In addition to Kaiyang Semiconductor, Yaoguang Electronics, Yuheng Software, and Shuhang Optics, these companies are engaged in the production of terminal products, and they will not have much to do with this technology embargo, at most, there may be some friction in import and export trade in the future, but these problems are commonplace, no matter which country they will encounter.

United Power Energy Company did not attend the meeting, and the issues related to the electronics industry have little to do with them, not to mention that the Southwest Motor Company of United Power has almost ended its cooperation with Rolls-Royce in the military, and the Qingcheng engine has been completely domestic, so they have very little pressure.

It wasn't until after the meeting that Liang Mengsong and Yu Youcheng called Chief Engineer Ni Guangnan together and came to Wang Zhengguo's office again.

was about to drink saliva to moisten his throat, and when he saw the three main pillars of the company come to find him together, he subconsciously felt that there might be something that was not good to say before, so he came down and found it alone, is it .....

"All three of us, what problems do we need to solve?"

....

Liang Mengsong looked at Yu Youcheng, he was not very easy to speak, after all, this time the problem was not his contact with the Japanese side, and the specific situation was best described only by the parties concerned.

"Okay, then let me talk about this, about the technology exchange proposed to us by Canon, they are willing to use 0.7 micron lithography machine technology to exchange CMOS optical sensor related patent authorization with us, I think this is a solution to the current problem of backward domestic semiconductor processing equipment technology. ”

It's really amazing, I was moved to be able to propose a technology exchange at this time, this girl still has a lot of ideas, not to mention whether the deal is cost-effective or not, Wang Zhengguo first has to give a big affirmation, and it really scratches the itch of Kaiyang.

Lithography machine began to be specialized in the eighties, at this time there were many optical giants in the world that could be produced, Japan's Nikon, Canon is one of the leaders, and it was after 2000 that Canon gradually declined, but before that, it has always been the top three in the industry.

It can be seen that Canon's lithography machine is actually quite good, at least at present, it can fully meet the requirements of industrial use, and also has good market competitiveness.

"When you purchased a 0.7 micron lithography machine before, you were in contact with Canon, when did they report this condition, and are you sure that it can still be counted until now?"

The same quid pro quo, if it was made before this recent event, then it is clear that there is a high probability that it will change after the current event, after all, everyone knows that now that the republic is about to be embargoed, the price of some technologies will naturally rise.

"I have communicated with that side, they can ignore the current international embargo, if we want, the two sides can also have a final window of time for technology exchange, after all, the technology embargo also needs a certain amount of time to be fully implemented, this is their last excuse. ”

really responded to that sentence, as long as both sides are willing, the so-called embargo can indeed find a way to circumvent it.

"Then what do you feel is the situation, change it or not, listen to your opinions first. ”

To tell the truth, Wang Zhengguo has actually been moved, although this CMOS optical sensor has been applied for many patents, but it is not too difficult to say that the production technology is actually not too difficult, after all, Kaiyang's products have been officially sold to the outside world, I am afraid that there are already various imitations in the laboratories of major optical giants.

Patents sometimes don't really work, and the republic itself doesn't recognize such a thing as international patents, so if those foreign giants are really forced to rush and jump over the wall directly, anyway, even if it's infringement, it's a big deal to go to court, drag it out!

Relatively speaking, although the lithography machine does not involve many patent issues, the technical level required for production is extremely high, and at present, the domestic production of 0.7 micron width lithography machine products, for Kaiyang who is more important, it is clear at a glance.

Yu Youcheng did not continue, but Chief Engineer Ni Guangnan stood up with a clear attitude and a loud voice!

At present, the entire Kaiyang system needs a 0.7 micron lithography machine, otherwise we will not be able to complete the process technology upgrade, and the CMOS optical sensor patent will be licensed, but it is just to allow Canon to be able to fight Suo Dafa's CCD sensor in the Japanese market, and it can really threaten us, in fact, it is far from it. ”

Very well, since the chief engineer agrees with this plan, it seems that this time it can only be so.

"Then the two of you have the same opinion as Chief Engineer Ni, and think that we should agree to this technology exchange, so as to achieve a cross-generational upgrade in lithography machine technology?"

Since this time the three of them came together, it must be necessary to fight for the opinions of these two people, even though the opinions of the three people are likely to have been summed up before, but the routines and postures that should be done must be done enough, which cannot be less.

"That's right, we all think that it should be replaced, this is the technology we need most at present, and only in this way can we make up for the shortcomings of the domestic lithography machine industry, as for other semiconductor processing equipment, I have recently done a thorough investigation, and it should be possible to ensure the 0.7 micron process next year. ”

Liang Mengsong was responsible for process development, and immediately began to conduct a systematic investigation of the domestic semiconductor industry after arriving in Kaiyang.

The upstream raw material production, the accuracy of the processing equipment, and the downstream market demand, he has all run the research, and now if he says so, it is not much worse, after all, the foundation has continuously thrown a lot of money into these relevant units, and there is still some results.

The backbone of the company thinks that it should be replaced, and Wang Zhengguo himself thinks it is feasible, so naturally there is no possibility of opposition.

Immediately clapped the decision: "Change, this matter must be done as soon as possible, contact Liu Sanshi's lithography equipment company, this technology exchange is participated in by them, we must digest the relevant technology as soon as possible, and it is also to prevent the Japanese from adulterating the data, otherwise we will not even have a place to cry at that time." ”

"Chairman, now I have a suggestion, this time we Kaiyang own blood to introduce 0.7 micron lithography machine technology, before the company and Shudu Institute of Optics and Mechanics to develop lithography machine, this time the technology to them is reasonable, but now facing the embargo, do things can no longer completely put eggs in one basket, so I suggest that this time the 0.7 micron lithography machine technology to the CLP 45 Institute of a copy. ”

Yu Youcheng's worries are not unreasonable, now it is true that all eggs can no longer be put in one basket, it is time to support another competitor, after all, there is competition to have motivation, so as to achieve common progress.

On the upper plane, Intel found that after 2010, only Nikon and ASML were left in the lithography machine industry with development capabilities, and in order to ensure that there was a certain competition in the lithography machine industry, it has always purchased the products of these two companies at the same time to ensure that both companies can survive.

Now Kaiyang is also facing the same situation, and it is not surprising to make the same choice, because this is indeed the most rational choice.

"You said that this should also be, then this time I will give the technology to 45 to get a copy, and at the same time to the two units to place an intention order, in the future, the company will purchase lithography machines to take care of both companies, can not win all, that can only cause the final monopoly ending, we have no benefit. ”
