Chapter Eighty-Nine

“…… Mr. Hu is really not sorry. Zhu Ziqing said apologetically.

"Mr. Zhu is too polite, I'm too abrupt. I only think about the benefits of this thing, but I don't think about your difficulties. The disappointment in Hu Manying's tone could be heard through the phone, but he still said with a strong smile.

"However, we can help Mr. Hu contact the people of SMIC, I don't know what Mr. Hu wants. After all, Hu Manying dug up the corner, and whether to cooperate with SMIC still needs to obtain his consent.

"SMIC?" Hu Manying was silent, lost in thought. Zhu Ziqing didn't bother, this is not a trivial matter, and it must be cautious.

"I don't dare to make a decision on this matter easily, so let's Mr. Zhu, let me think about it and give you an answer tomorrow?" Hu Manying said, afraid that Zhu Ziqing would be angry and added: "Whether it is successful or not, I have to thank Mr. Zhu for bothering you." ”

"Mr. Hu is too polite, I just use my mouth, it depends on you whether it succeeds or not. ”

Hung up the phone, Zhu Ziqing didn't think much about it, and went to work on his own affairs. But in a room in a five-star hotel in Wuhan, two people high-fived and celebrated.

"Mr. Hu, I, Xu Haibing, will obey you if I don't accept anyone. A middle-aged man said admiringly.

"Lao Xu, we have been friends for many years, and you still slap my ass, it's boring. Hu Manying was modest on her lips, but the smugness on her face couldn't be hidden.

Hu Manying and Xu Haibing met in Weimo and have struggled together for so many years. Well, although Hu Manying has always been the boss and Xu Haibing as an assistant. But the trust between the two is far greater than the average person.

"Mr. Hu, tell me how you know that he will help us build a bridge with SMIC?" Xu Haibing was half curious, half deliberately scratching his itch.

"You're thinking too much of it, that's not what it was supposed to be. Hu Manying laughed and said:

"I only thought of one thing, Skynet Group will inevitably reject the cooperation proposal. Because it does not have a basis for wafer production, it will not rush in.

Even if you are interested, you will not intervene, Skynet is laying out the game industry globally, seizing the international market, and will not distract yourself from engaging in an unrelated industry at this critical time. ”

"In my original plan, Zhu Ziqing rejected the cooperation proposal and was looking for him to build a bridge between us and SMIC. As a human being, he rejected us the first time, and will never refuse the second time. ”

Hu Manying also showed a surprised expression on his face: "It's just that I didn't expect that before I had time to beg him, he took the initiative to make this suggestion." ”

As for why he asked Zhu Ziqing to connect with him, he didn't go directly to SMIC himself, because there is a national will behind SMIC. Cooperation between individuals and nations is always at a disadvantage. What benefits you can get at that time depends on the mood of the people above, and there is no choice.

Find Zhu Ziqing to connect with each other, and the people in charge of specific affairs above will be concerned about this relationship. When the time comes, he will be able to fight for more benefits.

Hu Manying didn't even tell his old partner Xu Haibing about this, only he knew.

"Success favors those who are prepared, which is the harvest that Mr. Hu is well prepared. Xu Haibing exclaimed.

"Luck, luck. Hu Manying was proud but did not forget, and warned: "Only the two of us know about this matter, and no one can tell it." ”

"Don't worry, I know this, and I'll definitely rot this in my stomach. Xu Haibing solemnly assured.

still believes in her old partner Hu Manying: "Once this matter spreads, the consequences are not something the two of us can afford." took advantage of Zhu Ziqing today, and I will find an opportunity to double this favor later. People, you can't do bad things. ”

It's not that you can't do bad things, it's that you can't do bad things in front of people who are stronger than you. Otherwise, you will be restless and restless.

"I see. His reminder calmed Xu Haibing down, and he also understood that if the fox and the tiger were not good, it would become death.

"By the way, Mr. Hu, just now he said to help build bridges, why didn't you just agree to come down, and what did you do until tomorrow?"

"You're just not calm enough, and you've been an acute child all your life. Hu Manying shook his head and said: "Agreeing to such a big thing without even thinking about it, isn't it clear to tell Zhu Ziqing that there are ghosts here." Anyone who can create a great business is not stupid. ”

Hu Manying's little abacus Zhu Ziqing didn't know, but even if he knew that he would still move this line, who made him hate TSMC and Samsung so much. It's just that he will definitely give Hu Manying a good look afterwards.

The next day, he received a call from Hu Manying agreeing to cooperate with SMIC, so he called Lin Boxu according to Lin Baoer's intention and told him about the matter. After that, there was a special person to deal with it, and he didn't bother to ask.

Soon after, SMIC's controlling side reversed its previous approach of compromise and forbearance and forcibly appointed a CEO. This behavior provoked dissatisfaction among the Bay Island team, and friction broke out between the two sides.

The new CEO has taken a hard line and made drastic reforms, especially the clean-up of the Bay Island team. A number of Bay Island executives, including the former CEO, were fired, and a number of technicians from Bay Island were kicked out of the core team.

This behavior has made SMIC people panic, fearing that they will be the next person to be fired. I am also afraid that SMIC, which has finally developed to this day, will fall apart.

The outside world also has different opinions on this, but in general, they are not optimistic about SMIC's so-called reform, thinking that they are digging their own graves. It is likely that this is a sign of SMIC's decline.

Behind the silence, the controlling party seems to have just reacted. He was suspended from all positions on the grounds that he was not fit to be in charge of SMIC, and a CEO was appointed on an interim basis.

After the CEO took office, he set things right, and quickly calmed down the situation and stabilized people's hearts. For the expelled Bay Island team, he also sent a message of kindness. He said that the departure of these people was a loss for SMIC, and that they would be recalled at the right time.

Most of the people in the Bay Island team, including the former CEO, said they would consider it if SMIC invited them.

But soon after, everyone found out that the new CEO seemed to be just talking about recalling the Bay Island team, but in fact he was recruiting troops in China to expand the size of the team.

One of the larger moves includes the wholly-owned acquisition of the chip production company under Hu Manying's name and the integration of its R&D team.

At this point, even the most stupid people realized that something was wrong, but they couldn't know the real situation just by guessing. Even if some people speculate on conclusions that are closer to the truth, they cannot be trusted because there is no evidence.

In this way, after a series of changes, the Bay Island team completely withdrew from the stage of SMIC. Domestic capital is in complete control of the enterprise.

Although the people who eat melons do not know what is going on inside, they are not optimistic about this result. It is generally believed that losing half of the startup team is not a good thing for SMIC.

SMIC has recruited a lot of new people, but it takes time to cultivate new people and integrate into the team. It will take at least half a year to a year to go back and forth.

At the rate of a new generation of wafer production in a year, a year's delay is fatal. It will not only widen the gap with the most cutting-edge production technology, but also reduce the competitiveness in the low-end market due to the interruption of research and development.

In short, I am not optimistic about the future of SMIC.

But not everyone is not optimistic, and many people have the opposite opinion. When SMIC first developed, it hired a lot of people from Bay Island and Bangzi Country to participate in R&D management.

Later, domestic talents poured in, and their capabilities in R&D and management surpassed these foreign second-rate people (let's just say that). However, people came early and climbed to a high position with the credit of entrepreneurship, which suppressed the upward space of domestic talents. As a result, relevant talents in China are now reluctant to work at SMIC.

Coupled with some intrigue at the leadership level, SMIC's management is quite chaotic and unreasonable. The consequences of this unreasonableness are becoming more and more serious, and it has seriously hindered the development of SMIC.

Now these people are cleaned up, although it has had an impact on R&D and management, but it has also squeezed out pus and blood. As long as it gets through this difficulty, SMIC will catch up with TSMC and other companies with a healthier attitude.

The two sides are fighting a lively fight, but the person who really knows the truth of the matter is hiding behind him and making a fortune.

Half a year later, SMIC announced that it had made a major breakthrough in technology and mastered the 20nm wafer production process. And it is a mature technology that can be mass-produced.

As soon as this news was confirmed, those who sang the song were speechless, and those who supported it were ecstatic.

Of course, this is all later, and the eyes are pulling back to the present. After communicating with Lin Boxu, Zhu Ziqing left this matter behind.

I first went to the MSI community to take a look at my house, and after confirming that there was no problem, I asked Ma Cong to quickly arrange someone to come over to finish off the odor. Then it flew to the capital.
