Chapter 291 Neon's Exit

The world is changing dynamically, and the effect brought about by Chen Yuanguang is both drastic and slow.

Any established rules of the past are being broken one after another.

The University of East China has begun to provide benefits to the lower classes, the University of West China has been able to lower the immigration threshold and recruit a large number of Chinese science and engineering talents, and the dividends of Korea, Japan, and Taiwan, which are the beneficiaries of the international order, are disappearing and even turning into negative assets.

All individuals in it feel that they are in a huge vortex, but some people are in the center of the vortex, and some are at the edge of the vortex.

Tominaga really likes his time in China. Here he truly feels that what he has learned and accumulated in the past are slowly changing the entire industrial world.

Relying on its cooperation with Chinese manufacturers, Nikon is gradually taking back the market for lithography machines, if topological semimetal burning equipment can also be considered a lithography machine.

Whether it is the chip manufacturers in China or Nikon headquarters, the products they cooperate on are not called lithography machines. The full name is topological semimetal chip production equipment. They usually call it TM, the first one is the first letter of topology, and the latter one is the first letter of machine.

Chinese engineers like to add a D at the end, especially when something goes wrong, they like to use this word to express their inner dissatisfaction.

At first, Junji Tominaga didn't know what this meant. He thought the last D stood for Damn. He even felt sad that Chinese engineers were so keen on rap music.

After staying there for about half a year, Tominaga finally understood what this meant. It turned out that "TMD" was the traditional Chinese curse.

After he understood, he slowly started to use TMD to curse people.

"The world is so unpredictable." Tominaga was at the terminal of Shenhai Pudong Airport, feeling sad.

Because Japan will completely terminate its cooperation with China in the field of topological semimetals, all of Nikon's Japanese engineers have been recalled.

China has not compromised in the field of room-temperature superconductivity, and they do not even export the most basic quantum computers, which has led to further divisions in the semiconductor industry.

All possible loopholes have been blocked.

Tominaga hopes to continue this career, which will allow him to see the hope of completely killing existing silicon-based chips, and he can also leave his own mark in the history of semiconductor development.

As a Japanese, he has a very good foundation in Chinese, especially in classical Chinese. He feels that a line of poetry can represent his situation in recent years: Yu Xin was at the most desolate in his life, and his poems in his later years moved people across the Yangtze River.

Similar to Zhang Yitang who solved the twin prime conjecture only in his later years, Tominaga was also unable to put his life's learning into practice until his later years.

Whether it is reported by the outside world or in reality, he is Lin Benjian in the field of topological semimetals, and is considered a key figure in the topological semimetal industry chain.

It was precisely because of this overestimation that Tominaga had to leave China, even though he very much wanted to stay.

"Morita-kun, is there really no other way?" After returning to Tokyo, Tominaga spoke with a heavy tone and looked a little haggard.

Because Tominaga knew in advance that he would be leaving, he tried his best to hand over all the work on hand during his last period in China and told his Chinese colleagues as many of his ideas as possible.

He hopes that even if he is unable to continue this career, his Chinese colleagues will be able to successfully open up new paths.

You talk about the spirit of internationalism, but that’s not the case. The fundamental reason is that this is also his career.

“There is no solution this time.

It is equally important to us at Nikon. It has been Nikon's biggest growth point in the past three years and also the most imaginative area.

ASML is able to have a market value of $2000 billion by monopolizing cutting-edge lithography processes. We can also enjoy a market value exceeding that of ASML by cooperating with China.

You have to believe that Nikon's board of directors and shareholders behind it want Nikon to continue cooperating with China more than anyone else."

It is not surprising for capitalists to sell the rope that hangs them. "But this is Washington's decision, Tokyo has also agreed, and the local prosecutors have been dispatched. Whether it is openly or privately, don't even think about cooperating with China anymore." Morita was equally upset.

Nikon's stock price has been like a roller coaster ride, soaring from a market value of 5000 billion yen, or 37 billion U.S. dollars, to trillion yen, and even trillion yen is just around the corner.

A market value of 10 trillion yen is extremely difficult to achieve in the Japanese stock market, and basically only the top companies can cross this threshold.

By the end of 2022, only five companies in the entire neon market will be able to pass this hurdle.

Nikon's current market value is less than one trillion, and it seems to be going back to where it came from.

For Nikon's chairman Morita, this was all money, and it was hard to accept that it would just disappear like that.

"Morita-kun, I still can't understand why we have a very good relationship with China and have very close exchanges in all areas."

Tominaga was interrupted before he could finish, and Morita said, “These are just appearances.

The impact of the University of Tokyo's capture of the outer islands on Japan was enormous. The emergence of new submarines meant that the University of Tokyo could threaten Japan's homeland at any time.

For the sake of its national security, Japan must maintain good relations with the University of Tokyo.

But in addition to the threat from East China University, West China University is also a threat, and a threat that can directly control us.

We couldn't refuse Xida's request.

We can only be manipulated as pawns.

As for immigration, it is for the sake of national development and we need to absorb immigrants from China.

By the way, Mr. Tominaga, have you ever thought about this question, that is, why among all ethnic groups, it is easy for some ethnic groups to immigrate to America, but it is difficult for others?
Immigrants from the University of Tokyo are obviously better candidates than those from India. They contribute taxes, have no political demands, do not stir up trouble, and have sufficient self-motivation in their work. That is why it is only one-tenth as difficult to immigrate to India as it is to immigrate to the University of Tokyo.

If you can understand this, then you will understand the essence of your previous questions. "

Tominaga felt that the other party was playing a riddle, but he still wanted to know the answer: "Because Indians form gangs?

Are they good at corporate politics, but they stick together? "

Morita smiled and said, “This is what the outside world wants you to think, but it is not the real world.

The media will give you all kinds of reasons.”

"So what's the substance?" Tominaga asked.

"The essence is that, for the top people, the concept of country is much weaker than the concept of class. The rich people on the West Coast cannot understand what the rednecks in the same country are thinking, but they can fully understand what the councilors in Chiyoda Ward in Neon are worried about.

So for the real white elites in the Western world, if America cannot win the competition with the East, then India will be a good place to parasitize.

China obviously cannot serve as this target, and neither can Neon. Only a country that is divided into many ethnic groups and where conflicts between ethnic groups are difficult to reconcile could become an alternative.

This premise was built on the failure of the contest with China. They believed that population was equally important. Only with a large enough population could a genetically mutated superhuman be born. Superhumans like Chen Yuanguang were most likely to be born in India.

India is the best choice, which is the fundamental reason why Indians are given preferential treatment in immigration.

They need a retreat, and India is that retreat. The only drawback is that it is too close to China, but in today's nuclear deterrence, this is a drawback that can be ignored."
