trying to ease relations with us. It is no exaggeration to say that the importance of our Dragon Country has never been as prominent as it is now."
The acquisition of CZA is not only a business, but also a game of interests between countries.
The Soviet Union valued electron tubes and despised semiconductor chips.
Even though CZA is one of the largest companies in the Eastern bloc, it still does not receive enough attention.
It will naturally be easier to acquire a company that is not valued.
