Chapter 572: The Rising SMIC
In Professor Xiong's eyes, these young people who are only in their twenties and thirties have become the second generation of industrial talents in the country, which is really helpless.
For these people, Huaxia University must be the focus of training, after Huaxia University completed the task of imitation of German machine tools, the state immediately took out 20 million yuan of funds to Huaxia Industrial Science and Technology, which can be used to buy more equipment.
However, Liu Lang's plan is to let potential people study abroad and let them receive advanced education abroad.
Although Liu Lang is abroad, he still has a lot of control over Huaxia Industrial Technology, after all, the company's largest source of funds is the Transformers toy model, which Huaxia University knows very well, Liu Lang doesn't care about other things, he only cares about the study abroad of students, Wan'an gives Huaxia University one million dollars every year to provide 20 students with the cost of studying abroad, that is, this year, these 20 students officially went abroad as a public study abroad, including Liu Lang's personal recommendation of the hometown Wang Haijun, he was sent to the island country of Kyoto University to study in semiconductors, and there are two undergraduate students of Huaxia Industry, sent to the island nation and Germany, respectively, majoring in mechanical engineering.
Three people are obviously not enough, but after all, the twenty places are limited, and it is impossible to give you all the places in the School of Mechanical Engineering, right? For example, there are two places for English majors, and there is also one place for physics majors.
Of course, Liu Lang knows that there are cats in this, and the government is sent to study abroad, some people go to learn skills, and some people regard this as a very important capital ......!
Therefore, since Liu Lang made a lot of money in the US stock market crash, he decided to pay for the training of talents for Huaxia Industrial Science and Technology, and he contributed 500,000 US dollars a year to provide two years of study expenses for ten students.
The money was handed over to Xiong Huaizhi, and he was responsible for all the right to use it.
500,000 US dollars have all been in place this year, and the personnel list has also come out, all of whom are the backbone of Huaxia Industrial Science and Technology, and next year, Liu Lang's three roommates at Huaxia University, Juniper, Lin Hai and He Tao, will graduate, and the three of them must study abroad, not only the three of them, but also a few of them are Liu Lang's "hardcore", and these people will also become his descendants in the future.
Huaxia Industrial Science and Technology is the birthplace of Liu Lang, and it will become the root of national industrial science and technology in the future, through two years of development has achieved initial results, and the country has also listed it as a key enterprise, and SMIC also plays a huge role in the national chip industry.
In the past six months, the world's computer industry has been surging, and in just three months, the price of personal computers has dropped to $2,300 per computer, especially IBM, whose personal computer business accounts for 5 percent now from 1 percent three months ago.
Wan'an was slower in the personal computer business, but at the beginning Wan'an listened to Liu Lang's advice and put some of his energy on the personal computer business, he was still a little hesitant at first, but soon he realized how correct Liu Lang's prediction was.
As soon as personal computers appeared, they caused a sales boom, and the total sales volume in the United States reached more than 10,000 units within three months, and more than 10,000 units may not seem like much, but this number is almost the same as that of commercial computers, and you must know that the sales volume of commercial computers in VIE last year was only 20,000.
As for the reason, it is very simple, the base is too large, even if the United States has hundreds of thousands of enterprises and hundreds of millions of ordinary people, it is incomparable, among these hundreds of thousands of enterprises, one percent of the enterprises need to buy computers, that is just a few thousand, even if each company buys a dozen, but the demand for tens of thousands of units, and hundreds of millions of people, even if one in 10,000 buy a computer, that is also calculated in 10,000, now the price of each personal computer is 22,300 US dollars, this price is equivalent to a middle-class income for a month, completely affordable。
VIE is lagging behind IBM in the personal computer business, and even more behind Apple, but they have software that neither company has, VIE personal computer with photoshop1, which makes VIE personal computer business prospects very good, just because the latest chip production capacity is seriously insufficient, shipments have never been up, VIE has been to China three times in the past few months, each time to SMIC to supervise the war, let them increase production capacity, the faster the better, the more the better.
Just over four months ago, the SMIC group was still worried about when they would be able to earn back after spending so much money? Not to mention them, the country's top leaders are also staring at it every day, they want to know whether Liu Lang's judgment on chips is correct, you must know that last year Liu Lang vowed that '86 would become a watershed in the chip industry, after which the whole world will officially enter the computer age.
This kind of words seemed to be a bit fantastical at the time, in China, not to mention the computer age, even if there are few people who have heard this word, even those high-level people who control the country, this word is also very unfamiliar, if there is no Liu Lang proposed to form their own chip industry, I am afraid they don't know that there is such a thing as a computer in this world, the country invested hundreds of millions of yuan to establish SMIC, which is completely the result of Liu Lang's "jumping up and down", but even so, many people still do not believe in the so-called computer age.
A year later, SMIC began to show its value, and the net profit of a chip reached $300, and if it produced 10,000 pieces a year, it would be $3 million! Enterprises that can earn $3 million in foreign exchange a year are now rare in China.
The country's biggest export commodities are oil and coal, which can obtain five or six billion US dollars in foreign exchange every year, in addition to timber, tens of thousands of square kilometers of forest farms in the northeast have a large number of trees, which have grown for hundreds of years, or even nearly a thousand years, and the big trees have been cut down and then sold to island countries in exchange for foreign exchange, as well as various mineral deposits, such as rare earth mines, which can also earn a lot of dollars every year.
Nowadays, the country's largest export is these mineral deposits, which can have more than 3 billion US dollars a year, but these are all strategic materials, and they will be less if they are sold to others, but they will not sell them, because there are no other commodities that can be exported.
The chip is different, the raw material is silicon, silicon is widely distributed in nature, the earth's crust contains about 28 percent, and the large stones that can be seen everywhere contain rich silicon, of course, the silicon raw materials used in the chip are purified, and the purity exceeds 99 percent.
Purifying silicon into chips, earning $3 million a year for 10,000 yuan, how appropriate this account is, makes the country's high-level feel a little unrealistic.
Of course, in order to achieve a production capacity of 10,000 pieces, SMIC still needs to continuously invest in equipment transformation, and VIE told everyone that 10,000 pieces is still far from enough, and it is best to have 20,000 pieces a year, or even 30,000 pieces.
Enterprises are like this, the production of products in short supply will immediately increase production, especially for such a high-profit commodity, as a large central enterprise, the country immediately started, to give money to people to give people, there is only one purpose, that is, to achieve the task of producing more than 10,000 this year, and the production capacity will reach 20,000 yuan next year.
The first task is very easy to achieve, because the original production capacity of that wafer production line is 9,000 pieces, as long as it is increased to the original level, it is almost the same, but the second task is very difficult, which requires the manufacture of a second wafer production line.
