Chapter Ninety-Nine: 2 Billion for a Machine
Why are all the bigwigs competing so much?
Because the last shortcoming has finally been filled.
In recent years, under the national system, no major breakthroughs have been made except for high-end lithography machines, but other equipment fields have borne fruit.
For example, photoresist materials, etching machines, ion implanters, precipitation equipment, etc., have all made breakthroughs and reached the world's advanced level, and the production equipment industry chain has basically been opened.
As long as high-end domestic EUV comes out, it indicates that domestic 7nm, 5nm, and 3nm chips will soon be manufactured in large quantities, like a garden in spring!
"Don't come and rob it!"
Yu Dazui roared angrily and said: "Longyao's high-end chips, are waiting for this Tyrannosaurus EUV, and everyone will have high-end mobile phone chips available at that time, not only for Longyao mobile phones, but also for rice mobile phones. β
"The first Tyrannosaurus EUV must be owned by Long Yao!"
"Fart!"
The representative of Huaxin International immediately retorted: "You Longyao don't need to make your own cores, chip manufacturing work, just leave it to a professional chip foundry like us, we are the most professional, Longyao has a serious lack of experience in this area, and the most professional things should be handed over to the most professional companies to do." β
"The first Tyrannosaurus EUV, Huaxin International is bound to win, and we will provide the most high-end chip products for all domestic enterprises, including Longyao."
"Hehe~"
Yu Dazui sneered at him: "Three years ago, Long Yao was suppressed, it seems that Huaxin International said in the listing announcement that it would abide by international public rules, that is, abide by the ban issued by the United States, who let you Huaxin also purchase a large amount of equipment from the United States?" Although he did not fall into the ground, he could only clear up the relationship and stand by and watch. β
"Hehe, if the United States announces a crackdown on you, even if there is a Tyrannosaurus EUV, I guess I still don't dare to make chips for Longyao, right? After all, you can't remove all the technology and equipment from the United States at once, and you haven't found all the alternative options, am I right? β
"Ahem!"
The representative of Huaxin International coughed twice in embarrassment, and his momentum weakened significantly: "At that time, everyone did this...... But! Now we dare to OEM for Longyao, even if we are immediately suppressed by the United States, we have hoarded a large number of rice equipment, enough to maintain normal production for two years, and after two years, domestic equipment will continue to improve, and there will be no need for the United States at that time. β
"But it's a fact that you have abandoned Long Yao!"
Yu pointed at everyone with a big mouth, with a sad and indignant face: "You are greedy for life and afraid of death, and you have not expressed your verbal support, although you have not fallen into the ground, but you have all cleared up the relationship, for fear of getting involved, and now you are still grabbing Long Yao's lithography machine, do you have a conscience?" Can people be shameless to this extent? β
These words made the deputies extremely unhappy, and the firepower was concentrated on Yu Dazui's head.
"How can you talk like that?"
"Normal business competition, how can it be mixed with conscience, Long Yao used to pit consumers with conscience, and oppressed his own employees with conscience?"
"Long Yao has been miserable in the past few years, should he take the best things? Someone else has to let go? β
"Don't talk about so many others, it's a big deal to have an auction! Whoever bids higher buys the Tyrannosaurus EUV. β
"That's right, live auction, fair competition, the highest bidder wins."
"Brother Li Yi!"
Yu Dazui ran directly to Li Yi's side, and looked at Wei Ming who was sitting at the top with a flattering face: "And Mr. Wei, please also say a few words, I remember that two months ago, your company specially issued a "Statement of Support", expressing support for Longyao Company, EUV will be manufactured within the year, and Longyao will be given priority at that time." β
"This statement is also hung in the statement on your company's official website, now that the Tyrannosaurus EUV has been successfully manufactured, Longyao Company is very grateful for the supply of the first Tyrannosaurus EUV, thank you very much for your help, on behalf of Longyao, I sincerely thank you again, thank you for your support to Longyao!"
He bowed to Wei Ming again and again and thanked him again and again.
"Old Yu, you're thick-skinned enough."
Li Yi said with a cold expression: "You said on Weibo that everything is fine, there is no shortage of lithography machines, and you politely refused our solidarity, but millions of netizens saw this passage, maybe it is still hanging there." β
"Brother Li Yi! Colleagues for many years, why bother? Is it that hard to help say a nice word? β
Yu stomped his feet angrily, and hurriedly looked at Wei Ming with a smile: "Mr. Wei, blame me for having no eyes at that time, and I didn't know the strength of black hole technology at all. β
"Mr. Wei, you are wise and chic, handsome, and extraordinary, you will definitely forgive me for my ignorance for a while, and give me a chance to cooperate again, just like an upright, brave, merciful, and righteous white knight in his heart, save Long Yao from fire and water, in my eyes, in the eyes of Long Yao's hundreds of thousands of employees, you are the most dazzling white knight, and you will definitely extend your helping hand."
Vomit~
Such a large amount of fleshy sycophants, listening to the representatives of other companies, a burst of nausea.
Li Yi also felt his scalp tingle, as if it was the first time he met this old colleague, what he was best at was not bragging, how did it become a sycophant?
The braggart has become a sycophant, and this character image can be called a sudden change in painting style.
"Mr. Yu, the credit belongs to all the R&D personnel, and I am not a white knight."
Being so praised by the big guy, Wei Ming naturally couldn't do it, but he still waved his hand humbly: "If you help Long Yao, we did say that considering Long Yao's difficult situation now, the previous promise is still valid." β
"Thank you, Mr. Wei! Thank you, Mr. Wei! β
Yu Dazui suddenly smiled and saw that he couldn't see his eyes, rubbed his palms, licked his thick lips and said: "The first Tyrannosaurus EUV, I, Long Yao, will laugh, Mr. Wei, when can I send someone to pick up the goods?" β
"Don't worry!"
Wei Ming shook his head and said, "The price has not been set, so there is such a hurry to pick up the goods?" β
"Money is not a problem, how many units does Mr. Wei plan to sell?"
"Now the production of Tyrannosaurus EUV is limited, and within this year, I don't know if we can build three? I don't know if the production capacity for next year can be increased to 1 unit per month, and more than 12 units will be delivered a year, as for the price......"
Wei Ming said in a deep voice: "The price of Esmead EUV, you all know, the performance and efficiency are so backward, 150 million euros can't be delivered, about 1 billion units, our Tyrannosaurus EUV performance is much more advanced, one efficiency is at least two or three, each unit only sells for 2 billion, this is an absolute conscience price, do you recognize it?" β
"Recognition, recognition!"
"The price is very conscientious."
"Efficiency is life, and selling 3 billion units is not too much."
"Only 2 billion?"
Yu Dazui exclaimed: "This price is too conscientious, we have all the first few units, Mr. Wei, this year and next year, how many units will be produced, how many units will we Longyao want!" β
His wealthy appearance caused other company representatives to gnash their teeth.
"Mr. Yu, listen to me first."
Wei Ming shook his head: "I mean, when the production of Tyrannosaurus EUV is stable next year, the price will be set at 2 billion per unit, just like a commodity on the shelf, but the Tyrannosaurus EUV produced this year, the price is determined by you, determined by the market, you can make a bid, the minimum is 2 billion, the maximum is capped at 5 billion, and then the highest price wins, the black hole company will not make more money from you, but this year also needs to supplement a part of the profits, so as to increase the output of lithography machines next year." β
"Let's start bidding."
Yu Dazui finally understood.
The first Tyrannosaurus EUV is promised to be sold to Long Yao first, but the one with the highest price will get it, and other companies will also have opportunities.
If during the bidding process, Long Yao and other companies have shouted the upper limit of 5 billion, then Long Yao will be given priority.
Naturally, the first domestic EUV is of great significance, for Huaxin International, Rice, Tianhong, Blu-ray and other companies that have been listed, as long as the shareholders announce the successful purchase of the first domestic EUV, then the stock price can soar by at least 10% on the same day.
Compared with the increase in market value of tens of billions and hundreds of billions, what is just 5 billion?
After a while.
Representatives of 6 companies have shouted out a quotation of 5 billion very simply, all with a relaxed face.
"Longyao Company, 5 billion."
Yu Dazui raised his hand helplessly, Long Yao's company's cash flow is actually almost near the red line, and if the five billion is paid, the funds will be obviously tight.
But he had to raise his hand again, Longyao Company wanted to break out of the predicament, and it must take down this Tyrannosaurus EUV, no matter how much it cost.
Because Long Yao had priority, he quickly announced that he had won this EUV.
Li Yi was a little unbearable, and said to Wei Ming: "5 billion is indeed a bit exaggerated, since we have supported Long Yao before, let's not slaughter too ruthlessly, and public opinion may also have a lot of complaints, saying that we are black-hearted knights." β
"Then let's get a 10% discount."
Wei Ming pondered for a while and said: "This year is a special situation, the supply exceeds demand, and the price of the mass production version next year is only 2 billion conscience price per unit, which must be emphasized many times." β
"Understood!"
"And."
Wei Ming continued: "Our Tyrannosaurus EUV will be banned from overseas for at least ten years, and none of it will be sold abroad, which must also be publicized!" Our best products are only used by companies in their own countries. β
"Good!"
Li Yi nodded vigorously, this one is too good, he raised his hands in approval.
β¦β¦
August 2, afternoon.
In fact, it was the day after the release of the Tyrannosaurus EUV.
It's not just domestic public opinion that fryers.
Foreign public opinion circles and science and technology circles have also completely fried the pot.
βwhatοΌ Huaguo has made a more advanced EUV lithography machine? That's impossible! β
