Near the Kwun Tong Wharf, Zhang Heng got out of the car and looked at the incomparably open factory area in front of him, and his mood was suddenly relaxed.

Thirty years later, there will be only a handful of factories in Kwun Tong that are not very polluting, such as garment processing and creative workshops, and most of them will either be closed down long ago, and the rest will be driven by the government to remote Tuen Mun Yuen Long.

If his memory is correct, the place was transformed into a very upscale waterfront residential area long before his return.

Although he is happy to get this 13,000 square meters of land, Zhang Heng is still concerned about the past ten years, and the wafer factory of Daheng Group is at least not worried about the lack of plant area.

He also wanted to move all his industries to the future Yuen Long Industrial Zone as early as possible, and it would be best to be close to the future Shenzhen Bay Bridge, but at this time, it would take more than two hours to drive there from Kowloon or Kwun Tong, and the public transportation was only privately run minibuses, and even taxis were reluctant to go.

Under such traffic conditions, if Daheng moved to Yuen Long, it would be necessary for most of the workers to run away.

"Maybe we can use the real estate bundling model to develop the Yuen Long factory, but it's still too early to do this, let's wait two years. He stepped into the factory.

Herney took a group of senior managers to wait for him at the gate of the factory, instead of welcoming him to the gate outside like most Chinese, which made Zhang Heng secretly satisfied, he glanced at these people, the three old beauties dug from Silicon Valley were there, and the rest were the Chinese executives of the previous Fairchild Xiangjiang factory, the number was not much, only two.

"Mr. Lu couldn't accompany me today, I guess he must know the two of you, can you introduce yourself?" After shaking hands with the four old beauties, Zhang Heng asked the two Chinese cordially before shaking hands, and then glanced at Herney casually.

He was blaming the director of the fab, why he had not reported the above list of fab directors to the group after two months in office, at least he had not seen it on his desk.

Herney must have understood what he meant, and shrugged apologetically.

"Boss, my name is Zhao Xin, and I am currently serving as the deputy chief engineer of the front process, specifically responsible for the lithography mask part. A middle-aged man respectfully shook his hand and said.

"Boss, my name is Zhou Ruxin, and I am currently serving as the deputy chief engineer of the front process, specifically responsible for the chemical corrosion part. The other one was a little younger and equally respectful.

Seeing the age of the two, Zhang Heng asked curiously: "Can the two of you talk about your resume?"

Zhao Xin, who is nearly 40 years old, graduated from the Xiangjiang Kowloon Optical Technical School, and then worked in a local camera factory until six years ago, when the factory was acquired by Ricoh of Japan.

Twenty-seven or eight-year-old Zhou Ruxin graduated from North Point Chemical Technical School, and then has been engaged in PCB chemical corrosion process research and development in Huiji Electronics.

"You are welcome to join Daheng, but Boss Hui is okay, right?" Zhang Heng had hinted to He Jie a long time ago, and if he was not in urgent need of high-end talents, he should not poach people from his partners.

"Director He personally visited Boss Hui, this is the time to dig me up, thank you bosses for their love, I will do my best for the company!"

Zhou Ruxin's performance made Zhang Heng secretly taken aback, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "The company will not treat every employee who pays for the company, promotion and salary increase are just common, and the reward option is also very likely in the future, I will watch your future performance." ”

Everyone entered the factory along the corridor together, Zhang Heng deliberately fell last, and Herney really came up and whispered: "Boss, I'm sorry, I've been busy adjusting the process, and I haven't done enough in personnel management." ”

"I will remind Director He to assign you a full-time administrative secretary as soon as possible, and let this person be responsible for your communication with the fab administration department and headquarters in the future. ”

In fact, this pot can't be carried by Herni alone, the group was founded, and the various departments were formed for less than two months, Zhang Heng understands the complexity and is willing to wait for another stage to see, if this summer passes, the administrative affairs of the entire group are still so clueless and inefficient, then he has to take He Jie under the knife.

They did not enter the office area, but directly changed into a full set of dust-free clothes in the clean room at the outermost gate of the production workshop, walked through three cleaning and dust removal doors, and entered the production workshop.

The workshop is divided into several parts according to the process flow, from the lithography mask at the front end, to the tape-out, testing and packaging at the end of the line, all kinds of large precision machinery are arranged in an orderly manner, during which there are workers or technicians wearing white dust-free clothes walking back and forth, busy paying attention to the situation on each assembly line.

But no one spoke, and the entire nearly 8,000-square-meter factory area was only the light fixtures on the ceiling and the hum of the machines running.

First inspect the lithography mask part, Zhao Xin introduced: "Boss, yesterday we received the complete set of DHJ-73 layout sent by the manager of Fajin, and we are currently doing data format conversion, and we can import the lithography machine almost tomorrow and carry out the first test exposure." ”

"There is no problem with the conversion, right?" involves a new CMOS process, this step is the most important, and Zhang Heng is very concerned.

"We used bipolar and NMOS processes before, and we haven't done CMOS processes yet, and now we are gradually building our own CMOS process matching system through the relevant materials we got from Intel, and I am not confident that we will be completely successful the first time, and there may be a stage to adjust. ”

"I understand this, so I'm not going to force you to take as much time as you want to finish. Zhang Hengwen smiled, and then became serious again, "However, every time you fail, I hope you will record the reason and avoid this mistake next time." ”

"Understood, we will do it!" Zhao Xin straightened up and said loudly.

"Deputy Commander-in-Chief Zhao, your attitude is very good, a bit of a soldier's appearance, Daheng Group must learn the spirit of military discipline and hard work, only in this way can we catch up with European and American first-mover enterprises in a short period of time. ”

Zhang Heng encouraged more than a dozen engineers on this line to pat the GCA fixed lithography machine that had just been shipped from the United States and move to the next process point.

"Boss, GCA is still ten points cheaper. Herney whispered.

"That's not what I'm trying to do. Zhang Heng shook his head, thinking of the company's resolute rejection of Daheng's intention to buy shares, he was slightly unhappy.

However, in addition to the completion of the merger and acquisition of Mi Luohua and Fairchild Xiangjiang factory, Lin Liang's team is not without gains in Silicon Valley, at least the progress of the LP company is satisfactory, the other party will separate a new company dedicated to integrated circuit lithography machine light source, and then accept Daheng's wholly-owned merger.

The light source is there, the next is the optical lens, then the high-precision synchronous motor, and finally the lithography machine, I hope GCA can agree in time, otherwise I have to make a new lithography machine company, and release the step-by-step lithography machine that you will have to launch in six years in advance, and then you will beg me to buy it!

Zhang Heng silently calculated in his heart and entered the chemical corrosion workshop separated by fully transparent plexiglass.

It took two hours, inspected more than a dozen process lines, met with every engineer, and got to know all the technical supervisors above the middle level, Zhang Heng left the production workshop with satisfaction.

"Herni, you and them have helped Zhao Xin with this line in the past few days, and overcome the first process as soon as possible. Back in Herni's office, Zhang Heng instructed, "In addition, count all the detailed data of all the machinery and equipment in the production workshop, and hand it over to the group's administrative department tomorrow for them to pass on to me." ”

"Boss, do you still want to?" When he was in Silicon Valley, Herney was surprised to know that his boss wanted to buy a lithography machine factory and now he had to count all the equipment.

"Don't worry, I just want to sort it out and see what equipment is important and valuable in addition to lithography machines. Zhang Heng smiled, "I don't have the strength to go from upstream to downstream, and I won't do that." ”

"That's good, in your words, you have to have professional people to do professional things, and don't just enter unfamiliar industries. Herney breathed a sigh of relief, "But there doesn't seem to be much progress on the lithography machine, right?" The engineers from the GCA told me that their boss had no intention of selling any shares at all. ”

"Who said there was no progress. Zhang Heng smiled mysteriously, "Herni, just wait, by the end of the year at the latest, I will definitely surprise you!"
