Chapter 300 I, Qin Shi Huang, send you money!
TN-LCD technology is not difficult, and Stanley and Nitto Electric alone can help Shirakawa Electric reproduce this production process.
STN-LCD outperforms TN-LCD in all aspects, but this technology has not yet been released.
However, it is obvious that in addition to SIC, Suwa Seiko and Sharp are definitely developing their own next-generation LCD technology.
Although Baichuan Feng didn't know what their specific technical indicators were, it was nothing more than what the two professors had just said, enhancing the reality effect by changing the twisting angle of the liquid crystal molecules .
Since others are taking action, what is the progress of SIC? This is a question that Baichuan Feng is more concerned about.
“We have done a lot of verification on the principle, which basically meets the design requirements.
We are still exploring the implementation methods, and we will find the most economical and suitable LCD production process for large-scale manufacturing as soon as possible."
Hideo Nishino and his colleagues gave a relatively conservative answer, and all current verifications remain at the theoretical stage.
But if you want to take out the real thing, that’s another matter.
“I don’t understand your technical matters, but since STN is an improvement on TN technology, their processing techniques must be related.
As for the twisting angle of liquid crystal molecules, can it be achieved through external interference?"
Baichuan Feng really didn't understand the specific processing methods of liquid crystal, but thanks to having read a lot of fragmented information in his previous life, he also had a little understanding of how liquid crystal worked.
At this moment, when Shirakawa Hideki and Nishino Hideo heard Shirakawa Kaede's theory of external interference, their eyes lit up.
"Mr. Shirakawa, why don't you tell me your guess?"
"Hmm~" Baichuan Feng tried hard to recall the impression in his mind, "It is roughly through the effect of light or electric field to increase the distortion angle. Of course, this is only a passive method.
If the liquid crystal molecules can be twisted actively to break away from the angle restriction, the effect may be better. "
Shirakawa Hideki and Nishino Hideo looked at each other and thought this idea was quite novel.
"In theory, this is... a feasible method."
Not only is it feasible, but the method is also quite simple and crude. The more Shirakawa Hideki and the others thought about it, the more they felt that it was worth a try.
Instead of trying to figure out fixed configurations such as glass substrates and polarizers, it is better to try adding some additional props or methods.
For example, changes in light sensitivity can be achieved by adding photosensitive materials to liquid crystal reagents.
Both of them are experts in optoelectronic materials and they know exactly which materials are suitable.
As for the electric field, that's no problem either, the glass substrate of the LCD screen itself is conductive.
As long as they are connected to electricity and the applied voltage is changed, the electric field strength can be changed.
It’s wonderful. Shirakawa Hideki and Nishino Hideo even have a sense of sudden enlightenment now.
As the legend goes, President Shirakawa is indeed gifted with imaginative technical ideas.
Although the details of occasional ideas are rough, the general direction can easily give people a sense of sudden enlightenment.
"Mr. Shirakawa, maybe we can really give it a try." As he said this, Shirakawa Hideki picked up his notebook and started writing and drawing on it.
Having had an inspiration, he was afraid of missing something, so he couldn't wait to write down all the ideas in his mind.
In response, Shirakawa Feng smiled and waved his hands, "If these ideas can play a positive role in the development of LCD, then I will be satisfied.
As for the technical aspects, I'd like to trouble you two to spend more time on it. It would be best if we could get the physical product within this year."
For the time being, TN-LCD can still hold out. After all, STN-LCD has not yet appeared on the market, so Shirakawa Electric is not under that much pressure.
But the earlier the development, the earlier the results can be achieved, and those old friends are not idle.
Even if he only gets products for laboratory verification this year, Baichuan Feng will be satisfied.
Regarding Shirakawa Kaede's expectations, both professors said that if the method is feasible, they might be able to get verification samples this year.
The remaining LCD matters will be handed over to SIC, and the Kawasaki factory will soon start trial production.
It is already the end of February. By March, perhaps Shirakawa Electric's handheld game console will be able to use its own LCD.
Although the production capacity may not be able to meet the demand, as long as it is available, I will not be worried.
The incident with Suba Seiko taught Shirakawa Kaede a solid lesson.
It seems that in the future, even if Shirakawa Electric cannot produce some of the key components of its important products itself, it must have more than three channel distributors.
In addition, you can also invest in these material suppliers through various means and bundle interests after holding shares. This is the most secure way of cooperation.
After arranging the LCD matter, another important matter in Baichuan Feng's mind came to fruition.
In addition, another important arrangement this year is the construction of a battery factory.
However, because the site was chosen in Akita, Shirakawa Kaede plans to place the battery R&D center in the Northeast as well.
As for the talents needed in this area and the development of R&D projects, he chose Northeastern University this time.
In terms of strength in science and engineering, Tohoku University may be slightly inferior to Tokyo Institute of Technology.
But in terms of metal and communication engineering, Northeastern University is absolutely superior in Japan.
As for the energy industry such as batteries, various material research institutes of Northeastern University come in handy.
However, Baichuan Holdings is currently negotiating cooperation with the school, so there is a high probability that there will be no problem with this matter.
Once everything is settled, Baichuan Feng will go to Sendai for a real visit.
The development goals for LCD and batteries will basically be determined in the first half of the year and the first quarter, and research work will also be carried out simultaneously.
If these two things are done, Shirakawa Feng will be much more relaxed at least in the first half of the year.
But here at Shirakawa Holdings, since March is almost here, all subsidiaries have to conduct financial settlements.
Although Baichuan Feng didn't need to do anything specific, the various signatures alone would keep him busy for a while.
On this day, Shirakawa Kaede was sitting in the office, signing documents one by one, when suddenly Assistant Komatsu knocked on the door and walked in.
"Mr. President, there is a man outside who claims to be your uncle and wants to see you."
"Who?" Baichuan Feng raised his head from the pile of documents and looked over in surprise.
"He said he is your uncle." Assistant Komatsu looked at his president with some uncertainty.
Although she didn't know whether Baichuan Feng really had an uncle, the gentleman seemed to have some extraordinary bearing.
So, Assistant Komatsu was undecided and decided to ask his own president in person.
When Baichuan Feng heard Assistant Komatsu's answer, he was stunned for a moment, and then spoke without hesitation.
"Blast it out!"
Damn, it’s only 82 years and already we’re using the “Qin Shi Huang giving money” trick?
Are all the Japanese devils so cunning now?
"Eh" Assistant Komatsu didn't hear clearly the muttering of his president behind him.
Who is Qin Shi Huang? There seems to be no such title of emperor in Japan?
Shirakawa Feng waved his hand, signaling Assistant Komatsu not to worry about it.
"Just let him leave anyway."
"Hai!" This time Assistant Komatsu understood.
It seems that the gentleman was another stranger who made up an unreliable reason just to meet his own president.
Yes, this is not the first time that Assistant Komatsu has encountered such a situation.
There was once a young girl who claimed to be the president’s high school girlfriend who came to the door, but Assistant Komatsu took one look at her and asked her to leave.
You look so ugly, and you still have the nerve to call yourself the president's girlfriend?
Poor acting!
Assistant to tea appraiser Xiao Song said that these methods were too childish.
But today I was fooled by this middle-aged man, because he really looked like that.
Now that she has received instructions from the president, she is prepared to be impolite.
Assistant Xiaosong rushed straight to the reception hall downstairs in anger.
At this time, Tozawa Masaharu, with his hands behind his back in the hall, was looking at the surrounding environment leisurely.
Shirakawa Electric has such a big reputation, but its office building is so stingy.
Is it because of poor management, or is it that my cheap nephew is too stingy?
This won’t do. Even if you are very poor, as the image of the company, the office building should at least be more impressive.
Just like the Tozawa family in my own family, although it is a bit declining, the mansion in Tokyo is at least decorated to look presentable.
Well, at this time, Masaru Tozawa has already put himself in the position of manager of Shirakawa Electric.
He was thinking about how to improve the business performance of Shirakawa Electric in the future. The first thing to do was to move the office to an office building in the port area.
Well, I have some connections with Mitsui & Co., so I should be able to rent a building from them.
And in Taito District...
Ta-ta-ta…
Tozawa Masahiro was performing various micro-manipulations in his mind, but before he could reach the peak of his life, his train of thought was interrupted by the sound of footsteps behind him.
He turned around and saw that, coincidentally, the person who went to report had returned.
Before the angry Assistant Komatsu could speak, Tozawa Masaru had already adjusted his clothes in a reserved manner.
"Well, young lady. I'm not lying to you, am I? I am indeed your president's uncle. So..."
"go out!"
"Eh?" Tozawa Masaou was choking back his words halfway through.
"You...did you tell your president the truth that I'm his uncle and my last name is Tozawa?"
When Masao Tozawa saw Assistant Komatsu's angry expression, he thought he had heard it wrong.
Tozawa? Hmm, I seem to have forgotten this.
But soon, Assistant Xiaosong shook his head confidently, "No."
Tozawa Masao was furious.
"But our president said that if you are his uncle, then he is Qin Shi Huang, asking you to pay him money!"
Yes, that's right! Assistant Komatsu recalled in his mind that this is what the president said just now.
Although he was just talking to himself, Assistant Komatsu was so smart that he memorized it by rote.
You see, now it’s being used.
"Qin Shi Huang?"
Unlike Assistant Komatsu who was smug , Tozawa Masaru was simply confused.
What does this have to do with Qin Shihuang? Could it be that his nephew is a fan of Chinese culture?
As a former ethnic Chinese, Tozawa Masaru is quite knowledgeable about Eastern culture and even knows a lot of Chinese characters.
But he really couldn't understand what the relationship was between Qin Shihuang and his nephew.
Could it be that he has the royal blood of Qin Shi Huang? That shouldn't be the case. I haven't heard that my cheap brother-in-law has any extraordinary family heritage.
When Tozawa Masao was falling into self-doubt, Assistant Komatsu added another blunt sentence.
"Anyway, our president asks you to leave now. This is Shirakawa Electric, not the stage of Super Transformers."
