Chapter 288 Labor Day gift?
Gao Zhendong took it over and took a look. The requirements were quite simple. The size requirements for 59 silicon monocrystals were even smaller than the current capacity. It is probably because the other party did not realize how capable Gao Zhendong and his monocrystalline furnaces were. powerful.
The crystal orientation requires growth in the (111) direction, and the doping element is phosphorus. Among the requirements, even the dislocation density and minority carrier concentration are involved.
Is this an N-type substrate? It seems that the other party has a very deep understanding of the role of silicon in semiconductors. The crystal orientation, doping, etc. are very clear. At first glance, it seems that the goal is very clear.
When you look at this requirement, you know that it is the substrate of a certain semiconductor product, but it does not involve a deeper process. There should be follow-up processes, but these follow-up processes are not done in the third rolling mill.
Gao Zhendong knows more about P-type substrates for solar panels, but he doesn't know much about N-type substrates for solar panels, and he doesn't even think in that direction.
Because although the two have the same performance, the former is used in all aerospace applications. As a military fan, he is naturally more aware of the former.
So, he never imagined that this thing was used to make solar panels.
This is a kind of "reverse information gap". It's not that Gao Zhendong doesn't know anything about solar cells, but what he knows is much more advanced than today's technology. On the contrary, he is less sensitive to things of this era. .
Just like many people in previous lives were very familiar with 5G and fiber optic broadband, but they knew nothing about dial-up Internet access and analog mobile phones.
Gao Zhendong did not continue to think more deeply. Trying to know the other party's purpose through these requests was as troublesome as trying to identify someone through a foot. It must be an acquaintance. Generally speaking, it is not impossible, but it is not necessary.
Gao Zhendong is not interested in delving into the opponent's purpose. This thing was transferred from the Defense Work Committee, and he didn't even mention the opponent's unit. He knew it with his heels. It was probably the level of a desert base. Users can just do what they are asked to do, but if they go into the details, they will make a mistake.
However, these requirements are not troublesome. For Gao Zhendong and his monocrystalline furnace, they are easy to obtain.
Gao Zhendong accepted the task, went to the confidential workshop to transfer people, and then made production arrangements. Although the things were not complicated, the quantity was relatively large, which was enough to keep them busy for a while.
For some reason, it has been many days since the monocrystal furnace and silicon monocrystals reported to the 17th Ministry of Machinery, the 12th Ministry of Machinery, and the National Academy of Sciences. For a while, everything was calm, as if everything had disappeared into the sea. I don’t know how many days they have. Is there any big move by this unit?
This made Yu Yuncheng have to wait for the conclusion of the question. Even if the preparations were done, he still couldn't get away to do other things.
In addition, he is not a member of the confidentiality line of the third rolling mill. Even if he is in this line in 1761, if he wants to participate in the confidential workshop work of the third rolling mill, the procedures are very cumbersome. Therefore, Gao Zhendong was not prepared to trouble Yu Yuncheng to handle the matter personally.
This kind of task must be carried out by people from the confidential workshop. Fortunately, Gao Zhendong was prepared in advance. When forming the scientific research team, he deliberately transferred 4 people from the confidential workshop to the scientific research team. They had mastered the single The crystal furnace can be used directly and can be produced as required.
Otherwise, there will be one more process, which is to let the people in the single crystal furnace research team first teach the people in the confidential workshop how to operate the single crystal furnace, and then let the people in the confidential workshop do the production.
After arranging this matter, Gao Zhendong continued his work.
——
Seeing that Labor Day was coming soon, Gao Zhendong received a Labor Day gift.
This gift was brought by the Ministry of Foreign Commerce. Don’t get me wrong, it has nothing to do with the export products he produces, but it can be regarded as another of his export products.
That was "C Programming" and the supporting exercise set he published at Citigroup, and the first royalties were received.
Speaking of which, Gao Zhendong didn't realize that he still had such an income, so when the comrades from the Ministry of Foreign Commerce found him and asked him to sign to get the money, he was completely confused.
The money was not small. The first batch of printing was 2,000 volumes of "C Programming" and 1,500 volumes of supporting exercise books, and they were all sold.
Gao Zhendong’s textbook, Citi’s co-publisher, is really operating as a textbook.
Everyone knows about Citigroup’s textbooks. Even now in 1960, in terms of purchasing power parity, there is a gap of about 6 to 9 times between Citicoin and Gao Zhendong’s previous life, but the publishers still Professional textbooks can be sold for dozens of Citicoins or even hundreds of Citicoins.
What's more, Gao Zhendong's book is rare and unique. Although the C language has not yet become completely popular, this does not prevent the co-publishers over there from raising the price. The idea is very simple. If scale cannot be guaranteed now, then we will ensure profit margins.
As for whether it will affect Citigroup’s learning of new knowledge? Who cares.
Besides, if you really want to learn, there is definitely a way to solve it. There are no poor people who are interested in computer-related technologies these days. Just like many ancient IT giants who were promoted from scratch, in fact, they have nothing to do with starting from scratch.
According to Citigroup’s tax laws, Gao Zhendong, as a non-resident foreigner, will be subject to their progressive tax rate based on this wave of income. The comprehensive tax rate is about 0.15.
Citigroup's IRS is relatively gentle to non-resident foreigners. Because it has no control over them, it only collects taxes on parts related to Citigroup's domestic economic activities.
If you are a foreigner residing in the country, they will be very happy. Your global income will be taxed, regardless of whether it has anything to do with Citigroup or not. For example, those who get a green card can easily enjoy the same treatment as the big boss Al Capone in the past.
At this time, the exchange rate between Citicoin and the local currency here is 1:2.46. This exchange rate has been fixed since 1955 and did not change until 1971 when the Bretton Woods system collapsed.
And here we have no personal income tax. In short, Gao Zhendong’s author’s royalties for Citigroup’s “C Programming” and the supporting exercise set, after a series of commission conversions, ended up in his hands with more than 38,000 Domestic currency.
Foreign exchange must be used uniformly, and foreign-related income must be converted into local currency according to the exchange rate and handed over to Gao Zhendong.
Don’t underestimate this number. This means that the Citicoin income brought is about 15,000, which is definitely not a small number these days, especially since Gao Zhendong is alone. Just get this foreign exchange income.
This is very different from the later reform and opening up period, when someone painted and sold his paintings abroad, bought tens or hundreds of thousands of Citicoins, and became a typical model of exporting to earn foreign exchange and made news. It’s just that at this time, this Things haven't been taken seriously to that extent yet.
The comrades at the Ministry of Foreign Commerce were a little dumbfounded by the success of Gao Zhendong's business. This "number one person in earning foreign exchange through exports" was well established. Not only did he know how to develop export products, but he also made great achievements in exporting himself. .
When Gao Zhendong received the call and rushed to the Ministry of Foreign Commerce, the person who received him and led him through the relevant procedures was not an ordinary staff member, but a comrade with a similar rank to Director Yang and others.
Even some of the procedures were brought over by people from the Ministry of Foreign Commerce and handed over to Gao Zhendong by this comrade. Gao Zhendong signed and completed them. There were very few staff from the Ministry of Foreign Commerce who had direct contact with Gao Zhendong.
It seems that the Ministry of Foreign Commerce is also well aware of Gao Zhendong's situation. Although it has to invite him in person due to cumbersome procedures, it still pays great attention to controlling the scope and level of insiders.
In the end, Gao Zhendong got a cash check from the bank and dealt with the Ministry of Foreign Commerce. Naturally, they would not come up with a bunch of cash.
Looking at this thin piece of paper, Gao Zhendong secretly thought that this Labor Day gift was really solid.
The comrade in charge of receiving him from the Ministry of Foreign Commerce smiled and said: "Director Gao, according to our agreement with our Citi partners, we estimate that we will meet several times every year in the future, haha."
Gao Zhendong smiled and chatted with him, while thinking to himself, it won’t take a few years.
After finishing his work, it was almost time to get off work. Gao Zhendong rode home from the Ministry of Foreign Trade.
As soon as he entered the door, Gao Zhendong called Lou Xiao'e who was busy at work: "Xiao'e, Xiao'e, come and see, what good things have I brought back?"
Lou Xiao'e brought the tea cup to Gao Zhendong and put it in front of her: "What good stuff?"
Gao Zhendong had a money-obsessed face: "Money, I brought money back, hehe."
The amount of money is a bit large, and it’s hard to show off outside. But it’s okay to show off in front of your own wife.
Lou Xiao'e smiled and said: "Yeah, good stuff, good stuff, I understand."
In her words, she didn't take this thing seriously at all, with a perfunctory tone like a child, eh , money is not important, what is important is the interaction with Gao Zhendong.
——I don’t care if my family Zhendong has money or not, it’s not as rich as mine anyway.
As he spoke, he took the check and took a look at the amount, and was stunned.
“So many?” Although he didn’t lose his composure, he was still a little surprised.
"Well, a book was published abroad, and this is the royalties."
Lou Xiao'e was relieved. She knew Gao Zhendong's ability to make money by writing books. Although these few domestic books were single There weren't that many, but the total number of them was quite large.
But turning her head, she was a little worried: "Zhendong, will it be too much? Is there no problem? Are we?"
Although she is naive, Lou Xiao'e is not stupid. With her background, some things Naturally, we should look beyond money.
Gao Zhendong shook his head: "It's okay, the superiors must know it. The Ministry of Foreign Commerce notified me to collect this money."
Oh, there is endorsement from the ministry, Lou Xiao'e Only then did I feel relieved, and then I felt very happy. My Zhendong ability was really first-class. It had nothing to do with how much money I had. What was important was that it proved that I had a good vision.
She looked at it carefully for a while, and then handed the check back to Gao Zhendong: "You can go to the bank another day to deposit it into your account and keep it. This amount of money is too big to leave here with me."
Gao Zhendong didn't say much, took it and kept it.
