Chapter 409: Chapter 258: Ace Mechanical Engineering Team (Second Update, Subscribe Please)_1

After Ding Yue had settled the military order and the order for the 7nm GaN chip he needed with the CEO of Guoxing Technology, Wang Liwu, he left An Yujia in charge of the specific details, such as payment.

Ding Yue would need to provide Guoxing Technology with the authorization to manufacture chips using GaN semiconductor material technology.

The next day, Ding Yue was interviewed by NTS News and Mist City Television. The Xia Country Academy of Semiconductor Material Research also officially announced today that honorary researcher titles had been bestowed on Ding Yue, Zhou Wen, Shen Congde, and Wang Shangzhong.

For a time, Ding Yue’s reputation could be said to have reached a peak.

This wave started with obtaining the [GaN Semiconductor Material Technology] from the system reward, leading to the successful development of this technology.

In addition to financial gains, Ding Yue also achieved an increase in his personal reputation and that of Mist City Arts and Science University.

From this point on, most private universities in the country could no longer compare to Mist City Arts and Science University.

After a few days, the research results’ popularity decreased.

However, Ding Yue didn’t see another wave coming. Incredible!

Another trending topic involving Mist City Arts and Science University appeared.

One day,

Ding Yue was in his office discussing significant aspects of establishing a lithography equipment experiment project with Luo Peng and Su Beilin.

Luo Peng and Su Beilin had spent the better part of a month drafting a plan for a lithography machine experiment project, which they presented to Principal Ding today.

"So, considering the costs of equipment, materials, etc., the estimate is a budget of one billion, maybe even more?"

After reading the relevant proposals, Ding Yue couldn’t help exclaiming in his heart that developing and manufacturing lithography equipment was indeed a tremendous financial investment.

Even though Ding Yue had already provided the members of the prospective optics technology experiment project team with the relevant technology, Luo Peng and Su Beilin’s proposal showed that to produce a top-notch lithography machine, a lot of money must be burned.

"This is just the initial investment in research and development," Luo Peng sighed.

Hearing this, Ding Yue couldn’t help but frown. Thinking for a moment, he then turned to Luo Peng and Su Beilin and asked, "Alright, so let’s take things one step at a time. If we first invest 200 million yuan, can we start researching in the areas of optics and precision mechanical processing?"

"Of course, we can take it step by step. After all, the lithography machine project is too expensive. It’s unrealistic to do it all at once without state support."

Su Beilin nodded and replied.

"Then that’s fine. Based on the proposal you drafted, the university will establish a lithography machine experimental project base and invest two hundred million yuan as an initial R&D investment,"

Ding Yue calculated.

He still had more than 300 million yuan left over, as the bulk of the more than one billion yuan he had before was already set to be invested in the expansion project of Mist City Arts and Science University.

What remained was over 300 million yuan reserved for potential other projects or the like.

However, these remaining funds couldn’t all be invested into the lithography machine experiment project at once – he decided to invest two hundred million yuan first, saving 100 million yuan for later.

After all, the university’s expansion project and the lithography machine experiment project would not be completed in a short time – it could easily take two to three years, so this was a long-term operation that could not be rushed.

In that case, the lithography machine experiment project should gradually receive investment according to its needs, allowing Luo Peng and Su Beilin to proceed with their research.

In the future, Mist City Arts and Science University would receive over one billion yuan in tuition fees every year, plus the income from Ding Yue’s Feiyue Group’s commercialization of medical health robots and GaN semiconductor materials would increase.

In addition, Ding Yue believed that the animated film "Super Combat Team" produced by Mist City Arts and Science University could also generate profit.

At that time, all the money earned could be invested into the lithography machine experiment project.

"Alright, Principal Ding, we will first set up preliminary research in the fields of optoelectronics and precision machining, solving some of the more straightforward problems first."

Luo Peng shared his thinking.

"You guys can check if the Mechanical and Optoelectronics departments at Mist City Arts and Science University have the people you need."

Outstanding students from Mist City Arts and Science University were available for Luo Peng’s selection.

Once Luo Peng makes his choice, Ding Yue could give them the [Lithography Manufacturing Process Technology], allowing the excellent students from related majors at Mist City Arts and Science University to become talents who can contribute to the lithography machine experiment project.

The lithography machine experiment project that Mist City Arts and Science University wants to establish is a huge project, far more complicated and difficult than the previous "Big White" medical health robot project.

So, the human resources and materials to be invested should also be substantial.

Ding Yue spent another half an hour discussing with Luo Peng and Su Beilin, then he signed the "Mist City Arts and Science University Lithography Experiment Project Plan".

"Well, I – as the Principal, will make a brief announcement, our lithography experiment project of Mist City Arts and Science University, is officially established now. Luo Peng, Su Beilin, you both go and prepare. I will have my sister Ding Xiaoyou join after her military training is over."

After Ding Yue made the announcement, he let Luo Peng and Su Beilin get to work.

Luo Peng and Su Beilin were brimming with enthusiasm. They were in charge of the precision machinery processing field of the lithography machine, and would establish a team responsible for the research and development of precision machining of the lithography machine with Tong Yihang, Liu Tiefei, Yang Jie and Professor Li Shengbin.

This team collected the top talents of mechanical engineering from Mist City Arts and Science University and was also endowed with the [Lithography Manufacturing Process Technology] by Ding Yue, making them an ace team.

And this team should expand every year since the Department of Mechanical Engineering of Mist City Arts and Science University is always adding new students. The number of mechanical students this year far surpassed that of last year.

With so many mechanical students benefiting from the [Academic Overlord Totem] study BUFF effect provided by Ding Yue, wouldn’t some excellent student talents like Tong Yihang, Liu Tiefei, and Yang Jie emerge?

You should know that because of the influence of Big White the robot, the Department of Mechanical Engineering has now become one of the key departments of Mist City Arts and Science University.

After discussing the establishment and preliminary plans of the Lithography Experiment Project, Luo Peng and Su Beilin went to prepare for relevant work.

After Principal Ding finished his discussion, Wen Ruohan carefully stepped forward, handed her mobile phone to Principal Ding: "Principal Ding, look at this trending topic, our university’s National Arts course has been dissed."

"What?"

Upon hearing this, Ding Yue couldn’t help raising his eyebrows and looked at the phone screen Wen Ruohan handed over.

On Twitter, a post states that some Thai Boxing master in the country said the so-called National Arts are merely a sham and those practitioners are all good-for-nothings? He even said that he would be confronting a so-called master of National Arts today, aiming to knock out this master like what happened to Master Ma.

Who is this arrogant guy?

As Ding Yue scrolled through Twitter, he couldn’t help but mumble: "This tarnishing statement, how can it implicate our Mist City Arts and Science University? Who is this person on Twitter called [24k Kai]?"

Because this [24k Kai] on Twitter claimed that all the National Arts in the country are junk and all its practitioners are good-for-nothings.

What the hell.

Ding Yue’s Mist City Arts and Science University has set up a National Arts course, and there are quite a few students who practice it every day, they are quite impressive. However, this guy who learns Thai Boxing calls them all junk and good-for-nothings?

"Principal Ding, this man’s name is Zhao Kai, he practices Thai Boxing, and has won many boxing matches!" Wen Ruohan explained to Principal Ding.

While Principal Ding was discussing with Luo Peng and Su Beilin, Wen Ruohan took the time to look up Zhao Kai, who is a Thai Boxing master in the country, that has attended numerous competitions and achieved remarkable results.

"Oh, I thought he was from Thailand, but he is actually from our Xia country?" Upon hearing this name, Ding Yue couldn’t help but feel amused.

A person from Xia Country practices Thai Boxing in Xia Country and said that Xia Country’s National Arts are rubbish, this...

Does he actually admire those in Southeast Asia and Thailand so much? Looking down on Xia Country’s National Arts!

"The reason why this guy is so arrogant, is mainly because Master Ma’s defeat last time was too humiliating."

Wen Ruohan, who was aware of the incident with Master Ma, gave a brief analysis.

Because that’s what the netizens were saying online.

After Master Ma was knocked out last time, many people studying Taekwondo and Thai Boxing despised National Arts. This feeling intensified until the trending topic of Zhao Kai directly stating that the National Arts were junk and trash appeared.

The most important thing is that Zhao Kai has called out a Xingyi Fist master named Wu Changying today; Is he really trying to further discredit National Arts?

"Those so-called National Arts masters are indeed charlatans." Ding Yue shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly.

That Master Ma didn’t seem to have any real skills at all. It was normal that he was knocked out with one punch, but the problem was that he lost the face of National Arts altogether.

Now anyone can come up and make a mockery of the National Arts.

However, the National Arts that Ding Yue encountered were not as rubbish. Just like the last time he was competing with a student who studied Tai Chi, Ding Yue was easily knocked down.

"Principal Ding, the Xingyi Fist master that Zhao Kai is challenging today is called Wu Changying, huh? Why does that name sound so familiar to me?"

As Wen Ruohan was speaking, she couldn’t help frowning, feeling that she had seen this familiar name somewhere.

"Wu Changying..."

Ding Yue muttered, then opened his computer web page to search for this person to see if he was a fake master like Master Ma, but the next second, Ding Yue seemed to recall something: "Wu Changying...What’s his relationship with our Institute of Traditional Chinese Studies’ head, Wu Changdao?"
