Next door to the real yàn room of the Telecommunications Research Institute of the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications, Hu Yiting was talking with a leader, accompanied by Wang Lili, the company's president.

"Hu Yiting, the situation is like this now, the 908 project is based on the Huajing project, including a series of auxiliary supporting projects of a complex system engineering, according to the original design goal, a monthly output of 12,000 pieces of 6-inch wafers. However, at present, the main project Huajing project has not been launched for a long time, and the rest of the auxiliary projects have begun to operate normally. ”

Hu Yiting understood what was going on, but he just didn't speak, wanting to hear what the top leader of the Ministry of Electronics Industry in front of him had to say.

For Minister Hu Qili of the Ministry of Electronics Industry, Hu Yiting only knew that he had a great background in the past, but later committed a taboo, so he was assigned to the Ministry of Electronics Industry as the owner of the village.

Minister Hu talked elegantly and said in a graceful manner: "The outside world is now talking about it, saying that the Ministry of Electronics Industry is bragging, and the 908 project was started in 90, and the production line has not been built in 95.

He also said that the satellites placed by the Institute of Microelectronics did not overcome the 0.8-micron integrated circuit manufacturing technology at all, but with the achievement of "0.8-micron CMOS integrated circuit chip manufacturing technology", it won the first prize of scientific and technological progress of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the National Eighth Five-Year Science and Technology Research Award, the second prize of scientific and technological progress of the State Science and Technology Commission, and the top ten scientific and technological achievements of the Ministry of Electronics Industry.

Their basis is, since all the scientific and technological achievements have been made, why can't the factory be opened? Isn't it a joke?"

Saying that, Minister Hu looked at Hu Yiting, Hu Yiting was silent, and listened to Minister Hu continue with a smile.

Minister Hu thought that Hu Yiting was not a young man who could speak, but he felt that Hu Yiting was young and calm, at least he didn't talk nonsense and grab words.

Minister Hu said: "In fact, the actual situation of Huajing is that the production line is almost ready to run, but there are still some small problems that affect the yield rate, but over time, this can be solved." ”

Hu Yiting still didn't speak. He remembered that in his previous life, he had heard his predecessors say that the water of the 908 project was very deep. The Ministry of Electronics Industry is trying to make the 908 project brilliant, and in order to regain its political achievements, the leadership attaches great importance to the project. All matters of the project are required to be submitted to the Ministry of Electronics Industry for approval, and the purchase of a lithography machine at that time, whether it is to buy a Japanese or Dutch one, must all be reported to the ministry for approval, but the people in charge of the ministry are not front-line engineers. Who would dare to take this responsibility? As a result, all kinds of delays and prevarications continued, and such things as this kind of blind delay in work dragged the entire project into pieces and pieces, and the construction period was long. So much so that the work that could be completed in 12 to 18 months abroad took 7 years to finally put into production at the beginning of 97.

Minister Hu coughed dryly and said: "For the 908 project, the state has invested 2 billion yuan, but now if you want to start construction, you can't have a suitable project, if you start construction rashly." If it can't meet a quarter of the design capacity, then even the basic operation and maintenance costs can't be recovered, and it will be a loss!"

Minister Hu sighed: "I inquired, at present, the domestic IC enterprises, you Chongguang company is the strongest, and the profitability is also the first in China! As far as I know, there are only two or three design institutes in China that can design mature 0.8 micron chips, and you are one of them." But when it comes to profits, you make more money than the other two. ”

Hu Yiting was praised by Minister Hu and couldn't help but say, "Yes." As for the profit, it is because other design units are designing for the country, and their profits cannot be estimated simply by market income. ”

Minister Hu's eyes lit up. Hu Yiting's words are full of rationality, which makes him feel that he is teachable.

"When I said this, you probably know the reason why I came to you, the Huajing project needs orders, at least 3,000 pieces per month, and 200 chips per sheet. The yield rate is at least 70%, and at least 600,000 qualified chips can be produced per month. ”

Hu Yiting said casually: "Not necessarily, some chips have a very small area, with an effective area of only thirty or forty square millimeters, and it is normal to cut four or five hundred pieces on the 150 mm diameter area of a six-inch wafer." ”

Minister Hu nodded and smiled: "I see." Then he said bluntly: "Hu Yiting, let me tell you this, after careful calculation, the ministry believes that the chip currently designed by your Chongguang Company can fully meet the minimum number of operating orders for the Huajing project of the 908 project." ”

Hu Yiting frowned, and listened to Minister Hu continue: "According to the calculations of the ministry, the national phone sales last year were more than 6 million units, and this year it is expected to reach more than 10 million units. It is estimated that with the growth of the market, it will continue to maintain the scale of 10 million units next year.

Moreover, with THT1062 such a cheap and high-quality digital phone master control single chip, China's manufactured phones have achieved remarkable export results in the international market. As far as I know, the phone division of Huachuang Group has won more than 2 million orders for various styles of export phones with the THT1062 chips you designed in more than a month. ”

Hu Yiting nodded: "I have previously granted the THT1062 patent use right to Huachuang, and entrusted them with full authority to operate the product, and Chongguang Company will withdraw 1 yuan from each chip as a patent fee." ”

Minister Hu said: "I hope that you and Huachuang can coordinate and transfer the production of THT1062 to Huajing factory, so that Huajing can only rely on you to re-polish this THT1062, and there will be about 5,000 guaranteed orders every month." ”

Hu Yiting blinked: "What about the 58 Institute?"

Minister Hu said: "The 58 Institute is not worried about eating and drinking, and the list of THT1062 is moved to Huajing, and they can continue to live on TV chips." In short, as long as you cooperate with Huachuang, you don't have to worry about this matter, and the ministry is responsible for the operation. ”

"Just THT1062 produce 10 million pieces a year, Minister Hu, aren't you worried about sales?" Wang Lili couldn't help but ask at this time.

Minister Hu was confident and only said one sentence: "Next week, the ministry plans to announce a new standard for national digital telephones." ”

Wang Lili was dumbfounded, and said in her heart that the new standard is only qualified THT1062 qualified? In fact, she guessed correctly, Minister Hu just made this idea, and although the phones that do not meet the standards can still be produced and sold at that time, as long as they want to do it, they will be normal law enforcement.

Hu Yiting understood and knew that the ministry planned to use THT1062 to be a wet nurse for the 908 project.

He didn't expect that his rebirth not only led to the birth of THT1062, but also provided China with tens of millions of chip orders every year out of thin air, and as a result, he actually made the 908 project, which is immortal in history, full.

In this way, the tragedy of the 908 project being put into operation in history and losing 240 million yuan a year and having to close its doors will not happen again.

"I have no opinion, anyway, we Huachuang only get a commission of one dollar for each chip, and it is the same for us wherever the chip is cast. Hu Yiting said frankly.

Minister Hu lowered his head and pushed his eyes: "Then what if you ask you to bring the Youying Overlord chip to Huajing?"

Hu Yiting said with a smile: "Do you still need to ask, as long as Huajing's yield rate is not too low, the cost will definitely be much cheaper than in Taiwan." As long as Huajing can make it, we will give the contract to Huajing. ”

Minister Hu was puzzled: "I talked to Wu Dengchao, director of the Institute of Microelectronics, and he said that it is good for you to play with chips, but there is a floating point register integrated in it, and according to the current domestic manufacturing level, the yield rate is not high." ”

Hu Yiting said with a smile: "Anyway, if we don't want to pay for it, Huajing can grope and slowly improve the process." ”

Minister Hu said: "According to Wu's estimates, if your Youying Overlord chip is debugged and projected at the same time, the yield rate in the early months is about 15% to 25%. The cost is estimated to be 70 to 80 per piece. ”

Hu Yiting hurriedly said: "This is not good, is this price intended to be a joke? Our film price in Taiwan is only 6.5 US dollars!"

Minister Hu said with a smile: "I won't embarrass you, I mean, how much money you will give to Huajing for how much you invest in Taiwan, of course, I can guarantee that once the technical problem is solved and the cost is reduced, it will definitely be cheaper for you." ”

Hu Yiting was a little puzzled: "Minister Hu, if you do this, it is equivalent to subsidizing money to Chongguang, but I can't miss your good, after all, for our company, the cost has not dropped a penny." ”

Minister Hu said: "Although Huajing will lose money at this price, Huajing's supporting projects are still profitable, such as silicon refineries, packaging plants, reagent factories, etc., which offset each other, which is equivalent to not making money." ”

Hu Yiting smiled: "I understand, should I practice it?"

Minister Hu said: "You can't say that, if you practice, you can wait for the yield rate to improve before taking orders, mainly because Taiwan has been making too much trouble recently." ”

Hu Yiting suddenly came to his senses, remembering that two days ago he read a newspaper that was criticizing Li Dengshen's visit to the United States and his meeting with Clinton, and that the United States openly allowed Li Dengshen to visit the United States, thus breaking the "ban" on "visiting the United States" for Taiwan's top leaders for 17 years, and also officially opening the timetable for Li Dengshen's and ilk's separatist plan.

Minister Hu further explained: "It is also for this reason that a missile launch exercise was held in July, and in short, the central authorities have decided to exert some pressure on the Taiwan side and cannot condone them to continue to make trouble. (To be continued.) )
