Chapter 226: We've Got the Technique!
"And Asmail, which produces EUV lithography machines, monopolizes 80% of the world's lithography machine sales, and has EUV lithography machines, Amejian's Intel, and Hanguo's Xingxing.
and a few companies such as TSMC can manufacture high-end and complex chips, in such a situation, not only for Huawei company, but also for the entire chip manufacturing industry in our country, it is like a sword hanging over the head. ”
"If TSMC can't withstand the pressure and refuses to provide foundry services, even if HiSilicon has the world's most advanced chip design concept,
All high-end chips will also be completely disrupted, 5G will become a month in the water, and our Internet of Things technology change and innovation, and even the development of the Internet of Everything and artificial intelligence, will also stagnate. ”
The audience was still silent, and no one knew what Ye Fan wanted to say, but what Ye Fan said was indeed very reasonable.
The current situation of chips is a pain that we cannot solve at the root.
"So, the lithography machine is too important to us, and it can be said that it even affects the future development trend of our high-tech.
So with our domestic strength, can we manufacture a lithography machine with our own intellectual property rights? Ye Fan asked.
Everyone shook their heads, and their faces were not optimistic.
"I think everyone here has the answer in their hearts, and that is no."
"The reason why the lithography machine is known as the crown jewel of the world's semiconductor industry is the crystallization of modern industrial civilization and wisdom of today's human beings."
"It contains the essence of mathematics, optics, fluid mechanics, machinery, precision instruments, polymer physics and chemistry, automation, image recognition and many other disciplines.
What is the concept of ASML's fifth-generation EUV extreme ultraviolet lithography machine, 7nm machining accuracy? This is equivalent to two large planes from takeoff to landing,
Always go hand in hand, a knife sticks out from one plane and engraves the rice grains of another, and it can't be carved yet. ”
"Behind this lithography machine is the concentration of hundreds of years of the top engineering technology, material technology, and design level in the entire West.
Some countries have to polish an optical lens millions of times, so ASML once said that even if the drawings are made public, others will not be able to build a lithography machine as strong as them. ”
"It's even more difficult to make this kind of thing than an aircraft carrier, because no country in the world can produce a lithography machine on its own.
At least 90% of the components of EUV lithography machines come from other countries, and some countries provide advanced technology.
As well as world-class Zeiss lenses, optical equipment technology from the Sunrise Empire, process distribution provided by Intel, TSMC, Xingxingxing, and bearings from other countries,
They are all shareholders of ASML and have the right of first refusal to supply lithography machines, and other countries can only wait if they want to order. Ye Fan looked at everyone who seemed to have been splashed with a basin of cold water, and said lightly.
"If I remember correctly, in 2018, SMIC ordered a lithography machine from ASML, and the delivery time was tentatively scheduled for early 2019, and in the next few months,
Amejian tried every possible means to block the deal, and on the eve of the delivery, ASLM's factory caught fire inexplicably, so the delivery time was postponed to mid-2020.
Under many pressures, the Netherlands stopped renewing the export license for lithography machines. Ye Fan's eyes fell on a big man from SMIC.
"Yes, it caught fire inexplicably in the early stage of delivery, hehe, what's so greasy in it, I don't want to say more." The big guy smiled wryly and shook his head.
For this lithography machine, they can be said to have waited and waited, looked forward to and looked forward to, but they have never waited and looked forward to the arrival of this lithography machine.
Without the lithography machine, they would not be able to produce chips, even if everything else was ready, they would not be able to make chips, because the lithography machine was the most critical step, and the neck was directly stuck.
"Therefore, it is not advisable to be a comprador, and the idea that it is better to buy than to build, and it is better to rent than to buy, is the biggest stumbling block for us in the past 20 years or so in modern times."
"We must have something of our own, so that we can not be controlled by others, so that we will not be like a building built on the beach, which is gently pushed by the waves and collapses."
"It can be said that even if they don't ban the sale of lithography machines, just relying on normal business processes, they can ensure that our chip industry will always lag behind each other for at least three years.
I believe many people will ask, why is chip technology so important, why didn't we develop chip technology earlier? ”
Why?
Many people don't know why, but some bigwigs in the chip industry are clear.
"If an organ in the human body is working properly, people will ignore it, and only when it hurts, will they realize that something is wrong, and the reason why chip technology is widely concerned by us today is because the ruling ban makes us hurt."
"Why didn't we develop chip technology a few decades ago? Because at that time, we were in pain all over our bodies, as big as two bombs and one star to protect our home and defend the country.
To the textile technology of life, grain technology, household appliance production technology, we who started from scratch, difficult one after another, behind the clothing, food, housing and transportation that we are accustomed to today, is the efforts of countless scientific researchers for generations. ”
"More than ten years ago, the gap between our chip technology and the world was not so big, and we were faced with two choices, either to sacrifice the living standards of the people and invest huge amounts of money in basic scientific research.
Either sacrifice the entire industry and focus on improving the happiness of the people, we chose the latter, so our chip industry can only be handled by others. ”
"Today, to live or to die forces us to make a choice once again."
"Although the result is good, but the process is very long, we think back to the life of 20 years ago, we can only use Nokia brick machine, no computer login,
There is no home broadband, no mobile phone has WiFi function, no Taobao can not shop online, no social media, you can only play forums and send emails, you don't even think about the glory of kings,
I want to ask everyone, are you willing to use your best twenty years of youth in this state to wait for the silent development of the motherland? ”
In the face of Ye Fan's question, many of the people present nodded, but a small number shook their heads silently, and then nodded hurriedly.
All this was seen by Ye Fan.
"What they want is for us to go back to the days when hundreds of millions of shirts were exchanged for planes, but I want to say that surrender and defeat end the same, so we have no way out but victory."
Ye Fan turned around and pointed to the big screen of more than 200 square meters.
Origin sends a text to the big screen, one of the revised passages from the Six Kingdoms, scrolling.
Grandfather of Si Tu.
Frost dew, cutting thorns.
to have a place of size.
The children and grandchildren do not pity it, and give it to others, like abandoning grass mustard.
Cut five cities today, cut ten cities tomorrow, and sleep peacefully overnight.
However, the land of China is limited, the enemy's desire is unlimited, and the devotion is complicated, and the invasion is more urgent.
The remnants of a certain Xing are still left on the south bank, and now the butcher's knife has arrived.
.....
This passage came to an abrupt end here, but everyone saw this passage in their eyes, recalled some encounters in their hearts, and couldn't help but be full of grief and indignation.
"And I ask you, what do you want to do?" Ye Fan looked at the eyes of everyone in the audience and asked.
"We should develop our own research, comprador is no longer advisable, only relying on ourselves is king!" A big guy took the microphone and spoke.
"Yes, I am willing to fully support the development of chips, let alone wait for 20 years, even if it is 30 years."
....
A lot of people are excited.
"No, we don't need to wait for twenty years of development in silence, I want to say here." Ye Fan made a shushing gesture, and the audience suddenly fell silent.
"We at Datang Technology have mastered the 22nm precision lithography machine, and from now on we will open chip foundry services to the national market, and the days when the lithography machine industry will be monopolized by overseas markets will be completely a thing of the past."
"We at Datang Technology announce that we have mastered the technology for 22nm and even higher-end lithography machines!"
"At the same time, I would like to say that after decades of hard work, we will be back at the top of the food chain! How our fathers won you before, how can we win again today! ”
