As a listed company, Liu Chuanzhi and Yang Yuanqing should pay attention to the company's operation and profitability to satisfy shareholders. Of course, it is not good at balancing long-term and short-term interests, but Lenovo, which is a big business, still has the capital to continue to toss even after seven or eight years, with tens of billions of dollars in revenue and abundant cash flow to do a lot of things.

Since Mr. Zhou admires technological progress so much, it is better to invest in quantum computers, which are the most cutting-edge technology, and Huaxia is not lagging behind the United States in a piece. A Lenovo executive said in a meaningful tone

"Quantum computer, who is studying in Huaxia, and what is the strength?" Zhou Shi suddenly heard that he was interested, and he didn't care what they thought, so he asked directly.

"The main thing is that Huaxia University of Science and Technology is researching, and they have a scientist who has a very high level in this area, is doing quantum communication, and is also preparing to do scientific research in this area of computers, but there is a lack of money to invest. The executive said despite the obstruction

"You tell me his contact information, and I'll go to investigate in a few days. "Zhou Shi

It didn't take long for Zhou Shi to leave Lenovo, some things are not good in the short term, as the big brother of a domestic high-tech enterprise, he was scolded by Zhou Shi several times, saying that they can't do it, and it is impossible to say that they are not angry. However, Zhou Shi is the richest man in China, and he has some face, and no one directly scolds him. Talking about quantum computers is also to slap himself in the face.

From this time period, quantum computers are a more unreliable scientific research project than cloud computing and artificial intelligence, and there are almost no companies in the world doing it. It is mainly universities and scientific research institutions that do some cutting-edge research. However, the well-informed Zhou Shi still knows Pan Jianwei, the father of quantum in China. In the next few years, outstanding talents will continue to emerge in the high-tech field in China, Pan Jianwei is one of the representatives, and there is also a Nobel Prize winner Tu Youyou, and some particularly interesting ones such as Jiaolong for undersea exploration and so on.

Quantum computers are a legend that has not yet been verified, and even seven or eight years later there is no definite evidence that all this research is working. But money always has to be used, and the great thing about companies like Google and IBM is that they dare to invest in unknown and even unreliable scientific research projects. For example, Google has scientific research projects such as human body crossing, that is, teleportation in Chinese fantasy, and it is said that it has invested a lot of money, such a project is impossible in a short period of time, let alone Lenovo in China, even Huawei is impossible to invest.

Zhou Shi did not rush to see Pan Jianwei, and let people contact him first, and then he welcomed another guest in Yanjing: Mr. Zhang Yujing, the former chairman and CEO of SMIC. The contradiction between him and TSMC is difficult to reconcile, and it is powerful to be able to maintain SMIC for more than a year, after SMIC's orders fell rapidly because of the rise of licensed semiconductors, Zhang Yujing naturally lost his job, and the tradition of SMIC's infighting was revived again after TSMC joined. Zhang Yujing rested for nearly half a year, but at that time he didn't have the opportunity to move Xie Songhui, he had long wanted to find an excuse to replace the people of the Singapore family, and replace them with himself and domestic people, otherwise how to become a high-tech enterprise with Chinese ancestry. Now that it's okay, there is a suspected corruption Xie Songhui, and there is no hindrance to his move.

"I need your help very much this time, you can't refuse!" Zhou Shi warmly received Zhang Yujing

"Licensed semiconductors are not doing very well now, and now the industry is saying that it is certain that it surpasses UMC. "Zhang Yujing

"If my goal is only to surpass UMC, then I don't need to look for you, but just like I'm unwilling, are you willing?" Zhou Shi

"Haha~~ I'm not reconciled to ......" Zhang Yujing and Zhang Zhongmou's grievances will not be said

Zhou Shi then talked in detail about the problems that Licensed Semiconductor is facing now, as well as the operations they are doing.

"It's still your foresight, I'm far inferior to this!" Zhang Yujing, through the supply of top-notch equipment to block the possibility of other competitors surpassing, even if he dares to think about it, he doesn't dare to do it, he doesn't have to think about anything if he doesn't have money.

However, TSMC invests in this way, it is said that the annual purchase of top equipment funds reach 10 billion US dollars, in fact, most of the funds do not need to be paid by themselves, and local cooperation to build factories, there must be people willing to invest, most of the funds for the purchase of equipment are purchased by cooperative manufacturers. With the development of modern enterprises, there are many trends in enterprises becoming platforms. Like BOE, he is a listed company that loses money, but the panel factory he cooperated with the local government will not lose money, and it should be said that it has been making money since the day it was put into production. I don't know if this counts as a profit shift, because this operation can maintain the listed company's continuous losses and the production plant's continued profitability. Of course, BOE's losses are caused by investment in research and development......

"By the way, there is also an expert who gave me advice, saying that if the Huaxia chip industry wants to rise, it is best to bet on FD-SOI technology, I feel very reasonable when I listen to it, but I don't know if it's true or not, I'm not an expert in this area after all. "Zhou Shi

"Silicon on insulating substrates (SOI), Professor Hu Zhengming proposed the concept of FinFET in 199, and FD-SOI in 2000. To put it simply, the difference between the two solutions is that the FInFET design is complex, and the cost of FD-SOI wafers is higher, but it has obvious advantages in high frequency, low power consumption, and antistatic. However, TSMC and Intel both respect FInFET, and the alliances that dominate SOI mainly include IBM, AMD, etc., and there is still a gap in the strength of the two sides. "Zhang Yujing

There are many reasons that lead the development of a technology, and the cooperation of the industrial chain is the focus. Besides, Intel and TSMC are both major purchasers of chip manufacturing equipment, and from an investment point of view, it must be demand that determines the market. If you don't have the strength, there is no choice, and licensed semiconductors can do this accumulation, but if an enterprise wants to change the direction of the development of the industry, it is tantamount to talking about it.

"When the FD-SOI process technology reaches the 7nm process node, the SOI will also develop from 2D to 3D, that is, the SOIFinFET process, and they are not completely opposed. Zhang Yujing continued

"You just said that SOI technology has advantages in low power consumption?" Zhou Shi

"That's right, it's because ......" Zhang Yujing said easily

FinFET currently has the upper hand in high-density computing (high energy consumption and relatively hot), but FD-SOI has incomparable advantages in low power consumption, radiation protection, low soft error rate, high temperature resistance and EMC, and in-vehicle reliability. In other words, one of them is the present and the other is the future, at least for licensed semiconductors.
