Chapter 488: Aunty, I Don’t Want to Struggle Anymore

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The dishes on the table were all famous Yanjing-flavored dishes.

From this, it was obvious that Lin Yi paid attention to detail.

“In truth, I came to Zhonghai this time for a meeting and also came to visit Little Mi. I didn’t expect to bump into the two of you together. I’ve made you spend so much of your money today.”

“What kind of expense is this? Obviously, we can eat at our own restaurant whenever we please.” Lin Yi said.

“In the future, when Auntie comes for any business trips, stay here. I’ll reserve a presidential suite for you alone. Only you can stay there.”

“You don’t have to be so polite. I don’t come to Zhonghai often. Besides, Little Mi has a house here. I can stay at her place.”

Liang Ruoxu rolled his eyes at Lin Yi, feeling a little smug.

His flattery had failed, right?

‘My mother wouldn’t fall for that.’

“Okay you can stay at her place. I’ll just go home.”

“Um…”

The atmosphere in the private room was a little strange. Shen Shuyi sized up her daughter and felt that things were not that simple.

He had only been in Zhonghai for two months, but their relationship had already developed to this extent?

Could it be that they knew each other from the beginning?

Did what should have happened already happen?

Would he give her a grandson in advance?

In the entire Huaxia, there were few women who could compare to Shen Shuyi in terms of status.

Even so, she still retained the characteristics of an ordinary woman.

Gossip, paranoia, and conjecture.

With just one sentence, Lin Yi made her imagine an 80-episode modern drama.

Therefore, in some ways, Shen Shuyi was no different from any other ordinary mother.

“Lin Yi, what nonsense are you spouting?” Liang Ruoxu pouted.

“Don’t ruin my reputation. I, Liang Ruoxu, am not that kind of person.”

“I just said that she can stay at your house. I didn’t say anything wrong. How did it ruin your reputation? Can’t I go back home myself? You’re too domineering.”

“Alright, alright, stop arguing,” Shen Shuyi said.

“You’re already an adult. Why can’t you keep your cool?”

Usually, Liang Ruoxu was not like this. With Shen Shuyi around, she could not control her little girl side.

“Lil Yi, I heard that you’re developing a photolithography machine.” Shen Shuyi asked while eating.

“Yeah.” Lin Yi nodded and didn’t hide anything.

This kind of thing could be discussed openly.

“Did you encounter any difficulties, such as funds? I can invest in you.”

“There’s no need, Auntie. I’m quite rich in this aspect. It’s enough for the time being.”

The photolithography machine was truly a bottomless pit. Investing 200 to 300 million was useless and would not immediately produce results. Lin Yi didn’t lack that bit of money, so she didn’t have to invest.

“Although I don’t know much about the technology field, I know that photolithography machines are not something that can be completed on willpower alone. When you need money one day, just tell Auntie. If it’s too much, I might not be able to provide it, but tens of billions won’t be a problem.”

Puff!

Lin Yi almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

Tens of billions wasn’t considered a lot?

That’s all I have, okay?!

Auntie, you’re being too low-key!

“Auntie,” Lin Yi said seriously.

“What’s wrong?”

“I don’t want to fight anymore.”

“Did you encounter some difficulties? Tell Auntie.”

Shen Shuyi leaned back in her chair and straightened her back. If she was not from a prestigious family, she would not have such a proper sitting posture.

“Recently, Boss Shen’s research has encountered a problem. It requires a four-nanometer EUV light source, and only Cymer can produce this kind of thing. Does Auntie have any connections in this area?”

“Cymer…”

Shen Shuyi muttered, “Cymer is the top light source manufacturer in the world, and it’s a Meiguon company. Now that the relationship between the two countries is so strained, it is very difficult to buy a four-nanometer light source from them.”

Lin Yi nodded. “A few days ago, Director Shen looked for someone from Cymer’s Zhonghai Department to talk about this, but it didn’t work out. They didn’t buy it.”

“You can’t talk directly to Cymer’s people. Cymer’s majority shareholder is Intel. They’re the real deal.”

“Intel?”

Lin Yi’s eyes lit up as if he had thought of a solution.

However, he could not guarantee that he could successfully resolve this matter, but at the very least, he had to try his best.

“In addition, you caused such a huge commotion a few days ago. I reckon that some companies in Meiguo have already blacklisted you, so this matter will be even more difficult to handle,” Shen Shuyi said.

“But you can’t do proceed without a 4-nanometer light source.”

“We can develop it ourselves, but it will take a long time. We can’t afford to wait.”

“I have an idea. Listen to it and see if it’ll work,” Liang Ruoxu said.

“Tell me.”

“It’s the same old trick. I can give an order to customs and have them seize Intel’s goods so that they can sell them to us.”

“You’re still too young and naive.” Shen Shuyi said.

“Computer chips and medicine are different. Although imported medicine is important, we can still find imperfect substitutes. Chips are different. Chips are something that can determine the fate of the country. If you dare to detain Intel’s chip for a day, our family will be at risk of being ousted. This plan is not feasible.

“It will be too difficult. They’re not short of money, and they don’t have to worry about sales. There won’t even be room for negotiation.”

“You can’t say that. We still have a slight chance.”

Lin Yi’s words attracted the mother and daughter’s attention.

Even someone as smart as Shen Shuyi couldn’t understand what opportunity Lin Yi was talking about.

“Little Yi, let me remind you. Minor tricks and schemes can only be used when both parties are evenly matched or the difference between the two sides is not that big. Otherwise, they will be useless,” Shen Shuyi said.

“It’s like a dimensional attack in Trisolaris. Those financial unicorns won’t even bother negotiating with you.”

“Just like how you poached Director Shen back then. If Microsoft knew about this in advance, you might not have been able to bring him back.”

Lin Yi smiled. “I understand what you’re saying, Auntie, so I don’t plan to play tricks on them this time. I want to fight for real.”

“Really?”

This time, the mother and daughter were even more confused. With his current ability, he probably didn’t have the ability to go against a company like Intel.

“If you want to pull them to the same table to negotiate, you need to have something to balance things out.” Shen Shuyi looked at Lin Yi.

“But I don’t think you have such a trump card.”

“Auntie, you’re wrong. I do have a trump card. It’s useless to others, but it might be useful to Intel.”

“What exactly are you talking about?”

“Chip 2.0 technology!”
