After chatting with Qiu Yuluo for a while, Lin Yi left the hotel and went to see Liang Ruoxu.
At home, it was only her, the child, and two nannies.
“You came back early.”
Seeing Lin Yi enter, Liang Ruoxu went to get him some slippers.
“You knew I was back?” Lin Yi said with a smile, “I wanted to surprise you.”
“My grandpa called me during the day and said you got back last night.”
Lin Yi nodded, “After getting off the plane, I went out to eat something. It was too early, and I was afraid of disturbing your rest, so I didn’t come back.”
“I know, come in quickly.”
Liang Ruoxu welcomed Lin Yi in, “You said it was a small matter, so why did it take so long?”
Liang Ruoxu learned some information from Liang Xianghe.
An important artifact was stolen by foreigners, and Lin Yi was responsible for retrieving it.
But from Liang Ruoxu’s perspective, for such a small matter, given Lin Yi’s abilities, it should have been completed in a few days.
But it dragged on for nearly half a month, leaving her a bit uncertain.
“It’s not what you think.” Lin Yi said:
“If I wanted, the task could be completed anytime, but the matter also involved a lot of secret data. I stayed to retrieve that data; otherwise, I would have returned long ago.”
“So that’s how it is.”
“You don’t need to worry about the brigade’s affairs; it’s fine.”
“Your affairs are too complex; even if I worry, there’s no chance.”
Lin Yi smiled and didn’t say anything else but picked up the child playing with toys on the floor and gave several kisses on the cheeks.
Later, Liang Cunxiao and Shen Shuyi came back, and the family dinner officially started.
“How’s your research on carbon-based chips going?” Shen Shuyi asked.
“The lab version is already out, performance has tripled, and we’re undergoing final testing.”
“What about the cost?”
Lin Yi gave a mysterious smile, “Compared to other five-nanometer chips, the cost has dropped by 30%, and our three-nanometer chip is about to be released; that’s the real trump card.”
“If it’s really announced, those on Wall Street might not be able to sit still.”
“Indeed, but it’s still far from enough.” Lin Yi said with a sly smile at Shen Shuyi, “Mom~~~”
Shen Shuyi looked at him defensively, “Need money?”
Lin Yi chuckled, “A mother knows her children best.”
“Tell me, how much do you need?”
“Three years, one trillion.”
“What?” Liang Ruoxu was a bit surprised.
In her eyes, such an investment was already an astronomical figure.
In contrast, Shen Shuyi was very calm.
“Talk first about what you want to do.”
“Right now, only our carbon-based chips are competitive, upstream and downstream industry chains are still lacking. Over time, our chip industry will also be affected, so we need to make both upstream and downstream top-notch to hold the global chip industry in our hands.”
Shen Shuyi didn’t speak, thinking for a few seconds.
“One trillion is too little; add a zero, then it might be possible.”
Ten trillion…
Liang Ruoxu felt their conversation had surpassed her understanding.
Lin Yi sighed in relief, feeling that talking with Shen Shuyi was effortless.
Many things he didn’t say, she already knew what to do.
“It’s impossible to pull out ten trillion all at once, so I plan to use war to support war.” Lin Yi said:
“If this thing is released, for the next three years, we will be invincible, but after three years, we’ll face external forces and internal industry chain limits, so we must start acting now.”
After a pause, Lin Yi continued:
“In the next three years, Lingyun Group can allocate about 400 billion for R&D, which is temporarily enough.”
“I can’t pull out that much money right now, need to go back and study it.”
“Thanks, Mom.” Lin Yi said with a grin.
“Don’t take advantage and play innocent.” Shen Shuyi said:
“Each thing stands alone, you owe us profits, and you have to give them.”
“Of course.” Lin Yi chuckled, “I toast to you.”
