Chapter 633: Chapter 279 United Fleet_2 Chapter 633: Chapter 279 United Fleet_2 China was so dependent on importing chips that once The United States of America imposed a ban on chip sales to China's major enterprises, these enterprises would immediately go bankrupt. It's easy to imagine just how strong China's desire for chip production capacity was. Now Yan Fei had actually offered two chip production lines to China, and these were not just any lines, but much more advanced 5nm chip production lines than the existing technology. With these two production lines, China could immediately start manufacturing the world's leading chips, breaking through the technological blockade imposed by the United States and other high-tech countries. They could achieve self-sufficiency and no longer be strangled at will by others.

Hearing Lu Pingping's questioning, Yan Fei just laughed and said, “Although these two 5nm chip production lines are important, I think it's a good deal if I can use them to obtain the commitment I need.”

Tears appeared in Lu Pingping's eyes as she said, “It would be fine if you used them to exchange for some practical conditions, but all you got for your two most advanced 5nm chip production lines was a chance to review my father's case. Are you crazy?”

During the just-concluded negotiations, Yan Fei had offered two of the latest technology 5nm chip production lines as a donation to the nation. However, Yan Fei also put forward a condition, which was for the country to immediately initiate a review of the case involving Lu Pingping's father, Lu Shuchun. Lu Pingping had expressed her opposition at the time, but Yan Fei firmly refused her objections.

Lu Shuchun was Lu Pingping's father and also the Vice Chancellor of Zhendan University. The Genius Class that Yan Fei attended in China was initiated by Lu Shuchun, and all the students of the Genius Class were true geniuses. Just to let his daughter Lu Pingping also enter this Genius Class, Lu Shuchun made an opening by bringing Yan Fei, an ordinary person, into the Genius Class and then got his daughter in. After all, the experience of the Genius Class would endow Lu Pingping with the aura of a prodigy and give her a head start in life.

Students from the Genius Class had bright futures ahead, but in their senior year, Lu Shuchun was suddenly investigated for financial issues by higher-ups and thrown into jail, sentenced to life imprisonment by the court. Because of Lu Shuchun's imprisonment, Lu Pingping's mother died from shock, leaving Lu Pingping alone. Lu Pingping's life turned upside down overnight, falling from the favored daughter of heaven to someone shattered by family tragedy, plummeting into the depths of fate.

Due to Lu Shuchun's downfall, the Genius Class he was responsible for became the target of criticism. Some felt that Lu Shuchun had squandered national resources to create a useless venture, so the Genius Class was shut down, the students were forced to be transferred to regular departments to continue their studies and graduate as ordinary individuals.

The financial issues surrounding Lu Shuchun were not serious; even if he were caught, he wouldn't have to sit in prison for many years. But in that particular era, he just happened to be caught in the eye of the storm, and the court sentenced him to life imprisonment. By the standards of sentencing, the judgement was clearly excessive.

Up to now, Lu Shuchun had already served six years in prison. During these six years, every time on Lu Shuchun's birthday, Lu Pingping would avoid Yan Fei and go visit her father alone. Initially, Lu Pingping bore resentment towards her criminal father, blaming him for her mother's death and the drastic changes in her life. But as Lu Pingping stepped into society and learned of its harsh realities, she gradually forgave her father, which is why she went to see him.

However, perhaps feeling embarrassed to have a criminal father, Lu Pingping always visited Lu Shuchun secretly on her own, never letting Yan Fei know.

No one helped Lu Shuchun fight his case anymore, so even though insiders knew the punishment was clearly excessive, and he had been incarcerated for six years, no one came forward to speak on his behalf. If nothing unusual happened, this would continue, and Lu Shuchun would spend the rest of his life in prison.

After Lu Pingping came to help manage Dream Technology, Yan Fei noticed that she would become unhappy every now and then and leave him for a while. In a coincidental circumstance, Yan Fei finally discovered the reason for Lu Pingping's unhappiness–it was her still-imprisoned father.

Yan Fei had considered helping Lu Pingping, but at that time, his trump card wasn't strong enough to be taken seriously by the higher-ups, so he could only wait silently. Now, with the help of Yang Qi, the technology of Misty Island Tech had advanced by leaps and bounds, already capable of producing things interesting to the nation. At this point, Yan Fei finally had enough confidence to use the two chip production lines to secure a chance to review Lu Shuchun's case.

Yan Fei was aware of the importance of the two 5nm chip production lines, but now that he needed help, he naturally had to offer them in exchange. Lu Pingping was very important to Yan Fei; she had been pouring her heart out for Dream Technology and always responded to Yan Fei's requests. Coupled with the fact that Lu Shuchun had been kind to Yan Fei back in the day, Yan Fei decided to put forth such a valuable bargaining chip for an exchange of interests.

However, these two chip production lines were only somewhat more advanced than the current level. As long as Yan Fei was willing to expend Energy Points to increase the production precision, he could create even more formidable chip production lines. Therefore, he didn't hesitate to donate these two chip production lines.
