Chapter 282: Preparing for a showdown
Zhang San, a well-known extralegal fanatic!
Thinking of Zhou Zhen here, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch a little.
To be honest, he didn't expect Zhang Wei to recommend such a talent!
What is most important in the 21st century, of course, is talent.
And Zhang Wei in front of him and the senior brother Zhang San that Zhang Wei said in his mouth are basically talents in the legal circle!
In Zhou Zhen's view, these two people are the sleeping dragons and phoenixes in the entire industry.
And Zhou Zhen was fortunate to get the help of these two Wolong Phoenix Chicks, which was simply too lucky for Zhou Zhen.
As the so-called Wolong and phoenix chicks have to settle the world.
And now Zhou Zhen has Wolong and Phoenix Chick, and he can rely on the two of them to stab global technology companies.
"I have admired Lawyer Zhang San's name for a long time, please be sure to invite Lawyer Zhang San over!"
Zhou Zhen stood up with a heavy face at this time, and said to Zhang Wei in an extremely excited tone.
Zhang Wei saw that Zhou Zhen valued himself and his senior brother so much, and also said that he would try his best to fight with these technology companies with his senior brother.
Juchang, HiSilicon!
As one of the first technology companies in China to have ice engraving machines, HiSilicon has been making every effort to research and develop semiconductor technologies in the past few years.
In the past, HiSilicon Semiconductor had an unparalleled position and was an outstanding presence in the entire industry.
However, after experiencing corresponding setbacks, HiSilicon has gradually shifted the field of chip design to the field of semiconductor foundry, striving to become a semiconductor technology company that independently develops and produces itself.
Now that you have the corresponding equipment, it is still difficult to really break through the corresponding process difficulties.
Chrysanthemum factory, in this regard, can be said to have invested a lot of money, want to rely on the current technology to rely on the corresponding research and development and capital investment to make a breakthrough.
Unfortunately, after nearly half a year and more than 150 billion yuan, HiSilicon is still stuck in the 14nm process.
Although the performance of the corresponding chips is still remarkable, there is still a very big gap between the top processor chips at present.
Yuzhen Semiconductor, the recent rise of the matter has also received the attention of many technology companies, not only international technology companies attach great importance to this matter, but even domestic technology companies also attach great importance to this.
"It seems that the current Yuzhen Semiconductor has basically reached the most advanced level in the industry, and it can completely produce the corresponding 5nm process processor chips on a large scale!"
"At present, our company needs to learn from each other, and at the same time, we still need to place corresponding product orders for this!"
"While pursuing the progress of production, we cannot let go of the progress of design!"
HiSilicon still attaches great importance to this matter, and Yuzhen Semiconductor has now successfully reached the top level in the field of chip foundry.
This is worthy of HiSilicon's corresponding learning and narrowing the gap through corresponding learning.
On the other hand, the current HiSilicon Kirin processor has been completely stopped for nearly two years, and the current HiSilicon Kirin can take advantage of this opportunity to let Yuzhen Semiconductor help with foundry again.
Although the current four-nanometer process technology has basically become the mainstream of the flagship, the gap between the four-nanometer and the five-nanometer gap is not very obvious to be honest.
HiSilicon engineers even took out a drawing that had been sealed for a long time.
HiSilicon Kirin 9100 processor chip!
Although HiSilicon Kirin's processor chips have not been able to achieve corresponding OEM production, the corresponding HiSilicon Kirin team has never stopped designing processor chips.
Now Yuzhen Semiconductor now has processor chips that can be made at a correspondingly lower level, which allows the design team of HiSilicon Kirin chips to see the opportunity for the company to return to glory.
However, the chrysanthemum factory is still a little worried about production capacity.
The current Yuzhen Semiconductor is obviously surrounded by other technology companies, and has suffered from the restrictions of the other party in terms of corresponding raw materials.
Even in terms of the corresponding future OEM production, there will be a certain degree of limited development in terms of production capacity!
The other party may be able to help this company OEM produce the corresponding processor chips, but whether it can be mass-produced will be a very headache.
HiSilicon's executives are worried, but they really can't really give up on the OEM production of their own chips.
Even if the other party's production capacity is insufficient, HiSilicon is still willing to spend a lot of money on tape-out production, so that the designed processor chip can be truly launched with the world.
It's just that the corresponding reply from Yuzhen Semiconductor really made the whole HiSilicon a little stunned!
I can produce it! And it can help the other party to OEM tens of millions of chips.
It's just that the corresponding foundry fee is more expensive.
After all, the design and corresponding production process of the current Yuzhen Semiconductor are the best in the industry.
A slightly more expensive price is acceptable for HiSilicon!
"Could it be that the layout of Yuzhen Semiconductor in the past few years has developed to such a high level? Large-scale production can be realized, is it possible that a large amount of silicon materials have been stored in recent years? ”
Even the current HiSilicon Kirin team thinks that Yuzhen Semiconductor is taking precautions, and has long expected the blows they will suffer, and is even fully prepared to face these blows.
As a result, HiSilicon began to discuss with Yuzhen Semiconductor about chip tape-out production.
After almost a week of negotiations, the chip production capacity was finally set at 12 million pieces.
In addition to the cost of tape-out, HiSilicon needs to support Yuzhen Semiconductor with a cost of 6 billion yuan, and the average OEM production cost of each chip reaches 500 yuan.
This price is also relatively high in the industry, you must know that the current average cost of TSMC's chips for OEM is basically less than 400.
After signing the relevant contract.
Yuzhen Semiconductor also said that it will start the official tape-out in early March this year, and strive to deliver the chips to HiSilicon in two batches by October this year.
At the same time, HiSilicon also expressed its desire to send its own employees to Yuzhen Semiconductor for corresponding study and further education.
Zhou Zhen naturally understood HiSilicon's thoughts.
After all, Yuzhen Semiconductor is currently the most powerful company with core technology in the entire semiconductor field, which can not only design top processor chips, but also have certain advantages in the corresponding chip foundry production field.
HiSilicon came to learn from Yuzhen Semiconductor, most likely because it wanted to learn the corresponding experience and strive to add its own chip foundry process to a new level as soon as possible.
Zhou Zhen did not refuse the other party's request, after all, the current Yuzhen Semiconductor also lacks employees and talents.
It is also a good thing that the other party is willing to send professionals to work for them.
Although the other party can take the opportunity of this work to learn accordingly, some corresponding core technologies will be firmly grasped by Zhou Zhen in his own hands.
For example, the corresponding new materials, new core architecture and other processes.
Although the other party said that he could take this opportunity to learn something, the deepest thing was always in Zhou Zhen's hands.
Perhaps the other party can take this opportunity to increase the strength of their own company, but it has never been able to surpass the mountain of Yuzhen Semiconductor.
At the same time, Zhou Zhen also hopes to take this opportunity to establish a corresponding competitor for himself, after all, the current company is too strong and is easy to suffer from some corresponding supervision.
Only by creating an opponent for yourself can you continue to survive in the corresponding complex environment.
The time is also at the beginning of March, and Yuzhen Semiconductor has officially held a new technology summit!
This technology summit can be said to invite companies from the entire technology industry to participate in this technology summit.
The performance of Yuzhen Semiconductor at the beginning of this year can be said to have attracted the attention of many manufacturers, and even in the eyes of many manufacturers, this year's Yuzhen Semiconductor is really a strong horror.
It not only brings the corresponding changes in the products of the entire industry, but also brings many new amazing processor chip designs.
However, some manufacturers are worried that this time Yuzhen Semiconductor is just a flash in the pan.
After all, after the corresponding material control, Yuzhen Semiconductor will reduce the production capacity of chip foundry.
The reduction of production capacity in the entire chip field also means that Yuzhen Semiconductor can no longer supply corresponding products to other manufacturers on a large scale.
And this time, although the manufacturers of the technology branch know that Yuzhen may have a new technological breakthrough this time, there are probably not many benefits that can be brought to other manufacturers.
But even so, manufacturers are not willing to miss this opportunity, perhaps, this time the technical branch will have some surprises.
At the same time, Yuzhen Semiconductor also said that this technology summit will be broadcast live to allow all netizens to witness this technology summit.
"Technology summit, technology alone but can't produce the corresponding products on a large scale, what is this called a technology summit!"
"In my opinion, this is nothing more than a joke that makes people laugh!"
Other international technology companies also expressed their disdain for this after learning about such a thing.
In their eyes, Feather Shock Semiconductor is like a tiger with its claws and teeth cut off, and can only yell at them, but cannot hurt them.
After all, these core technologies cannot produce products, so it will not be possible to seize the market with other technology companies, which means that even if Yuzhen Semiconductor is strong, it is not to be afraid.
