Chapter 476: Convince TSMC
With two more helpers, the efficiency is not 1+1=2, but far >2.
Originally, three people could only do two sets in an hour, but now five people can do five sets in an hour.
Seeing this situation, Han Yi immediately ran out to buy materials;
Two more industrial robots were synthesized before noon.
Gasurel and Ariel, a total of six robots.
Leaving the affairs of the laboratory to Surier to take care of, Han Yi went to the wafer foundry in Jiangbei District of Jinling - "TSMC" non-stop.
Wafer foundry, in fact, is a chip manufacturing plant, similar to Foxconn in the electronics industry;
Only make chips for others, and there are no chips of your own brand.
The most powerful in this field are TSMC and TSMC, both of which are treasure island companies, and their most advanced processes can reach 7 nanometers.
Wafer factories are the most money-burning part of the chip industry.
A production line, such as TSMC's 7nm production line, needs to invest around 10 billion US dollars, an astronomical amount!
Moreover, a chip is conceived, designed, manufactured, and then made into a plan, so that it can be used in electronic products, and then pushed to the market.
The cycle takes 2 years, and even 3-5 years in the automotive field, which is too long and the risk is very high.
Han Yi didn't have the time or money to fight with these large companies with decades of technology, capital, and talent accumulation;
And it's not necessary.
At present, the global chip market can only accommodate three to four large fabs with supergenerational processes, and if there is one more, there will be insufficient orders, and all of them will go out of business at a loss.
It's like Samsung, which is obviously an opponent with Apple, but has to rush to produce chips for each other.
Isn't it ironic?
I can't help it, it's all forced.
The investment in laying the production line is too large, and there is no sufficient amount of orders, so it can only be dragged across itself.
Now, Han Yi is going to convince TSMC to let them transform the production line to match the upcoming carbon nanotransistors.
......
......
Accompanying Han Yi was the former official ape Lei Ming.
Lei Ming was transferred back from Shan Eleven by Han Yi.
"merely" an online store, which is no longer in his eyes;
If it weren't for the sake of those large warehouse distribution centers, he would have wanted to get rid of Shan Eleven now.
At present, Lei Ming is the deputy general manager of Tianyi, and his administrative level is similar to Li Tongwen;
But in terms of function, Lei Ming is one level higher than Li Tongwen.
At this time, in the back seat of Mercedes-Benz S600L, Han Yi and Lei Ming sat side by side.
Lei Ming is very strong, with a big back hair, a suit and leather shoes, full of momentum;
Han Yi sat with him, as if he was the younger brother and the other party was the big boss.
However, at this time, the "big boss's" admiration for the "little brother" is not too much to describe as the surging Yellow River.
Carbon nanotransistors, what is this concept?
At present, the whole world is in experiments, and his little boss has developed it one step ahead;
What's even more awesome is that this has begun to find foundries to prepare for production.
What a "powerful" one.
Lei Ming really wanted to open his brain to see how it grew.
"Do you know Wei Jiaze?" Han Yi asked.
Wei Jiaze is one of the current CEOs of TSMC and is rumored to be a candidate for TSMC's next CEO.
Jinling TSMC is under his control.
Lei Ming pondered for a moment and said, "I heard that I am very conceited,
And if he has been in his position for a long time, his personality should be a little ......"
Lei Ming made a gesture of "you know what I'm talking about".
Han Yi understood.
But it doesn't matter, in the face of the general trend, even TSMC has to bow his arrogant head.
No. 126, Jiangbei Development Zone.
Jinling TSMC was just put into production in September last year, with a total investment of 47 billion yuan and a monthly output of 60,000 wafers.
Some people may not understand, how can such a large investment produce 60,000 pieces?
The actual wafer diameter is divided into 150mm, 300mm and 450mm, which is commonly known as 8 inches, 12 inches and 18 inches;
The chips are then cut out by the machine.
In this way, if you compare the little bit of the big chip in the mobile phone, you will know that the monthly output of 60,000 pieces is a very large number.
TSMC VIP Reception Room.
Han Yi met Wei Jiaze,
A figure who stamped his feet, and the semiconductor industry all over the world trembled.
The other party is about 60 years old, medium build, slightly chubby, and full of silver hair looks very forced.
"Hello Mr. Wei, I have admired my name for a long time!"
"Where, Mr. Han's name is like thunder. Wei Jiaze reached out to hold Han Yi's hand and smiled politely.
After some pleasantries, the two sides sat down.
Han Yi didn't have time to figure out Wei Jiaze's thoughts, so he got straight to the point and said, "Presumably Mr. Wei already knows the purpose of our coming, right? I don't know what you mean......
Wei Jiaze leaned back on the dark yellow leather sofa, his hands crossed, and his two thumbs against each other.
To be honest, he didn't like this young man very much.
Not jealousy.
As a person who has been immersed in the semiconductor industry for half his life, he is very aware of the technical background of mainland enterprises in chips;
Not to mention this kind of company born in the wild, even if the heads of SMIC, Unigroup, and HiSilicon come over, no one has the confidence to let them TSMC transform the production line.
Who does he think he is?
"Mr. Han, this is not a matter of money or money. โ
Wei Jiaze organized the wording and continued: "Our production line has just started, and if we transform the production line now, the loss will be great." โ
Han Yi smiled.
It's not about money, it's about money.
Transforming a production line and stopping work for one day caused hundreds of millions of losses,
They are unwilling until Tianyi does not compensate them in full!
"I know it's hard for a strong man, but there's one thing you don't know......"
Han Yi paused for a moment and glanced at the tall and thin secretary diagonally opposite.
Wei Jiaze is well versed in mainland culture and said: "Han always has something to say. โ
Han Yi nodded, "Okay, I'll tell you the truth."
We at Tianyi have developed a complete carbon nanotransistor technology, which is ready to start production. โ
"What...... What are you talking about?" Han Yi said a sentence, which made the CEO of TSMC stand up in shock.
Compared with Lei Ming, the impact of "carbon nanotransistor" on Wei Jiaze is stronger and more shocking, and the shock is beyond measure.
Even, he thought that he had auditory hallucinations, and what Han Yi was talking about just now was not "carbon nanotransistors", but "carbon nanotechnology".
Are you kidding.
Carbon nanotransistors!
Theoretically, it performs 5 times better than silicon, in other words, it consumes 5 times less energy than silicon transistors if used in a device.
Once in use, it is possible to develop more powerful processors, faster wireless communications, and more battery life for portable devices.
The benefits are simply numerous.
Now whoever can be the first to master carbon nanotransistor technology, he will be the next overlord in the semiconductor industry!
Wei Jiaze looked at Han Yi in a daze, and asked again, "What did you just say...... Carbon nanotransistors?"
Han Yi stroked the Jingdezhen porcelain cup on the tea table and affirmed: "Yes! โ
"Impossible!" Wei Jiaze didn't believe it at all, and said bluntly: "Even IBM hasn't been able to solve the impurity problem, how can you Tianyi do it?"
Wei Jiaze's disbelief, or contempt, failed to anger Han Yi.
Tianyi and TSMC are not at the same level at all, and people have reason to look down on you.
If the chairman of IBM and Intel told Wei Jiaze that they had mastered carbon nanotransistor technology, Wei Jiaze promised that he would not be as surprised as he is now.
In the end, it's still not enough!
Han Yi stood up and took out his mobile phone, opened a video and handed it to Wei Jiaze, "Mr. Wei, please see, this is a video of the separation process of atomic layer impurities that I filmed when I came." โ
Wei Jiaze took the letter and passed the suspicion.
In the video, tens of thousands of layers of carbon atoms are oscillating at an ultra-high frequency;
The impurities represented by ะด and attached to the epidermis and gaps of the atomic layer are arranged neatly as if they have heard some kind of greeting, and they are detached from the edges;
Words simply can't express the excitement of people in the travel industry when they see this picture.
Wei Jiaze opened his mouth, dumbfounded, and asked in a trembling tone, "Is this...... This...... How the hell is that?"
Han Yi can understand his mood very well.
It's like an aunt who sets up a stall at the entrance of the vegetable market, turning around and driving a Porsche to swagger through the market in front of you;
The kind of spiritual impact that subverts the three views, you know what it feels like if you think about it.
Han Yi explained: "This is an overclocking resonator that we have developed, which can remove impurities from the transistor through a certain algorithm resonance. โ
This video is a simulation of Souliel.
But just look at Wei Jiaze's expression at this time, it's enough.
The CEO of TSMC took a long time to come back to his senses and pleaded: "Mr. Han, can you copy this video to me?"
You can rest assured that it will not be leaked without your consent. โ
Han Yi knew that he was going to show the big boss Zhang Zhongmiao.
I readily agreed.
The purpose of recording this video was originally to show Zhang Zhongmiao.
Five minutes later, Han Yi got up and said goodbye.
