“Did you come to the mainland for work this time, Mr. Puller?” Jasper asked, seemingly without any ulterior motive.
Todd never wanted to hide his intentions. He placed his fork down as a mark of respect and said, “I did come here to work. Mainly, Nawait Semiconductor Manufacturing came up with a 1.2-micron chip recently and a lot of manufacturers in the country are very interested in it.”
“What? 1.2-micron?” Greg could not help but exclaim.
Before this, Todd had already noticed Greg, who was sitting next to Jasper. He smiled and said, “Yes, do you know about this, Sir?”
“I know about it very well. Hello, Mr. Puller. I am the manager of Blau Mobiles Manufacturing Company, Greg Costa,” Greg said excitedly.
“Blau Mobiles?” Todd frowned and tried his best to rake his memory, but he could not remember where he had heard this name before.
“A few days ago, our company came up with our first prototype and we’re using the 1.6-micron chip that’s going to be obsolete soon. So, it’s normal if you don’t know me, Mr. Puller,” Greg said in embarrassment.
Jasper smiled and said, “I invested in Blau Mobiles.”
Todd lifted his eyebrows as his expression evidently became more amiable.
“I see, hello, Mr. Costa.”
“You’re still using the 1.6-micron chip? Excuse my bluntness, but that technology has died out in the country. If you’re interested, we can supply you some 1.2-micron chips.”
“Really?” Greg was so surprised that he almost screamed.
Currently, there were no domestic companies that could independently produce micron chips, they were all relying on imports from either Nawait Semiconductor Manufacturing or several monopolies in the United States or Germany.
However, the goods that these companies could provide to the country were all technologies that were quickly phasing out, while the prices were more higher than the latest technology products sold in their own countries.
