Busy for several days, a preliminary plan for opening a university was finalized.

For example, the medical school will use the Mount Sterling Earl Hospital as an affiliated hospital, undertaking some teaching practice functions.

Public hospitals in Hong Kong only charge registration fees. Local residents, whether for major or minor illnesses, are basically free of charge as long as they are within the scope of medical insurance. The profit margins of private hospitals are limited, and Su Yehao doesn't like them anyway, and it's easy to get scolded.

So, after saying hello to Mom Tang and his maternal grandfather, the matter was decided.

In addition, there is the Computer Science School, which will open several genius classes, specifically cultivating a group of talents. Upon enrollment, employment contracts will be signed directly. Not only will Su Yehao provide scholarships, but a monthly living allowance will also be provided during the school period, along with many internship opportunities.

As long as the ability is outstanding enough, even working directly in Silicon Valley is not a problem. This is mainly to attract computer geniuses in the Asian region, which is very attractive to many parents in the mainland.

The Business School also has similar genius classes, with very high score requirements, as well as a separate assessment and interview process, striving to truly select one in ten thousand.

With the business scale expanding madly, Su Yehao is short of staff. Using these high-paying job opportunities as a gimmick will surely make his school famous.

In addition to this, there is the Health Science and Technology School, mainly focusing on pharmaceutical research and development. In the future, it will be equipped with a top-notch pharmaceutical research laboratory, dedicated to tackling several of the deadliest diseases, and perhaps even spend some money to create a reward-type gimmick.

The preparatory team has more than twenty employees in total, and their work efficiency is very fast. They asked the Sihai International design team to help create a few campus concept maps.

Su Yehao thought they were not bad after seeing them, and immediately posted them online, claiming that he planned to invest at least five billion U.S. dollars.

As soon as the news came out, it attracted widespread attention.

Many netizens were immediately envious, regretting that the school was established too late, commenting that they would strive to get their children admitted in the future.

This time, Su Yehao finally didn't use emoticons, and named the school "Bauhinia Institute of Technology", which is a private research university.

Personally posting the news online means that there is no turning back.

The authorities also quickly responded to people's doubts, saying that they are very grateful to Su Yehao for his support of education and scientific research, and are studying and discussing the issue of land.

As long as you are willing to invest, this matter is not difficult to facilitate.

Seeing that another year was about to pass by haphazardly, Su Yehao thought it would probably be like this, but on December 15th, Dr. Lin Baojian suddenly called.

Dr. Lin said on the phone:

"Immersion lithography machine, basically successful. The data obtained from the experiment is very good. I feel that after a period of research, we can start mass production. We are currently testing its stability."

When he received the call, Su Yehao was playing mahjong with Da Ya Jun and the others. After hearing this, his eyes lit up and he asked in surprise: "Oh? So fast? Is it reliable?"

It has only been more than two months since Dr. Lin Baojian last asked for money.

Su Yehao thought that even if it was fast, it would have to wait until the first or second quarter of next year. He didn't expect that the prototype could be produced so quickly.

"Well, ASML is doing its best to support us. It just so happens that there were two machines that Intel breached the contract and didn't want before. Their executives are ruthless enough, and they directly disassembled a batch of parts, saving a lot of time."

Hearing this, Su Yehao understood.

ASML's market share is only about 10%, and the technicians are all idle. In addition, they had basic equipment for experiments before, so it was of course faster to work on it.

He asked further: "Have you tested it with a prototype? Is there any problem with using it?"

"I haven't found any major problems yet. The stability will take some time to get results. I was afraid you would worry, so I told you in advance. In any case, it is better than Nikon and Canon's lithography machines. My idea was indeed correct. The water refraction path can indeed work."

Dr. Lin Baojian would have been better off not saying anything. Su Yehao became angry after hearing this. He still remembers being stabbed in the back.

Professional personnel have more say in whether the product is good or not. Su Yehao only said: "Keep the news secret for the time being. I will say hello to ASML later. As long as there is no problem with the machine, we will immediately start preparing for mass production."

ASML's revenue was already low, and it was simultaneously researching extreme ultraviolet lithography machines and immersion lithography machines, so its cash flow was almost exhausted.

As long as it is determined that a product can be produced, it can soon be pre-ordered and a deposit collected.

Not to mention anything else, it doesn't matter if Qiangxin International is a little slower, which just avoids being noticed by Europe and the United States, but Hong Kong Microelectronics must place an order to first take over ASML's initial production capacity and achieve a leading edge over competitors.

It is impossible to monopolize the market. At most, some initiative can be taken through fair competition.

Su Yehao holds 40% of ASML's shares in his own hands, and he can also earn a profit by selling lithography machines at high prices.

In addition, the production capacity of Qiangxin International and Hong Kong Microelectronics is limited, and even if they grab orders, they will not increase much.

The top priority is to seize the market that originally belonged to Nikon and Canon's lithography machines, so as to avoid Canon people from finding opportunities to bypass patent barriers, directly copying Dr. Lin Baojian's ideas, and stealing the market share that should belong to ASML.

The immersion lithography machine, to put it bluntly, is just a partial improvement on the original lithography machine technology, and it cannot be said to be completely stable yet.

If he really wants to occupy a place in the field of wafer foundry, it is not too difficult for Su Yehao, so why take the risk and provoke public anger.

He was losing money anyway, so the mahjong game was cancelled directly.

Once the immersion lithography machine is successful, it will affect many industries. Su Yehao needs to sort it out to see if there will be any opportunities in the short term.

For example, personal computers will have greatly improved performance, as well as mobile terminal devices, which will greatly benefit Apple, which is making great strides through the iPod.

The breakthrough of this technology will inevitably bring about impacts in all aspects. Society will take another big step forward. Maybe Nokia, Motorola, and other mobile phone giants will soon develop semi-smart phones.

More than five years.

Su Yehao has worked hard for more than five years, and finally sees a glimmer of hope of regaining smart phones.

In addition, as soon as the news of the breakthrough in lithography machine technology came out, the technology industry will mostly usher in a new round of surge. It would be an understatement if ASML's stock price doubled, so he is of course very happy.

After saying a few polite words through his mobile phone and telling Dr. Lin Baojian, who is far away in Silicon Valley, to pay attention to rest, Su Yehao gave a few instructions and soon contacted ASML, sending an email asking them to do their best to assist Lin Baojian and immediately prepare for mass production.

He also called Zhang Rujing and the president of Hong Kong Microelectronics to notify them to expand the reserved factory buildings as soon as possible, try to communicate with major customers, and strive for more orders.

The immersion patent technology is independent of ASML. ASML only occupies a small share and is only responsible for assisting in research and development. The funds are basically paid by Su Yehao.

Therefore, even if Su Yehao is the largest shareholder of ASML, he does not need to hide it. It is not leaking ASML's internal news in advance, after all, the patent is not in its hands.

Su Yehao has been coveting TSMC's computer chip orders from Intel and AMD for a long time, and this time he will most likely be able to seize a portion of the foundry share.

At that time, the profit margin may be higher than before, and the financial pressure will be greatly reduced...
