Chapter 188: Chips are higher than gold

Zhao Guowei, in his 50s, is the chairman of Unigroup Group.

Zhang Weijing of Zhongxin International called him last night and described a technology to him.

Zhao Guowei's eyes widened when he heard this, and he exclaimed: "This is impossible! ”

"At first, I thought it was impossible!"

Zhang Weijing said on the phone: "But now the yield rate of Zhongxin's 14nm chip is 99.2%, and the production efficiency has increased by 40%!" If you don't believe it, you can come and visit. ”

Zhao Guowei's body shook violently: "...... That is simply a mythical technology, now the yield rate of Ziguang's DDR chips is less than 30%, even if it is increased by 60%, the production capacity will skyrocket, which is equivalent to building another memory particle factory of tens of billions. ”

He hurriedly said: "Mr. Zhang, quickly give me the phone number of Mr. Chen of Xinghai Company, I want to call him!" ”

So early the next morning, Zhao Guowei got on a plane to Shanghai and rushed to Xinghai Technology Company.

……

Strategy room.

"Mr. Chen, I have admired your name for a long time, and it is a great honor to meet you."

stepped forward and held the hand of the young man in front of him, Zhao Guowei was full of emotion, as if his son was also of this age, right? Mr. Chen in front of him has become the object of his most anticipated and valued cooperation, and his eyes are full of heat.

couldn't help but sigh: "The future is terrible, the future is terrible, I am really old, and the future must be for you young people." ”

"Mr. Zhao, you have won the award, you are the backbone of the country, and your fighting spirit is worth learning from me."

Chen Jin was in reverence, he admired entrepreneurs like Zhao Guowei, under the requirements of the state, they knew that the disparity in strength and the huge gap were huge, but they still tried their best to catch up and strive to make up for the country's shortcomings one after another.

On the surface, they are entrepreneurs, but in fact, each of them is a brave warrior and an unsung hero, who undertakes arduous tasks, endures cold eyes and ridicule around them, and fills in the shortcomings and gaps little by little in the lonely struggle...... It's like the Nuwa who mends the leakage of the sky.

After a few brief pleasantries.

Xinghai Technology Co., Ltd. and Tsinghua Unigroup soon reached a strategic cooperation, mainly in three aspects:

First, Xinghai Technology provides "virtual factory" technology to improve the yield rate of Unisplendour DDR memory particles, assist in the research and development of more advanced DDR4, DDR5, DDR6, and even HBM memory with bandwidth of more than 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB/s.

Yes, the advantage of DDR memory is that it is cheap and has a large capacity, but the bandwidth is small, generally between 3.2GB, 4.8GB, and 6.4GB/s, but the bandwidth of HBM memory can easily be increased dozens of times or hundreds of times...... It's just that the cost of production is higher.

HBM memory has not been popularized on a large scale, not because it has no prospects, and the cost can be reduced through mass production.

The reason why it has not been fully promoted is because there are only a few manufacturers who have mastered HBM memory technology, and there is no competition, so it is better to hide this technology and squeeze the DDR toothpaste first!

Wait for competitors to emerge, and then sacrifice HBM memory and eliminate DDR technology on the market!

It can be seen from this that in the field of memory chips, the gap between country Z and foreign countries is terrible.

Terrible to the opponent's hand, I saved a tube full of toothpaste.

Under normal circumstances, it will take at least ten years for the enterprises of country Z in this field to catch up with foreign countries!

However, with the help of Xinghai Technology's "virtual factory" technology, this catch-up cycle will be greatly shortened.

Second, Xinghai Technology holds a 1.2% stake in Unigroup in the form of technology shares.

Unisplendour, like Zhongxin International, is also a listed company, with a current market value of 125 billion.

1.2% of the shares, indicating the "virtual factory" provided by Chen Jin, is worth 1.5 billion.

In addition, more than 100 million LPDDR3/LPDDR4 orders have been placed for products such as Wow Robot, Xiaoxing Learning Machine, and Bangbang Robot.

Moreover, the CPUs used in all products of Xinghai Technology are also purchased from the CPU solutions of Spreadtrum, a subsidiary of Tsinghua Unigroup, and the orders have exceeded 100 million pieces.

All NAND storage particles are also purchased from Dajiang Storage Plant, a subsidiary of Tsinghua Unigroup.

Therefore, from these aspects, the close cooperation between Xinghai Technology and Unisplendour Group is not weaker than that of Zhongxin International.

So Chen Jin also set his sights on the shares of Tsinghua Unigroup, and asked the stock market traders of Xinghai Company to buy a large number of shares of Tsinghua Unigroup.

5 billion ...... purchased in a short period of time It accounts for about 4% of the market capitalization of Unigroup Group.

Coupled with the authorization of the virtual factory, Xinghai Technology's shareholding in Unigroup has increased to 5.2%.

Considering that Tsinghua Unigroup is a state-owned listed company, and the management is in the hands of the state, Chen Jin's requirements are not high, holding about 10% of the shares of Tsinghua Unigroup, and getting an investor to participate in the board of directors, he is more satisfied.

Chen Jin was suddenly full of pride.

"I have Zhongxin International on my left and Tsinghua Unigroup on my right, and all of my CPU, Ai chips, and memory chips are produced independently! Build a chip empire! Since then, in the field of chips, invincible! ”

What kind of companies like Brother Gu and Sanxin don't want Xinghai Technology to stop crushing forward.

If you dare to go against Xinghai Technology, you won't end well!

But......

Even if Chen Jin wanted to step on Brother Gu and kill Sanxin immediately, he couldn't solve the urgent need.

The output of LPDDR3 chips at Unigroup is only about 120,000 per day due to the low yield rate.

Even if all the adjustments are made to Xinghai Technology, it will take at least 100 days to meet the needs of the majority of parents in the third year of junior high school and the third year of high school.

The "virtual factory" technology is powerful, but it is impossible to improve the yield rate of Unisplendour DDR memory in a few days, and it takes a month to build a virtual factory, and it will take at least two months to produce results.

The problem is that the majority of parents can't wait for two months!

The time limit left for Xinghai Technology is only two months!

I have to say that Sanxin Company really stabbed in the dead hole of Xinghai Technology this time.

After all, how can the parents of the vast number of parents in country Z who want their sons to become Chan and their daughters to become phoenixes tolerate the result that their children fail the college entrance examination because they do not have an intelligent learning machine?

If the problem is not solved in time, Xinghai Technology will be overwhelmed by countless angry parents.

Chen Jin himself also had to hide in Tibet, day and night, to avoid being recognized by any parent.

Such a terrible end is unimaginable.

"Fortunately, I still have a planet on my hands."

Chen Jin raised his head and clenched his fists: "Fortunately, I have a big pit base!" ”

shook his head very helplessly, and said with a wry smile: "I just didn't expect that even if I am worth tens of billions, I will still be reduced to being a transporter and porter." ”

Not bad.

Last night, on the planet of Helfa, at the Dakeng base, Chen Jin took a few chip samples and gave Alice the production task of 15 million 4GB capacity LPDDR3 chips, requiring Alice to complete the production as quickly as possible, and he was in a hurry to use it.

"No problem, master, the memory chip of this technical level can be printed out in a high-precision capsule factory, and within five days, Alice guarantees to complete the task."

Alice packed the ticket, feeling that the task given to her by her master was too easy, and it was simply not challenging.

……

Five days later.

The 15 million chips packed and stored in fifty boxes were neatly placed in front of Chen Jin.

Chen Jin tried to lift one of the boxes and found a box of 300,000 chips, which, together with the boxes, weighed no more than 30 kilograms.

The average weight of each chip is less than 1g.

The price of a single piece is close to 100 yuan.

A suitcase is worth about 30 million.

And the 100 yuan cash worth 30 million yuan not only can't fit into this box, but also weighs more than 30 kilograms!

So at this moment, Chen Jin deeply realized the meaning of a sentence: "The value of chips is much higher than gold!" ”
