It is indeed beneficial for the branch to be set up in Nanbang, but the problem is that it is necessary to find out the reason why Kaiyang set up a branch now, in order to overcome the current difficulties, not to bury nails, let alone pave the way for the future.

The location of this branch must ensure that Kaiyang can quickly circumvent the embargo, and the local area must also have a certain scale of semiconductor integrated circuit industry base, and Nanbang is now only in its infancy, and the so-called foundation is really nothing to say.

On the other hand, the first person to read the information was Chief Engineer Ni Guangnan, who didn't have much thought about South Korea, anyway, he simply felt that it was a little inappropriate, and it was not pleasing to the eye!

The situation is originally so simple, as the chief engineer of Kaiyang Semiconductor, he can "do whatever he wants" when he ensures that there are enough choices.

"Director Yu's suggestion is very good, I also found out after reading the information just now, it is true that only South Korea and Singapore are more suitable now, but I personally prefer the Singapore side, I think Director Yu can also guess the reason. ”

Everyone understands people, since the company's chief engineer is more optimistic about Li Jiapo, it is naturally because he sees the unique advantages.

Stop the introduction to the current situation of the industry in South Korea, in fact, Singapore is also Yu Youcheng is more optimistic, and even surpasses South Korea in many places, as the former head of Intel's CPU business, he has sent someone to do an investigation before, and he knows this very well.

"In 1980, Hewlett-Packard was the first company to bring a chip design center to Singapore, which was their first chip design center in Asia. In 1985, SGS became the first semiconductor company to set up a front-end chip production base in Singapore, and in 1987, Pratt & Whitney set up the first overseas chip manufacturing plant in Singapore......"

Since the early 80s, there have been semiconductor industry giants settled in Singapore, and the middle has continued to develop for so many years, various industrial policies and foundations have reached a relatively mature period, if Kaiyang opens a new company here, the local industrial cluster effect will be more obvious.

As for the Singapore government's policy investment in semiconductor integrated circuits, this is not to mention.

The first is Singapore's state-owned investment company: Temasek, this guy directly set up a chartered semiconductor company, and later became the world's third largest semiconductor foundry after Taipower and UMC, at least before 2000, it was completely possible to fly in seconds.

In the statistics of the global semiconductor industry conducted in 2000, Singapore ranked sixth in the global semiconductor industry if it was counted as a country, but if it was calculated in terms of cities, Singapore's semiconductor industry ranked second in the world.

Of course, now in the late 80s, although the semiconductor industry in Singapore has initially had a scale, but it is not much competitive, Kaiyang Semiconductor's branch is also a very powerful existence, and it is actually a good way to put some products that are not good to produce in the mainland at that time.

The reason why Singapore's semiconductor industry gradually disappeared after 2010 is mainly because of the impact of the Asian financial crisis in the nineties and the global economic crisis in 08, and the mainland also began to exert force in the semiconductor field at that time.

"I was approached by Singapore before, and I was still from Intel at that time, because I was Chinese, so they contacted me and wanted me to join the CEO of a chartered semiconductor company that was established the year before last, but the company's main business was semiconductor foundry, and I didn't think there was any future, so I didn't go. ”

Sure enough, it is worthy of the top Chinese management of Intel Corporation, and it has a huge impact on the semiconductor industry in the world, but whenever the Chinese forces want to develop the semiconductor industry, they almost always find him first, but fortunately, Kaiyang Semiconductor is currently in the lead.

Yu Youcheng's qualifications are there, and it is enough for him to be proud.

However, here, in the face of a group of big people who almost control the future development prospects and direction of the republic's semiconductor electronics industry, he has no arrogance in scientific research, and some are just impulsive, and the goal is to be on an equal footing with Intel in the future.

Now the situation faced by Kaiyang Semiconductor is more difficult and tricky, but as long as he can solve the problem, the more he can show his strength, and he will be able to take charge of this super crocodile that has initially possessed the temperament of a semiconductor giant earlier.

"Temasek's positioning for licensed semiconductors is semiconductor foundry, and we want to carry the banner of Singapore's local semiconductor industry, so I think we don't have to set up a branch in Singapore, it is better to directly invest in licensed semiconductors, and the products that are not easy to produce with domestic technology for the time being can be directly handed over to them to OEM. ”

With such a strange brain circuit, the whole conference room fell into silence, and this plan seems to be really feasible.

Wang Zhengguo was very satisfied with this idea, and asked: "It makes sense, then how much do you think we spend and how much we want to hold shares is more appropriate, after all, this plan can only be regarded as an expedient measure, and the process production technology of Kaiyang Semiconductor in the future will eventually catch up, and most of our products will be produced by the company itself." ”

"30% is the upper limit, any more is completely unnecessary, we just have a stake in this company to ensure that we have some influence, and Temasek itself can't give us too much, in fact, we need between 20% and 30% of the equity.

Very good level of advice, this person is really talented, good.

Now to invest in the licensed semiconductor, and support its development and growth, the future is at most with Taidian, UMC to fight all kinds of battles, anyway, it is impossible to affect Kaiyang's semiconductor production business, and considering that the future of licensed semiconductors can develop into the world's third largest semiconductor foundry level, now an investment is definitely a good deal.

"Well said, I agree with Director Yu's suggestion that Kaiyang's branch plan can be put down temporarily, and we are ready to invest in Singapore Licensed Semiconductors, and in the future, we will hand over the inconvenient domestic production business to the foundry there, which is the best way to solve the current dilemma. ”

"I agree!" Chief Engineer Ni Guangnan agreed.

..

"I agree. ”

Liang Mengsong also qualified to participate in the conference, for him, now that the mainland is blocked by technology, the entire semiconductor industry can only rely on itself, which is even more of a challenge.

Recently, he has also read a lot of materials, about the inspirational stories of the older generation of scientists in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China who broke through technology in the strict lockdown of foreign countries, and he felt like drinking chicken soup, and he felt that he was full of strength.
