Chapter 465: I'll make money next year
"Lao Huang, Lao Zhou, Lao Xie, I don't understand technology, you are in charge of technical matters, but I'm like asking, if we want to develop this new chip, how much will it cost?"
Liu Xianming asked.
"Lao Liu, this new chip technology is slightly higher than our current technical level, it doesn't take much change, only need to make minor adjustments, the cost is about 20 million or 30 million!"
Huang Kun made a simple assessment, this number should still be about the same.
"Twenty or thirty million?"
Liu Xianming stared at his eyes and bared his teeth.
Since he arrived at SMIC, Liu Xianming feels that many things are different, and the biggest aspect is that money is not money, and any equipment transformation is worth tens of millions of yuan, and when SMIC was established, the state gave them 50 million yuan, 50 million! This is not a small amount, and the financial revenue of a small prefecture-level city is not so much in a year! However, 50 million yuan was spent within a month, and the state allocated another 50 million, and finally spent 100 million yuan in funds.
100 million yuan, Liu Xianming has a big head when he thinks about it, and he has not used so much paper in his life, no, even ten lifetimes.
Now that Huang Kun proposed to ask for another 20 or 30 million, Liu Xianming felt that the country had already paid too much for them, and it seemed a little too much to ask for money.
"Oh! I said experts, we have just completed the task given to us by the state, and it can be regarded as a meritorious service, and the leaders must be very happy, but if we go to ask for money now, then the leaders will probably be angry again!"
Liu Xianming shook his head and said.
|“ Elder Liu, how about I tell me?"
Before Huang Kun could explain, Liu Lang spoke directly.
"Okay, okay, Liu Lang, you say!"
Liu Xianming hurriedly said.
"Liu Lao, what you said is very right, the country has spent nearly 100 million yuan in order to manufacture chips for so long, which is not a small amount, basically the financial revenue of the Shanghai market for more than half a month, which can feed millions of people, fortunately, we have manufactured the chips, otherwise I am really sorry for the country. ”
"That's right, that's what I meant!"
Liu Xianming nodded.
"But Liu Lao, haven't you ever thought that if we don't do anything now, won't the country lose 100 million in vain?
Liu Lang said with a smile.
"That's right!"
Liu Xianming immediately understood.
"The chip represents high-tech technology, which looks very profound, but in the end, it still has to be market-oriented, and it has to be sold for money, and it is useless to sell it for money, but the chip we just made cannot be sold for money, and it must be improved, and only new chips can be taken out and sold for money!"
"So that's ......... that! Then, Liu Lang, you say, can we make so much money back? What if we don't make it?"
Liu Xianming felt that 100 million was too much, and if he sold cabbage, he might not be able to make so much money for decades.
"Liu Lao, it's already December, and next year is eighty-six years, let me tell you, if we can make new chips in the first half of next year, then we can see the money back, maybe 100 million can't be earned, but the next three years will definitely be able to earn back, three years later, we SMIC will be able to achieve profitability and start earning foreign exchange for the country!"
Liu Lang didn't talk nonsense, the reason why he was in such a hurry to establish SMIC was to make chips before 86 years, because a major event would happen in the computer industry in this year.
First of all, the manufacturing cost of personal computers has dropped significantly, and now the price of a commercial computer in VIE is 3,300 US dollars, such a price is basically about to catch up with a second-hand car, and the shape is huge, it is very inconvenient to use, so it is only used in business, but in recent years, the undercurrent of the computer industry is surging, the most typical is the emergence of Apple's conceptual personal computer, this kind of computer is much smaller, and the appearance is also very beautiful, there is already the style of the future Apple computer, and at the same time, the Apple computer introduced the mouse for the first time, which can simplify the interaction between man and machine to the greatest extent。
However, the price of Apple computers is too high, more than 4,000 US dollars, even the American people feel that it is too expensive, and it is really a "brain-dead" decision to buy a computer with more than two months' salary. 、
But with the drastic reduction in costs, and the emergence of Intel's powerful chips and Microsoft's very user-friendly operating system, the spring of the computer industry has finally arrived.
Intel and Microsoft teamed up to create a golden age of computers, and VIE was eliminated because it couldn't keep up with the trend, and even IBM and Apple were almost defeated by the two of them, but fortunately they transformed in time to escape the catastrophe.
Liu Lang is familiar with these major events, so when he met Wan An last year, he began to persuade him to do personal computer business, but the other party was very stubborn and never listened to Liu Lang.
Since the hardware is not persuaded, then work the software, Wan An listened to Liu Lang's opinion, his second son Wan He is still a computer genius, Wan He spent a year and a half developing a picture editing program, and now it is still upgrading the PS word processing system, once successful, it is equivalent to another Microsoft.
Liu Lang is very sure that as long as the cost of personal computers drops significantly, then the chips manufactured by SMIC will inevitably become the focus of the world's attention, even if VIE does not have a personal computer business, but even if this chip is sold to IBM, it is enough for VIE to earn a lot of wealth, of course, Liu Lang hopes that the hardware is still done by VIE, which is equivalent to the combination of IBM and Microsoft, if VIE really realizes the integration of hardware and software, then the future will be terrible.
Therefore, with the advent of the personal computer era, the latest chip designed by Wanhe will rule the world's software industry like the advent of the king, at least in a short period of time, no company can catch up with him, don't look at Microsoft in the previous life played this position, but Liu Lang believes that even if it is Microsoft's group of geniuses, it is impossible to master the computer language ten years later, without tools, no matter how powerful they are, they can't design better programs, which Liu Lang is very sure.
SMIC, as the designer of the chip, will inevitably play an important role in the major process of computer development, making money is certain, if you grasp this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, it is also very possible to become the world's first chip manufacturer in the future, don't look at it as just a chip manufacturer, but this profit is also very huge, in Liu Lang's previous life, Wanwan's TSMC annual yield for Apple mobile phone foundry chips is as high as more than 30%, that is to say, for every Apple mobile phone sold in the world, they have to share 30%, which brings tens of billions of dollars to TSMC every year, it is terrible to think about。
Through Liu Lang's efforts for nearly half a year, SMIC has gradually taken shape, and the next thing is to make the chip with peace of mind, and then wait for the arrival of the major event that will change the entire course of human history.
Now Liu Lang directly SMIC is waiting for the huge wave to come in order to build a super battleship, this starting point is much higher than others, and then it is not a matter of striving for the top, but to take advantage of this opportunity to "slaughter" all opponents, only in this way can we be worthy of the value of Liu Lang's rebirth.
Of course, Liu Lang can't say these things to others, he just told Liu Xianming and others that they are about to make money, don't panic, so Liu Lang also deliberately found Bai Weiren and explained to Bai Weiren, otherwise the more than 100 million people smashed into it and didn't see any splashes, I'm afraid even the mayor is a little panicked.
Bai Weiren resolutely stood on Liu Lang's side, and also said that if someone wanted to ask about this matter, he would explain it for him, Liu Lang was relieved, if SMIC stopped the research and development of chips at this time, then he would be angry to death.
