Chapter 349: Chip Architect
Chapter 349 Chip Architect
The three of them co-founded, all of whom had previously worked in large semiconductor companies in Silicon Valley, Ripper, was their first venture. ”
As far as Xia Bing knows, Yang Chenglin is a chip architect who used to work for Micron and is also well-known in the industry.
As for the rest, she didn't know.
"Chip architect?"
Xia Bing's words evoked Hu Yang's memories, and in his mind, there was really such a character as Yang Chenglin.
In that time and space, Yang Chenglin, as an excellent chip architect, started his first business in Silicon Valley, but ultimately failed.
Later, he returned to China and founded a chip design company on his own. Yang Chenglin's company not only squeezed into the top ten in the domestic industry, but also successfully listed on the "Science and Technology Innovation Board".
"Mr. Xia, I need to think about this matter. Why don't you stay for one more day, it's time for the regular meeting of the decision-making committee, and I'll ask Assistant Lin to inform you later. ”
The regular meeting of the decision-making committee is a mechanism to assist Populus euphratica in making decisions. Hu Yang and everyone felt that it was necessary to discuss the topics before they could go to the meeting.
If everyone thinks that there is no need to discuss, Populus euphratica will make a decision.
"Okay, then I'll go to the Deep Sea Branch first. ”
Huijia International Investment (Deep Sea) Company is downstairs, and since Xia Bing has come to Deep Sea, he must go and have a look.
Hu Yang immediately asked Lin Yan to call the executive committee members of the decision-making committee to hold a regular meeting tomorrow morning in the small conference room on the 87th floor of Huijia International Investment Building.
Later in the evening, Hu Yang made a phone call to Sun Yunyi, who was far away in Silicon Valley.
At this time, it should be that the other party has just gone to work, and the phone rang for a while before answering.
"Mr. Hu, I'm really embarrassed. There was a morning meeting in the company just now, and my mobile phone was muted, which I didn't hear just now. ”
Sun Yunyi is still able to speak as always, which makes Hu Yang feel a little self-blaming.
"Ahem, I just thought you were up and going to work, but I didn't expect you to be busy. Then I'll make a long story short, do you know this company and Yang Chenglin?"
Hu Yang can also call Tom of Robert's agency, after all, the company has signed a long-term cooperation agreement with the other party. However, he wanted to learn about Yang Chenglin and the company he founded from another angle.
Sun Yunyi was stunned when he heard "Ruipo Company", and when he heard Hu Yang mention Yang Chenglin, he immediately smiled: "Mr. Hu, you asked the right person this time." Brother Yang and I are good friends, and our relationship has always been good. I know he co-founded a company, but I don't really know the exact name. ”
Ripper has only been established for a long time, and it has not even received the first round of financing, so it can be said that it is an obscure small company.
"That's great. Mr. Sun, could you please help me ask Dr. Yang Chenglin, does he have any ideas for returning to China for development? To be honest, I am more interested in him personally than in his newly founded company. ”
Financing, Populus euphratica will not do it, and he does not lack investment channels.
What he wants is the other party's technology, especially Yang Chenglin. Taking a step back, even if Hu Yang was willing to invest money, it was a wholly-owned acquisition of Ruipo rather than a financial investment.
However, are Yang Chenglin and the other three co-founders willing to give up the leading power of the company? Hu Yang was deeply skeptical.
"Well, Mr. Hu, the time over there is about 10 o'clock in the evening, right? You wait for me for an hour, and after an hour, I will call you back. ”
Sun Yunyi's social skills are very strong, and he also has a certain influence among the local Chinese, which stems from his way of being in the world, but also from his exquisite heart.
He knew that the reason why Hu Yang called to ask Yang Chenglin should be in a hurry, so he immediately called Yang Chenglin.
"Yun Yi, I can't tell you about this on the phone, I don't know if the other party can arrange a face-to-face interview with me? To be honest, I don't have much hope for the first round of financing, but my partner is unwilling. Thank you very much for this information and I'll have a drink when I get back. ”
To be honest, Yang Chenglin was tempted. However, considering the company he founded, he still wanted to try to see if he could convince the other party to invest.
"Brother Yang, although I don't know much about the company you founded, you haven't pulled down the first round of investment until now, which is very revealing. Mr. Hu's strength is very strong, I hope you don't miss this opportunity. ”
Sun Yunyi didn't say much, he figured out Yang Chenglin's attitude, and immediately called Hu Yang back.
Of course, this kind of thing can't be done with a phone call. In this case, Mr. Sun, I will consider who to send to talk to Dr. Yang, it is more appropriate, and I will call you later. ”
Hu Yang got the information he wanted, and he directly contacted Ruipo Company or Yang Chenglin, but he was not in a hurry.
Following.
Hu Yang held this regular meeting of the decision-making committee in a small conference room on the 87th floor.
Xu Younian, Xia Bing, Yan Hanzhang, Wan Qingshan and others were all present, Mu Shaoqing was not able to rush back in the emperor, and Wan Qingshan temporarily spoke on his behalf at this regular meeting.
"Mr. Hu, the project risk assessment system and grading system presided over by Vice President Wang Qingquan and Wang have all been completed. I'm going to pick out the key points here and give you some advice. ”
The project grading system is divided according to the level of one to five stars, and the corresponding risk assessment system is from "strict control of investment" to "vigorous investment".
In these two systems, Wang Qingquan and others have established a large number of quantitative indicators, reducing many subjective factors in the past and adding many objective factors in the present.
Xu Younian, who was the first to speak, took out the two systems that had just been completed for discussion.
Everyone's views are almost all positive, and any problems can only be found and improved in the process of actual operation. No matter how much you talk about it now, it's just on paper.
"Assistant Lin, let's record that Mr. Xu's agenda today was unanimously affirmed by the executive committee at the regular meeting, that is, it was approved. Mr. Xu, then these two systems will be piloted in Huijia Holdings first, and then promoted after they are improved. ”
Hu Yang is still more cautious, he asked Xu Younian to conduct a pilot in Huijia Holdings, and after summarizing the positive and negative experiences, it can be used as the corporate standard for Huijia Holdings and Huijia International Investment.
Xu Younian nodded and took Hu Yang's words to heart.
Next, it was Xia Bing's turn to speak, but she said that she still needed to think about it again, so let Yan Hanzhang say it first.
"Mr. Hu, everyone, my topic today is that Charm Manufacturing should learn from Xintong International and decisively make countercyclical investments. I discussed with Mr. Huang and them, with the company's current financial situation, it is completely possible to invest in the construction of two more factories. ”
Charm Manufacturing now has only one factory, and the actual utilization rate of design capacity is just over 65%.
But Yan Hanzhang, Huang Tao, Sa Hongli and others have a longer view. It was decided to invest in the construction of the second and third plants.
"Mr. Yan, you just said that only the first factory of Charm Manufacturing has released a production capacity of sixty or five. So, why doesn't Glamour Manufacturing continue to tap into its potential, but expand blindly?"
Wan Qingshan, on behalf of Mu Shaoqing's status as an executive committee, raised questions.
Although Xia Bing didn't speak, looking at his expression, it was estimated that he was similar to what Wan Qingshan thought in his heart.
"Ahem, I can explain this for Mr. Yan. ”
Hu Yang coughed lightly and got the right to speak. He started from the particularity of the chip manufacturing industry, and emphasized that countercyclical investment is the practice of this industry.
However, he did not express his position, whether the second and third factories that Yan Hanzhang and they asked to build should be built or not?
Yan Hanzhang glanced at Hu Yang, he had planned to tell Hu Yang about this matter yesterday. As a result, Xia Bing's sudden arrival disrupted his plan, and he simply raised this topic at the regular meeting.
Next, Yan Hanzhang began to tell everyone about the urgency of Charm Manufacturing to invest in building a factory.
Relatively speaking, the chip manufacturing plant, from the construction of the plant, the procurement of equipment to the installation and commissioning of equipment, takes a long time, and not every enterprise has a "factory construction master".
Therefore, counter-cyclical investment is the most suitable to build factories, once the industry boom cycle arrives, enterprises can usher in greater development.
"I agree with Mr. Yan's point of view, we always say that everything is foreseen, and counter-cyclical investment and factory construction is the best interpretation. ”
Xu Younian didn't squeak just now, but at this time he suddenly opened his mouth to support Yan Hanzhang.
Xia Bing didn't understand it before, but after listening to Yan Hanzhang's detailed explanation, she felt that it was really like that! She also expressed her support for Yan Hanzhang.
Then, everyone looked at the poplar, and it was time for the boss to make the final decision.
"I agreed to Glamour Manufacturing's request to build two more new factories. However, Mr. Yan, you are not very well informed. Do you know the National Integrated Circuit Development Fund? Xintong International was able to successfully complete the additional issuance this time, thanks to the assistance of others.
Personally, I understand that charisma manufacturing should also be the focus of the development fund. Therefore, Mr. Yan, you have to take the initiative to contact people to see if you can get another financing from the development fund. ”
Populus euphratica means that the second and third factories should be built immediately. However, Charm Manufacturing should also take the initiative to enlist the support of the Integrated Circuit Development Fund.
"Okay, I see. ”
Yan Hanzhang's heart was happy, and he said a thousand things and ten thousand, but the boss still agreed to build the factory. However, he is also very interested in the integrated circuit development fund, and he will send someone to contact the other party when he returns.
At this time, Hu Yang motioned to Wan Qingshan, and hurriedly said something about it.
Wan Qingshan shook his hand with a smile and said, "Mr. Mu said on the phone that he didn't have any agenda for this regular meeting. ”
"Alright then, Mr. Xia, now it's your turn. Tell me about Ruipo and Yang Chenglin. ”
Before the meeting, Hu Yang had already told Xia Bing about the content of his call with Sun Yunyi. The issue of whether to acquire Ruipo will be raised by Xia Bing.
