Chips, or CPUs, Bai Shiqiu is a literary and artistic worker, or simply said that he is a liberal arts student, or according to Derpy's Taiwanese saying, you are a literary group, what are you doing!

Yes, what are you doing, Bai Shiqiu really shouldn't be engaged in this aspect, he really doesn't understand.

However, he still has to intervene in this industry, otherwise, the future will not be easy.

TT made a mobile phone, and Bai Shiqiu also invested in robots for unmanned logistics, and also invested in DJI.

The development of these industries is very good, very good, and enviable.

But these are all chips that need to be used, CPUs are needed, and they are still necessary.

It is true that it can be purchased now, and it can even be purchased forever, but what if it can't be purchased?

In fact, from the perspective of economics, the economic activities that all human beings operate in the world today and who do not operate by themselves are called free market economies.

Well, to this should be added a capitalism, a capitalist free-market economy.

Economics itself is not a formula, economics itself is actually the study of the laws of human behavior, in the West economics and philosophy and sociology are not separated, or simply the same, such as the two mentors of Ma, they have always been called economists.

That is, the free market economy itself is a mode of behavior, the natural mode of behavior of human social operation, which is characterized by the allocation of resources, with the market and the allocation of resources, the law is that the big is evergrande, the strong are always strong, and the resources will converge to the highland.

That's right, this is the opposite of the Taoist doctrine that the way of heaven makes up for the deficiency and loses more than is lost.

But from another point of view, that is, capital is always looking for the lowest cost thing, and it is precisely because capital will converge to the high ground that capital needs cheaper production costs.

In the current situation, it is reasonable and low-cost to purchase chips from abroad, especially those large companies led by the United States.

The United States is also very smart, in fact, they are also doing the division of labor, at this point, Bai Shiqiu and Zhang Xiaodu had a discussion, during which Bai Shiqiu was pinched I don't know how many times.

This is all about TSMC.

Zhang Xiaodao has a great sense of honor, as an islander, she thinks TSMC is very powerful, very strong, and very awesome.

Bai Shiqiu agrees, because this is the case, after all, it is the world's largest wafer factory and EE company.

But the question is, what's the point of this?

Bai Shiqiu's explanation to Zhang Xiaodao was that this enterprise was actually assigned to Taiwan by the United States when it was doing the division of labor.

In fact, this enterprise is not a Taiwan enterprise, as long as you casually check the list of major shareholders of this enterprise, you can know that from the perspective of capital, it does not have much to do with Taiwan.

But this company is in Taiwan, it's really in Taiwan, it's not very ...... Upset?

Bai Shiqiu listed a lot of data, TSMC did contribute a lot of GDP in Taiwan, but how many resources did this company consume?

A large amount of electricity in Taiwan is used by this company, because the production of wafers is a particularly power-consuming industry, Zhang Zhongmou said that TSMC must not cut off power, even if it is broken for one second, it is a loss of tens of billions.

But you must know that Taiwan is shouting about the lack of electricity every day.

The reality is that if there is no TSMC, then Taiwan will not be short of electricity at all.

You know, Taiwan doesn't have too many resources that can be used for power generation, and some crude oil and coal have to be imported, so it is necessary to engage in nuclear power, but this island is still an earthquake-prone island, which is really dangerous.

But in reality it's nothing, it's the people.

TSMC has absorbed the best talent from the entire island of Taiwan.

Because of the good welfare, good treatment, and forced qualifications, of course, it attracts talents.

Nothing else needs to be said, just these two things, in fact, what is the result?

In fact, TSMC is a leech, lying on the island of Taiwan desperately sucking blood, but Taiwanese people still don't understand, and they still think how glorious it is to have this company.

It's very simple, although TSMC employees can get high benefits and high treatment, it is not in line with the cost paid by the whole of Taiwan.

The key is that the major shareholder of this company is the United States, and this company consumes so many resources, and the so-called welfare treatment is like a bone in a whole rib, and it is of such value.

If these individuals come out and go out to engage in some careers on their own, maybe it will not be worse than those in TSMC.

The GDP contributed by the island, which could not be enjoyed by the people on the island at all, fell into the pockets of the Yankees.

The saddest thing is that the people on the island still think that this is a super good business, an honor for themselves...... It can even be said to be terrible, very scary.

When Bai Shiqiu said this, Zhang Xiaodao really didn't want to accept it, but she knew that it was all true, so she ...... Postpartum depression is even worse, just pinch it if it's okay, it's scared, alas, it's bitter.

What about this chip...... The so-called industrial upgrading and industrial division of labor, handing over this kind of wafer foundry to Taiwan is to fix the order of this technology.

That's right, this is the technical order.

There is a lot of order in this world, a social order, a class order, and this technological order.

Bai Shiqiu, as a literary group in the mouth of a derpy, what he wants is to break this order!

To put it simply, we produce our own chips.

In fact, it is not difficult to put this thing bluntly, according to the history of computer development, at the beginning of the use of diodes, that is, the kind of light bulb-like things, and then to integrated circuits, and chips are the miniaturization of integrated circuits.

Special miniature ......

It's easy to say, but it's really not that easy, and it's very, very, very difficult.

Money doesn't always work.

So, as a member of the literary group, Bai Shiqiu, who doesn't understand this aspect and knows that it is difficult and difficult, what does he do?

Find Rebus.

Rebus thought that he had come to find Bai Shiqiu by himself, but when Bai Shiqiu said his thoughts, he suddenly became enlightened and understood.

It turned out to be Bai Shiqiu who was looking for him.

Why should he Rebus?

Because Rebus does get some powerful, weird relationships.

There is a plan called 863, and one of the plans in this plan is always overlooked or unexpected, that is, to make an online game.

At the beginning, because the development of domestic online games was very rapid, some people in the system wanted to try it.

The online game of Swordsman Romance is actually in this 863 plan, and Rebus is the person in charge.

This is why Bai Shiqiu was so confident when he was competing with his opponents in online games, not only because he knew that the future of online games could not be defined as 'psychotic', but also because he knew that in fact, the country was facing this thing with a positive attitude.

Mentor Ma told us that we should divide into two things, two points, that is, don't make one thing too rigid, try the good and the bad, maybe there will be unexpected gains.

Rebus is doing well in this online game, so when you have money, you can come to make Xiaomi.

That's basically what it's all about, but these are secrets, and most people don't know about them.

How did Bai Shiqiu know?

Of course he knew.

But how does Rebus think Bai Shiqiu knows?

There's someone above this person!

Rebus had heard all kinds of rumors about Bai Shiqiu before, and there was someone above him, it was definitely the most abundant and happy that had been rumored, and now he looked at it and talked about it, and it was cured, it was definitely like this.

O not OK?

That's OK, of course!

"Mr. Bai can do it, you know, chips, packaging and testing, and design, in fact, are all possible, but it is the kind of lithography machine, that is, the real production of things, it is too difficult to do." Rebus is not a layman, he understands this.

Actually, it's a temptation.

Bai Shiqiu replied with a smile: "That's right, but we can't limit ourselves to treaties and don't do it at all, so what kind of treaty, anyway, I haven't signed it Bai Shiqiu, it's just a piece of waste paper." ”

Treaty?

By the way, it's called the Wassenaar Agreement.

To put it simply, this agreement is to prevent us, of course, to prevent Russia, but we have been put on the Russian side by Europe and the United States, that is, a lot of high-tech weapons or other things, that is, they think they are high-tech, so they will impose embargoes on us, or various restrictions.

As soon as Bai Shiqiu talked about this agreement, this made Rebus take a direct look.

Know the ropes!

There was just someone on it before, and this Bai Shiqiu actually knew how to put this kind of thing, which is simple.

Moreover, Bai Shiqiu has his own way.

"There's a technical hurdle right now, I'm sure Mr. Lei knows it, right?"

"This ...... EUV?”

"Yes, that's it, this technology hasn't been overcome yet, and I know that many people are struggling with many technical problems here, but I think there should be a chance to succeed."

EUV is a new type of lithography machine that is suitable for particularly small ...... It's harder anyway.

It's the beginning of 2012, and at this time, EUV hasn't really been figured out.

Bai Shiqiu is not a professional, but after he investigated the information in this area, he found that this is an opportunity now!

When the need is smaller and smaller, when there is less and less NM, new technologies are needed, and EUV is now developing PR, what does that mean?

There will definitely be many losers, and there will definitely be one winner.

So, what do we do if we don't have anything on our hands now?

Bai Shiqiu's solution is......

"We're going to buy up the labs of the losers......"

When Rebus heard this, he immediately gave a thumbs up, "Clever! ”

Failure, yes, it is indeed a failure, it is all over, but we do not have it now, or in other words, the gap between our Chinese enterprises in this area is too big, then, the failed things are also useful to us, just the parameters of those experiments, as well as various failure materials, at least let us take a lot of detours.

You know, these things will be disposed of as garbage when the laboratory closes. Of course, there will also be confidential work, such as some confidential documents, which are not just put into the shredder, but also melted under the witness of a special person, and enter the paper mill with their own eyes.

But if we pay for it, that's fine, right?

Of course, we have to hide our identity.

Set up a company in the Middle East, and then let the company buy all this 'garbage' with all the employees in Europe.

When the EUV really breaks through, all the failed labs are finished, and it seems like someone is paying for their finished labs...... Of course, it will definitely not be a small amount of money, Bai Shiqiu is ready to do this with a billion dollars.

And Rebus thinks it's perfectly doable, so what else is ...... In fact, a billion dollars is not bullshit in this industry, and it cannot be done without support at the national level.

This is just the waste data of the lithography machine, and there are a lot of other things, just electricity is such a thing as a lot of effort, this is not the electricity of family life.

The 863 plan can still play a role.

The two hit it off and gave the project a name, which it called.

Pick up the broken glass ballast plan.

The name ...... The strong Northeast style of expression made Rebus can't help but say that he should learn a Northeast accent.

This made Bai Shiqiu ...... Almost the other rib fork burst.

Imagine Rebus at a briefing meeting.

ARE-YOU-OK？

It also contains the flavor of Northeast ballast...... It's exciting!
