Without warning, Xingchen Technology suddenly issued an announcement that it would officially launch the fourth-generation lithography technology tomorrow evening after Chinese time.

"Fourth-generation lithography machines? If I'm not mistaken, ASML's third-generation machine has just been shipped, and SMIC spent more than $100 million to get the only one in China. ”

"Yes, not long ago we were still celebrating, Huaxia finally has three generations of lithography machines, it has only been a few days, Xingchen Technology is going to release the fourth generation? What a span! ”

"The third-generation extreme ultraviolet EUV has achieved a wavelength of 13.5 nanometers, and if it continues to develop, unless it is lasered, or the laser is mixed with ultraviolet light, it will encounter physical bottlenecks, and EUV is already the limit in terms of ultraviolet technology."

"According to what you say, the fourth-generation lithography of Xingchen Technology is a laser system?"

"Nine times out of ten, it is impossible to continue to shorten the wavelength without breaking through the physical upper limit."

"Awesome! The technology of Xingchen Technology is no longer a traditional exposure technology, but a set of laser scattering platform! ”

"It's too much fun! ASML must have exploded now, before today, they were the only lithography machine manufacturer in the world, and they were fierce and invincible, but in the blink of an eye, they were a whole generation behind Xingchen Technology! ”

"Hahahaha, this face is really cool! But then again, why is such an important announcement being made at three o'clock in the morning? Could it be that the people of Xingchen Technology are all night owls? ”

"You don't even know this? Last night's thrilling level was comparable to Mars hitting the Earth! Xingchen Technology originally did not plan to push the fourth generation of lithography so soon, and the reason why the temporary announcement was issued at three o'clock in the morning was entirely because the 5G war broke out in advance! ”

"Are we too lonely? When did it happen? ”

"When I opened my eyes, it was all news about the fourth generation of optical technology, what happened last night?"

"Needless to say, of course it's war!"

At one o'clock in the morning, North America announced comprehensive sanctions against Huawei Group, taking the lead in firing the first shot of the war, and then at two o'clock in the morning, He Tingbo, president of Huawei's subsidiary HiSilicon Semiconductor, officially announced that he would face the war! Launched Huawei's Strategic Reserve. ”

"This back-and-forth contest has shocked the whole world, and no one expected that Huawei Group, which has been repeatedly sanctioned by the North American authorities and even driven out of the North American market, will be so domineering, and there will be a lot of discussion in the science and technology circle, speculating about what black technology is hidden in Huawei's strategic reserves."

"Huawei Group and the North American authorities are fighting each other, which is already very lively, right?"

"Who would have thought that the time would come to three o'clock in the morning, Xingchen Technology suddenly asked the Administration Department to issue an open letter, claiming that the fourth generation of lithography technology will be announced this evening!"

"This is good, the entry of Xingchen Technology directly made the scene completely out of control and fell into madness! The whole world thought that this was a drama in which the North American authorities bullied the weak and bullied Huawei, who would have thought that it would turn into a battle between the two Chinese heroes against the Bald Eagle Group in minutes, and Huawei is not fighting alone! Xingchen Technology is also good! ”

"You say, isn't this kind of drama extremely exciting?"

"I'll go, it's too exciting! When we were still sleeping, something so big happened? ”

"If I knew this was the case, I must have stayed up late last night, and it was a great regret in my life that I didn't witness the historic moment when the war broke out."

In the early morning of the next day, the people who ate melons in China were furious, and they began to follow the clues to find out what happened that night just passed.

At one o'clock in the morning, the Bureau of Industry and Security of the North American Department of Commerce officially added Huawei to the entity list.

People who don't know the truth may not understand that the inclusion of Huawei in the entity list does not seem to be a serious matter, and Huawei, a company that is regarded as a thorn in the side of the West, has long been on countless blacklists.

So far, Huawei, as the world's largest supplier of telecommunications equipment, one of the world's largest mobile phone suppliers, one of the largest computer suppliers, and one of the largest cloud service providers, has banned the sale of its products in North America, which is incredible.

It is precisely by relying on the North American market that Huawei's old rivals, Nokia and Ericsson, barely survived, otherwise Huawei's firepower would crush them every minute.

Anyway, in any case, Huawei Group has been suffering from the West all the time abroad, and it has been living a hard life haha.

In China, friends with ulterior motives buy the media and well-known big Vs, crazy and rhythmic, slander Huawei for engaging in patriotic marketing, satirize Huawei for not having stock, seize Huawei's shortcomings, and repeatedly blow the hammer, but turn a blind eye to their own shortcomings.

Although Huawei is strong, it responds to the old saying that Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, whether at home or abroad, life is not easy.

It's just that foreigners slander Huawei, NetEase and the like engage in Huawei's black materials at two ends in three days, and Sina publishes three articles in a row praising Samsung's stinky feet and belittling Huawei's black drafts in one day, what kind of stuff is this!

Foreigners wish that a Huaxia Optimus Giant Pillar like Huawei would fall down with a bang, and the Huaxia people not only didn't help, but also coaxed, a group of fucking bastards!

But in any case, Tianxingjian, the gentleman is constantly striving for self-improvement, the terrain is kun, the gentleman is carrying things with virtue, Huawei's life is hard enough, and the road has been bumpy and bumpy, all of which have been carried down and have survived to this day.

Don't underestimate this Bureau of Industry and Security of the Ministry of Commerce, now it is on the list, and the next step is for North American companies to fully break off friendship with Huawei!

Micron's memory chips, Convax's data protection solutions, Amphenol's cable equipment, onsemi's optical image stabilization, autofocus technology, Keysight's communications test solutions, Schindler's communication-grade PCBs, Synopsys' artificial intelligence and IP interface technologies, Megacom's RF technology, Broadcom's positioning hub and RF, Texas Instruments' DSP and analog chips.

And so on, all the core suppliers of the above-mentioned Huawei Group, as well as partners, will completely terminate the cooperation with Huawei Group, and even a radio frequency, an anti-shake will not be sold to Huawei, this is the most dangerous situation, they want to cut off Huawei's goods, and force Huawei to death!

You must know that not long ago, the North American authorities used the same means to just force another communication giant in China, ZTE Group...

These companies are not widely known, in fact, even the technology enthusiasts who have been in the tech world for many years may not know that they exist, but in the professional field of semiconductors, they are extremely important.

One day, when people who are accustomed to entertainment gossip open their eyes and look at those unknown professional fields with obscure terms, they may suddenly find that what is really profoundly influencing the world and promoting the progress of the world is the power of professionalism and science, not a little fresh meat with a handsome face.

One thing, the people who eat melons are really right, these straight men of steel in Xingchen Technology are really a group of night owls, and a considerable number of them don't sleep in the middle of the night, including Luo Jia.

So when the news came from North America, Luo Jia knew it immediately, and he was deeply worried about Huawei's situation, and completely cut off supply, whether it was hardware or software, this was too big a blow to Huawei, where to find a replacement for a while?

Although Xingchen Technology has a plan to enter the semiconductor field, this plan has just begun, and Huaxia Technology has chosen different routes.

Huawei Group takes the route of patent plus design, that is, Qualcomm, Broadcom, and Nvidia, which do not manufacture chips themselves, but are only responsible for design and research.

And Xingchen Technology's path is relatively hard, they decided to take Intel's path, not only to design their own chips, but also to make their own, and even light chips are not enjoyable, Luo Jia also plans to take down all the upstream technologies such as lithography machines, masks, etchings.

"North America is holding back the bad, and it is obvious that Huawei is going to die, but we can't help much." Li Moran said.

Recently, An Ran's wife is going to give birth to a child, so An Ran spends more time at home, and the brainstorming group that is still fighting at night is not An Ran.

"No, that's too bad." "Our semiconductor program has just begun, and it would be nice if North America could give us another two years," Luo Jia said. ”

Li Moran said, "They obviously calculated the right time, and it is the right time to start at this time, while our semiconductor plan has not yet been completed, otherwise it may not be the case who will die." ”

Luo Jia said, "No, at such an important juncture, you must help Huawei, and I will call Mr. Ren." ”

Li Moran was steady, he stopped Luo Jia and said: "Wait a minute, Huawei must be messed up, let's talk about it after dawn, let Huawei stabilize the military spirit first, North America is ruthless enough, they actually used the strength of a country to kill a company, now the people should see it clearly, in this world, who is the enemy and who is the friend." ”

Luo Jia nodded, "Okay, I'll call Mr. Ren after dawn tomorrow and see if we can help them do something." ”

They discussed it like this, and were ready to wait until dawn.

However, at dawn, when the time reached two o'clock in the morning, an internal email from HiSilicon directly exploded the whole network! The Huawei employees who haven't slept yet, as well as colleagues in the technology industry, directly blew up their eyes.

The full text of the email is below.

Dear colleagues of HiSilicon,

At this point, you probably know that Huawei is on the entity list of the U.S. Department of Commerce's Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS).

Years ago, when it was still a breezy season, the company made the assumption of survival to the limit, predicting that one day, all the advanced chips and technologies in the United States would be unavailable, and Huawei would continue to serve customers.

For this assumption, which was thought to never happen, thousands of HiSilicon children embarked on the most tragic long march in the history of science and technology, creating a "spare tire" for the company's survival.

For thousands of days and nights, we have traveled hard under the stars.

Huawei's product range is so broad, and the technologies and devices used are so diverse, and we have failed and puzzled countless times in the face of thousands of scientific and technological problems, but we have never given up.

In the years that followed, when we gradually got out of the confusion and saw hope, we were inevitably a little lost and unwilling, worried that many chips would never be enabled and became a spare tire that had been pressed in the security cabinet.

Today, the year of fate has turned to this extreme and dark hour, when the superpower has mercilessly interrupted the technological and industrial system of global cooperation, made the most crazy decision, and put Huawei on the entity list under unwarranted conditions.

Today, it is the choice of history!

All the spare tires we have built have all turned "positive" overnight!

Years of hard work, overnight, to fulfill the company's commitment to continuous service to customers!

Yes, these efforts have been linked to turn the tide and ensure the strategic security of most of the company's products, and the continuous supply of most of the products!

Today, this darkest day, is the day when every ordinary son and daughter of HiSilicon becomes a hero of the times!

Huawei is committed to bringing digital to every person, home, and organization to build a fully connected, intelligent world.

In the future, in order to realize this ideal, we must not only maintain open innovation, but also achieve scientific and technological independence!

In the future, there will be no more decade to build a spare tire and then change the tire, the buffer zone has disappeared, and every new product will have to be synchronized with the "technology self-reliance" program.

The road ahead is more difficult, we will use courage, wisdom and perseverance to straighten our backs under the pressure of the limit and strive to move forward!

The monstrous waves show the true colors of heroes, and the hardships and hardships cast Noah's Ark!

He Tingbo.

In the early morning of a certain year, a certain month, and a certain day.

After reading the letter, Luo Jia immediately felt that the blood was boiling in his chest, and tears were hanging down!

What can be said so far?

Huawei is awesome!! (Broken sound)

What kind of company is this, they actually have an extreme plan and a full set of backup plans!

For a long time, Huawei has been preparing for today's ultimate fight against North American hegemony.

More than 100 billion R&D funds every year, more than 100,000 patent applications per year, all for today!

The moment she saw the email, Luo Jia recalled the April 18, 2018 photo that tech insiders will never forget.

In the photo, three elderly men are dragging their luggage, with worried faces and hurried steps.

It was 77 years old, long since retired, the founder of ZTE who had been idle at home for many years, in order to save ZTE, he was ordered to go out of the mountains again, run around the world, and begged bitterly.

Today, the same stick of sanctions has fallen on Huawei Group, and Huawei Group has made a different choice, they have decided to start the extreme survival plan and fight the North American authorities!

The magnificent battle of semiconductors has begun, what else can Luo Jia say as a Chinese?

Huawei, awesome!!

"Quick, can't wait any longer! You don't have to hide it! Luo Jia was in the early hours of the morning, with red eyes, and ordered loudly: "Make an announcement, show your hole cards!" In this battle, we will accompany Huawei to do it! ”
