"How much?" said Minister Hu could hardly believe his ears.

"0.18 to 0.25 microns, strive for the complete localization of core equipment," Hu Yiting said again

Minister Hu seemed to have heard the most ridiculous thing, and let out a "heh" smile, and said: "Hu Yiting, you are still young, and it is a good thing that young people have dreams." ”

Speaking of this, he paused, and turned around: "However, science and technology must not be blind and impulsive, your idea I can understand as the passion of entrepreneurship, but this unrealistic impulse, don't have it again in the future." ”

Hu Yiting's heart sank, knowing that Minister Hu did not believe that he could operate a complex system project, and he was not qualified in terms of technology or funds. It is estimated that the ministry is also unwilling to take risks, guarantee loans to itself or allocate manpower from scientific research institutes to participate in collaborative research and development.

Fortunately, Hu Yiting had already expected that this matter would not go smoothly before he spoke, so he immediately retreated: "Since Minister Hu, you are not optimistic about our Chongguang plan, and I don't force it, at present, we Chongguang plans to build a six-inch solid Yàn line of our own for the research and development of special cutting-edge chip manufacturing processes, Minister Hu, can you give approval for this project?"

Seeing that Hu Yiting's face was obviously gloomy, Minister Hu was suddenly a little unhappy in his heart, thinking to himself what kind of face you put on me as a hairy child, even if you are a genius, I will beat you.

"What do you need the ministry to do?" Minister Hu was displeased, but his tone was very gentle.

"This test line needs to import a number of foreign advanced process equipment, which requires foreign exchange, our company only has a foreign exchange quota of two million US dollars, which is used to purchase equipment, which is definitely not enough. ”

As soon as he heard that he wanted a foreign exchange quota, Minister Hu breathed a sigh of relief, because now all walks of life in China are earning foreign exchange through exports, but the electronics industry is spending the most foreign exchange, and the ministry is indeed not short of foreign exchange quotas, even if it is nervous. It's not a problem to take a few million.

"Why do you make the test line so big? Isn't it the same as two inches, or you can get a four-inch one, and six inches is a bit of a waste. Minister Hu expressed his opinion.

Hu Yiting said patiently: "This is mainly due to the compatibility problem in the future, and the mainstream lithography equipment of some foreign equipment companies at present. Wafers below 100 mm are no longer supported, and if the wafer is too small, it is equivalent to a large horse-drawn cart, and the cost is not cost-effective. ”

Minister Hu nodded as if he didn't understand: "So that's the case, according to what you say." In the future, it will be more cost-effective to make the test line larger?"

"Of course, the trend after the fab is that the most advanced first-generation line is used for production, and the backward second-generation line is used for testing, and the practice of building a special test line is outdated. ”

Minister Hu nodded: "That's okay, you have a very strong ability to earn foreign exchange through exports before Chongguang, and you are very competitive with the ministry, I think I can increase your independent foreign exchange quota, so how about four million US dollars?"

Hu Yiting's face darkened: "Minister Hu, our Chongguang company has earned about 30 million US dollars in foreign exchange in just two months. Do you think the $4 million foreign exchange quota is appropriate?"

Minister Hu had a calm face and said expressionlessly: "Then five million, more than five million need to issue a special plan, submit it to the ****** expert group for discussion, and then submit it to the prime minister for approval, I don't have that much authority." ”

Helpless, Hu Yiting had to carefully thank Minister Hu for his generosity, but it was obvious that his expression was not too happy.

Wang Lili accompanied the smiling face hard, and did everything possible to say good things to Minister Hu, full of thanks to the ministry for their care and attention.

Seeing Hu Yiting's face. Minister Hu was faintly unhappy in his heart, the foreign exchange quota of three million was given, Hu Yiting was not satisfied, he was really greedy.

How can I ask for Chongguang Company in the lower part now? The other party's product orders are needed to fill the excess capacity of Project 908, which is a real demand for money.

Don't look at your overcapacity, in the chip manufacturing industry, even if the Western camp that masters the core technology is dead, it is not willing to give you orders at all, unless you have a clear advantage in cost.

What's more, the chip design industry is generally before the design is completed. The production plant has been determined, and the light yì will not change, generally in which tape-out will be in which place, if there is no accident, it is unlikely to replace the factory, unless the chip profit declines, and it is necessary to save costs through the nearest production, which will consider transferring part of the production capacity to the main consumer market and the surrounding areas of the market.

Satisfied with Hu Yiting's promise to put the Youying Overlord chip into the 908 Huajing project for production, Minister Hu only thought that he had made a deal and did not have much good impression of Hu Yiting.

In Minister Hu's mind, once Youying Overlord and THT1062 are put into production, they can brazenly announce to the outside world, saying that the 908 project has produced the world's advanced products, and one of them is a domestic digital telephone master control chip that breaks the monopoly of imported chips and saves tens of millions of foreign exchange every year!

The other is the world's best-selling mainstream personal computer processor chip! This is a coprocessor! No matter how you say that there are three words processor in the name, this is too uplifting for the Chinese people, especially for China's electronics industry, it is like a drug-like exciting, and the Chinese chip actually appears in the personal computer sold in the world, how glorious it is!

The result of OEM these two chips will inevitably help the 908 project get rid of the predicament of dying in one fell swoop, and completely take off a hat that has almost been deducted to the head of the Ministry of Electronics Industry.

Based on the upcoming glorious achievements, Minister Hu doesn't care much about Hu Yiting's stinky face, he feels that Hu Yiting is nothing more than a child, because the requirements have not been satisfied by adults, and he is making a small temperament and making trouble, and he must not be like him.

Minister Hu thought that although this kid has a low EQ and is stupid, his IQ is definitely the highest in China at present, and maybe in the future, the 909 project will rely on what chips designed by their Chongguang company to feed.

However, what kind of 0.18 to 0.25 micron equipment system engineering he wants to engage in, not to mention that this process is more advanced than the 909 project, which is still in the stage of talking on paper, but to say that his goal is to realize the basic localization of manufacturing equipment, which is simply a fool's dream! At present, the level of domestic chip manufacturing equipment is not clear to others, and he as a minister is still unclear? Almost none of the key equipment can reach the international advanced level, and even if the parameters are reached, the quality cannot be guaranteed.

Minister Hu chatted for a few words, got up and said: "I still have something to do, go first, your program-controlled switch is very good, the ministry will give priority to it, and strongly recommend it." ”

After talking for a long time, Hu Yiting finally heard what he wanted to hear, and hurriedly thanked Minister Hu, and Wang Lili sent Minister Hu and his secretary out of the Telecommunications Research Institute all the way. (To be continued.) )
