"Mr. Li, do you know anything about the semiconductor industry?" asked Zhang Rujin, staring at me.

"Honestly, Dr. Zhang, I'm a layman"

"Mr. Li, semiconductor manufacturing is more difficult than you think, especially if you want to develop the semiconductor industry in the hinterland, it is even more difficult"

"What's so difficult," I asked Zhang Rujin.

I also want to know, it is said that semiconductors are difficult, how difficult it is, and it is better to listen to the real experts in the industry.

"Mr. Li, many people in the mainland think that if the leaders attach importance to it and some people are willing to pay money, they will be able to develop the semiconductor industry like the construction of atomic bombs and artificial satellites, but in fact, it is a foolish dream of the blind people. ”

"What semiconductor manufacturing needs most is cooperation, cooperation all the time, not like building atomic bombs and artificial satellites, once the technical solutions are confirmed, there is not much change. ”

"Semiconductor technology, following Moore's Law, doubles the number of transistors every 18 months. ”

"In addition, the talents cultivated by the inland examination-oriented education system and the so-called outstanding students selected by the Olympiad are difficult to meet the needs of the development of the semiconductor industry. ”

"The scale of integrated circuits has reached the nanometer level, a chip the size of a fingernail has billions of transistors, and the requirements of the ultra-clean workshop are less than 10 or even 1 dust per cubic meter, and the size limit of dust has also been improved because of the upgrading of technology. ”

All this is unimaginable for those who shout slogans all day long. ”

"From design to R&D, from R&D to production, the problems that arise have increased exponentially, and if there is no first-class management, the conclusion is three words: impossible!"

"So, the manufacturing of semiconductors is particularly difficult, and there has to be someone who is willing to burn money for a long time without constantly interfering, and the personal competence of the leader is also very demanding. ”

"Then, at least I'm right to find Dr. Zhang to be the leader," I said after Zhang Rujin finished speaking in one breath.

"I'm not enough, as I just said, talent, capital, including the investment environment, are all indispensable"

"Talents, Dr. Zhang, as a big name in the industry, I believe that there will be followers, and we can also cultivate them ourselves. ”

"The investment environment and the mainland's absolutely supportive attitude towards the semiconductor industry can also be assured by Dr. Zhang. ”

"As for the funds, I believe Dr. Zhang has already understood, and I should be considered to have some strength."

"Mr. Li plans to devote all his life to the semiconductor industry," Zhang Rujin asked me suspiciously.

"If there is a need, yes, and I can continue to transfuse blood in the future, I want to improve, catch up, or even surpass the world's most advanced semiconductor technology"

"Hehe! Mr. Li's courage is commendable, this is also my lifelong wish, but this thing is absolutely difficult."

"I am confident in improving and catching up, as for transcendence, I think it can only be an ideal first, and if we work hard in this direction, the demand for funds will be massive"

"To build a wafer factory, the capital needs need more than one billion US dollars, plus working capital, Mr. Li's net worth can build two or three wafer factories at most, and he is afraid of lack of follow-up strength."

"Uh, Dr. Zhang, as long as you agree to cooperate, I will come out with all my wealth," I said to Zhang Rujin seriously.

"Really"

"Really, Dr. Zhang has come all the way, can I be kidding?"

"Okay, Mr. Li has such a big determination, I will cooperate with Mr. Li" Zhang Rujin stood up movingly and stretched out his right hand.

No one knows how much impact my handshake with Zhang Rujin will have on the semiconductor industry in the future
