Chapter 1169: The Father of Huaxia Semiconductor

"One bamboo pole is easy to bend, but three hemp ropes are difficult to break. A single flower is not spring, and the garden is full of purple and red spring. ”

Looking at the sky outside the window in the distance, Duan Yongping muttered inexplicably.

He suddenly understood why Fang Chen insisted on opening up some of the company's technologies to suppliers like He Fatzi at that time.

Although he went to Xiaobawang to inspect the circle, he was not very satisfied with the current R&D and manufacturing of the core components of the DVD player, but he had to admit that this was already the result of He Fatzi and their life to do it, and they exhausted all kinds of relationships and means.

And the effect is much better than that of Qingtian himself.

If this laser head were to be done by itself, it would probably not be possible to invite more than a dozen professors from the Department of Physics of Sun Yat-sen University to participate in the research and development, let alone academicians to give special guidance to it.

There is no way, there are too many things that Qingtian needs to research and do, and it is naturally difficult to take care of all the scientific research projects in place.

He estimated that if the laser head was handed over to Qingtian to develop by himself, it would be at least half a year to a year later than He Fatzi's research progress before he could come up with a qualified laser head.

In addition, Qingtian's shareholding in supplier enterprises is not only to support suppliers, but also to increase the control of suppliers, forming an important weight for the connection of interests.

Especially for the former, two or three hundred million yuan is nothing at all for Qingtian at this time, but for supplier companies, it is a growth rate for development.

Hearing Duan Yongping say this, Fang Chen's heart suddenly became a lot more relieved, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and he said with a chuckle: "No way, Huaxia is too big, and the career that Qingtian wants to do is too big, there is no way to monopolize it all by one person, it must need the help of others, and the wisdom and energy of everyone can realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation." ”

Huaxia is really too big and too big, so big that it has become the only country with 41 industrial categories, 191 medium categories, and 525 sub-categories of all industrial categories recognized by the United Nations, and nearly half of the more than 500 sub-categories of production capacity and technology rank first and second, which cannot meet the Chinese people's yearning for a prosperous and strong country and a better life.

Even Fang Chen once thought that he needed to realize Huaxia in everyone's minds, whether Huaxia should be the first in these more than 500 subcategories.

Of course, it may not be, but like those small Nordic countries, there is probably no possibility that the whole people can live well by relying on one or two enterprises.

And what Optimus wants to do is too big, so big that with his own strength, Optimus can't accomplish it alone.

So he had to rely on the power of the people.

The conversation has already been over, and there is no good solution for the time being, so the soldiers can only come to block the water and cover the earth, Fang Chen and Duan Yong were polite and polite, and then slipped away directly and went to Su Yan for dinner.

He estimated the amount of work he had accumulated over the past few days, and estimated that Duan Yongping would not be busy until twelve o'clock tonight.

There is no way, although he has been working very hard to deal with these specific affairs, and he can handle it by himself below, but Qingtian is too big, and there are too many things that need to be handled by the highest level of the president every day, and he really can't finish it.

Moreover, he is not good at dealing with these chores, let alone Duan Yongping, who does these jobs all day long, and understands the situation, so he naturally can't handle it easily, and can only be regarded as reluctant, stumbling, and can only be handled without a big fork.

He even expected that if Duan Yongping came back three or four days late, the documents that needed to be processed would be piled up into a small mountain.

But to be honest, he is still a little complacent about being able to carry down the work of these three days without making too many mistakes.

After all, he himself knows very well that for a business wizard like Lao Duan who can be marked as SSS-level in the game, he was not even a B-level in his previous life, and judging from the situation in the past three days, although he can't become an SSS-level, but he can be an S-level, and the existence of the SS-level is still okay.

It seems that he has grown a lot over the years, and he has grown a lot.

Lao Duan is back, and the company doesn't need him to be busy, and the moving picture expert group's development conference on the yer3 standard, which is the familiar MP3 format, still has a whole month to start.

The only job I have some hope for now is just a meeting with Zhang Rujing.

But the specific time of the trip and where to meet has not yet been decided, and even Fang Chen has already thought about it, if Zhang Rujing is inconvenient to come to see him, he will go to the United States to find Zhang Rujing.

As a result, Fang Chen became an unemployed vagrant, except for accompanying Su Yan to school, eating, and decorating the villa in the rose garden all day long, it can almost be said that he has nothing to do, and he doesn't even bother to listen to the financial classes under the same campus.

Sometimes, when Fang Chen thought about it, he felt a little ashamed, this Shuimu's century-old school history probably produced a student like him who didn't even listen to his own professional classes all day.

But after thinking about it again, he was probably also the only richest student in Mizuki, and Fang Chen's ashamed heart instantly calmed down a lot.

After all, he didn't embarrass Mizuki.

Besides, Mizuki's lessons are indeed good, but can he learn something by listening to it, and can he apply it to Optimus?

Not necessarily, I'm afraid.

After all, there is still a lot of gap between reality and theory, and there are so many lessons he misses that it makes no sense to listen to one or two lectures in a cold manner.

Su Yan was very happy all day long, and every day seemed to be like the New Year, silly and silly.

For her, her sweetheart finally came back, and he accompanied her all day long, and as soon as the two were free, they ate all kinds of delicious food, isn't this just like the New Year?

And she's also been hooked on renovation lately.

I have to say that this feeling of dressing up your love nest with your own hands is really good, and it makes people feel a sense of happiness from the heart.

It's just that within a few days, Su Yan's happy and beautiful little day was suddenly interrupted.

Zhang Rujing agreed to see Fang Chen, and set off to Yanjing the next day after he agreed.

Sitting in the Qingtian Building, his long-lost chairman's office, Fang Chen smiled and looked at this veteran who was seventy years old in his previous life and still worked in the front line of Huaxia chips, and was known as the father of Huaxia Semiconductor.

In the previous life, in the field of chip manufacturing in China, SMIC, which is a well-known leader and the only one that can compete with Western developed countries in integrated circuit wafer manufacturing, was founded by Zhang Rujing.

SMIC accounts for 6% of the global pure-play foundry market share in the pure-play foundry industry, ranking fourth in the world.

The world's No. 1 supercomputing Shenwei Taihu Light chip is SMIC's foundry.

To be able to do this in a country like China, where technology is blocked by various kinds, it can be said that SMIC has succeeded.

SMIC's success is far from Zhang Rujing's selfless dedication and support over the years.

It can be said that Zhang Rujing, who single-handedly dragged the backward Huaxia into the chip track with the most cutting-edge technology, which made the mainland have the toughness that is not afraid of being stuck by the United States today.

And Zhang Rujing himself is a well-known legend.

Zhang Rujing went to Wanwan with his father when he was less than a year old, and then was admitted to Wanwan University with excellent results, and then went to the United States to study, and obtained a master's degree in engineering and a doctorate in electronics.

And because of his outstanding talent, Zhang Rujing, who graduated with a doctorate at the age of 29, was appreciated by Jack Kilby, the Nobel Prize winner in physics and the inventor of integrated circuits, and joined his team at Texas Instruments, the American semiconductor giant, and has since been linked to the world's top chip research.

However, in the 60s, the Chinese emerged in the American semiconductor industry, with talented engineers and outstanding entrepreneurs emerging, and Zhang Rujing's immediate boss at Texas Instruments, Dr. Shao Zifan, was the world's top chip manufacturing plant construction expert.

Therefore, under the support and cultivation of Shao Zifan, Zhang Rujing grew rapidly and became the technical backbone of the company.

But after eight years of working technically, Texas Instruments suddenly arranged for Zhang Rujing to demarcate the site and build a factory.

Such a change in position happened to force Zhang Rujing to be the most talented and good at one thing.

Zhang Rujing first built 4 chip production plants in Texas, the United States.

Immediately after to Europe and Italy, and then to Southeast Asia, Dongwu, Singapore, Wanwan, a series of 10 factories were built.

A factory is planted, and clusters of "chip talents" grow.

Zhang Rujing has become the vane of the chip industry, and wherever he goes to build a factory, it has become a hot spot in the chip market.

His peers called him "the master of factory construction", and Texas Instruments became a "seeder", scattering chip seeds everywhere.

The whole world followed the boil, shouting the slogan: "Chip technology is in the United States, production is in Southeast Asia".

However, after Zhang Rujing's career was thriving and he became a well-known factory construction expert in the global chip industry, his father asked Zhang Rujing such a question: "When will you go to the mainland to build a factory?"

As a Chinese and a smelting expert, Zhang Rujing's father has always remembered the development of science and technology in Huaxia, and has always hoped that Zhang Rujing can make some contributions to Huaxia.

So, on the occasion of Zhang Rujing's retirement after working in Texas Instruments for 20 years, Zhang Rujing went to China to inspect and prepare to build a factory in the mainland to fill the country's gap in chip technology.

However, Huaxia did not build an integrated circuit wafer manufacturing plant, that is, the foundation of the chip factory.

In desperation, he had no choice but to take people back to Wanwan and start the World University Company.

Zhang Rujing simply hopes to build one or two factories in Wanwan, and then three or four copies to the mainland, so that the mainland's chips can be developed.

I have to say that in the construction of the chip factory, Zhang Rujing really has outstanding talents.

Only three years after the establishment of the world's large company, this "factory building madman" began to make money in the chip industry, which burned money and had no bottom of money. And it has become Wanwan's third largest chip factory after TSMC and UMC.

Zhang Rujing's intentions were so obvious that people from all sides were eyeing him.

One day three years later, Zhang Rujing was called to a private restaurant by an industry bigwig in Wanwan and had a secret meeting for four hours. In the end, Zhang Rujing was given two choices: either get out of the chip industry, or agree to sell the world's big company.

The second way is to protect Zhang Rujing and be rich.

Surprised, angry, confused, and too late to lament, the shareholders of TSMC and Shida closed the acquisition for $5 billion without telling Zhang Rujing.

Although the position of general manager was still retained, Zhang Rujing lost face and lost actual control of the company.

Therefore, in the second month of the acquisition, Zhang Rujing gave up all the properties of Wanwan, and registered "SMIC" in the Cayman Islands with the $1.4 billion raised by his connections over the years.

It was the first year of the Internet crisis, the millennium.

In the millennium, more than 85% of the chips are imported, and the high-end chips are all foreign goods.

After working in this industry for most of his life, Zhang Rujing understands better than anyone that in the information age, chips are the core of national security.

His construction of a factory in the mainland essentially means the transfer of core technology.

At that time, the United States had a rule: as long as factories were built in the mainland of China, they would not sell high-tech equipment.

The Wanwan authorities have explicitly restricted high-tech industries from investing in the mainland.

At that time, China was using equipment obsolete from Western countries and learning outdated old technology. If you want to introduce some advanced production equipment and technology, it is more difficult than climbing to the sky.

The United States does not sell equipment, and Zhang Rujing bypassed the United States and came back with a batch of the same equipment from the Netherlands and Sweden.

There is no talent, Zhang Rujing Guangfa hero sticker, in more than a year, gathered more than 400 international chip industry technical engineers.

They come from Singapore, Dongwa, Wanwan, Italy and other parts of the world, some are Massachusetts doctors, some work at Bell Labs, and there are also old subordinates of Zhang Rujing and old employees of TSMC...... He gave up his high salary abroad and accumulated decades of qualifications to start from scratch at SMIC.

In terms of fund raising, he attracted investment from many companies such as SIIC, Goldman Sachs, Walden, H&Q and Vertex, raising $1 billion, and another $630 million in 2003, which is almost worth a "909 Project" alone.

In addition, it is said that in order to break through the equipment embargo, Zhang Rujing found five church organizations in the United States to vouch for him, guaranteeing that SMIC's chip technology would not be used for military purposes, and finally obtained an export license.

There is only one purpose: to take Huaxia as a starting point and be the first in the world's chip industry!

However, two years after SMIC's development, the reactionaries of the Wanwan authorities actually ordered Zhang Rujing to withdraw his investment from the mainland within six months, and fined 15 million Taiwan dollars one after another, and claimed that the fine would be imposed until he withdrew his investment.

Seeing that Zhang Rujing was unmoved, he immediately issued a wanted warrant, canceling Zhang Rujing's Taiwanese status and not allowing him to set foot in Wanwan for 10 years.

As a result, the Wanwan Company, which helped Zhang Rujing raise funds, was affected by the Zhulian, and the Taiwanese businessmen who invested also began to withdraw their investment.

However, Zhang Rujing did not show weakness, and directly announced that he would give up his household registration in Wanwan and disassociate himself from Wanwan.
