Chapter 788: Pinching Your Nose

Really?!

Hehe!

Wendink wanted to slap himself twice at that time, what are you talking about?

Isn't Mr. Lu An a particularly atmospheric, excellent, and handsome person?

I saw the abundance of handsomeness, how is it so atmospheric, excellent?

Why are you still beating snakes and sticks like this!

You're welcome at all!

Yes?

This is far from the rumors!

Vendink was also very aggrieved, but he definitely couldn't cry, what could he do, he had to be strong.

smiled and made a gesture, "Mr. Lu An, please say, if you can help, we ASML will definitely help." ”

Lu An said with a smile.

"If you can, ASML will definitely be able to help!"

Mr. Lu's business touting skills are relatively blunt and not in place, unlike Rebus, which is silent and does not leave traces.

"That's the case, I discussed with Mr. Ren, Mr. Lei, and Mr. Tang, and I plan to invest in the construction of a very good wafer factory in the industry.

12 inches upwards compatible with 18 inches. ”

When he said this, Lu An paused.

Then he continued.

"THE PLANNED CHIP PROCESS LEVEL IS 10NM~3NM, WITH A MINIMUM OF NO LESS THAN FIVE PRODUCTION LINES, WHICH REQUIRES ASML TO GIVE CERTAIN SUPPORT IN KEY COMPONENTS;

Please be assured that Mr. Vendink is here with absolute sincerity. ”

In fact, Lu An had a brief conversation with Rebus, Mr. Ren and Tang Dengjie on the way to Feldhofen last night.

TALKING ABOUT 3 PRODUCTION LINES, BUT ABOUT THE CHIP PROCESS, THE UNIFICATION IS 10~3, NOT TALKING ABOUT THE EXAGGERATED 1NM.

Mr. Ren is still very supportive, Tang Dengjie is playing soy sauce, and Rebus is eager to support with both hands and feet.

At the end, he said one more thing, "Mr. Lu has finally started to engage in chip manufacturing!"

In fact, there is a widely circulated embargo and embargo list in the purchase of equipment.

Especially in China, it is very widespread.

But in fact, this so-called embargo and embargo list is not an official regulation, after all, many things are not weapons and equipment.

Make a few handfuls of embargoes and embargoes.

If you buy it back, you can't imitate it, and if you imitate it, you can't use it, the protection of intellectual property rights is not a joke, just a patent lawsuit can make some billion-dollar companies bankrupt!

Therefore, these so-called embargo and embargo lists are widely circulated in China, and there may be some cats in them.

However, although there is no ban, it is very troublesome to sell the most cutting-edge series.

There is at least one essential element of this world that is profitable.

So, a lot of things are not so simple, and it's normal not to sell core products for the sake of their own interests.

As the world's best lithography machine manufacturer, ASML has a lot of shareholders in the open and secret, and it can be directly known that Intel, TSMC, Samsung, etc. are all shareholders, and the shareholding ratio is not low.

It's normal not to sell to Huaxia.

After all, many countries have all kinds of measures to curb the development of China.

Even Huawei, which has emphasized many times on many occasions before, that Huawei's HiSilicon Kirin chips will only be used internally for the time being, and will not be sold to the outside world.

Therefore, when Lu An proposed that factories that have not even gone through the registration process need at least five wafer production lines, he hoped that ASML would help in key areas.

Vendink almost peed.

This is special, it's really not polite at all, and I have a big appetite.

Wendink pondered for a long time before he hesitated.

"I don't know what kind of product line Mr. Lu hopes to buy?"

Mr. Lu An has become Mr. Lu, from a business point of view, this is the beginning of the public service!

For ASML, selling lithography machines is almost the only business.

It stands to reason that it is very difficult for a company with a single product like this to survive, and ASML has indeed been on the verge of bankruptcy several times in history.

Every time, there will be a capital injection from the big guys.

Very simply, the process of developing lithography machines is slow, the operation is complicated, and it is not easy to keep up with the accumulation of ASML's knowledge, so the bigwigs simply continue to support ASML.

After the advent of EUV (extreme ultraviolet light), ASML basically had no competitors, and its only opponent was itself.

With a share of more than 90% in the high-end market, Nikon and Canon basically drink some unprofitable soup and water, and they can't even pull up the user base even in a patent lawsuit.

Lu An replied easily.

"NXE 3400B or successor. ”

THE NXE 3400B IS OFFICIALLY ADVERTISED BY ASML TO SUPPORT UPWARD-COMPATIBLE 5NM LITHOGRAPHY PROCESSES.

HOWEVER, IN FACT, THE LEAPFROG PROGRESS OF THE NANO LITHOGRAPHY PROCESS IS DUE TO THE PROBLEM OF SAMSUNG'S PROPAGANDA CALIBER, BASICALLY SAMSUNG'S 10NM IS THE NORMAL 12~13NM LEVEL.

THEREFORE, THE SO-CALLED 7NM IS ALSO THE LEVEL OF ABOUT 9NM.

It's not that the process of the lithography machine can't be reached, but Samsung's technology can't be reached.

HOWEVER, LU AN KNOWS THAT THE 7NM PRODUCTION LINE HAS BEEN ON THE SAME FOR MORE THAN HALF A YEAR, AND IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO SAY THAT ASML WILL STOP THE RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT PROGRESS, AFTER ALL, EUV CAN SUPPORT UP TO 5NM OR EVEN THE UNIVERSALLY RECOGNIZED THEORETICAL LIMIT OF 3NM, SO THERE SHOULD BE A SUCCESSOR.

AS FOR THE UPWARD COMPATIBILITY OF 1NM GIVEN BY THE SYSTEM WALL, IT CANNOT BE THEORETICALLY NORMALIZED.

Wendinke's heart became even more bitter, and he knew that Lu An's mind was not so simple, how could he buy that outdated product.

AN0's name, he Vendink has heard of it.

Especially after the 3GPP meeting, there has been a resurgence of research on AN0 around the world.

It is generally believed that the AN0 chip does not show all the performance and capabilities on the Xiaomi Y.

THERE ARE CHIPS IN TWO STANDARD 10NM AND 7NM PROCESSES, AND THE WAFER PRODUCTION LINE HAS TO START TO DEVELOP TO 5NM......

Wendink groaned for a longer time, and finally he confessed to Lu An.

"FRANKLY SPEAKING, MR. LU, ASML ALREADY HAS A FINISHED NXE 3450B IN HIS LABORATORY, WHICH ALMOST PERFECTLY SUPPORTS 5NM, BUT THE DURABILITY AND WEAR HAVE NOT BEEN COMPLETELY TESTED. ”

The meaning of this sentence is that the number of wafers that can be exposed per day is not completely stable.

It is estimated that it is more than 500 pieces, but it does not reach a more desirable height.

"In the case of five NXE 3400Bs, we at ASML have to convene a board meeting, and I can't give you a direct answer, please understand. ”

Wendink actually wanted to be cool.

After a slow production of the NXE 3400B model priced at more than 100 million euros in the first quarter, ASML received 21 orders in a short period of time, and there is no doubt that it will be in stock when production capacity catches up.

Lu An made a gesture and said with a smile. "It's okay, we can wait. ”

In my heart, I don't believe that the whole world is open, and Intel, Samsung, and TSMC will still be so unsophisticated!

This kind of thing, Lu An is strong and doesn't make sense at all.

Lao Tzu is rich, Lao Tzu has cards, Lao Tzu is unreasonable, what's wrong?

Vendink didn't make Lu An really wait too long.

Even if it is Intel + Samsung + TSMC plus some overt and covert shareholders behind it, after Lu An's two global public appearances, they all have deeper guesses about the depth of knowledge of this young man, and the information is neatly placed on the desk.

I don't dare to let this Mr. Lu An mess around, in case there is a new standard, hehe, I can't cry.

iPhone X to find out?

It's so cold!

In the end, Wendink was completely pinching his nose and communicating with Lu An about the purchase.

"Mr. Lu, our ASML inventory is seriously insufficient, and the orders are scheduled for the second half of next year, and the board of directors agreed to sell 3 NXE 3400B in stock after discussion.

Why don't you think about 3350B?"

Lu An thought about it and agreed, "3+1+1 is fine." ”

The latter 1 refers to the NXE 3450B or other successors.

Vendink, of course, got enough authorization to complete the closing on the spot!

Three NXE 3400Bs plus one NXE 3350B are 380 million euros.

Together with the advance payment of 120 million euros for the successor, it is converted into a total of 3.75 billion yuan.

Lu An is actually quite particular about this kind of thing, such as extra costs such as coordination and queue cutting.

In a word, things that can be solved with money are not a problem for Mr. Lu......
