Showbiz: My Daughter Says, 'My Dad Is Going to Die Soon'

What would happen if someone built a lithography machine?

At the Kyoto Science and Technology Expo, little Li Ran pouts: "It's not even as good as the toys my dad makes!"

She wheels a lithography machine, so battered its screws haven't even been tightened, into the exhibition hall, then happily pulls out a handful of 7nm chips.

Xu Tianhua, hailed as the pride of Huaxia and the father of its chips, happens upon the livestream his granddaughter is watching and cries out in astonishment.

The fans all say: "The toy looks so realistic, but you don't have to pull out a whole handful at once... Haha."

But the next scene leaves everyone dumbfounded.

The head of the expo seals off the venue. The five forces of air, land, cyberspace, cooperation, and civilian affairs mobilize together, and Kyoto goes on full military alert.

To obtain the lithography machine's blueprints and use them to benefit Huaxia, the titans of the tech world decide to pay a personal visit.

But at the little girl's home, they discover technologies centuries ahead of their time!

A 1 pm depth printer, a VR virtual world, a nuclear magnetic pulse reactor, an antigravity magnetic levitation saucer, a time machine, wormhole activation, eternal dark-star jumping, cosmic immortality gene modification...

What the hell, is this an alien base?!
