Chapter 714: The Beginning of the Breakthrough

Chapter 714 Breaking the Game Begins

Gao Mingkang nodded and said:

"Mr. Meng, on behalf of Mingkang Communication, I would like to thank you for your support. Damn, those guys in North America are trying to completely jam us and leave us with no core.

The initiation of the establishment of Xintong International (Southwest Manufacturing) Company is a stroke of genius, let their blockade become a joke. ”

Xia Bing smiled and took over the conversation: "At present, China's market share in the world's semiconductors is getting bigger and bigger, and we are already the number one market well-deserved. The market should be our most advantageous weapon, and their plot will not succeed. ”

Her views are in line with Populus euphratica, which has always believed that the market is the determining factor.

But there is one thing, the market for technology can not be exchanged, just look at the development of the domestic automobile industry in recent years.

With a broad market, mature enterprises should give opportunities to emerging enterprises in China. Maybe their products are not satisfactory at the beginning, but as long as the other party can achieve a positive circulation of funds and continuously increase the intensity of independent research and development, they will naturally catch up in terms of quality.

Technology is not so advanced. As long as you are willing to work hard, there will always be a breakthrough day.

Didn't ASML ever say that even if you were given a full set of lithography machine drawings, you wouldn't be able to build it.

Hu Yang dismisses this sentence, what kind of sophisticated technology do you have? After all, you are just a system integrator.

ASML's lithography machines are assembled with components purchased from the world's most advanced companies in various industries.

Not to mention anything else, if you dare to bring the drawings, Bolong Optics (micro-electrical equipment) can digest and absorb them in minutes.

At the very critical node of 28nm, the lithography machine of Bolong Optics has been put to great use, and the rest is only a matter of excellence.

From the 28nm node to the limit of the ArF light source of 7nm, there is no major technical obstacle. As long as Bolong Optics continues to develop step by step, there will be no major problems.

The gap lies in the next generation of lithography machines, which are EUV (extreme violet lithography machines).

ASML has already obtained a large amount of US dollars from giants such as S-Star, Taipower, and Intel, and has started the research and development of EUV first. Bolong Optics has just begun to pre-research this project, especially the key extreme violet light source has not yet been solved.

But this problem is really not unsolvable, several major domestic optical and mechanical institutes are supporting Bolong Optics (laser technology) company to tackle key problems in this area, and it is a matter of time before a breakthrough is made.

After everyone finished speaking, Hu Yang smiled:

"After listening to everyone's speeches, I think we are still very hopeful. If we follow this path, it will be difficult for North America to defeat us, albeit difficult.

Finally, I want to tell you something else, Mr. Xia, let's talk about our idea of the smart headquarters area. ”

Everything that needs to be said has been said, and the rest of the things need everyone to work hard.

Populus Hu changed the topic and talked about the land allocated to the Huijia Department in the city.

So Xia Bing carefully explained the cause and effect of this matter, and then said: "Mr. Hu has decided to buy this piece of land and build the smart headquarters area of our Huijia Department. Looking back, who wants to move their headquarters here?"

Yan Hanzhang immediately responded: "What else is there to say, of course you have to move over." In the future, the smart headquarters area will definitely be a model of high intelligence and informatization, and the work efficiency can be improved by more than double. ”

Gao Mingkang and the others had no objections, but Mu Shaoqing was more entangled.

The headquarters of Huijia Holdings has been in Yangcheng, if it is relocated to the deep sea, first, it is not very convenient in business, and secondly, it is afraid of excessive competition with Huijia International Investment.

"Mr. Mu, although Huijia Holdings is close, it can be regarded as being in the field. Now we're only going to talk about companies in the deep sea, and you're going to put them on your side first. ”

Hu Yang didn't plan to let Huijia Holdings move its headquarters to Shenhai, and as soon as he said this, he completely dispelled the idea in Mu Shaoqing's heart.

At the end of the meeting, everyone had dinner in the restaurant upstairs, and then went their separate ways.

Every minute and every second is precious to everyone, and the crackdown in North America has made everyone dare not relax at all.

"Boss, the city has informed me that I can go through the formalities in a few days. I paid the land payment first, and when the planning and design came out, I will discuss with Mr. Gao. ”

Mr. Xia and Hu Yang walked at the end, and before getting on the elevator, Xia Bing reported to Hu Yang the results of her work in the past few days.

"Well, you should go through the formalities as soon as possible. As for the design bidding, let Assistant Wu help you. I'm going to check the design plan myself, understand?"

Hu Yang smiled, looked at Xia Bing and said very seriously.

"I understand, the smart headquarters area will be the nest of our Huijia department in the future, of course, the boss must be able to see it well. ”

The two got on the elevator together, and Xia Bing expressed his understanding that Hu Yang cared so much about the design plan.

Three days later, Xia Bing signed an agreement with the city on behalf of Hu Yang. The city sold this 1.5 square kilometers of land to Huijia International Investment for a total price of 5.4 billion yuan.

Xia Bing happily paid all the price, and then let his subordinates go through various procedures.

Huijia International Investment had 168.962 billion yuan of funds on its account. In order to raise the stock price of Mingkang Communication, 50 billion yuan was sent to Xiangjiang, but then it didn't use so much, and it was all turned back.

At present, the cash on the account of Huijia International Investment is still 168.962 billion yuan.

After paying 5.4 billion yuan for the land to the city, Huijia International Investment still has 163,562 million yuan in cash on its books (RMB account).

After all the formalities were completed, Xia Bing came to find Hu Yang again.

"Mr. Xia, Assistant Wu has been in contact with various design companies recently, and I have a general understanding of the basic situation. In this way, you have people start preparing the bids, and in three months we will officially start the bidding process. ”

Now that the land is available and Populus euphratica is not short of funds, there is no need to delay the construction of the smart headquarters area.

This kind of thing, Xia Bing turned around and handed it over to the project department to prepare, and after the bidding began, it was not too late for her and Wu Xinhui to check again.

Xia Bing was a little hesitant, but still gritted his teeth and said, "Boss, I'm afraid three months is not enough." Forget it, I'll talk to them personally, even if it's overtime, you have to make the plan as soon as possible, or you will cancel their bidding qualifications. ”

Hu Yang shook his head and said, "There is no need to rush this matter, the design plan must strive to be perfect." If three months is not enough, we can relax it to half a year or even a year, what do you say?"

"That's for the best...... I thought you were in a hurry. Mr. Hu, as the saying goes, slow work makes meticulous work, and the design plan really can't be too tight. ”

Xia Bing plans to give each design company half a year to carefully polish their plans. "Okay, you can do it. However, the excellent design solutions selected must be seen by me, and if I don't like them, I will be kicked out directly. ”

Hu Yang doesn't care whether the other party is a world-renowned architect or a world-famous design company.

Xia Bing remembered the boss's explanation, and then together with Wu Xinhui, he notified the major design companies that were interested in coming to bid to prepare their own design plans.

After Hu Yang arranged this matter, he no longer paid attention to the rest of the details, and he still focused his work on Mingkang Communication.

That afternoon, Hu Yang and Gao Mingkang made an appointment to go to the club to play golf.

Truth be told, the two have now adapted to the sport. One of the benefits of playing golf is that it is not only relaxing, but also a more relaxed way to talk about things.

Hu Yang and Gao Mingkang come almost once a week, and the process of playing ball is also the process of communication between the two.

"Mr. Hu, Mr. Liu came to the news from Europe that three small European countries have decided to buy our 4G communication equipment. ”

4G technology, to put it bluntly, is equivalent to the integration of 3G and WLAN, and has great advantages in transmission rate, signal coverage, and intelligence level.

At present, there are several 4G standards in the world, but the technical standards of Mingkang Communication are the first to come out, and they are also the first to enter practical applications.

It can be said that Mingkang Communication's 4G technology has certain advantages, and the equipment and construction costs also have a relative price advantage, aside from other factors, in fact, the market demand is not small.

Therefore, when Gao Mingkang said this, he was in a very good mood.

"Congratulations, congratulations. There is a way that everything is difficult at the beginning, and now that the situation has been opened, the future will definitely get better and better. ”

European countries are famous for their pickiness about products, and Hu Yang feels that as long as Mingkang Communication can have this start, the future effect will definitely not be bad.

"Let's hope...... Mr. Lu said that North America is actually not idle, they are always stirring up in it in various ways, just to stir up our business. ”

Gao Mingkang pouted, the company is now feeling the pressure from North America in the direction of Europe, and their hands are really long enough.

"It's up to the people to do things, and we still have to try our best to fight for it. If some countries are pressured to cooperate with us, it is up to them. Didn't you say it before? Survival is victory, and Mingkang Communications must not be defeated by North America. ”

Hu Yang's heart is very indifferent, and now it seems that Mingkang Communication is not daring to say whether it is alive or not, but the probability of survival is infinite.

Mr. Hu, in addition to base stations, the company's sales of smartphones in the European market are also on the rise. ”

Gao Mingkang then brought the second good news to Hu Yang, Mingkang Communication's smart phones are tepid in the domestic market, but they are outstanding in the European market.

Perhaps this is what people often say, flowers bloom in the wall, and fragrance outside the wall.

However, Mingkang Communication's mobile phone uses its own operating system, and the construction of the ecology is a short board, which needs to be further strengthened.

"Mr. Gao, in terms of hardware, we are not afraid of anyone. However, considering the differences in language and culture, ecological construction is a bit of a lag.

I have an immature idea, do we need to spin off the software business? The advantage of this is that it will help us find a way to acquire a few related companies in Europe. ”

Smartphones need to run a variety of software, and they don't just need to be able to talk.

Therefore, the construction of the ecosystem is particularly important, and the acquisition of related enterprises in Europe is also a shortcut.

Hu Yang had considered this issue before, and today he simply explained it to Gao Mingkang and Pan.

Gao Mingkang thought for a while and felt that Populus Hu's proposal was good.

However, such a big matter still needs a process of argumentation, and it cannot be solved in one sentence.

"Mr. Hu, I'll ask someone to do a feasibility study when I go back. If it's not a big deal, I think it's okay to give it a try. ”

Gao Mingkang supports the spin-off of the software piece, just as Mingkang Communications previously spun off the chip design business.

"Well, when you have a decision, let's hold a board meeting and settle the matter. ”

The two chatted while playing, and soon it was time to get off work. Hu Yang and Gao Mingkang changed their clothes, came to the parking lot and got into their respective cars, and left one after another.

Hu Yang is not in a hurry to go home, and there is no one at home now.

Tian Sichun took Xiao Yifei and followed Li Guixiang, Hu Zhiguang and Hu Yue to Yangcheng. According to Li Guixiang's words, let's make time for the busy man and wait for him to be busy for this period.

In fact, Populus euphratica is really not as busy as Gao Mingkang. No, just after playing, he didn't even have time to go out for a meal, so Gao Mingkang rushed back to the company to work overtime.

Mingkang Communication's supply chain is only basically stable now, and there is still a certain distance from safety and reliability.

Therefore, there are many technologies, and Mingkang Communications needs to continue to increase its research and development efforts. There are some manufacturers that can do domestic substitution, and they also need Mingkang Communications to send people to do technical guidance, and almost everyone in the company has not taken a vacation.

It is under the pressure of this high-intensity work that the localization rate of Mingkang Communication is increasing little by little, which means that the ability to resist pressure is gradually becoming stronger.

In April, spring blossoms.

Hu Yang took Wu Xinhui, Mi Qi, Wang Cheng and Lu Dacheng to the magic capital again.

The main purpose of his visit this time is to participate in the off-line ceremony of Elbesemitte's new generation of plasma etching machine.

"Mr. Hu, the product we are rolling off the assembly line now can be regarded as the 1.5 generation. ”

After the off-line ceremony, Yi Jun accompanied Populus Hu to visit the prototype up close, which began to enter mass production, which was improved on the basis of the first generation of etching equipment.

At present, the case of Applied Materials v. Elbe Semiconductor has entered the second-instance procedure. Just in case, Yi Jun made a bold innovation in technology.

It can be said that now Elbesemi's technical path has gone to another path. Even if Applied Materials says anything, it has nothing to do with their technical path.

When the process technology enters the key node of 28nm, the role of etching equipment in the chip manufacturing production line is becoming more and more important.

For example, the proportion of etching equipment in the overall production line is steadily increasing. Compared with the previous generation of process technology, the proportion of capital for etching equipment has increased by 7%.
