Chapter 223 Names Return
June 27th. 6:08 AM.
The venue for the press conference at Diaoyutai State Guesthouse Building No. 5.
After Lin Wei came down, the flashbulbs were still going off, followed by Dimaier and Linenti. The three of them were stopped by several reporters at the entrance to the central area.
"Mr. Lin, when will Vilan be able to provide simulation deployment for the market?"
Lin Wei turned her head. The gun in her hand had already been taken away by a staff member. Two bodyguards stood behind her.
She glanced at the reporter from Economic Observer who had asked her the question.
"In early July," she said. "Hwa-Hsiang Technology, in collaboration with AVIC MEMS, using the Vilan simulation platform as a foundation, launched the first batch of 45nm SoCs for mass production."
She paused for a moment.
"Not only did Vilan deliver the simulation deployment," she said. "The other five members of the alliance also delivered simultaneously."
The sound of camera shutters clicking incessantly.
The three people behind them couldn't keep up. They had only just heard those three sentences from the press conference. The names of those representatives from CCTV, People's Daily, Reuters, and CCTV-13 who hadn't been mentioned in the three reports three years ago criticizing the paper for "insufficient reproduction" were still being brought up on stage today. They couldn't lift their heads.
Lin Wei glanced at them. He had three metal ornaments on his collar. He didn't look at the reporters. He didn't look at the main building. He only looked at the back of Wei Lan's head.
The empty seat at Infineon was removed by staff. The nameplate was taken away. The metal plaque was removed. Even the words "No Comment" in the venue were photographed. They were photographed as "empty".
The Reuters report tonight included this sentence: "China's Weilan. An unnamed name. Today, it has moved from the back to a position on the IEC main board."
He followed that sentence with, "His name wasn't mentioned. His name is Lin Che."
A Reuters senior doesn't need to be named. He's reporting exclusively.
Reports on Safranbolu Freeman. His last thirty minutes. BBC cross-report. NHK cross-report. The New York Times exclusive Chinese edition cross-report.
The name changed three times in thirty minutes.
June 27th. 6:28 AM.
The central press conference reported that "Villan was pushed onto the IEC backbone." "Three companies simultaneously paid 250 million euros in compensation." The "Global MEMS Industry Alliance" was also mentioned.
The following text is extremely popular.
Top trending portal: "Three companies wrongly compensated Vilan with 50 million euros. East Asia MEMS recovers from its mistakes in three years." Viral.
Top of Yike Portal: "Vilan merges with IEC MEMS as the new backbone. China will take power in three years." Viral.
Lionsgate's top portal. "Three years later, Wei Lan walks this path. Behind Wei Lan are tens of thousands of people in China's MEMS industry who simultaneously reinvested over three years." A viral sensation.
A pop-up news ad reads: "Three companies personally compensate. Wei Lan steps onto the IEC. East Asia three years later."
CCTV News Broadcast preview: "Tonight at 7:15 PM. Reuters reports on Wei Lan. CCTV-13 reports on Wei Lan. 'Focus Interview' tonight at 7:30 PM. Special Feature: Wei Lan's Three Years."
This morning at 5:00 AM, following the press conference at 6:28 AM, the three terms "China's Three Companies, Vilan, and IEC" simultaneously entered the minds of millions of businesses across China. From Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Hangzhou, Chengdu, and Dongguan, they entered the lives of those behind the scenes. They entered the lives of wives, parents, middle-aged people, those taking their children to school, and those holding their phones at the market.
"Weilan is in those obscure laboratories in Shanghai."
Chinese names are not publicly named. However, after Chinese names were not publicly named, they ended up in the mobile phones of hundreds of millions of Chinese people.
first name.
Lin Che.
They didn't name names in the reports. The senior figures in the reports didn't name names. Reuters didn't name names. The BBC didn't name names. CCTV didn't name names. The People's Daily didn't name names.
The name was mentioned by netizens even though it wasn't explicitly named.
On Chinese social media platforms like Weibo and WeChat Moments, the phrase "that paper from three years ago" was searched. Chinese netizens searched for it. After searching, they unearthed the June 2018 issue of *Nature Materials* rejecting that paper, the subsequent closure of a niche laboratory at Shanghai Microelectronics, and the subsequent questioning of a person named "Lin Che" about whether he wanted to change projects. On Chinese social media, "Lin Che" was followed by "Shanghai Microelectronics 2018".
The following sequence of events is: "The replication team failed to reproduce the virus." "The obscure lab closed." "A car accident occurred."
The following phrases are: "The name walked out of that laboratory, was replaced by Wei Lan, walked out of the house, was replaced by Wei Lan, Wei Lan went up, Wei Lan went to the IEC main trunk."
After netizens unearthed these posts, the hashtag "#ThatNameFromThreeYearsAgo" trended on Weibo. At 8:30 PM, it was ranked third. At 9:20 PM, it was ranked second. At 10:03 PM, it became the top trending topic.
After trending at number one on Weibo at 10:03 PM, the name entered the minds of Chinese people. It appeared on Weibo, on mobile phones, on the phones of people around them, and later in their WeChat Moments.
Three years ago, the name stepped out of that obscure laboratory, onto the IEC stage, and became the number one trending topic on Weibo.
……
June 27th. 5:20 PM.
Shanghai. Vilan Headquarters. Thirty-second floor. Lin Wei's office. Lights on. Three sheets of paper on the table.
Jiang Mingyuan pushed open the door. He held three handwritten notes in his hand.
One image shows the number of times the Vilan brand was mentioned after the Central Committee released its report today.
"Starting from 6 a.m. today," he said. "The brand mentions of Vilan have reached 1.3 billion times. In the past thirty years, no other Chinese industry has achieved this."
He paused for a moment.
"In the mentions, three names were mentioned simultaneously."
He glanced at Lin Wei.
"Lin Wei. Wei Lan." He paused. "...Lin Che."
Lin Wei lowered her head. She didn't lift the pen in her hand.
"Weibo," Jiang Mingyuan said. "#ThatNameFromThreeYearsAgo# is trending at number one. It has 3.8 billion views."
He paused.
"A few programs this afternoon," he said. "CCTV's 'Focus Interview' will air tonight at 7:30 PM. A special program, 'Three Years.' It will be broadcast simultaneously on CCTV, Reuters, and People's Daily."
"Multiple intersections." He paused. "None of them mentioned 'Lin Che'."
He looked up.
"I won't click," he said. "But netizens are all clicking."
Lin Wei nodded.
He took out a second handwritten note.
"This is from the Information and Electronics Division of the Chinese Academy of Engineering," he said. "At 3:20 PM, President Chen of the Chinese Academy of Sciences sent a 'no surprises' message."
He glanced at Lin Wei.
"Su Chen," he said. "passed two rounds of 'special review'."
Lin Wei didn't look at him.
"The Department of Thinking and Observation, located under the Department of Information and Electronics, has established a 'Special Review' process. This is the route the Chinese Academy of Engineering is taking this year, limited to two rounds of interviews with the founder of Liangying, without requiring the completion of the regular five-round review. This year, the Chinese Academy of Engineering has established the 'Special Review' process, focusing on 'major innovation,' 'interdisciplinary collaboration,' and 'industry-driven development.'"
He paused for a moment.
"The higher-ups told Dean Chen. Su Chen. Second round passed."
He paused for a moment.
"Next round. July 5th."
He paused for a moment.
"Special Review Meeting of the Chinese Academy of Engineering. July 5th. Beijing."
He paused for a moment.
"The higher-ups want Su Chen to take the stage."
Lin Wei looked up.
She glanced at Jiang Mingyuan. She didn't say anything.
Su Chen is twenty-eight years old this year. Su Chen is the first author of that paper published in those obscure labs at Shanghai Microelectronics. Su Chen went from being a mediocre researcher to a key contributor three years ago. Su Chen is now a key drafter of the new IEC MEMS standard.
Su Chen took the stage. Su Chen was selected by the Chinese Academy of Engineering as a "special reviewer," which is the same route the Chinese Academy of Engineering set up for Liang Ying this year.
The founder of Liangying is Lin Che.
Lin Wei was acting as intermediary. Su Chen was in charge of the main discussion.
Su Chen will be next to join the Chinese Academy of Engineering.
The Chinese Academy of Engineering does not use the name "Lin Che".
The name is not being taken away.
But the first author of that paper from those obscure labs at Shanghai Microelectronics took the stage. Lin Wei was the one who took the place. Su Chen was recruited into the Lin family business three years later. Su Chen was put in the lead speaker position three years later.
Su Chen took over as acting head of state.
Bring that name on stage.
Jiang Mingyuan took out the third one.
"This is the People's Daily, July 1st, tomorrow morning at 8:00 AM," he said. "The People's Daily is going to publish it."
He paused for a moment.
"The Chinese Academy of Engineering will hold a special review meeting on July 5th, focusing on Su Chen, the founder and current lead negotiator of China Liangying Medical Technology."
"Published by People's Daily." He paused. "Published on behalf of the higher-ups."
Lin Wei glanced at the handwritten note. The name of the *People's Daily* was on it. Above it was the word "People." Published by the *People's Daily*. "Special Review" by the Chinese Academy of Engineering. Su Chen. He went on stage.
She lowered her head.
She glanced at the handwritten notes on the table. They included names like "Lin Che," "Shanghai Microelectronics," "East Asian Affairs," and "Niche Lab."
She picked up the pen. She understood. This morning they were on the IEC mainframe. This afternoon they were trending on social media. On July 5th they were on the Chinese Academy of Engineering's "special review."
Three years.
In three years, I've been replaced. Replaced by Wei Lan. Replaced by Su Chen. Replaced by five academicians from the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Replaced by the simultaneous progress of China's MEMS industry over three years. Today I've reached the IEC. On July 5th, I'll reach the Chinese Academy of Engineering.
His name wasn't called. He was put on stage in place of someone else.
She looked up.
"Tomorrow morning, on the Vilan official website, we'll post: 'Su Chen attends the special review meeting of the Chinese Academy of Engineering on July 5th.'"
"Tomorrow at 5:12 noon." She paused for a moment. "One hour after the People's Daily."
"Yes," Jiang Mingyuan said. He stood up.
He walked out the door.
The door is closed.
She put down the pen she was holding.
She looked down. She looked at the desktop. Three handwritten notes on the desktop. Brand mentions. Chinese Academy of Engineering. People's Daily.
Three years.
She kept track for three years.
