Due to the fact that Luo Guoqing, Cao Xiaoxu and others are rampant for personal gain, the construction progress of the microelectronics research industrial park and 8-inch wafer production line has been affected to a certain extent. Fortunately, Qiao Changjiang led the project team to supervise the design and construction unit day and night to speed up the progress, and the entire production line was finally installed and debugged in early November.

After another month of staff training and trial production, on December 18, the first 8-inch wafer production line of Wenxiao Mengyang Microelectronics Technology Co., Ltd., the first unit located in the Microelectronics Research Industrial Park, was finally officially put into production.

Although the commissioning of the first 8-inch wafer production line can bring Geng Wenyang a net profit of more than one billion yuan per year, his pace will definitely not stop there, but immediately put the project of using independent technology to launch the 8-inch wafer production line on the agenda.

One day at the end of December, Geng Wenyang called Du Chengdong, Gu Shan, Yu Hong, Qiao Changjiang and Wei Yanhui to his office to discuss matters related to the independent development of 8-inch wafer production technology.

Before the launch of the wafer project in 2004, Geng Wenyang proposed that the R&D center and the Institute of Electronics organize a wafer technology project team to track and learn the 8-inch wafer production line imported from Xingzhou, and strive to build another 8-inch wafer production line independently according to the gourd drawing scoop.

To this end, he also deliberately asked Wei Yanhui to take the lead and selected capable technicians to form a circular technology project team, which is responsible for the research and development of wafer production lines with independent technology.

Now, after more than a year, with the smooth operation of the wafer production line introduced from Xingzhou, Geng Wenyang is preparing to carry out the construction project of the wafer production line with independent technology as planned.

Gu Shan, Yu Hong and others originally thought that the wafer production line with independent technology was just Geng Wenyang's words, but they didn't expect him to really put it into practice, and they couldn't help but stare at each other and panic completely. new

"Mr. Geng, we haven't fully understood the technology of the entire production line yet, so ......" Gu Shan prevaricated, "For a while, we can't do it ourselves."

Geng Wenyang said firmly: "I am a person who does what he says! Since we made a plan at the beginning of the year, we must resolutely implement it, otherwise we will not be able to accomplish anything."

He turned to Wei Yanhui and asked, "Manager Wei, how sure do you think we can do it ourselves?"

Wei Yanhui thought for a while and said, "Mr. Geng, in fact, the key to the wafer production line lies in some expensive foreign patented equipment. If we can buy these equipment, we can solve the rest in our own country."

"Oh? What are the key pieces of equipment?"

Wei Yanhui said, "The main thing is the lithography machine."

Lithography machine again! Geng Wenyang hurriedly said, "Is it the lithography machine of the Negrand company?"

"Neglan?" Wei Yanhui shook his head and said, "Negrand can also produce lithography machines? I really haven't heard of it! I'm talking about lithography machines made by small days."

The most important and expensive piece of equipment in the 8-inch wafer production line that Geng Wenyang purchased from Xingzhou is a lithography machine produced by Xiaori Enterprise, which is said to be worth tens of millions of meters when he bought it.

Wei Yanhui continued: "The lithography machine we bought in this old production line is a KRF projection lithography machine, and the minimum process can only reach 130 nanometers. The minimum process of the latest RF lithography machine developed by Xiao Ri has reached 65 nanometers, which is twice as accurate as ours."

Geng Wenyang had not been engaged in the microelectronics industry in his previous life, so he only understood the wafer manufacturing industry, but not to the extent of being proficient, so it is understandable that he was not familiar with the development process of lithography machines.

He was concerned, "Then can we buy the latest lithography machine from Xiaotian?"

"Yes, yes." Wei Yanhui said: "But it's very expensive, I heard that the price is seventy or eighty million yuan."

Geng Wenyang thought for a while and said, "People have to bow their heads under the eaves, and we can only spend money to buy things that we can't make, no matter how expensive they are. In this way, whether it is a lithography machine or other equipment that we can't do ourselves, all of them are purchased from abroad, according to this principle, can you build an 8-inch production line according to the gourd painting scoop?"

Wei Yanhui frowned in embarrassment and pondered, and Geng Wenyang took the opportunity to encourage: "If you do this, I will raise your annual salary to 200,000!" Other than that

Another 1 million special rewards for your project team!"

There is a way, and there must be a brave man under the reward. Hearing Geng Wenyang give such generous conditions, Wei Yanhui immediately decided: "Mr. Geng, since you think so highly of me, we have done this!"

"Good!" Geng Wenyang said, "Although I don't want to force you, you have to give me a time to complete the node, you can't let me wait for an indefinite time, right?"

Wei Yanhui thought for a while and said, "Our project team strives to use one year to thoroughly understand the entire production line and design the drawings, and then use another year to build a new production line."

It took one year to develop and design, and another year to purchase and build, so that the self-developed wafer production line could not be put into production in early 2008 at the earliest.

If the first self-developed wafer production line can be put into production smoothly, then in 08-09 he will arrange for two or three more wafer production lines to be put into construction. As for the funds, there is no need to worry at all, because at that time, Xinrong of Shencheng can bring him an income of about 4 billion, which is completely enough to undertake the investment in the construction of the wafer production line.

Geng Wenyang thought for a moment and said, "Okay, Manager Wei, let's execute the plan according to this point in time. I'll still say the same thing, if you complete the task on time, I will reward you greatly."

Agreeing to the R&D plan of the wafer production line in front of the chairman is tantamount to making a military order, and now Wei Yanhui has no way out, gritting his teeth and holding his neck and saying: "Please rest assured that Mr. Geng, our project team will do our best to complete the task!"

Gu Shan and Yu Hong saw that Wei Yanhui had taken on such a difficult R&D task, and they couldn't help but secretly sweat for him. Yu Hong whispered, "Principal Gu, after I go back, I have to add some more manpower to Manager Wei, otherwise he won't be busy."

"Okay!" Gu Shan nodded and said, "Recently, we have recruited a lot of 985 graduates, some of whom have graduated with master's and doctoral degrees, so we can let Manager Wei pick people from them first."

Yu Hong said, "Alas! Mr. Geng is urging urgently, and I can't get convincing results in a short time, if Manager Wei can complete the task on time, our R&D center finally has an explanation that can be taken."

Gu Shan felt the same way: "Yes! Mr. Geng didn't care about spending money on us, but he couldn't stand the opinions of other vice presidents. Our R&D center has spent a lot of money in the past few years, and if we can't get results, I think there will be a lot of pressure on Mr. Geng's side."

Yu Hong felt a deep headache and said, "Foreigners have been studying things for decades, and it is really difficult for us to come up with them in a short period of time. Especially those patents, some of which are almost unavoidable, can only be bought with money."

Hearing that she had to spend money to buy patents, Gu Shan suddenly said with a sad face: "Sister Hong, to say something unpleasant, if you spend money on buying patents again, those vice presidents will not have to jump?" If you can't buy it, try not to buy it."

"I don't want to buy it either." Yu Hong said helplessly: "But technically we can't hide from it, so we can't buy it!"

"Alas......" the two women let out a deep sigh in unison.
