Chapter 13 The Problem of the 3.5 Generation Line
Lee Zaichan will not go to the shipbuilding group to recruit workers, he just wants to leave the Hong Kong hotel quickly, but being under the same roof with the man makes him a little depressed and breathless, this feeling he has never felt before, he is very uncomfortable, and he feels more relaxed when he gets in the car.
"The headquarters is still working on F1ash memory-type mp3, and now I decided to take a look at the sales of 'lightning' mp3, I think I'm afraid that the price of micro-hard disk mp3 will be greatly reduced." Li Zaixan said and looked out the window, the drizzling Lingang looked like a fishing village, small and chic.
"Is the president still hesitating?" Cui Zhihao smiled bitterly, "I'm afraid that if it goes on like this, Yundian will take the lead." ”
"It's a small MP3 that doesn't work in a day," Lee said, "With Samsung's accumulation, it will take some time to make an MP3 with the same level of technology as the 'Lightning' MP3, and it will take some time to prevent that guy from charging high royalties, and now we just need to get the shipyard done." ”
Distracting too much energy in these aspects, I am afraid that Lee Kun-hee will be dissatisfied, although he deliberately cultivates Lee Jae-chan, Lee Kun-hee still will not let him meddle in the business direction of the headquarters.
"Since the Lingxi Provincial Government has approved the shipyard, can the next thing be handed over to the people below?" Cui Zhihao has a bad feeling about Lingang, it is like the remote fishing village where he was born, and after coming out of there, he didn't want to live in this kind of place.
"Partly, I'd like to see how much that guy can get in this tender." Lee Jae-chan sneered and motioned for the driver to drive the car directly to the dock, where there were engineers from Samsung Heavy Industries who were doing shipyard planning in Lingang, and they should also meet with them.
In addition to the shipyard of Samsung Heavy Industries, the matter of POSCO and steel cooperating to establish a 5oo0,000-ton steelmaking base is also on the desk of the Ministry of Commerce, and it is still unknown when it will be approved.
Just like Nippon Steel and Baosteel's 5oo0,000-ton steelmaking projects, they also need to be certified.
"Wuhan Iron and Steel, Iron and Steel and Baosteel have all landed in the city of Lingang, which has a great effect on the economic development of Lingang," Yu Jun told Wang Bing, "If you count Sinopec's oil refining project, Lingang's GDP can reach more than 3ooo billion, and Yunguang has to speed up the pace to catch up." ”
"If Premier Jiang hadn't spoken, Shanghai and Guangzhou wouldn't have let Lingxi do this lightly, right?" Wang Bing chuckled, "It would be funny if Yunguang's GDP crossed Shanghai within five years." ”
"It's not impossible, now the statistics of the household registration department, the number of foreign workers living in Yunguang has exceeded 2oo people, counting the population of the entire city of Yunguang, it is not impossible to exceed 10 million in two or three years," Yu Jun said with a smile: "My cousin always calls me poor, in fact, although Yunguang's finance has exceeded 2oo00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 To solve part of the Yunguang infrastructure, the total amount is too large, and there is not much money left in the city's finances in the next year. ”
Wang Bing smiled: "Don't you say that with the increase in the price of real estate, you can earn tens of billions of yuan by selling land in Yunguang in two years." ”
"This is natural, the country has made the real estate industry a pillar industry to exhibit," Yu Jun muttered, "This kind of exhibition has pros and cons, okay, don't talk about him, I heard that there are some problems with the wafer factory in Singapore?" ”
"Well, that factory was on the verge of breaking, Mingyao and Junhao had a good conversation when they went, and at a price of 1o billion, they pulled all 4 production lines back to Yunguang, but the acquisition was temporarily suspended by the Singapore commerce department under the pretext of losing some technology." Wang Bing said helplessly, "What is the loss of technology in the 3.5 generation production line, I am afraid that the domestic production capacity will increase quickly." ”
"There is not even a wafer production line in China, and the international community has been taking the form of government control and patent clamping in semiconductors, and Singapore is no exception," Yu Jun said. The United States has recently intended to sell submarines to Singapore, and it naturally wants to sell them well to the United States. Don't look at the acquisition of Shengdi and Trek2ooo, they didn't do much of a thing, at most it was senator-level criticism, but when it comes to semiconductors and other matters, Singapore and the United States are very guarded. At present, the wafer factory is basically controlled by South Korea, Japan, Taiwan, the United States, and Europe. South Korea don't say much, Hyundai, Samsung are large LCD producers, the best TSMC, AUO Optoelectronics OEM most of the LCD panels in the United States and Europe, Singapore is a semi-foundry and semi-self-use form, Japan to Sony, Sharp and other manufacturers master the production technology and manufacturing process of LCD area, the United States is naturally mainly in the hands of Inte1, AMD and other giants, Europe is Philips and other subs. Wafer fabs can not only produce LCD panels, but also produce CPUs after technological improvements, and of course, the materials produced are also different. Compared with 8-inch wafer fabs, 12-inch wafer fabs can save 4o% energy and water per chip on average, and can reduce the production cost of a single chip. The LCD screen manufacturer cuts the glass substrate, the higher the cutting process level, the larger the single screen that can be cut, the greater the algebra. ”
"The 1st generation line and the 4th generation line can only cut out the 9-inch LCD screen, but it is different in resolution, the 4.5th generation line can cut out the LCD screen below 15 inches, and the 5th generation line that Samsung wants to launch can cut the 832-inch LCD screen, here we have been one step slower."
"Patents?" Wang Bing asked.
"The relevant accumulation has been done, whether it is the production process or the manufacturing process, especially the process of basic materials, the rare earth research center in Liushui and the research center of Yundian have been tried, and what is needed now is the production line." Yu Jun leaned on the sand, took the juice handed by Wu Yu, and smiled at her.
"But the manufacturers of the wafer factories you mentioned are all multinational giants, and it seems that we have few advantages?" Wang Bing frowned and said, "And the investment in the LCD screen production line is huge, are you sure you can do it well?" ”
"The investment is one thing, there will be no problem with the flow of funds, it is easy to get a loan, get the production line, at least the supply of MP3 LCD screen can rely on ourselves, and I also want to make LCD monitors, so that the brand computers launched by Yundian, the LCD panels used are from our own production line, and there is no big problem in sales." Yu Jun pursed his lips and smiled, saying: "It's a pity that the 3.5 generation line in Singapore can only produce less than 9 inches, if it can be acquired, it can only be used as mp3, or the LCD screen of mobile phones, and it is necessary to launch the 5th generation line in the second half of the year, and the investment is also more than 1oo00 million, in order to take the lead in the field of liquid crystal displays, at least to be the first PC manufacturer to launch LCD computers on a large scale." And you say that there are few advantages, in fact, we have one of the biggest advantages. ”
"Oh?" Wang Bing said in surprise.
He really can't think of any advantages that Xiling Holdings can take under the encirclement of the world's giants.
"8o% of the world's heavy rare earth mineral resources are in China, and 9o% of China's heavy rare earths are controlled in Liushui rare earth, converted to 72% of the heavy rare earth mineral resources are in the hands of Xiling, the most needed process of the LCD screen is liquid crystal polishing powder, using cerium oxide and other materials, cerium is a light rare earth good, but only one of the materials of polishing powder, several types of heavy rare earth ores, can be used as polishing powder materials. The light rare earth minerals Liushui rare earth is also in the integration, and the negotiations with Baotou are about to come to an end, then 72% of the heavy rare earth minerals, 35% of the light rare earth minerals, only need a slight reduction in supply to make those manufacturers who produce LCD screens a headache, huge losses can be seen. ”
72% of the world's heavy rare earth mineral resources are in the hands of Yunling, perhaps Samsung Heavy Industries has long had a bad feeling, but it can't stop Liushui Rare Earth's crazy acquisition of rare earth minerals in China.
God knows what will happen in two years after the integration of Liushui rare earths is completed.
"Is it time to raise the price of supply? It was a good show. Wang Bing said with a smile.
"Now it is also slowly raising prices, and the market's reaction has appeared, but if you want to raise prices on a large scale, you must at least wait until the LCD screen production line can meet the needs of the domestic market," Yu Jun took a sip of juice and said, "South Korean sticks and Japanese devils are not fools, if the price is raised, it will definitely cause market shocks, and maybe they will suspend the supply of LCD screens to blackmail the government to compromise, this kind of thing, they can't do it." ”
Wang Bing nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Your layout is always like a drizzle into the night, moisturizing things silently, and you have unconsciously walked all the chess pieces to the established location." ”
"Doesn't that sound like you're saying? Accompanied Kexin to review again? Yu Jun laughed.
"Hey, I'm also in night school," Wang Bing leaned against the sand and yawned, "I think I'll go to Singapore tomorrow, you can't get out of it at this time, and you have to deal with the provincial and municipal officials." ”
"You go and have a look first, if it doesn't work, I'll go over." Yu Jun put the goblet aside, got up and said, "It's not too early, Wang Mingsheng and Dai Junru want to treat them at night, can you go together?" ”
"Alas, the most annoying entertainment, especially in officialdom, a group of big men, sitting and chatting, don't even arrange entertainment after eating." Wang Bing sighed.
"Old Tang said that he would open a restaurant and bar in Lingang, and then you would have a place to stay, and the points for this month had already been decided," Yu Jun said with a smile, "When the time comes, you must dare to go there to hook up with women." ”
In fact, Tang Mingyi wouldn't necessarily tell Tang Kexin even if he saw it, but Wang Bing didn't have the guts.
As he spoke, the rain outside became heavier, and there was always an indescribable feeling in Lingang in the smoke and rain.
