Both Sides Are Probing

5G is merely a rudimentary application of cloud processing. Origin Company, possessing quantum computers, is naturally unsatisfied with the status quo.

However, good things can't be revealed all at once.

Take wireless power transmission technology, for instance. Chu Feng possesses the complete technology and application methods, but would he dare reveal it now?

The country wouldn't allow it either. Technological reform must be gradual; sudden changes would only throw the world into chaos.

If wireless power transmission were widely adopted, a significant number of people would lose their jobs, and the resulting losses would be too immense.

Other advanced civilizations also wait until interstellar migration is achievable. Only then will there truly be vast lands and sparse populations, allowing the wealthy on Planet Taibo to buy entire planets as their private gardens.

By then, wireless power transmission will simply be the norm.

Earth is still too small.

Regardless of external discussions, time is always fair and continues to flow. As China's three major carriers, Mobile, Unicom, and Telecom, are all actively deploying 5G network base stations.

Mobile phone numbers are becoming increasingly important, especially after the requirement for real-name registration. They are like a secondary ID card for individuals.

Many people are accustomed to a particular number, whether out of convenience or attachment, and rarely change it.

Even those with grievances against their carriers often have no choice but to endure.

Now, the situation has improved. The state has declared that number portability must be implemented unconditionally.

This news caused a national uproar, almost to the point of nationwide celebration. Everyone is discussing number portability online.

Some are happy, while others are worried. Most people already have mobile numbers. Those with a large user base want to retain their customers, while those with fewer users see an opportunity to attract new ones. Everyone is employing their unique strategies.

If they were still acting as they used to, these three companies wouldn't have cared at all. But now, they have to install 5G base stations, even if it means offering them for free.

The state is also very supportive of 5G, introducing several policies.

First, coordinate and promote the "speed increase and fee reduction" initiative, guiding the telecommunications industry to transition from "speed increase and fee reduction" to "speed and quality increase."

Second, research the establishment of a special fund for 5G industry development to provide necessary financial subsidies for 5G network construction. Simultaneously, it is recommended to standardize and guide social capital participation in 5G network construction, alleviating the financial pressure on carriers and sharing the dividends of 5G development.

Third, strengthen overall planning and increase tax incentives and support.

Fourth, coordinate with developers, property management, subways, and lampposts to open them for carrier use, helping carriers reduce 5G network construction costs.

Meanwhile, Chu Feng was almost driven mad by Lin Lin.

The super laboratory on Jiangxin Islet had long been completed, and all the equipment was being systematically installed in the laboratory.

The entire experimental base, excluding the spaceship hangar below, had two ground floors for mechanical research, and three underground floors for various technology restorations.

Currently, Chu Feng and Lin Lin were in the research and development center on the third underground floor.

"Chu Feng, what exactly are you thinking? You just gave away the 5nm wafer fabrication process. You trust them so much, but this is betrayal! You... you... do you even deserve the trust placed in you? Do you know the pressure we're under? Many people are proposing to reclaim Origin's technology!"

Listening to Lin Lin's incessant chatter, Chu Feng felt his head was about to explode.

"How many times have I told you? First, I only handed over the equipment. I'm not an idiot. I can stop them whenever I want, and they can't dismantle it at all."

He explained to Lin Lin again, helplessly.

Before Lin Lin could say anything more, Chu Feng continued, "Besides, the 5nm technology is really nothing significant. I will definitely give the country some good things."

"What good things?" Lin Lin's interest was piqued upon hearing about good things.

Following Chu Feng was tiring. He would inadvertently cause major disruptions. Take the 5G technology this time, for example. No one knew that Origin had quietly developed practical technology and registered a large number of patents simultaneously, catching everyone off guard. Fortunately, there were contingency plans; otherwise, it would have led to chaos.

As for the 5nm wafer fabrication process, even though they were only outsourcing the manufacturing, everyone knew their true intentions. Once they fully understood the technology, they would kick Origin aside and go solo!

"Here, this." Chu Feng kicked a metal box beside him, about two meters square.

"What is this?"

Lin Lin asked suspiciously. She had noticed the box when she entered, but there were no markings on it, so she didn't know what it was and didn't dare to ask casually.

"A 1nm wafer production line."

Lin Lin was stunned. This two-meter square box was a production line?

I'm not well-read, don't lie to me!

Seeing Lin Lin's wide, adorable eyes, Chu Feng couldn't help but chuckle. Why such an expression?

"Hello? Are you back? Do you think I would lie to you? Have someone come and take it away to find out. This was originally prepared to be sent to the country by the airline."

Chu Feng waved his hand, bringing the shocked Lin Lin back to reality.

Seeing the footprint left by Chu Feng's kick on the metal box, Lin Lin was almost scared to death.

Such precise equipment is treated like this?

"Here, this is the equipment's operation manual and manufacturing process. It's all for you. Don't say I've betrayed you now."

Chu Feng handed Lin Lin a memory card. Lin Lin, blushing, snatched it away as if afraid Chu Feng would change his mind.

Without another word, Lin Lin rushed out to report to her superiors. However, after just two steps, she turned back.

"What?" Chu Feng asked, confused. Wasn't she extremely anxious just moments ago?

"You come out too." Lin Lin was afraid Chu Feng would kick it again. Thinking about Chu Feng's actions just now, her heart was still pounding.

"Alright, alright, let's go. I'm scared of you." Chu Feng shook his head helplessly. He had no choice but to follow her upstairs.

Not long after, in the lounge on the upper floor, Lin Lin reported the situation to Director Chen via a secret phone call. To her surprise, Director Chen was even more excited than she was. Before she could finish speaking, he ordered that the equipment be escorted back.

"Is it really that important?" Chu Feng felt a bit powerless to complain.

"It's very important!" Lin Lin's resolute reply made Chu Feng feel her excitement as well.

"You don't know how difficult it has been for the country. We started so many years behind Western technology, and they imposed technological blockades and joint suppression. We had to explore everything step by step on our own, making many wrong turns. Now that the country is gradually getting stronger, they're afraid of China's technology surpassing them."

It was rare to see Lin Lin looking so serious, and Chu Feng felt a sense of emotion.

Many people nowadays talk about how great foreign countries are, but they don't see how difficult China's development has been. Life now is so much better than before, and people don't cherish it.

"Don't worry, you know why Origin could be established in China, don't you?"

"Of course, I know, and the country knows too. Do you think you've been able to mess around so peacefully for so long, and that the company hasn't had any other messy incidents, for no reason?"

Lin Lin said with a meaningful tone.

"It wasn't Director Chen..." Chu Feng asked in confusion.

"Although the Director has considerable influence, he can't block all the pressure. In fact, the higher-ups have been paying attention to you for a long time. Origin Company is China's opportunity to surpass the West, and no person or force is allowed to interfere or cause trouble. Otherwise, they would be severely punished. Otherwise, how could you be living so carefree?"

Lin Lin's words also made Chu Feng break out in a cold sweat.

No wonder everything had gone so smoothly for him; it turned out...

However, his heart felt warm. It turned out they had always cared about him. This time, sending the 1nm wafer equipment and process was also a test, and the results were very satisfactory. They hadn't disappointed him, while he had been misjudging them with a petty mind.

Check-in for the 28th day of stable updates. The first chapter has been released, and the second chapter will follow.
