"Uncle, do you think that before I went to Huatai Company to help them solve technical problems?" Yang Jie said with a smile: "In fact, during that time, I have figured out Huatai's technical research and development capabilities and their various equipment purchase channels, that is, I am preparing to enter the communication equipment market one day, and now I just found Brother Luo and their technical team, of course I want to enter this market and Huatai for close combat." ”

"Isn't there too much money tight?" Yang Mingwei asked.

"Don't worry, this time I asked Huang Lao for a long vacation, that is, to come back to advance the trial production time of the VCD prototype, I think it will not take half a month to officially produce. Yang Jie said with confidence: "I am very confident in the VCD products we have launched, and if we launch them, we will definitely surprise the market, and with the reduction of the production cost of decoding chips in the future, we can enjoy relatively high profits for a period of time." ”

Yang Mingwei and Hu Huanzhi also seemed more excited.

"If we can sell a few thousand units in the first month, I'm satisfied. Yang Mingwei said with a smile.

He knew that Wan Yan sold 20,000 units at most last year, but because the product cost was too high and the marketing investment was too large, the company had been in a state of loss.

Think about it, Wanyan is priced as high as four or five thousand per unit, which is simply unaffordable for ordinary families nowadays, and it is naturally quite difficult to open the market.

"Uncle, in fact, you can be a little bolder. Yang Jie said with a smile: " Compared with Philip and Sony, these companies launched VCD products at least in the decoding chip has a great advantage, now Scooper sells for 70 US dollars per decoding chip, the cost of the decoding chip produced by my dad electronics factory can be controlled at about 20 US dollars if the technology is mature, and with the increase in production in the future, the cost will be lower, and another is that we have Mr. Hu These have a lot of technical experience in the production of VCD, we don't need to calculate the huge R & D cost in the product, we have a great advantage in labor cost compared with these foreign giant companies, I probably estimatedThe cost of the products we launch can be controlled within 2,000 yuan, and our ex-factory price is set at 3,000 yuan, and the profit is still very high. ”

"Will the price be lower?" Mr. Hu said.

"Our company has not yet set up its own sales channels, if we don't leave enough profits to the sellers, how can they make the effort to help us open up the market?" Yang Jie said: "But we still have to gradually set up our own sales channels in the future, and we can't squeeze out the profits to these channel providers, and we can start preparing after the company realizes profitability, and it is not too difficult to establish sales channels." ”

"It's still you kid who understands the market situation. Yang Mingwei said with a smile.

"Now there are fewer manufacturers on the market to launch VCD products, I estimate that there will be a lot of people who will see the business opportunities in this next year, and then swarm in, they only need to purchase ready-made decoding chips and assemble the movement to launch products, in order to seize the market, everyone is fighting a price war, when the time comes, there will be a sea of corpses, and after a few years of excitement, there will be a few left, and Sony and Philip, these companies that have mastered the core technology have made a lot of money, and when the time comes, they will use a shorter wavelength laser head on the read/write head, launch a higher capacity optical disc, use more advanced performance of the decoding chip, and then it will be an industrial upgradeAll the technical standards are in the hands of these companies, and the domestic manufacturers have no ability to resist at all, and they have worked hard to make money for processing, and most of them have taken away the majority of the money, and our company must not fall into such a situation. ”

"Listening to you say this, the more I think that no matter what we do, we must master the core technology, otherwise we will always be led by the nose. Yang Mingwei said with emotion.

"Yes, so when our prototype comes out, the company still has to call engineers to continue to improve the decoding chip I designed, and to develop it on the laser reading and writing head, at least in the past few years, our product profits are not low, and there are still enough funds to support our research and development." ”

After lunch, Yang Jie and Uncle Xiao also drove Luo Zhen in a Jinbei business car and they went around Yuetai City, and also sent them to the hotel to stay in the evening.

"Uncle, you entertain Luo Zhen and them in the past two days, and I will go to my father's electronics factory tomorrow to take a look and help them solve the technical matters of decoding chip production. Yang Jie said.

"You've just come back and you're so busy that you don't want to take a break?" Yang Mingwei asked.

"Uncle, engaging in technology research and development and manufacturing is hard work, and all kinds of things are complicated, and I am also mentally prepared. Yang Jie said with a smile.

"Who made you so powerful, even a person like Hu Huanzhi who has been engaged in production technology for one or two decades is very convinced by you. Yang Mingwei said with emotion.

"No matter how good I am alone, I still rely on a large number of engineers to help me complete many things, if our company can have tens of thousands of engineers, the company produces a large number of technical patents every year, then I can be more relaxed. Yang Jie said with a smile.

"You kid really dare to think that tens of thousands of engineers? Isn't that any different from those giant foreign companies?"

"People, you always have to be ambitious. Yang Jie said with a smile.

The next day, Yang Jie came to Huayue Electronics Factory, and he saw a crane truck unloading the large equipment on the truck.

There were a lot of trucks parked in the open space, all of which were wafer production equipment.

Yang Minghui, Xu Shaoqiu and other technicians also stood aside and asked the master on the crane to be careful, for fear of bumping into these equipment.

"Dad, yes, you got a 0.8-micron lithography machine from Nikon. Yang Jie said to Yang Minghui with a smile.

"Stinky boy, you won't go home when you come back, your mother is still going to the factory today to arrest you home!" Yang Minghui looked at Yang Jie and said with a smile, he reached out and rubbed his son's hair.

"Oh, Xiaojie is back?!" Xu Shaoqiu was also pleasantly surprised when he saw Yang Jie, and hurriedly walked over, and some technicians also came over happily.

"Dad, where did you get the equipment this time?" Yang Jie asked with a smile.

"I heard that the supplier in Hong Kong said that they bought it from Taiwan, it seems that the owner of this wafer factory invested a lot of money to produce memory particles, but the result was a big loss, he sold the equipment after changing hands, I went to Hong Kong with a few people from XCMG to see the equipment, the condition is not bad, cut the price a few times, and finally bought it back. ”

Yang Minghui said with a smile that he was quite satisfied with the equipment he bought.

"It's really good, how much did it cost to buy these devices back?" asked Yang Jie.

"I spent 8 million US dollars, and this time I also borrowed 50 million from the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, and I used foreign exchange reserves to do it. Yang Minghui said with a smile.

Now Huayue Electronics Factory basically has tens of millions of cash flow every month, and ICBC has naturally given a lot of green lights to this big customer.

"Xiaojie, you came back just in time this time, just in time to help us debug and install these equipment. XCMG said with a smile.

"Let's wait for the new plant to be built, and first solve the technical problems of decoding chip production. ”

"Let's go to the workshop first, and now there are more than a dozen technicians trying to solve the problems in the production process. Yang Mingwei said.

Yang Jie then followed his father and XCMG towards the production workshop.

"Who is this?" a new technician asked curiously when he saw this.

"This is the son of the factory director, I heard that he has now been recruited to the Chinese Academy of Sciences for graduate studies, and now the chips produced by the electronics factory are designed by him. A person next to him said.

"Such a?"

"Yes, don't you see that XCM, who usually has a stern face, smiled like he saw the flower girl after seeing him. ”

......

On this side, Yang Jie also looked at the shape of the picture of the internal circuit of the wafer chip magnified countless times on the computer screen, and he looked at several scrapped chips one after another, and also understood the reason why the production yield of decoding chips was low.

"XCMG, you see that the metal gate shape inside these chips is abnormal, which is the main reason for the abnormal function of the chips. Yang Jie said to Xu Shaoqiu.

"You say the problem is with etching or ion implantation?"

"If there is a problem with the etching process, the metal gate will not be in this shape, and the problem will be with the ion implanter. Yang Jie said: "I looked at the problems of several other chips and found that the temperature of the chips was too high when they were annealed, and these aluminum wire circuits were burned. ”

"The melting point of aluminum is too low, and it seems that you proposed to replace it with copper. XCMG nodded.
