Chapter 1441 Voting?
Some people immediately suspected that Lyman Monroe was still asleep.
Creating a flawless chip by combining the strengths of many sources sounds easy, but in reality, it's no exaggeration to say it's incredibly difficult.
After all, the technology for manufacturing chips is a core secret of every company, and it would never be leaked even if the company went bankrupt. How could it possibly be given to others to use?
"Heh, Lyman Monroe, you've really gone to great lengths to deal with me, even staging this whole thing."
Lu Feng couldn't help but laugh out loud, but his laughter contained an endless chill.
The claim that they've combined the strengths of many to create a flawless chip is just an excuse; their real aim is to seize Tenglong's technology.
If he actually believes it, there's no doubt that what awaits him is that Tenglong's core technology will be completely exploited by these guys.
After all, he was the only outsider at the entire seminar.
Yes, he was the only outsider. Every single person present, if they were a chip company, was his enemy.
Why is China's chip development so difficult? Isn't it all thanks to these people?
They joined forces and imposed a blockade on everything from production and equipment to raw materials and technology, leaving no room for maneuver.
If Lu Feng were to trust a company like this, he would be truly out of his mind.
If one had to describe Lyman Monroe's performance in this play in one sentence, it would be: the wealthy get their money back in full, while the common people get their money split 30/70.
The wealthy and powerful are represented by these chip companies, while the common people are represented by Landwind and Tenglong.
"This guy's thinking is really clever; he's trying to get something for nothing!"
Wen Jingchuan, standing to the side, appeared indignant.
He also saw through Lyman Monroe's intentions.
This method is absolutely disgusting.
What he didn't know was that while he was gritting his teeth at Lyman Monroe, Lu Feng was watching him out of the corner of his eye.
[As expected, Uncle Li was right. If we can bring Wen Jingchuan to my side, he will be a great asset!]
Lu Feng looked at him silently, but the words Li Zhengguo had told him on the phone earlier flashed through his mind.
“Xiao Feng, Wen Jingchuan is a very good person. He is kind and resourceful. Most importantly, he is a patriotic businessman.”
"If you can bring him under your wing, your path in the chip industry will be much smoother in the future!"
He had been somewhat skeptical before, but after spending the last two days together and seeing Wen Jingchuan's current performance, he was completely convinced and even more eager to bring Wen Jingchuan under his wing.
Lyman Monroe's seductive speech continued, and it must be said that this old fox still has some tricks up his sleeve.
If Lu Feng hadn't known about his plan beforehand, he might have actually been swayed by the old man's words.
Time passed slowly, and after about ten minutes, the speech finally came to an end.
However, Lyman Monroe was not idle. After giving Lu Feng a meaningful look, he clapped his hands, and many servants appeared and began distributing cards to the audience.
"Ladies and gentlemen, now comes the moment everyone has been waiting for. All those who have received a servant card, please sign the name of your company on the card."
"We will decide whether to implement this plan by voting, with the minority obeying the majority."
Lyman Monroe's tone grew increasingly impassioned: "To ensure complete fairness in this vote, only companies belonging to the chip industry have the right to vote. Now, please begin voting!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the audience members who received the cards began to write their company names on them.
There are two cards in total, one for agreeing and one for disagreeing. Simply sign your name on the card you choose.
"Chairman Lu, how do we sign?"
Upon receiving the card, Wen Jingchuan asked softly.
"How can we sign it? Of course we'll refuse. Do you really want to hand over your company's core secrets to these people?!"
Lu Feng snorted and then signed his name on the rejection card.
Seeing this, Wen Jingchuan nodded and followed suit, signing Lianke's name on the rejection card.
Although he has now lost control of Linkcore, he is still nominally the chairman of Linkcore, and it is only natural for him to sign Linkcore's name.
Soon, the names were all signed, and the attendant reappeared to collect and tally the signed cards one by one.
Before long, the numerous cards bearing names were tallied and handed over to Lyman Monroe.
"Come on, ladies and gentlemen, let's see the results of this vote!"
Lyman Monroe took the thick stack of cards and began to read aloud: "Nvidia agrees, AMD agrees, Crucial agrees, Infineon agrees..."
The cards representing agreement were read aloud for a full five or six minutes, and as Lu Feng had expected, almost all the companies chose to agree.
Even a behemoth like Nvidia is no exception.
He didn't believe that the US government wasn't involved.
"Wow, it seems everyone wants to contribute to the chip industry on Earth. I thank you all for your efforts."
"Hundreds of millions of our compatriots on Earth will remember your contributions!!!"
Lyman Monroe's expression was exaggerated, as if everyone was doing something sacred.
Those in the audience who were not leaders in the chip industry were quite surprised to hear that so many companies had agreed.
After all, they were just saying that Lyman Monroe was dreaming, but in the blink of an eye, so many companies agree.
"On behalf of Apple, I also agree to jointly develop a brand new chip!"
Just as everyone was surprised, Hunter, who had been sitting on the stage without saying a word, stood up.
As he stood up, Samsung Chairman Lee Ji-yeon and Jia Yikun, who were standing beside him, also stood up:
"I agree on behalf of Samsung!"
"On behalf of Lianke, I agree!"
The three individuals' statements ignited the audience's curiosity, leaving them wondering what had happened to prompt so many companies to reveal their core secrets.
Except for one person.
"Depend on!"
"Who gives Jia Yikun the right to represent Lianke? I'm the chairman of Lianke! It's not his place as the vice chairman to speak!"
Wen Jingchuan, sitting in the audience, stared at Jia Yikun on stage with his eyes practically popping out of their sockets.
"Calm down, Chairman Wen. A small act of impatience can ruin a big plan. Let him enjoy his glory for a while."
Lu Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, his voice carrying a chilling coldness that sent shivers down one's spine.
"Alright everyone, please quiet down!"
Seeing that it was about time, Lyman Monroe pressed his hands down, and the audience immediately fell silent.
"Next, let's take a look at which companies disagree with joint research and development!"
As he spoke, he suddenly looked at Lu Feng, his eyes filled with undisguised mockery.
