Chapter 257: Partners are all over the place!
Neutron Star Technology, Chemistry Building, Jiang Haoran's office.
The battle over electronic chemistry, which lasted for more than two months, has finally come to an end, and all the technicians in the entire department have a smile on their faces.
In the past two months, the prices of photoresist, fluoropolyimide, and high-purity hydrogen fluoride have been reduced again and again, almost once every three days.
Suppliers see that there is money to be made, and all the raw materials used to make the above three chemicals have increased in price to a certain extent.
The competition between the Foot Basin Chicken Chemical Alliance and the Neutron Star Chemical Alliance did not give an inch, allowing raw material suppliers to seize this opportunity.
In just two months, three-quarters of the 30 billion funds allocated to the Elemental Evolution Department were spent.
The last confrontation a week ago even allowed three electronic chemicals to be sold for almost nothing.
Although the cost of raw materials has risen, labor costs have risen, and technical costs have decreased, the maintenance costs and procurement costs of equipment have risen again.
All these became the last straw that crushed the chemical alliance such as Shin-Etsu, JSR, Tokyo Oika, and Mitsubishi.
Everyone can see that Neutron Star Technology has no intention of earning this money back at all.
With the determination to win the right to speak, not to mention the loss of more than 20 billion, even if all the company's R&D funds are invested in it.
After all, mastering the supply of this most upstream semiconductor material means standing above the heads of most semiconductor manufacturing companies.
From now on, others can threaten Neutron Stars with other material supply chains, and Neutron Stars can also threaten others with the excuse that electronic chemicals are not in supply.
It has formed a pattern of being feared, but the neutron star is not afraid of others.
"Opening the way with money is really invincible!" Jiang Haoran's face was flat, and he did not have the slightest excitement to overcome the excitement of the Foot Basin Chicken Chemical Alliance, which had spanned decades, as if he had done a trivial matter.
"It's a pity that this practice can't come often, otherwise it will become a public enemy of the world!"
In the electronic chemicals industry, footbasin chickens originally occupied so much market share that they could be called monopolies, so they could do whatever they wanted.
After Neutron Star Technology entered the market, it was a battle between the two parties, so it was possible to ignore the feelings of others.
DuPont, BASF, and Dow Chemical are not focused on electronic chemicals, so it is not distressing to directly cut the production of this chemical.
But once the neutron star makes a breakthrough in the fields of chips and lithography machines, and then continues to take the road of price butchers, I am afraid that it will not only face the encirclement and suppression of all high-tech companies in the world......
When the market economy is destroyed and the high-tech industry is transferred to China, and with such fanfare, the enemy will not be the technology company.
Therefore, crazy price wars like these two months may be banned in the future.
"Money is indeed a good thing, our neutron star technology has developed so far, technology is one of them, and another reason is that there is money ......" Zhong Zixing also sighed.
He is not a person who values money, but the road of scientific and technological development without money is equal to no technology.
"Only by entering the interstellar age can we reduce our dependence on money!"
"Take your vacation for a month, have fun at home, and don't go abroad yet!"
Zhong Zixing patted Jiang Haoran on the shoulder.
Photoresist, fluoropolyimide, and high-purity hydrogen fluoride, the three highest barriers to electronic chemicals, have broken through, with higher quality and lower price.
The world's strongest semiconductor manufacturers, led by Intel, Broadcom, MediaTek, NVIDIA, BOE, Micron, Lingfeiying, and TiySMC, have placed orders with the Element Evolution Department, shifting from the Foot Basin Chicken Chemical Alliance to the arms of Neutron Star Technology.
Who knows what chemical giants such as Shin-Etsu, JSR, and Tokyo Oika, who have lost this market, will do.
However, the most pleasing thing is undoubtedly that the Elemental Evolution Department has become a dominant department like the Information Technology Department, and there is no rival in the field of electronic chemistry, and the next step is to move in other directions.
For example, other applied chemistry, biochemistry, etc.
After going to the restaurant with Jiang Haoran for lunch, Zhong Zixing left the chemistry building and returned to the information technology department.
Not only did the Elemental Evolution Department win the first battle and win the most important market discourse, but the Information Technology Department also had good news.
After two months of user feedback, the perfection of the Galaxy operating system finally made the domestic electronics industry manufacturers see hope.
In addition to Huawei , vivo, oppo, Meizu and other mobile phone manufacturers, X Xiang, Asus, Shenzhou and other computer manufacturers, Haier, Gree, Changhong, Konka and other aspiring smart home e-commerce companies almost all have the intention of talking about cooperation.
The feedback of the Galaxy operating system is too perfect, with Xiaomi, a mobile phone that is not a top processor and memory produced by Neutron Star Technology, it can crush everything in terms of performance, and it has become synonymous with high-end mobile phones.
No one wants to let Xiaomi's family enjoy this kind of benefit exclusively, and Neutron Star Technology has no intention of hiding it privately, so without hesitation, he directly asked the Ministry of Commerce to give the idea of agreeing to cooperate, and the specific situation will be discussed in detail.
......
In October, the annual National Day, the official 3rd anniversary of the establishment of Neutron Star Technology.
Most of the people in the company have taken a vacation, and only some people who don't want to go out to play remain in the company to continue to immerse themselves in research and development, and most of the people who have gone out to play have also returned......
At ten o'clock in the morning, Wang Li, the chief designer of the sensor team of the micro-integration department, came out of the dormitory building and walked to the office building sleepily.
He suddenly had some ideas and was eager to put them into practice, so he didn't change the crayon Xiaoxin pajamas on his body, the bags under his eyes were a little heavy, and he looked a little sloppy and had no energy.
However, there are so many such people in the whole company, and the researchers who come and go have long been surprised.
Speaking of sensors, this is an important device for detecting the information being measured, and it is an indispensable thing in the electronic information age, no less important than processors and memories.
The types alone are divided into pressure sensors, humidity sensors, temperature sensors, flow sensors, liquid level sensors, ultrasonic sensors, and so on.
For a smartphone, you need at least seven types, which is very important.
And Wang Li, a leader in sensor design, became the leader of this newly established R&D team as soon as he came in.
As soon as he entered the microintegration building, he sensed that the atmosphere was not quite right.
In the past, when I walked into the company half-asleep, I could always hear many people arguing fiercely, so that various theories and technologies collided, but today, people are in a hurry, and anger is faintly visible on their faces.
Suddenly sobered up, Wang Li casually pulled a passing technician.
"Everybody ...... today. What's wrong? ”
ps: Wedding on the 18th, my sister-in-law's house on the 19th, and I can go home on the 20th to resume the update
