Lin Wu drove to a well-decorated Cantonese restaurant and ordered several classic Cantonese dishes. After the two of them finished lunch, it was already one in the afternoon.

“Boss, aren’t you going to visit the semiconductor factory?”

“No, going there would only add more pressure to them. What I need to do now is wait patiently for their good news.”

Lin Wu nodded, somewhat understanding, and drove towards the Hilton Hotel.

Four days flew by. During these four days, Zhou Chao, accompanied by Lin Wu, explored most of Peng City. From the top-rated Cantonese restaurant to the small roadside eateries, Zhou Chao tried various local delicacies. They also sampled some snacks unique to Peng City.

“Boss, the office building and dormitory building have both been renovated, and the supporting facilities are also in place. We can move into the office anytime now.”

“Good, well wait for the people arranged by Ling Chen to arrive, and then the semiconductor factory can officially start production.”

“Boss, should I call Ling Chen to remind him?” Zhou Chao thought for a moment but ultimately shook his head.

“Not today. There’s still no definite confirmation from the semiconductor factory. It wouldn’t be fun for everyone to gather and then find out we can’t start production yet.”

Just as Zhou Chao finished speaking, his phone, resting on the table, started ringing. Lin Wu handed it to him.

“Boss, it’s Zhou Jilong!”

Zhou Chao answered the call and heard Zhou Jilong’s excited voice on the other end.

“Boss, we’ve succeeded! The semiconductor factory can start mass production anytime now!” Explore the beginning of this data at n0v^lbin★

“Really? Have all the problems been resolved?” Zhou Chao sat up on the couch, thrilled.

“Yes, all the issues have been resolved. The yield rate has greatly improved, and our production efficiency has also increased!”

“Great job! Document all the solutions to the problems, and make sure everyone learns from them so that any future issues can be resolved quickly.

Also, tonight, you make an arrangement for everyone to go out for a good meal. You can choose any restaurant you like!”

“Boss, aren’t you coming?”

“Good morning, Boss!”

“Morning, Wang Feng! Are the vehicles all set?”

“Everything is arranged and ready to go after a final check!”

“Good, you carry on. I’ll go to the office building,” Zhou Chao said, leading Lin Wu towards the office building.

The office building wasn’t very tall, with only five floors, but it had an imposing and grand appearance. It looked like a giant crab, symbolizing their ambition to dominate the technology sector in the future.

Upon entering the lobby, Zhou Chao found the interior decoration tasteful, combining a simple Huaxia style with sophistication. He explored the building thoroughly, and although it wasn’t tall, it was equipped with four elevators and had a well-stocked supply of office essentials. It took him nearly half an hour to complete his tour, and he was quite satisfied with what he saw.

“The team under Qingchun has done a great job.”

Then Zhou Chao went to check the dormitory area, where he found a variety of suites available, including two-bedroom and three-bedroom options. They were all fully furnished and ready for immediate occupancy.

“It’s quite comprehensive here. It can easily accommodate a family of three.”

“That’s true. These research personnel won’t have to worry about living apart from their families anymore. If possible, the boss can discuss with Secretary Ye about the children’s education.”

“That’s a great idea! Your vision is becoming more long-term.”

After their tour, Zhou Chao was highly satisfied with the design and layout.

“Let’s go check what Zhou Jilong and his team are up to at the research institute.”

When they arrived at the research institute, even before entering, they heard a heated discussion among Zhou Jilong and his colleagues.

“Absolutely not! Our main focus now is on production. As for research, we can consider it once our production volume has increased.

Moreover, developing a lithography system isn’t something that can be done quickly. We don’t have the capability to obtain it from the Chinese Academy of Sciences. We should prioritize the development of silicon wafers for now, and we can discuss the chip-related matters in the long run.”

Upon entering, Zhou Chao witnessed a heated argument among the group. As they noticed his presence, the tension subsided.

“Your current goal is to ensure the success of the silicon wafer factory. As for the topics you were discussing, they are not difficult to address. Right now, what 1 need from all of you is a wholehearted dedication to the 12-inch silicon wafer factory. Do you understand?” Zhou Chao’s voice became stern as he spoke, causing a moment of apprehension in the minds of those present.

“We understand, Boss!”

“Good, as for the personnel from Modu who are coming over, Zhou Jilong, you need to arrange their accommodation and dining. Make sure everything is well organized, and don’t let anything go wrong.”

“Don’t worry, boss. Everything is already arranged..”
