Chapter 818 Chip situation (for subscription)

Xiangtai Island, the headquarters of Taipower.

Zhang Zhongmou, the boss and chairman of Taipower, had a heavy expression on his face and stared at the management present, especially the foreign minister.

The life of the radio station is not easy, neither internal and external troubles are exaggerated.

For external concerns, the Center Group is developing and trial-producing the latest chips, and success is just around the corner.

This is going to compete with Taipower and open up business. As the saying goes, peers are enemies, and Taipower and Center Group must be peers and competitors.

Zhang Zhongmou stared at the Minister of Export Sales and said angrily, “How are the negotiations with MediaTek and Qualcomm recently? Are our orders enough?”

He was very dissatisfied with the Minister of Exports. He had lacked news about the mainland before, which gave the Central Group a chance to develop.

The export minister looked at Zhang Zhongmou and everyone present, opened his mouth, wanted to say something, but spit it out.

Can’t say anything, contradict the chairman, he must have no good fruit to eat.

He thought for a while and said solemnly, “The chairman, MediaTek and Qualcomm are all willing to increase the number of production orders, starting from May this year.”

Zhang Zhongmou showed a smile and said with a smile, “You have done a good job, and have achieved certain results recently.”

At the moment, the Minister of Export did not dare to answer, and listened silently.

Zhang Zhongmou didn’t think too much, and continued, “You are all elites of our Taipower. The previous actions of the Center Group made us very passive and tried to mass-produce the latest products. Rumors are that they are comparable to the latest chip manufacturing process.”

He has no reason not to be nervous. If there is a new process chip, it will undoubtedly be a disaster for Taipower.

After all, the Central Group has another idea of mass production, and the realization of mass production makes their chip manufacturing uncompetitive.

This puts them in a passive position, Taipower Group, with no leading technology, what can they use to compete with the Central Group?

The Central Group has always been at the younger brother level before, but now it has actually surpassed it.

In terms of chip manufacturing, it has been one to two generations behind. If they are allowed to catch up, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Zhang Zhongmou pondered for a moment and designated one of them to respond.

Minister of Technology!

He said solemnly, “Tell me, how can we improve our technology to make Taipower more competitive?”

The Minister of Technology pondered for a moment, then responded cautiously, “Chairman, judging from the current products, we are only slightly behind and should be able to catch up.”

Zhang Zhongmou sneered, and scolded the Minister of Technology directly, “I’m afraid you don’t know the situation, if there is no credible information, I would say this? They cost tens of billions, and even purchased lithography machines from Japan and South Korea. Trial production of 28-nanometer chips, and the yield rate is quite good!”

Of course, Zhang Zhongmou has sufficient basis. The former Central Group was acquired by someone, and it also has chip research and development.

The news must be true, the latest inside information he dug up from the Central Group!

The center group is in trial production, and the yield rate is as high as 50%!

The Center Group must be Taipower’s strongest competitor!

Haotian!

Feng Hao!

These names flashed across his mind, and his heart was constantly vigilant.

Rich and capable, this is a very important place.

Feng Hao now relies on Haotian mobile phone to make a lot of money and has very abundant cash flow. Haotian’s research and development of chips is naturally a multiplier.

At the same time, the two bosses of the Center Group are not ordinary people, they are experts in chip manufacturing.

According to the information he got, the Center Group definitely has the strength to mass-produce Haotian chips.

But now his subordinates doubt the accuracy of this news, how can he not be angry?

Short-sighted people are especially scary.

The Minister of Technology shivered, “Chairman, I know, we must step up the research and development and improvement of technology.”

He usually only focuses on technology and does not pay much attention to the outside world, so it is inevitable that he is a little out of society.

Seeing this, Liu Deyin, Zhang Zhongmou’s old partner, reminded him, “Chairman, we can form a chip alliance with other companies to jointly promote the manufacture of chips and equipment. We haven’t talked about the last time. , I’ll go out myself this time.”

Liu Deyin has made efforts and is currently negotiating. If he works harder, it may be possible.

In the future, technology research and development may not be achieved by a single company, and it will become easier to rely on alliances.

If Feng Hao was here at the moment, he would be very surprised. It turned out to be the plan and plan proposed by Liu Deyin.

The Alliance of Chip Makers!

Taipower and EU countries jointly set up an enterprise to jointly develop equipment, manufacturing and other sophisticated processes.

Hearing this, Zhang Zhongmou was stunned for a moment, then frowned, “Old Liu, is your idea really feasible? I think you’ve been working hard for a while, what is the result?”

The idea is good, but it is very difficult to implement.

This is to talk with European and American companies, negotiate, and then to research and development, which is not generally difficult.

Harder than going to the sky!

Liu Deyin didn’t suggest that one or two times, but it was not implemented in the end, which made Zhang Zhongmou feel that it would be difficult to achieve.

After all, Europe and the United States are very strict in this aspect, and they are not willing to let technology be revealed.

Liu Deyin nodded affirmatively. He already has a specific plan and is implementing it, “Chairman, we have a preliminary idea and are implementing it. It is definitely not easy for one or a few companies to develop and manufacture chips. It’s a big change. So we can only think of this way, and only if it succeeds can we talk about distribution.”

Zhang Zhongmou nodded slightly and agreed, “It’s worth doing this, I’ll implement it with you later.”

Then he looked at everyone present and said solemnly, “Taipower is currently encountering very big difficulties, everyone must overcome them and do everything well.”

Zhang Zhongmou simply said some words of encouragement and vigilance, and officially announced the end of this meeting.

Many executives left the meeting site, but Liu Deyin stayed. He knew that Zhang Zhongmou must have something to discuss with him.

“Old Zhang, you said that our plan is only short of key points, but there is still a lack of key contacts.”

“Old Liu, since you have proposed it, you must have a general idea or plan.”

“There are, but there are, but it takes multiple parties to negotiate and test each other. At the same time, pull in Qualcomm and let them be the contact in the middle.”

“This is feasible. You can try it. There is no way to do it. At present, it is difficult for us to develop it alone. Even if it is developed, the time span is too large, and I am afraid it will fall behind the central group.”

Zhang Zhongmou knew the predicament that Taipower encountered, which was also encountered by many chip manufacturers.

If you want to catch up with the central group, you must concentrate and cooperate with other companies.

Joint research and development and improvement of chip manufacturing equipment, manufacturing process, and manufacturing process will eventually enable Taipower to produce high-precision chips.

“Central group! I really didn’t expect that they could actually rise on the mainland.”

“Yes, Feng Hao of Haotian Group, he actually turned Zhang Rujing and Liang Mengsong over.”

“Haotian, Hacker, Central Group, China’s richest man, that’s not a vain reputation.”

Both Zhang Zhongmou and Liu Deyin were amazed at Feng Hao’s power. This kind of young man is definitely a rare encounter in a thousand years.

The two sighed silently, this is a formidable competitor.

…

Greentown, Haotian Group, Chairman’s Office.

Feng Hao greeted Jin Yue to sit down and said with a smile, “Sit down, don’t be polite, Mr. Jin, you are a great hero of Haotian now.”

When Jin Yue heard the words, he was a little baffled, “Brother Hao, you’ve gone too far, and praised me too much.”

Facing Feng Hao’s praise, he dared not admit it.

In front of Brother Hao, he is simply a younger brother.

Legendary figures like Brother Hao surpassed him in every aspect. Whether it is a start-up company, or its own technology is far beyond him.

This is his boss. When facing the boss, he has to be humble and humble.

Feng Hao didn’t tease Jin Yue any more, so he asked, “How’s the progress of the chip trial production recently?”

He hadn’t had time to confirm the relevant news with the Center Group, so he asked Jin Yue.

Jin Yue responded with joy, “Brother Hao, things are going very well. Now the central group has raised the yield rate of chips to 55%, and the speed of improvement is quite good.”

It’s only February 15th, and it’s only been one class month since the beginning of the year.

But in such a short period of time, the Center Group made a breakthrough in trial production, raising the yield rate to more than 50% in one fell swoop.

Excellent.

Feng Hao heard the words, his face was surprised, the progress was quite good, much earlier than the original plan.

According to the original idea, this achievement will not be achieved until at least mid-March, and now a breakthrough has been achieved, which is gratifying.

He praised, “Well done, it seems that you, the Center Group, and China Microelectronics are working very hard.”

To be commended!

Jin Yue replied humbly, “Brother Hao, mainly from the central group, is very strong in Microelectronics. Their manufacturing process has been transformed and improved, and finally the yield of manufacturing has been improved.”

Feng Hao nodded slightly, and immediately thought of the difficulty of the follow-up, “By the way, can the next plan be carried out as scheduled?”

In May, it reached the yield rate of six or seven layers, and in August, it reached the requirements of formal mass production, and the yield rate of eight and a half layers, or even nine layers.

Don’t look at the data gap behind it is not big, but the difficulty is geometrically doubled.

In the end, it often takes several times of effort and effort to improve the yield of the half-layer.

Jin Yue heard the words and thought about it, thinking of the efforts and commitments of many executives of Center Group and China Microelectronics.

He nodded decisively and said solemnly, “Brother Hao, we have the confidence to completely solve the problem of good quality.”

Feng Hao pondered for a moment, if the current progress is followed, the time should be in time.

He thought for a moment and asked, “The other thing is, what do you think about the future of Haotian chips?”

Jin Yue frowned when he heard Feng Hao’s words, and immediately understood what Brother Hao meant, “Brother Hao, do you mean to conduct research and development on a higher process?”

Brother Hao is probably asking about the research progress of Haotian chips, how to improve the technological content, and break through to higher-precision chips.

Feng Hao agreed, “Yes, Haotian chips have achieved good results and accumulated a lot of technology, but we still need to develop the way forward. Qualcomm and MediaTek are not weak in chip design and R&D capabilities, and they are working on the next step. One step of research and development must be ready to surpass us.”

Feng Hao is of course full of confidence in the future of Haotian chips, even more than Jin Yue’s confidence in Haotian chips.

After all, he has a black technology system in his hand, and there is a chip design scheme of a newer generation process in the exchange store.

Super high-precision chip design!

He has the technology of black technology, but Haotian chips cannot always rely on the design scheme in his hands.

There are new design aspects now, but what about the future?

Seek change and prepare for the future.

This is where he wants Haotian chips to change. He must accumulate technology, insist on innovation, and continuously invest in research and development.

It is impossible for his black technology system to always provide the latest generation of chip design solutions. In order to prevent accidents, Haotian chips have made more changes.

Accumulate updated technologies to the greatest extent and design better chip solutions.

Haotian Chip itself must have strong chip design capabilities, improve chip technology, and cultivate more chip experts.

Jin Yue looked solemn and told what he thought, “Brother Hao, we got the latest chip solution from you last time, we are currently planning to improve the 16nm process chip on the basis of the original, and achieve the latest chip as much as possible. Chip technology research and development and improvement.”

The future of Haotian chips is extremely important, and more sophisticated nanotechnology research must be carried out.

The subsidiary of Haotian Chip actually has a lot of pressure, and its products are related to the hardware configuration of Haotian mobile phones.

After all, Haotian and Qualcomm are now torn apart, and Haotian series of smartphones will only use Haotian chips in the future.

If Haotian Chip cannot improve the design and R&D of chips as soon as possible, causing the chips to lag behind other chip manufacturers, it will also cause Haotian mobile phones to fall from the altar.

Haotian mobile phone is now the overlord of smart phones, and it has fallen from the altar!

What the final result will be, don’t imagine.

Must be surpassed and forgotten.

And Haotian relies on Haotian mobile phones, which shows the importance of Haotian chips to Haotian.

Feng Hao nodded slightly and said in appreciation, “Very self-motivated, very good, study hard.”

Jin Yue naturally knew what to do, “Brother Hao, we will definitely study it well, thoroughly understand the technology of related chips, and strive to implement it.”

Feng Hao knew that Jin Yue was very experienced in this area and knew how to arrange it. “You can do it as you please. Remember, technology and patents must be done well, as well as confidentiality.”

The 32nm process chip he handed over to Jinyue before, he did very well, and there was no leakage.

This time the 16-nanometer process is probably the same, and I hope it will become a reality as soon as possible.

This is undoubtedly an epoch-making chip!

Jin Yue heard the words, nodded fiercely, and responded exactly, “I know, it will definitely live up to your hopes.”

The look on his face was very excited, but also very sincere, and Brother Hao paid too much attention to him.

“Okay, that’s it for today.”

“Okay, Brother Hao, then I’ll go back first.”

“Well, don’t forget things, work hard and try to get the 16-nanometer chip done”

“I’ll try my best, then I’ll go back. Goodbye Brother Hao.”

Jin Yue quickly stood up and said goodbye to Feng Hao.
